Podcast Style

Generate Interview Podcasts From Any Source

Turn a URL, YouTube video, PDF, or topic into a polished interview-format episode — complete with host questions, guest answers, and natural back-and-forth. No guests required.

Episode length: 60–180 min (Joe Rogan Style template) or custom

The interview format is the most trusted structure in podcasting — a curious host, an expert guest, and a conversation that pulls out knowledge listeners can't get anywhere else. PodGorilla's AI simulates both sides of the conversation from your source material, modeled after the long-form depth of the Joe Rogan Style template (60–180 min). Use it to give any topic a human, dialogue-driven treatment that feels genuine and engaging — without scheduling a single guest.

What Makes PodGorilla's Interview Format Unique

Dual-Voice AI Personas
PodGorilla assigns distinct host and guest voices from its 300+ voice library, each with separate tones, pacing, and speaking styles to sound like two real people in conversation.
Source-Grounded Questions
The AI reads your source material — URL, PDF, YouTube video, or topic — and generates interview questions that surface the most interesting angles, tensions, and insights naturally.
Joe Rogan Style Template
Select the Joe Rogan Style named template for long-form depth (60–180 min), or configure a shorter 20–40 min version. The conversational DNA stays the same regardless of length.
Emotion Controls Per Voice
Set tone independently for host and guest — authoritative, casual, energetic, or calm. Adjust emotion controls to add warmth, urgency, or curiosity to any segment of the conversation.

The result is a coherent, natural-sounding two-voice conversation. Learn more in our interview podcast format guide.
