The Podcast Academy has announced two, new, international awards will be handed out at The Podcast Show in London this week.

The International Governor’s Award goes to Steven Bartlett from FlightStory’s chart-topping Diary of a CEO, which has “elevated podcasting as a medium for insight, vulnerability, and meaningful dialogue”, said Christy Mirabal, the chairperson of TPA.

The International Impact Award goes to James Cridland, the Editor of Podnews, who Mirabal said has been “a global voice for the podcast industry, tirelessly advocating for its growth, innovation, and sustainability”.
