Anticipation Builds as Futurehand Media Awaits Podcast Award Results

Tomorrow evening marks a significant moment here at Futurehand Media, as two of our productions within the WithAI FM™ podcast network have been named finalists in the Science & Technology category at the Independent Podcast Awards!

Among a total of seven podcasts nominated, “Creatives WithAI™,” hosted by David Brown, and “Women WithAI™,” hosted by Joanna Shilton, stand out as strong contenders.

The Independent Podcast Awards are a prestigious annual event that celebrates creativity, talent, and hard work in the independent podcasting community.

Recognising excellence across various genres, the awards highlight podcasts that demonstrate outstanding content, production quality, and audience engagement. Being nominated is a testament to the dedication and innovation that independent podcasters bring to the medium.

David, the Founder and Creative Director of Futurehand Media, expressed his pride in the company’s achievements.

“Having two of our shows recognised at this level is incredibly rewarding,” he said. “It’s a testament to the hard work and passion of our entire team. We are honoured to be listed alongside such innovative podcasts that are making meaningful contributions to the science and technology community.”

 

“Creatives WithAI™” explores the intersection of artificial intelligence and the creative industries, delving into how AI is transforming art, music, writing, and more. Now hosted by Lena Robinson, the show features insightful conversations with experts, innovators, and artists who are at the forefront of this exciting field. The podcast aims to shed light on the possibilities that AI brings to creativity, inspiring listeners to envision new horizons.

On the other hand, “Women WithAI™,” hosted by Joanna Shilton, highlights the contributions of women in the field of artificial intelligence and the impact AI will have on women in the workplace. The podcast shares stories, challenges, and successes of women who are shaping the future of AI. Joanna’s interviews provide a platform for voices that are often underrepresented, fostering a community that encourages diversity and inclusion in technology.

The nomination of both shows underscores our commitment to producing high-quality content that informs, inspires, and engages listeners. It also reflects our dedication to amplifying diverse voices and perspectives within the science and technology sectors.

Winning this award would be a monumental achievement for Futurehand Media as an organisation. Not only would it highlight the quality of our original content, but also enhance our reputation as an award-winning production company. This recognition will be beneficial for all our current (and future) clients, affirming that they are partnering with a team committed to excellence.

“Winning would be a significant milestone for us,” David stated. “It would validate the hard work we’ve put into these shows and signal to our clients and partners that we’re dedicated to excellence in everything we do.”

For our clients, this recognition will be an assurance of the company’s dedication to excellence. Working with an award-nominated production company adds value and credibility, showcasing a proven track record of producing content that resonates with audiences and stands out in a crowded market.

The Independent Podcast Awards serve as a benchmark for quality in the podcasting industry. With categories spanning a wide range of genres, the awards celebrate the diversity and innovation that independent podcasters bring to the medium. Being a finalist in any category is a notable achievement, given the vast number of podcasts in production today.

Our double nomination is particularly noteworthy in the competitive Science & Technology category. The other five nominees are also producing exceptional content, making the competition stiff. This recognition places both “Creatives WithAI™” and “Women WithAI™” among the elite in their field.

The team extends its gratitude to everyone who has supported us on our journey—the listeners, the hosts, the dedicated support and production team, and (most of all) the guests who have shared their insights on the shows. Their support and engagement have been instrumental in helping us reach this milestone.

Joanna Shilton, host of “Women WithAI™,” also shared her thoughts. “It’s an honour to be nominated alongside such amazing podcasts,” she said. “Our goal has always been to highlight the incredible work women are doing in AI, and this recognition helps us reach a broader audience.”

As the awards ceremony approaches, the atmosphere at Futurehand HQ is one of excitement and anticipation. Regardless of the outcome, being finalists is already a significant accomplishment, and we are committed to continuing their mission of delivering high-quality content that informs and inspires.

They provide a platform for podcasters to gain visibility and for listeners to discover new and innovative content. The awards highlight the importance of independent voices in shaping conversations and driving innovation across various fields.

Futurehand Media appreciates the ongoing support from their community and looks forward to sharing the outcome of the awards. They remain optimistic about the possibilities that lie ahead and are mindful of the importance of this moment as a stepping stone to future projects and collaborations.
