Show overview

Toolsday has been publishing since 2015, and across the 6 years since has built a catalogue of 130 episodes. That works out to roughly 60 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a fortnightly cadence.

Episodes typically run twenty to thirty-five minutes — most land between 25 min and 31 min — and the run-time is fairly consistent across the catalogue. None of the episodes are flagged explicit by the publisher. It is catalogued as a EN-language Technology show.

The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 5 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2016, with 30 episodes published. Published by Spec Network, Inc..
