A

I sprang to the comments because I couldn’t believe my EYEs… or Bs? Today is, in fact, my BDAY. Thank you, Ms. Uthlaut ☺️

Fun solve! This might be my first Tuesday completed without any lookups! The theme became evident to me with 36A, and I was bemused by 26A. Definitely a STRESS-free puzzle, crafted by a talented WORDSMITH :)

The Swiftie in me got tripped up by “Don’t you worry your pretty little” mind… but got redeemed by both ERA and its neighbour RED. . . . Karma is an emu

As an ed. who works mostly with math-related mss, could you guys have not used a proper division symbol (÷)? Aside from that, fun solve!

A fun, cute solve and my fastest Tuesday thus far!

Filled in the whole grid, only to find I had an error somewhere… who spells it as HOORAH?? Never knew there was a portmanteau of “hooray” (which I had) and “hurrah”.

Only began solving but I had give kudos for 16A 👏👏👏 Not only do I remember watching this as it happened but I, too, thought the same. Great minds think alike, or something like that, right?
