MENGENAI EPISOD INI

Thursday, April 23, 2026 - A *brilliant* Thursday treat!

This is Zhou Zhang and Kevin Curry's second collaboration, and it is an uber-awesome bit of cruciverbal magic. They started with a chef's kiss of a theme, puzzling with a powerful payoff; they ended with a slew of equally awesome clues. Consider: 42A, What the "Music City Miracle" and the "Immaculate Reception" took place in, NFLAMES (😀); 44A. Alternative to bow ties, PENNE (😀 😀); and 48A, Test release?, TIMESUP (😀 😀 😀).

We cannot wait for ZZ and KC's third collaboration, best on prior work it's sure to be a hoot.

Show note imagery: In the worlds of the immortal Yoda, "DO, or DONUT, there is no try" 🙄

Saturday, October 17, 2026 — Yup, This Was a Saturday Crossword Alright! 😀 😱

Saturday crosswords are, by tradition — at least since Will Shortz took over as editor — the toughest puzzles of the week, and today's definitely qualified. Both cohosts had to labor mightily to get to the happy music, but the journey was a joyous one. There were many, many delightfully dec ...

Thursday, October 15, 2026 — You Can't Hide from the Ides 🙄

Today's crossword was an absolutely terrific debut by McKay Fritz, with another one of those delightful and, as expected, thoroughly unexpected themes that the NYTimes is legendary for.  We'll pause here momentarily to give everyone, including us, a chance to parse that last sentence. ...

Monday, October 19, 2026 — Off We Go, to OSWEGO 🙄

Both cohosts found today's crossword to be a jot crunchier than the typical Monday fare in places. It started off almost comically easy, but then seemed to put up more resistance in the middle of the grid. We found it endearing, and the theme in particular quite amusing.  Besides the crossw ...

Friday, October, 16, 2026 — No, You Can't Play an EBOW With An ELBOW 🙄😂

Today's crossword was a debut for Adam Shapiro — but it wasn't for a lack of trying. He has had 15 previous submissions to the NYTimes rejected, so today's puzzle is a monument to perseverance as well as crossword constructing excellence. An example of the latter may be seen in 39 ...

Sunday, October 18, 2026 — Hello, LORELEI!

Today marks Peter Gorman's debut Sunday crossword. He has now published every day of the week except Friday and Saturday, but, based on how quickly he was able to get to 5 — his first crossword appeared in February of 2025 — we expect him to knock those out in short order.  In the meantime, ...
