Podcast Episode

Episode has a clear point and purpose. It is organized into a coherent beginning, middle, and end. It includes appropriate orientation for the listener and effective transitions.

Episode engages listeners by being interesting, organized, knowledgeable, conversational yet rehearsed, and by avoiding "dead air," awkward pauses, and filler words.

Episode demonstrates technical proficiency through clean edits, balanced sound levels, clear audio, and by eliminating errors and artifacts.

Episode title and description are effective, as are the corresponding podcast title and description. Anchor page visually communicates the subject matter through images and color scheme.

Episode is an appropriate length, addresses an aspect of the local environment, incorporates audio other than one host speaking, and avoids infringing upon IP laws.
