I'm listing it as a Sunday hard but I don't think this one should give too much trouble!

Add a minute or two to my time because I accidentally closed my tab and had to restart after I had already figured out the crossword.

I don't think I "get it" this time. Usually I do, but I'm not seeing th connection between the title and the solved puzzle.

Okay here I go trying the spoiler thing again 🤣

::: spoiler spoiler

!So it's a play on a homophone, "sounds like Aussie" = Ozzy, referencing Ozzy Osbourne, who also goes by the answer of the puzzle :)!< :::

Spoiler worked on my end!

I get it now.

::: spoiler I suppose the reason I didn't get it before is I'm not too familiar with Ozzy Osbourne and didn't know that. :::

Totally fair! I thought it was slightly more fair due to recent events, but I left it for Sunday on purpose cause I knew it wouldn't be as well known as the usual answers!

you finally got the spoilers right 🎉🎉🎉

It still shows up strangely on my end, but as long as it works for everyone then I'm happy 😅

:::spoiler Spoiler I got the anagram just by spotting it, what the devil is the aussie connection? (pun intended) :::

I had difficulty understanding the pun, and got to the solve eventually, mostly through luck. Some of the clues were tricky, but worked out in the end. good job.
