Episode 511 - Can I Change My Podcast Episode Title and What is a Bonus Podcast Episode - Daily Dave - Podcasting Tips Understanding Podcast Episode Numbers & Bonus Episodes Use your podcast host to number episodes—this helps listeners find and reference them easily. Dave prefers adding the episode number (“E123”) at the start of the title for quick navigation. Do what works for you! Customizing your numbering system is all about listener convenience and personal organization. Bonus Episodes Bonus episodes are not part of your regular episode sequence. Use them for announcements, news, or special features. Bonus episodes can be released at any time, appear by release date rather than episode order, and can be added or backdated anytime. Real example: Dave updated past group-author interviews for "Living The Next Chapter"—converting them from unnumbered bonus episodes to regular, numbered ones after the fact.
