Show overview

In Our Time: Science has been publishing since 1998, and across the 28 years since has built a catalogue of 293 episodes. That works out to roughly 200 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a monthly cadence.

Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 42 min and 47 min — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-language History show.

The show is still active — the most recent episode landed 3 months ago, though releases have slowed compared with earlier in the run. The busiest year was 1999, with 18 episodes published. Published by BBC.
