Learning Crossword Week 35 | NYT Crossword Tuesday Jan 7th, 2025

[@siennacaul]

As a college student, I look for content that allows me to take a brain break between study sessions without becoming brain dead, as scrolling TikTok or watching highly stimulating content so often does to my mental state. I was recommended a video by you in my KZbin feed the other week, and I am so glad that I chose to watch it. I am able to unwind in a way that keeps my brain working, as I attempt to solve the puzzles along with you. I particularly love your crossword puzzle content, because I am continually learning new vocabulary words, along with different ways of approaching problems, and the longer video length allows me time to give my mind a true rest before moving on to the next task at hand. Your calm demeanor and slow-paced videos create a peace of mind for me, which, again, is not something that I would typically get from my normal study break. Thank you for creating this content daily and helping to provide me with a healthy way to relax from the stress that school so often provides me. I appreciate it more than you can know! Please, keep it up! 😊

this for sure felt hard for a tuesday, and I think yesterday's was a bit tricky for a Monday too!

[@Rangsk]

Maybe because Will Shortz is back?

Watching this is becoming part of my dinner routine. I sit and watch your crossword while I eat🤣 I think I prefer watching you here rather than TT so I’m happy for the change!😁

[@Rangsk]

I love that!

Would you be able to find time to try the themed monthly NYT crossword puzzle? I think you could solve it pretty well!

The word rent was struck out in the clue - so answer was a rent strike.

Once again, Frasier came to my rescue! 😂 I got Napa because of a line in the show. "It's Napa alright but as I always say 'Why go Merlot when you can call a cab!'" I think the NYT editors may be Frasier fans 😂 Great job today! The upper left part of the crossword was so hard for me today. Thanks for the videos as always!

When I was a kid TGI Fridays has a milkshake called Oreo Speedwagon. I knew that drink before I knew who REO Speedwagon was. When I saw ____ Speedwagon I thought, "Oreo! No...wait... REO."

[@Rangsk]

Ok well that's how I'm going to remember it now 😂

[@vanessarockholz4874]

I could not think of eyeopener either!

[@auldfouter8661]

The clue should have said broadcaster name because the Beeb has a host of channels.
