Show overview
Basic Brewing Radio has been publishing since 2005, and across the 21 years since has built a catalogue of 982 episodes. That works out to roughly 820 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a weekly cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 45 min and 55 min — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-US-language Arts show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed yesterday, with 20 episodes already out so far this year. Published by James Spencer.
