- 0:03What does the nanny do? OK, so we're done.
- 0:08Goodbye. You.
- 0:10Shut it off do. Not twist my words.
- 0:14Do not make me a victim, sweetie.
- 0:17Just look at the mountain. That's what you shot that day.
- 0:22You've been knife in the kidneys
- 0:29sacrifices that I made to love you.
- 0:35Welcome back everybody to this spooky special episode of My
- 0:43Sister Wives Podcast Season 6 Episode 18 Celebration
- 0:49Countdown. For those of you who have
- 0:53forgotten already, we left off with the dresses being made from
- 1:03will she, won't she? Will there be dresses?
- 1:07Will they be stark naked? We still don't know, and now the
- 1:17the ceremony. Nothing can go wrong, right?
- 1:20Nothing can go wrong. Absolutely not on a second part
- 1:24of a Halloween special, which of course it's not a Halloween
- 1:29spooky and lame. So welcome back everybody.
- 1:32This is five days before the commitment celebration and the
- 1:42family coming together to rehearse by telling us we're
- 1:45going to go through the different steps so that we are
- 1:53and friendly sort of way. Because this presentation is all
- 2:01commitment celebration. Now if you're thinking holy
- 2:03shit, Christmas got that quote wrong, you would be wrong.
- 2:07This is insane that we are look organized are the literal words
- 2:11that came out of Robyn's mouth. She also talks about how this
- 2:16presentation they wanted to come across as peaceful and friendly.
- 2:22on. No, first of all, holy fucking
- 2:24word salad Batman. Right.
- 2:25Like what is even going on here?
- 2:28Peaceful and friendly. I'm imagining things from when I
- 2:35from another perspective. You're trying to get your kids
- 2:41practice and I'm imagining words you would use or something along
- 2:50something peaceful and friendly as a family.
- 2:55What is the alternative to peaceful, angry, violent,
- 2:59insane, and then friendly? What's the opposite of that?
- 3:03Like enemies? Combatants.
- 3:04Like these word choices? It is Robyn so let's take it
- 3:08with a grain of salt, but I don't even get why peaceful and
- 3:12friendly are words you would use to describe what your family
- 3:18other family members. It's bizarre.
- 3:20It's got the keep sweet vibes. The wording is odd.
- 3:25They use strange words frequently when describing
- 3:29things that no one else would describe something as that
- 3:34they've done it with the Keep suite or what Do they tell
- 3:40Christine to be cheery? Have a cheery disposition?
- 3:44Things that other people just don't say often?
- 3:48So yeah, they're pointed words. They're very odd.
- 3:53I thought that she needed to go to hospital, that she'd perhaps
- 3:57had a brain aneurysm and needed to go to hospital.
- 4:02To emergency, emergency. Oh, I'm so sorry.
- 4:06We don't need to go to hospital. We need to take her to
- 4:10emergency. She's hit her head.
- 4:13Oh gosh, It's like Rob. Yeah, Rob.
- 4:16Oh God, Robyn. Oh God, Robyn.
- 4:18It's weird trying to even read what she says because it's so
- 4:23fucked up that you've trip over your own words because it's just
- 4:28Sometimes I write it down like you did here because it's so
- 4:32bizarre and people need to hear it, and other times I just don't
- 4:38Yeah, because this is what the
- 4:42I'm going to end up in emergency.
- 4:44Yes. You know, the number of times
- 4:47that I reround that sound bite
- 4:51I was like closed captioning on listening over and over going,
- 4:56is this really what she said? This one was special.
- 4:59This one, she gave it to us for our Halloween special.
- 5:02Well, I'm proud of you for going
- 5:06her attempting to because I, I got lost.
- 5:10I got lost. I don't understand why they put
- 5:13her in charge. We get a lot of other disjointed
- 5:17sentences from her because she's
- 5:21this rehearsal. Yeah, she's allowed to speak.
- 5:23Nobody knows why. Quite a bit.
- 5:25It's just something, it's really
- 5:29It's frightening. Someone allowed her to speak for
- 5:33too long and she had a brain aneurysm.
- 5:35She couldn't handle it. So while they're in the
- 5:37backyard, Kody's telling the family that they'll need to
- 5:39start pictures at 12:00. And that is pictures.
- 5:44Friendly reminder for everyone
- 5:48attitudes. Good.
- 5:51I need everybody to be happy. These are going to be the best
- 5:56pictures we hope to ever have had in our whole family's lives
- 6:00together. OK, No pressure at all.
- 6:03Like these are going to be the
- 6:07and he's borderline hollering at
- 6:10And we just started, so buckle
- 6:13Yeah, he's really trying to stress how important these
- 6:16photos are going to be. You have a large family of tons
- 6:21of kids. Why put that pressure on that
- 6:24day? Get pictures, of course, during
- 6:26the ceremony, get a few, but why
- 6:31photo day where that is what it's about when you have a
- 6:35family this big? You've wrangled my two kids for
- 6:39photos before. It's not easy with even 2.
- 6:44I don't understand why put so much pressure on this one day
- 6:48and then you're adding in a whole photo session on top of it
- 6:52like a wedding. What you're saying does make
- 6:55sense, and it actually didn't cross my mind to go, why are
- 6:58they even trying to cram this in?
- 7:01Part of me thinks it might be a production angle, right?
- 7:04So the story producer on location is working with them to
- 7:06make sure, let's make sure we have the footage that we need
- 7:09to, you know, get this really happening.
- 7:11But the thing that I don't get
- 7:14reviewed at the first half of this episode is a lot of things.
- 7:17I mean, there's so many things
- 7:20The day is obviously chaotic when we wrap this episode.
- 7:23The list is still very extensive.
- 7:25So it's just bizarre that you would even try to do this just
- 7:29in any fashion. It's so weird.
- 7:32It's because they're cheap. They're renting suits for the
- 7:34boys that day. They have to return them the
- 7:36next day. They're just cheap and they're
- 7:38going to try to get it all in at
- 7:41They're going to try to do everything that they can.
- 7:43And I'm not saying you don't take a family photo.
- 7:45Everybody takes family photos the day of a wedding.
- 7:48I get that. But with this large of a family
- 7:52and knowing that there's going
- 7:55kids just to even stand still during the ceremony, You don't
- 7:58need to force them to stand still for a whole family photo
- 8:02shoot and put this much pressure
- 8:04Shit's going to hit the fan. Even when they reference at
- 8:08another point that Kody doesn't have four different families,
- 8:11he has one family. Well, when they take their
- 8:14photos, it's like 4 families and
- 8:17of them together. It is four or five times the
- 8:20magnitude of a normal family photo session.
- 8:22So these people are bananas. Really, they are.
- 8:26Anyone who's taken family photos
- 8:29large family photo session knows that this is doomed.
- 8:34I'm just imagining this going horribly, horribly wrong, and we
- 8:40find out a little bit in the next preview that I'm not wrong.
- 8:43You are not wrong. You are not wrong.
- 8:45I rarely ever have. Now, honey, this is also where
- 8:48they talk about if Kody will keep his beard for the pictures.
- 8:53And I at this point, you know,
- 8:56didn't really care at all what's
- 9:01So everybody, he starts voting
- 9:05beard or not because these photos are going to be so
- 9:08important. Kody is making it sound like
- 9:10they're not going to have family
- 9:14something. So of course the facial hair is
- 9:16going to come into question. He has a full beard right now
- 9:21during the filming of the rehearsal.
- 9:24So they're all trying to tell him what they think he should do
- 9:32off. It's patchy as fuck.
- 9:34It's not a full grown beard. On the sides.
- 9:37You can tell where he's kept his
- 9:42trimmed it to match the rest of the facial hair.
- 9:46So instead of trimming the flavor saver down to the length
- 9:50of the shorter part that's been growing in, it's like puffy and
- 9:55large and then short. So no, don't keep that.
- 9:59You look like a fool. Yeah, and he gets defensive.
- 10:04He says it's my face. I'll decide what to do with it.
- 10:08I'll decide that day. How about that?
- 10:12And he does his Kody thing where
- 10:15and says I'll decide that day.
- 10:18Cut yourself shaving the day of these very important photos
- 10:21because you decided to stick your feet in the mud and shave
- 10:24that day. Whatever this guy.
- 10:26Yeah, I know. And it's like, didn't he know
- 10:29years in the future we would be recording our Halloween themed
- 10:32episode during this time and he might have a little candy corn
- 10:35in there. He might have, you know, a
- 10:36little bit of chocolate left in that flavor saver.
