Big Mama

This is the maybe the closest Sophie and I have ever cut it in terms of getting an episode out on time, but travel has interfered with our recording schedule this week. The good news, though, is that we had a lot of catching up to do, and recording an episode is a fine way to do that. We cover a lot of ground - Sophie's trip to NYC, the kids getting home for Christmas, and our continued deep Read More

I'm not sure how it happened but it is now December. So here's your reminder that you'll want to finish your Christmas shopping in the next 25 days or you'll be too late. I tried to find some things this week that could make good Christmas gifts or be things you might like for yourself. Here are the things I found: 1. efan oversized sweatshirt I love an oversized sweatshirt. It's just Read More

The Aggies and the Bulldogs have new head football coaches, so this week Sophie and I talk through some of the drama (on the A&M side, especially) surrounding the hiring process and how said drama led to some amusing social media moments. And of course we discuss the Iron Bowl and that last touchdown and how we relate on so many levels to the Auburn heartache. There's also a quick look back Read More

I hope you all had a nice Thanksgiving. I am currently Christmas shopping and trying to keep up with all the sales going on. I have also taken a vow to never eat again. Here are some great things I found that might help with your Christmas shopping. Or that you might like to buy for yourself. You can always wrap it and put it under the tree. 1. pilcro relaxed plaid button-down Read More

This week Sophie and I discuss what we won't be cooking for Thanksgiving (here's a hint: TURKEY), as well as the latest with our respective football programs and their coaching searches. We also break down Sophie's recent experiences at a couple of concerts, and I share about some of her post-live show introverting. There's some delightful bonus content at the end of the episode (an excerpt Read More

So after the live show last week, I went to the Aggie football game. I had no idea it would be our last game with Jimbo Fisher as our head coach. And so most of my week has been spent following message boards and googling the names of various candidates who are getting mentioned. In other words, I barely had time to find anything for Fashion Friday. Yet, I persevered. Here are some cute Read More

Sophie and I spent the end of the last week in Bryan / College Station for The Big Boo Bowl (and then the actual A&M / State football game), so between our live show, all our activities, and then - THEN - BOTH OF OUR HEAD COACHES GETTING FIRED IN A 24-HOUR PERIOD - we have more to talk about on this episode than we can possibly cover. We do our best, but there is going to be a follow-up Read More

Sophie and I are hosting our very first Big Boo Live show this Thursday night, which was actually last night by the time you're reading this. But, thanks to the magic of the internet, I'm writing this post on Tuesday night because there is no way I'll have time to do it later this week. Anyway, here are some cute things I found this week. I kind of focused on things that might be fun to wear Read More

This week I share one of the more fascinating theories to date about the Aggies' struggles on the football field (I believe we would both give this theory a giant side-eye), and I tell y'all about my keen deer-counting skills this past weekend. Sophie recaps another trip to Mississippi as well as a full-to-the-brim weekend. Also, we continue our Gift Guide this week, and it's my turn for Five Read More
