Acast

Podcasting is a powerful medium for connecting with audiences, but maintaining consistency across your episodes can be a challenge. Beyond the audio itself, the episode description plays a crucial role in attracting listeners and providing context. ​ The Global episode description allows you to automatically append information to every episode's individual description. Imagine you have a core message, a call to action, or a set of links that you want to include in every episode description. Manually adding this information to each episode is tedious and prone to errors. The global episode description feature solves this problem by allowing you to define a standardized block of text that is automatically added below the unique description you write for each episode.

You'll find the Global episode description in your show's "Settings" tab. The feature has a 1000-character limit, encouraging you to craft concise and impactful supplementary show notes.
