If you’ve ever hosted a podcast, you know the real struggle is hidden behind the scenes: the hours spent prepping for each episode. From researching guests to crafting tailored questions, producing an engaging podcast takes serious time. But what if I told you that your podcast prep could shrink from hours to mere minutes? Yep—AI just made it happen.
Introducing “My Showrunner”: The AI Assistant Every Podcaster Needs
Together with Susan Diaz, I’ve launched something I’m genuinely excited about: My Showrunner, a custom GPT designed specifically for podcast creators. It automates the tedious prep tasks that bog us down and frees up your time for what’s important—actually hosting an incredible show.
How “My Showrunner” Works (And Why You’ll Love It)
Think of My Showrunner as your AI producer who takes care of the groundwork for guest interviews. Here’s what it can handle:
- Analyzing your guest’s LinkedIn profile
- Suggesting relevant and engaging episode topics
- Generating compelling episode titles and outlines
- Crafting personalized interview questions
- Writing a polished email to send your guest
In short, what once took 1-2 hours now takes less than 5 minutes.
Why Custom GPTs Are Game-Changers
Custom GPTs aren’t just a flashy new AI tool; they’re genuinely transformative. Instead of repeatedly instructing AI from scratch, you pre-program it once, and it proactively guides you through the entire workflow.
My Showrunner isn’t generic—it’s personalized to your show’s unique tone, premise, and host personality. It’s like having a producer who truly understands your vision, minus the salary negotiation.
