Show overview
Podcasts – QB Smith has been publishing since 2018, and across the 2 years since has built a catalogue of 10 episodes. That works out to roughly 30 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a roughly quarterly cadence.
Episodes typically run over ninety minutes — most land between 3h and 3h 4m — 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 Music show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 6.1 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2020, with 9 episodes published. Published by QB Smith.
