S2E42: “Read the room” with Shaina Tinnell

The Broad Pod

There is no argument, that on this episode, we have our coolest Broad yet. Shaina Tinnell, known to many as DJ SHAY, grew up right outside of Owensboro in Maceo, KY. Basketball and softball were the center of her life as a teenager. After graduating from Daviess County High School, she studied Psychology at the University of Louisville. From international destinations to countless music festivals, traveling has always been a big part of Shaina’s life. When a friend saw social media posts of her at festivals, he suggested she look into DJing. One opportunity led to another and now DJ SHAY is one of the most popular DJs in our area. Shaina is also our first Broad who is a member of the LGBTQ community. Hear how Shaina has navigated her identity in a small town and as a public figure and about how another overbooked DJ helped get her unexpected career started.
