Show overview
Compact Biographies has been publishing since 2014, and across the 12 years since has built a catalogue of 311 episodes, alongside 1 trailer or bonus episode. That works out to roughly 55 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence, with the show now in its 21st season.
Episodes typically run under ten minutes — most land between 8 min and 11 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-language History show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 1 weeks ago, with 39 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2024, with 59 episodes published. Published by Wayne Armstrong.
