LOS ANGELES, CA – (NewMediaWire) – September 28, 2023 –  PodcastOne (NASDAQ: PODC), a leading podcast platform and a subsidiary of LiveOne (NASDAQ: LVO), announced today that The Prosecutors, hosted by Alice LaCour and Brett Talley, was honored as the podcast “People’s Choice: Creator of the Year.” The inaugural “Creator of the Year” award was voted on by thousands of fans and CrimeCon attendees and bestowed on Saturday, September 23, 2023 in Orlando, Florida at the second annual CrimeCon CLUE Awards.

 

When it comes to true crime podcasts, this award shows that while a podcast can be immensely popular, some shine through by going above and beyond when it comes to conducting meticulous research, investigating, and reporting. While The Prosecutors deal with sensitive subjects, they never forget who matters the most, the victims and their families. Each week, The Prosecutors, Alice and Brett, bring their unique perspective as prosecutors to the most famous cold case mysteries of all time.

 

“Each week Alice and Brett go above and beyond to deliver the most compelling content in true crime as is evidenced by this fans voted award. The Prosecutors and The Prosecutors: Legal Briefs are two of our top performing true crime shows and Alice’s and Brett’s expertise is mind blowing. We could not be prouder of their accomplishment,” said Kit Gray, President and Co-Founder of PodcastOne.

 

“We are so honored by this award, which doesn’t belong to us, but to all of our incredible listeners who represent the very best of true crime — never forgetting the real lives behind the stories and demanding evidence-based justice,” said LaCour and Talley.

The awards recognize exceptional titles in categories such as TV, documentary films, podcasts, and publishing.
