Uptown Audio is a student-run podcast network that calls the University of North Carolina at Charlotte its home. Uptown Audio is an organization under the Student Niner Media. We currently offers our show hosts' podcasts on platforms such as Spotify, Amazon Music, Google Podcasts, etc.
Uptown Audio began as a student project to update its predecessor, Radio Free Charlotte, by offering the content streamed on the Radio Station in a much more accessible medium. Thus the idea to transition from a Radio Station to a Podcast Network was born. In the Spring Semester of 2020, Radio Free Charlotte became Uptown Audio. The dream was kept alive by the hard work of the faithful members of the organization as it faced hardship for the first 2 years of transition. Now marking three years since its creation Uptown Audio is only beginning to stretch its legs as new members become familiar with the process and work while older members work to spread the message of the work that is being done in our studio.
