Curated shows let you repurpose and spotlight existing content in fresh, audience-relevant ways. By grouping existing episodes around a theme, audience segment, or purpose, you give listeners new paths to discover content they may have missed, without recreating or re-uploading episodes.
Why It Matters
Think of it like a bookstore: the same title can live in Leadership Picks, Staff Favorites, Business Strategy, or Regional Interest. Curated shows work the same way — you can surface the same episode in multiple, intentional contexts so it’s easy to find where it makes the most sense.
Recommended curation lenses:
Leadership Spotlights: CEO selections that align teams around priorities.
Role or Region: Collections tailored to function, level, market, or geography.
Popular Now: Most played, most shared, or trending.
Learning Paths: Onboarding, enablement, or skill tracks across multiple shows.
Campaigns & Initiatives: Change management, launches, quarterly themes.
Topic Hubs: Themes like security, customer stories, product know-how.
Compliance & Must-Hear: Required listening or policy updates.
Product Lines / Portfolios: Content grouped by offering or solution set.
How It Works
Create a new show for your theme. Apply group restrictions as needed. Add it to relevant Categories that exist, or create a new Category to help audiences discover it.
Find the episodes to include. Since episodes can appear in more than one show, select content that already exists and publish it to your new curated show.
Promote your new show. In some channels and communications, a curated show may work better for promotion than the original series. You can also embed a show so episodes are playable inline in another application.

Best Practices
Keep curated shows focused and current — refresh regularly.

Add a short trailer to briefly introduce the show’s theme. Tools like Autocast or NotebookLM make this simple.
