Flushing 411

Sap, sap, SAP!!! Yes, tis the season for all of the emotional thoughts to be sent our there with pride! Recording this episode left me in such a happy, celebratory mood that I immediately made a beeline for the local liquor store for a bottle of Prosecco. A hugeeee thanks to each and every one of you, whether I know you personally or not, for being the some of the kindest souls I've ever encountered! Happy Thanksgiving everyone!

The countdown is on! We're just a couple weeks away from watching this season give us all the answers we seek, and this week, with some of the eliminations being a bit more predictable, we still have much to learn! This episode was a first for me: a Bach Cap while outside. I'll explain within... Thanks so much for keeping up with the series this season, and I hope you enjoy!

It felt like it'd be fitting (and fun) to put a capper on my brief jaunt out to Chicago, which was just fantastic! Sometimes it's the quick little trips that provide the most joy, momentarily changing the scenery around you while opening up doors into new experiences (Hello Art Institute of Chicago). I had to take a rain check on our regularly scheduled Bach Cap, but I promise to swing by tomorrow for that one. Until then, thanks so much for tuning in, and I hope you enjoy!

Well well well, don't look now, but after a putrid beginning to the competition that had Michael towering over me, I'm on my way back into the battle! In our first five weeks of pitting our picks against one another, Michael came away with four wins, with the lone other result being a tie. After back to back winning weeks, if I can pull off another this week, I'll be just one win behind the young man! This weeks 14 game slate provides some solid games and some real questions that must be answered. Thanks so much for tuning in, and I hope you enjoy!

I must say, I absolutely love the Vlogcast concept that I've brought to the podcast! At times, traveling alone can feel a bit lonely and daunting, and you just find yourself wishing you could share the experiences with others in your life, both specific and unspecific. The Vlogcast is a way to at least verbally interact with some of the greatest people I know, and share said experiences, and it means so much to me that you all support these episodes! I hope you enjoy this one, the Chicago edition!

The gang is back together again, and this time, we dive into both the latest in the Premier League and in World Cup Qualifying. Since the last time we all gathered and chatted, a whopping ten new nations have punched their tickets to the world's largest sports tournament this time next year, bringing the total count to 13. As always, thank you so much for giving us a listen, and we hope you enjoy!

This one was a longgg one, and looking back on it, I really went all over the place this week! This is a great time of year to reflect on what makes life great, and in my case, a huge part of that are the people around me. Unfortunately, the Mets do NOT make my life better, and I speak on them too! Really, there is too much to write a description for here, but I sure do hope you all enjoy the episode!

I cannot emphasize enough how much we needed tonight! I may just be speaking for myself, but I enjoyed this week's Bachelorette episode more than any other week during Michelle's season thus far, and it's not particularly close. The change of scenery seemed to do wonders for everyone, especially the producers, who were able to get sooo much more creative with their date ideas! We're now down to eight men left, although there's simply no denying that two of the eight are way ahead of the pack... Thanks so much for listening, and I hope you enjoy!

It took nearly two full months, but I can at long last say that my picks won the battle last week! Yes, it was far from pretty, but a win is a win! This is such an exciting period within the NFL calendar, with the weather beginning to turn and the playoff race beginning to take shape simultaneously. We still have plenty to learn about all 32 teams in the league (except for maybe the Texans), and Week 10 promises to be a great opportunity to do so, with a lot of matchups that could really go either way... Thanks so much for tuning in, and I hope you enjoy!

I'm just proud of myself for making it through this weeks OTC without going on a tangent about daylight savings time (get rid of it!). Hello again everyone, and thanks for stopping in! This week, I had a lot of great things to discuss, especially my cousin Jacqui and I finally getting to spend time together on the East Coast for the first time since I was in high school. As always, let me know any answers you may have to the question in this weeks episode, and I hope you enjoy!
