Episode notes
Pick Chronology To Maximize Impact
- Choose a chronological format that creates immediate wonder or fits the story's time span.
- Prefer A-B-C when you have a compelling beginning, B-A-B-C for big time jumps, and C-A-B-C only for striking endings.
Avoid Wide Time Jumps
- Large time jumps confuse listeners and feel sloppy in live storytelling.
- Anchor stories in the present (adult narrator) and flashback to compress time clearly.
Open With A Compelling Question
- Start where the audience will feel the most curiosity: a phone ring, a knock, or an angry voice.
- Use openings that create questions the story will answer to hold attention.
