PodcastMenu is a simple macOS menu bar app that puts Overcast within easy reach while the user works. Instead of opening a full browser window or switching to another device, the app gives podcast listeners a small dedicated place to access their Overcast experience from the Mac menu bar. Its purpose is narrow and practical: reduce friction for people who listen to podcasts during work sessions. The project is especially useful for users who prefer lightweight utilities that stay out of the way until needed. It follows the classic macOS menu bar app pattern, making it feel more like a companion tool than a full media platform. While it is not meant to replace Overcast itself, it makes Overcast more convenient for desktop listening.
