DTD1472: The Daily Question 07.02.2021 4:58
By the excellent Drew Cosgrove (@DrewCosgrove on the Twitters), today's skill has all the drama of Who Wants to be a Millionaire but without the public humiliation.

DTD1471: A-lady, what is your free audio book this month? 06.02.2021 5:02
Just one free book this month (here in the UK at least) but it looks like a good'n. I also plug the supremely excellent debut novel by Richard Osman; The Thursday Murder Club.

DTD1467: Pointless (revisited) 02.02.2021 5:37
Covered nearly 400 episodes ago, this one was mentioned in this week's email from Amazon and is also by those guys at Vocala. Is it pointless playing it?

DTD1465: Rogue's Choice (revisited) 31.01.2021 7:19

From the amazing developers, Magic Door LLC (yes, that's right - bringers of the brilliant Magic Door skill covered in episode 1 and then rightly revisited in episode 384), and served up by the ever-smooth Shaun Preece, this one definitely deserves a dabble.

DTD1464: Dream Time and Dream Time II (revisited) 30.01.2021 3:27
Covered 600 episodes ago, yet again by Vocala and sounding a lot like the soundtrack from Bladerunner. Two beautifully relaxing mood music skills today; the first with over an hour of ambient audio on which to all but physically float away and the second around 30 minutes. Only the whalesong (episode 822) was more relaxing methinks. Feedback, comments, demos pleas to ✉️ thedottodotpodcast@gmail.co...
