The British Podcast Awards<\/a> 2021 (powered by Amazon Music<\/a>), the biggest night in the podcasting calendar, are on their way and they need your help!<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

Each and every week this newsletter picks out the best of British podcasts, with many of the suggestions put forward by you, but we know from reading all of your emails and messages that many of you love listening to podcasts from all over the world.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

So the British Podcast Awards have asked us this year to help choose the shortlist for the Best International Podcast. Your suggestion can be any podcast you like: news, entertainment, comedy, fiction, storytelling. All you have to do is head to here<\/a> <\/strong>and tell us your favourite (the only rule they have set is that the podcast must have released an episode between the 1st February 2020 and the 31st January 2021).<\/p>\n\n\n\n

If you have got your own British podcast and want it to be submitted for the awards this year, all you need to do is head to the British Podcast Awards<\/a> website for the rules and info. The public vote – the Listeners\u2019 Choice, supported by BBC Sounds, will also return in May. Look out for a special edition<\/strong> of the newsletter with all the nominees (including your international picks) later in the year! <\/p>\n\n\n\n
