EB IT Radio on Alexa 🔊

Listen to EB IT Radio on your Echo, Echo Dot, Echo Show or any Alexa device. Just ask!

▶ Enable the EB IT Radio skill on Amazon

Getting started

You can turn on the skill in any of these ways:

  1. On this page: tap the button above and choose Enable to use. You’ll need to be signed in to the Amazon account that your Alexa uses.
  2. In the Alexa app: go to More → Skills & Games, search for EB IT Radio and tap Enable to use.
  3. By voice: say “Alexa, enable E B I T Radio.”

Then say “Alexa, open E B I T Radio” and you’re listening!

💡 Tip: always say our name as letters: “E B I T Radio”.

📻 Listen live

  • “Alexa, open E B I T Radio”
  • “Alexa, ask E B I T Radio to play live radio”. You can also say “…play the radio” or “…play the music”.

📖 Story time

  • “Alexa, ask E B I T Radio for story time” plays Story time radio, one story after another.
  • “Alexa, ask E B I T Radio to play the story The Lighthouse Keeper’s Cat” plays a story by name. “Read me the story…” and “tell me the story…” work too.
  • “Alexa, ask E B I T Radio what stories are there?” lists some of our stories.
  • “Alexa, next” skips to the next chapter. If you pause, the story carries on from where you stopped.

🎵 What’s on

  • “Alexa, ask E B I T Radio what’s playing?” tells you the song on now. “What song is this?” and “who is this?” work too.
  • “Alexa, ask E B I T Radio what’s on?” tells you the show on now and the next one on the schedule.
  • “Alexa, ask E B I T Radio when is Eddie on?” tells you when a presenter’s next show is.

🙋 Join in

  • Vote in our chart: “Alexa, ask E B I T Radio to vote for this song.” You can also say “I love this song.”
  • Request a song: “Alexa, ask E B I T Radio to request Bohemian Rhapsody by Queen.” Requests follow our usual request rules.
  • Send a message to the studio: “Alexa, ask E B I T Radio to tell the studio happy birthday to my mum.”
  • Get the studio number: “Alexa, ask E B I T Radio what’s the studio number?”

⏯️ Controls

  • “Alexa, stop”, “pause”, “resume” and “cancel” all work.
  • Your Echo’s buttons work too.
  • “Alexa, help” lists the main things you can ask.

Having trouble?

  • Alexa doesn’t understand the name. Say the letters slowly and clearly: “E… B… I… T… Radio.”
  • The Amazon page won’t load. The skill is brand new, so Amazon may still be updating its servers. Refresh the page or try again a little later.
  • “You can’t do that on live radio.” Skipping songs, going back, shuffle and repeat don’t work on a live station. In a story, “Alexa, next” skips to the next chapter.
  • Outside the UK? Our music licences cover the UK, so the music stream is for UK listeners only. Story time radio is open to everyone, wherever you are, on our Stories page.
  • Still stuck? Email studio@eb-it.uk or call the studio on 01205 627691.
