the radio skill will be implemented using AudioPlayer interface, please find more information on the link below:

https://developer.amazon.com/en-US/docs/alexa/custom-skills/audioplayer-interface-reference.html .

There is an AudioPlayer sample skill which actually streams from a radio station already to which you can refer. That can be found here: https://github.com/alexa-samples/skill-sample-nodejs-audio-player

You will need to change the url stream and add your own. Please take into account that the URL you provide in the audioItem.stream.url property must meet these requirements:
