Inspired by Enlightenment Salons that helped drive the Age of Reason and the public interest in science, the Skeptics Society presents Science Salon — a series of intimate conversations between Dr. Michael Shermer and leading scientists, scholars, and thinkers, about the most important issues of our time.
Here are a few quick tips when navigating our skill. First thing to note, when opening the skill you’ll be offered the latest episode, but if that’s not what you’re looking for, you can always find something more specific. This skill allows you to skip forward and backward by entire episodes, and you can also fast forward and rewind within episodes themselves. In addition, you can ask the skill to play the newest or oldest episodes released; or if you want to get specific, play a specific episode by saying the episode number. Try some of these commands:
**Skip Entire Episodes** — [While Episode Is Playing] = “Alexa skip” or “Alexa tell Science Salon to skip ahead 5 episodes”
**Fast Forward/Back Within Episode** — [While Episode Is Playing] = “Alexa, tell Science Salon to fast forward 2 minutes” — [While Episode Is Playing] = “Alexa, tell Science Salon to rewind 45 seconds”
**Select Newest Episode** — “Alexa, tell Science Salon to play the newest episode”
