The GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Podcast is an annual award that honors audio podcasts for excellence in the depiction of LGBT (lesbian, gay, bisexual, and transgender) news and commentary. It is one of several categories of the annual GLAAD Media Awards, which are presented by GLAAD—an American non-governmental media monitoring organization founded in 1985—at ceremonies in New York City and Los Angeles between March and May.

The award was first given in 2023 in a tie to the podcasts Sibling Rivalry and TransLash Podcast with Imara Jones.
