Voice In Canada Flash Briefing #309
Hello, hello and welcome to today’s flash briefing. Today’s a very special day. Obviously, it’s Christmas Eve for those of you that do celebrate. And, in honor of Christmas Eve, I thought I would give you a couple of ideas of things that you can say to Alexa to get you into the Christmas mood.
Now, I actually debated as to whether or not to do this flash briefing today or tomorrow, but I thought, hey, it’d be fun for you to get this today, so you know what things you can say to Alexa tomorrow, and who knows, I may even give you some more little tidbits tomorrow.
So here are some things that you can say to get you in in the Christmas spirit for today. You can start off by saying, “Alexa, where is Santa?” And you can figure out and track Santa. You can say, “Alexa, read The Night Before Christmas by Rascal Flatts”
In order to do this, you’ll have to have an audible account, but you can have that story read. It’s a free offer from Amazon.
You can say, “Alexa, tell me a winter joke” And I actually had a pretty good joke that she told me.

You can also say, “Alexa, how many days until New Year’s Day?” Do a little down that way. You can say, “Alexa, tell me a winter joke” And I actually had a pretty good joke that she told me. I liked it. And I think we’re going to stop there today.
I have one more special command that you can say to Alexa, and I think I’ll tell that one to you tomorrow on the actual Christmas Day. So if you celebrate, I hope you’re having a wonderful day and hope you have a wonderful time tomorrow.
If you don’t sell that Christmas, I hope you are enjoying the good spirit of the season and I look forward to bringing you many more flash briefings as we finish up this year and make our way into 2019. Alright. All the best. Talk to you tomorrow.
