We recorded later than usual this week because I've been out of town, and we were moving through a series of New Year-adjacent recaps (the latest with the Shankles, State's bowl game, the playoff games, a few I See Yous) when Melanie saw some breaking news about A&M's new offensive coordinator. To paraphrase Ross Gellar, it was a bit of a pivot because Melanie needed to do some serious real-time processing. As you will hear.



No worries, however. Melanie rallies to share her Five Favorites, and in the most exciting development ever, I share a new pot roast recipe I hope to try. 



The year is full of possibilities. :-) 



Enjoy, y'all!
