3:35
Speaker 1: into our recap, Beatrice did you have any takeaways after
3:39
Speaker 1: watching this episode.
3:41
Speaker 3: The only takeaway I have is that I want to
3:42
Speaker 3: go to Alaska me too.
3:44
Speaker 2: It looks so beautiful.
3:45
Speaker 1: Yes, it's literally perfect.
3:47
Speaker 2: I want to live there if it wasn't so expensive.
3:49
Speaker 1: Oh.
3:50
Speaker 3: Also, when they were grocery shopping, I was kind of
3:52
Speaker 3: eyeballing some of the prices at the grocery store, I know.
3:55
Speaker 3: And I'm pissed off me too about this hyperinflation because
3:59
Speaker 3: this is a lot back in twenty fifteen, twenty sixteen, whatever,
4:03
Speaker 3: and it's already a higher cost of living. But even
4:05
Speaker 3: back then, yep, the prices were cheaper than what it
4:08
Speaker 3: is right now.
4:09
Speaker 1: I know. I was just at the croker. We just
4:12
Speaker 1: wanted to get some stuff for sandwiches, some deli meats,
4:16
Speaker 1: some bread, Like the bread is so expensive. And now
4:20
Speaker 1: what these companies are doing is selling mini loafs. Yeah,
4:24
Speaker 1: it's a half loaf for the same price as I
4:27
Speaker 1: used to pay for a full loaf. And the size
4:30
Speaker 1: of the bread pieces, the slices of bread, they're manature, Like,
4:33
Speaker 1: what is happening here? Do we not have any consumer
4:37
Speaker 1: advocacy in this country?
4:39
Speaker 3: Now?
4:39
Speaker 1: How come this is happening? It makes me have so
4:43
Speaker 1: much rage.
4:44
Speaker 3: We are not angry enough collective enough.
4:48
Speaker 1: And yes I noticed the prices as well. I've also
4:51
Speaker 1: been to that grocery store. Really, I've also been to
4:54
Speaker 1: that town. We stayed at a hotel called the al Yeskah,
4:57
Speaker 1: my god, so I was real familiar with it. But
4:59
Speaker 1: that's out to Girdwood was like looking at portraiture. Yes,
5:04
Speaker 1: like this can't be actual real life.
5:07
Speaker 3: Literally my dream.
5:08
Speaker 1: Alaska is gorgeous. And that's my takeaway too. Yeah, all right,
5:11
Speaker 1: without further ado, let's get into today's recap of Sister
5:16
Speaker 1: Wives Season nine, episode eleven, and to Totti.
5:20
Speaker 2: A boy or a girl?
5:23
Speaker 3: Oh, because we're going to center the whole episode around
5:26
Speaker 3: Robin and co and their baby gender reveal. But we
5:30
Speaker 3: have the whole family preparing for their trip to Alaska.
5:33
Speaker 3: The only one that's not able to make it is Hunter,
5:36
Speaker 3: who is at some Air Force academy or something in
5:39
Speaker 3: Nevada or whatever. And that's great for him, but everybody
5:43
Speaker 3: else in the family is Colorado.
5:44
Speaker 2: But is it I don't know the.
5:46
Speaker 1: Air Force academy. Well I don't know Colorado.
5:49
Speaker 2: Do you think I know shit about shit?
5:50
Speaker 1: Well, I mean, your wife's father went to the Air
5:53
Speaker 1: Force Academy.
5:54
Speaker 3: And aren't there multiple Air Force academies. Don't think there's
5:57
Speaker 3: literally just one. I think it's the one in Colorado
5:59
Speaker 3: Spring Goddamn right, Sorry, I'm not an expert anyway. So
6:04
Speaker 3: Hunter's at the Air Force Academy. Everybody's getting ready for
6:07
Speaker 3: their trip to Alaska. Everyone is going to be there
6:10
Speaker 3: except for him, so including Logan and his significant other, Michelle,
6:15
Speaker 3: and Maddie and Caleb. Caleb has to work, so he's
6:19
Speaker 3: only going to be there for a couple of days,
6:20
Speaker 3: but he's gonna fly in and meet the family as
6:23
Speaker 3: Maddie's significant other, even though the family kind of knows
6:25
Speaker 3: him already because he's associated with the family. But not
6:29
Speaker 3: much to really go over. At the beginning of this episode,
6:32
Speaker 3: everybody's packing, everybody's chaotic and unorganized.
6:35
Speaker 2: As per usual.
6:37
Speaker 3: But we have like a little segment with Janelle kind
6:39
Speaker 3: of talking about Maddie and Caleb and like how they
6:42
Speaker 3: first met and when they first met, Maddie was underage
6:46
Speaker 3: and allegedly Caleb wasn't interested in her because she was
6:49
Speaker 3: a minor and sure, Jen, but Maddie was obviously hardcore
6:55
Speaker 3: flirting with him even though she was underage, but now
6:59
Speaker 3: she's so it's fine.
7:01
Speaker 1: Right, So he was waiting for her to become legal allegedly.
7:05
Speaker 1: But also I thought that Mattie said in this episode
7:08
Speaker 1: that originally she didn't like Caleb. Yeah, they were not friends,
7:13
Speaker 1: but then when you hear Janelle talk about it, it's like, no,
7:16
Speaker 1: she was flirting with him from the very beginning.
7:18
Speaker 3: Yeah, And according to Janelle, Caleb was the one that
7:21
Speaker 3: brushed Mattie off because she was too young. Yep, but
7:24
Speaker 3: Mattie's saying that she was the one that was like, no,
7:27
Speaker 3: it wasn't interested at all.
7:29
Speaker 1: I don't believe it.
7:30
Speaker 2: Okay, whatever press.
7:31
Speaker 3: Acts we got to say to kind of blur the
7:34
Speaker 3: lines of your guys' age gap, like whatever, okay. And
7:39
Speaker 3: then we also have Cody and Robin going to get
7:42
Speaker 3: their baby ultrasound before everybody leaves for Alaska, because they
7:45
Speaker 3: plan to tell everybody it's a big surprise, reveal what
7:48
Speaker 3: the gender of the baby is.
7:50
Speaker 2: And honestly, like, I don't I.
7:51
Speaker 1: Don't care, nobody cares.
7:53
Speaker 2: I really don't care at all.
7:55
Speaker 3: And so then when they arrive in Alaska, they rented
7:57
Speaker 3: this big house. I guess it was like a multiple
8:01
Speaker 3: house rental or something, but they rented the whole thing
8:03
Speaker 3: because they have a million people. Logan has Michelle there.
8:07
Speaker 3: He's a little bit worried about her because she comes
8:09
Speaker 3: from a very small family and this is a very
8:12
Speaker 3: large family and it's a bit overwhelming. So he's just
8:15
Speaker 3: trying his best to make sure that she's comfortable.
8:17
Speaker 2: And we love that.
