Journal Entry

Podcasts are eligible for Hugos

Tony at StarShipSofa wrote

Here’s the thing… podcasts have not been nominated for a Hugo yet…. but
they changed the wording in 2009 to “or the equivalent in other media” which
makes us eligible. Apparently we’ve always been eligible but now it’s wrote
in stone, so to speak.

There’s more info here about podcasts and Hugos.

And if you enjoy, say, StarShipSofa’s Aural Delights [with Paolo Bacigalupi in the latest issue], a Best Fanzine nomination would probably be quite welcomed by them!

And any other podcast you might also like is eligible as well.

More info about voting for the Hugos here.
