iTunes chooses Age of Persuasion as "Best New Podcast of 2011"


It's a great honour to be chosen "Best New Podcast of 2011" by iTunes.


As we bid farewell to 2011, it's been a big year for Age of Persuasion. In addition to the iTunes news, the show was awarded the Grand Prize for "Best Program" at the New York Festivals, and ratings showed the program jumped from 500,000 listeners to over 850,000 in Canada alone (not counting Sirius Satellite and WBEZ Chicago).


It really was our biggest season to date.


To celebrate, all 2011 Age of Persuasion episodes have all been re-posted and are available for podcast on iTunes and www.cbc.ca/ageofpersuasion.


Thanks to all our wonderful listeners, and have a healthy and happy holiday season.


See you on January 7th, at 11:30am on CBC, as we begin a new era with our new show, Under The Influence.
