    Cool puzzle! Very tricky for me. I thought I managed to get it but had a typo 🤦

      Wow, great puzzle. Solid theme, with challenging but gettable clues (how had I never heard 57A before?) Looking forward to your future constructions.

        Great puzzle. Not at all easy but I got there in the end.

          Ooof! Didn't think I'd make it, but I'm glad I kept at it. I really liked this theme! Thanks so much for this grid!

            Super.good.puzzle. Only checked at the absolute end, 2 typos. Loved the clue for 57A as well, I was trying to figure out other languages before getting some letters by crossing then it hit

              Wonderfully wierd, can't seem to understand 37A however (downs were clear enough though)

                Takis are a brand of spicy rolled tortilla chips, so it's "Taki ET on the run". thanks for the kind words!
