Dot to Dot - the daily 5min Alexa demo show

Jane Suh's back and bringing us the heads-up on a brilliant skill called, er, Heads Up. Great to have so many listener-contributions coming in so please keep 'em coming everyone; [email protected].

Isn't it amazing how Bob Dylan himself keeps dropping round to help out with these demos? Well today Bob purposely pitches us into a pit and prematurely puts an end to the podcast. Oh well - at least his rider is only a packet of Jaffa Cakes and a glass of skimmed milk…

A brand new listener, the brilliant Rill, has sent us a marvellous demo of the MLB skill. Listen to all your favourite teams in play-by-plays at the plate (do I sound like I know what I'm talking about?)

Whether you like maths, like me love maths, or just like me mucking up my maths, today's skill's for you.

Penny Golden ([email protected]) has joined the crew and provided us with this excellent revisiting of the Lie Swatter skill. We covered it many moons ago so it's a good time to hear it in action again (and she does much better than I did - needless to say).

Be bamboozled on a daily basis with this riddle-culously difficult skill.

You'll go wild with frustration when you hear just how horrendously hopeless I am at playing variations on this classic, kindergarten-level strategy game. For info we call it 'Noughts and crosses' over here in the UK, so why not try and make it catch on wherever in the world you are (just for the sheer reckless abandon rush you'll get as a result)?

Phillip Chalker's back with a new music-tuition skill; Ukulele Teacher. If you're thinking of learning, or simply like listening to, this instantly identifiable instrument then this one's for you - although if I said that I wanted to learn the Ukulele myself I'd likely be a lyre.

This is your basic roulette game with one very modest sound effect. Still, it's better than a poke in the eye with a croupier's little stick thingamebob - y'know, the one they use to scoop up all your lost chips. (For info, I've just looked it up and apparently it's called a 'Rake'.)
