Show overview
Basement Bar: Beers & Babble has been publishing since 2024, and across the 2 years since has built a catalogue of 69 episodes. That works out to roughly 100 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence.
Episodes typically run an hour to ninety minutes — most land between 1h 9m and 1h 30m — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. The publisher flags most episodes as explicit, so expect adult themes or strong language throughout. It is catalogued as a EN-language Comedy show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 1 months ago, with 2 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2024, with 62 episodes published. Published by Eddie Switek.
From the publisher
Warning! This podcast has a language of a mature nature. Spencer, Eddie, and Rodger don't know WHAT they are talking about and in no way should be taken seriously. They are idiots. In fact, this podcast should not be listened to or viewed by ANYONE!
