No Instructions
Bob and Josh work A LOT at I Like To Make Stuff. The No Instructions podcast is a dedicated time for them to play with toys, build Lego sets and chat about life, kids and nerd culture. And of course, the show can often go in really random directions, because there are literally, No Instructions. So, put away your work, grab your favorite model kit, and have some designated play time.
Show overview
No Instructions has been publishing since 2018, and across the 5 years since has built a catalogue of 136 episodes. That works out to roughly 140 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence.
Episodes typically run an hour to ninety minutes — most land between 57 min and 1h 6m — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 3.3 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2019, with 42 episodes published.
