Radio is a Foreign Country is a listener-supported 501(c)(3) nonprofit internet radio service based in New Orleans, Louisiana, founded by cultural anthropologist Kenneth Routon. It streams 24/7 collages of off-air radio recordings, field recordings, ethnographic archives and obscure regional music from around the world. Previously a mixtape series of transmissions, the project relaunched in 2026 as a continuous global broadcast.
