0:32
pod. Yeah, before we get into today's episode, we want to remind

1:21
thank you. All Right, before we get into the latest episode of Sister
1:25
Wives, which I just can't Every time I get up on this podcast,
1:29
I am complaining about how they are manufacturing this season, how they are editing
1:34
and producing and cobbling together scenes that we are seeing over and over and over
1:40
again. And this is probably the worst Offender episode out of them all.
1:44
It was really bad. It was all filler, all bullshit that I don't
1:48
care about. I don't care about Christine's birthday. I'm sorry. And we
1:51
know though, and we already know it all. It's just like so ridiculous.
1:56
We could have had the whole coyote past scene in this episode, but
1:59
no, we gotta wait for it. I know, we have to wait
2:01
until next week when she's talking about her estate and now ambiguously, and so
2:07
we're gonna have to divine from the gods, which she's actually talking about.
2:09
It's getting fucking old, and I think there's only gonna be fourteen episodes.
2:14
This is the twelfth, so we have probably two more. It's gonna end
2:16
around Thanksgiving and we're gonna have We're gonna have the same amount of information as
2:22
like episode two or three. Yep, nothing new has been given in this
2:25
and you know what, We're still watching it avidly like a couple of rabbits
2:30
because it's our job. Yeah, but I mean, I would like our
2:34
job to be pleasurable. Great, I'd like to enjoy my time. Yeah,
2:38
every week it's us logs, but we try to keep it entertaining for
2:42
you. And we know there are so many crazy people just like us out
2:46
here who are thoroughly invested in the Browns, and so we're gonna keep recappy.
2:50
You can't stop us, no, All right, before we get into
2:52
the episode, I know that we have a couple of items that we wanted
2:54
to talk about. Yeah, just a little bit. Okay, Well,
2:59
first before you get before you get into all of that, Beatrice, I
3:04
wanted to talk a little bit about the matching tattoos that you, yeah,
3:08
in your forensic Raccoon investigation discovered. Yeah. So David Woolly, Christine's new
3:15
lover husband. He posted on Instagram just a couple days ago a series of
3:21
photos of him and Christine on a Plexus cruise. Yeah, and there was
3:24
one photo in particular, and we'll put it in the YouTube video for those
3:28
of you watching, there's one photo in particular where he's got a shirt of
3:32
and he's got a simple tattoo. And I noticed from my raccoon memory that
3:38
it's the same tattoo that Christine has on her boobet. Yeah, on her
3:40
boobet. So they got matching titty tattoos. Because if you guys don't remember,
3:46
Christine posted on June sixteenth, twenty twenty three, a picture of her
3:50
in a black dress was off the shoulder and she was standing next to Janelle
3:53
and you could see her titty tattoo and it's the same symbol and apparently some
3:57
weird Celtic symbol that means nibi. I love it. I mean it's cute.
4:01
El scandalo, I love restuss. Yeah. I love that. It's
4:04
a matching tattoo. My name must be serious. So I thought that was
4:09
cool. That is cool, but not a lot of people noticed. I
4:12
was commenting on it and stuff, and people were like, what are you
4:14
talking about it? I don't know what you're talking about. I don't know
4:15
what matching tattoo. So we had to throw it out there, yeah,
4:18
and let everybody know that they have matching tattoos and that they are inlaw love
4:25
in case you missed it now. Also, we did have somebody right in
4:29
last week after our last episode. Yeah, her name was Holly h And
4:33
I have what she wrote, and I thought we would share it and maybe
4:35
discuss She writes, HI from Utah. Here, oftentimes the women don't put
4:41
the father's names on the birth certificate so that they can collect and receive Medicaid,
4:46
food stamps and chip benefits, to which you said, how do they
4:49
not get caught for that? And then she answered they have. Tom Green
4:55
was a big one that got caught for welfare fraud, but many of them
5:00
do it by not putting the father's name on the birth certificate. I feel
5:02
like that's why they oftentimes also have home births. He'll dale, Utah and
5:09
Colorado City, Arizona are huge polygamy cities. I bet there is so much
5:14
that goes on, but they can't prove. They will chase you out of
5:17
these cities if you show up there. It is crazy. So this is
5:23
in response obviously to us discussing whether Cody had put his name on Christine's children's
5:29
birth certificates. We know he did with Janelle, but I guess it's a
5:33
thing with polygamist families to keep the father's name off the certificate so that they
5:38
can get these government benefits. Yeah, and that makes me wonder, Okay,
5:42
no, wonder it's illegal it or was illegal in Utah because you have
5:46
all these people kind of gaming the system. And then on top of all
5:48
of this stuff of getting the benefits and everything, they're also filing bankruptcy right
5:55
and putting their money in weird hedge funge and shit and LLC's and all of
5:59
this stuff like gaming the system. And I mean more paraitia, I mean,
6:02
fuck the system. But I'm just like, that's crazy. It is
6:06
crazy. And I think Christine has declared bankruptcy. I wonder how many times
6:11
all of them have declared bankruptcy? Do any of you know? Because we
6:14
want to know. I want to know the coins. So that was interesting,
6:15
and that made me remember this time that I went to I think we
6:20
went to Canab, Utah. We were driving around Utah, Arizona, and
6:26
we ended up in Colorado City and I was super unfamiliar with all things Mormonism.
6:32
I didn't know where I was. I just needed some gas. Honey
6:34
pulled into Colorado City. Everybody was kind of dressed old fashioned. Yeah.
6:40
I don't think like Warren Jeff's old fashioned, but pretty old fashioned. And
6:45
I'm telling you everybody was armed. Everybody was armed, and they were looking
6:48
at me sideways. I'm just a little lady trying to get some gas.
6:51
But I could feel how unwelcome I was in Colorado City. Really, this
6:57
was twenty years ago. Maybe things have changed. I have no idea,
7:00
but I got the fuck out of that place. Were you by yourself?
7:01
No, I was with a friend. Oh my god, crazy. They
7:05
were watching us very closely by yikes. Yes, Last, but not least,
7:12
you spent two hours watching the most recent interview with Cody Brown for Mormonism
7:19
Live. Yeah, which is a thing. I guess the Mormons like to
7:23
talk and they like to do it live. Yeah. For those of you
7:27
don't know, Cody was on this weird podcast called Mormonism Live. If you
7:31
want to go find it it, just search Mormonism Live Cody Brown on YouTube.
7:35
And it's the first thing. It's a two hour long podcast of Cody
7:39
talking all things about Mormonism. And there's some things that he kind of mentioned
7:43
in there that I thought were interesting. That's why I took all these prig
7:46
my god, she brought the notes, and I one page, four little
7:48
items we could knock around and talk about. She walks in here with two
7:53
pages, single space notes on the corner written though, oh my god,
7:58
you with your four pages of notes. But I mean, this makes sense.
