Acast shows dominate the British Podcast Awards
More than half of the 72 winners are part of the Acast Creator Network
The 2020 British Podcast Awards results are in — and it was an incredible night for Acast Creator Network podcasts. Our shows scooped 15 of the 25 Gold awards on offer, and 38 of the total 72 awards that were up for grabs — not to mention taking all three Gold, Silver and Bronze awards in the Best Daily Podcast category.
Gold winners included Sh**ged. Married. Annoyed., The Log Books, the Guardian’s Today in Focus, Brown Girls Do It Too, and Tunnel 29 from the BBC — chosen by a panel of podcasting experts, alongside votes cast by listeners. We’re lucky to work with the best creators in the world, and could not be prouder of the recognition so many of them received at the British Podcast Awards.
We make all Acast Creator Network podcasts available to listeners wherever and whenever they choose — across any and every podcast platform, app or device — and help monetize those listens globally through sponsorship and advertising.
