How BOB turns what he found into a short two-host audio episode with Wendy, and posts it to Slack. Use with one show skill (personal brief, product and engineering, customer success, leadership, sales) whenever someone asks for a podcast, an audio brief, or "something I can listen to".

Collected from public GitHub. Every version is saved exactly as it was and never changes. Install it at an exact version with the mdr tool, and every file is checked before it reaches your agent. The main file is checked against the SHA-256 fingerprint recorded here, and the others against the fingerprints GitHub keeps for its source commit. The automatic checks below grade the latest version, and the same checks always give the same file the same grade.

What the file says

# Make a podcast episode

An episode is BOB and Wendy talking for about a minute and a half about the one thing the listener most needs to know. It is not the brief read aloud. If a line would sound fine in a written report, it is probably wrong here.

The show skill you were given says who listens, where the facts come from, and how to pick the story. This skill says how to make it sound like two people.

## The flow

1. **Gather.** Use the show's sources. Collect facts with their source ids: the ticket, call, signal, card, or brief block each fact came from. Keep exact names, numbers, and quotes. Note the time of each event.
2. **Pick one story.** Apply the show's rule. One story gets most of the episode. At most two other items get a line or two each. Everything else goes in the thread, not the audio. If nothing clears the show's bar, do not make an episode; say so in one line.
3. **Write the source packet.** One short paragraph per item: what happened, who, when, the exact quote, and why it matters to this audience. Put the chosen story first and mark it.

How to install

The exact contents, by fingerprint
mdr add buildbetter-app/skills/podcast-episode@sha256:cb1bc4c4c1e62422

The line at the top of this page pins the label git:20261001.0becfd3, which is what most people want. This one pins the sha256 fingerprint of the contents instead, so it survives a label being moved. Either way the exact version is written to mdr.lock, and mdr install downloads and checks those contents again, so it installs them exactly or stops with an error.
