Show overview
Laura Erickson's For the Birds has been publishing since 2023, and across the 3 years since has built a catalogue of 287 episodes. That works out to roughly 30 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a several-times-a-week cadence.
Episodes typically run under ten minutes — most land between 5 min and 7 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-US-language Science & Medicine show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 5 days ago, with 69 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2024, with 106 episodes published. Published by Laura Erickson.
