Missed opportunity to clue 38D as "Just remember _______ when you spell the man's name" to atone for a recent error regarding MF DOOM. I understand the style guide and all that, just had to poke some fun :)

This one went along smoothly. Helped that the spanners came to me easily. Really liked those and they seemed to fit together, made this kind of a 'themed themeless' puzzle for me. Very good, bravo.

Big shoutout to Nardwaur ("The Human Serviette") because I would have never heard of that word otherwise. I know how that nickname sounds, so I must assure you it's nothing dirty! He does fantastic interviews, mostly with musicians. It's all on Youtube and worth a watch. So yeah, getting the SERVIETTES/SPANAKOPITA off the rip was cool to see and really helped fill this thing out. Got stuck on a few archaic words, a couple wrong squares didn't help either, but still very fun solve for a Saturday.

Huh, never heard of "tater" as slang for a homerun but still a fun theme/monday puzzle. Cheers!

Add me to the Sunday PB club. And that was while being distracted by the Olympics and having to do a little typo hunting. Nothing wrong with an easier Sunday though, that was a fun one.

Appreciate the constructor notes on this one; Ocala came to me quickly having just driven to FL from Chicago, something we did a few times when I was a kid. Road tripping with my mom brought back some memories for sure. Had a visit to Sanibel planned too, but it turned into a day of beach-hopping further north. I'll get there some day. Great puzzle on the whole, the POLKADOTS/ARGYLE crosser plus the cluing is fantastic, and really nice spanners. Always like opening a puzzle and seeing it's a Katie Hoody joint.
