Entrants had up to 10 minutes to wow the judging panel in any of the following categories.

There’s no restriction on what genre or ‘type’ of podcast can enter each category – as we often say, you don’t have to be a comedy podcast to create a hilarious moment of podcasting gold. Fiction, non-fiction, narrative, interview, panel discussion, investigative journalism or anything else: all are welcome, and we always look forward to hearing the work submitted.
