TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

Dot, doot, doot. A new skill every day. In five minutes. Hello, how's everyone doing?

Hope you're all doing great. My name's Sean, and today I'm going to be taking a look at a brain teaser, a crossword skill. Ah, man, I love crosswords. And well, to be honest, this is just a really convenient way to do a crossword.

Now of course, this is a revisit because every skill I seem to want to demo, Robin's already done. Way back in, I don't even know, 1,200 and something, but a while ago. But again, I love this skill. This is a skill I use every single day.

So I just want to share it. So here you go. Ah, open puzzler. Good afternoon.

Welcome back to puzzler. Thank you. Would you like to play your daily crossword, premium crossword, or hear the high scores? Daily crossword.

Let's get into your quick crossword of the day. Flow out suddenly. There's four letters. Hmm, I actually have no idea.

But to give your answer, just say, lady A, and then whatever your answer is. You can also, if it's a difficult word or lady A doesn't understand, you can spell it. Also, you can ask her to repeat the question, or for a clue, or just the answer. Anyway, let's have a go.

Gosh. Great stuff. I know, thank you. Mide stretch of water.

First letter, G. It has four letters. Ah, I'm stumped. Um, let's get this one.

Up, up, up. Next. Okay, we'll skip this clue. Number of sides on a 20-pence piece.

First letter, S. There are five letters. Another seven. Great stuff.

Bar for pricing. Blank, blank, V. Blank, blank. It has five letters.

Oh, come on. Always look like I'm really stupid on these demos. Hang on. Isn't it crowbar?

That doesn't fit, though. Let me listen again. So repeat. The clue is bar for pricing.

Blank, blank, V. Blank, blank. Five letters. No, pry bar.

No, I need help. I'll give you a clue. Here's a clue. L.

Blank. V. Blank, blank. So it just gives you one of the missing letters.

Oh, lever. Oh, lever. You've completed half of the crossword. Let's hear the next clue.

Chew away at blank, n blank, blank. There's four letters. Oh, what I know. No.

L. G. N. A.

W. OK. Here's your next clue. Ship's team of workers.

Blank, R. Blank, W. Crew. Yep.

If you know the answer, you can give it before the music starts. Here's the final clue. Wide stretch of water. G.

Blank. L. Give me a clue. Ah, she didn't hear me.

So give me a clue. OK. Here's a hint. G.

U. L. Blank. Gulp.

Gulp. What? Gulp. You're getting good at this.

I don't know. I'm not sure about that one. You did it in 20 minutes, 22 seconds. This was your 0th fastest time for daily crosswords.

Main menu. Would you like to play your premium crossword or hear the high scores? Stop. Well, OK.

So now, I'm thinking about it. Of course, the answer was not gulp. It was golf with an F. But it took it anyway.

So sometimes the less than perfect voice recognition can work in your favor. Anyway, that was puzzler. I absolutely love it. I do subscribe to this one for the premium content, which does give you bigger and longer crosswords.

So yeah, I love it. Give it a go. That's puzzler. Thank you and see you next time.

Oh, before you go, there's a new podcast related to Dr. Dark. It's called The Echo Show. It's weekly, myself and Sean, Prius, brilliant guy.
