The American Forces Network (AFN) has announced it will reduce the number of radio programs available through its services beginning May 1, 2025, in an effort to streamline operations.

Among the programs being cut are AFN Legacy, Freedom Rock, The Blend, and Joe Radio, along with the removal of commercially produced podcasts from its audio streaming platform, AFN Go.

Despite the reductions, AFN will continue offering a lineup of music, entertainment, and news channels through AFN Go. The network’s 24 Eagle radio stations located around the globe will remain on air, continuing to serve U.S. military communities overseas.

AFN Go has experienced significant growth in the past year, with a reported 30-percent increase in audience size. In January alone, listeners streamed nearly 480,000 hours of radio content on the platform, according to the network.

AFN Go and its television counterpart, AFN Now, are free to download and available to Department of Defense personnel overseas. Both apps can be found on Google Play, the Apple App Store, Amazon Fire, Roku, and on select smart TVs.
