Don't miss ADWEEK House at Cannes, June 16-19. Join us as we celebrate our 45th anniversary and explore the industry's now and next. RSVP.
Until you’ve launched a podcast, you have no idea how much time, effort, heartache and hustle goes into the process. Three years ago when we launched Adweek’s first podcast, Yeah, That’s Probably an Ad, I learned this firsthand and developed a deep, enduring appreciation for the people behind great audio programming.
That’s why I’m so proud to announce the Adweek Podcast of the Year Awards, a new program honoring today’s best shows and most innovative podcast professionals.
Judged by a diverse jury of professionals with direct podcasting experience at all levels, the Adweek Podcast of the Year Awards celebrate the best in informative audio, regardless of audience size or budget.
If you work on a podcast that deserves to be honored on a global stage—or know a professional who should be honored in our inaugural roster of the industry’s best hosts, executives, innovators, producers and editors—I encourage you to check out this new awards program.

And while Adweek’s own podcasts aren’t eligible to win, I hope you’ll give them a follow and review on Apple Podcasts! Our current lineup includes:
Yeah, That’s Probably an Ad: Adweek’s weekly podcast about the top marketing news and trends, featuring a panel of writers, editors, content producers and other Adweek staffers. Launched in 2016 and nearing its 150th episode (with an average review score of 4.8 out of 5 on Apple Podcasts), it was named 2018’s Best Podcast by the Folio Digital Awards.
CMO Moves: Adweek chief community officer Nadine Dietz hosts this podcast of conversations with some of the marketing world’s brightest and most inspiring minds. Dietz’s company, CMO Moves LLC, was acquired by Adweek in January 2019, and today she oversees a wide range of community-driven content with Adweek’s Inside the Brand.
