Much to our delight, there have been lots of fun life events since our last episode. Melanie got to watch her Aggies win their super regional and secure their spot in the College World Series, and I got to go to Maine and New York City on a trip. We have so many words about all of these things.

We also discuss my somewhat awkward initial encounter with East Coast seafood (I was not equipped, y'all), and it's my turn for Five Favorites.

Hope y'all enjoy!
