Welcome to the DREAM BABY DREAM podcast. My name is Taylah Clements, and I talk all things life, acting, creative industries, mental health and just how to get by. Total disclaimer: I am not an industry professional, far from successful right now, but I feel I have a lot to chat about.
CASTING - Behind the Scenes PART 2 with Dave Newman
WE'RE BACK! Well, sort of. I'm back, TC, Taylah here. SO sorry we kind of disappeared, I'd like to say it was worth the wait? But I guess you guys will be the judge of that.
I explain a little why AC isn't with me in this Ep, but more importantly, we finally are releasing our much awaited interview with Dave Newman of McSweeney Newman Casting.
This was such a fun fun interview, Dave is so charismatic and just a brilliant guy. We hope you love this chat as much as we did.
This is it for Dream Baby Dream for 2022, but I WILL be back next year.
Thank you all for the amazing support this year, I've genuinely loved hearing how the pod has helped different people in different ways, and that's why I love it.
See you in 2023, and Keep Dreaming.

Hey Dreamers!! Hope you all had a lovely weekend. We are back today chatting with literal superwoman Tenille, about her life and experience as an actor.

CASTING - Behind the Scenes with Tom McSweeney
"What are you nervous about? You've already won, you're getting to do the thing you claim you say you love to do."
Hey Dreamers! We are SO excited to bring you this episode, with the one and only Tom McSweeney! Tom is one of Australia's most profound Casting Directors, and we had the opportunity to sit down with him and pick his brain about all things CASTING. It was a bumpy road to release this episode (we explain in the ep, but there were tears involved) but we're FINALLY here, and boy, it was worth the wait.
We love Tom so much, he's everyone's biggest supporter and we absolutely love it. We hope you all learn something and get something inspiring out of this ep, we definitely left the room feeling motivated to create.
There's no Artist of the Week this week, as we wanted to delve into Tom as much as possible.
If you want to take classes with Tom, he teaches at the Warehouse Workshop Screen Acting Studio @warehouseworkshop on Instagram.
We hope you love it, thanks guys. Keep Dreaming x

BONUS EPISODE - Taylah's Tumour
Hey Dreamers! Taylah here. This one is a big one for me! We've decided to release a bonus episode to give you guys a bit of an insight into ME. We've never really spoken about ourselves - it's always been us interviewing other people.
In this episode I chat a bit about a health problem I had a few years ago, called Cushings Disease, I won't go too much into it here, go listen to the episode!
Follow our Instagram @dreambabypodcast where I will upload photos of the physical effects the tumour had on me (pls be kind).
I've never publicly spoken about this time in my life, so I hope you all enjoy the episode, it was a tough one!
Oh, and also, our Artist of the Week this week is.... Also me! Please note that singing is NOT my strength, but given the episode is about me, we figured why not.
