Working for Crusoe
foreign affairs and economics for busy people
Sam Park and John Ramey
Show overview
Working for Crusoe has been publishing since 2022, and across the 3 years since has built a catalogue of 100 episodes. That works out to roughly 60 hours of audio in total. Releases follow a weekly cadence.
Episodes typically run thirty-five to sixty minutes — most land between 35 min and 38 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 News show.
The catalogue appears to be on hiatus or wound down — the most recent episode landed 1.2 years ago, with no new episodes in over a year. The busiest year was 2024, with 46 episodes published. Published by Sam Park and John Ramey.
