Show overview
The Creative Coding Podcast has been publishing since 2011, and across the 6 years since has built a catalogue of 74 episodes. That works out to roughly 45 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a monthly cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 38 min and 58 min — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 9.3 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2016, with 29 episodes published.
