Read Aloud to Me

I hacked this together to listen to PGs Essays in audio format. I have used it for several hours now, quite enjoyable. Features * open ai text to speech * like a podcast but with content from blogs / articles * somewhere between a podcast and an audiobook * pick up from where you left off and see what you have and have not listened to Totally free, I may add a "no api key" option if folks enjoy it. Feedback is absolutely welcome. It is really quite simple but it is quite useful to me. Perhaps this exists somewhere else already but I don't think it does with the feature set I described.
