How to play Android audio on Sonos?

Is there a way to send the audio from my Android web browser to Sonos?  I am using "Sonos Play:1" and "Sonos One" speakers.

I listen to former broadcasts on "catch-up" radio and many of these are only available on the radio station’s own web site. Sometimes these former broadcasts are available as podcasts but most are not.

For example:   https://www.globalplayer.com/catchup/lbc/uk/46vyD81/  

I seem to recall there was once an app that tried to play Andorid audio but is it still available? Is there another way to do this?

Sonos can play audio files stored on your phone, but most of the speakers do not have bluetooth or any way to wirelessly play any audio your phone plays.  Move and Roam are the exceptions, with Roam having the ability to share/group that audio with your other Sonos speakers.
