A scintillating Saturday crossword by Hoang-Kim Vu -- with a grid that is jam-packed with debut answers, including 36D, Photo of someone holding up the Leaning Tower of Pisa, say, VISUALGAG; 37A, Writer with good taste?, FOODCOLUMNIST 😀; and one that pretty much stood up on a chair and shouted IAMADEBUTANSWER, 22A, Certain descriptor after a signature nowadays, HEHIM.

In other news, we managed to work both a temporally-displaced Fun Fact Friday segment and a JAMCOTWA (Jean And Mike Crossword Of The Week Award) into today's episode, so, two for the price of one, what a deal 😀
