Special bonus ep: All you need to know about the Australian Audio Awards  

In this special edition of the Radio Today podcast, Jen Seyderhelm tells you how to enter the new Australian Audio Awards and gets the lowdown on all the behind-the-scenes moves which led to their launch.

Steve Ahern’s advice? Start thinking about your entry now: “While you’re preparing your Christmas best-of content, put aside some material to use in your audio entry.”

Steve also explains to Jen all the preparation that led to the awards announcement: “We have thought about the importance of radio and podcasting to Australia, so part of the judging criteria will include impact and how your work has helped to build the Australian audio industry.”

“These will be part of all the other judging criteria you would expect for an entry.”

Mumbrella Founder Tim Burrowes said: “When Steve and I realised we were both working on similar ideas, it made sense to work together … the audio sector in Australia is collegiate, so we’re glad to work together on creating a ceremony that Australia’s audio industry deserves.”
