    Hey, this grid feels familiar... I found this easier than the first one, but still very fun!
    @SporcleMirror, check out 19A19AHeight of fashion?[----], 25A25AMedia which definitely fails the Bechdel Test[-------], or 33D33DChip replacement[--------] for COW.
    [NB: There's currently a superfluous "3" at the end of the clue for 2D2DCraze over a 2008 race[--------]]

      WOW. I kept looking all over for a mistake - I typo-ed an A in the YARDSALE32DFinale to a spring cleaning session, maybe[--------]/EYE52ACheck[---] crossing. The quotation marks in the 29D29DStroke of luck?[---------] clue tripped me up, not sure if they're an intentional misdirection (causing solvers to think about a colloquial phrase)
      Loved seeing Magnus CARLSEN42AChess legend Magnus[-------] in the fill!
