It's a minor underlying question that is on everyone's mind at one point or another when creating your own podcast episodes. There are 3 things Rosie will share with you to help you decide on the duration of your podcast episodes. 1. Think about the editing process. The longer your episode goes for, the longer you'll need to edit the audio. Are you editing yourself or are you outsourcing the editing? 2. Depending on the genre, topic/subtopic you talk about each episode will determine the length of episode.
If youre sharing about the news 15- 20 minutes would be ideal.
If you’re doing an interview be prepared for at least an hour.
If you’re talking about a specific topic and go into depth something like the 6 steps to getting/making the best cup of coffee you're going in depth with each step so at least 40 mins.
Up to and beyond 60 mins
Comedy Society and culture, Business, True crime, Sport, Health/fitness, Fiction Relationships podcasts.
3. Is a 5 minute podcast too short?
This is the minimum to share something valuable. Generally speaking. There are podcasts that are 1 min long and are daily episodes, however will mostly be a mantra, saying, motivational tip or teaser. These podcasts exist, however having a longer duration episode will benefit you in the long term. Join me on Instagram @Podcastwithrosie
