The winners of The Global Awards 2021 were revealed today with LBC's Hunting Ghislaine named Best Podcast.
A delighted John Sweeney said the win moved him to tears as he displayed his award.
"I do feel emotional, this award means a lot, thank you very much and keep on listening."
The podcast introduced in 2020 sees investigative reporter John Sweeney set out to tell the strange story of Ghislaine Maxwell. The six-episode series reflects on her black book of high society contacts, including Bill Clinton, Donald Trump and Prince Andrew, all the while noting the cult-like influence of Jeffrey Epstein on Ghislaine’s world.
