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!

Congrats on 300 episodes! Thanks for making me laugh every week
You ladies are the highlight of my week! It’s like a conversation with my sister. Happy Anniversary! I look forward to many more years.
Happy 15th Anniversary and 300 episodes! I have been listening to you for years and I am so happy you now do an episode every week.
Sophie! Listening to you and Melanie brings me so much joy. My favorite is when you laugh and get tickled about things. I love hearing your perspective on everything and you have really helped shape me as a mom. (I have a 5 year old daughter and 6 month old daughter.) You have given me comfort and guidance and just so much joy over the years. You and Melanie are such a blessing to me! Your work is bigger than you know. And thank you for the laughs, make up, and fashion tips too!
My favorite podcast! Ladies you make me laugh every week! Never miss an episode. Congratulations on 15 years and 300 episodes!
Thank you for entertaining me every week! You and Melanie feel like friends down the street.
Happy 15 years and 300 episodes! Been listening since the start. Y’all have joined me on many a walks through the years. Thanks for making me laugh on all your platforms!
Yay! So fun!!
I love your podcast! Congrats on #300!
Happy Anniversary, Big Boo Cast!
Y’all are the highlight of my week! Congrats to 15 years!
Congrats on 15 years and 300 episodes!! Love the podcast!!
Happy Podiversary!
I used to makes daily stops at BooMama Blog & BigMama blog, and now I don’t miss an episode of the Big Boo Cast. You two are so relatable, fun, and easy to listen to. I’ll definitely be around for the next 300! Thank you!
Y’all make my walks more fun.
Happy happy!! So glad y’all keep on keeping on!
Congratulations on 15 years! I discovered y’all around episode 248.. and you quickly became my favorite podcast. I’ve learned so much from y’all — and I look forward to each week to hear your take on ALL THE THINGS. Please don’t ever stop because y’all are a delight to listen too. Plus I know more about SEC football than ever! Thanks so much!
I read both of your blogs before you were even podcasters! I remember your first podcast, and thinking, “What is a podcast? I don’t even understand!” You ladies were ahead of your time. I’m so glad you podcast regularly now! I feel like I know you both personally which is super strange because you wouldn’t know me from Adam if we met at Trader Joe’s or Target! ????
Congrats on this milestone!
Happy 300th show!! I’ve loved every episode. Many packages have arrived on my porch thanks to you and Melanie ????
I look forward to listening to you every Thursday during my workout. I love to hear you talk about college sports. Congratulations on your 300th episode and keep it going!
As a HUGE college sports fan (Let’s Go Mountaineers & Woo Pig Soooie) I absolutely LOVE your podcast! I relate to you and Melanie on so many things and while I’m a little older, we could be real life friends if we lived in the same town. I’m very envious of y’alls participation in SEC Media Days, but so enjoyed all you shared with us. I’ve also enjoyed y’alls books I’ve read. I always look forwatd to your new podcasts! Thanks for all the laughs, along with a few tears!
What a fun episode!! Always a bright spot in my week!
Congratulations on 15 years and 300 episodes! I have listened to each one and some more than once.
Congratulations
If all else fails, “squeeze a little lime on it”!
Thank you to you and Melanie for bringing me joy each week! Here’s to another 300 episodes! Cheers and all the best!
Love listening to you ladies….such s delight!
I love the podcast! It brings such joy to my week! Congrats on 300 episodes and 15 years!!
Congratulations on 300. Love listening to you all. So funny. Here’s to 300 more!
The Big Boo Cast is my favorite podcast and I have truly enjoyed every episode through the years. When I took my son to college nine years ago, listening to you two on the way home and on many other trips back and forth, was like having two friends in the car with me. Thanks for years of laughter and entertainment and congratulations on 300 episodes!
I’ve been listening to y’all since the dawn of time, and *Martha voice* would you just look at this podcast! Finding another podcast that makes me as happy as this would be as hard to find as Sam Edelman Camellia boots. From raccoons in chimneys to June’s Journey weekend tournaments, y’all never disappoint when I need to hear about someone else’s unbelievably exciting day to day. Thank you for the work y’all put in to this for us, and I hope to be able to keep listening for another 15 years! ??
Congratulations on this fabulous milestone! I have loved every minute of your podcasts, so appreciate your down to earth take on this wonderful season of life! Y’all have unknowingly made my many trips between CLL & HSV seem much faster! :-)
I love you ladies and am so happy you’ve continued podcasting. Happy 300! You are the highlight of my morning commute and the only reason I can semi discuss football with my coworkers ????
Have I missed the train? I’m running after the caboose here, wanting to be entered into the drawing for winners. I listened to this episode while doing yardwork. Seattle transplant here now living in Tampa Bay area – the heat was about enough. Thanks for joining me in my misery. (I’m not a yard rat.) Anyhoo. It would just be great to win because you spur too many purchases after listening each week. Wanna know OUR favorites of yours? Tough to say but I’ll offer the lash curler. OK enough out of me. Let’s hang out soon. Love to you both.
Yall are my friends that go with me wherever I go. Your episodes feel like I’m on a call with my friends. Thank you for 15 years — I think I came in around 6-7 years ago, but I caught up back to the beginning during a LONG road trip back then and always move you to “Listen Next” in my queue whenever a new episode pops up! And thanks for linking all.the.things in show notes!
Congratulations on 15 years! I look forward to your podcast every week! Love you ladies! ??
Congrats on 300 episodes, love you ladies!
Congratulations on 15 years and 300 episodes!!! Thanks for all the laughs, fun, sharing your lives and favorite things!!
Congratulations on 300 episodes!!!! Who cares how long it took you to get to this point? We don’t! ?
Every time your podcast pops up with a new one, I have to listen right away. You ladies brighten my week! Thanks for being genuine and also making me laugh out loud. You’re the best!
Love the podcast!!
Congrats on 300 episodes! Chips & guac for all!
Congratulations on 15 years and 300 episodes! I’ve listened to all of your episodes and the podcast is a bright spot in my week. Thank you!
Congratulations on 300 episodes!
I’ve enjoyed them all; mostly because I share your love for football. Yes, I believe we have an unusual enthusiasm unknown to mankind! ????
This is my favorite show to listen to every week! I’ve been here since the beginning and I wouldn’t miss an episode. Congratulations on such a big accomplishment!
Congratulations on 15 years and 300 podcasts! I have listened and delighted in them all.

