Podcast kings Peter Dunne (left) and Liam Geraghty
Last night.
Irish podcasters Peter Dunne and Liam Geraghty achieved a double win at the 2019 New York Festivals Radio Awards.
Peter and Liam took home the Bronze trophy in the Best Drama Podcast category for their horror anthology series Petrified.
Liam then won Bronze for Best Culture Podcast for Meet Your Maker – a show ‘about the people who make the things we love’.
In fairness.

So, an award for practically anyone who entered then?
What have you won lately, Eoin? Other than the contempt of the majority of BS users?
Even that’s a fix. They’ve culled several contenders
Methinks someone didn’t get his nomination for ‘Best copy & paster’…
Delighted for them. RTE, with all their resources and our licence fee money, came away with a bunch (about 30, I think, including a couple for Documentary on One, which I guess is most related to podcasts). Pro Rata, I think these guys did better, and delighted to see them being recognised for their work.
Keep it up!
These “awards” are pretty much meaningless. You have to pay 200 to 300 dollars just to enter. And then to get your award you have to pay them again. There appears to be an award for everything.
RTE seems to enter 100’s each year, and they’re regularly named broadcaster of the year??? So they’re better than the BBC?
Great use of the licence fee.