8:01
But nonetheless, I'm very curious because I knew I would not be able
8:05
to sit through a two our interview with Cody Brown because all he does is
8:09
lie and make shit up and gaslight. So let me ask you this,
8:11
because I really don't know the contents of the interview. Yeah, but did
8:13
he lie and makeup shit and gaslight? Yeah, a little bit. I
8:16
mean, there was some weird things that he kind of sprinkled in there that
8:20
I thought were interesting. Like he talked a lot about Mormonism, as if
8:22
he's like some expert in Mormonism. But some things that he said about it
8:26
were interesting. Like I guess he is kind of distancing himself from like the
8:31
organized religion part of it because he thinks that a lot of the doctrines that
8:35
he was told in like the aub Church and even the LDS Church, he
8:41
believes were only taught as mechanisms of control, like for the women and for
8:46
the men involved and everything. So he doesn't necessarily uphold a lot of the
8:50
beliefs anymore, but he's still like a Mormon. He still considers himself a
8:54
polygamist kind of. He said some things where he's like, well, if
9:00
the teachings that I was taught aren't true, like when I find out when
9:03
I'm dead, then whatever. At least I was trying to be a good
9:05
person, which I thought was interesting because I'm like, you're not really a
9:09
good person. He also says that he doesn't believe in the concept of eternal
9:15
marriage anymore, so in the Polygamist faith, but also in the LDS faith.
9:20
There's this concept of eternal marriage that when you get married to somebody in
9:22
the earthly realm, then you're also sealed in the Mormon temple, which means
9:28
that you're sealed to each other in eternity. And this is kind of what
9:31
Mary references when she's talking about whether she wants to spend eternity with Cody when
9:37
he doesn't even want to be with her in this life, and she does
9:41
kind of talk about the celestial eternal ramifications of their marriage. So this is
9:46
what that's about. Yes, And he was asked this question by one of
9:50
the guys on the podcast, like whether or not he believes in that anymore
9:52
now that he's gone through three divorces, and Cody said no, He's like,
9:56
I don't believe in eternal marriage, so like after we've been divorced and
10:00
everything, like if we can reconcile a little bit or like be amicable,
10:03
then maybe we can still be sealed for eternity. But he says he doesn't
10:07
believe that God would condemn us to a life in eternity in heaven with somebody
10:13
that we hated or like somebody that we couldn't get along with in the earthly
10:16
realm, which I thought was kind of interesting. And then I was asking
10:20
my Mormon friend Ethel, my former Mormon friend Ethel. She grew she was
10:24
in the LDS faith, so she wasn't a fundamentalist Mormon per se, but
10:28
she said that this is like a big thing that's taught in Mormonism, that
10:35
there's no real ramifications for getting a divorce spiritually, like they don't really teach
10:41
what would happen from that. But okay, I mean men can get remarried
10:46
in the Mormon Church and then be sealed to those women in eternity. It's
10:50
like a very weird, convoluted thing. Can women also remarry and get sealed
10:54
to another man? Okay? So right, but Cody mentioned that, I'm
10:58
like, okay, so you're just going to be sealed to eternity with Robin
11:01
then that's what he wants because he's her best customer in this life. And
11:09
in the next he also calls Robin a Diesel Jeans model, Like I did
11:13
hear this? I mean, the subreddits were kind of exploding about that.
11:16
So what is this about? Does she claim that she was a model at
11:20
some point? No, I think for she thought she was hot in Diesel
11:24
jeans. I think that's probably what it was, like, she was so
11:28
hot she's a Diesel Jeans model because her butt looks so good. Okay,
11:31
So they're not putting it out there that she was actually a professional model for
11:35
Diesel Jeans, because that's the way it kind of sounded to me. I
11:37
don't know, I don't think so he kind of said it like off the
11:41
cuff, like when a Diesel Jeans model came into our life and wanted to
11:43
be a part of our family. How could I say no? Like,
11:48
that's the context that he said. Well, I did see the breakdancing video,
11:50
and she is very sexy. She's very sexy with her moves. So
11:54
maybe you put a pair of Diesel jeans on all those things and you become
12:00
forceled as a man. He made a man can become ensourcel He got his
12:03
pencil, nights and heart. Oh my god. He does talk a little
12:07
bit about the show in this podcast episode where he says that initially it started
12:13
with good intentions, and you know, he was really excited to do the
12:16
show with the family, and he used to watch some of the earlier seasons
12:20
and he used to be proud of it. But now as it's gone eighteen
12:24
seasons and he's gone through three divorces, he says he never watches it anymore,
12:30
and that the show's turned to all drama partly because of the network,
12:33
because it makes for better television. Okay, So I'm like, okay,
12:37
every reality TV star says, I know. And he said that the family
12:39
couldn't move on from the drama, and he watches and Robin watches because they
12:45
are both changing their behavior. Like during the season we can see she's not
12:48
crying as much as she used to do now. For example, she's also
12:52
changing her eyebrows and they don't look like apostrophes anymore. So I don't believe
12:58
you. I think you follow. I think you're very, very interested in
13:01
what people are saying about you, because narcissists one hundred percent. And then,
13:05
like this whole podcast is so annoying to go through because Cody talks a
13:09
lot, like he just talks at you, and these people are asking him
13:13
questions and he's not really answering them fully. He's just like giving a long
13:18
fucking monologue, speed or salad. What are you even saying? Like trying
13:22
to act like he's super smart and dignified, but I'm like, dude,
13:24
you sound you're not even answering the questions dumb. He does sound dumb,
13:28
dumb daddy. He does talk about how Robin took a lot of the brunt
13:33
from like the og wives and everything, especially at the beginning, and he's
13:39
like, it was basically from like day one ever since we had our honeymoon,
13:43
which all the other wives got. He does say that, and then
13:46
the other wives trash talked Robin so much that that is what led to their
13:52
downfall. This is the revisionist history bullshit that I cannot stand. Yeah,
13:56
she had an eleven day honeymoon. Christine took a row trip for like two
14:01
days up to see Wynn Brown or something in Wyoming. Nobody really had a
14:05
great marriage and a wedding and or a great honeymoon. So it's just lies.
14:09
And also we saw in the first season, while Christine is literally in
14:13
labor, you run over to Robin's house to say hi to her and she's
14:18
texting you. You're fucking on your phone smiling because you're talking to Robin.
