Saturday, March 14, 2026 - GOTTA like a crossword with GOTTA and ATTA 😉
from Jean & Mike Do The New York Times Crossword · host MP
Kameron Austin Collins (aka KAC) has a reputation for writing streak-killing crosswords. Today, however, KAC is playing against type — and the result is a tough, doable puzzle that doubles as a master class in how to write great clues. We've covered our favorites on today's podcast, but here are a few more for your consideration. First, we have 33A, Hip places, BELTLINES (nice!); 32D, Tanning target, PELT (oh, that kind of tan); and the short, sweet, and somewhat cryptic 26A, Flutter, BATS. A fine crossword, most definitely deserving a 5 out of 5 on the JAMCR scale.Show note imagery: William Pitt "the Younger", a Whig wearing a wig 🙄We love feedback!
