== Crossword Puzzle ==


'''Brad Dowdy:''' That was good stuff. It was good stuff. All right. So I guess it's been about a month now. We had, um, one of our listeners, Chris Gottlieb do a crossword puzzle for, for the podcast.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Mm-hmm.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' It, I'm still, mind blown, I guess, that he did this. It's, uh, it's like really, legitimately intense crossword puzzle. I couldn't finish it. I, I had a tough time, but the winners have been announced. The answer key has been published. We're going to have all of this posted in the show notes. Where are the show notes, Myke?

'''Myke Hurley:''' They are at relay.fm slash panaddict slash one, two, one.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' So are we going to announce the winners here on the podcast? Yes. Because what Chris did for the winners, I, I was shocked.

'''Myke Hurley:''' Yeah, I kind of couldn't believe it.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' I could not believe it. So, the grand prize champion winner, Mr. Joe Cabrera, you win from our friend, Chris Gottlieb, a Lamy 2000.

'''Myke Hurley:''' I cannot, I just don't even.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' I, yeah. Yeah, so, holy cow, when I saw this.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Um, and then our two other winners are Joe Austin, who gets a Lamy All-Star, AL-Star, sorry. And Terry Cavanaugh gets a Lamy Vista. And those are both awesome pins in their own right. And for Chris to do this, for us and for our listeners, I cannot thank him enough. So, yeah, you, uh, definitely need to go check out Chris's website. Uh, it's, uh, a propensity to.com. And we'll have all this in the show notes. So check it out. Thank you, Chris, for keeping up with this and offering this up to the listeners and readers of the pen addict. And, um, everyone who, who put in their, um, put in their answers, go check the key now. Um, all the answers are out there. And a lot of it, uh, is making more sense to me now that I see the answers. Because I had a tough time with it. Um, I'm not gonna lie. It was, uh, it was a hard deal. It was like, uh, I guess it was New York Times Sunday level crossword. Don't they, like, ramp them up throughout the week with Sunday being the hardest or something like that?

'''Myke Hurley:''' You're asking the wrong guy.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Yeah, no, I think, I think they, there, there's a range, like, of difficulty. And with Sundays, Sunday being the most difficult, um, this was a Sunday level, uh, crossword puzzle for me. So, all right. So we got this follow-up out of the way.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' And this next item is the one thing I hated missing last week, Myke. But, you know, life gets in the way sometimes. But we missed the launch of the latest Field Notes edition.

'''Myke Hurley:''' We sure did. But I haven't received mine yet anyway, so.

'''Brad Dowdy:''' Well, I would.

'''Myke Hurley:''' It kind of feels like it was just the day, the launch week. Because that's what it usually does.
