2:38
it is our priority to be here with you. But every now and
2:40
again, Beatrice has to have a wild week. I want that for you,
2:50
girl, have fun crazy. Okay, So let's get into a Sister
2:53
Wives season eighteen, episode four A deal with the Devil double. Before we
3:00
talk about the particlers of this episode, I have a question for you.
3:05
Okay. That question is, are the producers trying to run some interference for
3:12
Cody, trying to do a big PR thing for Cody and Robin. Do
3:15
you think they're trying to help Cody and Robin with all the footage that we're
3:19
seeing in their house and at holidays, or do you think that they are
3:22
shading Cody and Robin. Oh, I think they're shading them for the most
3:25
part. I think the only PR stuff that we're seeing is probably by Cody
3:30
and Robin's design. Like with Cody's friend Nathan, Like I think he was
3:32
only on there because Cody wanted him to be on there, yes, and
3:36
wanted him to kind of back him up as a divorced polygamist man. Right,
3:39
But that's it. I think TLC knows what they're doing, Okay.
3:43
I think there was so much footage this time of Robin and Cody and Crapes
3:49
and Hari and Saul and God bless him, they're just kids. Bow Carola.
3:53
No, I do not want to see anything about their family. I
3:58
want to see the down of all of the families. I want it to
4:02
be pointed, I want it to be directed. And I'm like, are
4:04
the producers actually believing this bullshit? I think it's probably just filler because they
4:12
got to save all the juicy stuff. I mean, they have like what
4:15
like six or seven more episodes at least full of an hour that they have
4:18
to fucking fill. So of course they're going to have Crape stuff in there,
4:23
and they're gonna have orient Saul in there, which nobody needs. Like
4:26
it's just filler. It was just infuriating, and like, get to the
4:30
point, more about Gay, more about Garrison, more about Janelle and Christine
4:33
and the issues at hand. That's what we care about. I don't care
4:36
about his fucking burrito crape. You know. The other thing I wanted to
4:41
ask you was based on something I was watching on the YouTube channel Red Lipstick
4:46
Reality TV. She made this observation about how Leon and Gwen are nowhere to
4:55
be found during the holidays, and she was like, it's just sitting on
4:59
my spirit. Yeah, it's kind of hurting my feelings that the LGDT LGBTQ
5:04
two plus I A. Sorry, I'm old, but like the gay kids,
5:09
that the trans kids are not actually anywhere to be found. Because there
5:13
was something that came out from Without a Crystal Ball recently in which she talked
5:19
about how Cody and Robin are currently attempting to get back into the good graces
5:26
of their church. Huh, and that one of the things that they're doing
5:30
in order to get back into the good graces is they are declaring that they
5:33
are against lgbt Q. I A. Wow. They're taking a very strong
5:38
position that they don't believe in it, they think it's wrong. Maybe that's
5:42
why they don't want Gwen around and Leon and I'm just like, can that
5:46
possibly be? But why wouldn't Gwen be hanging out with her mom? Though
5:51
Gwen is in Flagstaff, right is she? Well, I think at the
5:55
time of this footage Christmas twenty twenty one, I think Gwen is in Flagstaff,
6:00
but maybe she didn't go because Peyton was there. Maybe because of Peyton,
6:03
which is stupid, I mean, but whatever, if you have family
6:06
feuds, like I get it, but it's like I'm the kind of person
6:10
that I'm like, well, but it's Christmas though, Yeah, I don't
6:12
know, maybe can change. I don't think Christine has any problem. No,
6:16
I don't think Mary has any problem. I think if anybody has a
6:18
problem. And then there have been articles that have been coming out that Robin
6:23
and Cody don't believe in Leon's transition. So I just I'm wondering why the
6:30
gay kids and the trans kids aren't there for the holiday. It makes me
6:32
really sad. It makes me really sad too, but it probably is because
6:35
of Cody and Robin then, which is fucked up. It's really fucked up.
6:40
God, that makes me hate them even more. They're so hateable.
6:43
Okay, let's get into this episode. We start kind of where we left
6:47
off last week. Janelle and Cody have just had this big ass fight.
