“Like Nothing I’ve Ever Heard or Watched Before!”

“The Best New Crime Drama (And It’s Not on TV)!”

“The podcast we’ve been waiting for!”

Can you guess which popular pod these very enthusiastic reviews are referring to? I’ll give you a hint…you eat it for breakfast. 

Hey everybody, it’s Ginni here with another tasty bowl of PodPops for your morning enjoyment. And today, we’re talking about…Serial! 

But… not the kind you eat for breakfast. That was just a hint, remember?

The award-winning Serial with an “S” that first graced our ears back in 2014. 

Why? Because the Ambie’s Podcast Awards have bestowed upon their team a great honor. 

Last week, co-creators Sarah Koenig and Julia Snyder accepted The Ambie’s Board of Governors Award in recognition of the impact that Serial has had on the podcasting industry. 

In 2014, we were well acquainted with what it meant to binge a series on Netflix, but the whole “bingeing a podcast” thing wasn’t on anyone’s radar until that first season of Serial. 

So, today, let’s raise a cup of coffee to the cultural audio phenomenon that helped bring podcasting where it is today. 

Cheers! And congratulations on well-deserved recognition, Serial! 

Thanks for joining me, and tune in tomorrow for Wednesday’s PodGuide!
