  It was quite a weekend for the Bulldogs and the Aggies, so on this episode (from the beach!) Melanie and I talk through our football thoughts and feelings, complete with Side Eyes and I See Yous. And in a development we didn't expect, we got to watch the Emmys together this past Sunday night, so we break down some of that as well.  We also mourn the loss of our beloved Hazel - man, that has been a heartbreaker - and it's my turn for Five Favorites.  Enjoy, everybody!

  This is an extra long episode thanks to Mississippi State's football stunner and my trip to the Mississippi Delta. I mean, WHAT A TIME, everyone. The Bulldogs got a signature win against Arizona State, and everything from the uniforms to the crowd to the social media to the CATCHING OF THE FOOTBALL was absolutely fantastic. Naturally Melanie and I break down all of my thoughts and reactions to the game, plus some observations about the college football weekend in general.  We also talk to our good friend Travis Cottrell - who's the special guest for our San Antonio live show - and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.

  The first big weekend of the 2025 college football season did not disappoint, and on this episode Melanie and I discuss some of our favorite parts (not to mention our Side Eyes and I See Yous). It didn't hurt that both the Aggies and the Bulldogs were victorious, though admittedly, those wins weren't necessarily pretty. On top of that, Melanie offers an update on Caroline's new Costco membership, and it's my turn for Five Favorites.

  On this week's episode Melanie and I recap our (very brief) time together in Nashville, we talk about all the reading I've done over the past week (it's obnoxious, really), and we discuss a couple of takeaways from the most recent round of RushTok (all the balloons at the University of Arkansas really made an impression on us).  We also break down my first attempt at playing mahjong, and it's my turn for Five Favorites.
