Show overview
Mental Health In Minnesota has been publishing since 2017, and across the 7 years since has built a catalogue of 56 episodes. That works out to roughly 30 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a roughly quarterly cadence.
Episodes typically run twenty to thirty-five minutes — most land between 22 min and 44 min — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-US-language Education show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 1.6 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2017, with 17 episodes published. Published by NAMI Minnesota.
