For podcasters launching or refreshing a show

Podcast art that doesn't look like every other show in the feed.

Your cover art is a 300×300 pixel thumbnail in Apple Podcasts. It needs to pop at that size. Ask @slop for options that actually work small — distinct, readable, yours.

The feed problem

Your show is great. Your cover looks like clip art.

You recorded 10 episodes. The content is sharp. But the cover is something you made in Canva at 2am and it shows. In the Apple Podcasts grid, your show looks amateur next to the ones with real design. Listeners scroll past before they ever hit play.

A good cover pops at thumbnail size, reads as 'this is a real show,' and doesn't require $500 to a designer who's never heard the podcast.

Ask @slop for 8 cover options on your show's vibe. Pick the one that pops in the feed. Same artist can do episode art, guest cards, and social clips.