8:18
Speaker 1: We love it a lot. At some point, Janelle kind
8:20
Speaker 1: of talks about how cool it is to see Logan
8:23
Speaker 1: in a romantic relationshipeah, just how he's taking care of
8:27
Speaker 1: Michelle and how he's so sweet, and it really was
8:30
Speaker 1: cool to see and to know that they go on
8:33
Speaker 1: to get married and they've been together all these years.
8:36
Speaker 1: That's pretty special.
8:37
Speaker 3: That's what I really liked about It was like, you know,
8:39
Speaker 3: this is the first time we're really introduced to Michelle
8:42
Speaker 3: or introduced to a girlfriend of Logan's, and it is
8:44
Speaker 3: the girl that he ends up marrying. And same thing
8:46
Speaker 3: with Maddie, like we get introduced to her significant other
8:49
Speaker 3: and she ends up marrying him and having a bunch
8:51
Speaker 3: of kids. Like I do love that for them. I
8:53
Speaker 3: think it's really cute as well. And then when we're
8:56
Speaker 3: at the Alaskan rental. You know, everybody's unpacking or whatever
9:00
Speaker 3: and getting settled. We have this little tiff between Solomon,
9:04
Speaker 3: who's like a three year old, I don't know. He
9:08
Speaker 3: bawls his hand into a fist and I think he
9:11
Speaker 3: like tries to hit one of the kids or something.
9:15
Speaker 3: This pisses Garrison off because he's a parentified child, I think,
9:19
Speaker 3: and he tries to reprimand Solomon, but he does it
9:25
Speaker 3: poorly because he's also a child. And then the parents
9:28
Speaker 3: get super pissed off at Garrison because you know you're
9:32
Speaker 3: a child, don't act like a parent. What are you doing?
9:35
Speaker 1: Oh my god, this made me so angry. Can't we
9:38
Speaker 1: just stop here for a moment? Yep? Because who are
9:41
Speaker 1: you fooling? You have parentified all of your children. And
9:46
Speaker 1: Cody's like, you don't presume to tell me, Garrison, how
9:51
Speaker 1: to correct my own child. And he's like, I'm just
9:53
Speaker 1: trying to advise you. That's yeah, Oh the audacity. But like,
9:57
Speaker 1: Cody's your dad, so I get it. Are we trying
10:00
Speaker 1: to pretend that you haven't put these kids in this
10:03
Speaker 1: position the entire time? And after we watched mckelte's interview,
10:08
Speaker 1: the most recent interview with cults to consciousness. She talks
10:12
Speaker 1: a lot about how she was out here changing diapers
10:15
Speaker 1: her siblings diapers when she was four years old. So
10:19
Speaker 1: it's absolutely in alignment with the way they've conducted themselves
10:23
Speaker 1: as parents to have Garrison out here trying to parent
10:25
Speaker 1: Solomon inappropriately. Yes, yeah, and he shouldn't be doing it
10:29
Speaker 1: the way that he's doing it, of course, but like
10:31
Speaker 1: can you blame him? Because where are you exactly?
10:34
Speaker 3: And my thing that pissed me off about it was
10:36
Speaker 3: like there was no accountability for the parents in acknowledging
10:40
Speaker 3: that they made their older kids PARENTI like, parent all
10:43
Speaker 3: of the younger kids. There was absolutely none of that.
10:46
Speaker 3: They were just saying like, well, we don't really like
10:48
Speaker 3: it when the older kids try to parent the young
10:51
Speaker 3: since like, what.
10:52
Speaker 2: Do you mean?
10:53
Speaker 1: Yeah, just last season was an Aspen taking care of
10:57
Speaker 1: truly who had a kidney infection, Like that's the thing.
11:00
Speaker 1: Cody was on the grill burning steaks and couldn't give
11:03
Speaker 1: a shit, Like your kids are still even in this episode,
11:06
Speaker 1: Logan is still getting all the kids together and being
11:10
Speaker 1: a parent more than these five.
11:12
Speaker 3: I was just about to say that, like Logan straight
11:14
Speaker 3: up was acting like a sixth parent in front of
11:17
Speaker 3: everybody this entire trip, like he's organizing everything. But it's
11:21
Speaker 3: okay when he does it, and it's okay when Aspen
11:23
Speaker 3: does it because they do it the right way right
11:26
Speaker 3: and they've been parentified since they were wee. But when
11:29
Speaker 3: Garrison does it and again he like you said, he
11:32
Speaker 3: did it kind of poorly because he's a teenager, then
11:35
Speaker 3: he gets reprimanded.
11:36
Speaker 1: But that kind of goes back to our ongoing conversation
11:39
Speaker 1: about how it really does feel like they target Garrison,
11:44
Speaker 1: and it also feels like Garrison acts out maybe because
11:48
Speaker 1: of that, Like he's always butting heads in particular with Cody,
11:51
Speaker 1: and I'm like, what's what's really going on here? Because
11:55
Speaker 1: of course, in later seasons, Garrison is the one who
11:58
Speaker 1: calls Robin and who kind of front's Robin about how
12:01
Speaker 1: she is stealing all of Cody's time, et cetera. He
12:05
Speaker 1: plays a big role in calling out what's happening in
12:08
Speaker 1: the family, and you can kind of see him agitating
12:12
Speaker 1: now at this younger age, and I just feel like,
12:14
Speaker 1: I feel bad because I can see how Cody focused
12:19
Speaker 1: him in a way that was focused on him in
12:21
Speaker 1: a way that wasn't necessarily appropriate, almost like he felt
12:26
Speaker 1: like Garrison challenged him personally, do you know what I mean?
12:30
Speaker 3: And he probably did. I mean, because that's how kids
12:32
Speaker 3: are with your parents, Like your kids are supposed to
12:35
Speaker 3: kind of challenge you.
12:36
Speaker 1: As a parent, But he's taking it personally.
12:40
Speaker 3: And I think that's exactly what's happening here. And like
12:42
Speaker 3: I think with Garrison, the other aspect is that he
12:45
Speaker 3: does tend to be seen or viewed as the kid
12:49
Speaker 3: that has anger issues or like has more of like
12:52
Speaker 3: a short fuse. And so I think that triggers maybe Cody,
12:56
Speaker 3: maybe triggers Mary a bit, triggers some of these parents
13:00
Speaker 3: because they don't like that and they don't want to
13:02
Speaker 3: see a kid act out.
13:03
Speaker 1: But it's like, are you asking yourself why?
13:07
Speaker 3: And that's what kind of pisses me off about it,
13:08
Speaker 3: because you can tell like there's something going on with Garrison,
13:12
Speaker 3: and I don't want to, like, you know, paint my
13:15
Speaker 3: own perspective on his mental health struggles here, because I
13:19
Speaker 3: obviously am not Garrison, and I don't know what he
13:21
Speaker 3: was going through this time. I can just relate to
13:23
Speaker 3: it because I was a kid that used to act
13:25
Speaker 3: out a bit too, and I used to be pretty angry,
13:28
Speaker 3: and even as an adult, like I still struggle with
13:30
Speaker 3: those aspects because you know, I didn't learn how to
13:33
Speaker 3: like regulate my emotions because I didn't grow up in
13:36
Speaker 3: a house where I learned how to do that. And
13:38
Speaker 3: when you grow up in a house like this with
13:39
Speaker 3: a million fucking kids and no parents around to help
13:42
Speaker 3: you learn how to emotionally regulate, like you're gonna be
13:47
Speaker 3: kind of pent up. So I don't know, I just
13:49
Speaker 3: felt bad for Garrison. I also feel bad that these
13:52
Speaker 3: are the moments that are memorialized for him. It actually
13:55
Speaker 3: really bothers me a bit, like watching these back and
13:58
Speaker 3: I just don't like.
