Believe it or not, we're bad at stuff. And this is the tip of the iceberg...

You might be shocked to discover this, but we are, on occasion, bad at stuff. Today we talk about it in order to sound humble and relatable.

Things We're Bad At

Michael Scott visits the VO Breakfast Show Studio

Michael Scott visited the VO Breakfast Show studio to talk to Carin about how he manages to balance an incredibly busy schedule. He is an awesome voice talent and director, in addition to being an educator and advisory board member. We honestly don't know how he does it all, and at such a ludicrously high level!

It's a multi-generational show

It's a multi-generational show today, mainly due to a scheduling snafu, but whatever, us young people are chill so we did the episode anyway.

How does one "Get Better" at voiceover? 

How do you get better at voiceover? What does it even look like? What even bloody IS better? Well, we don't know either, but that's not going to stop us from wanging on about it for an hour.

Getting Better

What makes a good voiceover website, and what do we think of Paul Stefano's website?

Websites

It's 2026, what's on your vision board? What even is a vision board? We find out here...

It's the start of 2026 and so what are we doing? We're doing vision boards of course! What is a vision board I hear you ask? Well, Carin explains...

Vision Boards

Burnout, shaking, Amazon, headshots, we're all over the map this week!

The NAVA Gala is upon us! If you're attending live, lucky you. And if not, join the fun virtually on Friday December 12th! Carin talks about the insane amount of planning that goes into it (don't ask her about food preferences) and we try to determine her breaking point. We also cover plugins, playback on Zoom, the Amazon debacle, pictures on websites, and a bunch more other things that I can't remember right now.

Shenanigans

What could be more appropriate than talking about the voiceover COMMUNITY, on a solo pod?

How important is community in voiceover? Well I'd argue, very! Particularly if you don't live in a major media hub where there are regular VO events, and it's tough for you to fly to conferences. Join me (Jamie) as I take on this subject solo (ironic much???), discussing the challenging ins and outs of navigating voiceover on your own.

Breakfast Bite Special: Community

Do you have to move to NY/LA/London... to truly succeed in VO?

Do you have to move to NY/LA/London... to truly succeed in VO? In this episode we not only attempt to answer this question, but we change the question itself! We're just THAT good.

Two voice actors talk about voiceover. Not ideal for those who aren't interested in voice acting.

Join hosts Carin Gilfry and Jamie Muffett as they chat about all things voiceover, in this unplanned, possibly ill-advised, breakfast show podcast! Guests, competitions, call-ins and more. If you're looking for something to listen to over your morning pancakes and coffee, and you're interested in voiceover, this is the show for you!
