TRANSCRIPT · AUTO-GENERATED

Yacht-to-Dot. With 85 minutes, a little delay show. For everyone who simply dotty about Alexa. Welcome to the Dot Dot Podcast.

My name is Joe. Have you ever just been snake-fit at work? Just something trivial, petty, whatever, just keeps getting you? Well, welcome to the Pyramid.

I have tried to record this several times for Robin, and every time some weird calamity power outage something. So let's go in. I'm recording this right now. It's 50-50 to work, but I'm excited.

It's a fun game. If you remember the old game show, you're going to love this. Alexa, enable the Pyramid. Okay, here's Pyramid.

Hi there, and welcome to Pyramid. Normally in a TV show, you'll be waiting against your opponent's turn. Earn your spot in the Winner's Circle for a chance to win cash. But you'll just be playing for cracking rights here.

Also, this game is best played on an active device with a screen, but you can still play some game modes without one. Let's get to it then. For your first game, you can play solo or do a local party game. Which would you like to play?

Solo. Okay, then you'll be playing a solo game. That means my AI partner will be your teammate giving the clues, and you'll need to guess the items. For every 14 items you guessed correctly, you'll earn a trip to the Winner's Circle.

All right, I'll take the back seat to let my co-host drive. Let's see if this round takes you closer to the Winner's Circle. The category choices are 1. Face Facts.

2. It's your lucky day. 2. It's your lucky day it is.

Describe these things associated with St. Patrick's Day. When you're playing without a human partner, I'll give you the hints and you need to guess the secret word or phrase. You'll need to interrupt me to give your guess by saying, Alexa, followed by your answer.

You'll have 60 seconds of all your items. Ready to go? Yes. 60 seconds.

And go. It's the month we celebrate St. Patrick's Day. It's the third year.

Alexa. March. The traditional color born on St. Patrick's Day.

Alexa. Mix blue and yellow. Green. It's a popular St.

Patrick's Day drink. It's alcoholic. It is a brand of it. Beer.

In Irish folklore, it's a mischievous character. Alexa. Leprechaun. It's a musical instrument.

It's an emblem of Ireland. You play it strings. Angels play it. Alexa.

Do you know it? Or harp. It's a three-leaf clover. Alexa.

Shamrock. All right, all right. That was a solid showing. You went six for seven.

That's the end of this game. You'll need to play more to get to the winner's circle. That's it for your first game. You can try our other game types now.

You've played your other games already, so let's start party mode. Are you up for another game? No. Okay.

Maybe next time. We've been already? Come back next time for even more Pyramid. Only because I want to get out while I'm ahead.

That was fun. It went well. I think this recorded great. The sounds are fun.

I'm an old sucker for the game anyway. I used to watch it when I was a kid. So anyway, that was the Pyramid. I hope you really enjoyed it.

And I hope this worked. I hope it worked. See you tomorrow. Hello.

I'm Sean. Do you love smart speakers? More importantly, do you love the Echo? Well, good news.

We've got a show for you. The Echo Show. To tell you more, here's Robin. Thanks, Sean.

Let's have a flavour of what's in store. How's that? That was absolutely awful. We'll never do that again.

Let's move on. Yes, I'm ready. What? Was that a joke?

Another two. Give me a two thumbs up. All right. You're going to have to limit yourself at some point, Robin.

No, no, no. I could go up for him, too. I always love the escape room ones. Let's go with that.

Okay, good. Good choice. Ominous. You are on the street.

You have zero gold coins. I thought, hello, he's a Geordie. You've got no accent. It's all you say about the Queen.

Man, I love... This is one of my favourite skills. Just look at what you had there. Hello, my name's Pete, and this is my pub quiz.

Next up, history. This is a royal question. Got a lot of royals in chat. Well, firstly, I've got to say, I think you are absolutely rubbish at it.

I mean, what were you doing? We're going to demo them, and we're going to rate them with our thumbs, apparently. So that's good. I can't wait.

And if you still want to listen after hearing that, why not check out the Echo Show podcast? That's good. That sounds weird, doesn't it? I'm saying show weird.
