Last night, the Spotify Podcast Awards in Mexico returned to the country's capital. Now in its second year, the evening honors creators whose voices are helping shape the cultural conversation across Mexico in Latin America. Leading up to the ceremony fans turned out in record numbers to support their favorite shows, with more than 1 million unique voters casting nearly 8 million votes.
Eight million votes say much more than any metric; it speaks of a community that not only watches and listens, but organizes, supports, and celebrates, said Thais Tavara, Head of Podcast, Spotify Latin America. That's exactly what we want to celebrate.
