Surprise! It’s not a themeless!
Despite the near-total focus of this blog on crosswords of various sorts, I really do spend a lot of time on trivia as the text under my logo implies. (Hey Jeopardy! Wanna hire me?)
I’ve gotten to explore the intersection between trivia and crosswords a lot through Inkubator’s collaboration with Atlas Obscura, and today’s puzzle is in that vein (although not in AO’s specifically). I was inspired to make it when I thought of the songs referenced at 19- and 57-Across, which are both really fun, and the connection between them even though they sound nothing alike. I hope you enjoy this departure from the usual!

I see 1-Across everywhere I go, it seems, so here’s a puzzle!
Tough as Nails Themeless #74
This one is probably not as hard as usual. I submitted it to a mainstream pub and it was turned down, but I think it’s more than good enough to share. Hope you like it!

I’m from Philadelphia originally, so it shouldn’t be too hard to figure out what jawn was my seed here.
Tough as Nails Themeless #72
I don’t have much to say about this one except: Have at it!
Tough as Nails Themeless #71
This one’s been rejected twice. I think it’s a damn good puzzle anyway, so here you go.

Call this one the Fittest Themeless on Earth.
Tough as Nails Themeless #69
It’s an oversized surprise! The clues on this one might not be quite as hard as usual, but the size should slow you down at least a bit. Enjoy!

Here’s hoping this one isn’t Tough as Nails at all!
