  • #11 Talking The Bible Recap (w/ Ryan Schumpert)

    A long time coming on this one! I enlisted the help of my friend Schump to talk about our experiences with The Bible Recap: a 365-day reading plan through the entire Bible. We share our thoughts on the plan, some of our biggest lessons learned from studying the Bible in a year, and why we think it's a valuable resource (spoiler alert: we both highly recommend it!)

  • #9 Explaining Taylor Swift Buying Back Her Masters (w/ Loren Provins)

    Today, I had to call in Loren to talk some big Taylor Swift news: she just bought back her Masters! If you don't get what the deal is with this news or why 'Taylor's Verison's' are a thing, this is the episode for you. 

    We start at the beginning and hit the highlights on the battle for Taylor to buy back her Master Recordings, and explain why that's such a big deal. Plus, we'll talk a bit about our fav TV tracks and speculate on what's next for Miss Swift.

  • #8 On Summer Bucket Lists

    Summer is right around the corner, so I explain why I'm not doing a Summer Bucket List this year. Instead, I'll share my thoughts on Summer Boot Camp (tm tm), and what books I'm excited to read as a part of that 'camp.'

    Do you resonate more with Summer Goals, or a Summer Bucket List? What goal or bucket list item are you most looking forward to tackling this summer?! Let me know on my Instagram or IRL! :)

  • #7 Where I've Been & NCAA Softball Supers

    Hey friends - I'm back! Today I talk a bit about the chaotic Spring Season, and use it to talk about the NCAA Softball Super Regionals which start later this week. I went over some of the biggest moments from Regional Play, and give you the three Super Sites I'm most excited about (I bet you can't guess #1). 

    PS: I got a new mic - but it picked up my drier, so I will work on not podcasting & doing laundry at the same time. 

    PPS: Sorry for how many times I say the word 'interesting'.

  • #3 Survivor! and the Joy of Geeking Out

    (*Read this in a Jeff Probst voice*) Coming up this week, on All Things Alyson the Podcast: I sit down and explain how I, Disney Adult and lover of modern convenience, became a Survivor fan. I also explain the joy of geeking out and using it as a means of connection. And finally, we'll take a look at an Oral History of the first season of Survivor - looking at some fun facts about this risky 'reality' show that is now a pop culture staple.
