    Theme explanation: MRMARINER is Alvin Davis, TINDERSWINDLER is Simon Leviev, and THETRUSTBUSTER is Theodore Roosevelt... Alvin, Simon, and Theodore make up the CHIPMUNKS who sing the "Witch Doctor" song (ooh eeh ooh ah aah ting tang walla walla bing bang)

        Thanks - I didn’t even notice, that pairing was not intentional at all

          Thanks Capn! My original thought was to turn it into a meta and you had to solve for the band name
