Homophones?

Constructor's Note
After you're done debating whether 8A / 6D are pronounced the same, I'd love it if you checked out today's L.A. Times puzzle - a collaboration with Katie Hale
Thanks for solving! A full archive of my puzzles can be found at OlioGrids.com or at crosshare.org/oliogrids.

    Nice as always! Does the LAT link need fixing?
    • Brian Callahan constructor · 2024-01-06T20:10:23.792Z
      Yes it does - thanks for catching!
    • A738840496 🤓24s · 2024-01-06T19:11:21.510Z
      I feel like every LAT clue needed a ?, wasn’t my jam. But this was a fun palate cleanser!

        I'm on the hard G team.

                Fun, thank you! (You are a brave man for wading into the great .gif debate…)

                Nice.

                  Fun mini and a fun LAT puzzle! I liked the answer to 46-Across in that one
                  • Brian Callahan constructor · 2024-01-07T05:15:06.982Z
                    That was the seed entry for the puzzle. Thanks for solving!

                    great crossword confused as the the homophone title
                    • Brian Callahan constructor · 2024-01-07T05:13:35.512Z
                      The pronunciation of 6D is part of an age-old debate (by age-old I mean like 20 years). Some people are in the hard-g crew, while others say that it sounds like 8A
                    • JeffsPuzzles 🤓18s · 2024-01-07T04:00:16.647Z
                      Lots of fun! The LAT puzzle is terrific. Great misdirections. It got my brain going again after 28 hours of travel to Australia (where I just had lunch with Kieran!)
                      • Brian Callahan constructor · 2024-01-07T05:12:21.528Z
                        Ooh, that's exciting! Enjoy Melbourne - will you be attending the Aussie Open?
                        • JeffsPuzzles 🤓18s · 2024-01-07T07:11:08.986Z
                          Unfortunately not - I'm here for a few days then heading to Uluru, the Great Barrier Reef, Sydney, and then over to NZ.
                          • Brian Callahan constructor · 2024-01-07T16:42:32.502Z
                            Sounds like an amazing trip! I'd love to go to all of those places someday. Safe travels!

                        Good job on both. You’re getting to be a regular there.
                        • Brian Callahan constructor · 2024-01-07T16:42:39.709Z
                          Thanks Grant!
