So, Podcast of the year was won by Nova for Modern Babies by Genea, but isn’t that an advertorial? Not trying to be bitchy, but surely the Podcast of the year category, should be for editorially-focused Podcasts? I’m sure the product is good, but just wondering if it’s in the right category…? If someone could clarify, that would be appreicated

Hi Matt,

Thanks for the question. Brand-funded content is eligible, and indeed welcome.

I’m sure that if the podcast category becomes more popular (as I suspect it will) there may be a time in the future where we split it, rather like we split business mags, consumer mags, custom mags etc.

Cheers,
