How it works
Podcasting looks like just recording, but the work around the recording is what makes an episode good and consistent. This template runs the full cycle: confirm the topic and guest, prepare talking points, record, edit with intro and outro, write show notes, publish, then promote. Apply it for every episode so production stays repeatable and nothing important slips between recording and release.