14:20
Yeah, and you go and kiss Robin before you even married her, and
14:24
then you get back to the delivery of truly Yeah, and then the wedding
14:26
dress fiasco. There's plenty of reasons that the women were side eyeing Robin and
14:31
you contributed to them, my guy, yep. And he says in this
14:33
podcast, he's like, anybody, I encourage you to watch the show from
14:37
the beginning and see how Robin was in the wrong, because I don't see
14:41
it. Like he literally says that we are actually doing that, and I
14:45
can see it, and I didn't go into it wanting to villify or demonize
14:50
Robin. I'm just watching and absolutely, starting in the first season, they
14:54
did just about everything wrong. You can't tell me he wasn't driving on the
14:58
weekends to go court Robin and not bang in her. Uh huh. He
15:01
was absolutely banging her. Christine is heavy with child yep. Yeah, just
15:07
lies and obfuscation. No respect for that man, none at all. And
15:11
then the other thing that's been going around the internet a bit was Cody refusing
15:16
to answer someone's question. So at the end of this whole podcast, there
15:20
were a couple of callers that called in with specific questions for Cody Brown.
15:24
They were told to make it respectful. So this one caller calls in and
15:28
says, Hi, Cody, I noticed that a lot on the show.
15:31
You talk badly about the other wives for keeping the children away from you,
15:35
but Robin has kept her children away from their biological father. So how do
15:41
you justify that, to which Cody says, Robin's not doing that, And
15:46
then the caller interrupts him and says, do the kids know that their father
15:50
is dying of cancer? And Cody says, well, they've chosen to No,
15:56
Actually, never mind, I'm not going to answer that because somebody else's
16:00
life. So I'm just going to respectfully decline to answer that. And then
16:04
at the very end of this episode, which this whole episode was live,
16:08
it was filmed live, wasn't recorded pre recorded and edited right, Cody asks
16:14
the hosts of the podcast to edit that part out and they were like,
16:18
we can't edit that out. This is live, dude, And Cody's like,
16:21
well, whatever you put online, can you just edit it out though,
16:22
and they did. My gosh, I thought also he disparaged Robin's one
16:29
of Robin's mothers, like the og wife. Yes, Robin's stepdad or whatever.
16:33
I thought he disparaged that wife. And then he asked them to also
16:37
take that out. Yes, the stream he did, because he disparaged her
16:41
in the context of eternal marriage, because he was saying, I don't think
16:45
it would be fair or like, he doesn't think that God would think it
16:48
would be fair to bind Robin's stepdad or dad or whatever who's married to this
16:53
awful woman, this terrible woman. It would be unfair to her, but
16:57
it would also be unfair to the husband. And so he believes that God
17:00
will judge us all, you know, when we die and he will decide
17:06
who will be eternally stuck with is what could So that was the context of
17:10
that, and then he asked, maybe take that part out because I don't
17:12
want her to see this. Why would he take an interview at this particular
17:17
time while season eighteen is airing and everybody hates him? And Robin like,
17:22
why would you put yourself on live internet? It's not television but on the
17:26
internet, live streaming and open yourself up to questions from the audience. You
17:32
know, there's records everywhere. We are watching the records watching. That is
17:37
the raccoon comment of the year. Thank you who ever asked that question.
17:41
That's awesome because you cannot justify that shit, you hypocrite. That's why he
17:45
declined to answer it. But like this whole thing, it felt like he
17:48
was kind of I mean, it was him producing himself and trying to make
17:52
himself look good, because there were a few moments where he was talking about
17:55
the show and how it's hard for him to watch like some of his worst
17:59
moments be brought casted on live television and then have people judge him for that,
18:03
And I'm like, well, I could understand that if you were a
18:06
decent, respectable person, but like it just feels like it's been several seasons,
18:10
several years of just your worst moments being put on TV, and you're
18:15
thinking that you've done nothing wrong. And he talks a lot about his failures
18:18
with the marriages and everything, but he doesn't take any accountability for them.
18:22
He still says, well, they chose to leave, and I allowed them
18:26
to have that choice, but it's my failures. So it's like he's trying
18:30
to take accountability but not he's stugging around it just to make himself look a
18:34
little bit better in the public eye, you know. And it would be
18:37
one thing if like the camera caught him in the act doing something that was
18:41
untoward or wrong or toxic. But then he sits his ass down on a
18:45
couch in his talking heads, and he doesn't just double down, He quadruples
18:49
down. Yeah, and says even more toxic, hateful shit on the couch.
18:53
So you can't tell me it's the way that TLC is editing it,
18:56
because these editors suck. They do suck. It's based on you, what
19:00
you're saying and what you're doing, right, you can't take accountability for that,
19:03
Well, then you're never going to get your family back, not at
19:07
all, never gonna get your family. But well, thank you for doing
19:08
the heavy lifting beer Buck so that I didn't have to do that. I
19:12
did not want to sit there for two hours with Cock. I have enough
19:17
of this shit week to week. I sent it to you thinking that you
19:19
were gonna watch it, and then she texted me like, two days ago,
19:22
did you take notes on that? Watch it? I'm already oversaturated with
19:26
Cody and Robin Brown. It was a lot. I can barely take this
19:30
season. It's a lot. It is a lot. It's so redundo,
19:33
redund tata redundant. All right, so shall we get into this episode?
19:40
Yeah, Sisters, Season eighteen, Episode twelve, entitled Can't See the Forest
19:45
for the Trees? Get It? Because Mary is taking down two pine trees,
19:52
which is an analogy for her marriage and how she's going to feel on
19:55
the other side of her divorce. Get it? Do you get it?
19:59
No? I didn't get it until just now. Okay, well I'm here
20:00
to help. So this episode starts with Christine's fiftieth birthday. She's having a
20:07
fifties themed birthday party, and it was twenties themed. It's fifties. It's
20:12
like a sock cop and a soda fountain and everything. Hello, stay with
20:17
it, aren't you watching? I know you're snoring. You're totally checked out.
20:21
Yeah. No, it's a fifties themed birthday party. She's dressed up,
20:25
a lot of the guests are dressed up, and she seems really happy.
20:29
Yeah. Janelle calls this like a declaration of her independence and also a
20:33
party that was just easy and fun. There's no politics, There's nobody showing
20:38
up two hours late and giving all of these excuses. It was just nice
20:44
to be together as a family. What did you think of this scene?
20:48
I loved Janelle's subtle shade to Cody and Robin. So I'm like, are
20:51
these people really just showing up late to everything? Because they showed up late
20:53
to Qwenn's wedding, I'm like, are they doing that graduation? Showed up
20:57
late for that too. They showed up late to Logan's graduation, which I
21:00
didn't know because I haven't watched that season yet. But I was watching My
21:03
Girl Red Lipstick reality TV, which I recommend to her own body watch.
