    Today I ask Siri to play TodayFM like I have for the past month or two and it selects todayfm 95.1ph provided by tune in... how can I get it to play the correct one?

    I have had this issue on and off and comes back after nearly every iOS update. the last time I kept getting with an jussi radio station or some piece of music. its o frustrating.

    I had actually read your post yesterday and that that the first I heard that HomePod could actually play a radio station .. so I tried it out last night and it worked perfectly - game changer for me as I have little or no FM signal in my house (rural) .. so i've been using a Roberts Stream for the last few years as we listen to a lot of radio.

    I've the HomePods set up as a stereo pair and normally use the GoLoud App streamed from my phone which works alright until you need to take a phone call or go outside!

    One thing I've noticed with my HomePod is that if I ask it to play RTE Radio 1, it sometimes used to play straight away, and sometimes it would say it couldn't find it.

    I finally figured out it was down to the way I was pronouncing the letter R. Irish style wouldn't play, American style, off it goes. It's down to the difference between saying Aarrrr vs Or.

    So there you go.
