Blue Wire Podcasters worked hard to close out 2024 strong, making it difficult to choose just four excellence awards to hand out for Q4. Thankfully five podcasters are being recognized thanks to a great collaboration we get to honor. These awards are decided by Blue Wire staff and based on the great work we see posted continually across the network.

The Dane Moore NBA Podcast and Knicks Film School share the Strength in Numbers Award for their thorough and entertaining collaboration covering the highly publicized trade between the Timberwolves and Knicks that sent Julius Randle and Donte DiVincenzo to Minnesota and Karl-Anthony Towns to New York. Getting the perspective of experts who have covered the players on both sides made this episode crucial for fans of both teams, and the NBA at large.

The Sixth Man Show delivers Orlando Magic fans multiple episodes covering their favorite NBA team each week, and the Sixth Man team also delivers watch parties in conjunction with the Magic organization to connect with listeners. The Rock the Crowd Award signifies the impact those meet-ups have in creating lasting connections and finding new fans for the show.

The ArsenalVision Podcast has won multiple awards from Blue Wire and other outlets due to the unique strength of the content and the community of listeners, and the Sponsor Success Award speaks to that community rallying behind sponsors who partner with ArsenalVision. Q4 renewals include expanded partnerships with NordVPN, Shopify, MANSCAPED, and Indeed.

The MLB Playoffs are always an exciting time of year, and the DodgerHeads podcast did an outstanding job covering the Dodgers run to another World Series. There's no more exciting time for a team-specific podcast than their squad winning a championship: congratulations to the DodgerHeads team and all of their listeners!
