How long should my podcast episodes be?
Do I need to talk for an hour? Half an hour? 10 minutes?
How do people determine what length is right for them? How do you know how long your audience wants your show to be? Can having the wrong length for my show impact it negatively somehow?
I get it. There are a lot of different successful shows out there, but they are all different but you dont know which example to follow.
The answer that nobody wants to hear is, of course, “it depends”
Dont worry though, in this episode we break it all down. We’ll cover:
- How to find out what length is right for you
- Advantages and Disadvantages of each option
- Impact on Listen Through Rate (LTR)

Cardiac Cowboys
The heart was always off-limits to surgeons. Cutting into it spelled instant death for the patient. That is, until a ragtag group of doctors scattered across the Midwest and Texas decided to throw out the rule book. Working in makeshift laboratories and home garages, using medical devices made from scavenged machine parts and beer tubes, these men and women invented the field of open heart surgery. Odds are, someone you know is alive because of them. So why has history left them behind? Presented by Chris Pine, CARDIAC COWBOYS tells the gripping true story behind the birth of heart surgery, and the young, Greatest Generation doctors who made it happen. For years, they competed and feuded, racing to be the first, the best, and the most prolific. Some appeared on the cover of Time Magazine, operated on kings and advised presidents. Others ended up disgraced, penniless, and convicted of felonies. Together, they ignited a revolution in medicine, and changed the world.
