In a twist no one saw coming—mainly because no one thought to ask—Episode 57 delivers a new first in AI scoring that’s so inconceivable, Chris uses the “H” word. But that’s just the hors d'oeuvre. The real entrée? A forensic look at The Piña Colada Song, revealing a couple so emotionally constipated they need print classifieds to cheat on each other—only to accidentally fall in love again through mutual infidelity and tropical cocktails. Marriage: solved.
But wait, there’s a side of Bonaduce. Yes, that’s right. Danny "I-might’ve-been-drafted" Partridge himself pops in for a gloriously unhinged voice memo that sets off a nostalgia avalanche for the Partridge Family bus, tambourine storage logistics, and braces that receive FM radio. Buckle up for conspiracies about Shirley Partridge’s mysterious husband,Vietnam-era sitcom storylines, and Jeff’s grim fan theory about Rupert Holme’s unholy ear worm.
This installment is a tribute to everything wonderfully wrong with ‘70s lyrics—and it might just be the most batshit episode yet.
