SURF (32A: Drop in and ride the barrel, at the beach) I know what surfing is ... and that's the extent of my knowledge about this water sport (other than things I've previously learned from crossword puzzles). I was grateful for the "at the beach" hint, which helped me deduce that "drop in" and "ride the barrel" are SURF lingo. To "drop in" means to catch a wave that another surfer is already riding. As you might imagine, basic SURF etiquette says not to do this, as you could ruin the person's wave. The "barrel" refers to the inside tube or curl of the wave. To "ride the barrel" is to SURF inside this wave curl. I'm sure I haven't done the best job of explaining this, so I recommend watching the linked video if you want to know more.
WIFE (30D: Jessica Betts, to Niecy Nash) Actress Niecy Nash and singer Jessica Betts married in August of 2020.
COMMA (1A: Punctuation mark with an Oxford variety) This clue was a fun way to start off this puzzle. In my experience, some people (myself included) can get emotional, opinionated, and outspoken on the subject of the Oxford COMMA. The Oxford COMMA, also known as the serial COMMA, is the COMMA placed after the second-to-last item in a list, just before the conjunction. The COMMA between the words "opinionated" and "and" above is an example of an Oxford COMMA. And by the fact that I used it, you can probably guess how I feel about this punctuation mark! The Oxford COMMA is generally not used in journalism in order to save space. Fortunately, since this article is only available digitally, I am able to utilize the Oxford COMMA when appropriate.
RAY-BAN (27A: Wayfarer sunglasses brand) The sunglass brand RAY-BAN was created by Bausch & Lomb in 1936. In 1952, the company began marketing their Wayfarer line of RAY-BAN sunglasses. A number of celebrities, including Buddy Holly and James Dean, sported Wayfarers in the 1950s and 1960s, helping the brand become popular. In the 1980s when the glasses were becoming less popular, RAY-BAN invested in a product placement deal that resulted in RAY-BAN sunglasses appearing in numerous movies and TV shows. Notably, Tom Cruise wore Wayfarers in the 1983 movie Risky Business.
RHINOS (33A: Huge horned herbivores) The name "rhinoceros" means "nose-horned," a reference to the distinctive horns of these animals. The horns of RHINOS are made of keratin, the same material that makes up the fingernails of humans.
CIARA (66A: "Body Party" singer) "Body Party" is a 2013 song by CIARA.
MGS (3D: Booker T. & the ___) Booker T. & the M.G.'S were a band that played R&B, soul, funk, and instrumental rock. Booker T. & the M.G.'s were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in 1992, and the Blues Hall of Fame in 2019.
ANKARA (5D: Capital of Turkey) Turkey's capital city of ANKARA is the country's second-largest city, following Istanbul. Historically known as Angora, the city's name officially changed to ANKARA in the 1930s. Angora rabbits (the source of Angora wool) and Angora goats (the source of mohair) were named after the city.
DARLA (9D: "Finding Nemo" girl with braces) It's been a while since I've seen Disney's 2003 animated movie, Finding Nemo, but I have seen it. I needed some help from crossing answers to remember the name of DARLA, the braces-wearing niece of the dentist in whose office Nemo ends up in an aquarium.
RENO (33D: "The Biggest Little City in the World") RENO, Nevada is located near the Nevada-California border, about 22 miles northeast of Lake Tahoe. RENO is known for its tourism and casino industry, and has earned the nickname "The Biggest Little City in the World."
OCALA (36D: Florida city near Silver Springs) OCALA, Florida is located in the north central part of the state. Its nickname is "HORSE Capital of the World" – a nod to the many thoroughbred training centers in the area.
EAST (38D: Mozambique-to-Madagascar direction) Mozambique is a country in Southeast Africa, with coastline along the Indian Ocean. Madagascar is an island country in the Indian Ocean, located EAST of Mozambique. How about a review of some capitals? The capital of Mozambique is Maputo, and the capital of Madagascar is Antananarivo.
