Puzzle #107: You Can Call Me... (with Rich Iurilli)

 Hi friends,  I'm back home from ACPT, and what a weekend! It was, by turns, incredibly fun and completely overwhelming. I had a blast.

You can find more of Matt's puzzles on his blog , and in a recent offering over at Defector .  Thank you, Matt! This puzzle is a mid-sized themed offering that's laden with fun.  Matt says: "This puzzle came into existence after the revealer phrase popped into my head one day, and I thought, "Maybe that could be something." So, I jotted it down, and later went searching for theme answers to see if anything would fit the bill. I ended up parking this on a midi-sized canvas because I didn't think the theme necessitated anything larger. I chatted with Will about it one day and he graciously offered to run it as  a guest puzzle on his site. I just so happened to be baking some banana chocolate chip muffins on the day we discussed the puzzle, so giving it a home on Half Baked ...
