Show overview
Atlanta Monster has been publishing since 2017, and across the 8 years since has built a catalogue of 22 episodes, alongside 12 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 15 hours of audio in total. Releases follow an irregular cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 37 min and 57 min — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. Roughly 50% of episodes carry an explicit flag from the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-US-language True Crime show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 1 year ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2018, with 19 episodes published. Published by iHeartPodcasts and Tenderfoot TV.
