This was Tarun Krishnamurthy's second NYTimes crossword. It was just as good as his first, and considering that he wrote it while still in high school, we can anticipate him constructing a long, long string of great puzzles.

A few clues (not mentioned in the podcast) of note include 26D, Get tangled up, RAVEL (oh, so that's what happens when you don't UNRAVEL); 36D, A sixth of the way through the hour, TENPAST (uh, oh, math 😀); and 61A, Reason for overtime, TIE (un, not PAY, gotcha!).

To get the full 411, as well as hear how Mike did on today's Triplet Tuesday™️ battle royale, download today's episode ASAP. (Oh, and don't forget to subscribe, so you never miss an episode).

Show note imagery: ALTHEA Gibson, a ground-breaking and supremely talented tennis player.