- 10:39Certainly no taste from Robyn.
- 10:42Robyn the vanilla Tootsie Roll.
- 10:44Oh. God yes, Robyn's the one that
- 10:46you give to your siblings because you're like, I don't
- 10:48fucking care, I don't want this candy.
- 10:49The whole family migrates to the front of Robyn's house because
- 10:56backyard. So everyone's all lined up ready
- 11:00non ceremony ceremonial entrance into Robyn's newly
- 11:03landscaped backyard. They all enter and the kids are
- 11:06lining up under a pergola in a straight line.
- 11:08The parents talk about how challenging it is to keep the
- 11:12kids paying attention in a scenario like this.
- 11:15Over this footage, there's voice overs talking about, you know,
- 11:23like torment each other and Janelle starts to lose her cool.
- 11:29I want to talk about this pergola.
- 11:31It is like what you would see in
- 11:34Like the government paid $300,000 for it.
- 11:37It is massive. Honestly, if I was one of the
- 11:40other sister wives, I would be
- 11:43I would be like, you have this
- 11:46entire yard is now full of grass, You have this beautiful
- 11:49landscaping, all these tiny little trees.
- 11:51They're going to plant a literal
- 11:54Her backyard looks like they spent money on this fucking yard
- 11:58and I would have been pissed. I'm starting to see why they
- 12:01chose to do it in the backyard
- 12:04a venue. Because Robyn wanted it spent on
- 12:06her backyard. So instead of spending the money
- 12:09on the venue, why not spend it
- 12:14pretend and use it as a front for Oh yeah because of the
- 12:19ceremony. It's another way for her to get
- 12:22something she wants done. And if I remember correctly,
- 12:24when they were moving into the
- 12:27beforehand, she has that giant
- 12:31because she wanted to have a big
- 12:33gather. During this episode, I didn't
- 12:35notice if there was anything done with that space.
- 12:38I don't recall footage of that particular blueprint or that
- 12:41area of the yard. But I'm just going, wow, this
- 12:45bitch really gets I, I just, I don't know.
- 12:49I bet Meri is fuming. Yeah, the pergola isn't even
- 12:54just one of those prefab ones that are still pretty expensive
- 12:59from somewhere, it's handcrafted.
- 13:01Yeah, handcrafted and huge. I want to say 30 feet from side
- 13:06to side without supporting beams in the middle.
- 13:09Like we're talking literally what a municipality would pay a
- 13:13contractor to go in and custom build for public gatherings in
- 13:19And I was looking at it, I'm going like, is it a pergola?
- 13:22And it is a pergola because on top of it there's that WAVY
- 13:26plastic shit that you put above things so that it provides shade
- 13:33And it is definitely A at the time even like a $10,000 pergola
- 13:46I think you're on to something there.
- 13:49So back to Janelle losing her cool because this, this was a
- 13:53beautiful moment. The boys are, you know, they're
- 13:56picking on each other. They're doing whatever they're
- 13:59a scene and people are trying to get in line.
- 14:01The adults are trying to start. You know, we're in the
- 14:04rehearsal. We're in the rehearsal and
- 14:06they're picking on each other. And Janelle goes, you boys are
- 14:13This is ridiculous, knock it off.
- 14:16And I was like Oh my God. We finally get Janelle emoting
- 14:22We've seen her yell pretty good at the kids a few times I think,
- 14:29time yelling at the kids, but I feel like this may be the most
- 14:36boys had that fight, she kind of, you know, she reprimands
- 14:39them, but I just was like, holy fucking shit, she is pissed.
- 14:43Like she is upset now. I shouldn't say upset.
- 14:46Everyone feels a bit on edge. It's like everyone knows what's
- 14:50going to happen and it's totally that family thing where
- 14:53everyone's patience is already worn out and they haven't even
- 14:58Sure. You can tell that they're all
- 15:00stressed, and I think that they even say at one point that it's
- 15:04really hot outside. Oh, God.
- 15:06So I think that probably has a lot to do with it, too.
- 15:09She seems like someone that's very affected by heat, so I can
- 15:12picture her just wanting to get this over with as quickly as
- 15:15fucking possible and get back in her air conditioned home.
- 15:19Yeah, I really think that it was driven by the heat for her.
- 15:24They are in Vegas too, and this is always a thing.
- 15:26Like it's hot, it is hot. And I do think you're right.
- 15:29I think Janelle likes her air conditioning.
- 15:31Some people get nuts when they get hot, and I can tell by the
- 15:40Yeah. The next thing they're going to
- 15:43rehearse is reading the mission statement and having everyone
- 15:45sign the copies and Maddie chimes in.
- 15:48We have not heard from Maddie for a hot second.
- 15:50I always like when Maddie comes back because I'm going, oh,
- 15:53Maddie, that's right, you're part of this family.
- 15:55She gets out of several episodes.
- 15:57I think it's because of her age and her activities.
- 15:59I'm sure it's kind of like Hunter.
- 16:01Like we don't get Maddie and Hunter every episode.
- 16:03We do get more Aspen and more Leon, but that's going to change
- 16:09Thank God. And Maddie pipes up and asks
- 16:11what if we don't agree with our mission statement?
- 16:14I love, I love it so much. Such a teenager thing to do.
- 16:22Just question to question. Yes, for the sake of
- 16:26questioning. And now I think we need to have
- 16:29a little bit of a non dramatic, dramatic reading of what is said
- 16:39forth here honey, OK? Immediately after Maddie asks
- 16:42this question about not agreeing with the mission statement, Kody
- 16:48Really, Maddie? And Kody says if you don't agree
- 16:54Anybody who disagrees with this mission statement, there's a
- 16:58pause. Robyn cuts in, then they better
- 17:01move out. And after a brief pause, Kody
- 17:05says hates America. It's like, Oh my God, this just
- 17:10quickly turns into insanity. Insanity.
- 17:12There is a teenager making a smart ass comment.
- 17:16We all know this. And they're responding with
- 17:19better move up, Robyn, better move out.
- 17:21And Kody says hates America. Yeah, now Kody's definitely
- 17:26being sarcastic, but Robyn, I don't know.
- 17:30Because then she says this is our life, this is our life.
- 17:37Like lady, take a chill Bill, calm down and.
- 17:44On top of. That, yeah.
- 17:47I love when Robyn has any moments on the show, like the
- 17:50one when she was like, this is not the America I learned about.
- 17:57She wears these ball caps. It's like her she's either has
- 18:00her business casual hair, it's
- 18:03And she looks like she's, you know, running a board meeting at
- 18:06my sister wife's closet headquarter or she's wearing
- 18:09like a ball cap and looks like
- 18:11It's like, bitch, what are you
- 18:12And so whenever there's these candid moments where she's
- 18:15losing it emotionally, yelling
- 18:18ball cap and it just makes her
- 18:21Like it's like, bitch, Oh my God, what are you doing?
- 18:24Yeah, I'm fairly certain she was
- 18:26What would you say to your kids?
- 18:28That they better move out? You're moving out if you don't
- 18:38obviously smart ass teenage comet.
- 18:40I just, and it seemed to come out of nowhere.
- 18:42It was just like girl, like obviously everyone's a little on
- 18:48She was very offended that anyone would even question it
- 18:51because they've been working their asses off on this since
- 18:54they met the Dargers, so how dare you?
- 18:57Oh. The Dargers, Robyn and Kody have
- 19:10and it's like Oh my God. All of this over a sarcastic
- 19:15stoned teenager response every time.
- 19:17Also when they show Maddie unless she's on the couch and
- 19:19even sometimes when she's on the couch ever since you mentioned
- 19:24She looks high. She looks stoned, yeah.
- 19:27Is she OK? Sometimes people just look like
- 19:29that. But literally it also sounds
- 19:31like a Stoner moment. Like what are we going to do if
- 19:33we don't agree with the missions?
- 19:34That's like, it's just, it's ridiculous.
- 19:37One of those things that you say and then regret saying, 'cause
- 19:47Yeah, can't be stoned. You'd think you'd know better by
- 19:53Browns, Oh my gosh, stoned around the Browns.
- 19:55What an experience. Celestial Kingdom?
- 19:58Like what? There.
- 20:01I want to go there man. We do get the grown-ups on the
- 20:10should have a choice. They shouldn't have a choice in
- 20:13this, especially not in front of a bunch of other people.