6:53
We've got Janelle filming herself really close to her face. I know, I'm
6:57
like, why you need to have the phone, like the great one of
7:00
those little selfie sticks, this little distance would be. But she is talking
7:05
about how she is shit out of luck. She's fifty years old. She
7:12
can't believe that she was so stupid to not set aside a nest egg for
7:16
herself or make sure that she would be taken care of. That she totally
7:20
bought in hook line and sink her. Yeah, everything Cody ever said about
7:25
what they were doing as a family and now here she has absolutely nothing,
7:30
and she's crying. She's also talking about how Cody has been mean and it
7:34
wasn't just this sit down argument that they had last week, but apparently he
7:40
had a conversation with her before, like a few days before. He was
7:44
in his car and he was demanding that she choose between him and her kids,
7:49
and she's like, I don't know who this guy is so fucking wild.
7:54
And we thought about this last season. We talked about what Janelle's last
7:58
straw would be, and we knew, like the fake psychics that we are,
8:03
that it would be her kids, Yes, and it was for Kenny
8:05
mother, it would be yes, and because to hear her say that he
8:09
asked her to choose between him and her kids is fucking bonkers to me.
8:13
It's nuts. I just don't get like the amount of delusion that Cody Brown
8:18
has and his fucking mind right now to even think that that would be a
8:22
question he could ask Janelle out of all of them, Like Janelle has always
8:26
been, her kids are her life, right or die for her kids.
8:28
Same with Chris, Christine and Jerry. But like Janelle has always been,
8:33
it's always her. He's asking that question in particular. He's giving her that
8:37
ultimatum in particular because he knows how she will choose right and she will choose
8:41
her children, And that gives him the out that he's really looking for.
8:46
Because later in this episode, when he's talking to Nathan, the expert on
8:50
plagamy, he talks about how he's actually relieved every time a wife leaves.
8:54
Yeah, because he's been pulling this scam over on them, say that they're
9:00
not loyal, that they're not sticking up for him, they're not following it's
9:03
COVID rules yea, and making it really effing hard for them to be in
9:07
a relationship with him. By the time they actually leave, He's like,
9:09
finally, God, that took a long time. Why didn't she leave sooner?
9:13
I'm relieved that you're gone, so fucking wild. But then in the
9:16
same breath is like, I never wanted this. I fought for my family
9:20
to be together. I fought for all of this. No, you didn't,
9:22
dude, You've been waiting for this to happen. And even Janelle says
9:26
in this little filmed up zoom thing, She's like, I feel like he's
9:30
just saying all of this stuff just to push me away. And it's true.
9:33
It's absolutely true, and it's really sad, and it's really obvious.
9:39
And I'm still so flabbergasted, Beatrice that they think that they are pulling one
9:45
over us, like that we're actually buying everything that they're saying about how Janelle's
9:50
not loyal. She is the most loyal wife that he's ever had, fluting
9:54
with Robin because Robin takes her opportunities to throw him under the bust. You
10:00
know who really never did, though, was Janelle Ye. Janelle's always backed
10:03
him up. With Janelle now speaking out about Cody having favorites, how he's
10:09
making these demands, giving her these ultimatums. I find her to be very
10:15
trustworthy because she wouldn't be saying it unless it was true. She had his
10:20
back forever, yep. And then he fucking crossed the line when he pitted
10:24
her against her and her kids. Like, that's just so crazy, dude.
10:28
And he did it on purpose because he's like, just leave now he
10:31
can say, Oh, Janelle's wanting to leave. It's like you pushed her
10:35
away. You pushed her away at every fucking opportunity, and you fucking financially
10:39
neglected her. And so now she's fifty and crying about it on national television.
10:45
Rightfully, so because she has nothing to her name when last episode you
10:48
were just saying she's got the same assets as everybody else. Remember called him
10:54
a coward? Yeah, this is him being a coward, totally not owning
10:58
the fact that he wants to get out out of these relationships that he would
11:01
prefer to be monogamous, not just calling a thing a thing and telling these
11:05
wives the truth, instead stringing them along and abusing them emotionally and financially.
11:11
This is abuse. What's happening to Janelle? Yes, this is the coward's
11:13
way out, That's exactly what he is. He's a freaking coward, fucking
11:18
coward, and an asshole. Totally. From there, we go to Salt
11:22
Lake City. We see Christine. She's hanging out with her kids. Yeah,
11:28
it's a really wonderful time. She says, I'm just really happy that
11:31
I don't have to be over there in Flagstaff having a family Christmas with Cody
11:35
Robin and their kids. That was kind of big. She's like, I'm
11:39
kind of glad that we're doing Christmas separate this year. I'm like, dang,
11:41
really yeah, but she just couldn't be happier and I'm living for it.
11:46
Yeah. And it's like when they sat down at saltsa Brava and Cody
11:50
said something like, she's just trying to pretend that she's living her best life.
