Show overview
RCIA Foundations has been publishing since 2020, and across the 6 years since has built a catalogue of 54 episodes. That works out to roughly 70 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a roughly quarterly cadence, with the show now in its 6th season.
Episodes typically run an hour to ninety minutes — most land between 1h 11m and 1h 28m — 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 Religion & Spirituality show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 1 weeks ago, with 20 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2026, with 20 episodes published. Published by Jeffrey Tiel.
