By: Discovery

It’s not summer without Shark Week and it’s not Shark Week without Bob the Shark! Now you can talk to him about all things Shark Week on your Google Home or Amazon Alexa devices.

You don’t even have to turn on the TV to have a hilarious and informative conversation with your fin-niest friend! Bob is taking over both Google Home and Amazon Alexa voice skills and is here to answer your most biting questions.

Dive In!

Launching either app is simple and can be activated by saying the below:

“Hey Google, talk to Shark Week”

“Alexa, open Shark Week”

Once you do that, you’ll be greeted by Bob who will be at the ready to answer when Shark Week starts, tell jokes, give some sharky facts, and even explain more about who he is.

You can also ask direct questions like “Hey Google, ask Shark Week when it starts” or “Alexa, ask Shark Week for the fact of the day” to access content.