11:54
Now she's still pretending, and this footage from this holiday shows that she's
11:58
so much better off. Yeah, and she was when she was with you.
12:03
Then we bounce over to Robin in Cody's place. It's Christmas Eve and
12:07
Mary has brought some lasagna dish and I'm thinking to myself And we talked about
12:11
this in the reaction again patrion dot com if you want to watch it,
12:13
I'm thinking to myself, last week, wasn't Mary talking about how she hosts
12:20
Christmas Eve? Wasn't she asking the question, well, should I invite Janelle?
12:24
Should I invite all the kids? Everybody at the Airbnb in my place?
12:28
And Robin said, so, I'm too scary story, it's no safe
12:31
spaces for my kids. And so Mary then decided not to invite them,
12:37
and then the next thing we know, she doesn't even get to have Christmas
12:39
Eve at her house. We're at Robin in Cody's and Mary is there again,
12:45
third wheel in it, design piece in it. And it's sad.
12:48
It's so fucking sad and so fucking awkward because even Cody and Robin are like,
12:52
we have to tone down a romantic tension between us, come on for
12:56
Mary's sake, And it's just like a it's a lot on us. So
13:01
what would it look like if they weren't toning down thereon? Would you just
13:05
be dry humping next to the Christmas tree in front of all your kids?
13:07
I mean, you guys are in your forties and your fifties, you've been
13:11
married for over a decade. Kind of romantic mother FFing tension? Are you
13:13
talking about? You disgusting person. I can't stand damn, I can't stand
13:20
in poor Mary. And Mary's like, yeah, they really don't do a
13:22
good job. No, they don't hiding their affection for each other. Well,
13:26
she says yeah in regards to Cody. She's like, I can tell
13:30
with Cody because Robin's like, I'm trying to be really considerable of Mary and
13:33
her feelings, so I'm really trying to like be conscious and not show a
13:37
lot of affection. But Mary's like, no, I see it. It's
13:39
fine. But Mary's also feeling terrible because it's not like she has her kid
13:45
there. She doesn't have any of the og kids. You know. I
13:48
don't mean to say that in a mean way, because yes, you do.
13:50
Robin's kids are technically, but they're not. They don't want to be
13:56
a part of the other families. They don't care to be a part of
13:58
the other family. And they're all just on their their fucking phones and like
14:01
not actually interacting, and Mary's just in the background with her fucking weird lasagna
14:05
with bowtie noodles. It's just so fucking sad. And then we get to
14:11
the Dickens Village. Oh, the Charles Dickens Village. Yeah, which apparently
14:16
Cody really likes a Christmas Carol the story by Charles Dickens by Charles Dickens.
14:20
Is it Charles Dickens. I don't know. I think it's Charles Dickens,
14:22
right, am I getting that wrong? I would be really stupid if I
14:26
got there right. I think it's Charles Dickens. But anyway, after we
14:28
reacted, I took a moment to look up how much each piece in a
14:33
Dickens or a Dickensian village. It's at the very lowest, it's like seventy
14:39
nine dollars per peace, and on average it's like one seventy five to over
14:43
two hundred dollars for just one of the structures. And she had an entire
14:48
island filled of the Dickens village, and then she had some of the Dickens
14:52
Village in the background too, with those paintings that that TikTok girl talked about
14:56
last week. But I posted on ig and all of her figuring she's got
15:01
so many Dickensian Village pieces, She's got thousands of dollars into the Dickens village.
15:07
Wow, that's ridiculous. Maybe that's why she doesn't want people in her
15:11
house because she's got all these nice fucking things. Meanwhile, Janelle is it
15:16
her dorm room apartment, making fucking lasagna, really crappy looking lasagna, kitchen
15:22
pasta, sauce from a bottle. I was making lasania this weekend, and
15:26
I worked for like two or three hours to make my lasagna. Didn't get
15:28
an I have some for you right now if you would like some, But
15:31
you say it always makes you poop. No, I mean yeah, but
15:35
you can have as much as you want. But I did. It was
15:37
a pitiful lasagna for those of us who make lasagna. I felt really bad
15:41
because Gabe was with her helping, and he's just encouraging her. And she
15:43
doesn't like to cook anywhere. Now she's doing her very best with what little
15:48
she has to put together a nice Christmas for her family. Meanwhile, over
15:52
at the McMansion they have a fucking feast. And if you haven't seen that
15:56
TikTok, I know you put it up on our Instagram. Yes, that
16:00
chick who was talking about the value of the paintings just in the hallway that
16:04
they show yes on the show, like many, many thousands of dollars worth
16:10
of art in that little hallway. You gotta go watch it, oh for
16:12
sure. And we don't know if they're prints of these artists paintings or they're
16:18
if they're original, But regardless if they're prints or they're original, they're still
16:22
fucking expensive. And she's got them all over fucking house. And I'm sure
16:26
she's got a bunch in their bedroom and all the bedroom And remember those angel
16:30
wing amethists, huge tower of amethists. That's like thousands of dollars just for
16:36
that. So, like the amount of money that they have in this house
16:38
is probably why she doesn't want the cameras in there, because when you get
16:44
a sense of the disparity between how they're living and when we get to Christmas,
16:48
it's even crazier. Girls, Steven and I also look that shit up
16:51
too. The disparity between how they're living and how Janelle is living is crazy.
