Show overview
DAYS GONE PODCAST has been publishing since 2021, and across the 5 years since has built a catalogue of 55 episodes. That works out to roughly 45 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a monthly cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 35 min and 1h — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. The publisher flags most episodes as explicit, so expect adult themes or strong language throughout. It is catalogued as a EN-language Leisure show.
The show is still active — the most recent episode landed 2 months ago, though releases have slowed compared with earlier in the run. The busiest year was 2022, with 27 episodes published. Published by daysgonepod.
