Updated Jan. 31, 2019<\/em><\/p>\n

Once again it\u2019s time for my annual hunt for the Super Bowl on the radio around the world.<\/p>\n

Last year I had fun listening to the first Australian to call the big game for his home audience. Announcer Gerard Whateley returns for Super Bowl LIII in Atlanta<\/a> to broadcast the game on 1116 SEN Victoria<\/a>, along with 1629 SEN South Australia<\/a> and Macquarie Sports Radio digital DAB+ channels in Sydney, Brisbane and Perth.<\/p>\n

While TV broadcasters around the globe will carry Super Bowl 53, to hear it on terrestrial radio you pretty much have to be in North America, Mexico (added Jan. 31),\u00a0<\/em>the United Kingdom (added Feb. 3)<\/em>\u00a0or the land down under. If you can\u2019t watch a screen to catch the game because you\u2019re driving, working or otherwise occupied you certainly could just listen to the audio portion of the video broadcast or stream. But television and radio announcing are very different arts because radio announcers know you can\u2019t see, and so they provide much more description to help paint a mental picture.<\/p>\n

Luckily, if you can tune in to online radio, then you should be set.<\/p>\n

TuneIn Radio<\/a> typically has the Super Bowl streaming for free to all listeners\u00a0<\/del>even though regular season NFL games require a paid premium subscription.<\/p>\n

Update Feb. 3 – TuneIn is only streaming to Premium subscribers, though you can get a 30 day free trial right away.<\/em><\/p>\n

Westwood One Sports affiliate stations<\/a> in the U.S. carry the game, and you can often hear the broadcast on their streams. But it\u2019s not guaranteed because many will also black them out.<\/p>\n

Update Feb. 3 from reader Cathy Derringer – WSAI Cincinnati is definitely streaming Super Bowl LIII on its iHeartRadio stream.<\/a><\/em><\/p>\n

It\u2019s also worth checking out the New England Patriot\u2019s home station, 98.5 FM The Sports Hub<\/a>. I\u2019ll note that I tuned in to 1116 SEN in Australia over the internet, too.<\/p>\n