16:59
It's sad, And I'm like, do you guys not even understand the
17:03
kind of spectacle that you're making and how this is going to come across to
17:07
the rest of the family. No, they don't. Maybe that's why there's
17:10
all those boxes at the bottom level of the house. Maybe it's all of
17:14
her other nice things that she's fucking packing up and hiding. Maybe she's not
17:18
actually a horder, Maybe she's just hiding all of her wealth that she's stolen
17:22
from all of the wives. So sad, it's pathetic, So sad.
17:26
Okay, So in the next segment, it's actually Christmas Day, we have
17:30
Mary driving over to Cody and Robin's and saying something like her and Robin are
17:37
the only two people trying to keep the family together. Meanwhile, across town,
17:42
the families are meeting in the Airbnb and having very Christmas and they're trying
17:45
to keep it together. But Mary, what are you thinking? What are
17:48
you thinking? She's like, I don't know what is going on in her
17:52
mind, Like maybe she's thinking that by being buddy buddy with Robin that maybe
17:56
she'll get into some kind of good graces with Cody. I don't know.
18:00
But it's like really crazy because it's like, how can't you not see the
18:04
mistreatment of Christine and Janelle and the reasons why they left, and then say,
18:10
oh, it's only you and Robin who are trying to keep the family
18:11
together. I don't know with what family Robin's family. I don't know,
18:15
it's wild. I just don't understand. Janelle is spending the day with her
18:21
kids at the ARABNB. It's a very quiet Christmas. She's giving them gift
18:25
cards. I'm sure she wanted as much as she can afford to give them,
18:30
But they are saying that it's actually a really pleasant and joyful Christmas,
18:33
And even the kids are saying, yeah, I was kind of expecting it
18:37
to be pretty sad because we've fallen out with our father and our other family.
18:41
But as it turns out, it was pretty great just us. That
18:44
speaks a lot, That speaks volumes to how it actually feels to be around
18:48
Cody and Robin and their energy and how shitty they actually are. And I
18:53
don't know if it was Christine or if it was Janelle, but one of
18:56
them actually said that, you know, he was on for so long,
19:00
and I actually realized that that was okay. Yeah, actually I'm kind of
19:03
relieved when he's not around. Actually, my family gets on better when he's
19:07
not here. So now this is kind of a moment that crystallizes it for
19:11
the children too, like, yeah, I don't need my dad to be
19:14
here. Yeah, I don't need Robin and Oliver weird zombie children over here
19:18
to feel good about Christmas. It's actually pretty nice. That's pretty crazy.
19:22
Was it Janelle that said that? Maybe it was Janelle, I can't remember.
19:23
I think both Christine and Janelle have shared a sentiment like that. I
19:27
don't recall who it was exactly though. Meanwhile, over at Robin and Cody's
19:32
house, Mary is just kind of in the background when the kid wheeling up
19:36
to come out and have a look at their presence, like, what did
19:40
you think of this? Their big surprise? So apparently Cody bought the three
19:45
kids so Aurora, Day and Banna Brianna. I guess they bought them all
19:52
motorized bikes, yes, with helmets, yes? And how much were those?
19:56
I know you looked I did. I looked it up, and of
19:56
course Reddit is totally sleuthing. Their called Coleman something and the base price for
20:03
one of them is eight hundred and fifty or nine hundred dollars, so he's
20:07
in each, So he's in at least twenty five hundred dollars for just those
20:12
three electric bikes or motorbikes or whatever they are. Not to mention the mounds
20:18
of Christmas presents under the tree. Wow. Yeah, so twenty five to
20:22
twenty seven hundred dollars wow in motorbikes. But he said they weren't that expensive.
