Five(ish) Fangirls Episode #395: Let's Get Weird

 

He's arguably the most famous accordion player in an extremely specific genre of music and the soundtrack to several generations. It's time for us to don our Hawaiian shirts and take a look at the life and career of Weird Al Yankovic. We discuss his extensive music and acting catalog and our thoughts about "Weird: The Al Yankovic Story". Plus Rachel includes some amusing anecdotes including how she once asked Al to her high school prom, along with a later time she met Al that left her literally speechless. Finally, we don't have much in the way of news this week, but we do have your feedback.
