In 2020, 116 podcasts were nominated for awards. Winners included The Gravy Train, Dark Poutine, Diabetes Canada Podcast and On a Dark Cold Night.
“Being recognized for a Canadian Podcast Award comes with a sense of pride that your peers, the community you lookup to, feel that you deserve to be here for the work you do,” said Lauren Marinigh of Somebody Date Us, winner of Best Adult Podcast, 2020.
