Welcome to Pocket-Sized Podcasting, brought to you by Alitu: The Podcast Maker. And on this episode, we’re talking about how long your podcast episodes should be. Here’s the bottom line - podcast length depends solely on content. Don’t cut down good content - or, pad out succinct work! How long does your episode need to be to get the message out? Then that’s the ideal length for you. If you asked most podcast listeners, a “short” episode would probably be anything under 15 minutes. And a “long” episode would probably be anything over an hour. Anything from 20 to 45 minutes seems to be the “typical” episode length, but again, let your content dictate. Just try to aim for some ballpark consistency from episode to episode. Doing 5mins one week then 2 hours the next is going to be a bit jarring for your audience. Podcast listeners like to know what to expect!
