Ever wondered how the (podcast) sausage is made?

 

In this slightly "meta" episode, I reveal the step-by-step process to make an episode of English Learning for Curious Minds.

 
  • Choosing podcast topics: interest, timelessness, and neutrality
  • Avoiding controversial topics and current affairs
  • Researching topics through books, articles, and data
  • Writing full scripts for natural conversation flow
  • Using a variety of vocabulary for diverse learners
  • Rewriting scripts after initial recordings
  • Aiming for 20-minute episodes, 2,500-3,000-word scripts
  • Incorporating AI tools for brainstorming and editing
  • Results from our 2025 listener survey
  • Thank you!
