The person behind the platform

I’m Ray Brown. I make space for people to speak.

I’m an American who has made Budapest home. Through Rayofla Kft., my media production company, I work across storytelling, video, audio and digital publishing.

“Some stories need more than a quick introduction. I built Budapest.fm to give those conversations a home, and give people a way to keep listening.”

A podcast can become an ongoing relationship with the people who listen. A recorder can bring in a voice you would otherwise never hear. I see value in both: publishing your own conversations and making it easier for others to contribute theirs.

Choose your next step

A home for a show. An invitation to speak.

The right route depends on whether you publish a podcast, want to hear from an audience, or have a collaboration in mind.

01

List or host a podcast.

Submit a public RSS feed for catalog review, or explore hosting with episode pages, distribution and optional publishing tools. Listing and hosting are separate routes.

For podcasters
02

Invite useful voices.

Put a branded recorder on your site so readers, customers, guests or communities can contribute audio. Your team reviews submissions privately and decides what happens next.
