I've come to think of them as audibooks released in several parts over the duration of a year. My personal favourites are the ones on the Mongols and the fall of the Roman Republic.
I think it was the Thor's Angels episode where he explicitly mentions he is treating the series as more of an audio book. Considering the quality of his work (not to mention the price) I don't mind the wait. I definitely anticipate each new episode though. He also has the common sense series which he does much more frequently. They're really good too if your interested in current events.

For anyone interested he had a deal on his website where you can buy each and every episode for something like $50. I didn't even hesitate.
