Use ElevenLabs: record 10–20 minutes of clean audio per speaker (same mic/room), label takes Host/Guest_date_session. Build 2–3 style variants per clone (neutral, warm, brisk). Batch-generate intros/outros via ElevenLabs API with templated scripts and export 48 kHz WAVs. File naming: Ep##_Section_Speaker_v1.wav (e.g., Ep12_INTRO_Host_v1.wav). Licensing: get signed guest consent, store commercial-use agreements, and version-control each cloned model.
