Featured episode

Eight shows. One stubborn studio in Gazi.

Independent podcasts on culture, business, music and the things in between, recorded in person since 2018 — never on Zoom.

How we work

Recorded in the room. Pressed to vinyl. Sent to your headphones.

No call links, no latency, no talking over each other. Every episode starts with two people at the same table in Gazi, and ends as something you can stream, read, or put on a turntable.

    In the room

    Two chairs, one table, three microphones. We record in person at Studio B and keep the takes that breathe — including the pauses.

  2. 02

    In the mix

    Edited for sense, not for slickness. Levels, room tone and pacing get a full pass, and nothing gets tightened past the point of sounding human.

  3. 03

    In your ears

    Out on Sunday, everywhere you listen, with a full transcript. Selected seasons get pressed to vinyl for the archive.

What listeners and guests say.

“I sat down with Maria for *Operators* in March, expecting a tidy 30-minute interview about my bakery. Two hours later we were still talking about flour suppliers. She had read every Lifo profile I'd ever appeared in, and the transcript came back cleaner than I could have hoped.”
Christina Soulioti
Pagrati, Athens — 5 stars
“I drive to Larissa twice a week for work. *The Loud Room* with Andreas is the only thing that makes the road tolerable. The Aristides Antonas episode reset how I look at every balcony in my own neighbourhood.”
Nikos Vlahakis
Kifisia — 5 stars
“Being a guest on *Notes from the Aegean* was the most prepared interview I've done. Maria sent me the chapter outline a week before, and the cited reading list ended up in my own postgraduate syllabus.”
Dr. Aliki Karampela
Exarchia — 5 stars
“I came to a *Sound Check* live taping at Romantso last November and bought the *Side B* tote on the way out. Both the show and the tote held up better than my expectations. The merch is very obviously printed by people who care about the cotton.”
Eleni Vakouli
food writer, Koukaki — 5 stars
“I subscribe to maybe forty podcasts and SonicCast is the only Greek-language network where I can read along in English thanks to the transcripts. *Hard Coded* with Yannis is now in my regular rotation; the episode on Greek civic-tech procurement is, frankly, embarrassing for the Berlin scene.”
Mark Goodall
Berlin — 5 stars
