When to use a "Trailer Episode" and when to use an "Episode 0"

On this episode of the Audience podcast, Matt and Stuart talk about the differences and the importance of having a trailer episode or an “Episode 0.” Are they different things? The short answer is yes. The long answer involves the reasoning for using one or the other, as well as the length and content of this initial episode. Depending on the format of your podcast, you may benefit from either having an Episode 0 or a trailer.

Listen in to get tips on how to make both of them well, suggestions on which to use depending on the content of your podcast, and why they are so beneficial. Remember the beauty and the challenge of podcasts: There are no rules but there should be an episode 0.
