About Us

About the Signal Awards

The Signal Awards are mission-focused on uplifting the podcast medium by recognizing the most potent, meaningful and unprecedented audio projects being made today. Now in its third year, entrants to The Signal Awards are reviewed by The Signal Awards Judging Academy, an esteemed collective made up of the architects, instigators and trailblazers of the medium. Once a year, The Academy collectively listens closely to thousands of hours of audio, selecting the strongest work to be elevated to the status of award-winning.

Each year, The Signal Awards presents Gold, Silver and Bronze winners, and the listening public votes for their favorite Finalists to take home the additional honor of Listener’s Choice Award in each category. Garnering more than 170,000 public votes in just two weeks from nearly 75,000 fans around the world, this year’s Listener’s Choice Awards drew the largest voting body in The Signal Awards’ three-history, reaffirming the growing prevalence that podcasts and their creators have in listeners’ life patterns and daily routines. The Signal Awards set a standard for editorial excellence by honoring the organizations, artists, mavericks, brands and storytellers who are shaping the podcast industry.

Winners announced on October 29th, 2024.
