Show overview
Legal Docket has been publishing since 2020, and across the 2 years since has built a catalogue of 64 episodes. That works out to roughly 35 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a monthly cadence, with the show now in its 3rd season.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 33 min and 41 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 Government show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 3.7 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. Published by WORLD Radio.
