Prestige Junkie

Katey Rich, Christopher Rosen

Booking Overview

A weekly film-and-television awards podcast combines awards-race analysis with interviews featuring prominent actors, directors, filmmakers, and awards-industry journalists. A PR agency could credibly pitch Oscar and Emmy contenders, filmmakers promoting prestige projects, entertainment journalists, and senior industry decision-makers; booking difficulty is high because the show regularly features recognizable talent and major awards-season participants.
