Show overview
WDR Zeitzeichen has been publishing since 2024, and across the 2 years since has built a catalogue of 641 episodes. That works out to roughly 160 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a near-daily cadence.
Episodes typically run ten to twenty minutes — most land between 15 min and 15 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 DE-language History show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed yesterday, with 135 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2025, with 365 episodes published. Published by WDR Kompetenzzentrum Audio & Voice.
