Today's crossword has some remarkable words in the clues, let alone the answers. Certainly plangonologist has to win some sort of prize (77D, Things a plangologist collects, DOLLS), but we were also pleased to see a pentad pop up (52A, Pentad for a poetry performance?, FIVEPILLARSOFSLAM), and finally stan (2A, Band stan, GROUPIE).

Some of the clues not mentioned in today's episode but also worthy of note include 62D, "Do"-to-"do" delivery", SCALE (nice!); 29A, Nickname for Luigi, GIGIO, and 87D, Strapless accessories, CLUTCHES. 

A fine crossword by David Karp, and we hereby approve, bestowing it with 5 squares on the JAMCR scale
