Show overview
The Pitt News Sports Podcast has been publishing since 2021, and across the 3 years since has built a catalogue of 24 episodes, alongside 1 trailer or bonus episode. That works out to roughly 7 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a roughly quarterly cadence, with the show now in its 4th season.
Episodes typically run ten to twenty minutes — most land between 14 min and 21 min — though episode length varies meaningfully from one episode to the next. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-language News 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 2022, with 11 episodes published. Published by The Pitt News.
