Sorry, Partner has been publishing since 2021, and across the 5 years since has built a catalogue of 181 episodes, alongside 12 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 120 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 32 min and 51 min — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next.
