Saturday, March 21, 2026 - An Elegant Saturday Solve

Today's crossword was replete with awesome clues — pretty much all of them were fresh, imaginative, and entertaining. We covered a slew of them in today's episode, but even though we used our "end-of-class-but-we-want-to-slip-in-one-more-slide" delivery style, we didn't have time to cover them all. We regret, in particular, not being able to squeeze in 36D, Stuck under a blanket, perhaps, SNOWEDIN (bravo!); 33D, They've been played!, ROLES (brava!); and as we can definitely attest based on this week's weather in NE Wisconsin, 27A, It's not nice to walk in this, SLEET.Besides our analysis of today's crossword, the icing on the cake is some terrific listener mail, so check it out!Show note imagery: Some of Jeff KOONS' steel balloon animalsWe love feedback!
