Five(ish) Fangirls Episode #430: Mama Mia!

It's time to wear your dancing shoes and party with Donna and the Dynamos! This week we dive into the jukebox musical, Mama Mia, built around the catalogue of songs from the band ABBA. Also, Rachel has her recap of Indy PopCon, including how she ended up with that crazy video with Michael Rooker. We ran a little long so your feedback will be included next episode, but we have a little news that leads to several tangents.
