Outline a podcast episode

Outline a podcast episode.

Produce:
1. Opening — how to get into the topic in under 90 seconds, without a biography recital.
2. Three or four movements, each with the question that opens it and what it should surface.
3. Per movement: one follow-up for a short answer, one for an answer that opens something unexpected.
4. Time budget across movements.
5. Stall cards — three questions to play when the conversation flattens, kept separate from the main flow.
6. Closing question, asked the same way every episode if this is a series.

Rules:
- *Questions, not a script.* Anything written to be read aloud will sound read.
- Order so the easiest questions come first and the one that needs trust comes last.
- Avoid questions answerable with yes or no, and questions that are really statements.
- Use only what I told you about the guest. *Do not invent their background or opinions.*
- Mark one question as the one worth the episode, in case there is time for only one.
