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!

You two ladies have been cracking me up for years now! I love your love for all college sports and the fact that a little bit of my Texas accent comes back to this Pacific NW transplant every time I listen. :) (P.S. Don’t tell Melanie, but I’m a Longhorn.)
I need at least 15 more years of the BigBoo Cast!!
Congrats on episode 300! I love listening to y’all every Wednesday…feels like catching up with friends. I sent my daughter to college last weekend so I appreciated all the advice on dorm essentials and leaving your child to start their new adventure. Thanks for all the smiles!
