Show overview
BBC Radio Manchester has been publishing since 2015, and across the 2 years since has built a catalogue of 500 episodes. That works out to roughly 25 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a near-daily cadence.
Episodes typically run under ten minutes — most land between 2 min and 4 min — 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 News show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 9 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2015, with 358 episodes published. Published by Audioboom.