- 20:16And Janelle says that she agrees with Robyn.
- 20:19She agrees with free speech and free choices, but she actually
- 20:26this moment on this matter. Even if it's only for
- 20:30appearance, they should just sign it.
- 20:32And it's funny because between Robyn saying this and Janelle
- 20:35agreeing, Kody has a little bit of a tangent.
- 20:38Have a rebuttal about some overinflated freedom alignment.
- 20:40Because you know how Kody is?
- 20:42He's got to be like, oh God, freedom, freedom, choice,
- 20:44choice. And sometimes we agree and other
- 20:47times it's like this is all over.
- 20:49Signing fake canvases or whatever.
- 20:52They fucking get made their name
- 20:54this is just ridiculous. It is kind of funny to see
- 20:58Janelle agreeing with Robyn because we don't see that very
- 21:00often. And it was interesting to hear
- 21:01from Janelle. Like even if it's just for
- 21:03appearance sake and I agree with
- 21:05me an option. They'd be like, you're going to
- 21:07sign this shit. So he says that people associate
- 21:10their religion with coercion, so
- 21:14anything. So that's kind of his reasoning
- 21:18behind it. People already think that we
- 21:19coerce our kids into doing stuff
- 21:24children into, you know, got types of things like let's not
- 21:31make them sign anything because we don't even want to course
- 21:33our kids to do that. So I, I kind of see where he's
- 21:38coming from there. You know, he wants it to be very
- 21:40well known that he would never
- 21:43don't want to do. And he's not wrong there.
- 21:47I think that the whole thing was
- 21:50We even get the older kids on a couch moment.
- 21:53The other kids are kind of giving her shit.
- 21:55Why would you even say that? And Maddie says that she's going
- 21:59to sign it. She just likes pushing Robyn's
- 22:01buttons. Yeah.
- 22:03So this whole thing, this whole thing is just Maddie fucking
- 22:08with Robyn. I love it.
- 22:09Meanwhile, Kody's worried about people thinking they're
- 22:12coercing their children into horrible things because of
- 22:15their religion. Now it's a whole whole thing
- 22:19that didn't need to happen, all because of Maddie being a smart
- 22:21ass. And I feel like maybe coercion
- 22:24was one of Robyn's last names that she got removed during her
- 22:26credit work. I'm not sure.
- 22:27I don't, you know, I, my memory,
- 22:30stoned all the time. So I, my memory is a little
- 22:32hazy. And Hunter also chimes in at
- 22:36this, you know, teenager couch
- 22:38And he says the family mission
- 22:41the parents than to the kids. Honestly, I just have to say it
- 22:44because I always love hearing from Hunter.
- 22:46This is a Hunter Stand podcast.
- 22:47And I was like, oh, Hunter's here.
- 22:49It's kind of like Maddie. I got a little whiplash.
- 22:52Yes. And Aspen says that she agrees
- 22:57this whole thing than necessary. And it's like, here is our voice
- 23:05this entire family, along with Logan, is Aspen.
- 23:08Leave it to Aspen. I feel like Aspen and Logan are
- 23:12the parents that the other children deserved.
- 23:15Yes, and it just becomes more and more apparent as it goes on.
- 23:22them, so I guess that they got
- 23:25But All in all, they just really
- 23:30should have had. Unfortunately, the youngest ones
- 23:33got to miss out on that, so, you
- 23:36middle kids that yeah. Oh God.
- 23:39That really benefited, yeah, probably.
- 23:43Then everyone starts planning out the steps to reading the
- 23:45mission statement and signing it.
- 23:47Then Kody tells us they're planning on giving all of the
- 23:51children a piece of jewelry. Jewelry.
- 23:57What? Is that Canon?
- 24:02And D starts playing and everyone's going to get jewelry.
- 24:05And I was stunned, stunned. I was shocked that the Brown
- 24:09family would give everyone a piece of jewelry.
- 24:11It just, I thought, wow, I stunned, see these people, but
- 24:15they're fucking jewelry. So it's going to be a family
- 24:18Crest of sorts. They describe it as a small
- 24:22fortune, probably another kids
- 24:26in jewelry costs, especially with how expensive this jewelry
- 24:31is that they make. Oh my God.
- 24:36We got a pergola, we got jewelry.
- 24:39We could have had an entire kids
- 24:43the cost of this channel. Oh my gosh, You know, it's funny
- 24:45because yes. And then the photographer and
- 24:47then the list we're going to get
- 24:49what's still left to do the activities we see still
- 24:53happening in the second-half of this episode.
- 24:55There is money being spent on this.
- 24:58Like literal money. Now I'm even regretting that I
- 25:01said the party planner needed more than 45 days for this
- 25:04because I'm thinking about the
- 25:05And if you're thinking about an event planner and looking at
- 25:08that kind of budget, you're probably like, well, the math is
- 25:10that this would probably take more like 3 months at least or
- 25:13something. So I I don't even know.
- 25:15They just got out of paying the event planner for more months
- 25:18and got one at the very end and had her do a bunch of work in a
- 25:22short time. And with the jewelry
- 25:24whatnotness, usher's in this moment of the parents talking
- 25:28about being an out polygamous family and its significance and
- 25:31importance and how wearing the
- 25:36cheap, excuse me, expensive, tacky jewelry is huge for plural
- 25:43families. And Christine even jokes about
- 25:45polygamy pride. So I guess it's a signifier that
- 25:49they're all one big creepy family and they've got to all
- 25:52wear the same jewelry. You hit the nail on the head
- 25:54there. It's creepy.
- 25:56It's like you're marrying your
- 25:59ceremony and then you're giving them all jewelry to wear.
- 26:02It's like creepy as fuck to me
- 26:06We find out that they're also going to be doing a sand
- 26:09ceremony with just the moms. So not only are we exchanging
- 26:15jewelry, we're doing a sand ceremony, which they do at
- 26:19weddings a lot, and it's just wedding shit on top of wedding
- 26:24shit. Every single corny ass wedding
- 26:27trope possible. They're reading vows essentially
- 26:30with this statement. They're exchanging jewelry,
- 26:34they're signing the document, they're doing a sand ceremony.
- 26:38But then wait, they're going to plant a tree too.
- 26:43They're doing every trope under the sun here of a wedding, but
- 26:48they don't want it to be wedding
- 26:50Let's get our kids in on this.
- 26:52and give them jewelry too. And all of the other things, the
- 26:56photos, the the food, the things
- 26:59do to the backyard to make an event ready.
- 27:01Not only just the landscaping shit, but we find out later too.
- 27:04There's all of the rental equipment and all of the things,
- 27:06the tables, the chairs. This is for all intents and
- 27:09purposes, a wedding. It's just no one's getting
- 27:12fucking married. For the fact that they keep
- 27:14saying repeatedly they wanted as
- 27:18possible. You couldn't get closer to it.
- 27:21You're doing it. You're doing a fucking wedding.
- 27:24Would you just admit it? Yeah, just admit it.
- 27:26Just admit it. Come clean, Robyn.
- 27:28Admit something for once in your
- 27:31OK? Now brace yourself everyone.
- 27:33I'm going to feel some feels here in a positive way about
- 27:37Leon. Leon of all people, Leon's on
- 27:42the couch with the teens and shares something that I think is
- 27:45great. I understand loving your family
- 27:48and wanting to show people how
- 27:52no one has parties to say here, look at my family.
- 27:57Look at how much we love each other.
- 27:59Like everyone knows we love each
- 28:02I don't know. It's their choice.
- 28:04And I'm like, Oh my God, this is
- 28:07Throws a party to say we love each other.
- 28:09It's just absurd. And Leon's understanding and,
- 28:14you know, sarcastic delivery of this is just on point.
- 28:17And I, you know, we don't sing
- 28:20show, but I would be saying the same thing, like, why are we
- 28:22doing it like this? Why is this happening?
- 28:24Who else is throwing parties saying we love each other?
- 28:27I mean, it's just weird. It reeks of a cover up.
- 28:30It reeks of the couple that posts too much on Instagram, not
- 28:35how much they love each other.
- 28:39too much. I don't even know.
- 28:40You guys are overdoing it. You're overcompensating.
- 28:44Totally, totally. And Leon, this could have kept
- 28:47you going to Westminster longer than you do.
