Description
*** EXPLICIT LANGUAGE WARNING ***
It's a very Charles Grodin episode to cover on the podcast!
When Grodin visits Bardwells, Laverne and Shirley get very different messages from their encounter with the actor. Laverne thinks he's into her and invites him to come over for a date. Shirley, on the other hand, thinks he's going to try to steal their jobs.
When Mr. Grodin arrives, he finds everyone at Laurel Vista in a bad mood and in the middle of a terrible series of fights. Shirley and Carmine are arguing over Carmine's cheapness and whether or not Rhonda's trying to come on to the Big Ragoo, the boys are mad because the hot water's run out in the middle of Squiggy's shower, and Rhonda...is dressed like a geisha for an acting gig. The friendly chaos leads Grodin to try and solve the conflict with self-help platitudes. But is that enough to get everyone to chill the heck out?! And will Laverne's heart be broken when she realizes he doesn't have romantic designs on her?
On pod, we talk the bizarre characterizations, whether Grodin is period accurate in the episode, and get a little saucy!
