We just got back from Arkansas—and this trip was one for the books. In this episode, we reflect on what it was like returning to the Big House, reuniting with family, and introducing our girls to the places Jinger grew up—including a sweet moment showing them her childhood room.

We talk about the joy and complexity of going home: Jinger shares how it felt to be back, the unexpected guilt of living far away, and why this visit brought both comfort and healing. Plus, a full broomball reunion (yes, with all the gear and none of the rules), cousin time, and a necessary stop at Braums!

It was nostalgic, emotional, and surprisingly refreshing—and we’re excited to bring you along for the recap.
