How to Set Spotify as Default Podcast Service on Google Nest Speakers

by Ravi Teja KNTS

Google recently provided an option to set default podcast service for the Google Assistant. With that, now you don’t need to specify the name of the podcast service to the nest speakers in order to play from that service. For instance, instead of saying, ‘Hey Google, Play the latest podcast from Joe Rogan on Spotify’, you can simply say, ‘Hey Google, Play the latest podcast from Joe Rogan’. However, to get it working, you have to first set Spotify as a default service to play on Google Nest Speakers. Here’s how to do it.
