Sting

A sting is a brief, sharp piece of music or sound used to punctuate segments or transitions in a podcast. Stings help signal changes in the content, such as moving from one topic to another, introducing a new segment, or emphasising important points. They add a professional touch to the podcast and make the structure more clear and engaging for listeners.

Stings can be custom-created or sourced from royalty-free music libraries. Effective use of stings enhances the overall flow and pacing of the episode, making it easier for listeners to follow along and stay engaged with the content.
