We are joined by the amazing Brian Patacca talking about the BUSINESS side of Acting.

Brian is a life coach who helps actors get what they want without all the struggle. He’s helped 724 actors find representation and is even known as “The Representation Whisperer.

Through his wildly popular online courses (Audition Magnet® and #agentgoals®) and entertaining podcast, Brian teaches actors how to market themselves authentically, use gratitude to open doors, and make more money.

His coaching clients include Tony Award-winners, Broadway stars, Series Regulars, filmmakers, writers, and stand-up comedians. He proves that when they follow their purpose instead of playing by a tired set of industry rules (read: limiting beliefs), they can skip the drama, generate momentum, and build excitement around who they are and what they love to do the mostest.

As Spring arrives, Grace and Tom look at how to find and keep motivation.

Social media is becoming a bigger and bigger part of the actors toolkit. Whether that be Instagram, X or TikTok. We were so lucky to have Olivia and Sim to come and talk to us about how to get started creating your own content and how to promote yourself via different platforms. Both guests give a different insight with Olivia being a presenter for red carpet events such as the BAFTA's and Sim who has built a big and engaged audience on Instagram as a beauty and hair stylist.



You can look up our wonderful guest on Instagram @simsagoo and @oliverosalindsmith
They also run a podcast called 'Chai and Crumpets' which is available to watch and listen on Spotify and Apple Podcast.

From Toms home town, Liverpool, Finn Browning is here to talk about camera operating and what the crew get up to behind the scenes of some very big budget projects. Finn shares some tips on how to make a great impression on set AND some camera knowledge that all actors should know.

Theatre Producing! Grace and Tom have sheepishly admitted that they do not know what a theatre producer does. Luckily they have Maddie Parker, an established theatre producer to help them. This week we learn how to approach producers, build a network and even conversation starters to help you at social events.

Some people are Actors, some Directors. Others are Singers or Movement Directors. This weeks guest is all of the above. Join us as we learn about skills and being able to understand creativity from every angle. We may even pick up a skill or two ourselves - but it's unlikely!

This week Grace and Tom are joined by Jay O'Connell, whose worked across the voiceover industry in ADR, ELT, animation, corporate and commercial. And if like us you're not sure what all of that means maybe this is a good podcast for you. Join us as we try to work out the finer points that lead to 'silly' money.

Back from a Christmas break, Grace and Tom are ready to make some resolutions for the year ahead.
