      Alexa Podcasts – A Step by Step Listeners Guide

      August 4, 2020

      Podcasts are some of the most convenient means of seeking entertainment, news, and information.

      Unlike visual mediums and articles, podcasts don’t take up all of your attention. You can listen to podcasts while cooking, or riding the subway, or while driving. As such, podcasts are the perfect tools for a modern lifestyle driven by one’s ability to multitask.

      Alexa is yet another tool that’s quickly established itself as a mainstay of a modern lifestyle. Amazon’s Alexa allows you to communicate with all of your household smart devices using your voice. You can ask Alexa to play music, movies, podcasts, and control your devices.

      As such, the pairing of Alexa and podcasts seems inevitable.

      Alexa and podcasts complement each other beautifully, providing a convenient listening experience. And as such, listening to podcasts and music is one of Alexa’s most popular uses.

      However, people often get confused when navigating the world of Alexa podcasts and all of their related skills like Spotify, Apple Podcast, Pocket Cast, Stitcher, etc.

      In this article, we give you a comprehensive guide to all things Alexa podcasts.

      Introduction to Alexa Podcasts

      We’ll start this Alexa podcasts guide with a brief introduction to some of the most basic questions about Alexa podcasts. If you want to figure out how to listen to Alexa podcasts using different services, please skip to the next section of the article.

      What are Alexa podcasts?

      Alexa podcast refers to the podcasts available in Alexa’s native podcast service — TuneIn. When you ask Alexa to play a specific podcast, it will pull findings from TuneIn, unless you manually set another podcast service as the default ‘skill.’

      Can Alexa play podcasts from different services?

      Yes, in addition to Alexa’s native podcast TuneIn, Alexa can also play podcasts from other services, like Apple Podcast, Spotify, AnyPod, Stitcher, PocketCasts, and Downcast. You’ll have to add these other services as a ‘skill’ in the Alexa app to get podcasts from them. If you want, you can also set some of these podcasts as the ‘default’ podcast. We’ll discuss how you can achieve that later in this article.

      Which countries do Alexa podcasts work in?

      Alexa podcast TuneIn is available in all countries that support Alexa in general. However, the availability of different podcast skills for Alexa varies based on the service. For example, Alexa podcasts for Apple podcast is only available in the United States. Please check to see if your desired podcast skill is available in your location.

      Which echoes/devices can you listen to Alexa podcasts in?

      You can listen to Alexa podcasts in all Alexa-enabled speakers. Some of the best Alexa-enabled speakers with podcast-compatibility are Amazon Echo Dot, Amazon Echo Plus, and Ultimate Ears Megablast.

      Alexa Podcasts TuneIn

      As mentioned previously, TuneIn is the native Alexa podcast service.

      As the default Alexa podcast service, TuneIn is the simplest podcast service to access using Alexa devices. You also get a wide list of Alexa podcasts through TuneIn.

      Please continue reading for an overview of how to set up Alexa podcasts through the Alexa app or voice commands.

      How to Setup Alexa Podcasts (Step-by-Step Guide)?

      Women recording podcast

      Method 1: Alexa Podcasts TuneIn from the Alexa App

      • Open the Alexa app on your smartphone or go to the Alexa website.
      • Go to the main menu.
      • Navigate to Music, Video, & Books > Music > TuneIn.
      • Select Podcasts to browse through the available podcasts or search for a specific podcast by entering it on the search bar.
      • If you’ve selected Podcasts, go through the categories and list of Alexa podcasts to find one you want to explore.
      • At the top of the screen, just under TuneIn, you can select the desired speaker or speakers.
      • Tap the podcast’s icon to start playing it.
      • Use the onscreen icons to navigate the podcast.

      Method 2: Alexa Podcasts TuneIn with Voice

      The best part about using Alexa’s native podcast TuneIn is that you don’t need to set it up for voice commands.

      You can simply say, “Alexa, play the podcast [name of podcast]” or “Alexa, play a podcast,” and it will start playing either a specific podcast or a random podcast. You can also change podcasts or go through episodes using voice commands, but you can’t ask Alexa to play specific episodes.

      As such, if you’re using voice commands, there’s no need to set up Alexa podcasts. You only need to know the right Alexa podcast commands.

      Essential Alexa Podcast Commands:

      • Alexa, play [name of podcast].
      • Alexa, play a podcast.
      • Alexa, play the best podcast.
      • Alexa, set volume to [level].
      • Alexa, decrease/increase the volume by [x%].
      • Alexa, turn this off in [minutes].
      • Alexa, play the next/previous episode.
      • Alexa, pause.

      Alexa Podcast Skills

      ‘Skills’ refers to third-party applications that have Alexa compatibility. While listening to Alexa podcasts in TuneIn is easy, you may have other reasons to seek out other Alexa podcast skills.

      Perhaps you’re dedicated to another podcast service. Perhaps you already have a subscription to another podcast service. Or maybe there’s a particular podcast in another service that isn’t available in TuneIn. If you want to access third-party podcasts in Alexa, you’ll need to set up Alexa podcast skills.

      In this section of the article, we’ll discuss how to set up Alexa podcast skills and Alexa podcast commands for different skills.

      How to Setup Alexa Podcast Skills (Step-by-Step Guide)?