14:00
Speaker 1: It, agreed at all.
14:02
Speaker 3: I also felt like they were getting mad at him
14:05
Speaker 3: because he was targeting Solomon, which is Robin's kid, And
14:09
Speaker 3: how dare anybody target my sweet baby vampire child.
14:13
Speaker 1: I'm sorry. Well, and you do have to wonder though,
14:17
Speaker 1: like whether there's some jealousy there with Garrison, Yeah, because
14:21
Speaker 1: he's seeing in these moments how much Cody prefers not
14:27
Speaker 1: just Robin but her kids who he just adopted, and
14:31
Speaker 1: also Solomon, who is his bio child. And I think
14:34
Speaker 1: Garrison is probably a paternally neglected son, and here Cody
14:40
Speaker 1: is just doting on King Solomon with his cherubic, beautiful,
14:44
Speaker 1: little three year old behaviors and everything. And I'm sure
14:48
Speaker 1: there is some jealousy for Garrison, but like, okay, Janelle,
14:52
Speaker 1: instead of like always correcting him and lecturing him like
14:56
Speaker 1: you're supposed to be his soft place to land, I
15:00
Speaker 1: just wish there was more context, more understanding, and maybe
15:03
Speaker 1: behind the scenes Janelle was having those conversations made Garrison
15:07
Speaker 1: because certainly when he becomes an adult and he buys
15:10
Speaker 1: his own place, he makes a spot in his backyard
15:12
Speaker 1: for Janelle to have a garden. He loves his mother.
15:15
Speaker 1: He's protective of his mother. So I'm hoping that Janelle
15:18
Speaker 1: is actually having a dialogue with him about this stuff
15:22
Speaker 1: and yeah, saying, hey, I understand why you feel like
15:24
Speaker 1: you need to step in, but like it would be
15:27
Speaker 1: great if you could also show the audience that because,
15:30
Speaker 1: like you say, like this is really all we ever
15:31
Speaker 1: get from Garrison, his fights with Gabe, like his tantrums,
15:35
Speaker 1: his anger issues. Yep, nobody ever talks about why they
15:40
Speaker 1: might be, like why we have these issues?
15:43
Speaker 3: Yeah, and that's the thing that's hard for me is like,
15:45
Speaker 3: cause I just don't know if those kinds of conversations
15:47
Speaker 3: are really happening behind the scenes. If Janelle or any
15:50
Speaker 3: of the family is sitting down with Garrison and being okay,
15:53
Speaker 3: you've been acted up a bit, Are you okay? Is
15:56
Speaker 3: there anything that you want to talk about?
15:58
Speaker 2: Like, we're here for you. I think it's.
15:59
Speaker 3: Hard for parents to do that sometimes because teenagehood is
16:02
Speaker 3: difficult for everybody around, and like there's a lot of
16:05
Speaker 3: emotions and a lot of ridiculousness or whatever. But I
16:09
Speaker 3: just I don't know. I felt bad for Garrison. I've
16:12
Speaker 3: been a Garrison and so I just it sucks that
16:16
Speaker 3: this is a scene that is here forever.
16:19
Speaker 2: It just bothers me.
16:21
Speaker 1: You just wish you could go back in time and
16:24
Speaker 1: give him a hug yeah, and.
16:25
Speaker 2: Just keep on it.
16:27
Speaker 1: He does need it and can tell he needs it.
16:28
Speaker 2: Yeah, And it just sucks.
16:30
Speaker 3: And so then the next day or whatever, the family
16:32
Speaker 3: goes out for breakfast, and I just can't imagine being
16:36
Speaker 3: like in a small town in Alaska and having twenty
16:39
Speaker 3: five people want to come home for breakfast. I would
16:43
Speaker 3: be so stressed. If I was working at a restaurant
16:45
Speaker 3: and I saw the Browns coming in, and then they
16:48
Speaker 3: go grocery shopping because they want to you know, obviously
16:52
Speaker 3: eat at home for the majority of the time because
16:54
Speaker 3: eating out is not practical for this large of a family.
16:57
Speaker 3: So they have twenty four people, that's twenty four meal
17:00
Speaker 3: for eight days. And I'm confused because at one point,
17:03
Speaker 3: like Logan says that they're going to be there for
17:05
Speaker 3: fourteen days with all these people, but then when they
17:08
Speaker 3: go grocery shopping, it's only eight days, so I don't
17:10
Speaker 3: know what that means. But they're at the fred Meyer,
17:13
Speaker 3: they're going grocery shopping. They have stupidly bring the entire
17:17
Speaker 3: family with them, which I'm just like, why would you
17:19
Speaker 3: do that. I'm already over stimulated.
17:21
Speaker 1: To send a couple of the wives for.
17:23
Speaker 2: Real, And then it's much more organized.
17:25
Speaker 3: But they go shopping, and everybody's playing bet placing bets
17:28
Speaker 3: on how much the grocery bill is going to be
17:31
Speaker 3: a lot of the older parentified children are like, we
17:34
Speaker 3: got way too much fucking food, Like we don't need
17:36
Speaker 3: all of this.
17:36
Speaker 2: I don't know what we're doing.
17:38
Speaker 3: But ultimately they end up at the end paying over
17:42
Speaker 3: twenty eight hundred dollars for their groceries.
17:44
Speaker 2: And again, I'm just thinking that if this was.
17:46
Speaker 1: In today's oh my god.
17:48
Speaker 3: It would be like six thousand dollars, six or seven
17:50
Speaker 3: thousand dollars like at least. And it just pisses me
17:54
Speaker 3: off so fucking bad because there's literally no reason for
17:58
Speaker 3: our groceries to be this expensive.
18:00
Speaker 1: You're right, I think these corporations are gouging us. Yeah,
18:04
Speaker 1: like when there's an emergency, like a national emergency, where
18:07
Speaker 1: there's whether there's like a state emergency or hurricane or whatever.
