Friday, March 29, 2024 - Lots of ENIGMAS in today's crossword, including ... ENIGMAS!

Jean & Mike Do The New York Times Crossword

A tough Friday workout for the little gray cells, thanks to a debut by Jake Bunch with some nice diversions, obfuscation, and plumes of humor. We were delighted to see 40D, Computer acronym since the 1960s, ASCII; 48D, Fancy, WANT (of course!); 33A, Solving puzzles, e.g., PASTIME (still amazed that only has 1 T ...); and 43A, One of the Minecraft protagonists, STEVE (hi, STEVE!).
It is Friday, which, as long time listeners can attest, means it's time for Fun Fact Friday, and we have a fine one in store for you. Check it (and everything else that you wanted to know about today's crossword) out in today's episode, hot off the mike (but we promise it'll be cool by the time it gets to your ears).
Show note imagery: STEVE, a Minecraft character
