Mamma Mia!
On this episode, we fill a major pop culture gap (according to Jess) for Marvin and Hanh with our discussion of Mamma Mia! and it's sequel, Mamma Mia! Here We Go Again! After much cajoling, we hunkered down and finally watched this adaptation of the stage musical featuring the music of ABBA about one daughter's ill advised plot to find our which of the three men her mother slept with is her real father. So was it good pop?

Listen to Inheriting from LAist & NPR
"Inheriting" is a show about Asian American and Pacific Islander families, which explores how one event in history can ripple through generations. In doing so, the show seeks to break apart the AAPI monolith and tell a fuller story of these communities. In each episode, NPR’s Emily Kwong sits down with one family and facilitates deeply emotional conversations between their loved ones, exploring how their most personal, private moments are an integral part of history. Through these stories, we show how the past is personal and how to live with the legacies we’re constantly inheriting. New episodes premiere every Thursday.
