ACROSS LITE PUZZLE: [ THEMELESS MONDAY]

This one’s an odds and sods themeless. A B-sides collection, if you will. Not that I’m saying this one’s made up of sub-par material, any more than I’d necessarily say a B-Sides collection is a band’s lesser work (“Past Masters” and “Westing (By Musket and Sextant)” to name two that do just fine alongside proper releases). But I digress. Been meaning to put 59-Across in a puzzle for a longtime now. And I’d tried the clue at 14-Across in a different puzzle, but it didn’t quite work out for that entry. But it worked fine for this one. Wasn’t thrilled with having to throw in those four cheaters in the NE and SW corners. But on the other hand, this grid’s got 34 7-letter entries, one more than half the total number of words. Boom.
Share the puzzle. New one on Thursday.
I found this easier than the usual hards. Thanks for a good start to the week 🙂
Easy side of hard for me too. Nothing to apologize for here. Solid puzzle! Liked SCOOBAS and pulled PROPBET out of my vague memories of Vegas sport’s books.
