What it actually is

Radio 1 and Radio 2 stream live and almost everything is available on demand, giving you unlimited free Cantonese news, phone-ins, drama and culture programming recorded for Hong Kong people rather than for learners. It is the most reliable free source of native Cantonese audio outside Hong Kong, since the commercial streamers geo-block. Nothing is graded or transcribed and the site is clunky to browse, so save individual programmes you like rather than trying to navigate it each time.