- 28:50I think if they wouldn't have done this, maybe you should have
- 28:54protested a little more. Maybe you would have been a
- 28:57doctor. I don't know.
- 29:01Leon's just seeing dollar signs,
- 29:05back to the conversation where
- 29:07have any money for you. We don't think that we can send
- 29:11you to school there. I don't know.
- 29:13You're going to have to work a
- 29:18year at least. I don't know how you're going to
- 29:20do that, but you better figure
- 29:22Out and we're going to send you off with some jewelry that.
- 29:27That was costs you the same amount as the car we just bought
- 29:32you. Oh, ridiculous.
- 29:34And the jewelry is like the size
- 29:37front of your car, too, Lee. Absolutely, you can use it for a
- 29:40replacement part for your vehicle.
- 29:42Then we get more footage of the adults trying to make
- 29:45decisions, more footage of the kids not listening, more
- 29:48footage of the adults escalating their voices to get everyone
- 29:52to care. Well let me rephrase that to get
- 29:58of a large family trying to do this shit with parents that
- 30:01can't even coordinate themselves.
- 30:02We see this family constantly. They can't start or finish
- 30:06anything. It's insane.
- 30:07I I know I've said insane so many times it's just mind
- 30:11boggling. Kody points at one point to
- 30:12Robyn and he's yelling to the kids.
- 30:14Listen to Robyn and he has a massive pit stain.
- 30:19He's shaking his finger and pointing at everyone to look and
- 30:26Yeah, not as bad as when he climbed those steps at
- 30:30Chichanita and his butt was sweating that.
- 30:33Swamp ass was out of control. Oh no.
- 30:37Yeah. And he's wearing like this light
- 30:43Uh huh. And Kody, you know, he's got a
- 30:57Do not smart off to me because I haven't got the patience for it.
- 31:04Kody's losing it. Kody's losing it.
- 31:07They splice in a moment from Aspen where she says the parents
- 31:11are getting irritated by the kids and not behaving, and they
- 31:15may have said some things they
- 31:18She smiles and tilts her end to the side.
- 31:20And it's so good. Like Aspen is so kosher.
- 31:23She's always doing the right thing.
- 31:25And then the camera goes back to
- 31:28correct any of you during that
- 31:32You'll not be able to dance with
- 31:34You'll be kicked out of the family.
- 31:37And then there's a pause and everyone kind of starts laughing
- 31:41and like, awkwardly, like, oh,
- 31:45He surely wouldn't kick us out
- 31:47He must be being ridiculous. We're literally here at a
- 31:51ceremony to sign a piece of paper as a family about how much
- 31:55we love each other, yet you're
- 31:59behave. Make it make sense.
- 32:01Yeah, Robyn's like, you can move
- 32:04of the family and they're like, here to celebrate their love.
- 32:08That's just fake, being so happy
- 32:11and if you guys embarrass us the day of, all for show.
- 32:15Yeah, we get some interviews, some back and forth, some sound
- 32:18bites of everyone talking about how horribly the practice went
- 32:22and how they hope the day of is a different experience.
- 32:26Hunter actually says he thinks
- 32:29I was like, see, this is the thing.
- 32:30The older kids. I mean, I shouldn't say the
- 32:32older kids, some of their kids
- 32:35people. I think Hunter's a good person.
- 32:37I think Aspen's a good person.
- 32:40He's literally saying I think it's going to be fun.
- 32:43I don't know that there's many
- 32:46he is, 1617 year olds that are
- 32:49Like he's literally looking on
- 32:53Right. Most kids at that age would be
- 32:54embarrassed and wouldn't want to
- 32:57so they did something right. A few of these kids seem to be
- 33:03decent people. Yeah, as you said, at least
- 33:07Logan and Aspen did something right.
- 33:10Yes, we get some more spooky music and find out that now it's
- 33:16only four days until the celebration.
- 33:20Janelle is having her dress worked on by Sam, and her dress
- 33:24is actually looking really good,
- 33:29not close to being ready, and you can tell hers is the
- 33:33furthest along. So they're showing us the good
- 33:36before the bad and then the ugly.
- 33:42Yeah. Janelle acknowledges that
- 33:45they're cutting things down to
- 33:48are. Christine and Meri come over as
- 33:51they walk in. Christine says Janelle's dress
- 33:53looks great. She's like, Oh my gosh, it looks
- 33:55so good. This is exactly what I
- 33:56envisioned for you. It makes your eyes pop.
- 33:58And I love a blonde in a blue.
- 34:01It's very Ramona blue. For anybody who watches
- 34:03Housewives, it works. Yeah, there's unfinished hams
- 34:07and strings and things, but it
- 34:10Next we go to Robyn's house and Robyn is showing us the
- 34:15commitment celebration. Family jewelry men are getting
- 34:20this gigantic ass leather cuff
- 34:25it like he man bracelets. And Robyn is talking about how
- 34:31her whole life has been building
- 34:36of this type of a plural family.
- 34:39She's 35 and ever since she was little she just knew her life
- 34:44was building up to a moment like this.
- 34:47I don't know about you, but all I could do was stare at the
- 34:53table in front of her and ask myself, what the fuck was this
- 34:59I barely could listen to what she was saying.
- 35:03She's trying to give us some sob shit about her family story and
- 35:07the moment building up to this and being part of this plural
- 35:12family and she mentions that she's 35 and it's finally coming
- 35:21on the table in front of her. There's these cuffs that are
- 35:25going to be for the boys and then some apparently jewelry for
- 35:31We didn't, she didn't even talk about that.
- 35:33She just pointed out that the cuffs are for the boys.
- 35:35And then there's this emblem on it, or this design that is the
- 35:41And as you said before, these people are so fucking literal.
- 35:48It is just pathetic. Yeah, the bracelets, there's
- 35:51like skinny, skinny leather bracelets that must be for the
- 35:59There's multiple different types of the jewelry, all with this
- 36:05silver gigantic ass tree of life.
- 36:08They're all hideous. They're all something that a
- 36:12teenager would never wear, a child would never wear.
- 36:15They're going to be too big on most of the children.
- 36:18They're probably only going to fit the teenagers right now.
- 36:21She's just so proud of it. I don't know why she only shows
- 36:25us the he man cuffs for the older boys but she starts trying
- 36:34that she designed in front of her.
- 36:36I was distracted at one point because she had tears in her
- 36:39eyes talking about this whole sob story, This, Oh, my life is
- 36:42coming to this moment. And that's what the
- 36:44celebration's about. I don't remember the things she
- 36:46was actually saying because I was distracted by the sign
- 36:49behind her that said my sister
- 36:53forged signature repository location.
- 36:55And I was like, yes, forged signature repository location.
- 37:00Robyn, you know, she's just working it and she gets away
- 37:03with it, that bitch. Oh my goodness.
- 37:07Next we get to go to Christine's
- 37:11doing to help us prepare for this celebration ceremony.
- 37:15Tree of life planting shindig in
- 37:21God, she is dying. Sand.
- 37:23For the sand ceremony. She's going to make unique
- 37:26colors of sand for each wife. So they're literally just
- 37:32zooming in on her with these bowls of sand and she's dropping
- 37:37dye in and mixing the sand while
- 37:43talking about how she just wants
- 37:47wives. She just wants to be like
- 37:48friends with them and Oh my God,
- 37:54of sand crinkling directly into her fucking microphone.
- 37:59This entire bit. So as I was distracted by the
- 38:04ugly ass jewelry at Robbins House, now I'm distracted by
- 38:09noises that her mic is picking
- 38:12Yeah, what the fuck is up with
- 38:15Well, you weren't leaning into
- 38:19know, vibes that was going on at
- 38:23If it would have been that, then
- 38:25Right. I mean, I love this whole like I
- 38:27bought white sand and I'm dying it because my sister wives
- 38:30wanted specific colors and I wanted to make sure that they
- 38:33got what they wanted. And it's like this is what we're
- 38:36leaving in. I mean, OK, I mean just just
- 38:40this family. I don't.
- 38:42I don't even. Meanwhile all we're hearing is
- 38:43the bags, that she's opening each one and dumping it into the
- 38:52little bowls, and then she's cheering around the sandy bowl
- 38:57with a spoon and mixing in the
- 39:00And they could have just done without the clip.
- 39:02We didn't need to know that she dyed the sand by hand because
- 39:06she loves them so much. The bit was so awful.
- 39:10The sound was so awful. Why not just cut it?