21:08
But she was talking about the stadium where Logan's graduation actually took place in Arizona.
21:14
She has been there, she has gone to the stadium, she has
21:18
attended shit there and Robin's I guess excuse at the time that Logan graduated was
21:23
that she got lost, nor I was. It was so confused. I
21:26
don't know what happened. What happened? Wow, whereas Red Lipstick Reality TV
21:33
says, it's really easy. It's just like one staircase lead you right to
21:36
this stadium. You cannot miss it. So she called Robin out. But
21:41
yeah, she was late for Logan, Wow, late for Gwen. She
21:44
would have been late for this if she were invited, she would not have
21:47
gone. Well, she was all sad that she wasn't invited. It stings
21:51
a little bit, that does it. The family's getting together without us and
21:53
we weren't invited, Like did you want to be invited? No, Like
21:57
you wouldn't have gone anyway because he hates Christine and has nothing to do with
22:02
her. It never wants to see her ever again. You guys won't even
22:03
do family reunions. Last episode was the last episode of the one before that,
22:08
where you guys literally said you won't do family reunions because it's not safe
22:15
and you're getting mad, like you're getting upset because you were invited to this
22:18
family gat. I mean, she will not miss an opportunity to victimize herself
22:22
and the little tend Oh my god. We also have Chelte, which I
22:27
try so deeply not to hate because I feel like the world is filled with
22:30
hate at this time. Yeah, and I want to be an emissary of
22:33
love. I just want to be an envoy of good vibes. But every
22:37
time mcchulty is on my television, I just can't. I just check out
22:42
every time they're on. It's like, sh be quiet, be quiet.
22:47
You don't have to say you don't have to always be the main character,
22:51
the center of the room, sucking up all the air in the room.
22:53
We've got Christine for that. Yeah, Okay, it doesn't need to be
22:56
you. It's Christine's Day. But then to learn that she actually told Robin
23:00
and Cody before Christine that she was pregnant with twins, because wow, Robin
23:07
had morning sickness and I'm having morning sickness, and so I just I needed
23:10
some like medical advice, and Robin has been there, so that's why I
23:14
told her first. Oh my god, can I just say as a mother
23:18
who has been divorced one to two thousand times from various men's across men across
23:22
the world. I would have been deeply hurt by that. Yeah, I
23:26
thought so too. I got a couple dms on Instagram of people being like
23:30
the audacity of mchlty to tell Robin first. And my whole thought process with
23:36
this was Mkelty probably told them first because they would have felt but hurt because
23:41
they weren't. But then Christine goes on to say in this episode, mkelty
23:45
has such an amazing relationship with Cody and Robin and how it's always going to
23:48
be that way, and she's like, I love it, It's okay.
23:52
Somethings still tell she'll tell them first, and some things she'll tell me first,
23:55
but it's okay. No, Christine is just not trying to let them
24:00
see her sweat or see her be in pain, and she's trying to act
24:03
like it's okay. Plus she doesn't want to throw mackelty under the bus,
24:07
because Michelty does a great job doing that herself. And I'm telling you,
24:11
as a mother, that would be so very painful, especially because of how
24:15
Cody has treated Christine awful. Cody has been to Christine. It's on television,
24:22
Mickelti, you can't miss it, and Robin has co signed it.
24:25
I would say Robin has orchestrated all of it. She has been abusive to
24:30
your mother, and you are telling Robin and Cody, Cody, who is
24:34
objectively verbally abusive to your mother. You're telling that man before you're telling your
24:38
own mother that you have twins. I lost any shred of respect that I
24:41
had for you, and I had virtually none. Yeah, and I can't
24:45
wait to never have to see her on my television again. And too many
24:49
tacos. Tony, do you think they're going to be on other seasons?
24:52
Yes, with the way that they're talking. Yes, they're already filming for
24:56
the next season. And Christine's wedding is going to be be part of that.
25:00
And so Tony and Michelty are gonna rowl up and they're gonna infect my
25:04
life again and kill my vibe. Vibe check not good, the vibe Chick's
25:11
not good. All right. After this, we bop on over to pawan
25:15
Utah because I just can't get enough of hearing Mary talk about her online clothing
25:22
business and how she's gonna renovate her carriage as into a steampunk gears and weird.
25:30
That surprised me that that would be her aesthetic. I was like,
25:33
n punk, like really really well, yeah, I mean Mary talking about
25:41
her wet bar and how she's like so particular about how things need to look
25:45
and everything. Circles are dumb, but I like gears and stuff and no,
25:48
Wight. This is the most fillery filled segment of this entire episode because
25:57
we've already done it. I've already been there as you guys were moving stuff
26:02
out of the carriage house. We were there when you came back to Parawuana
26:04
and talked about your carriage house and which and your plans for it. And
26:07
now we have another week where we're in this goddamn carriage house talking about some
26:14
design for it, and I'm like, I could not care wow with your
26:18
gay best friend who's like actually trying to give you good advice and you're just
26:21
like not, of course she's not going to take to it. So I
26:23
thought that was a little interesting meeting Blair, who is her gay best friend,
26:29
as you say, and also an interior designer. He's coming with all
26:32
of the plans but she talks a little bit about Blair as it connects to
26:36
her being catfished, and so there was still lot of flashbacks. But she
26:41
was talking about how now in the year of our Law twenty twenty three,
26:45
she has to be careful to vet anybody that she meets online. She needs
26:48
to do a video. Call you better hop your happy ass on a zoom
26:52
so I could see you with my own eyes or else she doesn't take the
26:56
next step with anybody, so cringe, like, why are you talking to
26:59
anybody online without doing a video. All she does is be online. She
27:03
only is on Instagram and Facebook selling her lularo trash. So anybody she meets
27:07
online she has to also see. And I don't blame her because she was
27:11
catfished by a woman. Yeah, she sent a picture with her sucking on
27:15
a banana and she sent voicemails Beatrice to this alleged sam person who was a
27:19
woman who was catfishing her. And I have to ask you, do you
27:23
know that those voicemail recordings are still out there? And so my question to
27:29
you is should we do like a Patreon exclusive and listen to them or is
27:33
that too cruel? Like no, I feel like, I feel like there's
27:36
a limit to what we should do as people, like we should essentially be
27:41
kind at the end of the day. Would it be too unkind if we
27:45
listen to those voicemail messages? I think she's mad shit about it behind a
27:49
paywobbit that should be a Patreon exclusive. I don't think we need to be.
