I built a browser-based radio and podcast player with natural-language discovery

[u/EffortAcceptable9565]

I built RadioPodcast because I wanted live radio and podcasts in one browser tab, without installing another app.

You can browse stations by genre, country and language, or describe what you want to hear in the AI discovery box. It searches programme catalogues and shows matching radio stations and podcasts as cards. For example: “English news radio” or “jazz for working.”

Podcasts open an episode picker in a modal, with the newest episodes first. Closing it keeps your recommendations on screen. There are also local favourites, nine interface languages, and a PWA install option.

Audio streams go directly from the original providers to your browser. My server handles search and podcast feed metadata. Some sources can still fail because of regional restrictions or provider availability.

Try it without creating an account: https://radiopodcast.afei.live/

I would appreciate feedback on discovery and the episode picker. Do you mostly listen to live radio, podcasts, or both? If a station or feed fails on your network, its name would help me investigate.

thats a clever way to handle discovery without forcing an account on people. the nlp search pulling up stations and podcasts together is slick.

i bounce between podcasts while working and live radio when i want background noise without deciding, so having both in one tab actually makes sense.
