Description

Last night the great and the glorious in podcasting gathered not around microphones but tables to attend the sold-out British Podcast Awards 2024, presented by Campaign in partnership with Wondery, Audible, Global, Podcast Discovery and YouTube.


From Rylan Clark and Scott Mills to Greg James and the Whitehalls, celebs and independent podcasters alike assembled in London to celebrate the best in the business.


In this episode, Lucy Shelley, tech editor at Campaign, and Adam Shepherd, editor of the British Podcast Awards, talk through the event, its highlights and winners as well as the bittersweet moments including a moving tribute to late broadcaster and health expert Dr. Michael Mosley, whose podcast Just One Thing won this year’s Hall of Fame award.


Backstage at the awards, we chat to some of the winners including The News Agents, YouTube's head of podcasts, and Tortoise Media. We discuss what podcasting brings to news journalism, if a video podcast counts a podcast, and where we're going next for podcasts.


Check out the full list of winners – which include The Rest Is Politics and Help I Sexted My Boss – here.


This episode includes interviews with:

  • The News Agents hosts Emily Maitlis, Jon Soper and Lewis Goodall
  • YouTube's head of podcasts Sandy Wilheim
  • Good Bad Billionaire hosts Simon Jack and Zing Tsjeng
  • Tortoise Media producer Rebecca Moore and voice of the Sensemaker podcast Tomini Babs
