The Big Boo Cast

On this week's episode Melanie and I are astounded by the bid day balloon art at the University of Arkansas, not to mention that Melanie teaches me some things about how to list clothes on Poshmark and she has approximately 48 TV show recommendations* since I am in a TV slump. 

*This is a slight exaggeration.

I also rave a little bit about our latest Patreon book club book, and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.

Hope you enjoy!

This week Melanie and I are both awash in the most tender feelings about friendship, so Melanie shares all about her weekend at the lake with friends - and I share (part of) a poem, written back in the year of our Lord 1990, that Emma Kate recently discovered when she was cleaning out her parents' house. 

Also, Mel tells us about spending a day at the Hotel Emma pool with Caroline, we discuss that we're both in a rut with earrings, and it's my turn for Five Favorites.

Enjoy, everybody!

On this episode I give an update on post-surgery Lucy, Melanie relays the details of a Lionel Richie concert, and we speculate maybe way too much about what Lionel's health concerns might be. We also talk about Melanie and Caroline's great decorative achievements with a gallery wall.

On top of that, we discuss a current frustration I have with Amazon, and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites. 

Hope you enjoy!

This week Melanie shares about her pool day with Caroline, I talk about my weekend with Lucy (she's really warming up), and we both have watched way more TV than is probably wise.

We also discuss what could potentially be an exciting new angle for SEC Media Days coverage (you'll understand why that's a pun when you listen), and it's my turn for Five Favorites.

Enjoy, everybody!

On this week's episode, Melanie has been to Colorado, I have been at the house (hoping that our new dog will love us), and we've both been thinking about the upcoming college football season and SEC Media Days.

We also discuss what we've been reading (I'm sad to say that I haven't watched a thing other than Bravo), and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.

Hope you enjoy!

This week we have a new family member in Birmingham, Melanie has done the Lord's work with furniture assembly, and we both discover that we apparently share a theory about why we continue to be fairly decent at stretching. Not that we're bragging, you understand. 

We've also read some things and watched some things, and it's my turn for Five Favorites.

Enjoy, everybody!

There's been a whole lot of life since last week's episode: Melanie moved Caroline into a new apartment, I've had a ton of soccer-adjacent fun in Birmingham, and we've both made the Taylor & Travis wedding coverage into a full-fledged hobby at this point. On top of that, we've celebrated the 4th of July, and I've done an unprecedented amount of dog-sitting.

We also discuss what we've been watching (the World Cup and more), and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.

Hope you enjoy!

On this episode Melanie says that I am "one seat shy of a beanbag" because I do not follow our typical recording protocol. That is to say: I recorded this episode while sitting on my bed. NEVERTHELESS comma we cover so many topics where we were in need of a catch-up: my family time with Jackson's dog, Oakley; the latest in San Antonio; and our ongoing efforts to appreciate and understand the Summer House universe.

We also discuss our plans for the 4th of July, and it's my turn for Five Favorites.

Hope you enjoy!

This is our 500th regular episode (technically we've recorded more than that because 1) we've done some special episodes and 2) we've recorded over 200 bonus episodes on Patreon - but you know we are never going to burden ourselves with any unnecessary math), and hopefully you'll be delighted to know that it's business as usual for this particular podcast milestone. Melanie has sprained her ankle, I've done a whole lot of cooking, and we've both watched all the college baseball (not to mention DCC) that we possibly can.

Mel also shares about Caroline's trip to Brazil, and it's her turn for Five Favorites.

Thanks so much for being here. We hope you enjoy!

This week Melanie and I talk about how (and why) we love to pack for a trip; I share some observations about the Men's College World Series; and Melanie tells a sad-but-true tale involving a plumbing issue and a very unfortunate skunk. It feels like a lot has happened over the last week. 

We also discuss what we're enjoying about the World Cup, and it's my turn for Five Favorites. 

Enjoy, everybody!
