2011 Clios Nominations: Best Podcast Episode

Please submit, in comments below, your nominations for the best episode of a history-related podcast since 1 December 2010. [registration not required to post nominations, but the usual rules of civility and conduct still apply] Nominations will be accepted from November 1st through 30th.

Please include a URL for the podcast, pointing to the specific episode nominated. You may nominate as many podcasts as you wish in this category, but no more than three episodes of any one podcast will be considered (in the event more are nominated, the choice(s) of the podcast creator will be respected). You may nominate individual blogs or bloggers in other categories as well.

If you want ideas of blogs or writers to nominate, see the History Blogroll or past editions of the History Carnival or its related carnivals.

Bloggers do not need to be academic historians. If you're not sure whether a podcast qualifies as "history," nominate them anyway and the judges will make a final determination. If you have questions, feel free to contact Ralph Luker or leave a comment here.

Judging Committee: Jonathan Dresner (chair), Manan Ahmed and Sharon Howard. [Judges are ineligible to win awards they are judging, but feel free to nominate them for something else!]

2011 Clios Nominations: Alternate Site

Due to technical difficulties at HNN affecting Cliopatria and the award nomination posts, we have established these 'satellite pages.' If you have already made a nomination at HNN, you do not have to duplicate it here; if HNN's technical difficulties are solved, you do not have to renominate items from here over there. Both sites' nominations will be accounted for in the judging.

The Cliopatria Awards recognize the best history writing in the blogosphere. There will be awards in eight categories:

• Best Group Blog
• Best Individual Blog
• Best New Blog
• Best Writer
• Best Blog Post
• Best Series of Blog Posts
• Best Twitter Feed
• Best Podcast Episode

Cliopatria, as host of the awards, is ineligible for the"Best Group Blog" category. Individual judges are ineligible for nomination in their respective categories, but may be nominated for other awards. Judges may also make nominations in other categories.

Bloggers, blogs and posts may be nominated in multiple categories. Individuals may nominate any number of specific blogs, bloggers or posts, even in a single category, as long as the nominations include all the necessary information (names, titles, URLs, etc).

Nominations will be open through November; judges will make the final determinations in December. The winners will be announced at the American Historical Association Annual Meeting in early January 2011; winners will be listed on HNN and earn the right to display the appropriate Cliopatria Award Logo on their blog.

Judges for 2011 are: Manan Ahmed, Kelly Baker, Jonathan Dresner, Mary Dudziak, Katrina Gulliver, Andrew Hartman, Brett Holman, Sharon Howard, Shane Landrum, Randall Stephens, Karen Tani, David Weinfeld.

Previous winners can be seen here.
