“Where peas are queued” - what a fantastic clue for a common fill word.

Did anyone else stubbornly hang on to UPS for “Carrier”? To the bitter end for me.

How nice to have Iftar and seder in the same puzzle.

My iPhone kept prompting me to update the app and I stubbornly kept pushing “later” - can’t you see I’m solving here? Only later did I realize the update would have given me the circles.

Lingered too long over a nice CUP of soup.

I for one was not familiar with loris until this week.

Our constructor’s name is embedded in 11D and 44A.

I really enjoyed GEOMETRY FIGURE solving for EUCLID. Simple but clever

Great construction marred by the App’s limitations (at least in ios). Since there was no way to enter letters outside the grid, I used rebuses (rebi?) to enter the two letters in each box as appropriate. This was not acceptable to the App until I went back to eliminate the butted out letters. I was then treated to the graphic that showed both letters in the boxes - just like I had had it a moment before.

Great debut Jackson. Hope to see more from you.

Nice challenging puzzle, but too many semi-obscure entertainers. Not really a criticism of this constructor as it has become a constant presence in these puzzles. Today Dev, Harry, Jon, Ella, Mia and Ayo.

Wonderful word play.

While as Sam Corbin notes, there are several possible answers for 18A (“Cry after a poke”), I appreciated how the actual answer fit so nicely with today’s theme.

Great puzzle. One note on Deb’s explanation of 41D, most US public corporations incorporate in Delaware because the corporate statute is well drafted and the state judiciary is competent and efficient. Delaware corporations pay tax just like those of the other 49 states.

Wonderful puzzle. Hats off to Owen!

All round good puzzle IMHO.

Terrific Saturday challenge.

Great puzzle. Clever theme well executed.

All round nice debut.

I started right off with “Too good to be true” for 1A and notwithstanding a couple of down crosses, it was.

Great puzzle and according to the post solve note, my 100th consecutive Wednesday.

Clever theme and great all round puzzle around the double entries.

Corn belt week! Nice puzzle.

Slow Monday got me. I had my “ham” and cheese sandwich on the first pass and would not let it go for a long time. Nice puzzle.

Clever puzzle. Nice debut!

Nice puzzle. The meeting of Aslan and Osric did me in! I have never read Narnia but usually do better with the Shakespeare characters. I had all but the “s”.

Brilliant construction! Kudos to Mr. Liebeskind. However, it was disappointing that 1/1, 2/4, 3/9 was not accepted as correct. Guessing how to enter the correct answers should not be part of the crossword challenge.

7D in the mini and 34D in the main both refer to CD books. Neat coincidence - or is it?

Nice puzzle. JAPE and JAKE did me in!

Once I figured the theme, I expected the animation upon a successful solve. It spurred me on!
