Soap Boxes (WSJ Sat Apr 15 by Patrick Berry)
Tougher than usual but, as usual, very satisfying.

Same here! I was expecting something completely different for that box entry. I googled it after back-solving to make sure it was a "thing" and to learn more about it. A good one to remember.
And as usual, a fabulous PB puzzle.

Yes, that one took much longer than usual. Had a hard time getting started and the bottom left answer I thought was somewhere else in a a 9-letter spot for a good bit. Good one Patrick!

I love these box puzzles. I literally stop my day until I get the final reveal!
If I’ve solved and you need a nudge, you can PM me. Happy to pay it forward.

Also felt this was a little tougher than usual, but I got it. As others have mentioned, one box answer was new to me. Another good PB puzzle.
