Marketplace Debuts Amazon Alexa Skill

Marketplace, the new program recorded in Los Angeles and carried on more than 800 public radio stations nationwide, says it has rolled out its very own Amazon Alexa Skill this morning--based on Marketplace's "Make Me Smart" podcast. According to Marketplace, its skill will connect Amazon Echo users with bits of information on the economy, pop culture, tech and current events every weekday. The content features Marketplace's Kai Ryssdal and Molly Wood covering such topics as how 5G works, inflation rates, what happened to the $1,000 bill, and more, according to the program.