18:11
Speaker 1: Like if a gas station gouges and raises their prices
18:14
Speaker 1: because people need to get gas, like that's an offense,
18:18
Speaker 1: Like you can be fine, like the government will go
18:20
Speaker 1: after your ass. And I'm just wondering when the government
18:25
Speaker 1: is going to go after the ass of all of
18:27
Speaker 1: these corporations. Fucking freedom, labe, dude. I was looking at
18:31
Speaker 1: I know, I was looking at Dorito's at Groger when
18:33
Speaker 1: we're doing sandwiches and stuff like that. The bags are
18:36
Speaker 1: so much smaller, and of course you can't see into
18:39
Speaker 1: them because if you were to see into them, you
18:41
Speaker 1: would see maybe twenty five percent of the bag is
18:43
Speaker 1: filled with chips, like Why isn't there some kind of
18:46
Speaker 1: regulation where companies can't fucking do this to you. I
18:49
Speaker 1: was watching somebody on YouTube, and let's just go on
18:52
Speaker 1: a tangent here, but I was watching somebody on YouTube
18:55
Speaker 1: talk about how gen Z is actually the disruptor for
19:00
Speaker 1: a lot of this because unlike my generation Gen X
19:04
Speaker 1: and even a lot of the millennials, and certainly there's
19:06
Speaker 1: no boomers out here doing this, gen Z will call
19:09
Speaker 1: your company out. They will open your bag of Gurrito's
19:12
Speaker 1: on TikTok and they will pour it out and show
19:14
Speaker 1: that there's only sixteen chips in that entire bag, and
19:17
Speaker 1: they will shame these companies. And it's actually having a
19:21
Speaker 1: big impact good on a lot of them. Like McDonald's
19:24
Speaker 1: has been down in terms of their profits, Wendy's sits down,
19:28
Speaker 1: Burger King is down them all, but fast food like
19:31
Speaker 1: Chick fil A, fast food like In and Out, also Chili's,
19:36
Speaker 1: they actually are increasing in profitability because they are not
19:39
Speaker 1: trying to gouge everybody. Like, I just don't understand. I
19:43
Speaker 1: just don't like, how do you stop this? Now? There
19:46
Speaker 1: is some of it that is actual legitimate inflammation, inflammation,
19:51
Speaker 1: economical inflammation, and inflation due to COVID and printing money
19:56
Speaker 1: on demand. Yeah, there's going to be a correction to that.
19:58
Speaker 1: But like, we need some help out here. We see
20:01
Speaker 1: all these billionaires just enriching themselves in fucking data centers, Like,
20:05
Speaker 1: can you just help them? I gotta stop. This is
20:08
Speaker 1: I'm gonna it is really awful.
20:11
Speaker 2: It's horrible.
20:12
Speaker 1: I've never seen anything like this in all of my life.
20:14
Speaker 1: And I've been through like the seventies, gas shortages, I've
20:18
Speaker 1: been through inflation in the nineties, interest rates that were
20:21
Speaker 1: sixteen percent for home buying. Like, I've seen a lot
20:23
Speaker 1: of shit, but I ain't never seen this shit.
20:25
Speaker 3: No, And it's fucking bullshit. And it doesn't seem like
20:27
Speaker 3: there's any like relief.
20:31
Speaker 1: Any end in sight, like any plan. Nobody's even talking
20:35
Speaker 1: about it in our government, I know, And honestly, I
20:38
Speaker 1: don't think it matters what side of the aisle you prefer.
20:41
Speaker 1: None of them are talking about it, and they're talking
20:43
Speaker 1: about their pet fucking interests and nobody cares about actual Americans.
20:47
Speaker 1: And it's really really infuriating. And say, bitch, I was
20:52
Speaker 1: looking at those prices too. It was like two ninety
20:54
Speaker 1: nine for like peanut butter or something. I'm like, oh,
20:56
Speaker 1: you know what, fucking world.
20:58
Speaker 3: And a dozen of eggs was like three bucks, and
21:00
Speaker 3: I'm like, what the fuck is going on in Alaska?
21:03
Speaker 1: So that's ninety nine cents in Texas exactly the way
21:06
Speaker 1: that it ought to be.
21:07
Speaker 3: Like, come on, I just don't understand. It just pisses beyond.
21:10
Speaker 1: The names on the side of my head.
21:13
Speaker 3: I wonder if we have any international raccoons or prices
21:16
Speaker 3: just as insane over there, or is it just Americans
21:18
Speaker 3: that are getting aspucked.
21:20
Speaker 1: I think people around the world are getting as fucked.
21:23
Speaker 1: I think because it's a global elite society. Yeah, that's
21:26
Speaker 1: bending a silver and throws back to Cody Brown's sister.
21:34
Speaker 1: Sorry about that, guys, I'm.
21:35
Speaker 3: Just fucking pissed off about you. So then the family
21:38
Speaker 3: goes panning for gold, and maybe.
21:39
Speaker 1: We need to do that so that way we can
21:41
Speaker 1: maybe we can sell some gold or something like that. Geez, Curney.
21:47
Speaker 2: They go panning for gold.
21:49
Speaker 3: It's fun or whatever, and then the family does a
21:52
Speaker 3: little competition to see who got the most gold. Of
21:55
Speaker 3: course it's Garrison because he's the goat, and he got
21:58
Speaker 3: like ninety dollars worth of.
22:00
Speaker 1: But did you hear Robin say, oh my gosh, I'm
22:02
Speaker 1: gonna have so much fun today. I love gold. Yes,
22:05
Speaker 1: she's like, oh okay, she's got champagne tastes this woman,
22:10
Speaker 1: and when she enters the family, she's got a beer budget.
22:12
Speaker 3: Yep.
22:12
Speaker 1: But now we're in twenty fifteen, we're going into twenty sixteen,
22:16
Speaker 1: she's starting to siphon off the money and she wants
22:19
Speaker 1: to collect her gold.
22:20
Speaker 3: And I think it's funny that that's like the one
22:22
Speaker 3: activity that she participated in because when they go hiking later,
22:26
Speaker 3: she's at home.
22:26
Speaker 1: Yeah, she's pregnant. I can't do it.
22:29
Speaker 3: I can't do it, but I can pan for gold though.
22:32
Speaker 3: I want a new gold ring, please and thank you.
22:35
Speaker 3: And while they're panning for gold, they do this like
22:37
Speaker 3: I think it was the ham Trail or something like that,
22:41
Speaker 3: where they're in that little metal thing and Christine's screaming
22:45
Speaker 3: a lot.
22:46
Speaker 1: Christine was screaming all episode.
22:48
Speaker 2: I just had to mention it because it was really annoying.
22:50
Speaker 1: Screaming on the couch, talking about how she was screaming
22:53
Speaker 1: on the cage and I'm like, why are you screaming
22:55
Speaker 1: all the time? And maybe I'm neurospicy and I don't
22:58
Speaker 1: know it, but I'm just like, somebody, shut this pitch up.
23:01
Speaker 1: I understand you're excited, and I understand you're happy, but like,
23:04
Speaker 1: can you just stop screaming all the time. Some people
23:07
Speaker 1: can't handle decibels well.
23:10
Speaker 3: And for me, I was thinking about it, like, I
23:13
Speaker 3: feel like she's compensating for something. I feel like this
23:16
Speaker 3: isn't actually her real personality, Like she's kind of obnoxious
23:20
Speaker 3: in general. She's kind of a loud, boisterous person. But
23:22
Speaker 3: there's a difference between being a loud, boisterous person and
23:25
Speaker 3: somebody who is compensating and trying to be like fun
23:29
Speaker 3: and loud, like look at me, Ah, it's like, shut
23:32
Speaker 3: the fuck up. You don't have to act like that.
