Show overview
What the Hell Is Going On has been publishing since 2022, and across the 4 years since has built a catalogue of 226 episodes, alongside 15 trailers or bonus episodes. That works out to roughly 200 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a weekly cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 48 min and 1h 1m — 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 News show.
The show is actively publishing — the most recent episode landed yesterday, with 41 episodes already out so far this year. The busiest year was 2024, with 64 episodes published. Published by AEI Podcasts.
