In this episode, I address a common question: 'How long should your podcast episodes be?' I explain that the ideal length varies depending on the type of podcast and audience preference.
I recommend around 45 minutes for guest interviews, but my preference is to keep them to 25 minutes to ensure they are focused and actionable.
Health-related podcasts might benefit from being around 30 minutes long while solo episodes can be as short as 10 minutes.
I emphasize the importance of tailoring the length to your content and audience, and not being afraid to deviate from norms.
