Show overview
Economic Lowdown has been publishing since 2012, and across the 5 years since has built a catalogue of 21 episodes. That works out to roughly 3 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a roughly quarterly cadence.
Episodes typically run under ten minutes — most land between 7 min and 10 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 EN-US-language Education show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 8.9 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2012, with 12 episodes published. Published by St. Louis Fed.
