The name reads AM to PM, and that is the whole promise. Switch on at five in the morning or five past midnight and the station already sounds like the hour you are living in.
From first light to the school run.
Press play and you join the station at whatever hour you happen to arrive. Turn the dial to hear what each part of the day is built for.
For the people already up: bakers, nurses on handover, anyone driving while it is still dark. Low volume, clear information, nothing shouted at you.
Radio AM2PM
From the first alarm to the last light.
The stream is not answering right now. Turn the dial above to see what each hour of the day is built for, and press play again in a little while.
All times Australian Eastern. The stream runs 24 hours. Pick a part of the day to see what it is built for.
05:0005:00 to 06:00
For the people already up: bakers, nurses on handover, anyone driving while it is still dark. Low volume, clear information, nothing shouted at you.
The named programmes inside the day, with the hours they keep.
The morning programme for people who have somewhere to be. Everything you need before you leave the house arrives in short, repeated blocks, so missing one does not mean missing it, and the music between them never asks for more attention than you have at that hour.
One hour that assumes you are eating at your desk or in the ute. A single subject taken properly, an interview that is allowed to finish, and a run of songs to walk back in on.
Three hours that carry the day from the last bell to the front door. It gets faster as it goes, because that is what the afternoon does, and it hands you over to the evening rather than stopping dead.
After hours talk and music for shift workers, students, insomniacs and anyone whose day has an extra chapter in it. Fewer interruptions, longer answers, and a standing invitation to call in.
The weekend version of the same idea. Records played at length, sequences allowed to build, and no hard breaks to snap you out of whatever you are doing with your morning.
Same address, same station, on whatever you already have.
Press play on any page of this site and you join the station live, at whatever hour you happen to arrive. Nothing to install, nothing to sign up for, and no closedown message waiting for you at either end of the day.
The stream keeps running in a mobile browser with the phone in your pocket, so a commute is one continuous hour rather than two halves with a gap in the middle of it.
Set the stream up once and the speaker keeps the station's hours for you. Ask for it before dawn and it comes on quiet and practical. Leave it running into the evening and it warms and slows without anybody touching a thing. Same address, same station, a different room of the day every time you walk past it.
Whatever you already use to play music through the car speakers will carry the stream, including the time called at the top of every hour, which tells you whether you are running late without your hands leaving the wheel.
Radio AM2PM starts from one idea: a day has a shape, and radio should follow it. The name reads as AM to PM. From the first alarm to the last light the station moves through the hours with you, instead of playing the same undifferentiated wallpaper at six in the morning and ten at night.
That means the schedule is the product. Mornings are short, practical and repeat themselves, because nobody is listening for very long. Mid morning opens out, because the people still with us have time. Afternoons quicken into the drive, evenings soften, and the overnight hours are built for quiet rather than for filling silence. Cross from one part of the day to the next and you should hear the change before you notice the clock.
We broadcast online from Melbourne. The schedule runs to Australian Eastern time, and the time is called at the top of every hour, which matters more than it sounds when you are listening from another state, another country, or from a night shift where the hours have come loose. There is no dead air and no closedown. The station runs 24 hours because a day does.
What you will hear across a full rotation: music chosen for the hour rather than for a chart position, conversation with people who know one thing well, and the practical information a day actually needs. What you will not hear: manufactured outrage, stunts, or a host talking over the end of a song to prove they are still there.

It reads as AM to PM. The station is built around the full arc of a day, from the pre dawn hours through to the small hours on the other side, with the sound of the station changing as the day changes. It is not a two hour programme and it is not a time slot: it is the whole day, in order.
We broadcast online from Melbourne, Australia. Every time on the schedule is Australian Eastern time, shown in 24 hour format, and we call the time at the top of every hour so listeners in other zones can work out where they are without checking a phone.
No. The live stream is free to play in any browser, with no account, no app and no subscription. If you want to support the station, listening at the odd hours and telling someone else about it genuinely helps more than anything else you could do.
Live is the point of a station like this, so the first answer is that the same hour comes around again tomorrow, built the same way. Where a conversation deserves a second life beyond its slot, we will say so on air and make it available from the programme page.
School pick up through to knock off. The tempo lifts, the phone lines open, and the drive home starts before you do.
