2006 Podcast Awards - Results

The results for the 2006 Podcast Awards contest were announced late yesterday and the list of nearly all winners posted. FIR was a contender for the Best Business Podcast Award - but we didn’t win.

Winner of this category was Manager Tools, a weekly podcast focused on helping you become a more effective manager and leader, hosted by Mark Horstman and Michael Auzenne. A worthy competitor and a worthy winner.

We don’t know how FIR fared in the contest as voting details haven’t been published. What we do know is that, overall, the awards site received just under 8 million hits during July and August. That’s a lot of hits!

We would like to thank everyone who voted for FIR. We greatly appreciate your support.

Winners of the two top-level categories - People’s Choice and Best Produced Podcast - will be announced during the Podcast and Portable Media Expo late next month (Shel and Neville will be speaking at that event).

Warm congratulations to all the winners!

  1. Feel free to ignore me on this one, but I find the background music you are mixing on the news segment of the show for a few weeks now pretty annoying. I am always doing something else when listening to my podcasts (like shopping, driving, or reading blogs or emails) and for some reason the music thing totally throws me off!

  2. Jeff, if you’re specifically thinking about show #163 on Monday, the MP3 did have a big problem with that background sound. Too loud, in other words.

    Fixed and replacement file uploaded.

    Hardly hear that music now :)

  3. Whatever the vote outcome, I think you’re the best business podcast out there! To me, it feels like a community coming together with FIR as facilitator!
