Great wordplay. Stared 5 minutes at my cross of UPS / POTHERE before I realized the clue was a different kind a carrier. Long week, I guess!
Nice theme, but BLEH around the edges.
A whole puzzle centered around BOOM, ROASTED???? Who even says that?
@Jake G. What’s the point of the message board?
At first I guessed LESSEES as the revealer before solving any other clues, thinking maybe there’d be a fun puzzle with no E’s. Not the most successful strategy. Still a speedy Thursday.
Fun puzzle. Smoother than Tuesday and Wednesday this week IMHO.
Never heard of jodphurs. Might never again either.
@Paul disagree. It’s a turd of a Friday.
Nice Friday cluing. ART LAB was a new term to me and was a relatively tricky cross with CUBIT, but smooth puzzle otherwise.
@Dave S. Same here. With bad allergies (or a cold - who knows these days), snottily fit just fine.
@DW—Tuesday is still the toughest puzzle of the week. Go figure.
@Eli Edwards. I was told there’d be no math! Speedy, but fun!
@Sarah was going to post the same thing.
@Bob SE corner was a streak-breaker for me. Too many lookups to consider it an official solve in my book. First one in nearly 1.5 yrs (April 6, 2024 NW corner was the last).
@Paul I had AFFILIATE in first pass until I did the crosses.
@Jay For sure. If my fingers were faster, it felt like it could have been <3 min solve. Alas.
