    The Big Boo Cast, Episode 455
    2025/08/14
    This week Melanie shares all about her fun weekend at the lake, I share all about cleaning out my refrigerator (life is full of glamour and also thrills), and we both share about the season finale of The Gilded Age (spoiler alert: WE ADORED IT).

    We also do a quick analysis of groceries we throw away more often than not as well as dig into some of our recent thoughts about plastic surgery. Plus, it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.

    Hope you enjoy!

    On this week's episode Melanie and I discuss her flounder gigging experience, my (two!) trips to Mississippi, and a dessert at Bayonet here in Birmingham that absolutely blew my mind. Plus, we talk about some music we've loved lately and our shared delight about a new Hollywood couple.

    If that weren't enough (it probably isn't, but oh well - we tried), it's my turn for Five Favorites.

    Since our last episode I've been to New York City, Melanie has been to Nashville, and we both have stories to share. Truth be told, I sort of nerd it up this week as I share about the Broadway shows we saw on our trip, so please bear with me if that's not your sort of thing. MRS. HUDSON'S LITERARY CUP IS FULL.

    We also talk through a creative idea from Perry, and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.

    This week Melanie and I ponder the reality of technically being old enough to be grandmothers (we know it's a wonderful thing, but we're just not there yet) - which really makes Melanie's tale of her recent wedge-adjacent injury all the more timely (and perhaps painful). We also discuss some of the highlights of last week's SEC Media Days as well as the delight that is the new Billy Joel documentary.

    On top of all of that, it's my turn for Five Favorites.

    On this episode Melanie and I talk about - wait for it - COLLEGE FOOTBALL. It's the week of SEC Media Days, and that always sparks a little football reflection (and also hope!) in the two of us. Given that, we enjoy a little pre-season analysis of A&M's September schedule before we recap our weekends and discuss a movie that we both unexpectedly adored. What a time.

    Melanie also brings some rom-com concerns to the forefront, and it's her turn for Five Favorites.

    Our hearts are so heavy for everyone who has been impacted by the devastation of the Texas flooding, and we talk about that at the beginning of this episode. We didn't know how to transition into our normal brand of silliness without addressing it, and we're praying that the presence and the comfort of the Lord will be so palpable for everyone who is hurting. Jesus, be near.

    We also talk about my trip to Canada, Melanie's trip to Knoxville, and what we've been watching. Basically we just try to do what we usually do, and we hope that it will lighten a load / brighten someone's day a little bit.

    Take care, y'all.

    I'm on the Atlantic Ocean somewhere between Canada and Maine this week (Melanie opted out of the trip because of the aforementioned ocean), so we recorded this episode before I left Birmingham, and we asked our friend Cole Cubelic - who is one of our all-time favorite people - to join us. As some of you may remember, Melanie and I met Cole a couple of years ago after he saw us at an event where my hair clip was in a constant state of malfunction. Now he's like the little brother we didn't know we needed. So this week we catch up with him about life and his thoughts about this fall in the SEC and the real meanings behind phrases that coaches use over and over.

    We don't do Five Favorites this week, but I'll be back with five fresh favorites next week. :-)

    This week Melanie and I talk through our reactions to the College World Series (Razorbacks, we feel your pain, and Tigers, we congratulate you), we break down what's been going on in our respective lives over the past week, and we share some delight over all the good television that's been released since we last recorded.

    We also discuss the fact that Melanie ordered some chicken on the bone at a restaurant, and it's her turn for Five Favorites.
