Show overview
Desert Island Dicks has been publishing since 2017, and across the 9 years since has built a catalogue of 318 episodes. That works out to roughly 240 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 40 min and 55 min — 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-language Comedy show.
There hasn’t been a new episode in the last ninety days; the most recent episode landed 4 months ago. The busiest year was 2023, with 71 episodes published. Published by Sync Clap.
