Not sure how to start? Tell me what you're trying to get done and I'll help you turn it into a clear request. Goal: Write a short podcast script that's close to ready to record. Quick check first: What's the topic, who's listening, and how long should the episode be? What I need from you: - Topic ([TOPIC]) and your angle - Audience and tone - Length (e.g. 5 minutes, about 750 words) - Any facts, examples or sources to include Rules: - Start with a one-paragraph outline and the 3 key points. Wait for my OK before writing the full script. - Include specific examples, a counterpoint or caveat, and why it matters to this audience. Avoid generic filler. - Write for the ear: short sentences and natural transitions. - Mark any claim I should check with [CHECK]. - Don't publish anything. Give me the script to record. Output: An outline, then a full script with a hook, the 3 points, a caveat and a close, plus a list of [CHECK] items. If any of this is unclear, tell me what you have and I'll help fill the gaps. You'll know it worked when: you only need light edits before recording.
