About this tool
This page covers a plainer job than building an episode: one article in, one audio file out, meant for personal listening rather than a produced show with segments or a cold open. Brian's friendly, plainspoken tone suits that straightforward read-aloud use.

It's built for a plain audio file you can listen to yourself, like on a commute, rather than a produced episode with segments and a show open.
One article at a time works best; for a multi-story format with datelines and transitions, a dedicated bulletin-style page is a better fit.
Numbers and footnote markers are read as part of the text, so it helps to remove citation brackets first if you don't want them spoken.
Most standard article lengths render in one pass; very long pieces may render more reliably split into two or three sections.
Yes, the audio file you generate carries full commercial rights, so client work, ads, and monetized use are all covered.
Start from a topic or a script, pick two hosts and export the episode. Free to start.

The Long Way Round
Why nobody finishes the side project
Two hosts, one real argument — interruptions and all.
I have four unfinished side projects on this laptop right now, and I want to know why that keeps happening.
Only four?
Don't.
Mine are across two laptops and a notebook I genuinely cannot find. So, four is nothing.
The bit that actually bothers me is that none of them died because they were bad ideas. They died in week three. Every single time.
Because week three is when it stops being the fun version and starts being the real version. That's the whole story, there's nothing else to it.
No, wait — that's too easy. You're saying people quit because work is work?
I'm saying you found time for week one, and week one is the hardest part. So it isn't time.
It is absolutely time! Week one is easy because nobody is waiting on it. Nothing is at stake, so nothing costs anything.
Then put something at stake.
Oh, brilliant. Just care more. Thanks, that'll fix it.
That's not what I— fine. Okay. Not discipline. Find one person who is mildly annoyed you haven't shipped. That's it. That's the whole fix.
Huh. Yeah, alright. That one I'll actually try.
