Happy holidaze and welcome back to the show! This week, Rebecca and Brooke calmly discuss four New York Times crossword puzzles published 11/22/2022 - 11/26/22. We also poke a stick at the curious corpus of 😱 LOGIC PUZZLES 😱 such as sudoku, ken ken, and star battles! We are two kra-z kids!!!
Plus:
- Red alert! Reds are red, but violet may or may not be blue: colors, categories, and linguistic relativity vs. universalism in this Nautilus article by Chelsea Wald
- PICTURE cards
- How not to fall for the myth of crossword's 'unwritten rules'
- The joy of connecting the dot dot dots
- Theme queries: emotional risks vs. open submissions (again)
