If you spend a lot of time in terminal, your prompt is probably heavily customized. asciinema a great terminal recording tool, by default is picking up your normal configuration - which is not perfect, because probably while recording a session, you don't want to distract people with unrelated details.

You can easily address it by setting up configuration in ~/.config/asciinema/config, that contains:
[record]
; Command to record, default: $SHELL
command = /bin/sh
this makes asciinema session start with sh shell, a most likely have no customization on your system, and gives distraction-free prompt by default:
