Big Boo Cast: Episode 307

October 12, 2022 ·

This week Sophie and I find ourselves on opposite ends of football fortune, so you’re going to hear a lot of sympathizing, a lot of commiserating, and a better than average amount of celebrating. Plus, as you might expect, we offer our perhaps misguided but nonetheless enthusiastic analysis of the last play of the A&M / Alabama game. WE HAVE SOME THOUGHTS.

There’s also a good bit of discussion about Sophie’s hair, a recap of Alex’s time home during fall break, and it’s my turn for Five Favorites.

Enjoy, everybody!

    Please check out how American forests are managed for the production of paper, lumber and other products. For every tree that is harvested, at least 2 (and usually 3-5) are replanted and sustainable practices are employed. I love your podcasts but resent you advertising bamboo products by criticizing forest products.

Who is Melanie?

Melanie ShankleMy name is Melanie and, in some strange twist of fate, I’m also known as Big Mama because I started this blog in July of 2006 when my daughter, Caroline, was not quite three years old and I was in the process of convincing her that BIG girls use the potty and BIG girls don’t have pacifiers, thus she thought BIG was the highest compliment in the land and began referring to me as BIG MAMA.Read More
