Show overview
Thumb War has been publishing since 2022, and across the 4 years since has built a catalogue of 329 episodes, alongside 9 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 300 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a several-times-a-week cadence.
Episodes typically run an hour to ninety minutes — most land between 49 min and 1h 8m — 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 Comedy show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed 5 days ago, with 49 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2024, with 104 episodes published. Published by Bleav + Rachel Selig & Jason Doyle.
From the publisher
Thumb War is your weekly showdown over movies, streaming series, and pop culture mayhem. Rachel and JD dive into what’s worth watching (and what deserves jail time), dishing out unfiltered recaps, reviews, and cinematic chaos. Smart-ish, savage-ish, and spoiler-heavy.