27:55
It's not going to be. She doesn't want anybody to hear those messages.
27:57
Did it? She did it, and then it was on TV,
28:02
the whole thing, and she's like it got blown out of proportion. Well,
28:04
yeah, because you put it on TV and you did this old catfishing
28:08
thing because you were lonely, and I get that, and your husband wasn't
28:12
touching your pool, and I one dred percent advocate for you to get out
28:15
and get your own joy. And everything's like, fine, Why are you
28:18
sending pictures of yourself sucking on a banana to somebody you don't even know?
28:23
Why are you sending voice messages talking dirty to them when you haven't even seen
28:27
them? Like, learn the internet, Learn the Internet. Well, And
28:32
she did interestingly say something like she has her own truth about the catfishing,
28:37
like that there are actually people in her family. I guess the Brown family
28:41
that have their versions of what happened with that catfishing, but she knows her
28:47
truth. I don't know. I wonder if it's somebody other than Cody,
28:49
because I recall Cody being actually really well adjusted and cool with the family when
28:56
this all happened. For example, he was talking to Leon, who was
28:59
really upset about what had happened, and he was telling Leon. I think
29:03
he was taking some ownership for some of it and wanting Leon not to be
29:07
too upset with Mary. So I don't know if it's Cody who has his
29:11
own truth about it. It might be Robin because there's rumors that Robin's really
29:17
good friend Kendra knew that Mary was getting catfished, which means Robin may have
29:22
known Mary was getting catfish when it was going down. Wouldn't that be crazy
29:26
if like Robin was the catfish, Oh my god, or Robin put the
29:30
woman up to the cat see. I wouldn't put it past that demon.
29:34
I mean, what's his name, neve on MTV's Catfish, Like that's happened
29:40
before, Like friends of family members like putting up other people to catfish,
29:45
the people that they know, for years sometimes yes, so it wouldn't be
29:48
out of the realm of possibility. That would be crazy wild, and that'd
29:51
be so crazy. Now, after this, we head on over to Janell.
29:59
Now Janelle isn't flag Staff, and I guess she has moved out of
30:03
the dormitory apartment and she has rented a beautiful abode, nice upscale, nice
30:08
appointments, nice doors, and there's granite in the kitchen and there's space for
30:14
her to walk around. Because that other apartment was booty as it was cramped
30:19
as hell. It was smaller than my little apartment that I have here.
30:22
I'm like, damn, props to you, though, Janelle for finally getting
30:26
out of that and upgrading. But she feels a little weird about it because
30:30
she's got this apartment and now Cody's got to come by and see it,
30:33
right, I guess he's going to be hanging pictures at some point. But
30:37
Janelle is regarding this new apartment as her sanctuary, her space. This is
30:42
her safe space. Everybody needs a safe space. This is a good place
30:47
for Savannah. It's also I guess fifteen hundred square feet, which would be
30:51
bigger than the casita that she actually wants to build. Yeah, Coyote Pass
30:56
so very interesting. I'm happy for her. It's a much nicer apartment,
30:59
way nice. I'm a Taurus, honey. Like, if my if my
31:03
abode and my home does not please me, yeah and stimulate me, I
31:10
cannot be happy. I am very uncomfy. I cannot hang I cannot hang
31:15
it at like a Fairfield. Yeah, I cannot hang at a motel six,
31:18
so you can. I can't sleep, girl, I went to that
31:19
COVID hotel in Galveston. I could not sleep at night. I was talking
31:23
to all my friends all drunk because I get a texted me about it about
31:27
being there, because I just it has to be nice, it has to
31:30
smell good, it has to be clean, it has to be pretty.
31:33
So Janelle is my Torian sister. I know she feels so much better in
31:37
this apartment. Oh totally. But she also does say that it's kind of
31:41
a damper that Cody's there, because she's like, I didn't really want him
31:44
to be here, why are you here? But she invited him to hang
31:47
up pictures, Like why couldn't you hung him up? I don't know.
31:51
I think she's also trying to facilitate the relationship with Savannah because Cody needs his
31:55
wives to make sure that he always has access to his children. Savannah is,
32:00
I guess happy to see Cody. I don't know. She didn't seem
32:04
like it, but Cody says her, him and Savannah's relationship is very sweet,
32:07
right, very nice. Well that's because Savannah's very sweet and gentle and
32:12
nice. It's not because of you, Cody. Nope. And so as
32:15
Cody's walking around oohing and awing over this new apartment, he's getting the distinct
32:21
sense that there's no place for him here. Yeah, that this is all
32:24
about Janelle and Savannah. That the reason she wants this apartment is because they
32:30
actually shared the dormitory apartment together. Dormitory apartment together, to which I have
32:37
to say, really, how often was Cody Brown over at that booty dormitory
32:42
apartment before she kicked him out over the fight. I mean, I can't
32:45
imagine a lot. I doubt he was even really staying there. He says,
32:49
he was like staying there and living there with her. And I'm like,
32:52
why are you though the last time when you came over and yelled at
32:54
her and you were being a piece of shit, you just went over there
32:59
to fill up your Yeah, that was like literally hot water. I can't
33:01
do cold water anymore. And like last episode you were saying I have a
33:06
home, Like I have a home, I have a family, Like I'm
33:08
happy there, Like you don't live anywhere else, Dude, don't act like
33:12
you do. Nope, he does not. And then we go back at
33:16
this point to Parawan and I hate this. Can't we just have one scene
33:20
that we watch to completion and then go to the next scene that we get
33:23
to watch to completion. Why do we have to bop back and forth for
33:29
somebody who has to outline and take notes. It's a whole lot. It
33:31
is a lot of sacrifices I made. So we're back in Parawuan and Blair
33:39
is pulling out his designs. Jen finally arrives and Mary is tickled. She's
33:46
looking at the designs. She's liking them a lot. This is I think
33:51
where she talks about admitting that she is a control freak. Yeah, we
33:55
get the flash backs of her in the cul de sac, I guess,
34:00
planning her own build, which I never saw those seasons me neither, So
34:02
I'm interested to go back and see how she was, but she says that
34:06
she's actually a control freak because she has to protect herself because nobody else is
34:12
going to take care of her. Walls up walls. I mean, that's
34:15
Lily what it means. It's true. I mean yeah, because Coddy never
34:20
advocates her for her so yeah, I mean I totally get it. But
34:22
like, also go to therapy. Geez, stop god Worthy up for real.
