Apple Time Warp
John Romero and Craig Johnston · Craig Johnston
Show overview
Apple Time Warp has been publishing since 2013, and across the 8 years since has built a catalogue of 10 episodes. That works out to roughly 15 hours of audio in total. Releases follow an irregular cadence.
Episodes typically run an hour to ninety minutes — most land between 50 min and 1h 39m — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-language Education show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 4.4 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. Published by Craig Johnston.
