Show overview
Our Debut Album launched in 2016 and has put out 14 episodes in the time since. That works out to roughly 10 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a monthly cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 48 min and 54 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-language Music show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 8.9 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. Published by Dave Shumka and Graham Clark.

Our fifth song draws on such influences as Cake, Billy Joel, and those big sand-filled ashtrays that used to be in hotels.
