About this episode

Melanie and Sophie discuss a trip to Athens, Mississippi State baseball, and various life updates.

This week Melanie and I discuss my trip to Athens, Georgia (it was the best of times, it was the worst of times) and the end of Mississippi State's 2026 baseball season. We also cover some related topics: how we feel about baseball fields that lack dirt and grass, my appeal to the University of Georgia to install some cup holders, my friend Tracey's idea for a new cheer for our Bulldogs, and the fact that I'm in a fight with the NCAA. On top of all that, Melanie loops us in on life in San Antonio, and it's her turn for Five Favorites. Hope you enjoy!
