Don't know. I wasn't aware that there was anything a site could do short of
providing actual recordings that would provide this functionality, so when
it was mentioned I wondered how it was done. (I'm a web programmer
interested in accessibilty, but not really an expert on it.)

It does look like BrowseAloud can do something like this. Are there other
similar solutions?
