Friday, November 6, 2026 — Ah, Bliss, aka the NYTimes Friday Crossword 😍

This was a thoroughly enjoyable Friday crosswor d, with just enough bite to make it interesting. That bite came courtesy of clues like the nostalgia-inducing 30A, Popular hangout spots of the 1990s, CHATROOMS; the geographically educational 21A, Italian city that lent its name to a color, SIENA; and the always popular and very punny 16A, Stock exchange?, MOOS. Kudos to Aidan Deshong for a job well done. Show note imagery: A SAAB 99 Turbo S, the epitome of cool! We love feedback! Send us a text... Contact Info: We love listener mail!
