Lead, as a TV program

Wrapped things

Why the two tricky words fit
GIFT can suggest a natural ability, which makes it tempting to group with FACULTY, FLAIR and INSTINCT. Here it belongs with BURRITO, MUMMY and SPRAIN: each is something that can be wrapped. PRESENT fits the TV-program group as a verb alongside ANCHOR, HOST and MODERATE. Parade and TechRadar both report these same groups and identify the game as #410 on July 25, 2024. Parade’s answer guide and TechRadar’s guide are editorial answer guides, rather than primary NYT game records.
