Two Girls One Crossword

Any and all word lovers should jump in on this clever ride! Highly recommended.

Two girls named Chelsea and Grace, hitherto unknown, pleased by their grotesquerie and snappy way of singing and dancing. Or, in non-early-1900s-Times-reviewer words: I'm obsessed with this podcast and I don't even do crosswords! I always learn something interesting, plus Grace and Chelsea's banter and humor crack me up. Love all the childhood 90s references, too. (People are dying, children are crying, concentration... concentration!) Also really appreciate the simple format and non-covid/news content. (And the year #s for each mentioned century--hilarious, and at the same time, helpful.) Thank you so much for sharing your friendship, learnings, laughs, and crosswords with us! I give this podcast 12 out of 5 puns!

I’ve been listening to this podcast for about a month and can’t get enough! Grace and Chelsea are so fun to listen to; it makes me feel like I am having an interesting discussion with friends. They share their research a wide variety of trivia topics, packaging it up into an easy and fun listen. They have also inspired me to try more crossword puzzles! Keep up the good work!

There are other crossword podcasts. But TGOC is the only pod I’ve found with a keen interest in deconstructing crossword culture. In their own fun and thoughtful ways, they are reading crossword clues, answers, and themes as cultural moments, often calling to task the stale, outmoded, or even bigoted stylings of the crossword establishment. Keep the eps flowing!
