The Setup Man: Chicago Cubs Podcast

The Setup Man: Chicago Cubs Podcast has been publishing since 2023, and across the 3 years since has built a catalogue of 389 episodes, alongside 3 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 200 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a several-times-a-week cadence.

Episodes typically run twenty to thirty-five minutes — most land between 16 min and 42 min — with run-times ranging widely across the catalogue. 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 yesterday, with 78 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2025, with 167 episodes published. Published by Kyle Stanley.
