You can find the Big Beacon audiobook on Audible here and the book itself here or here. There’s even a flipping special edition here!
And here’s just a bit of the love people had for the clip and the whole book.

That book is hysterical, proper laugh out loud stuff. Just finished the first one, Nomad, also hilarious.

If you don't consume Partridge books via audio you're missing out.
His recounting of his sons birth in "I, Partridge: We Need to Talk about Alan" is genuinely one of the funniest things ever.
