Exactly How to Use ChatGPT and 11.ai to Create an Entire Podcast in 10 Minutes Without Speaking a Single Word

Want to create more podcasts fast and with help? Maybe you want to create a show where you don't even have to speak? Maybe you want help writing your podcast scripts? If this is you, listen to this superfast episode that my AI bot "Aurora" recorded for me!

Background info:

The podcast is called Copy That Pops. The host is LaptopLaura. Laura always closes the podcast by saying, "And remember to keep finding ways to write copy that pops!"

I want you to act like a professional script writer for podcasters where you write only word-for-word exactly what the host will speak out loud.

Please write a short script for teaching someone how to use ChatGPT and 11.ai to:

Step 1. write them a short podcast script about using ChatGPT for writing short podcast scripts

Step 2. use https://elevenlabs.io, a text to speech and AI voice generator, to read their script for use in the podcast

Step 3: download the audio files, add your intro and outro music, and publish to your favorite podcast host (I use Libsyn -- use the code LAURA for first two months free)

Please do NOT include speakers' names, the word "Host:" before paragraphs, or any notes about when to play music or sounds like "[Intro Music]". Simply produce in your response a script that could be read word for word. Thank you!

Welcome to another episode of Copy That Pops, where we explore the art and science of great writing for business. I'm your host, LaptopLaura (in the voice of an AI assistant I’ll be teaching you how to create for free today too!). 

This episode is all about using ChatGPT and 11.ai to craft compelling podcast scripts. Writing and producing has never been easier! Here’s how I created this exact podcast without speaking a single word.

Step 1: Writing a Short Podcast Script using ChatGPT

ChatGPT is a powerful language model that can help you generate creative and engaging content. Here's a simple guide to using it for your podcast scripts:

1. Start by heading to chat.openai.com and enter your prompt. For example, you can say, "Generate a short and engaging podcast script about using ChatGPT for content creation."
2. Review the suggestions provided by ChatGPT and select the ones that align with your style and tone.
3. Edit and refine the content as needed to match your unique voice and message.

Step 2: Using Elevenlabs.io to Bring Your Script to Life. 

Elevenlabs.io is a fantastic text-to-speech and AI voice generator tool. Here's how to use it:

1. Visit elevenlabs.io and paste your podcast script into the text box.
2. Choose the voice that suits your style and adjust settings like pitch and speed. You can even create your own version of a voice and give it a name. Let’s name mine Aurora (which my husband laughs at me about and says it sounds like a stripper name - lolz – sorry, Disney’s Sleeping Beauty!)
3. Hit the generate button and listen to the preview. 
4. Make any necessary tweaks to perfect the audio.

Step 3: Downloading and Publishing. 

Once your audio is ready, you will then:

1. Download the generated audio file
2. Add your intro and outro music to give it a polished and branded touch.

Note: If you're starting a new podcast hosted by Libsyn, use the code "LAURA" for your first two months free.

---

And there you have it - a seamless process to leverage tech to create and deliver captivating podcast content. 

Writing and producing has never been faster or easier! Laura made this whole episode without uttering a single word.

Visit the shownotes at CopyThatPops.com/226 for links to all that we mentioned today as well as screenflows showing this episode's creation.

I hope these tools make your writing and podcasting journey even more productive, efficient, and enjoyable. Until next time, keep finding ways to write copy that pops!

Go to 11.ai or elevenlabs.io and pick a voice you want to be your narrator.

1. Visit 11.ai or elevenlabs.io and paste your podcast script into the text box.
2. Choose the voice that suits your podcast style and adjust settings like pitch and speed. You can even create your own version of a voice and give it a name. I named mine Aurora (which my husband laughs at me about and says it sounds like a stripper name lolz – sorry Disney’s Sleeping Beauty)
3. Hit the generate button and listen to the preview. 
4. Make any necessary tweaks to perfect the audio.
5. Download the file to your computer
6. Add your intro and outro music and publish to your podcast host! : ) I use Libsyn (use code “LAURA” to get up to 2 months free, if you are brand new)

Let me know how this works for you! : )

Want to be a fly on the wall as a word nerd crafts concise, compelling copy? Then this episode is for you! : )

Live, no prep, and fully recorded (video in shownotes here below too), I talk with Lauren Fritts about her podcast, personal brand, and business. Under the umbrella of the name “That Mental Shit with Lauren Fritts” we brainstormed today on two main things:

1. A tagline. “Can you say what you do in 10 words or fewer?”
2. The “how” she accomplishes her “why.”

Here are the notes showing what we came up with together:

That Mental Shit with Lauren Fritts

TAGLINE:
I inspire women to embrace and work through their mental shit to cultivate the life they deserve.

HOW:

1. Embrace your inner 5-year-old
   1. Be curious, ask why to keep digging deeper, and don’t accept the status quo
2. Be like Mike!
   1. Example: Michael Jordan story. Work hard to overcome ‘no.’ Prove them wrong.
3. Feelings aren’t facts and they’re not forever.
   1. There is light at the end of this struggle you are in now.
   2. Really examine and question the feelings and thoughts from your mind.
4. Share everything. Openness leads to empathy.
   1. Example: Those with the brightest lights have the darkest shadows.
   2. Example: 8-mile rap at end of the movie.
5. You are not alone.
6. Your flaws are actually your fire.
   1. “Feel your feelings, then let them fuel your fire!”
   2. Example: David and Goliath
   3. It’s all perception…you can be the victim or the victor…it’s your choice.
7. You have the power.
   1. Everything starts in your mind.
   2. It’s scary to think that you have the control to change your life, but it’s true.
   3. Jim Carrey: Wrote himself a check for $2 million
8. Confidence begins with courage
   1. Be 100% yourself
9. Purpose emerges through pain

After the episode, Lauren will definitely take more time to revise, edit, condense, and/or expand on these items above, but they are a great jumping off point for her to keep as foundations to her brand and what’s she’s all about.

I hope by listening to our conversation that you not only pick up some tips and tricks for working through your own copywriting creative session, but that you feel inspired into more courageous action. Lauren is living her truth and helping others to dare to do the same.

Prefer to watch the conversation?
