Generating Multiple Episodes at Once

By default, every request on the New Episode screen produces one episode, even a broad one that covers several subtopics. Explicitly ask for more than one, and Jellypod detects that and generates each one in parallel instead.

When It Triggers

Jellypod looks for a clear, explicit ask for more than one episode:

• An explicit count: "Make 3 episodes about X" or "a five-part series on Y."
• An enumerated list: "One episode on X and one on Y."
• Open-ended series language: "Make a series about the Roman Empire" or "create multiple episodes on Z." Jellypod picks a sensible number of episodes and a topic breakdown for you.

A normal prompt, even one asking for broad coverage in a single episode ("an episode covering X, Y, and Z"), still produces one episode. When a request is ambiguous, Jellypod defaults to a single episode.

What Happens

Every episode in the batch generates the same way a single episode does: research, script, and audio, run independently and in parallel. Sibling episodes can't see each other's finished scripts, so the batch relies on the topic breakdown decided up front rather than reading prior episodes as it goes.

• The hosts, attached sources, and settings (Auto-publish, Include show notes) you chose before sending apply to every episode in the batch.
• You're taken straight to the podcast page, where every episode in the batch appears immediately in the episode list with a live progress indicator, the same as a single episode.
• Generation keeps going even if you navigate away or close the tab.

Frequently Asked Questions

Can I create multiple episodes in one request?

Yes, if you explicitly ask for more than one, for example "make 3 episodes about X, Y, and Z" or "create a series about the Roman Empire." Jellypod generates each one in parallel. A normal single-topic prompt still produces one episode.

Can the episodes in a batch reference each other?

No. Each episode researches and writes independently and in parallel, so it can't read another episode's finished script. Describe how the episodes should relate to each other in your original request instead.