- 39:13Scrap it. Yeah, Oh my gosh.
- 39:16And I was also wondering, I don't know, but I'm going.
- 39:21Is this a little late for the whole sand pouring trend?
- 39:25You know, I know I'm, I'm taking
- 39:28Oh, people are still doing. OK, OK, because I was going to
- 39:31say, now I'm in this Halloween
- 39:34I'm in danger. I'm in danger.
- 39:35I'm Jamie Lee Curtis. Right now.
- 39:37When someone's coming after me
- 39:40this? Is this still a thing?
- 39:41And it is. It's still a thing.
- 39:43I think the last two weddings I was at, in fact, probably did
- 39:47it. OK, I'm not going to lie and a
- 39:50lot of my friends have done this
- 39:52this. I just think it's corny as
- 39:54fucking overdone and at this point needs to be done.
- 39:59There are so many more unique things that you can do.
- 40:02And to be frank, no one wants to
- 40:05It's like it sits on a shelf in your house.
- 40:07And is it a visual reminder that
- 40:11someone? I mean, I just, I don't.
- 40:14Eventually it gets dropped and broken and then your marriage is
- 40:19So you're putting a curse on yourself.
- 40:20As far as I'm concerned, you're a witch mixing up sand colors.
- 40:31You're performing a spell at your wedding.
- 40:33Oh my gosh, stop. And Christine, she is the third
- 40:36wife in a polygamist family, and she's putting a spell on her
- 40:42And I always think too, I think
- 40:45about a move and I go, what if
- 40:49all the sands all together? Like, do you move it like it's a
- 40:52frappe egg? Do you have to put it in the car
- 40:54with you when you're moving across the country?
- 40:56Can it even move at all? Like, I I don't know, maybe I'm
- 41:00needing too much into it. Yeah.
- 41:01I mean, you know, seriously. Like, I don't know, I, I get it
- 41:04that some of the bits of sand connect, right.
- 41:07And I think Robyn even has a little spiel or someone does
- 41:09about how the grains of sand connect.
- 41:12And so, you know, there's always
- 41:14my color and Robyn's like, I trust me, I need some of your
- 41:18flavor inside of me because I ain't got no flavor.
- 41:20So there's these combinations of
- 41:23and I'm going Oh my God, I'm so glad I'm gay and that I would
- 41:27never do anything like this. The whole point is you could
- 41:30never sort out every grain of sand.
- 41:32Once you're mixed together your souls and whatever combined and
- 41:36you're mixing like the sand bitch.
- 41:39If I wanted to be free of somebody, I would sit my ass
- 41:41down with tweezers and binoculars and I would sort that
- 41:44shit out. Binoculars at the table with
- 41:48binoculars. Not even a microscope.
- 41:51Binoculars, bitch. That's so good, That's so good.
- 41:56Official apologies if we offended you during that little
- 41:59bit, you know, take it up with
- 42:01Be more unique, How about that?
- 42:04For the rest of this episode, we do have quite a few back and
- 42:08forth between things happening and Sam, so we probably won't
- 42:11get into too many details about where they are or whatever.
- 42:14There's a lot of Sam pinning things on people, Sam making the
- 42:21up in the same jeans and the same vest that's going to burst
- 42:24open at any moment. No, no.
- 42:26To be fair, she does have a variety of vests, but the jeans
- 42:29make multiple appearances. Her her general appearance
- 42:32doesn't change much. It just gets equally as weird
- 42:35and strange and spooky. The whole vibe here the
- 42:40producers are trying to create is inducing anxiety on us, like
- 42:45they're trying to induce our anxiety by going back and forth
- 42:50between dressmaking and other things that need to be finished
- 42:54to get the ceremony ready within the next three days now
- 42:58so. Yeah, the splicing is quick, the
- 43:02back and forth is quick, the updates are quick.
- 43:04I totally agree with you. And as I was saying, Sam is back
- 43:08and she's pinning Robyn's dress pieces on her.
- 43:11Robyn is nervous about it not turning out.
- 43:13Of course, I don't care about any other details.
- 43:16Did you care about any other details about Robyn getting her
- 43:18fucking dress pinned on her? No, she's just worried she's not
- 43:21going to like it and I hope she doesn't.
- 43:24Christine says that she can tell
- 43:28face that she is not happy with it thus far.
- 43:32And now we're moving to three days before the ceremony.
- 43:36We're bursting through time to
- 43:40And Kody's meeting with Bree? A reminder.
- 43:42Bree is their event planner in
- 43:44To tell her about his bright idea, he's going to connect 3
- 43:51lines or strings of lights from each house to a center point in
- 43:56the middle of the cul-de-sac. So a reminder for anyone who's
- 43:59new to this podcast, there are
- 44:02around the cul-de-sac. His goal, his plan, what he
- 44:05would like to do is have 3 strands of twinkle lights coming
- 44:09from each house to meet in the
- 44:12above them, above the road. And so he's pulling out this
- 44:16tall ladder, a very tall ladder from the garage and get started
- 44:20with his big, beautiful, bright,
- 44:24He got a somewhat large metal ring to put in the middle and
- 44:27have all the string lights attached to it via some long
- 44:30cables. So at least he's being smart
- 44:32enough to not just try to adhere
- 44:35other. Because honestly, that might be
- 44:37where I started. And then been like, shit, this
- 44:39isn't going to work. So at least he had, you know,
- 44:41that forethought. Yeah, he's engineering this
- 44:44contraption, this lighting contraption.
- 44:47It makes sense. He must have gotten this idea or
- 44:49seen it somewhere, because I've seen this done places before.
- 44:53It's a tension thing. So he's going to connect the
- 44:57lights to the circle and create tension, and the circle holds
- 45:01them all together and it'll be
- 45:03the cul-de-sac. So he did something smart.
- 45:07I don't think it was his idea.
- 45:11but we'll give him a little credit.
- 45:13I guess In theory it should be
- 45:17I mean, I wouldn't be mad at these dresses, but I wouldn't be
- 45:20mad at doing some sort of alternative to that in an
- 45:23environment that, you know, I don't think I would ever be
- 45:25connecting 4 houses at a cul-de-sac, but in some other
- 45:27way. Like I would rock that kind of
- 45:29shit in my backyard I'd be all
- 45:30It I was just going to say I'd
- 45:33and then I no, I don't want to
- 45:35Yeah, yeah. Safety hazard.
- 45:37Not a good idea. Of course, Kody thinks his job,
- 45:40of all of the remaining jobs that everyone is in charge of,
- 45:43is the biggest. All the jokes that could be told
- 45:48about Kody thinking his is the
- 45:50But you know, I think they just kind of tell themselves.
- 45:54We cut to Meri meeting with Sam to work on her dress and this
- 45:58dress. If Meri wants to win something,
- 46:01she's going to win the award for
- 46:04seen in a hot minute. Maybe since we saw Robyn in that
- 46:08the Part 1 of the tell all where
- 46:12That was almost as bad as Meri's.
- 46:14Meri's dress beats that chin. It really does.
- 46:16Like Meri's dress is disgusting.
- 46:18It's horrible. Sam says that the waist is not
- 46:24cannot get the material to lay nice on the waist.
- 46:28She proceeds to say that the material is really only meant
- 46:32for upholstering and cheap Halloween costumes.
- 46:35She says this in front of Meri with vitriol.
- 46:41Sam is losing it. She's pissed, she's frustrated.
- 46:46She's showing her frustration in
- 46:49front of the client. She is being so unprofessional.
- 46:53It's embarrassing. Well, the first thing I thought
- 46:56was OK, so let's describe this
- 46:58It's like a puke green with like
- 47:03I don't even fucking know. It was a hideous color.
- 47:06A metallic Goldie Rust bronze mix.
- 47:11And it has like a Sheen to it, a
- 47:15like something you would upholster a boat seat in in like
- 47:18the 70s or something. And I agree, cheap Halloween
- 47:23something. And Sam's saying, you know, we
- 47:24got to find a way to make it work.
- 47:26And she is getting frustrated.
- 47:29know how you couldn't. I mean, this thing is fucking
- 47:32hideous. The fabric is terrible.
- 47:33Obviously it's unprofessional because she's saying all this
- 47:37right in front of Meri and Meri looks to the side and her lips
- 47:41are tight. She has the most pursed lips
- 47:44I've seen in a hot minute and she is yikesing out.
