Have you ever wondered...

  • What makes a crossword, like, good, from an editor's-eye view
  • If Laura Braunstein (@laurabrarian) is good at karaoke
  • What Laura Braunstein’s favorite emoji is
  • Whether there is a more graceful option than crying yourself to sleep at night when you’ve had your a** handed to you at a crossword puzzle tournament?

YES? ME TOO THAT'S SO AMAZING THIS PODCAST IS FOR YOU!!!!!!!

Welcome to Crossnerds' SERENITY NOW special! To distract you from living your worst nightmares, we hit the (digital) books and get absolutely learnt with Laura Braunstein: accomplished constructor, speed-solver, and commentator, plus founder and editor of The Inkubator, which publishes puzzles exclusively by women (cis, trans, and woman-aligned).
