The Podcast Academy announced today that actor and podcast host Larry Wilmore will host the third annual Awards for Excellence in Audio (The Ambies) on March 7.
The ceremony will be streamed LIVE on Twitch from the International Theater in Las Vegas from 6_-_7:30 p.m. PST. Additionally, Twitch will host a LIVE pre-show from 4:30-6 p.m. PST.
“As a podcaster myself, one of the beautiful things about the medium is getting the opportunity to have insightful long-form conversations,” said Wilmore. “That and not always having to wear pants. But for my peers, I plan to wear my fanciest pants as I serve as the host of The Podcast Academy’s Awards for Excellence in Audio on March 7.”
Donald Albright, chairperson of The Podcast Academy and CEO of Tenderfoot TV stated: “Larry’s prolific body of work and unique humor spans the stage, screen, and podcasting. To say that we are lucky to have him host this year’s Ambies is an understatement. He’s an icon in his own right. We cannot wait to see—and hear—what he will bring to the ceremony.”
