This week Melanie and I talk about how we're navigating the lull between college football and college basketball season, and we discuss P's newfound knowledge about face contouring and the Royal Family. Life comes at you fast.  I share about the writing progress I made over the weekend (will wonders never cease), Melanie has an update on her reading progress, and we also discuss some spring fashion trends that are on the way. Plus, it's Mel's turn for Five Favorites.  Hope y'all enjoy!  - Join Us on Patreon  - Our Amazon Shop Show Notes: - A&M vs. South Carolina in MBB - Melanie's aesthetician, Niva - face contouring - Spare by Prince Harry - Hello, Molly by Molly Shannon - Helen in Birmingham - parachute pants that are tempting - shirt dress that's a YES PLEASE - Banana Republic silk shirt dress - long shorts that are a no - The Eyes of Tammy Faye - Jennifer Coolidge's Golden Globes acceptance speech (there is a White Lotus spoiler in her speech - just FYI if you haven't watched season two yet) - Mary Katherine Gallagher sketches from SNL - Helen Madden, Licensed Joyoligist sketches from SNL - PHYLIAN Sonic Electric Toothbrush - Ascot & Hart graphic pullover sweatshirt (and matching joggers) - Dr. Dennis Gross Blemish Solutions Clarifying Mask - Aerie Lowrise Pintuck Skater Pants - Wrangler men's outdoor flex waist cargo pants Sponsors: - Thrive Market (use this link for 30% off your first order plus a $60 free gift) - Third Love (use this link for 20% off your first order) - ZocDoc (use this link to download their app)
