How to play podcasts on your Amazon Alexa
If you want to walk freely around your house listening to your podcasts on all your Alexa-enabled devices, we’ve got you covered.
Alexa is Amazon’s voice-operated virtual personal assistant that can perform a wide range of functions from reminding you of an appointment to checking the weather or listening to music on Spotify. It is an ideal tool for hands-free listening and playing a variety of content on Alexa-enabled devices.
In order to listen to podcasts on your Amazon Alexa, you first have to link your podcast service to your Alexa. Here is how to link your podcast service to your Alexa:
1. Open Alexa app
2. Tap “More” (the three lines icon)
3. Select “Settings”
4. Scroll down to select “Music and Podcasts”
5. Select “Link New Service”
6. Select the service you want to listen to a podcast on
7. Select “Enable to Use.” Depending on the service you may have to login to your account to link it.
Once you have linked your podcast service to your Alexa you can ask Alexa to play your desired podcast by saying “Alexa, play RadioLab on Spotify.”
Happy listening!
