Static Radio Podcast Discovery

Indie shows, ambient & sleep

Free · In-App Purchases

Static is community radio for podcasts. Break up with the algorithm and discover indie podcasts on a live dial: nine hand-curated stations of independent shows, playing any time of day. Everyone hears the same show at the same moment, so you're listening with others, just like real radio. Discovery is the whole point. Static broadcasts unfound sound and unfiltered voices: working journalists, oddball historians, field recordists, makers, organizers, and late-night weirdos you'd never think to search for. We put real work into keeping corporate-owned and AI-generated shows off the dial, so what surfaces is small, singular, and made by people. THE STATIONS - MAKE: workshop, repair, craft, fabrication, DIY - UNITE: labor, tenant organizing, mutual aid, movement history - NEWS: reported journalism and audio documentary, no punditry - LEARN: history, science, reported essays, criticism - WORK: lofi beats, smooth instrumentals, ambient focus textures - NATURE: birdsong, rain, water, weather, field recordings - WEIRD: paranormal, UFOs, folklore, the fringe - SLEEP: sleep stories, yoga nidra, brown noise - SHEILA B: a hand-picked WFMU archive KEEP WHAT YOU FIND Heart any show to save it to your Faves. Export your Faves as OPML and import them into any podcast app to subscribe for good. Static is the radio that sends you home with the shows, not a walled garden that traps them. BUILT TO BE TOUCHED A tactile, hand-printed look and a physical dial you actually spin. Mute with a tap, share what you stumble onto. No account, no sign-up, nothing to set up. BULLETINS BETWEEN SHOWS Static is free to listen. Some stations carry 30-second community bulletins between shows, from small businesses, organizers, individuals, and the occasionally kooky. They never interrupt an episode: every show plays in full and unaltered, straight from the podcaster's own feed. RUN BY ACTUAL PEOPLE Static is a small independent project. If you love it, leave a tip in the app. Know an independent show that belongs on the dial? Suggest it at staticradio.app. Also on iPhone Duo, iPad, and Mac. Spin the dial and see what finds you.

Ratings & Reviews

  • This app has not received enough ratings or reviews to display an overview.

Smoother spins: when you turn the dial, each station's cover art and the color beneath it now change together, frame for frame. Live listener counts are right from the moment you open Static: every station on the dial shows how many people are tuned in straight away, and new listeners appear within seconds. Supporting Static is easier: the coffee sheet now offers a quick App Store rating alongside the tips. After you've hearted a few shows, Static may ask once, and Not now is always one tap away.
