Show overview
Spice World has been publishing since 2020, and across the 4 years since has built a catalogue of 86 episodes, alongside 5 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 180 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a monthly cadence, with the show now in its 2nd season.
Episodes typically run over ninety minutes — most land between 1h 37m and 2h 32m — 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 Fiction show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 1.5 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2020, with 39 episodes published.
From the publisher
An inebriated exploration of Frank Herbert's Dune. Join our hosts Mike and Derek each week as they open a new bottle of wine and have a bit of a buzzed book club. Never read Dune? No worries, neither has Mike. Whether you are new to Dune, or you already know how to wear your stillsuit desert style; this podcast has something to offer. Pulling from the long out of print, Dune Encyclopedia, we can tell you stories such as: Who was Holtzman? What is it like on a Guild spaceship? How did the Baron come to power? We will be revealing some spoilers along the way, but Derek promises not to ruin any great twists in the book. After all this is Mike’s first time reading the book, and part of the fun is letting this world and its mysteries grow around you.
