Description
Now this was a Friday crossword — themeless, tricky, and highly entertaining. We have to applaud 39A, It's mine, all mine!, EGO; scratch our heads at 44D, "Gymnopédies" composer, SATIE; and will, shortly after this podcast, be off to investigate 58A, Hidden element of FedEx's logo. Those were just three of scores of similarly high-caliber clues.
TLDR: another fine effort from Nam Jin Yoon.
Show note imagery: One of the biggest games in Spanish football, ELCLASICO, a battle between Barcelona and Madrid that has been raging since 1902.
