Saturday, February 8, 2025 - A *perfect* Saturday crossword!


Listen Later

Alina Abidi has crafted a delightful Saturday crossword - tough but fair, with more terrific clues than you can shake a stick at (your mileage may vary depending on your physical prowess and the dimensions of said stick ๐Ÿ˜€๐Ÿ™„). Among the clues that we were particularly enthralled with were 1A, What may precede a blessing?, ACHOO (nice!); 6A, School whose mascot is Big Al the elephant, informally, BAMA (awesome!!); and 5D, Snap, crackle or pop, ONOMATOPOEIA (even more fun to say than it is to spell ๐Ÿ˜€).

In addition to our take on the crossword, we've also picked our JAMCOTWA (Jean And Mike Crossword Of The Week Award) winner, so check it out, and let us know if you a) agree, b) disagree, or c) are neutral on the subject.

Show note imagery: An irresistibly cute teacup dog (awwww!).
