Show overview
The Upshot has been publishing since 2023, and across the 3 years since has built a catalogue of 277 episodes, alongside 2 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 240 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a several-times-a-week cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 48 min and 59 min — and the run-time is fairly consistent 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 1 weeks ago, with 38 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2024, with 107 episodes published.
From the publisher
The Upshot pulls back the curtain on your favourite sports and dives into all the stuff BBC and Sky wouldn’t touch with a bargepole: drunken antics, dressing room squabbles and the simmering sexual tension of the French football team.
