Summary

On this episode I sound like I'm recording inside a tunnel, and Melanie is clearly surrounded by a great deal of yard work, but neither of those things stops us from sharing our feelings about rivalry weekend (WOMP WOMP), Lane Kiffin (ENOUGH ALREADY), Thanksgiving festivities, parking lot etiquette, and (in Melanie's case), Stranger Things.

There's also some exciting upcoming live show news, and it's Melanie's turn for Five Favorites.

Thanks for listening, y'all!