- 47:48She is going. I don't know what the fuck is
- 47:50going on here and I don't even
- 47:52Well, the material, it's a thick
- 47:58to say glitter metallic on top of it.
- 48:03So it's a very thick type of material.
- 48:05It's not going to lay well. It's not meant to lay well.
- 48:09It's not meant to be fitted form
- 48:14You're stupid to have even thought that type of fabric
- 48:18would be good for dressmaking and for a fitted look.
- 48:23And Meri should even know better
- 48:26So I kind of started getting pissed for Sam at this point
- 48:30too, because Meri obviously picked this fabric Sam should
- 48:35have. And this is where expertise
- 48:37comes in. And she's not an expert.
- 48:39She just graduated and she's learning her lesson.
- 48:42You don't let the client pick the fabric like that.
- 48:46You give them options. You say this isn't going to lay
- 48:49right. I'll tell you why.
- 48:50You tell them why that type of
- 48:53design. You don't allow them to even
- 48:56waste your fucking time trying
- 48:59That's not going to work. So the whole thing just went
- 49:02completely S. Meri should have known better.
- 49:04Sam should have known better. Sam is freaking out.
- 49:07She says that she's already had to fix it four times.
- 49:12There's three days left until the ceremony.
- 49:14I cannot stress enough how hard it is to get a dress fitted.
- 49:19Anyone who has been married before or been in a wedding
- 49:23before and had a bridesmaids dress fitted or a wedding dress
- 49:26fitted knows that you go to your
- 49:31like another one like a week out, you go to multiple fittings
- 49:36so that things fit like a glove and you're paying for tailoring
- 49:41at that point. This is outrageous to me.
- 49:44Yeah, it also doesn't align with
- 49:49the beginning of this episode.
- 49:54It's like, OK, so maybe Meri saw
- 49:57edgy because it's hideous. And I mean I agree if you were
- 50:00to wear it it would be edgy because it is insane looking,
- 50:03but it's certainly not flowy by any stretch.
- 50:06The only thing it would maybe work for is a faux leather
- 50:10pleathery miniskirt. I don't know.
- 50:14It doesn't work for the area. She's trying to fit it under the
- 50:17chest. It's too thick for that stupid.
- 50:22At this point, Sam says something along the lines of
- 50:24it's not looking like this is going to workout.
- 50:27And it's funny too, because there's this tension in the air.
- 50:29Sam has like pins in her mouth
- 50:32It's just like everything is not
- 50:36The scene is nothing is working.
- 50:38They give us whiplash like they do.
- 50:40And, you know, they're trying to induce our anxiety because they
- 50:44cut from this dress moment with Meri and Sam to Kody drilling
- 50:49anchors into the side of one of the houses so that he can
- 50:54connect the cables so that he can connect the hooks to the
- 50:59center circle. And he's going house to house
- 51:03connecting these cables so that he can put the string lights,
- 51:06wrap them around the cables to the center thing.
- 51:09He's literally drilling into their brand new houses.
- 51:12Yeah, into the stucco. Like directly.
- 51:14Into the stucco, Yeah. So they cut from that back to
- 51:20Sam and Meri, and Sam finally admits that this dress is just
- 51:28Yeah, and start over. Thank you.
- 51:30Meri even comments that she doesn't understand Sam's
- 51:34creative process. She would have scrapped the idea
- 51:40in on Sam's creative process so she allowed her to go until
- 51:43she was fed up with it. You fucking dumb.
- 51:47It's three days out and you know how much goes into sewing a
- 51:51dress and you allowed this to happen.
- 51:53If you knew it wasn't going to work, you should have said, you
- 51:56know, I actually know a bit about sewing.
- 51:58I just don't see this working. Let's just move on now.
- 52:01You know, they do need to have these things to overcome or
- 52:04these, you know, conflict moments or these escalation
- 52:06points. And at this point, Meri does
- 52:09acknowledge that she doesn't know what she's going to do.
- 52:11And it's kind of like the cliffhanger of this scene is,
- 52:14well, now I don't know what I'm going to do.
- 52:16And, you know, in classic storytelling, that's a a moment
- 52:19that happens often. So I think that they allow some
- 52:22of this to go longer and more simply for that reason.
- 52:26But, you know, we're here for it.
- 52:28We're talking about it years later, here we are.
- 52:30I would believe that maybe they had done that and that they were
- 52:37and they were just filming this for the tension.
- 52:39If Sam wasn't freaking out so much, I would believe that.
- 52:43Yeah. But Sam is truly panicking.
- 52:47You can tell she's freaking out. She's lost all sense of decorum.
- 52:54when she walked in the first time around, and she doesn't
- 52:56have it now at all. You.
- 52:58Have some high expectations of
- 53:03I just feel like to be on a show
- 53:06If I saw this I would not be hiring this girl for anything.
- 53:10It's embarrassing. She shouldn't have done this.
- 53:13No, she was set up for failure
- 53:17Quite a contrast from whoever that girl that owns Gimme Sugar.
- 53:21She was like, I can build you whatever you want, I'll put the
- 53:23poles, I'll put the stakes. I'll haunt your nightmares at
- 53:27your commitment ceremony or your
- 53:30backyard. She was rocking it and she was
- 53:33giving a good impression. And you're right, Sam, quite the
- 53:36opposite. Just like Kennedy with the
- 53:38hairdressing and she kept talking about Kody going bald
- 53:42and I'm like shut the fuck up.
- 53:46And you're saying this on TV and
- 53:49Some of these people that sell
- 53:53TV for 5 minutes when it's all
- 53:575 minutes total maybe. And you looked like a goddamn
- 53:59fool and now who's going to hire
- 54:02Why'd you do it? You should start a class honey.
- 54:04You should put it online. Like are you going to appear on
- 54:06television? Let me get you some pro tips.
- 54:08I have a podcast talking shit about losers like you could be
- 54:12if you don't take my course. I think I see a business
- 54:14opportunity, opportunity for you
- 54:15I think it's great. I mean, I know I say dumb shit
- 54:19all the time. I just don't think that it would
- 54:22be worth potentially ruining the
- 54:27I don't know, maybe I'm being harsh.
- 54:29I probably am being really harsh
- 54:33embarrassing. I get secondhand embarrassment
- 54:36so bad and this was brutal to watch.
- 54:40Sam, if you need some moral support, I'm here for you.
- 54:42Don't go to Kimber. She will.
- 54:44Don't come to me. Please.
- 54:45She'll tear you apart. But I'm here for you.
- 54:47I'll be here for you. Oh.
- 54:49Boy. But A twist of fate.
- 54:50Wow, this is a weird episode. This is spooky.
- 54:55Me crying so much in the last couple and being sentimental and
- 54:59now I'm just like this bitch can't make a dress to save her
- 55:03life. Tearing poor Sam apart.
- 55:05Oh my gosh, God. Back outside, Kody tells us he's
- 55:10been putting the wires up all day.
- 55:13Literally all day. And it does ring true to me
- 55:16because we see a lot of footage of him doing things and also
- 55:18when he met with Bree earlier it
- 55:21And now we're coming up to the
- 55:24he's only put up 3 wires at this
- 55:28Now, I'm not the best at math,
- 55:31So, you know, he confirms my terrible math skills by saying
- 55:35that he has 9 left to do the next day and he's optimistic and
- 55:38hopeful he'll be able to achieve
- 55:41And I'm going, you think the next day you're going to be able
- 55:44to do 3 times what you did today.
- 55:45Now, of course, learning curves for everything.
- 55:47You get the patterns, you get the things.
- 55:49But this seems wildly optimistic, of course.
- 55:53And then we cut to the next day because we're building that
- 55:55anxiety. We got to move quick.
- 55:56We got to move quick. We're picking up the pace,
- 55:58picking up the pace. And we're at Christine's house
- 56:02and we get to see Christine trying on her dress.
- 56:07It looks like a 70s burnt orange
- 56:11Renaissance Faire disaster on crack.
- 56:14Now I am a little upset, honey, because you said Renaissance
- 56:17Faire and the first part of this
- 56:20stole my Renaissance Faire reference.
- 56:24Well technically this type of dress would be from the medieval
- 56:27era but it is renaissance festival ish because a run fest
- 56:34you just wear whatever the fuck kind of, you know, era you.
- 56:38Want right? Sure.
- 56:39But it is a very medieval, so it's even worse.
- 56:42Right. It's like out of the Dark Ages.
