A short, fun and occasionally not unintentionally educational podcast in which two fans of the New York Times crossword describe their puzzle-solving travails.
Jean & Mike Do The New York Times Crossword
Sunday, July 13, 2025 - Brought to you by RINSO, winner of the "Best Name for a Laundry Soap" contest 5 years in a row 😀
Today's crossword had bells, whistles, and even an EHRU thrown into the mix. It was by Brandon Koppy, however, so at no time did the quality of the puzzle ever dip below 5 squares on the JAMCR scale. Quite a few of the clues got our attention, including 30D, Strung rungs, ROPELADDER (that clue is just sooo much fun to pronounce!); 100A, Chore-o-graph, TODOLIST (brilliant!!!); and 55D, The old you?, THEE (tee-hee 😀).
In addition to the analysis of a great crossword, we also have some fabulous listener mail, and our first ever Sunday JAMCOTWA™️ (Jean And Mike Do The New York Times Crossword Award). Have a listen, and please remember to subscribe so you don't miss an episode!
Show note imagery: Coco Kou, available for EHRU lessons, if you happen to be in her neck of the woods.