23:35
Speaker 3: I felt like she was compensating for Cody or something.
23:39
Speaker 3: But Cody, you can tell, is annoyed way.
23:42
Speaker 1: He's repulsed by it.
23:43
Speaker 2: He's disgusted, he is he hates her so much.
23:48
Speaker 1: And the more he hates her, the more she screams
23:51
Speaker 1: for attention.
23:51
Speaker 2: Yet that's what it is.
23:53
Speaker 1: Yes, the more he pulls away, the more she's like
23:55
Speaker 1: big and old and fun and I'm cheerleader for the family.
24:00
Speaker 1: I'm like Christine and like I'm a Leo.
24:03
Speaker 3: I like loud people. I like obnoxious people because I
24:07
Speaker 3: think it's fun.
24:08
Speaker 2: But she's annoying as fun.
24:11
Speaker 1: What I feel like you're saying something?
24:14
Speaker 2: No, me, what you're a Taurus.
24:16
Speaker 1: I don't you think I'm obnoxious?
24:18
Speaker 2: No, I don't think you're loud?
24:23
Speaker 1: Really yeah, okay, but anyway, go on.
24:27
Speaker 3: No, But like, I like loud people and I think
24:29
Speaker 3: they're fun, but like Christine was annoying me. So maybe
24:32
Speaker 3: I'm neurospicy too, But I'm just.
24:34
Speaker 2: Like, shut the fuck up.
24:36
Speaker 1: Seriously.
24:36
Speaker 3: You don't need to scream all the time. It's just obnoxious.
24:40
Speaker 3: And so then Caleb arrives, he flies in. He's again
24:43
Speaker 3: only there for a couple of days because he has
24:45
Speaker 3: to work, because he's a hardworking man.
24:47
Speaker 1: We love that.
24:48
Speaker 3: We do love that he's meeting the whole family as
24:51
Speaker 3: Maddie's significant other. The family again knows of Kayleb because
24:55
Speaker 3: his sister is married to Cody's brother. Right, so I
24:58
Speaker 3: think he's like.
25:00
Speaker 1: Is that the brother that passed?
25:01
Speaker 2: I don't know. It's kind of blurred.
25:03
Speaker 1: I thought it was Curtis, but then I am not sure.
25:06
Speaker 1: But yes, that is how he is related to the family.
25:09
Speaker 3: Yeah, so the family knows of him. Mattie is already
25:12
Speaker 3: a little bit embarrassed because she doesn't want her family
25:15
Speaker 3: to bombard Caleb with a bunch of questions and a
25:17
Speaker 3: bunch of obnoxiousness. So she kind of tells the family
25:20
Speaker 3: to like, chill the fuck out. And I think Logan,
25:22
Speaker 3: also as the older brother and the sixth parent, is like, y'all, chill,
25:27
Speaker 3: it's Mattie's boyfriend. Let's be on best behavior. And ultimately
25:31
Speaker 3: everybody ends up listening to Logan because he's the real
25:34
Speaker 3: dad here. And so when Caleb arrives, Mattie's expecting everybody
25:38
Speaker 3: to hound him for everything, and everybody's just awkwardly staring
25:41
Speaker 3: at him and is very quiet and very respectful, which
25:44
Speaker 3: is kind of cute in its own way, but Mattie
25:46
Speaker 3: thinks it's a little awkward. And you know, we hear
25:50
Speaker 3: from Mattie a little bit saying that she knows that
25:52
Speaker 3: Caleb is the one She's gonna be with him forever.
25:55
Speaker 3: She loves him so much. And I just think that's
25:57
Speaker 3: really cute because they do end up together for and
26:00
Speaker 3: they have a bunch of kids and I thought it
26:02
Speaker 3: was cute just seeing them so young, because Caleb looks
26:04
Speaker 3: all handsome and nicely.
26:08
Speaker 2: No, he does.
26:10
Speaker 1: He looks the best that he's ever going to look
26:11
Speaker 1: in this moment, and Maddie is really smitten. Yeah, he
26:16
Speaker 1: seems like a gentleman. And the age gap is inappropriate,
26:19
Speaker 1: especially if Janelle has been facilitating this relationship, which I
26:23
Speaker 1: believe she has been since Maddy was maybe sixteen years old.
26:26
Speaker 1: I don't know, that's conjecture, it's a legit, but they're
26:30
Speaker 1: here now, they're in love. Yeah, and it's cute.
26:34
Speaker 2: And how old is he now? Is he like twenty seven?
26:36
Speaker 2: He's not in his thirties right now?
26:38
Speaker 1: Is he in the season?
26:39
Speaker 2: In this season?
26:40
Speaker 1: No? I think he's like twenty nine, twenty eight, twenty nine. Oh,
26:44
Speaker 1: but I think she's eighteen nineteen, she's first year of college.
26:47
Speaker 3: Yeah, yikes, it's inappropri I mean, it's inappropro But you know,
26:53
Speaker 3: they're happy now and whatever, and they're grown adults and stuff,
26:56
Speaker 3: and that's fine. But it is a little weird, yes,
26:59
Speaker 3: at this point, Like I'm old, I'm twenty nine, and
27:02
Speaker 3: I can't imagine like even going after somebody seventeen seventeen. Yeah,
27:07
Speaker 3: like they're literally children to me, right, but whatever, So
27:10
Speaker 3: then you're not a man?
27:11
Speaker 2: No, oh yes, I'm not.
27:13
Speaker 1: Yikes.
27:14
Speaker 3: So then the family goes hiking on the Iditarod charrail
27:17
Speaker 3: and it's absolutely fucking gorgeous. But Robin is staying home
27:22
Speaker 3: doing whatever, and maybe she's staying home with Solomon. I
27:24
Speaker 3: don't know.
27:25
Speaker 2: I guess I shouldn't be too critical because she is
27:27
Speaker 2: pregnant or whatever.
27:28
Speaker 3: She's got a little killed. But everybody goes hiking. They
27:32
Speaker 3: meet up with a you pick tour guide.
27:35
Speaker 2: He says he's an Eskimo. His name is Mo.
27:42
Speaker 3: And then Cody are kind of shooting the shit and
27:45
Speaker 3: it's kind of funny a little bit. They're talking about
27:47
Speaker 3: polygamy of course, you know. Of course the Eskimo is like,
27:51
Speaker 3: so you Mormon, and we have to make the distinction. Well, yeah,
27:54
Speaker 3: but we're fundamental this Mormon. We're not a part of
27:56
Speaker 3: the Mormon church because you know, the LDS Church would
27:59
Speaker 3: have had a fit if the Browns tried to associate
28:01
Speaker 3: themselves with them. And Moe the Eskimo says that they
28:06
Speaker 3: used to be polygamists too, back in the before four times,
28:10
Speaker 3: but now they're not, and then he tries to pimp
28:12
Speaker 3: out his six sons with Cody's daughters, and I guess Cody,
28:16
Speaker 3: according to Mary, made a comment about selling his daughters
28:19
Speaker 3: for a price, but Cody was just joking, and I'm.
