Always an absolute pleasure to feature work by Pao here, and I'm especially excited to share a collaboration between the two of us! If you're looking for more of Pao's phenomenal puzzles to solve, look no further than yesterday's USA Today puzzle, which brought down the house as much as any puzzle can bring down any house.
Elsewhere in the Puzzleverse, I've got a busy weekend ahead! Find new stuff here as soon as it's published, or check Twitter to join the hype train.
Happy solving all around!
