"Alexa (or Google), play Big L Radio" should do the trick. If you omit the word "radio", you're likely to get some rapper called Big L - the cheek of it!

Btw, Kev is usually live on Friday afternoons too at the moment.

Yes- I caught his show live today. Its interesting that you don’t have to mention the hosting platform - I.e. TuneIn. When talking to Alexa. You can just say- play Big L Radio. But I wondered if you could by-pass Big L Radio also- and just say- Alexa- Play Cookie in the afternoon- which is the wording that shows up.

Only a day late! Joker & fools is the theme of our Topical Tuesday today. So, don't be a fool, join me at 2pm, with your topical tracks. Will you be fooled by Tricker's Tricky Topical Teaser or the Topical Last Bite? If so, the joke will be on you!

@BigJohn: I doubt it will be able to break it down to individual shows.

You'd think in this day and age- and with the degree of ‘intelligence’ attributed to Alexa and her friends that they WOULD or at least SHOULD be able to break it down to the title of the individual shows. What I mean is that on a Tuesday afternoon at 2pm GMT there is only ONE ‘ Cookie in the Afternoon’show broadcast online anywhere else in the whole world? Has anybody actually tried it? I haven't got an Alexa- but you could gradually refine your search until Alexa actually finds the show and broadcasts it thro her speakers.

Hmm. Interesting. My first thought was, that there's nothing to actually tag the show, so it wouldn't work. Then I tried Googleing "cookie in the afternoon" (well this computer uses Duck Duck Go instead of Google) and up came a TuneIn page for it. It displayed the Big L staion logo and said (oddly) "this show will be available later at 2pm on Monday 8th April". Ok, so it was out of date, but obviously TuneIn knows about the show and since Google and Alexa both use TuneIn, maybe they will be able to find the show? I don't have Alexa, so can't try it myself.

Yes-I have Duck Duck Go too. And I recommend everyone on this forum does. If you knew how much info Google gathers about you personally- you'd never ever use it again!

Almost anything that connects to the internet will do the same thing. Within 24 hours of watching Tennis on Amazon Prime on a Smart TV, my web surfing is full of tennis sport/event related ads.
I also tried to test my Amazon Echo Dot by speaking about cruise holidays (without using the 'wake' word) and, sure enough, next day I get cruise ads.

It's all around us. Google browser is just one means of tracking. They WILL find you and know what you are doing.
