Writing - Podcast Script - Recurring Elements

I'm finally starting to get my educational podcast together, which will focus on specific writing/editing topics, in small chunks (so they can be played in a class if the teacher wants to). The goal is for each episode to be under 6 minutes, as I remember always trying to find the fastest/shortest ones.

Would it be better to try to have the Intro/Conclusion absolutely standard (record once, plug them in to each episode) so that people can just mentally skip over it:

Or would it be better to mix it up each time, keeping the time about the same, within a few seconds, but adding humor/interest right from the beginning?

Are there any guidelines? Are "couch gags" only allowed for overall silly podcasts on casual topics? (My goal is to be educational and funny.)

Or will it be a waste of time if the Intro/Conclusion are identical every episode?

(Conclusion will mostly be the same each time, as it will be very brief credits, with sources and further resources going in the podcast-notes & website, not read into the 'cast.)
