Summary

As has been the case all season, college football has given us plenty to talk about this week (OKAY AGGIES), along with the fact that Melanie and I both got to spend some time at our alma maters. As usual, we break down Side Eyes and I See Yous - and I share why I am teaching myself to focus on Other Hobbies and Pursuits for the rest of the winter. 

We also discuss what we're listening to and watching, and it's my turn for Five Favorites. 

Hope you enjoy!
