Show overview
The California Golden Bearcast has been publishing since 2015, and across the 11 years since has built a catalogue of 315 episodes. That works out to roughly 310 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence.
Episodes typically run an hour to ninety minutes — most land between 39 min and 1h 14m — 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 Sports show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 3 days ago, with 10 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2021, with 47 episodes published.
