After adding the feature to the US around a year ago, Spotify extends support for voice controlled podcasts on Alexa-enabled devices to 11 more countries.

Helping them further dominate the podcast industry around the world, you can now listen to Spotify Podcasts hands-free with Alexa in the following countries: Canada, UK, Austria, Brazil, France, Germany, India, Ireland, Italy, Mexico and Spain.

All you to do is link your Spotify account. Head to the Alexa app, tap More in the lower right corner, then Settings and scroll down to Music & Podcasts. Listeners in Brazil, Mexico, Germany and UK can also set a default podcast service here too.
