iHEARTMEDIA MILWAUKEE is running a podcasting contest in conjunction with the WISCONSIN PODCAST FESTIVAL. One winner of the "iHEART Your Podcast" contest will get free advertising for their podcast on the six iHEARTMEDIA MILWAUKEE stations: Country WMIL (FM106.1), Urban WKKV (V100.7 JAMS), Classic Hits WRIT-F (95.7 BIG FM), Sports WOKY-A (THE BIG 920), Sports WRNW (97.5 THE GAME), and News-Talk WISN-A.
Submissions are being taken on the stations' websites and at the festival itself through SUNDAY night (9/8), with a winner selected on SEPTEMBER 16th. The festival is taking place SATURDAY 10a-7p (CT) at the ITALIAN COMMUNITY CENTER, with FM106.1's QUINN hosting the festival's Choice Awards.
“iHEARTMEDIA is the #1 commercial podcaster, so it was a no-brainer to go all in,” said iHEARTMEDIA MILWAUKEE SVP/Programming KERRY WOLFE. “Podcasting is a natural extension of radio and we look forward to being a partner this year and hosting this upbeat contest for our listeners.”
“It only made sense to partner with iHEARTMEDIA MILWAUKEE for the WISCONSIN PODCAST FESTIVAL,” said festival founder ALLISON PHILLIPS. “We can’t wait to bring WISCONSIN’s podcasters and aspiring podcasters together for a weekend of learning and sharing.”