      Method 1: Enable Alexa Podcast Skills from the Alexa App

      • Open the Alexa app on your smartphone or go to the Alexa website.
      • Go to the main menu > Skills.
      • Enter the name of the podcast in the search bar.
      • You’ll get a list of all the skills that match your search results.
      • Select the podcast skill you’re looking for, be it Stitcher, AnyPod, or any other.
      • Tap Enable Skill.

      Method 2: Enable Alexa Podcast Skills with Voice

      • Say, “Alexa enable [podcast skill name].”

      How to Set a Preferred Music or Podcast Service?

      By default, generic music and podcast commands go to native Alexa services like Amazon Music or TuneIn. However, you can manually set other podcast services or skills as the default.

      • Open the Alexa app on your smartphone or go to the Alexa website.
      • Navigate to Settings > Music & Podcasts > Default Services.
      • Under the Podcasts section, tap on Change.
      • You’ll get a list of your available Alexa podcasts skills.
      • Select the podcast skill that you want to set as your preferred service.

      What are the Best Alexa Podcast Skills?

      Alexa Podcast Skills

      #1. AnyPod

      AnyPod is currently one of the most popular and reliable Alexa podcast skills.

      It offers all of the features available in Alexa podcast TuneIn. But in addition to those default features, AnyPod also allows you to play specific episodes of podcasts, jump to a specific time frame in the episode, and manage your subscriptions.

      The biggest issue, however, is that AnyPod doesn’t have a visual interface, either a web browser, smartphone app, or software. As such, you have to control everything using voice commands.

      Alexa Podcast Commands for AnyPod:

      • Alexa, ask AnyPod to play [podcast name].
      • Alexa, ask AnyPod to play [episode number] of [podcast name].

      Alexa Podcast Commands for Stitcher:

      • Alexa, ask Stitcher to play [podcast name].
      • Alexa, ask Stitcher to play the latest/oldest episode of [podcast name].

      Pocket Casts is one of the most versatile podcast services available on Alexa. Pocket Casts makes subscribing to shows and navigating between episodes a breeze. It’s also one of the most aesthetically beautiful podcasts because it has an intuitive design that keeps changing the interface color palette based on the podcast’s design. In terms of features, it offers a dazzling variety of features for playlist filters, preferences, speed and volume normalization, etc.

      Alexa Podcast Commands for Pocket Casts:

      • Alexa, open Pocket Casts.
      • Alexa, tell Pocket Casts to play my Up Next.
      • Alexa, tell Pocket Casts to resume the last podcast.

      #4. Spotify

      Spotify is widely known as one of the world’s leading music streaming services. However, Spotify also has an impressive collection of podcasts. If you don’t like flipping between different apps and skills for music and podcasts, you can use Spotify as a single streamlined service for music and podcasts. However, Spotify’s Alexa skill for podcasts is currently limited to some of the most basic and essential commands. As of now, the Spotify Podcast skill on Alexa is currently only available for the US.

      Alexa Podcast Commands for Spotify:

      • Alexa, play [podcast name] on Spotify.
      • Alexa, what’s playing?
      • Alexa, play.
      • Alexa, stop.
      • Alexa, fast-forward/rewind by [duration].
      • Alexa, play the next/previous episode.

      #5. Apple Podcast

      Apple Podcast is one of the most popular podcast services out there, especially for Apple users. It provides an impressive array of podcasts from some of the most reputable sources, such as New York Time’s The Daily, Trevor Noah’s Daily Show, etc. Apple Podcast is also known for its simplicity and clean user-interface. However, Apple Podcast’s Alexa skill doesn’t have a wide range of customized commands, unlike some of the other skills mentioned in this list. Furthermore, the Apple Podcast skill on Alexa is currently only available in the US.

      Alexa Podcast Commands for Apple:

      • Alexa, play [podcast name] on Apple Podcasts.
      • Alexa, play [podcast name] from [date] on Apple Podcasts.
      • Alexa, resume playing [podcast name] on Apple Podcasts.
      • Alexa, what’s playing on Apple Podcasts.
      • Alexa, play.
      • Alexa, stop.
      • Alexa, fast-forward/rewind by [duration].
      • Alexa, play the next/previous episode.

      Stream Podcasts from Other Devices

      Not all podcast services are available in Alexa skills. Some podcasts — Downcast, iCatcher!, and Podcast Republic — are only available on some platforms and don’t have Alexa integration. However, just because one of your podcast services isn’t available in Alexa skills doesn’t mean you can’t use it with Alexa anyway.

      If you’re using Alexa through a Bluetooth-enabled speaker, you can connect it to your smartphone or tablet to play from your preferred podcast app. Once you’ve linked the Alexa-enabled device to your phone, you can play your podcast app to listen to the podcast through the Alexa speaker.

      The only drawback here is that you’ll be limited to basic voice functions. You can still ask Alexa to play, pause, or adjust the volume. But you won’t have greater control over your subscriptions through voice commands.

      How to Pair Alexa-Enabled Speaker with Phone or Tablet?

      • Make sure your device is within range of your Alexa-enabled device.
      • Disconnect other Bluetooth connections either manually or by saying, “Alexa, disconnect.”
      • Set your device to Bluetooth pairing mode.
      • Say “Alexa, pair,” to make your Alexa-enabled speaker pair with your device.
      • The Alexa speaker will say “searching…” while looking for your device.
      • Under your phone’s Bluetooth settings, select the Alexa device.
      • Alexa will announce that your device is paired.
      • Play your favored podcast from the desired podcast app and control it using the basic Alexa commands.
