    EPISODE 34 - Matthew McGivern - Finding Our Feet

    Hello you lovely people! This is our 34th episode of the 'Finding Our Feet' Podcast! This week on Finding Our Feet, we’re joined by actor Matthew McGivern for a really honest conversation about life in the industry after training! We chat about going from the same college course to landing a two-year run on Hollyoaks, what working on a major soap actually taught him, and the reality of navigating the industry once the excitement of drama school wears off.