34:29
Then we go back to Janelle and Cody, and this is where we
34:31
start to talk about Coyote Pass. Yeah, which I think is interesting because
34:37
Cody's like walking around the apartment talking about the size of the apartment versus what
34:44
she proposes to build on Coyote Pass, and he's using terms like we and
34:49
us, And she says to the camera, I don't know what's gotten in
34:52
his top ramen Gord, but there's no WI, there's no US. This
34:55
is me. I'm the one that's solely financing this. It's not going to
35:00
be him, So he has no say in what I'm going to do on
35:02
my piece of proper day. That was pretty big, and she said that
35:06
she doesn't even know if he'll ever light a fire under his own ass to
35:09
go and build over there. So she's just gonna build because she needs an
35:14
estate. She needs something to pass down to her kids. That's the sole
35:16
motivation for building out there. And she's like, and if I build out
35:21
there and they decide to build out there, then there's such a thing as
35:22
a really tall fence. I'm like, damn, that would be so turbo
35:28
awkward. Though. Can you imagine her children, Gabe and Garrison, for
35:31
example, coming over to have dinner with their mom and seeing Cody right next
35:37
door at Robin's house. Yeah, in bed with Robin where he always is
35:40
apparently, And it would just be very, very strange. Personally. I
35:45
would not want to build on Cody passed, I rest to know. I
35:47
would want them to buy me out, Yep. I'd want to purchase somewhere
35:51
else, maybe go back to Utah, build my own little house, and
35:54
forget about them and never ever have to see them again. I know.
35:58
I don't know why she doesn't just go in half seas on a property with
36:01
Christine and then they can just like live near each other with all of their
36:06
kids and be happy. Like that's what you should do, Jane. I
36:08
don't even know why you're in flag Staff, but I think she loves the
36:12
mountains. Actually, I think she loves There's last staff. Generally there are
36:15
there's mountains all over. You don't need to be right next to Cody.
36:19
No, all right, I guess the conversation is just getting awkward. They're
36:23
winding down, Like Cody doesn't know what to say. He's commenting on the
36:27
difference between the granite on the island versus the granite on the countertops is a
36:30
Christion something that we all haven't seen before. We have, but he doesn't
36:36
know what to say. And this is where he says something like the fact
36:38
of the matter is is that I spend and I'm paraphrasing, but I spend
36:43
the majority of my time at Robin's house with my kids there. That's my
36:49
life. When I'm here with Janelle, I can't talk about that life,
36:52
Eric go I end up not being able to talk about anything. And so
36:55
this conversation he's telling us on the couch, this conversation is going nowhere.
37:00
It's awkward, it's it's stilted because I don't know what to say. I
37:02
can't talk about my real wife, I can't talk about my real home.
37:06
I can't talk about my real life. Talk about disconnected from everybody except for
37:14
Robin and her crouch goblins. Like it's so crazy to me that he can
37:17
say these things on TV and then also say Robin's not my favorite. I
37:23
don't favor anybody. I treated all the wives with the most respect, and
37:28
I treated them all good, and they just trash talk me and they keep
37:30
me away from my kids, and they're just evil, terrible people. And
37:32
the whole reason why the family's broken up is because of Christine. Like,
37:37
it's just crazy. Yeah, he's crazy. You're literally saying it out loud,
37:39
dude. I spend all of my time with Robin and her kids.
37:43
I can't talk about anything else but them because they consume all of my time.
37:46
But I don't have any favorite. I've never had any favorite. Crazy.
37:51
Wow. Janelle also says that Cody has not made any attempt whatsoever to
37:59
like book a counselor to intro spect, to try and develop himself spiritually,
38:06
physically, personally. He keeps making these attempts to reconcile. He keeps asking
38:12
her why can't we reconcile, and she's just like, hmm, I don't
38:15
really want to, And plus I don't have anything in common with your otherwives,
38:21
I e. Robin and Mary. I don't see them in my life.
38:24
We don't have anything that intersects, and so reconciliation doesn't seem to make
38:30
sense, which seems to make him sad. I mean, I guess like
38:36
the way he's framing all of this, like it's hard to be rejected every
38:40
time I ask for reconciliation. But then he says, maybe I should try
38:45
harder. It's like, well, yeah, maybe you should. Maybe you
38:46
should put forth some action into getting couples therapy and getting counseling it right,
38:52
trying to work on yourself, because that's what Janelle wants. She wants change
38:57
from you specifically, but you are refusing to do that. You're being lazy.
39:00
And this is probably what he's done their entire marriage. Anytime they've gotten
39:06
in a fight or she's brought up something that bothers her, he says he'll
39:08
do the work, or he says that he'll change, or let's reconcile,
39:13
baby, Let's have a renaissance. I'll write you some poetry, make it
39:15
tingle down there a little bit, and forget about how terrible I'm treating you
39:20
and how I'm neglecting you in every aspect. I don't know, Like he
39:24
just is so disconnected, So I don't think he's sad by it. I
39:29
think he says he's sad, but I don't think there's real sadness there.
39:34
I'm going to disagree with you. I think that he does not want to
39:37
let her go. I think Cody Brown loves Janelle. I have maintained on
39:40
this podcast that she's the highest in value of all of his wives. Tots.
39:45
Yeah, and this is connected to his father and how his father felt
39:50
about Janelle and Janelle's mother, who his father ultimately married. I think that
39:54
Cody kind of gets a wistful look on his face, and he tries to
39:59
play it off by saying, I mean, I'm trying to be interested.
40:01
I'm trying to want to be with her. I'm trying to remember how to
40:06
love her. But when I'm like connecting with his energy, I think he
40:09
feels very sad. I think he feels the loss of Janelle, and I
40:14
think if he could, he would want her back. I don't think he
40:19
cares enough, though, to make substantial changes to the way that he's living.
40:22
He's not disciplined enough to give up something in order to get her,
40:25
and that's what Janelle is seeing and feeling. Yeah, And when you check
40:29
in and connect energetically with Janelle, she's so fucking over it. Oh.
40:32
I love that for her. She's like, I don't care, Go have
40:37
fun, do whatever you want. If you want to build a house,
40:38
that's fine too. I'm doing me. I'm taking care of me, and
40:42
there's no room in this apartment for you. Batch. I love that me
40:46
too. But I mean, if Cody really loved her and he was really
40:50
saddened by her, he would make the effort, and he just chooses not
40:52
to. So that's why I'm like, you don't really care, though,
40:55
Well, what would happen if he did make the effort in terms of raw
41:00
do you think if he started whining and dining Janelle, if he started to
41:04
go to weekly counseling sessions with her, if he started buying her flowers and
41:09
writing her poetry? How do we really think Robin would feel about that kind
41:14
of change in him? She'd be jealous. She'd be jealous for sure.
