So I was wondering if podcast script writing was at all acceptable

So I was wondering if podcast script writing was at all acceptable here. The subject matter of the story is Americana Urban Legends, Cults, Conspiracy Theories, Serial Killers, Strange Happenings, etc.

I research the story, and if I live close enough I go to the location in question. Otherwise I email folks involved if they are still living or their relatives if I can find them.

I have thus far been using the following format:
>Smaller introductory story, normally 5-10 minutes
>Main header story 20-30 minutes
>Mini story as a break, normally 'small facts" 3-5 minutes
>Finish main story 10-20 minutes
>Out going story with strange ending, leave ending for the following week 5-10 minutes

So it ranges normally from 45 minutes to 1:15.

I have recorded four episodes and am planning on not beginning releases until I have a few more. It is actually pretty difficult gathering 45 minutes to an hour of content.

Anyone have thoughts on this? Too long? Too short? Should I focus on a single story? Any suggestions on content gathering?

Also I am having a very hard time figuring out a good title. My working title thus far has been "American Oddities", but that's boring.

Polite sage for off-topic, but check out Lore (podcast) by Mahnke

I'll give it a look.

Another issue I am having is I am starting to lose faith in the subject matter. I am unsure if these topics are connected enough or interesting enough to focus something around.

>Americana Urban Legends, Cults, Conspiracy Theories, Serial Killers, Strange Happenings

Too broad, any one of these would have unlimited content. Just like, folk legends of the Northeast is enough to fill tons of shitty books at every colonial times type re-enactment.

I would disagree. As long as it is focused on modern america, like from the 1900s onward, that's narrow enough to be interesting.

Maybe cut Urban Legends and just go with Cults/Conspiracy Theories/Serial Killers.

>>8997132
If I had not narrow it down I would either go with Conspiracy Theories or Serial Killers. However I do not know how interesting either of those subjects could really be on their own.

Sounds like last podcast on the left

I do like Last Podcast on the Left, but I have a much different cadence and tone than Last Podcast on the Left.
