    Normally I discourage people from providing the answer before the deadline for puzzle submissions on the NPR website (Thursday 3pm ET), but since I gave such an obvious clue, and since this week's puzzle was ultra-mega-easy, I'll make an exception.

    Yes indeed, that was the answer I was thinking of too. I'm sure Will will confirm this next Sunday on the air, but I think you can stop looking for other answers.

For NPR puzzle posts, don't post the answer or any hints that could lead to the answer before the deadline (usually Thursday at 3pm ET). If you know the answer, submit it to NPR, but don't give it away here.

You may provide indirect hints to the answer to show you know it, but make sure they don't assist with solving. You can openly discuss your hints and the answer after the deadline. Thank you.
