Split proposed

The result of this discussion was to Not Split. TipsyElephant (talk) 19:14, 26 January 2022 (UTC)[reply]

I'm proposing that the episodes be split into a separate article the same way that The Last Podcast on the Left has a separate article called List of The Last Podcast on the Left episodes. Right now the episode list takes up the majority of the page and although the word count might not be extremely large I think it's still too long (WP:SIZESPLIT) or if that's not a valid reason I'd say that the episodes constitute a different article because they are a slightly different subject (WP:CONTENTSPLIT). Either way it appears to be common practice to split episode lists into their own article once they've become lengthy (Lists of episodes). TipsyElephant (talk) 02:04, 5 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

After some discussion at Wikipedia_talk:WikiProject_Podcasting#Lists_of_Episodes a few other editors and myself have come to the consensus that collapsible tables are preferred alternatives to splitting tables into separate articles, but that pre-collapsing tables is deprecated and should be avoided. I'm closing this discussion as Not Split. TipsyElephant (talk) 14:38, 3 September 2021 (UTC)[reply]

First fiction podcast

According to Michele Pariza Wacek of Podcast Magazine, this podcast was one of the first fiction podcasts out there.^[1] Is this claim even remotely true? Podcasts have been around since 2004 and audio dramas have been around since the 1880s so it seems unlikely that there aren't any fiction podcasts that were created between 2004 and 2016 when this podcast was released.

It looks like Knifepoint Horror, Project Moonbase (podcast), The Bright Sessions, Tales From Beyond the Pale, and The Moth all started before "Alice Isn't Dead", but I suppose the claim isn't that "Alice Isn't Dead" was the very first fiction podcast.
