# 50 Podcast Episode Title Templates — free download from DollarWise (dollarwise.xyz)

The templates are grouped by episode type because a title that works for an interview (“How [guest] built [thing]”) fails for a debate (“Should we [controversial thing]?”). Keep titles under sixty characters where possible — long titles truncate in most players — and put the most interesting word first, not last.
