from Jean & Mike Do The New York Times Crossword · host MP
Neither Jean nor Mike got off to a ROCKYSTART with this crossword, ironic since all of the themed answers benefited from having, well, a ROCKYSTART. For example, 18A, Coyote outfoxed in cartoons, ROADRUNNER, maps to ROCKYROAD; 24A, "Get Out", for one, HORRORFILM, maps to ROCKYHORROR; and so on. A few old favorites dropped by -- 65A, Cookie in the shape of its first and last letters, OREO (the official cookie of the NYTimes crossword), and 50A, Mauna ______ (Hawaiian volcano), KEA (the official Hawaiian volcano of the NYTTimes crossword). It's Tip Tuesday; Jean had a tip about the Eloi, and Mike weighed in with a few musical terms.We love feedback! Send us a text...Contact Info:We love listener mail!
