Show overview
Hack the Planet has been publishing since 2021, and across the 3 years since has built a catalogue of 10 episodes. That works out to roughly 25 hours of audio in total. Releases follow an irregular cadence.
Episodes typically run over ninety minutes — most land between 2h 13m and 2h 44m — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. Roughly 50% of episodes carry an explicit flag from the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-US-language Comedy show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 1.8 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. Published by Symbol Crash.
