Best practices for solo episode length and consistency?
I'm kinda just recording from scripts I wrote and letting the duration take as long as it does. First episode was 33 minutes. Then I just published a 10 minute episode because I didn't want to bother trying to drag it out to the same length. I was thinking I'd like the solo episodes to be about 30 minutes if I can pull it off, but that'll make me take even more of forever to do these things. I saw YT shorts can be a max of 3 minutes. So I'm thinking 3 minutes or less is "short-form" and going there and on socials. Then 10 minutes or more could be an "episode" maybe? Do I need a consistent episode length? Does that mess things up if I do 10 to 15 minutes things, then a 30 minute thing, then maybe if I have a guest it'll probably be an hour or two? I'm also doing monthly Terrain Q&A calls where I do a solo talk at the start and talk about stuff I had prepared. The first talk was 30 minutes. I posted it on YT. Can I maybe throw an intro on there and repurpose as an episode? Basically trying to use all the things I have in all the right places without doing a ton of extra work. I guess overall I'm asking which things go in which buckets?
