Hark is a new way to experience the best of podcasts. Time Magazine included it in its "Best Inventions of 2021" list and Hark won the "Vision Award" from American Public Media for being the experience "most likely to reinvent journalism and media."
Here’s how it works: Hark editors curate genius podcast moments into ‘Harklists’ - podcast mixtapes - that let you discover new voices, stories, perspectives… and new podcasts!
We create Harklists on everything from “History’s Most Audacious Heists,” to “Unleash Your Inner Optimist,” “NBA Weekly,” “Little Known New York Food History,” “Celebrating Joan Didion” and so much more.
Every week, you’ll receive “Your Weekly Hark” - a Harklist of podcast moments curated just for you.
And of course, you can use Hark to listen to all of your favorite podcasts too. Hark is an easy-to-use, full-featured podcast player that lets you choose your listening speed, create a queue, pick up where you left off and listen on CarPlay or smart speakers.

A lifeboat on the open sea of millions of podcasts.The way topics and clips from podcasts are organized makes it easy to navigate; on a recent weekend I learned more about topical subjects (NFT’s and the Electoral College) by sampling a few short clips on each from different podcasts, ran across a fresh interview with one of my favorite authors on a podcast I didn’t know existed, and dug into some music topic archives where I learned about the Beatles and the roots of “back masking”, and how the Beastie Boys recorded their first single. Fun community way to discover new podcasts, hear highlights about new topics from a variety of podcasts and points of view, and dig deep into topics.
It’s the best.

I am a podcast NUT and Hark is the app that my brain would have dreamed up if it could have. It’s beautiful and is chock-full of podcast moments I can’t find anywhere else, literally, and that I can’t stop listening to. A Harkllist, like the Song Exploder one, took me to another place. I pretty much forgot where I was when I was listening to it. I think this is solving the podcast discoverability problem for both listeners and podcasters. Spending time in Hark is such a treat…it’s impossible to not be moved by what you hear, impossible not to take something away with you when you leave.
You Need This

If you feel like you’re drowning in podcasts people insist you should be listening to, I have one more recommendation that’s ironically going to solve your problem. Hark curates the best of podcasting world allowing you to catch the stuff you truly NEED to hear. The interesting factoids that will intrigue you. The hilarious stories that you can share with friends. I get it, you only have time for the good stuff—Hark gets you the good stuff.
Feels like podcast mixtapes!

Being on Hark is like being able to choose exactly what you want to listen to in a way that goes beyond just having a favorite podcast. I am particularly enjoying the harklist on the best moments of artists talking about creating their own songs. Hark also has now replaced all my other news apps—why listen to one opinion when Hark lets me listen to the best bits from all different sides of a top story!
