The People’s Choice Podcast Awards are an annual set of awards given to the best podcasts as voted by the general public. Run by Podcast Connect Inc., the Podcast Awards have been given out since 2005.

Fausto Fernós and his partner Marc Felion spearheaded the podcasting revolution in February 2005 with their daily comedy talk show, the Feast of Fun, formerly know as Feast of Fools. The name change reflects changes to the website which includes user submitted content in the “Fresh” section of the website.

Feast of Fun is available for free through the iTunes Music store.
