The clue is a scintillating gossip sesh, which comes from the August 16, 2025, edition of the NYT Mini Crossword puzzle. The answer is made up of seven letters that will fill up the down section. The three words that make up this clue do pose a little bit of a challenge, but we got you covered.
A term where people gather to talk about such juicy information
The answer to the clue is called GABFEST. We have to dissect the three words first and starting with scintillating. This word means something along the lines of sparkling, shiny, clever, or something that catches your interest. Gossip is an act where people talk about something or someone behind their backs. Finally, sesh is the tricky word because this is slang for the word session.
We combine all three, and it can be shifted into an interesting gossip session. Gabfest fills this because gab means to talk or a stylish way of talking. Fest is a word where multiple people get in on the act, so this gabfest is made up of a lot of people partaking in the gossip.
