Tešan Podrugović (; 1775–1815), also known as Teša Podrug (Теша Подруг), was a Serb merchant, hajduk, storyteller and gusle player () who participated in the First Serbian Uprising and Second Serbian Uprising. He was one of the most important sources for Serbian epic poetry recorded by Vuk Karadžić. Podrugović did not sing but used to 'speak' his poems; he understood and felt the poems and thought about what he said. He was Serbia's best known fiddle player (guslar) after Filip Višnjić.

Podrugović's family was from the village of Kazanci in the municipality of Gacko.

Songs

Vuk Karadžić recorded for the first time many songs sung by Podrugović. The poem about Musa Kesedžija, named Marko Kraljević and Musa Kesedžija, recited by Podrugović was recorded for the first time in Sremski Karlovci in 1815 by Vuk Karadžić. The song about General Vuča was also recorded by Karadžić, based on the singing of Podrugović.
