Show overview
Trigger Point has been publishing since 2016, and across the 4 years since has built a catalogue of 39 episodes. That works out to roughly 50 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a roughly quarterly cadence, with the show now in its 5th season.
Episodes typically run an hour to ninety minutes — most land between 1h 7m and 1h 25m — 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 TV & Film show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 5.6 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2019, with 11 episodes published. Published by vishae.
From the publisher
Trigger Point is a Melbourne-based, monthly show about books, tv series or anime episodes that we've recently consumed. From fluffy YA novels to heart-string-tugging Korean dramas, fan-servicing high school anime to hardcore sci-fi novels, if we've watched or read them, we'll talk about it.
