Show overview

Single Ladies In Your Area has been publishing since 2024, and across the 2 years since has built a catalogue of 63 episodes, alongside 10 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 45 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence.

Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 36 min and 59 min — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. The publisher flags most episodes as explicit, so expect adult themes or strong language throughout. It is catalogued as a EN-language Society & Culture show.

The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 1 weeks ago, with 12 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2025, with 37 episodes published. Published by Plosive.
