I generally don’t pay too much attention to awards ceremonies of any kind, but it’s become increasingly hard to ignore the third annual installment of the Podcast Awards.

Two of my favorite shows — For Immediate Release and Inside PR — are among the finalists for best business podcast, and I have a tough decision to make. (Money Girl and The Engaging Brand are good programs as well and are also in the running).

Shel Holtz, co-host of FIR along with Neville Hobson, isn’t shy about wanting to win. He’s “tired of being a finalist” and is asking for our vote. The guys over at Inside PR, meanwhile, are a little more polite in their request, but you just know that behind their aww-shucks-we’re-just-happy-to-be-nominated exterior, Terry Fallis and David Jones are itching to win the prize as well.

In any case, FIR and IPR are going to need a massive votal total from podcast fans to vault past odds-on favorite and two-time defending champion, Manager Tools. Still, I’d like to think that can happen.

You can vote once a day through August 11. Head over to the Podcast Awards now and make your selection(s).