28:22
Speaker 2: Just like, ugh, why don't we have to watch this interaction?
28:25
Speaker 2: I know it's just annoying.
28:28
Speaker 3: And so then when they're taking their little hike, they
28:31
Speaker 3: stop for lunch at one point, and this is where
28:33
Speaker 3: Cody goes and sits with Maddie and Caleb very awkwardly.
28:37
Speaker 1: That was such a strange conversation.
28:40
Speaker 2: I hated this.
28:41
Speaker 3: I was uncomfortable because Cody is like he knows on
28:44
Speaker 3: the back of his mind, and all of the parents
28:46
Speaker 3: know that Maddie and Caleb are surus that Caleb's probably
28:50
Speaker 3: going to ask Maddie to marry him at some point,
28:54
Speaker 3: and so Cody goes over there with that thought in
28:56
Speaker 3: mind and starts telling the story about how he went
28:58
Speaker 3: and asked Robin Grandpa for her hand in marriage and
29:03
Speaker 3: he was given him shit for it, and I'm just like,
29:06
Speaker 3: nobody cares, dude.
29:07
Speaker 1: It's also interesting though, that he would select this story
29:10
Speaker 1: of Robin Yea because he's got three other wives, and
29:13
Speaker 1: it's just so obvious to me that he only thinks
29:17
Speaker 1: about Robin when he's thinking about a love story, Like
29:20
Speaker 1: he could not give a shit about his other three wives.
29:23
Speaker 3: And it's so funny because it's like, this is Janelle's daughter,
29:25
Speaker 3: so why don't you talk about yeah, meeting her mom
29:29
Speaker 3: and asking whoever for her handed marriage, But no, like
29:33
Speaker 3: we're gonna talk about Robin, and I just wonder what
29:35
Speaker 3: their thoughts were at that time. I mean, obviously, Maddie
29:38
Speaker 3: says to the camera like this is weird.
29:40
Speaker 1: Yeah, and she's looking away and she's just counting the
29:43
Speaker 1: minutes down before Dad stops talking.
29:46
Speaker 3: And she's like worried about if she gets up, like
29:48
Speaker 3: he's gonna bombard Caleb with questions about their relationship or whatever.
29:53
Speaker 1: I do that to you when you came into the family,
29:55
Speaker 1: when you first met me and I knew that you
29:57
Speaker 1: too were serious.
29:59
Speaker 2: Was I like, no, but.
30:00
Speaker 3: You you were texting me and I have screenshots from
30:04
Speaker 3: back in the day of you being like, we'll take
30:07
Speaker 3: you to Vegas right now and you can get married
30:12
Speaker 3: and stuff like that. But it wasn't like anything that
30:14
Speaker 3: made me feel uncomfortable. It was genuinely, like from an
30:17
Speaker 3: encouraging place.
30:18
Speaker 1: Yeah, because I loved you, Yeah, exactly, so great.
30:24
Speaker 3: Yeah, but yeah, like it wasn't anything weird, like Cody
30:28
Speaker 3: in this moment with Caleb, Yeah, and I just I
30:31
Speaker 3: don't know. I think Cody was coming from a place
30:34
Speaker 3: of like trying to be supportive. But like Cody doesn't
30:36
Speaker 3: know how to be a human being because he's a
30:39
Speaker 3: demon he's masquerading as so he's like trying to relate
30:44
Speaker 3: with these stupid stories and it's like it doesn't really
30:47
Speaker 3: land the way that you hope, no for it, and
30:49
Speaker 3: he's like trying to explain it to the camera too,
30:52
Speaker 3: Like no, it's like just being supportive and it is
30:53
Speaker 3: being encouraging, But.
30:55
Speaker 1: Like, how come you can't read social cues like most people,
31:00
Speaker 1: even children, Yeah, like children can read a room sometimes,
31:03
Speaker 1: Like you could probably look at your daughter's face and
31:06
Speaker 1: look at Caleb's body language and deduce for your dumb
31:10
Speaker 1: self that they're not into this conversation and maybe that
31:12
Speaker 1: you shouldn't be having it. Maybe there's another way that
31:15
Speaker 1: you can approach it. But no, he can't read social
31:17
Speaker 1: cues and or he doesn't care about how anybody else feels,
31:21
Speaker 1: and he wants to do this on camera because he
31:24
Speaker 1: wants to seem like the good father who's encouraging Caleb
31:27
Speaker 1: to ask his daughter for her handed marriage. I don't know,
31:31
Speaker 1: just felt very contrived. It felt very weird, like why
31:35
Speaker 1: are you putting your daughter through this? But Cody doesn't
31:38
Speaker 1: care at the end of the day. Cody doesn't care,
31:41
Speaker 1: not at all.
31:42
Speaker 3: And I think it speaks to his narcissism a bit,
31:44
Speaker 3: because you could just be a father and sit with
31:48
Speaker 3: them and be like, hey, you guys are a really
31:50
Speaker 3: great couple. You look awesome together. Caleb. I think you're
31:53
Speaker 3: a great guy, and I just want you to know
31:55
Speaker 3: like I support you in your relationship.
31:57
Speaker 2: I think you're great together.
31:58
Speaker 3: That's it doesn't need to be anything more than that.
32:01
Speaker 3: But Cody wants to tell the story of him, and
32:04
Speaker 3: Robin wants to let everybody know this little journey he
32:09
Speaker 3: went on to ask for her handed marriage.
32:11
Speaker 1: He wants to do it on camera.
32:12
Speaker 3: Exactly, and then to the camera on the couch, he's
32:15
Speaker 3: saying something like, well, it's just doing it to like,
32:17
Speaker 3: you know, lay out the red carpet for Caleb to
32:20
Speaker 3: come to me, because I know he's going to talk
32:22
Speaker 3: to me, but I want him to know through this
32:24
Speaker 3: story of me and Robin, this love story, that he
32:26
Speaker 3: can come and talk to me. It's like, oh, shut up,
32:29
Speaker 3: just shut up. You can just say that with your words. Yeah, hey, Caleb,
32:32
Speaker 3: you can talk to me anytime.
32:33
Speaker 1: Yeah, that's it.
32:35
Speaker 2: It's as simple as that.
