Quick end-to-end:
1) Prompt ChatGPT (API) to create an outline + full script using a reusable prompt.
2) Minor human edit → export SSML or plain text.
3) Send script to ElevenLabs TTS (choose voice + SSML pauses) → produce MP3/WAV.
4) Zapier picks up file, pushes to podcast host, and schedules episode + show notes.
Ballpark per 30-min episode: drafting $1–10, TTS $2–15, Zapier/hosting $0–20/month — total roughly $3–45. Adjust for model tier and voice quality.
