Inspired by a recent post, an old-timey radio station for my wife's newsletter

I'm not sure how they built theirs, but here's how I built mine:

- Parse the newsletter RSS feed - Summarize the most recent post with an LLM in the style of a fast-talking 1920s transatlantic radio broadcaster - Generate an audio file by synthesizing a custom voice I generated by sampling the recap narrator of Avatar: The Legend of Korra - Upload the file to a cloud object store and return the playback URL to the client - Repeat steps 1 - 4 each week until the heat death of the universe

This will run autonomously with new weekly content for as long as the newsletter persists.

Built with Next.js, TypeScript, Tailwind & Vercel
