<p>In this episode, we had the pleasure of interviewing three senior students from the Centre for Doctoral Training in Speech and Language Technologies, University of Sheffield: George Close, Mary Hewitt and Tom Pickard. Drawing from their personal experience, they shared valuable insights on how to navigate conferences without getting exhausted, along with recounting their most memorable and unexpected moments.</p>

#8.7 SpeechPitch @ UK Speech 2023 - Episode #8: Story Behind the Scene - Joys and Challenges for Conference Volunteers

Speech Pitch is ISCA-SAC's (Student Advisory Committee of the International Speech Communication Association) new podcast! Throughout the episodes, we will interview different guests, mostly from the speech community, in an informal setting. We want to get to know their work, their stories and their ideas for the future.
This podcast is hosted by PhD students in speech, with no experience in podcasts, but with the hope that it can bring the students and the entire speech community closer together, especially in pandemic times where we lack presencial conferences and other social interactions. We will try to have a new episode every 2 or 3 months. We hope you enjoy listening to it, and stay tuned!
