Dot to Dot - the daily 5min Alexa demo show episodes

  • DTD464 Human Attraction Facts
    These (in some cases possibly NSFK - 'Not safe for kids') facts about our faces are intriguing and worrying in equal measure. From more justice for models to better bonuses for beards. And we haven't even got to our bodies yet...

  • DTD463 TuneIn Live
    Once again Rill brings us a really brilliant skill. Today we hear how TuneIn Live can bring premium sporting commentary right to your Echo. Got an armchair and advanced critical - er… analytical - capabilities? If so then this one's for you.

  • DTD462 Sponge Bob Challenge
    A new listener joins the gang today. Shaun Williams ([email protected]) takes us on a salty adventure with superstars that are either seafood or sponge-based. And Shaun will be back soon with another skill that's like, groovy man (that's a subtle clue). Like Shaun, please send in your contributions to [email protected] or tweet about your absolutely favourite podcast that's called 'Dot to Dot' (unless of course there are others called 'Dot to Dot' then it's quite possibly not your favourite) using #DTDPod.

  • DTD461 (My) African Safari
    Phillip's back bringing us all sorts of aural ambient African goodness. For info, for some reason here in the UK the same skill needs a 'My' on the beginning.

  • DTD460 Superman Facts
    Today we start with a random fact providing skill that's all about Superman and then we lose our way quite a bit and end up at Hong Kong Phooey which I'm gratified to see has its own Wikipedia page.

  • DTD459 Great Composer Quiz
    Penny Golden's back to score five more correct answers in this five-question, multiple-choice quiz about the great composers than I would have done had it been me demoing this one. No sound-effects, though, which is almost criminal considering the topic of today's quiz. You can contact Penny at [email protected].

  • DTD458 Find My Phone (revisited)
    You'll never lose your phone again with today's useful skill. Or at least you'll never lose your phone so long as it's somewhere around the house and has some charge. So with those two crucial caveats, let's hear from Phillip Chalker who'll demo this fab skill that's had a handy update since we last covered it many moons ago. I also finish off by mentioning the 'Alexa Skills Review' podcast which features a written Q&A with me tomorrow so check it out if that sounds like your cup of tea.

  • DTD457 Party Foul
    Faith to the rescue to help play another great skill that uses the amazing Amazon Buttons. How well do you know your friends (or in this case daughter)? Not very well, it seems.
