Friday, September 27, 2024 - A LYRICAL Friday crossword

Jean & Mike Do The New York Times Crossword

Today's crossword, Jake Bunch's second for the NYTimes, and his second Friday, was splendid: even though Friday crosswords are typically themeless, this did have a meta-theme, really, really intriguing clues. Beyond those mentioned in the podcast, we had 59A, Composer for whom Poland's largest airport is named, CHOPIN; 26D, 1st, 2nd, 3rd, etc.: Abbr, STS (oh, of course!); and an answer that only shows up rarely in the grid, but we are happy whenever it deigns to drop by, 11D, Simply delectable, TODIEFOR.
Besides all that, we also have a fun Fun Fact Friday segment, so do check that out (and remember, our Triplet Tuesday Contest is drawing to a close - you still have until Sunday at 11:59:59 PM in whatever time zone you are listening in to submit an entry, so do take advantage of that).
