Yacht-a-dot. With 85-minute skill devotion. For everyone who's simply dotting about Alexa. Hey guys, Robin here.
We are revisiting a really good skill today called Guess the Fake. Last covered well over 600 episodes ago. This one is like a true or false game, just by a different name, but it's got great sound effects and really good questions. I think, anyway, Alexa, open Guess the Fake.
