Show overview
Monster: DC Sniper has been publishing since 2019, and across the 6 years since has built a catalogue of 20 episodes, alongside 5 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 15 hours of audio in total. Releases follow an irregular cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 36 min and 46 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 True Crime show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 1 year ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2020, with 18 episodes published. Published by iHeartPodcasts and Tenderfoot TV.
