Bauer Media Audio is celebrating a fantastic night at this year’s British Podcast Awards, with Pete Wicks’ Man Made taking home two major awards.

The podcast was named winner in both the Best Interview and Health & Wellbeing categories at the ceremony, held at indigo at The O2, with Pete Wicks in attendance to receive both awards.

The double win marks a significant achievement for Pete Wicks’ Man Made, recognising the podcast’s honest, open and impactful conversations around modern masculinity, mental health, relationships, identity and wellbeing.

Speaking after the wins, Pete Wicks said:

“I’m genuinely blown away. Man Made has always been about creating a space where people can talk honestly — about the stuff that matters, the stuff that’s difficult, and the stuff we probably don’t say out loud enough. To win both Best Interview and Health & Wellbeing means so much, because it shows these conversations are connecting with people. I’m incredibly proud of the team and so grateful to everyone who listens, shares, and supports the podcast.”
