Wednesday, April 20, 2022 - TIMDUNCAN, NBA MVP and ideal doughnut spokesperson!
A slightly more intense crossword than usual, the cost, perhaps, of having to squeeze in 4 names that contribute to an awesome theme. Our themestress âąïž Jean has all the deets, so to find out what that theme was, and where all the particularly crunchy bits of this crunchy crossword lay, just download and hit play.

Tuesday, April 19, 2022 - Spare some time for a striking crossword
An educational Tuesday puzzle, with such enlightening clues as 46D, Only mortal Gorgon in Greek myth, MEDUSA; 67A, Disney heroine whose name means "ocean", MOANA; and the curious 51D, Attempting to, casually, TRYNA. There was also a theme, about which our head themestress âąïž, aka Jean, has much to say. Of course it's Triplet Tuesday: will Mike make a fool of himself, or merely ... make a fool of himself?

Monday, April 18, 2022 - Tracee Ellis Ross rides again!
A marvelous Monday crossword, a CHALLENGE in spots, but pleasingly LIGHT on pop culture, EYEROLL! Jean and Mike both found it took a wee bit longer than usual for a Monday, but was still eminently doable, and worthy of 5 squares on the still, remarkably, unconstrained-by-supply-chain-shortages JAMCR scale.

Saturday, April 16, 2022 - TIOGA and TICOS and TALKIES, Oh, My!
A grueling Saturday crossword, the sneaky-clue meter was pegging all over the grid. Jean hit a sticky wicket in the top-left, while Mike's unfamiliarity with vodka -- he knows how to spell it, and has a vague recollection that it is odorless, but that's about it -- left him bereft in the southwest corner. There were some great clues in today's grid, though, and you can hear all about them by clicking Play (or subscribe, as you see fit) right now! We love feedback! Send us a ...

Friday, April 15, 2022 - What do we think of our listeners? XOXOXOXOXO!
An eXcellent Friday crossword, with a grid that is just overflowing, almost, with X's, and also features a remarkable dearth of black squares.

For all the deets, as well as today's Fun-Fact-Friday fact, we cordially invite you to download and listen up! We love feedback! Send us a text... Contact Info: We love listener mail! Drop us a l...
