    The Big Boo Cast, Episode 406

    This week Melanie processes her A&M / Notre Dame feelings (in addition to her game-time dehydration issues), and I'm ticked that my beloved Bulldogs are not, in my opinion, receiving the recognition that a lifetime member of the Southeastern Conference should receive. Mostly, though, we're just delighted that college football is all the way back - and we continue to be curious about how Nick Saban is going to handle the whole Pat McAfee / GameDay situation. We also celebrate the return of my missing bracelets (it's a long story), and it's my turn for Five Favorites.

    It's an Olympics-palooza this week as Melanie and I talk about cheering for sports we already love as well as sports where we're still in a learning curve but no less enthusiastic. 'Tis the season for "U-S-A!," marveling at the French scenery, and scrutinizing the Olympic parents' heart rate monitors. We're here for every bit of it.  We also break down my family's weekend visit with Alex's roommate, and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.  Enjoy, everybody! - Join Us on Patreon - Our Amazon Shop Show Notes: - Jason Kelce's beret and dryfit red, white, and blue - Joni Taylor - Simone Biles' double pike vault - Snoop Dogg at the Olympics - Léon Marchand - Taryn Delanie Smith on IG - Suni Lee's story - Ilona Maher on TikTok - Ilona Maher on her BMI  - Reece's Medals - our SEC Media Days Patreon episode with Cole Cubelic - Cole's podcast, The Cube Show - Cole on Instagram - Sophie's newsletter - Sophie's book events for A Fine Sight to See - Southern Living's Cheese Slaw - Baleaf pleated tennis skirt - Hurricane classic 20-inch box fan - OneSkin topical face supplement - AE pool-to-party linen trousers - Allie+Bess gameday collection (20% off with code MELANIE20) - Melanie's guide to Patreon - full-o-helpful-hints Sponsors: - AG1 - use this link for a free one year's supply of vitamin D3 and K2 + 5 free travel packs - Mint Mobile - use this link to check out their service - Lume - use code BIGBOO for 15% off your first purhase - OSEA - use code BIGBOO for 10% off
