# Podcast clip question and audience worksheet

An editorial planning tool from Overlap. This does not reveal or control a viewer's recommendation preferences.

## One record per candidate

- Source episode and timestamp:
- Candidate file/version:
- Intended viewer and situation:
- Question this clip finishes answering:
- Concrete example or reasoning the speaker provides:
- Qualification that must survive the edit:
- Missing context supplied by the opening or accurate label:
- Caption and destination:
- Reviewer and decision:
- Destination account and publishing owner:

## Brief to adapt

Find a complete explanation of [decision] for [audience]. Include the speaker's example and any condition limiting the advice. Preserve meaning. Exclude sponsor reads and material requiring unavailable visuals. If no complete answer exists, say so instead of forcing a candidate. Use transcription vocabulary settings for names; this brief is not ad targeting.

## Observation log

| Post URL | Published at | Observed at / post age | Question | Metrics available in account | Useful follow-up questions | Signs of missing context | Reshares / paid promotion / other changes | Next editorial decision |
| --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- | --- |
| | | | | | | | | |

Keep metric definitions and observation windows consistent. Views may include repeat viewing; missing data is unknown, not zero. Ordinary sequential posts do not establish causation. Record recurring patterns across several episodes before revising the selection brief.
