Wednesday, January 10, 2024 - GOBI, the world's most aptly named desert!
Description
There was one TYPEO in today's grid, but that was by design and quite amusing (20A, What's tolerated by every body?), as we can count on one hand (without resorting to any phalanges chicanery) the number of genuine TYPEOs in the NYTimes Crossword.
Some real gems lay lurking in the grid, from subtle clues such as 61D, Its ways are numbered, RTE (lovely!), to the minor head scratcher (for some of us), 12D, One of the Astaires, ADELE (no, not that one); and one that we mentioned in the episode, but it deserves repeating, "Magic that works", per Vonnegut, SCIENCE 😀
Show note imagery: ADELE Astaire and ... some other guy
