Show overview
Girl Historians has been publishing since 2023, and across the 3 years since has built a catalogue of 113 episodes, alongside 4 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 130 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a weekly cadence, with the show now in its 4th season.
Episodes typically run an hour to ninety minutes — most land between 59 min and 1h 26m — 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 Comedy show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 2 weeks ago, with 12 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2024, with 51 episodes published. Published by Blair MacMillan and Carley Thorne.
