A general guide to hosting a solo episode

Why use a solo format?

Solo recordings are a great way to briefly share updates, notes, and company news. A solo episode can be used to replace an email, a chat thread, or even a meeting.

Use this template as a general guideline for your next episode, or in addition to any of our other scripts.

For this format, we recommend having an intro, up to three main sections, and an outro.
