This is Adam Wagner's 18th crossword, and it was a doozy, with 4 debut answers, including both cohosts'  favorite, 6D, Exploded, WENTKABOOM. The grid was replete with many  other less explosive but still notable clues/answers, such as 24D, "The Way" in Chinese Pinyin, DAO; 9D, New Jersey city named for its most famous former resident, EDISON; and 1D, Bully in "Back to the Future", BIFF. A fine, fine crossword, and we are looking forward to Adam Wagner's 19th, which based on his prior record, ought to appear ... tomorrow!
