**This episode was recorded prior to Margo's unfortunate passing towards the end of July. Our thoughts are with her family and loved ones.**

We're hitting the dance floor with Margo Donohue, the author of Fever: The Complete History of Saturday Night Fever. 

Margo joins Kristen and Emily to discuss John Travolta's rise to fame, New York in the 1970s, and whether contemporary audiences can find any redeeming qualities in these characters. We also talk about how much we love Donna Pescow. A lot!