- 56:44The Renaissance era, it is. It's straight up is.
- 56:48I'm not even kidding. It's outrageous.
- 56:51Yes. You'd lift the sleeves up and
- 56:53it'd be like, oh, desperate. Christine, she's up in the
- 57:00tower. I mean, it is a Princess dress.
- 57:02It's just the not the Princess
- 57:03It's like the plague is taking
- 57:07Christine in this hideous, hideous fucking dress.
- 57:11She keeps commenting on how heavy and huge and it is, yeah.
- 57:20It looks like it weighs as much as me and it is you.
- 57:22We were just told to remind everybody during the rehearsal
- 57:28of the ceremony how hot it is.
- 57:34And this is the material you picked and this is the dress
- 57:37that you chose to have created
- 57:40Are we going to see her pass out
- 57:45exhaustion from this dress? We need a medic.
- 57:49We need a medic and we need production to take care of it
- 57:51because no one here has insurance like, Oh my God, this
- 57:54family. Emergency.
- 57:56Yeah. We need to go to emergency got
- 57:59to get. Christine to emergency and you
- 58:03know, during the scene, Sam starts removing some of this
- 58:05fabric, you know, to lighten Christine's load to make her
- 58:10less of a mobile home looking outfit that she's trailing
- 58:14around on her just like insane.
- 58:16Oh my God. It has these big ribbons hanging
- 58:23So when you take those ribbons in and tie it, it does cinch the
- 58:37This was not executed correctly at all.
- 58:41I sew a little bit, and I know a little bit about sewing.
- 58:46I'm not great at it at all, but I do it for funsies.
- 58:51I've sewn Halloween costumes for my kids.
- 58:53Yeah, I even am appalled by this.
- 58:56Yes. No, you have, you know, you're
- 59:01because some of your outfits have turned out super cute for
- 59:06I mean really what Sam does is end up removing fabric in the
- 59:10back. Like we see her cutting out
- 59:12panels and pulling things off and Christine's like, am I
- 59:14exposed? Am I exposed?
- 59:16It's like. But you're not.
- 59:18Exposed honey, calm down, there's 17 layers of fucking
- 59:21fabric here. So she's tearing apart work that
- 59:30new she is to this whole thing. I can't stress enough that they
- 59:36just keep going the cheap route with everything.
- 59:38And they did it again with the dress designer.
- 59:41And I'm sorry to her and I'm sorry I'm being so mean, but she
- 59:46This was just too big of a bite for your first job.
- 59:50Oh my gosh, when you say they go cheap on everything, I'm just
- 59:53imagining the pergola collapsing on the entire family during the
- 59:56ceremony because they went cheap on the pergola.
- 59:59Oh God I wish that would happen but.
- 1:00:01You're wrong because that was for Robyn, so they went all out
- 1:00:05and spent the money on it. So it's not going to collapse,
- 1:00:12You are so right. Wishful thinking.
- 1:00:15They want to cut any corners. No, Robyn.
- 1:00:17No. It's definitely the most
- 1:00:19expensive pergola in Southern Nevada.
- 1:00:21Kody returns outside to continue work on the cables on this next
- 1:00:26day, and he says he's got the pattern down to two hours per
- 1:00:30cable. So, you know, he's making some
- 1:00:35Is he stopping every 15 minutes
- 1:00:38to go give Robyn a little smooch?
- 1:00:40Because that's a long time. But also I'm going if it really
- 1:00:43takes that long, I would be very
- 1:00:46I would. I mean, it's entire days of time
- 1:00:49gone spent on this. I would have redone my math to
- 1:00:52lessen the amount of cables maybe.
- 1:00:55Right. Yeah.
- 1:00:56At that point, knowing that you might not get done, I would
- 1:00:59have. You had three done the first
- 1:01:02day, I would have figured out how to do one more to each house
- 1:01:05and have it look good. Yeah, and it still would look
- 1:01:08good. You could have even strung
- 1:01:09lights the opposite way like a
- 1:01:13around it to have more lights.
- 1:01:18seems to dig his heels in a bit when it's not the best idea.
- 1:01:21He just can't recalibrate and come back from it.
- 1:01:25And as the sunsets for the day, the adults are chatting about
- 1:01:29all the things that still need
- 1:01:33And to be fair, it's a lot like they go through this list.
- 1:01:37What was it? The rentals, The food he's still
- 1:01:39got to do, the lights. They need to finish their
- 1:01:41clothing. They are going to rehearse again
- 1:01:43with the kids. They're going to do all of these
- 1:01:45things in one day. Supposedly these people can't do
- 1:01:49anything, so I don't know how this is going to happen.
- 1:01:51They say it's 48 hours away, the
- 1:01:56they want everything done the next day.
- 1:01:59That's right. So they want everything done a
- 1:02:01day out so that the day of they're focused on getting ready
- 1:02:05themselves for the ceremony. It's not looking good for them.
- 1:02:10Everything's going South and nothing is finished.
- 1:02:13Janelle straight up says nothing
- 1:02:16So they only have these two days, one day between the day of
- 1:02:20the ceremony and nothing is done.
- 1:02:25Well, you know, I'd be freaking out, but I wouldn't have done
- 1:02:27any of this, so I don't know what to say.
- 1:02:29It's like you made your bed. Like here you are.
- 1:02:31Janelle says she's worried the
- 1:02:35which I think is a weird comment.
- 1:02:37I agree it was weird, especially
- 1:02:40Like what are you talking about?
- 1:02:41Like you don't give a fuck about anything and now you're at
- 1:02:44literally the 11th hour and you're worried it's not going to
- 1:02:48you've made it too fancy and that's your problem.
- 1:02:51Like what are you talking about? So everything is going to look
- 1:02:59everything. I don't you have you ever been
- 1:03:11know what to say? I think I've offended enough of
- 1:03:15our listeners this episode that I'm going to plead the fifth, I
- 1:03:20think. She's worried about that
- 1:03:22happening because, you know, Janelle's so practical and she's
- 1:03:28probably seen a DIY go very horribly wrong in this family,
- 1:03:38has to see? Yes, like they just should have
- 1:03:40had Meri start like a month beforehand and just do it all
- 1:03:43and it probably would have been better, if not the same.
- 1:03:47And now we get the coming up on. Oh boy, I got some tingles and
- 1:03:55foot was asleep and it's not just because I was possessed by
- 1:03:59the spirit of Mystic Mona or Nipple Tassel Mona.
- 1:04:03Nobody was possessing me, but I got some tingles because we get
- 1:04:08a preview. Oh, we get a preview.
- 1:04:09We get a preview of one of my favorite Sister Wives moments.
- 1:04:23we're going to talk about it, but they're taking their
- 1:04:26pictures and Oh my God, just in time for Halloween.
- 1:04:30What a fucking trick or treat. Both a trick and a treat.
- 1:04:34I'm so excited. We get one of the craziest, most
- 1:04:46I'm so excited. I'm so excited.
- 1:04:49Yeah, seriously, he looks like he is going to end up in
- 1:04:53hospital because he lose it. He's going to end up in the
- 1:04:57loony bin down in Tokus. We've got Christine going to
- 1:05:01emergency, We've got Kody going to emergency.
- 1:05:03We've got Robyn who should just, we don't want to bring her to
- 1:05:06emergency, just let her die. Oh God, I can't say that.
- 1:05:08I can't say that. We've got other family members
- 1:05:14emergency. It's going to be a big doll, a
- 1:05:26Share are shit stains and mustard seeds.
- 1:05:29Honey, why don't you get us started with your mustard seed?
- 1:05:33My mustard seed is going to go
- 1:05:35to Maddie for fucking with Robyn.
- 1:05:39Oh yes, Maddie started a whole
- 1:05:49for simply no reason whatsoever.
- 1:05:51Just some dumb teenage comments, some offhanded, potentially
- 1:05:56high, allegedly not saying she was wasn't just by, you know,
- 1:06:02simply asking what would happen if she chose not to sign her
- 1:06:06life away in blood. And I think that it was a a good
- 1:06:16viewers. It really, really did.
- 1:06:18Yeah, anytime someone fucks with Robyn they definitely deserve a
- 1:06:22mustard seed. I I agree.
- 1:06:23I agree. She even admitted that it was to
- 1:06:28And I appreciate her candor. So thank you for giving us that,
- 1:06:33What about you? Who's getting your mustard seed
- 1:06:37this time around? It truly is a special time in my
- 1:06:46seed this season and now I'm giving Kody a mustard seed this
- 1:06:50season. It's a big dull.
