The Big Boo Cast, Episode 424

Clearly the Lord is up to something in 2025, because on this episode Melanie shares a tip for cooking with a rotisserie chicken, and I talk about seeing a movie that I had been resisting because of its rampant popularity (so sorry, I’m weird, still haven’t seen Titanic, etc.). On top of that, we recap our exciting New Year’s Eves (“exciting” is a relative term, but alas).

We also get an exciting update on the health of Melanie’s scalp, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites.

Hope you enjoy!

The Big Boo Cast, Episode 423

It’s our first regular episode of 2025, and we’re off to a strong start with some lighthearted grievances and inconveniences. The Aggies lost their bowl game, one of Mel’s refrigerators has gone on to its eternal reward, and the Shankles have had some unexpected visitors in their laundry room. VIVA LA 2025!

We also reflect on our words / phrases for 2024, discuss our words and phrases for the new year, and it’s Melanie’s turn for Five Favorites.