41:16
She'd be counting the hours that he's with her and then be like, Arian,
41:20
Saul, need you, It's been one day you need to come back
41:22
and give him a kiss good night before bad. Out of all of the
41:27
wives, she is most intimidated by Janelle yep, because Janelle sees right through
41:31
her yeah, and has since season one when she called her out for being
41:37
a perpetual damsel in distress, which is why Janelle is our queen. I
41:40
love Janelle. This leads us to the last segment, which is back in
41:45
Pirowan. We've got Mary driving there because she's got to take down two huge
41:52
old pine trees that are right at the front of her B and B.
41:57
And if she doesn't take them down, they threaten the entire of the B
42:00
and B. And so we kind of go into this history lesson about her
42:04
great grandmother Lizzie, who was probably in the presence of those trees. Yeah,
42:09
and so Mary has attached a lot of importance to the trees to the
42:15
house and she doesn't want to let it go. And this kind of turns
42:17
into this big analogy between the trees and her actual marriage, Like she's afraid
42:23
of what the B and B is going to look like without the trees.
42:27
She's afraid of like the emotional ramifications that come with removing the trees. And
42:31
what her ancestors might think about that. She's fearful of what's going to happen,
42:37
and she likens that to what's going to happen on the other side of
42:40
her divorce with Cody. So what did you think about this? I mean,
42:44
this whole segment was so dumb? Is it? Like very stupid?
42:46
I understand them, I understand the analogy, but I'm just like, how
42:52
many more episodes do we have to have of Mary contemplating why or why not
42:59
she should leave this marriage that doesn't even exist. Like Cody has not cared
43:04
for her in many years. He literally, she literally said last episode that
43:08
he told her, I do not care, like I don't want to insert
43:10
myself in your life or vagina or you're for China. Ever, get he
43:16
literally does not care if she lives or dies. He doesn't care where she's
43:20
at. She's the one wife that he doesn't care if she lives an independent
43:23
life away from him. He would prefer that actually, And so I'm just
43:29
tired of seeing this drawn out of Mary just being like, I don't know,
43:35
I don't know if I want to leave him, It's gonna be hard.
43:37
And then this whole tree thing like, I don't know what it's gonna
43:39
look like, it's gonna be better, It's anything is better than what you
43:43
are living right now. I know you think that you're happy right now,
43:46
and like you're a strong, independent woman and you can handle everything, but
43:51
like you're sad and you're missing this intimacy. You're missing a partner, and
43:54
that's totally fine, and you deserve to be happy with somebody who actually values
44:00
you and values what you bring to the table and loves you for you.
44:04
But like, I'm just tired of seeing you just being this weird limbo.
44:07
It's so annoying. It is annoying. I think that I was moved,
44:15
I guess, as she began to rehash once again what happened on their anniversary
44:19
night, when he finally tells her, you know, in no uncertain terms,
44:22
that is just never ever going to happen, when she says, like,
44:25
I understand that we're not the same people that we were when we got
44:29
married, and then of course the nineteen ninety wedding footage again, oh my
44:32
god, over again, Like I understand we're not the same people. I
44:36
get that there's a lot that has happened, but why can't we be curious
44:39
about the people that we are now, Like, I want to get to
44:43
know that the person you are right now. I want you to get to
44:45
know me for who I am, and maybe we can build on that.
44:49
I loved that. That sounds so beautiful and vulnerable. And this is when
44:52
he says, it's never going to happen. I don't want to see myself.
44:55
I'm not curious about your life, bitch. I'm not curious about anything
44:59
about I'm never going to be which crushed her. And as you said,
45:04
then she's talking about what is she going to do. She's got her choices.
45:07
She can stick around, be a part of the family, but not
45:10
a wife. She can terminate altogether. And I forget what the third choices
45:15
because at this point I'm like unconscious and I just can't go on. Be
45:20
a choice. I cannot go on. But then she's like, and he
45:23
sucks screw him or whatever she says. Yeah, She's like, he's not
45:28
worth it, He's not worth it, so screw him. Yeah. So
45:30
okay, I'm like, all right, So we're making progress. That means
45:32
we are probably barreling toward You're absolutely right run episode twelve. So episode fourteen.
45:38
They're going to be out on Coyote Pass Mary, Robin and Cody and
45:44
Mary with some fire in her belly. He's going to tell them like I
45:46
deserve more, I should not have to put up with this, and she's
45:50
going to break up with Cody and Robin. She's making a decision finally,
45:54
And we also have the preview for next week. We see Janelle all sitting
46:00
down and saying that she is fighting hard to establish her estate. Yeah.
46:07
I really really want to know more about this. Yes, me too.
46:10
I want to know about the coins. I want to know about what she's
46:14
asking for from Cody and Robin, because again, she has invested a lot
46:17
of money into their home and into the family fund. I'm sure she funneled
46:22
all of her TLC money into that family fund. She was left with nothing,
46:25
So I really want to know what her negotiation points are. Yes,
46:29
and I worry that they're not going to show us or tell us. It's
46:32
going to be vague ambiguities. It'd be nice if they could be honest,
46:37
because she said in this episode that Cody and Robin haven't contributed dick to her
46:43
shit. Meanwhile, everybody's having to pool money for Christine's down payment on her
46:46
house and Mary and all this in Robin's house, like nobody's helping finance Janelle's
46:52
shit. So I want them to get into that, but I know they're
46:54
not going to. You know, they're probably not going to. And as
46:57
we discussed last week, Cody is probably thinking, well, you had eighty
47:00
four thousand dollars, you sunk it into the fifth Wheel, which is a
47:04
stupid investment, and so that was the money that we could have put toward
47:07
whatever house you want, which doesn't cause him to come out of his pocket
47:10
at all. And one of the reasons he's probably annoyed with her is because
47:15
he thinks that eighty four thousand dollars should have gone into the family fund.
