Monday, October 18, 2021 - War of the Words - ORSON or ODEON?
Manage episode 304936206 series 2927391
Freddie Cheng has provided a very ARTistic start to the crossword week, with a series of clues that include multiple spellings of the word ART, e.g., 17A, Athlete who rarely gets sacked or has a pass intercepted, STARQUARTERBACK. Both Jean and Mike had a skosh of difficulty with this puzzle, because, even though solving independently, they were both taken in by 50A, Woman's name derived from the Greek for "peace", IRENA (not IRENE), crossing 46D, Super-miniature dog breed size, TEACUP (not TEECUP). Mike also was momentarily flummoxed by 23A, Classic cinema name, ODEON. (not, ORSON). Today's podcast also has a tasty discussion of PEARTARTs, so for all the deets, download and listen up!