E-BOY (43D: Alt aesthetic popularized on TikTok) The E-BOY and e-girl alternative fashion subculture emerged in the late 2010s, and was popularized by TikTok. The look may include baggy clothes, neon-colored hair, nail polish, and decorative chains.
ITHACA (47D: Cornell's city) Cornell University was founded in ITHACA, New York in 1865 by Ezra Cornell and Andrew Dickson White. Cornell is a land grant university (an institution of higher education given federal land by the Morrill Acts of 1862 and 1890).
THETA (49D: Greek letter after eta) THETA is the eighth letter of the Greek alphabet. It follows eta and precedes iota. From the top: alpha, beta, gamma, delta, epsilon, zeta, eta, THETA, iota...
HORSE (51D: Belmont Stakes racer) The Belmont Stakes, known as "The Third Jewel of the Triple Crown," is a HORSE race held on the first or second Saturday of June. The other two HORSE races that comprise the Triple Crown are the Kentucky Derby and the Preakness Stakes. The Belmont Stakes are held at Belmont Park in Elmont, New York.
TAO (63D: "Eternally nameless" philosophy concept) TAOists follow a philosophical and spiritual tradition that emphasizes living in harmony with the natural order of the universe, a principal referred to as "TAO" or "the way." The TAO Te Ching, a fundamental text for Taoism, describes TAO as the natural order of the universe. It is considered "eternally nameless" in contrast to the countless named things in the universe.
BEST KEPT SECRET (16A: Info not many know about)
BEFORE I FORGET (35A: "Oh, also let me quickly say...")
BEAR MARKET (59A: Downward trend on Wall Street)
ROOT AROUND: The ROOT vegetable BEET is found AROUND each theme answer: BEST KEPT SECRET, BEFORE I FORGET, and BEAR MARKET.
As with yesterday's puzzle, "Picture Frame," figuring out today's theme requires an extra step. It is not the word ROOT that is found AROUND each theme answer; it's the ROOT vegetable, BEET. I had a nice "Aha!" moment when I noticed that BEST KEPT SECRET begins with BE- and ends with -ET. Thank you, Prasanna, for this excellent puzzle.

Booker T's coming for you in 'WWE LFG' season 2
It's a pretty good time to be Booker T. At WrestleMania 41, Jey Uso became the first alumnus of his wrestling school, Reality of Wrestling, to win a WWE World Championship. His prized protege Roxanne Perez has graduated from NXT with the highest marks, and is now a full-fledged title contender on the main roster "WWE Raw" brand. But the newest trophy on Booker's mantle is a bit different: He's one of the inaugural winning coaches of "WWE LFG," the company's newest reality competition through A&E TV. While he's put 20 years into training the fanatical fighters of the future, he sees value in the new rapid-fire, sink-or-swim endeavor — and he's ready to go even harder for his crew in season two. Advertisement 'I mean, I'm a pretty good coach' Booker half jokes, breaking down what took him to the podium on the show's first go-round. Abbreviated from 'Legends and Future Greats,' the first season of "LFG" paired 17 of WWE's Performance Center athletes with some of its most decorated pugilists of the past. Broken down over 15 episodes, the competitors were given an array of tasks, both physical and creative, and asked to showcase what they picked up through strategically assigned matches, with eliminations happening through their respective coaches for the first three rounds. Then, the final eight were chosen after their performances via panel vote until there was one — or in this season's case, two — winners. In some ways, it's akin to the earliest versions of NXT, but you won't see longtime veterans like Bryan Danielson or Low-Ki in the mix. Fellow WWE Hall of Famers The Undertaker and Bubba Ray Dudley joined Booker as coaches, as did multi-time women's world champion Mickie James, to impart knowledge from their different corners of the wrestling world. Current stars like Gunther, AJ Styles and CM Punk made cameos during training sessions and matches to offer outside looks at the talents who hope to eventually earn a spot in their locker rooms. Advertisement 'We all do it differently. We all speak different languages," Booker says. "But at the end of the day, it all works out because we are all world-class caliber talent. "I think that's what's really cool about the dynamic of the four coaches, is we all teach the same thing, but we all do it differently. But at the end of the day, you're going to get to your goal. I always tell my students, 'Put an asterisk by everything I say because it's the way I think.'' Everyone's approach is a bit different. The Undertaker exudes that kind of even-keeled, proud