Show overview

Batman: The Animated Podcast has been publishing since 2015, and across the 9 years since has built a catalogue of 95 episodes, alongside 3 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 110 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a roughly quarterly cadence.

Episodes typically run an hour to ninety minutes — most land between 54 min and 1h 34m — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. Roughly 38% of episodes carry an explicit flag from the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-language TV & Film show.

The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 1.6 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2015, with 23 episodes published. Published by Justin Michael.

From the publisher

Welcome to an interview variety show for your ears hosted by Justin Michael. Each episode brings together a fan of Batman: The Animated Series or a special guest who worked on the TV show to discuss their favorite episodes from the legendary 90’s cartoon. Why? Because I love this show. You probably do, too.
