This week's Word Salad is about homophone clues. I find them pretty easy to identify and solve, since the universe of indicators is relatively small. So naturally, Hot and Trazom give us a few more than usual in this week's puzzle.

Degree of difficulty (by standards of this weekly puzzle): kind of a mix, mostly easy. The homophones are balanced by a couple of more obscure words, but all the clues have at least one easy part.
Hozom's comment: "I Hear You," in which Hot and Trazom share their favorite homophone clues. I can't say I find them memorable: much of the time, it feels like you have to fudge the pronunciation a little, but they're all legit.
