Jean & Mike Do The New York Times Crossword

Saturday, July 19, 2025 - Another Erik Agard spectacular

MP Season 13 Episode 65

In the pantheon of great cruciverbalists, there clearly needs to be a pedestal with Erik Agard's name on it. Why? Just check out today's crossword (and podcast!), or any of Erik's 81 other crosswords that have appeared in the NYTimes. This one being a Saturday, it was tough -- and Mike found it almost streak-breakingly-so, whereas Jean, to whom people are apt to turn when Wikipedia doesn't deliver the goods, had a much easier time of it. Deets inside!

Show note imagery: An AIREDALETERRIER (from the Anglo-Saxon for "awwwwwww, so cute").
