Well, it’s our 300th episode – and our 15th podcast-i-versary – and Melanie and I are thrilled about both of these things. WHO WOULD HAVE EVER THOUGHT. So, as you can imagine, we do a little reminiscing on this episode, but we also do a lot of talking about the here and now. That is because this is the week that Alex moves to college, and we have a lot to break down about that.
As always we recap our weekends, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites.
Hope y’all enjoy!

LOVE your podcast! Congratulations on 300!!
Sophie what a day for you!! 300 episodes, 15 years and launching your baby into the world. Sending you blessings and hugs????????
BigBoo cast is my absolute favorite thing!!
Congrats on 300 episodes. You all have made me laugh and made me cry and made my wallet a little lighter with all your recommendations.
Love the Big Boo podcast! I’ve been listening since 2007! Look forward to Wednesday night as well as the Patreon episodes!
Love y’all so much! Truly the only podcast that I support on Patreon. Love your laughs and insights.
Congrats on 300! Love listening every week!
Your podcast is one of the highlights of my week every single week, and I am more grateful for y’all than I can say!! Thank you so much for all the joy you bring to our lives.
Okay, ladies happy 300th!!! I’ve listened probably since the kiddos were in late middle school! One of my favorite things is my husband calls you all “the southern ladies that talk about football” and that’s now how we refer to you all. I will say something and he will be like “how do you know who Jimbo Fisher is??” And I’m like “the southern football ladies podcast” :) I love you all so much. I feel like we are real friends and you’re my big sisters, just one step ahead of me. You all got me through lock down days too! Love being a Patreon supporter!
Sophie, You and Melanie are the most delightful blessing every week. I talk back to y’all every time I listen. Thanks for showing up each week and congrats on 15 years! PS Didn’t find y’all until 2012, but I totally would have listened to you read InStyle. ;-)
I love your podcast and your books! Congratulations on 15 years!
I have listened since the beginning! Y’all are a highlight of my week!
Well, isn’t it just so fun to come full circle— back to the blogs!! I told Melanie I feel like it’s 2010 all over again, me commenting on your blogs! ????
Thanks for sharing your lives with us for the past 15 years.
Happy 300th, 15 years!!! Sophie, I feel like I’ve known you and your family for years. I’ve had the pleasure of meeting you twice, love and in person, and each time you’ve been as gracious, warm and real as anybody could ever hope for. I love your stories and look forward to listening to yours and Melanie’s latest news every Thursday morning.
How you got through the intro (which was simply delightful!!) while getting ready to take Alex to school is a mystery. Kadoos to you for getting through it!! Praying for you and David tonight and I’m so thankful it didn’t rain all day.
Love, your biggest fan. ????
I’ve been listening to the podcast for 7 years (but have gone back to listen from the beginning) and it makes me so happy to get the alert that a new podcast is available. You two are like listening to the older sisters I never had but always wanted. Haha! Over the past few years, I’ve gotten a few of my close friends into your podcast and books so now we all have to chat about the podcast each week like y’all are our friends, too!
Congratulations on 300!! Have loved the podcast for years
Wishing you 300 or more episodes!
Congratulations to two women I’ve never met but consider my friends and experts on what I should be buying. lol
Thank you for years of laughter and fun. I so appreciate the friendship you and Melanie have fostered over the years and the kindness and respect you show one another. You are a delight to my week. Congrats on 300 episodes and cheers to many more. May the Lord Bless You.
Congrats ????????????????????????????????????
!!!!!!! Not ??? ????????????
Love you both so much!!!
Loved hearing the trip down memory lane!
Congratulations to you and Melanie on your 300th episode and 15th podcast-iversary! I was introduced to your podcast last summer and have listened every week since. I recently shared it with a friend and could only describe it was two friends in the 90’s having a weekly catch-up on a corded phone in their kitchens, and I picked up the other phone in the house to listen in. Here’s to many more conversations about weekends and football and faith and skincare and so much more!!
Congratulations on 300 episodes and 15 years. I’ve listened since the beginning and love to share time with you each week.
The Bid Boo Podcast was the first podcast I ever listed to and is by far my favorite. My husband will even listen when we are in the car on a trip. Especially during football season. I wish you both a very happy #300!
Congratulations on 300 episodes! I love listening to you in my car. I have laughed and cried many times while driving by myself! Thank you for sharing your lives with us. I also have to say—Go Hogs!????
Congrats! I discovered your podcast about a year and half ago and I have been listening to all the episodes whenever I get a chance! Y’all bring a smile to my face and warm my heart!
Congratulations!! Thank you for bringing joy and laughter to your listeners. You make 1 of my workouts each week such a pleasure as I listen and laugh out loud!
Happy 300th! Each episode is a delight and has gotten me through many road trips and dog walks.
One of my favorite podcasts! I love listening to these ladies every week, and on Patreon! They’re funny, encouraging, and enjoyable to listen to!
So glad I found this podcast, it brings so much joy to me in the middle of the week! Congrats on 300 episodes!
I love you both! I’ve listened to every podcast & read every book both y’all have written. I have also met both of you at different times. I feel such a connection with both of y’all – I went to U of Alabama so most of my sorority sisters live in B’ham but I now live in Texas & my girls went to A&M. Congratulations on 15 years & 300 episodes! I look forward to listening to many more????????
Love your podcast! Thanks for entertaining me for 15 years!
Congratulations on 300! Hopefully you reach your 600 episode before 2037! ????

Congratulations on 300 episodes! I have laughed with you & look forward to listening each week. Can’t wait until football season….y’all make it so fun. God bless & look forward to at least 300 more.
As a stay at home mom of a two year old and four year old, listening to the podcast just helps me feel like a person and not just the keeper of the snacks and a professional butt-wiper. That’s for being my audio friends!
My favorite podcast I listen to every week. I’m a mom to a two year old and 7month old and this podcast just feels like a warm hug every week reminding me that this time is short and one day I’ll be sending them off to college! Plus the college football chat gives me just enough info each week to impress my husband. Happy 300th episode!
I have so enjoyed the last 300 episodes!
Love y’all so much! Congrats on 300!!!! You girls always make my week!
I love the positivity and fun that you share on your podcast! Thank you for bringing us all a little joy to our weeks!

My sister in law and I listen to your podcast and then recap your podcast with one another in a phone call. We refer to our phone call recaps as a companion to your podcast. Thank you for your delightful content.
Y’all have kept me company during sweet and sour times, made me laugh, warmed my heart, and helped me have relevant football adjacent conversations. Congrats on 15/300!
