Kudos to James McCarron, on creating an excellent Friday crossword, a debut, no less. Among our favorite clues (not mentioned in the podcast) were 21D, Film star whose name consists of two presidents, HARRISONFORD (not to be confused with the slightly lesser-known star, ABRAHAMNIXON); 6D,ย Nash who wrote "The cow is of the bovine ilk; / One end is moo, the other, milk" (udderly brilliant ๐Ÿ™„); and 36A, "Poppycock!", PISH (the most British word ever ๐Ÿ˜€).

Show note imagery: A BENIHANA chef showing off what might (or might not) be an onion volcano

Show note URL: Everything you ever wanted to know about Alfred (yes, that one)