47:19
Yeah, and he should have been able to draw from it, yeah,
47:21
because he's an unspeakable lout and he needs more Dickenzie and village, more to
47:25
concianthologists, first wife, and many bikes and painting pee everything. So also
47:32
in the preview, we see Christine talking about how she comes into a new
47:37
relationship with a lot of baggage, and so it sounds like David WOOLLI we've
47:43
met David Wooly or we're about to meet David Wooly. We've got Cody out
47:47
on the land with some dumb mail, toxic in cell, fucking friend again
47:54
that I'm gonna have to listen to Jesus christ. We see Janelle tell Christine
48:00
that she doesn't miss Cody or Robin and that she hasn't spoken to Mary in
48:05
a year. Love it. And then we see Cody saying that nobody's going
48:07
to split him and Robin apart. Mm hmmm, because that's in the context
48:12
of the estate of the Estates, which makes me wonder if it's in the
48:15
context of money. M hmmm. Probably, And Janelle is asking for some
48:21
kind of money or for them to I don't know, dip into their home,
48:24
because we know there's the rumor that they dipped into their home equity and
48:28
paid her out one twenty to one hundred and forty thousand dollars. I'm sorry,
48:30
I repeat myself all the time, but just in case you're just tuning
48:34
in, there's this rumor that they paid her out, and maybe this is
48:37
the start of that kind of a conversation. And Colda's said, well,
48:40
you're not gonna split up me and my wife. You're not going to take
48:44
from our established home that's messed up well, And like if you think about
48:49
million years ago, we did an episode this was like towards the beginning of
48:53
our podcast, probably over a year ago, where I went through the Flagstaff
48:59
County records and looked up the deeds for all of these plots of land to
49:02
see whose names are on what. Cody and Robin are always paired together,
49:07
whereas like Janelle and Mary will be on one to like by themselves, Christine
49:10
will be on another. Like, so the three OG wives have always been
49:15
willing to like put their names separately on things. But it seems like Robin
49:19
always has to be tied to Cody, especially financially. And I know because
49:22
they're legally married too, So I wonder if that's got something to do with
49:27
him saying you're never gonna split us up, Like, yeah, it's finances.
49:30
But like Robin is not going to be willing to put her name on
49:34
some plot of land to like help Janelle out or vice vers or take her
49:37
name off a plot of right so that Janelle can own it outright, right,
49:40
I wonder. I bet we're overthinking it. I bet it's something really
49:44
stupid and probably nobody can destroy our love. Nobody cares you can have each
49:51
other for real? Well, are there any final thoughts you had about this
49:53
episode? So a lot. I've watched it again today. I watched it
49:59
three, like every time. It's just like so much filler, and its
50:05
just I know they're trying to test it out and test the waters to see
50:07
if people are interested in McKelty and Tony's dumb life. Nobody is no.
50:12
Absolutely, the answer is no, nobody is. Nobody wants that. Nobody's
50:15
even interested in like Christine's single life and her birthday part, Like that's great,
50:19
but like if you're not talking about Cody or like the divorce or what's
50:22
happening with that, Like I don't really care. I'm interested in Christine and
50:25
David's romantic journey. Well, I mean I'm very interested. Yeah, I'm
50:30
very interested in Janelle maybe finding a man, because I think it was last
50:34
week we talked about rumors that she's been seen around flag Staff and at Christine's
50:37
wedding with an unknown man, Like I'm totally here for that, bitch.
50:40
I don't care for that, and with Mary too, for her to have
50:44
a new relationship and or like redesign the B and B. Like, I
50:47
kind of dig that because that B and B. How that interior designer Blair
50:52
stands in the middle of that being the designs one call it out is crazy
50:58
to me, But I would be I would even be interested in that,
51:01
so much more than Cody and Robin and their Maudlin children, and so much
51:07
more than Tony and mckelte and even Aspen and Mitch. I mean, yeah,
51:13
I don't really care. Even Gwen, I don't care. No.
51:15
I like Gabe and Garrison. I want to see what's going on with them.
51:16
They need to have a healing arc. I'd like to watch that.
51:21
But yeah, I'm interested in the context of like a spinoff, like after
51:24
these seasons are done and we get through all of these divorces, which we're
51:28
probably not going to get to like the rest of the divorces until twenty thirty
51:31
New decade, we'll be getting there. Yeah, think we're so behind on
51:35
everything, Like I just want them to like wrap up the Sister Wides franchise
51:38
like they're already planning to do. But there it's a cash cow, so
51:42
they're just gonna milk it for however long they can because they know, this
51:45
season has got so many viewers, more than they've ever had in a decade,
51:51
so they're just getting all them, which is such leverage for TLC to
51:57
put Cody and Robin over a barrel and to make them show up for a
52:01
tell all and sit in the room with the other wives, and to answer
52:05
hard questions like do you want to continue to have this stream of revenues that
52:08
you can continue to get your Dekenzian village, then you need to show up.
52:14
And if you do not show up to the reunion or to the tel
52:16
all, if you walk off, you forfeit the entire season of wages.
52:21
Yes, or fifty percent of the season's wages. Oh my god, that'd
52:23
be so he would be there with bells on Honey. I forgot to say
52:29
that. In that Mormonism Live episode, he somebody asked Cody if he was
52:34
interested in courting another wife, and Cody said, no, I'm not going
52:37
to answer that because that's a spoiler, and I'll let the network handle it.
52:42
I thought he already made a statement like via People dot Com or something
52:45
that he's he's a monogamist, he's not interested in other wives. I don't
52:47
know, but that's what he said on that video. Though Oh interesting,
52:52
he said spoiler. I won't get into any of that. They're like,
52:54
you can't even tell us though. If you're interested in courting another wife and
52:57
he's like, no, spoiler, I'll let tails handle. He's not.
53:00
He's a monogamist, and Robin would never let him. No, never,
53:05
never never. I would like to conclude this podcast by apologizing for being late.
53:09
We are usually a day earlier than this, but as it turns out,
53:15
I lost one of my very best friends on Sunday night. Her name
53:21
was Eleanique. I mentioned this because we had a podcast together and I've known
53:24
her for many years. She was like the quintessence of beauty and grace and
53:32
humor and kindness. Just such a down chick, and she was forty seven
53:38
years old. She died of metastatic breast cancer. She loved The Sister Wives.
53:44
Bitch would she would talk match it about Cody Brown. We would just
53:47
look at his picture and laugh together. I don't know if she ever listens
53:52
to our podcast because it's only been for the last year, but she knew
53:54
I was doing it and she was one hundred percent into it. She loved
53:59
it. She's just a light in this world and I just want to dedicate
54:04
this episode to my dear friend Eleani and wish her well on the next journey
54:09
in her celestial kingdom wherever that is. Rest in peace, Elenique. She
54:15
was a really lovely person, or a real one, my friend, and
54:19
that is all I wanted to say. Now, is there anything else we
54:22
need to say to these beautiful raccoon's beatress? Well, if you love our
54:25
podcast, I sure hope that you give us a glowing five star review on
54:30
your favorite podcast platform. It really helps us grow the pod. Thank you
54:32
so much. And until next time, which will be later this week,
54:36
we're going to come back to talk about Blackville and also nine to Date Fiance.
54:39
I watched that episode. I was texting you, I'm like, this
54:44
is crazy. We're going to be back to talk about that later this week.
54:46
Until then, never forget, we love you very much and peace outline like us