poppa approach that earns you a moniker like 'The Conscience of WWE.' Bubba Ray leans heavier into 'earning it' tough love than the rest of group, infamously refusing to shake contestant BJ Ray's hand upon his introduction. James, who entered WWE at a time when personalities in the women's division were … less than fleshed out ... seems really focused on helping talent find their 'why,' emphasizing the need to develop and showcase your personality between moves and steps. Booker, who had the toughest path to wrestling superstardom out of the four, seems to have the biggest emphasis on urgency, knowing that one thing you can't teach — but absolutely can harness — is the desire to go and get yours. Advertisement He's shown his desire to stand out from his peers his entire career, and still shows flashes of it throughout the show, with his not-so-subtle frustrations in trying to make sure his voice is heard. '[My mentality was always] it was only one meal on the table," he says. "There's 10 people in the room. Who's going to get it? "I asked a lot of my guys that I work with … 'You ever been in a real fight?' If they say no, they got to go get in a rolling class. They can't even train with the other guy. They got to go start over here.' Booker's pupil and eventual winner didn't have to step away. Jasper Troy, from the appropriately named Huffman, Texas, was a NCAA D-I offensive lineman for four years with the University of Kansas and University of Northern Iowa, so the majority of his formative years were spent battling for space with monsters at close quarters. With his fire, and Booker's direction, he was able to secure victory. 'And that's what I saw in Jasper Troy from Day 1 in season one, over everybody in that thing," Booker says. "[I think] he would have been a close runner-up if he wouldn't have been under my expert tutelage. [Fellow collegiate lineman] Anthony Luke probably would have won. I'm just saying.' Booker T imparts some old-school wisdom to the up-and-coming talent on "WWE LFG." (Photo via WWE/A&E) Perhaps the most interesting part of the series is the push for the competitors to come up with things on the fly. You've heard WWE stories about last-minute name changes, adjustments to finishes, or promos thrown out to better fit the story that have to be relearned right away. With all of the participants almost exclusively having started their professional careers in the WWE system, they don't have the years of independent or promotional experience to have a tried and true persona or moveset that just needs tweaking. So watching the odd couple of Eric Bischoff and Sean Waltman ask them to come up with a faction, or AJ Styles challenge them to come up with a moniker and perform like it in a match, is a testament to how long it takes to not only learn how to wrestle, but to learn how to harness the emotions of the business as well. Advertisement While it seems like an insane amount of pressure, Booker thinks that the kind of mini-mester format "LFG" provides could even benefit some in NXT, where they're getting the same information but in a slightly different package. 'One thing about it, the NXT talent is trained a certain way, and then to be able to get outside of the box and get under somebody else's training, you're going to see it," he says. "They may be telling you the same exact thing, but they may tell it to you totally different. And then you might go, 'Oh man, I've been hearing the same thing.' They'll understand it totally different. "I think they would benefit from it tremendously.' While Booker's student secured an NXT contract by winning, Undertaker was voted the season's overall winner, by virtue of coaching the other winner, Tyra Mae Steele, and for having the most students advance throughout the competition. The man who went from tag-team specialist to World Television Champion, United States Champion then World Champion was never satisfied by what he'd already done. So while Booker is eating right now, he's still dedicated to getting a bigger piece of the pie in season two. "I'm taking the gloves off, I could tell you that," he says. "Because season one, I was robbed. Everybody saw it. Advertisement "For me, I'm taking the gloves off by any means necessary. Like Ernie Ladd said way back in '78, I'm going to have to just step on some toes and step on some toes and keep on walking, Jack. For me, season two, like I say, the gloves off for me.' He's proven to have a winning formula when it comes to preparation and production, so with even more motivation to win, there's a Legend ready to battle it out for the next Future Great to see them succeed.
