from Jean & Mike Do The New York Times Crossword · host MP
Today's crossword, by Laura Dershewitz, was her third for the NYTimes, and it was grand.

Both eventually got the puzzle solved, Jean reporting a decent time, Mike reporting ... a very large number.tldr: we liked the crossword, a lot -- check out the deets in today's episode.Show note imagery: An ARROYO, a dry creak or gulch.
