lighter wood.
tulipwood/poplar if you want it cheap and light.
ash costing a bit more
maple costs more or same as ash depending on location
there the three lighter coloured woods id choose.
and then just buy a veneered panel in the matching wood, groove the frame and fit .
if thats even the question you are asking...

That's a lectern. The podium is the raised platform that you put under the lectern to stand on.

Well first, a podium is a small stage on which a speaker stands. You have a lectern in your photo. Assuming that you are retarded and still want to build a podium.
I'd use a hardwood and make sure to support the platform.
