The audio format is more alive than ever before. Though video might have briefly knocked down the radio star, radio came back swinging after an '80s-movie-style training montage.

It finds its fan base in people that are too busy to sit down and watch videos -- those with long commutes, rushed mornings, and intense exercise routines.

The “Your News Update” is available today. Just update your Google Assistant to access this feature and then say, “Hey, Google, play me the news.” This will work on a Google Home device or on a smartphone with Google Assistant.
