Emma and Will chat with Mark Woychick, who constructed the Pandora's Blocks puzzle "Seconds Count!" Spoilers for "Seconds Count!"

Emma and Will also give a brief introduction to the new puzzle pack organized by Will, Contest Crosswords Combating Cancer (CCCC). More episodes about that coming soon!
