podcast episode

Single show segment

A podcast episode is a single installment of a podcast series, typically an audio file available for streaming or download.

Episodes vary widely in length—from a few minutes to several hours—and may stand alone or continue ongoing narratives: I listened to three episodes on my commute.

The term follows television convention, where shows are divided into episodes within seasons.