32:37
Speaker 3: And so then they returned back to their rental after
32:40
Speaker 3: the hike, and Hunter had contacted Robin while everybody was
32:45
Speaker 3: out hiking, saying that he had time to call them
32:49
Speaker 3: because he's at the Air Force Academy. He doesn't have
32:51
Speaker 3: a lot of time to talk to anybody, but now
32:53
Speaker 3: he does, so he wants to FaceTime everybody. And I
32:56
Speaker 3: actually thought that this was a really sweet moment for
33:00
Speaker 3: the whole family. I felt like it was really unifying
33:02
Speaker 3: in a way because I think somebody had mentioned, like
33:06
Speaker 3: Janelle or something, that normally it's really hard to quiet
33:10
Speaker 3: everybody down for everything, like for any kind of situation,
33:13
Speaker 3: it's hard to get everybody to settle down. But when
33:15
Speaker 3: it's Hunter calling the whole family, everybody is silent, everybody
33:19
Speaker 3: is very attentive, everybody's listening, everybody's gathering together, and Janelle
33:23
Speaker 3: actually gets a bit emotional every time he calls. And
33:26
Speaker 3: it's so funny because she's not an emotional person at all,
33:31
Speaker 3: And I don't think she's very in tune with her
33:33
Speaker 3: emotions because she says something like, I don't know why
33:36
Speaker 3: in emotional Well, because it's your baby boy, he's in
33:40
Speaker 3: the military.
33:41
Speaker 2: Well.
33:41
Speaker 1: I think she's also wondering, though, why she doesn't necessarily
33:45
Speaker 1: feel that emotional reaction with, for example, Maddie who's off
33:50
Speaker 1: in college. Logan is off in college, is doing his
33:53
Speaker 1: own thing, but he's in Las Vegas, so he's close by.
33:55
Speaker 1: But so she's a little surprised at the depth of
33:57
Speaker 1: her emotion for Hunter being away. Yeah, but I also
34:00
Speaker 1: think that it's really sweet. I think it's very that
34:03
Speaker 1: she loves she I think Janelle loves her children definitely.
34:06
Speaker 1: I don't think she was the best parent necessarily, but
34:08
Speaker 1: she definitely loves those kids.
34:10
Speaker 3: I think she was a bit distant, like emotionally, and
34:12
Speaker 3: so you know that you would have.
34:14
Speaker 1: To be though, to be a polygamist, don't you think
34:16
Speaker 1: you would have to shut down fundamental parts of yourself
34:20
Speaker 1: in order to exist in a structure like that. So
34:22
Speaker 1: I think she's been doing that for decades.
34:26
Speaker 3: But she does love her kids, that is for sure.
34:28
Speaker 3: And so Janelle's a little emotional, she's weepy, but Hunter
34:32
Speaker 3: is happy to say hi to every kiddemy. I do
34:36
Speaker 3: love military people, me too. And so this is also
34:41
Speaker 3: the time that Robin and Cody decide to announce the
34:44
Speaker 3: gender of their baby, because Hunter's.
34:46
Speaker 4: On the condemn scenory, And like, my thing is is
34:51
Speaker 4: if it was anybody else other than Robin and Cody,
34:54
Speaker 4: I could see it as like an endearing moment, But
34:56
Speaker 4: it kind of felt like to me, Robin just trying
34:59
Speaker 4: to steal the moment for herself, Like.
35:01
Speaker 2: No, like, let's put the attention back on me, not.
35:03
Speaker 1: On Hunter, interestingly stealing it from Hunter, who she's got
35:07
Speaker 1: an issue with because he was not happy the first
35:10
Speaker 1: time she got pregnant.
35:11
Speaker 3: And that's what I'm saying. And so Robin has little
35:15
Speaker 3: gifts for Truly and Solomon to open their little baby
35:17
Speaker 3: dolls that will reveal the gender of their baby. And
35:21
Speaker 3: so she has Truly and Solomon open up the gifts.
35:24
Speaker 3: They're pink dolls.
35:25
Speaker 1: It's a girl.
35:26
Speaker 2: Everybody's decided.
35:27
Speaker 3: Everybody called it pretty much. Hunter does say something kind
35:31
Speaker 3: of interesting. He's like, well, I've got a lot of
35:32
Speaker 3: sisters already. I guess one more is all right or something.
35:36
Speaker 1: So he wasn't like He's a little bit more encouraging
35:39
Speaker 1: than that. He's like, and I love my sister, does
35:41
Speaker 1: look forward to having another sister.
35:43
Speaker 2: I felt like there was.
35:44
Speaker 3: A little slight passive aggressiveness in my opinion, But everybody
35:49
Speaker 3: starts talking to Hunter afterwards, and again everyone's quiet and
35:52
Speaker 3: attentive and they're just happy to.
35:53
Speaker 2: Hear from him.
35:54
Speaker 3: It is kind of said that he's not on this
35:56
Speaker 3: big family trip because we end the episode kind of
35:59
Speaker 3: reflect on this trip as a whole and how this
36:03
Speaker 3: is likely going to be the last like big family
36:06
Speaker 3: vacation that they have where they have everybody together, because
36:09
Speaker 3: we have all the older kids moving on with their
36:11
Speaker 3: lives and doing their own things. Obviously, Logan and Michelle
36:14
Speaker 3: are going to get married, Maddie and Caleb were going
36:17
Speaker 3: to get married. Aspens in college, Logan's in college, Hunters
36:21
Speaker 3: at the Air Force Academy. Like everybody's kind of moving on.
36:24
Speaker 3: Leon is going to be going to graduate school.
36:26
Speaker 2: I think one of the other ones is going to
36:27
Speaker 2: graduate school.
36:28
Speaker 3: I forgot, but like everybody's moving on and doing their thing,
36:31
Speaker 3: and so it's kind of sad that Hunter's not able
36:33
Speaker 3: to be there. But I thought that this was really sweet.
36:37
Speaker 3: And it's kind of sad watching this back because everything
36:40
Speaker 3: turns to shit after this, and I don't mean to laugh,
36:44
Speaker 3: but like it really does implode.
36:47
Speaker 2: Like they had it good.
36:48
Speaker 3: They had the cold Sack, had the homes. I know
36:51
Speaker 3: Cody was obviously favoring Robin, but at least they were
36:54
Speaker 3: all within vicinity. They had the family together, the siblings
36:57
Speaker 3: were mending their.
36:58
Speaker 2: Relationships, right.
37:00
Speaker 1: But Mary, We're going to get to the next episode
37:03
Speaker 1: where Mary is going to tell the adults that she's
37:10
Speaker 1: not sure if she's going to stay. She's saying this
37:13
Speaker 1: at the dinner, and this I remember from when I
37:15
Speaker 1: watched years ago, and I think she says to the
37:19
Speaker 1: camera that something bad has happened and she's let a
37:22
Speaker 1: terrible force into the family. I don't think she tells
37:25
Speaker 1: them about the catfish at the dinner. I don't think
37:29
Speaker 1: she does. I think she does at the dinner. Okay,
37:31
Speaker 1: I'm not okay, I don't I'm not remembering necessarily, but nonetheless,
37:35
Speaker 1: in the next episode, she's going to blow up the situation.