I am so thankful that a precious friend introduced me to your podcast during quarantine because I got many rooms in my house painted while laughing so much that the time just flew past. You and Melanie have been an incredible blessing to me and I have told “soooo many people” about your wonderful show. Living in Birmingham, I enjoy hearing you speak of local shops, restaurants, and events and since you will be speaking at my church next week I have the pleasure of hearing you speak in person. I simply can’t thank you enough and look forward to each new episode so please keep them coming!
Congratulations! I’ve been listening for 8 years but did go back and listen from the beginning! So glad you podcast regularly now ????????
I love your podcast. Every single week. I’m fact, I just ordered one of the five favorites whilst on the way to church this morning. Thankyouverymuch!

You guys are the best!! Happy Anniversary and happy 300th episode.
Happy 300th and 15th year. I have triplet girls that just graduated from college and I just love listening to your Caroline and Alex stories – it’s like a walk down memory lane! They are blessed to have such lovely ladies as moms!!
I met the two of you during quarantine and yet it feels like I have known you forever! Happy 300th episode!
Congratulations! My favorite podcast, look forward to hearing a new episode every week. Hearing Alex and Caroline was precious.
Happy 15yrs! You have to know that I take your cracker and food reviews very seriously ????
Your podcast is the highlight of my week! I always feel like I’m sitting with my best friends listening to my favorite conversations!
Congratulations Sophie on 15 years and your 300th podcast! I so enjoy listening to you and Melanie being I am an SEC fan also. Roll Tide! I have read all your books and have laughed, cried and thoroughly enjoyed them. You encourage, inspire and bless me. Thank you so much and God Bless You!
Love the podcast!
One of my favorite podcast moments was when Sophie looked it up and realized that the date of the 300th podcast was also your 15th anniversary! I mean, what are the odds that a couple of 9’s could’ve had such a chronologically organized podcast, haha? Congratulations to both of you! Looking forward to many more to come.
Congratulations and love the podcast!
Congratulations! Love listening to you all each week!
I know a lot of work goes into making this the funnest hour of my week, and I am most grateful! Bless you for sharing your life with us!
Your podcast is such a bright spot in my week, and has caused quite a bit of silent laughter during my commute! Looking forward to 300 more episodes!
Congratulations on 300 episodes and 15 years! I can’t wait to listen and laugh each week when it comes out!
Thanks for all the laughs!
Best part of every Thursday morning drive to work. Team Big Boo!
I absolutely love listening to you every week! It’s a highlight of my week! Congrats on 300 episodes!
I’ve loved the podcast for so long and can’t wait for episodes to drop each week to catch up with y’all. Much love to you both, from a Florida Gator girl! xoxo
Well, everyone who commented before is correct…y’all are a delight and a weekly highlight! I think it says so much that my 35 year old daughter, 26 year old niece, and I text all the time with great “stuff” we’ve heard or learned from you two. Crossing generations with heart and humor. #won’thedoit ??
Silent laughter followed by squeaky laughter is my favorite!! Happy 300th episode!
Thank you for entertaining us all these years! It’s been so fun!
Love this podcast!!!
Thanks for sharing you lives with us.
It is a bright spot in my week.
Congratulations on 300!
Can’t wait for many more!
I found the podcast sometime just before COVID started, I think. Since then, it’s been a joy of my week. Y’all are just good friends staying in touch and having girl talk, some deep and some not-so-deep and that has filled an empty space.
Congratulations on the 300th episode
I put the wrong email congratulations
Favorite: when you two laugh so hard we can’t hear you anymore. I love laughing with you every week.
Praise Be! Thank you for the laughs each week!
Praise be!! Thank you for the laughs each week. I am posting again because I don’t think my first try worked. Technically challenged!! ????
CONGRATULATIONS! Your Podcast is an absolutely joy and one of the highlights of my week! Keep it up!!
What a journey! :) Thanks, Sophie, for bringing the laughs and heart… I am a long-time reader and listener. You and Melanie are a delightful duo.
300!!! Won’t he DO IT!!! You girls have made me love football, dips, friendship and Jesus more for 15 years! Here’s to the next 300!
The best podcast! Happy 300th episode :)
Love you guys! ??
Congratulations on 15 years and your 300th episode. I hope moving Alex in went well. I love listening to you girls. You ALWAYS put a smile on my face.
Hey Melanie and Sophie-
I’ve been listening to your podcast forever! I’ve seen Melanie speak at my home church in Lake Jackson (home of the first Buc-ee’s) and both Melanie and Sophie together at First Baptist in Houston. Sophie has me now hooked on June’s Journey!
Congratulations! Love listening every week!
Congratulations on the big 300! Sophie, you are hilarious! I hope Alex has a blast at Samford! You and Melanie are bringing so much joy, tv commentary, skin care, food guidance, and fashion wisdom! Thank you for taking time to create this podcast; it is a safe harbor for listeners from all walks of life! Next time you and your friends are visiting Chattanooga, try Champy’s Chicken, Community Pie, Urban Stack, 1885 Grill, or Scottie’s on the River.
I live on Lookout Mountain in Georgia.
