If you want listeners to keep coming back and listening to your show, then you need to have a solid episode format. This is the structure for your podcast, and it's something most people are subconsciously looking for when they're listening to your show. If you don't have it, they may stop listening and they may not even know why. Having that structure helps guide your audience through the show so they know what to expect. So, what are the main components of a typical podcast episode, and where do you have some wiggle room so you can still be a creative? Today we're talking about creating a structure or format for your podcast episodes.
