It took me 0:31 to complete today’s NEW Mini.

It would have been a little embarrassing for me if I didn’t get YAHOO right away, since I’ve been writing for a Yahoo publication since 2018. AWARD was also straightforward enough (Emmy, Grammy, Oscar, Tony).

I missed RANDO (which made sense in hindsight but never would have guessed) and DINER. I got all the Down tracks to a pretty quick fix though. HANNA is of course a reference to Hanna-Barbera, the animation powerhouse behind people such as flintstones, Yogi Bjorn and The Jetsons.
