Hey thereJason699,
We understand you're wondering if you can use your Apple Watch speakers alone to play podcasts aloud. We'd be happy to provide information about this.
According to the article you came from, Bluetooth headphones or speakers are necessary to play music or podcasts: Listen to music and podcasts on your Apple Watch
You need Bluetooth headphones or speakers to listen to music or other audio on your Apple Watch. Learn how to pair Bluetooth devices with your watch.
If you're connected to Wi-Fi or cellular on your Apple Watch Series 3 or later, you can stream Apple Music and Apple Podcasts even when you’re away from your iPhone. You can also sync music and podcasts from your iPhone to your watch. Then you can play the content on your watch without your iPhone nearby, even if your watch is not connected to Wi-Fi or cellular.
Regards.