37:39
Speaker 1: Between her and Cody. It's never going to recover. It
37:44
Speaker 1: never recovered after their divorce either, And I do think
37:48
Speaker 1: this is the beginning of the ultimate downward spiral of
37:52
Speaker 1: the entire family, Like Cody's going to get really bitter
37:55
Speaker 1: and upset. Leanne is obviously going to be very upset
37:59
Speaker 1: with Mary. I think the other wives are going to
38:02
Speaker 1: be trying to figure out, okay, like how do we
38:04
Speaker 1: need to act and behave so that we can keep
38:07
Speaker 1: this family together because this is obviously a huge rift
38:11
Speaker 1: and there's just gonna be a big wobble uh huh,
38:14
Speaker 1: And that's gonna throw the whole thing off of its axis,
38:17
Speaker 1: and we're gonna go to flag Staff, We're gonna have COVID,
38:20
Speaker 1: and then it's a knife in the kidneys, bitch. That's
38:24
Speaker 1: the trajectory we're on.
38:26
Speaker 3: And I was thinking, like watching the preview for next
38:29
Speaker 3: week's episode, like the last half of the Alaskan trip,
38:32
Speaker 3: like how crazy it is for Mary to announce that
38:36
Speaker 3: on this like lovely family vacation. That's also like the
38:39
Speaker 3: reveal of Robin's baby gender and everything. I was kind
38:42
Speaker 3: of thinking like maybe this is when like Robin starts
38:46
Speaker 3: to turn for the worst, Like she was already shitty,
38:49
Speaker 3: she's already really.
38:50
Speaker 2: Selfish or whatever.
38:51
Speaker 3: But I'm wondering if this is also what motivates Robin
38:54
Speaker 3: to steal Cody even further and like manipulate him even more,
38:58
Speaker 3: because how dare amir like ruined this sweet moment for me?
39:02
Speaker 3: If Robin's this true narcissist, like that would be such a.
39:05
Speaker 1: Blow, right, it would be. And you can kind of
39:07
Speaker 1: see it in this season in particular, like how every celebration,
39:12
Speaker 1: every big storyline revolves around Robin. It's the adoption, it
39:17
Speaker 1: is their legal marriage, it is the adoption party, it
39:21
Speaker 1: is the biodad to her kids. It is now the
39:25
Speaker 1: pregnancy and the announcement around that. It's like I'm kind
39:28
Speaker 1: of sick of it, Yeah, and just wondering what's happening
39:31
Speaker 1: behind the scenes with the other wives and the family,
39:34
Speaker 1: Like are they feeling it like we're feeling it. They
39:37
Speaker 1: have to be right, It's always about her. It totally
39:40
Speaker 1: everything is about her.
39:42
Speaker 3: It's actually a great point. This entire season has been
39:44
Speaker 3: about her. Even the last half of season eight was
39:47
Speaker 3: about her. It's just ramping up, yep. And so it's
39:51
Speaker 3: funny how like it all ends with like her second pregnancy.
39:55
Speaker 3: She's probably like at the top of the world, you know, like, mean, God,
39:58
Speaker 3: I've got everything I wanted. And then Mary comes in
40:01
Speaker 3: with the catfish and the family just starts to disintegrate,
40:04
Speaker 3: and then she's going to see her empire kind of
40:07
Speaker 3: fall down.
40:08
Speaker 1: Well is it falling down? I mean she's in her
40:10
Speaker 1: second mc mansion. She's sitting on top of the world.
40:13
Speaker 1: They had a thirty episode season twenty or whatever it
40:17
Speaker 1: was or nineteen or twenty whatever. Like she's making money
40:20
Speaker 1: hand over fist, So she probably thinks that she's winning.
40:24
Speaker 1: I don't know. She probably doesn't believe in karma, and
40:27
Speaker 1: she probably doesn't think that karma is a bitch and
40:30
Speaker 1: it's going to come for us all. And how you
40:32
Speaker 1: treat people is how you ultimately get treated by the universe.
40:35
Speaker 1: Robit true.
40:37
Speaker 3: But I'm just wondering, like how they're even able to
40:39
Speaker 3: afford all that stuff. I can't imagine all of its
40:43
Speaker 3: cash flow or anything.
40:45
Speaker 2: Maybe they're debt financing.
40:46
Speaker 1: They're still debt financing. They are definitely debt. They got
40:49
Speaker 1: to be. They are living high on the hog, well
40:52
Speaker 1: beyond their means, and I just don't see how any
40:55
Speaker 1: of that is sustainable now to that end, and I
40:58
Speaker 1: know we're wrapping up, but has anybody you heard when
41:01
Speaker 1: the next season drops?
41:03
Speaker 2: Yeah, of Sister Wives.
41:05
Speaker 3: I thought I heard some rumors on Reddit saying September
41:08
Speaker 3: or was that just us? Say?
41:09
Speaker 1: It could have just been us because typically like the
41:11
Speaker 1: new season drops August or September and it ends around
41:15
Speaker 1: the New Year's so we're kind of coming up on it,
41:17
Speaker 1: but there hasn't been any talk.
41:20
Speaker 2: Let us know if you guys know anything.
41:22
Speaker 1: Sister Wive's ecosystem, Yeah, what's happening? Because I want to
41:25
Speaker 1: see what's going on. I want to see what they do,
41:28
Speaker 1: the direction that they actually take us, and whether we're
41:31
Speaker 1: gonna get real, whether we're gonna talk about some of
41:34
Speaker 1: these adult kids who are now on social media calling
41:37
Speaker 1: out these parents, whether we're gonna talk about like what's
41:40
Speaker 1: happening in the real life, or if it's just gonna
41:42
Speaker 1: be Christine's fucking Airbnb's and Janelle's farm and like not
41:47
Speaker 1: ever getting to the issue.
41:50
Speaker 2: Look, it's gonna be that, it's gonna be that.
41:52
Speaker 3: It's gonna be that, and I'm not like looking forward
41:54
Speaker 3: to that, Like we're gonna watch it, but it's just
41:57
Speaker 3: it's gonna be a slog and it's gonna be heavy
41:59
Speaker 3: on the Code and Robin because they're girl gass bitches.
42:02
Speaker 1: And that's the thing. It feels like when you're watching
42:04
Speaker 1: this season, season nine, it feels like production's almost setting
42:07
Speaker 1: that up by focusing so much on Godian line.
42:10
Speaker 2: Yeah, do they not underderstand that we do not want that.
42:12
Speaker 2: We don't give a shit.
42:13
Speaker 1: I do not care. And again, my prediction is they're
42:17
Speaker 1: going to have a recommitment a bowel.
42:20
Speaker 2: I will want to watch that.
42:22
Speaker 1: Yeah, of course I will want to watch that.
42:25
Speaker 2: I need to see the track and all of the
42:27
Speaker 2: money that they spend on.
42:28
Speaker 1: I need to see all of it. Who comes, Nobody's
42:31
Speaker 1: gonna fucking know what anyway. So there's a lot of
42:33
Speaker 1: things that could happen, and I'm just wondering when it's
42:35
Speaker 1: coming back. Yeah, we need to know, if you know,
42:38
Speaker 1: let us know, And Beatrice, is there anything else that
42:41
Speaker 1: we need to say to these beautiful raccoons before we
42:44
Speaker 1: get up on out of here?
