Wavve Tips: How to Create a Podcast Editorial Calendar

We've covered this before, but with 2025 rapidly approaching thought it would be a good idea to reiterate just how important an editorial calendar is to your podcast, your efficiency, and your sanity (trust us).

If you don't already map out your strategy, make 2025 the year you do.

The Wavve blog has some tips on creating an effective editorial calendar. The benefits are obvious (and not at all limited to these four).

  • Consistency: Regularly publishing episodes builds trust with your audience.
  • Organization: Keeps all your content ideas, notes, and deadlines in one place.
  • Planning: Allows you to strategically plan content around themes, seasons, and events.
  • Collaboration: Facilitates better coordination with co-hosts, guests, and production team.

Proven Editorial Calendar Tools

There are plenty of options when it comes to actually getting your calendar up and running. The good news is that many quality options are free.

  • Google Calendar. Simple but very intuitive.
  • Asana is a proven workflow tool. They offer a free calendar template.
  • If you want more detail with your platform, try Notion. It gives you place to outline tasks, notes and all sorts of other fun organizational stuff.
  • Monday is a popular collaboration tool. It's a good choice when working with a larger group.

These are just a sample of the possibilities. There are limitless options on the interwebs.
