Dot to Dot - the daily 5min Alexa demo show

Is today's skill at all similar to the famous video game Minecraft? I've no idea but from the little I've gleaned of the game from my kids it probably isn't a million miles off the mark (after you've taken away all the graphics of course). And it has (cheesy) sound-effects.

Woo, woo! (Just adding in some sadly absent sound effects) Two groovy skills to keep you on the right track when it comes to knowing your UK train trivia. We then finish off with some bonus soothing train sounds to send us to sleep. Don't listen to this episode when operating heavy machinery.

Join me at the very nadir of my trivia career. I might as well have my head chopped off by Ned Stark - I'd still do about as well at these skills.

Tweet straight from your Echo with this fab skill. You can also listen to your timeline in all its glorious audio hilarity (tweets just aren't supposed to be spoken out loud). Welcome to my world. Oh and good luck dictating #DTDPod...

Just like Family Fortunes, this skill pits you against the popular answers of polled people on a range of random topics. No sound effects; big red 'X'.

Today we look at two skills; one to avoid all that tedious pressing of the Play/Pause button on your stereo when playing pass the parcel, and the other to publically probe the very furthest extent of your most personal preferences.

In today's episode, the excellent Eric Troup (with a tiny guest appearance from the lovely Manissa) shows us all the Scooby Doo skill. With voices from the current cartoon (actually probably CGI come to think of it) TV series which sound spookily like the original cast from way back, there's no mystery about why this skill's a winner. Eric's @BlindGeek on Twitter and check out his real-time roll-play podcast Monkeys Took My Jetpack - it's really rather good.

Today's episode is brought to us by the brilliant Michael Cassidy. Mike demonstrates three awesome aviation-related skills that can give us flight costs, arrival/departure details and the low-down on what's on high above our heads. I love listener episodes.

Two random fact generating skills today; one to serve up crazy nuggets about the world, and the second to let you know if they're true or not.

It's another good ol' multiple-choice, five-question quiz today guys - although it's about the cool film that is Jurassic Park. We also finish off by revisiting the great sounds produced by the scary skill 'Dinosaur Facts and Sounds'.
