Returning for its fourth annual edition, the Acast-powered ceremony will celebrate the nation’s best podcasting on July 11 with a virtual event.
Earlier today (May 19), the 2020 nominees were unveiled by film and TV critic Rhianna Dhillon via a special stream on the official British Podcast Awards’ website. The list was put together by over 50 judges, including 2019 winner George The Poet.
Jessie Ware is up for the Spotlight Award for her Table Manners podcast, going up against My Dad Wrote A Porno, The Guilty Feminist and more. BBC Radio 1’s Greg James, meanwhile, is featured in the Best Live Episode category with Tailenders, the cricket podcast he hosts with former Maccabees member Felix White and England bowler Jimmy Anderson.
Elsewhere, George Ezra is up for the Best Entertainment Podcast for George Ezra & Friends. In that same category is Off Menu with Ed Gamble and James Acaster.
You can see the full list of nominations below.
Reviewing Tailenders in his Podcasts For The People blog last year, NME‘s Greg Cochrane wrote: “Tailenders is a podcast about cricket⊠loosely. I mean, it brings cricket to people like me who donât know a googly from a jaffa. It doesnât matter, Tailenders â with expert insight, running jokes and an overall theme of inclusivity â makes the whole culture feel like a club you wonât want to leave.”
