Podcast Audiogram Story - Waveform Quote Template

A podcast audiogram template for turning the best 15 seconds of an episode into a vertical clip. The fictional show is Build Log, a podcast about making products, and episode 42 features Jonas Reyes, founder of Relay, on shipping the wrong thing. Four panes: the cover art tile, a first quote - "We shipped the wrong thing for a year." - over a lime waveform, a second quote - "Nobody told us. They just stopped using it." - and a close with "Listen to the full episode", platform chips, and a "Play ep. 42" button.

#What Makes This Template Stand Out

It has the audiogram look people recognize - cover art, a waveform, captions - without needing an audiogram tool. The cover pane shows a large square tile with "BUILD LOG" over a lime triangle, the episode title "Ep. 42 - Jonas Reyes on shipping the wrong thing", and a "38 MIN" chip. On the next pane the tile moves up and shrinks, and on the third and fourth panes it tucks into the top-left corner next to "Jonas Reyes", so the show's identity stays on screen the whole time as one continuous object.

The captions are the content. Each quote sits in large Space Grotesk with real curly quote marks, directly above a lime timestamp - "12:40" and "12:58" - that tells listeners where to find the moment in the full episode. A small "- Jonas" signs the second quote. The palette is charcoal #141416 with off-white type and one lime #c6ff3d accent for the waveform, timestamps, and CTA, and every meta line - "BUILD LOG · EP. 42", "GUEST · FOUNDER, RELAY", "New episodes every Tuesday" - is set in Space Mono.

The waveform is the rhythm. It draws across the lower half on each of the last three panes, so every new caption arrives with a fresh sweep of bars. Quotes appear letter by letter with letter-fade, timestamps and the "38 MIN" chip count up with number-roll, and the "Play ep. 42" pill pops in at the end.

• Lime waveform that redraws on every quote pane with the draw animation
• Two captioned guest quotes with rolling timestamps pointing to the full episode
• Cover-art tile that travels from hero to top to corner across the story
• Listen close with Spotify, Apple Podcasts, and RSS chips and a "Play ep. 42" CTA
• Charcoal and lime palette with Space Grotesk captions and Space Mono meta
• 4 panes at 1080x1920, a 14.4-second MP4 to pair with your audio clip

#Who Should Use This Template

• Podcasters who want a consistent audiogram style for every episode without a subscription to a separate audiogram app.
• Podcast producers and agencies making weekly social clips for several shows - one template per show, new quotes each week.
• Video interview hosts and YouTubers who want a captioned vertical clip for Shorts and Reels.
• Brands with a company podcast that need episode promos that match the rest of their social content.

#Best Use Cases

#Podcast Audiogram Template for Reels, Shorts, and TikTok

Export the MP4, open your video editor, and lay it over the 15-second audio excerpt the quotes come from. Because the waveform is drawn, not driven by audio, it looks the same in every clip, which becomes part of your show's recognizable style. Post the result to Reels, YouTube Shorts, and TikTok with the timestamps in the caption.

#Silent Episode Promo in Stories

On release day, post the MP4 straight to Instagram Stories with no audio at all. The captions deliver the hook on their own, and the last pane tells viewers where to listen. Add a link sticker pointing to the episode.

#Episode Page and Link in Bio

Publish the story as a hosted PaneFlow link for your bio, or embed it on the episode's show-notes page and export it to HTML, React, Vue, Svelte, or Next.js. Visitors see the two strongest lines of the episode before they reach the player.
