    On this week's episode Melanie and I talk about the fact that Caroline is now home from her long European journey, I sampled the most delicious homemade pies, and why we shouldn't underestimate Gen Z's persistence in selecting the perfect nail polish colors. It's been an eventful week.

    We also have an unplanned - but lively! - discussion about AI, and it's my turn for Five Favorites.

    This week Melanie and I have lots of Super Regional developments to discuss, along with what I am referring to as Mississippi State's First Official Baseball Pageant as we welcomed our new baseball head coach Brian O'Connor. We also talk about a new Birmingham restaurant favorite and Melanie's awareness of her challenges with European geography.

    On top of all that, I get in my feelings a little bit about Pentecost Sunday, and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.

    Hope you enjoy!

    As you might expect on this episode, Melanie and I have a lot to say about this past weekend's college baseball regionals (if you're not aware, there were some incredible underdog stories in the field of 64). We also talk about State's baseball coach news (very exciting!) before we consider all the things we don't know or understand about this current generation of toddlers.

    On top of that, Melanie shares Perry's new YouTube discovery, and it's my turn for Five Favorites.