- 1:06:52It's a big dull. He did attempt and not finish an
- 1:07:01lights. I like the idea and he might
- 1:07:04have stolen that idea. Maybe he was inspired by
- 1:07:06Pinterest. Who knows?
- 1:07:08I can't comment on his execution
- 1:07:10finished, but I like the idea and I like the initiative.
- 1:07:14I also appreciate and want to congratulate him personally for
- 1:07:19navigating that experience where
- 1:07:23and be humiliated in front of America by asking him what do
- 1:07:27you think in the most tedious thing he's probably ever seen in
- 1:07:29his life, he navigated that well.
- 1:07:32Janelle and Christine both praised him for speaking from
- 1:07:35his heart, which was nice. And there was also a point where
- 1:07:40he said if you don't sign this
- 1:07:44And he told his children that if
- 1:07:46kick them out of the family. And I appreciated those things.
- 1:07:51Also, I don't really know what
- 1:07:56this episode. So, you know, when the bar's
- 1:07:57low, you kind of got to go for
- 1:07:59I, I don't really, I'm not standing behind this decision
- 1:08:02with the same kind of pride. I would stand behind, let's say,
- 1:08:05a shit stain for Robyn. I would always stand behind a
- 1:08:08shit stain for Robyn. I would salute it.
- 1:08:10I would be proud. But this one I'm reluctantly
- 1:08:14giving my mustard seed to Kody.
- 1:08:16OK, well it truly is a Halloween miracle.
- 1:08:19All right, darling, shit stain. Who's your shit stain?
- 1:08:27You. Know at first I was thinking I
- 1:08:49the get go how she wants her dress to be funky and unique and
- 1:09:02flowy and comfortable and then obviously picked this horseshit
- 1:09:06fabric to work with. She should know better and she
- 1:09:20Not workable whatsoever. Just like Sam said, upholstery
- 1:09:29She should have known better. She has the skills enough to
- 1:09:34know better and now I almost feel like, does she do this type
- 1:09:41Does she want to go out and buy a dress?
- 1:09:44Did she already have another dress?
- 1:09:46Did she have a dress in mind that she really wanted?
- 1:09:48And now she's going to be the one wife that doesn't have a
- 1:09:51dress made for her? Because I was thinking that was
- 1:09:54going to be Robyn, but now I'm wondering.
- 1:09:56It's getting down to the wire here.
- 1:09:59We've got 48 hours left. If this timeline is actually
- 1:10:04accurate, seems like there's no way.
- 1:10:07I have to say, move over Mystic Mona, take that plastic table.
- 1:10:14ball. Not saying that you're right,
- 1:10:16but I think you might be predicting the future.
- 1:10:20It's a little lazy. It's a little hard to see.
- 1:10:22It's a little hard to see this crystal ball.
- 1:10:25It's brown, It's hideous brown. It's shit stain brown.
- 1:10:29You all can't see it, but I am swinging my own nipple tassels
- 1:10:37Like helicopter Dick style. Just reading into the future as
- 1:10:43Chris stares into the twirling nipples and goes into a trance
- 1:10:49That's what's happening. I am hypnotized.
- 1:10:51Meri gets my shit stained. Oh, wait, no, no, Break the
- 1:10:55spell. Break the spell.
- 1:10:56We can't. I can't do that.
- 1:10:57I can't do that. Not on this podcast, not two
- 1:10:59shit stains for Meri in one episode.
- 1:11:01No, my shit stain is going to go to her sister wife Robyn.
- 1:11:06Oh, Robyn. I'm going to start with
- 1:11:09something else. I forgot to mention that I
- 1:11:11noticed underneath that sign about my sister wife's closet,
- 1:11:22you you'd have to freeze frame. You'd have to really look for it
- 1:11:32a garbage can or something. I couldn't quite tell it was
- 1:11:36sitting on, but a big doll, an expensive doll, a Dolly in a
- 1:11:40dress. A little preview of what's to
- 1:11:42come in Robyn's life that we'll learn about is some Dolly Dolly
- 1:11:46love. Also she suggested that the
- 1:11:50children move out of the house if they don't sign a made-up
- 1:11:55fucking thing that matters nothing to no one, which is just
- 1:12:05And I'm going, honey, this is not working for you.
- 1:12:08You are being filmed. If you're going to do your hair
- 1:12:11for scenes where you're sitting around doing nothing, if you're
- 1:12:13going to get all gussied up to literally do nothing, this bitch
- 1:12:19But then you're out here doing this activity and you've got, I
- 1:12:22don't know, maybe some like a mascara on.
- 1:12:24And you're wearing this ball cap and you look like a 12 year old
- 1:12:27boy yelling at some kids about not following the rules, about
- 1:12:32Oh, and you know, to counter your mustard seed, she did get
- 1:12:39So I'm just going to put all the shit in Robyn's face for this
- 1:12:43episode. Fair.
- 1:12:44It's fair. It's always fair.
- 1:12:45Yeah. I think we've given mustard
- 1:12:49seeds to Kody a few times, but I think Robyn's never gotten a
- 1:12:53mustard seed. Still right?
- 1:12:55Somebody tell us. Let us know.
- 1:12:58Right. If you know if we've done it,
- 1:13:00please tell us. Tell us in the comments if we've
- 1:13:03We need to know our keep sweet moment in this very spooky
- 1:13:08episode and we are all very much afraid of what is to come.
- 1:13:13Comes to us from season 6 episode 13 boys night out.
- 1:13:18A comment left from Brittany lopper on YouTube.
- 1:13:21And Brittany tells us I went parasailing and the boat stopped
- 1:13:31hurt, but we had to unhook super quick because the parachute
- 1:13:35started pulling us down. But I didn't die.
- 1:13:39I love it, I love it. I know, right?
- 1:13:43I know. So thank you so much Brittany
- 1:13:46for letting us know that you survived A parasailing incident
- 1:13:48that was near death and this only confirms that some man
- 1:13:52should pay for me to do the same thing in the future.
- 1:13:55So thank you so much. We are appreciative and you get
- 1:13:58our keep sweet moment this week.
- 1:14:00Some man should pay for you to
- 1:14:03It would be wonderful. And I'm like, are you putting
- 1:14:05this into the universe at the end of a Halloween special?
- 1:14:08That's not a Halloween special.
- 1:14:09It's just us being deadbeat losers.
- 1:14:12No. You know one thing that I was
- 1:14:14thinking though, as you were remarking about the doll in the
- 1:14:18background. First of all, Robyn would love
- 1:14:27fucking horrible person because who hates animals and loves
- 1:14:30creepy ass dolls? And then I thought, wouldn't it
- 1:14:33be nice of us to send her a little gift and send her a
- 1:14:38haunted Annabelle doll, perhaps let's send Robyn a haunted doll,
- 1:14:48She wouldn't even know. She wouldn't have to know it was
- 1:14:53I think we're doing it. Oh my God, if anyone.
- 1:14:57OK, so how do we get someone to help us figure out where to send
- 1:15:05else out loud. If anyone listening to this
- 1:15:08podcast knows how we could maybe facilitate this a little bit.
- 1:15:12Not get the doll. Not how to send a doll, not how
- 1:15:15to get it possessed, but where could we potentially send it to?
- 1:15:22asking for anything specific. Kimber bringing up this idea.
- 1:15:24It was all alleged. It's all made-up.
- 1:15:26It's all part of a dream. You're dreaming right now.
- 1:15:31I like it, honey. I like it.
- 1:15:35I highly suggest if you haven't liked subscribed, followed,
- 1:15:39given us five stars of course,
- 1:15:43return next week as we begin the
- 1:15:47with the Browns. Until then, may it haunt your
- 1:15:51nightmares and may you, I don't know, bleed out of your eyes if
- 1:15:54you're fucking possessed doll.
- 1:15:57for people hang on. We don't want our listeners eyes
- 1:15:59to bleed. What am I saying?
- 1:16:00Oh my gosh, it's. My evil laugh.
- 1:16:04I've heard that if you go into
- 1:16:08say Robyn's name 10 times and turn around while holding a doll
- 1:16:13of your own and look into the mirror, you'll see her standing
- 1:16:18behind you with her own 10203040
- 1:16:27Of course, draped in by sister
- 1:16:30What a vision. Ridiculous.
