Building a small webapp to live on my home server to manage my history/science/philosophy/general knowledge podcasts. And then have it connect to sonos to create my own talk radio. Scheduling to auto-play whenever I want, usually 8am M-F. Play a news podcast first thing in the morning, then defer to others.
Paired with that, a MacOS app that detects when I'm on a zoom or google meet call to auto-pause the sonos, then unpause when the call ends.
