Five(ish) Fangirls Episode #177: All Magic Comes At A Price

Normally this is the point where we'd tell you to join us as we discuss the mid-season return of Once Upon A Time, but our discussion was really more of a rant. For better or worse we're sticking around till the end, but we aren't necessarily happy about it. Plus news, including another rant about a certain fandom that's reaching it's saturation point. And your feedback!
