The Golden Globe Awards have shed light on the podcasts eligible for their inaugural Best Podcast award, set to be given out at the 83rd annual ceremony this January.
The awards show, which is presented by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, dropped the list of eligible podcasts on Thursday evening. Among the titles listed were “Call Her Daddy,” “Armchair Expert with Dax Shepard,” “Pod Save America” and “The Megyn Kelly Show,” as well as 21 other popular podcasts.
Per the announcement, eligibility was determined by Luminate, which the Golden Globes described as “the entertainment industry’s leading authority on audio analytics and insights.”
The addition of the Best Podcast category was announced back in May, as a way to recognize the growing medium’s popularity. Out of the 25 eligible podcasts selected, only six will be named as nominees for the 2026 show.
