Is it the beginning of something great?! Perhaps it’s the begining of something lovely, yet short? The truth is, much remains up in the air as of today, but I do know that I’m in a wonderful mood, having officially restarted my career again today! This day was in waiting for a long, long time, and I clocked out with a head (and heart) full of thoughts and feelings today, so I just had to stop by! Thanks so much for always being so gracious and supportive, and I hope you enjoy!

What. A. DAY!!! Today has left me with an unrivaled smile on my face, and such energy in my stomach, and it just so happens that the landing strip for all of these happy thoughts is... the NFL picks episode?! Look, sometimes things just work out like that on this anything goes lil' pod, a pod that you all are beyond wonderful to support. I thank you all for the indescribable joy you bring me, and I hope you enjoy this week's picks! (I've gotta do a wholeeee lot better this week!)

On and on it goes, that being one of the most packed weeks in the history of 23 Cents! Tonight, it's time to check in with ol' reliable, Off The Cuff. This week, so much of what's been on my mind revolves around getting back into the swing of things professionally this coming Monday, and thus making the most out of my extra time this week. Oh, and of course, I had to make sure I gave you all an update on my mom's adventures out in Madrid! Thank you all so much for supporting the series, and I hope you enjoy!

Oh man, I cannot WAIT until Mitch sees the pic I chose for the thumbnail of this episode! It'd been quite awhile since we last dropped an Admiration Hour episode on 23 Cents, but after taking some time to really soak in my trip out to Washington this past Summer, this episode was always in the making. I'm so damn lucky to have a cousin like Mitch, and here's to many more years of poking at each other, all out of love! Thanks to everyone for supporting, and I hope you enjoy!

I think we can all come to a collective agreement that we not only needed that finale, but deserved it. We have seen several recent seasons in the Bachelor franchise end in a relative crash landing, and with the tumult we'd already seen headed into tonight, it was fair to wonder whether this season was headed in a similar direction. I'm here to break down every little thing that went down during the three-hour finale episode, and look ahead towards what's to come in Michelle's season. Thanks so much for tagging along during this season, and I hope you enjoy!

Six loooooong months... that's what it took to slice the MLB into three equal groups, and chuck two of those groups in the bin (go ahead and guess which group the Mets are in...). Now, ten teams remain, with all eyes locked on the 2021 World Series trophy! The playoffs open with a matchup for the ages on Tuesday night, and from there, the drama and intrigue will likely only grow! The beauty of baseball is that no one knows a damn thing regarding what's about to unfold this October, but whatever happens, I am here for it! Thank you all so much for listening, and I hope you enjoy!

I hold up my hand and accept all blame, because it has been FAR too long since we last tackled a set of top ten rankings here on the pod. The wait is over, and with this latest ranking topic, I have a funny feeling that I may have left myself open to crushing critiques, which I would honestly understand, because people are truly passionate about Fall, including myself! As always, let me know how you thought I did, and share your rankings as well! Thank you so much for supporting, and I hope you enjoy!

The NFL season is a grueling 18-week grind, not only for the players, but also for those of us watching from the comfort of our couches and restaurant booths (this sentence is completely inaccurate, so please do not disown me). This week, I've added a little something to the weekly picks that I think could serve as a bit of spice to keep things interesting as the season continues on. Let me know what you all think, and as always, thank you so much for your support! I hope you enjoy!

Helloooo everyone, and Happy October! The spookiness, the decorations, the pumpkin pie (and pumpkin (almost) everything)! Less than an hour into the new month, I decided to hop on the mic and go Off The Cuff! I really ramble in this one, due in large part to a very enjoyable night with Louis, so I apologize greatly in advance XD. Damn right I put an XD in the description! Thank you all so much for listening, and I hope you enjoy!

Well, that one hit deeply. It's plenty painful to witness the partial downfall of one favorite cast member during an episode, but to see things go awry for BOTH of my long-term favorites?! I mean, it's simply too much to take! With the finale coming up next week, we had to know there would be some twists and turns heading in our direction in the penultimate episode of the season, but I did NOT see these being the twists, or the turns for that matter. Bach Nation, another season is almost finished, and I thank you all for following along with me! I hope you enjoy!
