Show overview

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. The publisher flags most episodes as explicit, so expect adult themes or strong language throughout. It is catalogued as a EN-language Leisure show.

The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 2 weeks ago, with 17 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2022, with 53 episodes published. Published by Catherine Harris & Jocelyn Startz.
