3/24/26: Automating My Podcast Workflow with Claude Code

ByMaestro

Been a minute but I’m back! At least for the next 20 minutes. I’ve been building, just not vlogging, and recently rebranded my podcast to Prompting Curiosity, and went all-in on Claude and Claude Code.

My old podcast workflow was too damn much copying and pasting across Claude, Google Drive, WordPress, and ConvertKit (I hate calling it Kit), so I automated it. I had Claude Code build a custom Node.js command-line tool: one command generates show notes, a newsletter draft, Drive docs, an image prompt, and preview text. Another command pushes everything to WordPress and creates the email in ConvertKit.

I hit bugs. Claude Code fixed them. Basic technical literacy and not giving up goes a long way.

Next build: a custom dashboard/CRM.
