Podcast Guest Researcher
Builds a research brief and angle on a potential podcast guest.
Before & after
Same prompt, same agent — the only difference is the skill.
I can help you research a podcast guest. To do this effectively, I'd need to know more about the person you're interested in. You could look at their background, previous media appearances, and expertise. I can help you compile information and suggest topics you might discuss. What's the guest's name or area of expertise? Do you have any background information already?
GUEST RESEARCH BRIEF: Crime Analyst Maria Chen BACKGROUND Forensic psychologist, 8 years FBI behavioral analysis unit, published 3 books on criminal profiling, guest on 12 podcasts (avg audience 18K) PODCAST ANGLES 1. "The Cold Case That Changed How We Profile" - untold 2015 serial case, why traditional methods failed, ML approach breakthrough 2. Misconceptions listeners have about profiling (CSI effect, unrealistic expectations) 3. Why certain crime types are harder to solve: financial crime vs. violent (data-driven comparison) TALKING POINTS FOR HOST Start with most dramatic case, save methodology for second half, position her as myth-buster Risk: Don't ask about active cases; she's bound by confidentiality.
