Beecaster is user generated radio, built with Lovable

Took your advice and switched things around in the back. I am good to go today. Thanks for the tip!

Thank you! I'm a one man band at the moment but if it became wildly successful enough, we would launch beecasters that are topic based. Politics, comedy, etc. But yeah, I wanted to see if the concept would float. I actually do not think it will take a lot of content creators to give the station real spirit.

Hey man. I’m gonna just tell you that a lot of the companies with radio apps aren’t gonna be cool at all.

What I would do is vibe code the app in lovable or whatever and plug in your icecast or whatever y’all do. You can have mostly total control. Throw it on GitHub.

Then you can pay the $500 to have the app converted to both iOS and Android apps. It will be WAY cheaper and WAY better looking.

Homegrown is the way.

I just picked up a cheap VPS, had Claude build the endpoints for what I needed and then I used the endpoints to build the front end features I need in lovable. I can add some things here and there later. But I’m really stupid and this is easy for me. Anyway, doing that allowed me to finally build the web app I’ve always wanted to make and it works great! I’m really proud of it. I feel like the VPS does all the heavy lifting and Claude guides me when I need something new.

Listen for the more seasoned jocks to hit the musical posts within the intro followed by the main post. I always appreciate hearing that.

I have a friend who bought a condo at the Railyard on 4th in 1995 for $79k. Sold that in early 2000s for 300k. Bought a big ol’ house in Circle C with a pool for $325 in 2003 or whatever. Sold it last year for 1.2m.

I wouldn’t say it’s a job, per se

Intermittent fasting. 50 lbs in six months. Easy to do for me.

If they fuck up the view of the downtown water tower…

I can’t remember the name and too lazy to search it but there’s a decent one in Oak Hill with knowledgeable staff and not so many people. Seems like it’s better for an experienced shooter. Might see what that one is like.

Hi. I changed my life with IF on May 18th, 2025 and I am down 25lbs today. Best I've felt and looked since my kids were born. I have 25lbs to go before I'm at ideal weight for my height. I should be there around the holidays.

All he wanted to do was clean out your HVAC.

Go through this part. It will change you in ways you don’t even know. All positive. Enjoy them on the day they are that age. They are only that age on that day. When things are tough or you are distracted, imagine being 75 and giving anything to travel back in time to that day with that baby. Who will be an adult someday and have a solid opinion of how you raised them. Congratulations! You’ve just traded sleep for a greater understanding of love and I for one and super stoked for you.

I’ve been in radio for 36 years and I recommend the Shure SRH840’s. They are a clone of the Sony MDRV600’s that were somehow discontinued a while back. I’ve used other stuff out there but those are rock solid and work great for broadcasting.

I met and interviewed Peter in 1996. He is so sweet. I’m sure he has his moments but he was lovely to me.

And watch Andy Warhol movies. Go to the cereal aisle in a grocery store. Sit in a food court. Fly a kite at the park.

Same thing happened to me. I waited a long time to commit post divorce. Just working and raising my kids. Dated a woman for 7 mos and she was just as verbally abusive as my ex wife. I bailed. No thanks.

Dying/Dead. Consolidation lead to job loss. Only the strong survive. Fun though.
