Show overview

Dear Chelsea has been publishing since 2021, and across the 5 years since has built a catalogue of 330 episodes, alongside 70 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 270 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a weekly cadence, with the show now in its 7th season.

Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 47 min and 1h 1m — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. The publisher flags most episodes as explicit, so expect adult themes or strong language throughout. It is catalogued as a EN-US-language Comedy show.

The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed earlier today, with 31 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2025, with 81 episodes published. Published by iHeartPodcasts.
