Fill Me In #551: Never try. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week, Ryan and Brian's notabilia includes calendrical math, added NYT puzzles, a book too prestigious for this program's hosts, and a week of crosswords worth discussing and then forgetting. All this attempted in good faith while Ryan is away from home with an uncooperative computer. If you don't have patience for Zoom lag and mediocre audio quality (from Ryan), we urge you to skip this week. If you get bored (how could you?!), write something for the Fill Me In wiki .

At the dawn of Season 12, Ryan and Brian discuss Dolly Parton, Tim Curry, Shohei Ohtani, Alex Verdugo, Paul McCartney, Ava DuVernay, and Ana de Armas.

Read excerpt
This week on the Season 11 finale (why? we don't know why), Ryan and Brian explore the nuances of the Marvel Cinematic Universe, compare the legacy of Fill Me In to that of classic 1980s television, and mention a few places for puzzles, including Lollapuzzoola , Scott Weiss's Squonkland (plus the results of his latest Anti-Match Quiz ), and a new game called Long Story Short . If you get bored (how could you?!), write something for the Fill Me In wiki . And if you're feeling philanthropic, donat
Fill Me In #548: You've unlocked the key of your hand. (opens the original)
Read excerpt
This week, Ryan and Brian count down the days to Lollapuzzoola! Although the NYC venue is sold out, there's both a waiting list and a way to just order the puzzles for home solving . What else? The science of finger-snapping, left-handed brass instruments, minor league baseball, a cranky rant about the NYT Games site, and a threat of further ice cream in Pleasantville. If you get bored (how could you?!), write something for the Fill Me In wiki . And if you're feeling philanthropic, donate to our
