As we dive into the bustling tax season, a fun challenge awaits listeners titled C.P.A.s. This intriguing puzzle involves answering with familiar two-word phrases or names, where the first word begins with C- and the second word starts with PA-. For instance, if you were to consider a person's unsavory history, the answer would be CHECKERED PAST.
Here are some clues from the current challenge that will test your creativity and knowledge:
Social gathering, often before dinner, at which guests sip drinks Big green part of Manhattan Place with metered spaces where you can pay to leave your automobile In slang, a place to sleep for the night ___ Kids, 1980s doll craze Crinkly, colored strips used for party decorations Tree with fruit that might be seen on a Polynesian island Field where cattle graze Famous luxury hotel and casino on the Las Vegas Strip Something with buttons and switches that allows you to change an instrument's settingsLast week's challenge, brought to us by listener Andrew Chaikin from San Francisco, asked participants to think of an 11-letter word that might describe milk. By changing one letter in this word to an A and saying the result out loud, you would arrive at a hyphenated word that describes beef. The answer was Pasteurized, transforming into pasture-raised.
Congratulations to our winner, Randy Hurwitz, from Fair Oaks Ranch, Texas, for cracking the code!
This week's challenge comes from listener Jessica Popp of Indiana, Pennsylvania. The task is to name a famous European tourist site consisting of nine letters. The twist? Rearrange its last four letters to identify something that the first five letters can be planted in.
