Description
This was a perfectly crafted crossword to wrap up the work week — not too hard, not too easy, but juuuuust right. It included some awesome clues, for example:
- 57A, Figure with three faces, in Dante, SATAN (not, as Mike originally theorized, CERBEBUS);
- 44D, Beads for an athlete, SWEAT (cool! ... which is sort of the point); and
- 59A, They're stretched out before some workouts, MATS
And there were others, which we explore at length in today's podcast.
To top it all off we have a tasty FFF (Fun Fact Friday) segment for your listening pleasure. Enjoy!
Show note imagery: Epictetus, a Greek stoic philosopher who was dead set against lying
