Show overview
The American West launched in 2025 and has put out 51 episodes, alongside 1 trailer or bonus episode in the time since. That works out to roughly 40 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 50 min and 57 min — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-US-language History show.
