Guide
How to use a podcast planner
A podcast lives or dies by consistency. A podcast planner gives every episode its own page, from guest and outline to publish checklist, and keeps your content calendar, guests and growth together.
Map the season
Use the content calendar to plan topics and release dates for each month.
Book guests
The guest tracker records who you've asked, the recording date, links and whether you've sent thanks.
Plan every episode
Each episode planner has number, title, guest, record and release dates, length and an outline.
Publish with a checklist
Record, edit, show notes, artwork, upload and schedule, share clips.
Track growth
Note downloads, followers and sponsor conversations every month.
What to include in a podcast planner
A podcast planning template should cover the show and the business. This one includes:
Calendar
Weekly and monthly pages
Dated month calendars and a weekly page for each week, for recording sessions and release days. No daily pages.

An example week in a podcast planner
One goal, followed through a single week. The milestone and weekly actions are the kind of lines the AI goal step writes onto your month and week pages; the daily notes are what you add by hand.

See all themesDoes it work for video podcasts?
Yes. Use the episode outline for segments and the publish checklist for clips and thumbnails. The content creator section has video planners too.
How many episodes does it cover?
52 episode planners, one a week for a year. Duplicate pages for more, or switch some off by choosing fewer weeks of content.
Is there a free podcast planner?
You can build this podcast planner and flip through every page in your browser for free, with a watermark. The tabs and links work in the preview, so you can check the layout before you pay. The clean PDF is $12 once, or included in Pro at $49 a year for unlimited planners. There is no free download of the full planner.
Does it work with GoodNotes, Notability, Samsung Notes and e-ink tablets?
Yes. Download the iPad size for GoodNotes, Notability, Noteshelf, Xodo, Collanote or ZoomNotes; the Android size for Samsung Notes, Penly, Flexcil or Xodo; or the E-ink size for reMarkable, Kindle Scribe, Boox and Supernote. The links work in any app that follows PDF links, usually in read mode rather than pen mode. Every size is included in the price.
Can I print the podcast planner?
Yes. Choose A5, A4, US Letter or Half Letter in the builder for a printable PDF with a wider inner margin for hole punching. Printable and digital sizes come with the same purchase, so you can use the podcast planner on a tablet and print the pages you want on paper.
Is the podcast planner dated or undated?
Dated by default, starting in January 2027. You can pick any start month and year (including this month), a length from 3 months to 5 years, and Monday or Sunday weeks. Or switch to undated and write the dates in yourself, so a skipped week isn't wasted.
Does the AI fill in the podcast planner for me?
Only the goal parts, and only if you want it to. Type up to six goals and the AI writes a milestone for each month and a short action for each week onto your month and week pages, plus a motto for each month. You can edit every line before you download. Everything else, from the calendar pages to the trackers, is yours to fill in by hand. You can try it 3 times a day without an account.
How many pages is the podcast planner?
With the default settings it comes to about 228 pages. That includes 12 month pages, 53 weekly pages, the Podcast, Content Creator, Business and Goals pages and 20 notes pages. Switching off sections makes it shorter, and the builder shows the total as you change things.
Make it yours in about a minute.
Set your dates, device and goals, flip through the preview free, and pay only when it's right.
