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!

Congratulations on 300 episodes! I look so forward to each new episode!
I loved the podcast! The beginning was my favorite part. I have been reading both of your blogs since before you had the podcast and I have listened to and enjoyed every moment of your podcast journey. I am especially appreciative of y’all’s in depth knowledge of SEC football as I am a big football fan as well. I have been a patron for several months and really enjoy the extra content. I can’t wait for the next 300 episodes!
Y’all are so much fun, and bring me great joy every week as I listen to your podcast! It’s a highlight in my Wednesdays! I live in the Pacific Northwest (Eugene, OR) and am a Ducks fan, but I find myself rooting for the Bulldogs … which really baffles my husband!!
Keep doing what you do, you are so loved!
Thank you Sophie for being such a light to the world! Your sweet spirit is such a joy, and I look forward to listening to you each week. Congrats on episode 300! I look forward to the next 300 episodes!

I absolutely love this show and look forward to my Thursday drives to pre-school to pick up my daughter and getting to listen to the newest episodes. Thanks to you ladies, I have a little something extra to talk to my husband about (college football) and give me so many things to look forward to trying (skincare, clothes, recipes). I share all of the links with my mom who is not a podcast listener but loves your recommendations! I look forward to another 300 episodes, by which time I will likely be sending my 3 year old off to college as well. So much love and respect to you both and I wish you all the good fortune in the years to come. Thank you for putting “the Gospel all over it”
Love y’all’s podcast & books so much!!

You are my favorite podcast to listen to. Anytime I see a new podcast I KNOW I will laugh. If I am feeling down I will go back and listen to an episode just to laugh. I’ve enjoyed hearing what is going on in yalls life as I moved my daughter to college this year.

I’ve been reading and listening since the beginning! Yours were the first blogs I ever read and the first time I had ever heard of a podcast. I’ve enjoyed the Bravo discussions, the stories about your kids, the hair and skincare triumphs and failures, and of course all the sound issues. Thanks for being relatable and entertaining! Happy 300th episode!

Long time listener, long time reader! I lived for your LOST recaps (OH THE THEORIES). Congrats on 300, here’s to 300 more and then some!
Congratulations on the 300th podcast! What an accomplishment ???? I can not express just how much I adore this podcast and look forward to it every week! I even have it set on my calendar each week (not that I need reminding but this menopause brain of mine can be forgetful at times ????). I have searched for other podcasts to compliment listening to the Big Boo Cast, but nothing compare! I always feel like I’m with my BFFs listening to a conversation we would be having, when I listen to y’all’s podcast! Wishing y’all many many more years of success with the podcast and with other journeys God may lead y’all on! Love y’all ??
Did you already pick a winner? Maybe, that’s OK…. I love love love you ladies so much! Been reading your blog and listening to the pod since the beginning. My daughter was born 3 days after Caroline and was an only for 7.5 yrs. I was so thankful to have found Melanie’s blog just to give some perspective and humor to what I was also experiencing in my life. Several years ago I started listening to podcasts and came across y’all’s! As I started listening to it I had deja vu of hearing your voices previously in my life. And I couldn’t believe that you were the same two women I listened to on my PC with my headphones plugged in when my daughter was little all those years ago! I am so thankful to have found your podcast again. It has helped me laugh when life has been difficult. You ladies have given me encouraging words to share with my daughters but most importantly, I now have the ability to impress my husband with random football knowledge. He is so impressed sometimes how much I know about SEC football! ????
Congratulations on 15 years and 300 podcasts! I can’t wait to see what you ladies talk about next. Gig ’em Aggies!
This podcast is a weekly highlight in my life. Melanie and Sophie feel like friends that I have known forever thanks to all the episodes I have listened to on Big Boo and on their Patreon. I finally had to set limits on all the things I was buying after hearing them share. They are fun down to earth, and real!
Congratulations on 300! You make my Thursday mornings!
CHEERS to 300!!! I love listening to you ladies so much! You make me laugh, and I am here for it every week! Kadoos to you!!!

Happy Happy 300th Episode! You & Melanie don’t know how much joy you bring to all of us!!

Love, love your podcast! Each episode makes me laugh and sometimes tear up!! Love hearing all the topics you all discuss and actually surprise my husband with random SEC knowledge I learn from y’all! The way y’all inspire others to mentor and be mentored is a blessing. Also, I have loved both Melanie and your books and devotionals. So excited for what’s to come with your podcast and love that it is sometimes unplanned and just regular conversation. That’s the best!

Can’t get enough of the podcast! I don’t care a thing about college football, but somehow can listen to the two of you talk about it and ENJOY it! My husband is always surprised when I thrown out my random sports knowledge I learn from the two of you. Thanks for sharing your lives with us!
Always love listening to this podcast! Can’t remember how I found out but so glad I did!
Congratulations on 300 episodes and 15 years! Kadoos to you! Thank you for being a source of comfort and a happy escape these last few years. I only wish I had found you 15 years ago.
