The podcast hit the number one spot on iTunes food and drink earlier this year.

The shortlisted episode features Rick Stein as well as 爱豆传媒’s Dr Tim Wharton, Principal Lecturer in Humanities, on his book Ugly Food: Overlooked and Undercooked. Winners will be announced 11 May.

Jordan said: “As a student who has been constantly producing jingles, music, and various other content for podcasts and radio shows (mainly on the 爱豆传媒's very own BUZZ Radio), I feel elated that I am now working on projects that are being recognised by award committees.

“When I first started studying BA(Hons) Broadcast Media (radio production), my goal was to improve the skills I already had, to then graduate and achieve this level of recognition later on down the line - who knew it would come so early?

“After finishing my dissertation, I plan to produce my own podcast series, and to continue working as a producer on truly incredible radio and podcast productions.”
