House of Pod presents…

The second annual COLORADO PODCAST AWARDS!

In the past few years, Colorado’s podcast community has grown by leaps and bounds. We’ve seen independent creators embark on new, ambitious series. We’ve seen radio stations allocate significant resources and talent to podcasts. We’ve seen passionate fan bases born and grow. And more than anything, we’ve HEARD some really amazing local podcasts. We at House of Pod believe it’s time to recognize all that terrific work with what we hope will become an annual tradition.

In this stage, we are accepting nominations for any podcast, episode, or podcaster in five categories. This first stage is open to nominations from anyone: you do not have to have made a podcast in your life. You just have to be able to type the name of a show, episode, podcaster as they appear on Apple Podcasts/Spotify/RSS into the form below!
