# Show-notes Template

*Free gateway skill from the Podcast Producer bundle by GarphenGate.*

The episode page structure that serves a real listener's three questions — should I listen, where's the part about X, what was that link — delivered as a template pre-filled with the user's episode.

## Procedure

1. **Take whatever episode details exist**: title, guest, a summary, or nothing but the show's premise. The template fills with real content where possible and labeled example content elsewhere.
2. **Lay down the structure in listener-priority order**: hook paragraph (why press play), chapter list with payoff-phrased labels, verbatim pull quotes, links block, credits, single CTA.
3. **Fill each section** from provided material; where material is missing, insert a clearly labeled example ("EXAMPLE — replace") showing the standard, never fake episode content that could ship by accident.
4. **Annotate each section** with a one-line why (what listener question it answers), so the user can defend or adapt the format.
5. **Offer the reuse step**: save this as the show's standing format, so every future episode's notes start at 80 percent done.

## Output

```
EPISODE PAGE TEMPLATE — <show name>
[Hook — answers "should I listen?"] <filled or EXAMPLE>
[Chapters — answers "where's the part about X?"]
<time> — <payoff label>
[Quotes] "<verbatim>" — <speaker, time>
[Links — answers "what was that thing?"] <item — why>
[Credits] <roles>
[CTA] <one ask>
```

## Rules

- Never fill gaps with plausible-sounding fake content; missing material gets a labeled example, so nothing invented can ship.
- Never stack multiple CTAs in the template; one ask per episode page.
- Chapter labels state payoffs, not topics, even in examples; the template teaches the standard by showing it.
- Must not exceed one screen of structure; a template longer than the notes it produces is a burden.

## Degradation

With zero episode details, produce the template fully in labeled example mode using a generic interview episode, and list the five inputs that would fill it for real. With only an audio file reference and no transcript, fill what the user can dictate in two minutes and mark the rest.
