Show overview
The World’s Okayest Medic Podcast has been publishing since 2020, and across the 6 years since has built a catalogue of 356 episodes. That works out to roughly 90 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a weekly cadence.
Episodes typically run twenty to thirty-five minutes — most land between 26 min and 43 min — 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 Health show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 3 days ago, with 37 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2025, with 74 episodes published. Published by Mike.
