Monday, February 26, 2024 - NAMASTE!

This is Joe Marquez's second NYTimes crossword (congrats, Joe!) and a very nice piece of work it is. Several clues had a wry twist to them (and we are not just saying that because the theme involved alcohol 🙄).  The humor started early, with 1A, Little spheres in a pod, PEAS; continued with 15A, Out-spoken, ALOUD; and by definition the most humorous of all, the on the nose 26D, Ha-ha-ha, LAUGH (which we did).Besides the puzzle itself, we have listener mail, a fine explanation of ANDONE from a few days ago. Enjoy!Show note imagery: The very last picture of the RCADOME, blown up to make room for a convention center in 2008We love feedback! Send us a text...Contact Info:We love listener mail!
