Create a Wordpress Post Template

My site: [login to view URL] We run a political talk show website. We have daily shows that air Monday through Friday. Each day, I create a post with the Show's name+today's date as the Title, include a featured image, category, tags, content, audio, et cetera. I do this for 7 shows every day. I would like to have a custom post type (e.g., "Shows") displayed with a listing of available Post templates. Depending on which Show I choose determines the template to be used (different title, featured image, author, etc). Also, I would like the title to be prefilled with the Show name+ date (The John Doe 8-21-14), featured image chosen, and the author chosen, depending on which Show's template I choose. Basically, it's a big If/then statement: IF post template A is chosen, THEN add this title, choose this radio choice, choose this checklist choice, add this image, change to this author. This ought to take a proficient WP coder/designer about 15 minutes I'd guess, since after the first instance, it's just copy-and-paste and change template defaults. One caveat: I'd like to learn as the work is being done (screensharing via skype, teamviewer, or something similar).
