When to use it
When setting up a podcast from scratch, planning a season, onboarding a new co-host, or optimizing an existing production schedule. Used to prevent burnout, maintain consistency, and coordinate guests across busy schedules.
Common triggers:
- Starting a new podcast — design the episode cadence
- Planning a season of episodes (8–12 at a time)
- Onboarding a new co-host — establish shared calendar
- Guest management — booking and coordinating recording times
- Production bottlenecks — optimizing the workflow
- Scaling from weekly to twice-weekly
- Switching from weekly to monthly
What this skill does NOT do:
- This is not guest research (that's guest-researcher)
- This is not recording logistics (that's technical setup)
- This is not actual calendar booking (that's scheduling software)
- This is not content strategy (that's a higher-level decision)
