Say It Southern

LAWD, y’all—we told you a whole lot has happened since we last checked in, and it sure has! Between the whirlwind of kicking off a new year, our kids getting their licenses, moving homes, and starting new jobs, we’ve had more than our fair share on our plates. On a real and vulnerable note, we’ve been missing The Getaway something fierce. Sometimes, knowing when to press pause is a lesson all its own, and it takes true courage to do if it feels right. We needed that pause—to reflect, reset, and dream up something fresh. The goal? To come back bigger and better than ever in 2026!

So come on and join us as we Say It Southern with Courtney and Sarah!

We’re Back, Y’all! Catching Up After Summer on Say It Southern

After a little summer breather, Say It Southern is back in your ears — and we’ve missed y’all something fierce! In this week’s episode, we’re catching up on everything that’s been going on in our lives over the past few months. From family trips to juggling work and home life, it's been a whirlwind. Sometimes a little pause is just what the soul needs, and now we’re recharged, refreshed, and ready to dive back in.

We’re also chatting about our latest TV obsessions — because let’s be honest, a good show is therapy in itself. Whether you're into thrillers, southern dramas, or comfort comedies, we’re sharing what we’ve been watching, what we loved, and what we maybe gave up on. And of course, we want to know what you have been up to, too. What have you been watching, reading, or just loving this summer?

POCKETPOD May Mamas.

LORD. HAVE. MERCY. Is this the longest month of the year or what??? It feels like May gets crazier and crazier every year. It’s the month of lasts and we are talking about it ALLLL on this episode of the Say it Southern Podcast.

Mamas, we see you; with the bags under your eyes and the tank on empty. We see you flying into the recitals and championships and tryouts and graduations. We know you are hemmoraging cash just like we are.

We see you. We feel you. We are you. Come on JUNE.
