Show overview

Silk And Steel Podcast has been publishing since 2019, and across the 4 years since has built a catalogue of 86 episodes. That works out to roughly 95 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a monthly cadence.

Episodes typically run an hour to ninety minutes — most land between 46 min and 1h 28m — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-language Society & Culture show.
