Look down, not up, and maybe have a glance sideways. Working on a crossword means examining words and letters in a way you usually wouldn't when you're just reading.

Guests:
- Alan Connor, journalist for the BBC and The Guardian and author of The Crossword Century: 100 Years of Witty Wordplay, Ingenious Puzzles and Linguistic Mischief
- Dan Margolies, KCUR’s Health Editor and puzzle aficionado
