Episode Details

This was a classy Monday crossword, and the fact that Carolyn Davies Lynch and Christina Iverson are in the marquee has a lot to do with it. The clues just seemed to have a little more pizzaz. We covered most of them in the podcast, but there were others: 

• a puzzle within a puzzle: 44A, Man's name that's a citrus fruit spelled backward, EMIL;
•  a word that we just love to say: 46D, Source of motivation, in modern lingo, INSPO; and
• a real ear-worm clue if there ever was one: 10D, Mary who sings "In every job that must be done there is an element of fun", POPPINS.  

Besides the crossword, we've got our JAMCOTWA (Jean And Mike Crossword Of The Week Award) winner for the week, congratulations, Paul!
