The industry’s leading AAPI non-profit podcasting association is delighted to present 31 podcasts showcasing the work of AAPIs AND produce its second annual podcast festival during May’s Asian American Pacific Islander Month, organizers said.

The Asian American Podcasters Association has compiled a list of 31 podcasts — some of which are recipients of the AAP’s prestigious GOLDEN CRANE Podcast Awards — to showcase during May’s AAPI Heritage Month, co-founder Andy Wang said. There are 31 shows so folks can listen to one for each of the days in May. It is one of the few UPDATED lists of AAPI podcasts in existence. And, people can explore AAP’s podcast directory of more than 780 AAPI shows on ListenNotes.com.

“We have worked for the past two awards seasons to put this list of shows together for all to recognize and check out,” Wang said. “Most are indie podcasts, and some are corpcasts. They show a wide range of topics and storytelling, which illustrates the spectrum of AAPI voices.” (See the attached page for a list of the shows.)
“We keep a running list of winners of AAP’s GOLDEN CRANE Podcast Awards on our website to highlight their work and to encourage more people to listen to AAPI-run shows,” co-founder Lee Uehara said. “It’s great that Podchaser.com has recently listed our Awards program on their ‘17 Podcast Awards to Keep an Eye on This Year’ list this season.”

Additionally, 2022 marks AAP’s production of the world’s 2nd Annual Asian Podcast Festival, where AAPI showrunners record LIVE episodes of their shows in front of an audience. Submissions are now being accepted for the May 20th virtual festival. To submit, visit: https://www.aapodcasters.org/festival-submissions/.
