‘The View’s Whoopi Goldberg Wins Audie Award & Reveals Why It’s So Meaningful: “You Are What Keeps Me From Going Over The Edge”


Whoopi Goldberg is an EGOT winner and her most recent win was at the 2025 Audie Awards, which recognizes audiobooks and spoken-word entertainment.

Goldberg said on the show that “one of the reasons I was not at home to watch” Donald Trump’s address to Congress “was because I was so honored to receive an Audi Award for narrating my audio book.” “This one is particularly meaningful to me because, as I’ve said when we talk about books that for me, my mom, because I was dyslexic, read to me all the time,” Goldberg said. She continued, “You are what keeps me from going over the edge, because the books, whatever I’m listening to on any given day, I can calm myself to come out and really just have a really good fun discussion.
