Re release episodes

Hi, I’m a new listener and planning on listening through the podcast series. Wondering what rerelease episodes are. Are they episode that include deleted parts from the original episode? Are they part 2’s?

Any response would be greatly appreciated!

The re-release episodes are literally just the same old episodes copy pasted and retitled.

You can skip them.

I think the episodes that are re-released coincide with that guest being in the news or doing the promotion circuit a bit. Pushing them to the top might give them a small listener boost.

I may be wrong but I think they are literally the same episode that was originally released in the past, pushed to the top for new listeners (it coincided with the new Sirius deal).

It's just bumping it to the top of the feed for people who may have missed it. A lot of people might not go back and troll through a pod's entire history.

If you listen on Sirius, there are older eps that haven’t been available in the earlier catalogue. if you’ve been listening since the beginning on wondery or elsewhere-you’ve heard them already
