Between listens of a BF story?
For me it was a good 6 months from when my son was born. I was still actively buying the cd's, but just no time to listen for the obvious reason.
What about you?

There’s a horror movie called Alien? That’s really offensive. No wonder everyone keeps invading you.

Just under 8 years: between listening to The Coup/ Silver Linings that was given away on the cover of DWM to the release of Warship, which was the first Big Finish play I listened to as a customer.

Eight years?!!! Crikey! I'd say I haven't even gone eight days; I love pulling out old CDs and listening to them most evenings. |

Six years in my case!
In 2007 I heard (and loved) 'Storm Warning' and 'The Chimes of Midnight' on BBC7 (R4extra as was) but I didn't know they were part of a huge catalogue...
Finally in 2013 I discovered TLATE and the rest is History. Since then, about two days would be my longest 'BF gap'.
Usually, every day is a BF day.

I tend to listen to an audio on a daily basis for last 15 year but a mixture not just BF

Maybe a month? Two weeks at least. Sometimes I just need a detox.

A couple of weeks maybe if I happened to be listening to something non-Bf while commuting. But 98% of my audio stuff is BF so that's not often.

3 months.
My ipod had broken, my iTunes was corrupted and then my labtop died (I blame my horrible aura with technical things).
Now I have a new hard drive, iTunes workes again and my ipod is happy...
And I bought a spare simple mp3 player and a larger microSD for my phone, just in case...

Same for me, I think. BF has become part of my routine. In many ways, it has taken over from television, which I barely bother with now. I'd much rather watch a DVD or listen to an audio, and most of the time, that audio is produced by Big Finish. |

I wasn't aware that I was listening to Big Finish specifically when I was a kid, just that it was " Doctor Who people" on audio. I think the longest time I went between listening to any of them was about 5-6 years. Longest time since I started collecting in 2015? 2, maybe 3 days  |

I listen all the while as l suffer from IBD and Crohns my meds make sleep sometimes an issue. I also work for myself as a IT consultant so l pull 14 hour days, l need something to occupy my otherwise racing mind. Big finish actually helps me distract, so my illness does not get me down, and on top of that l can let one half of brain relax. Audio is massively important to me.

Umm...about 14 years.. 😲
Based on buying the CD of 'Sirens of Time' sometime round the start of the Century from Lord knows where (and if I'd known then what I know now..), and my first purchase direct from Big Finish in the Summer of 2014..

I can’t actually remember specifically, but probably no more than a week or two, in cases when I’m out of town visiting folks. And if I’m flying there I usually listen on the plane. However, I don’t listen if I am riding in a car with one or more people.

Welp, now I can say I went without listening to Big Finish for a month. November 20 to December 20, while I was out of town. I usually listen in the car, but I couldn't during that time, cause I needed to GPS where I was going in an area I wasn't familiar with.

About a year, between listening to Spare Parts after it was .99 cents in 2017, to discovering Big Finish was on Spotify earlier this year and falling in love. Now I listen to at least 2 stories a day during my week day commutes, and maybe 1 total in the weekend.

Well, I have to say this is the longest I've gone without listening to Big Finish. Been staying with my daughter since September 29 and the last time I listened to a BF story was September 29 on the flight to get here. May not have much opportunity to listen for another couple of weeks, but we'll see.

Outside of 'new' releases (and my re-listen to Ravenous 1-3), maybe a month or so? I still, of course, adore Big Finish, but just thought I could just spend some time with TV 'Who'...
