Podcast episode show notes
Show notes are the blog posts that accompany your episodes. They drive search traffic, give a useful summary, and link to anything mentioned in the episode.
Many podcasters find show notes a chore, but the upside is real: search traffic, a handy summary of what's covered, and links to anything referenced in the episode.
Your podcast has to be sustainable. If a quick bullet-point summary per episode is all you can manage, that's absolutely fine.
Some podcasters outsource show notes to a copywriter. Others use AI tools like ChatGPT to create first drafts — with the right prompts they need little editing.