20:29
They weren't even because he's a liar, he's a chronic liar. What
20:32
a piece of shell. Maybe they're not expensive to you if you're accustomed to
20:36
having ten thousand dollars paintings. I get five thousand dollars amethist towers. Maybe
20:40
it's nothing to you in a whole five thousand dollars Dickensian village, twenty five
20:44
hundred dollars in a lot of money. And then juxtaposed that with again Gabe
20:48
and Garrison and Savannah and Hunter getting gift cards from Janelle because she can't afford
20:52
anything. And did he send any presents over to the family. He did
20:57
not. He didn't even ten text them. He didn't text Savanna. He
21:02
didn't even text Savanna. He didn't text anybody like he didn't even reach out
21:06
to Janelle, Christine, no of their kids, like nobody. He hasn't
21:08
reached out to anybody but Robin and her kids. But then he buys them
21:11
twenty five hundred dollars worth of motorized bikes, plus that mound of fucking presence
21:17
that they had behind the tree as well. I can't even believe the audacity.
21:21
And for him to even say, while doing all of this, this
21:23
big old grand gesture, for him to say that he doesn't have favorites and
21:27
that the kids are liars I know, and that they actually aren't reaching out
21:33
back to me. It's all their faults, everybody else's fault with me.
21:36
It's like, whoa dude, he really doesn't care about his other No,
21:40
he doesn't. It's sad. I mean, I'm a parent, so I
21:41
honestly, and I'm a healthy person, and I have an emotional intelligence,
21:47
so I can't conceive of a world where I would ever want to hurt my
21:52
children. Yeah, I mean obviously, as parents, we do hurt our
21:55
kids, but then we make amends and we bring it back together when we
21:57
make it healthy again. But like Cody knows, his kids in the other
22:03
houses are going to see this footage, right, They're going to know that
22:07
you sent nothing over for them for Christmas. Savannah, who is not even
22:11
of age, she's a miner, doesn't even get a phone call. She's
22:14
going to see this footage but he's sad. How are you not humble and
22:18
modest? How are you not talking about how you miss your entire family?
22:21
But instead he's celebrating lavishly. And this doesn't even take into consideration the gifts
22:25
that you know he got for Robin over that are probably many thousands more than
22:30
what he spent on those kids. That's probably ten thousand dollars Christmas. We
22:33
are looking at dude, absolutely kicking. Mary got anything. No, no,
22:41
she didn't get ship. She probably got like a coat from fucking Robin.
22:44
Here's that coat for when you came over to my house and I had
22:47
to keep you outside because I refused to bring the cameras in. It's so
22:51
fucking wild, sad, And maybe this is kind of the moment where Mary
22:56
starts to really, in an embodied way, understand, Oh, these people
23:00
don't give a crap. They don't give a crap about me. They don't
23:03
give a crap about the other kids in this family that I absolutely love.
23:07
They don't give a crap about my sister wives. These people only care about
23:11
themselves. I hope it's a wake up call for her. But Robin says,
23:15
these mountain bikes are these whatever? She says, this is a way
23:18
for Cody to compensate for the loss he's feeling for his kids. Will make
23:21
is that what you're going to try and spin it as that's what you're going
23:25
to try and spit it as, not as I don't think this is appropriate
23:27
because Cody's not talking or seeing any of his other children or his wives.
23:33
I feel like it's going to send the wrong message. No, it's he's
23:34
trying to clopency because he's broken hearted, right, because he's in so much
23:38
pain because his kids have rejected him, but also rejected me and my kids.
23:41
Yeah, Jesus, Mary and Joe's so crazy. Back at Janelle's Airbnb,
23:48
Janelle informs us that she has told her children that she did get into
23:52
a massive argument with her husband and that they're probably not going to recover from
23:59
this. And this is where she says something like the kids kind of knew
24:03
that this was coming, and they've been telling me for a while that I
24:06
deserve better than the situation that I'm currently in. I'm like, yes,
24:10
yes, now, yes, the kids have been seeing it for a lot
24:14
longer than the wives have been seeing it, that's for fucking sure. Yeah,
24:18
I mean I remember growing up in an abusive household and trying to talk
24:22
to my mother as a teenager, as a young kid, even as an
24:26
older person like early twenties, trying to talk my mother into getting out of
24:30
the situation and taking care of herself. I did that for many, many
24:36
years, and she never really listened. You've got to come to that choice
24:38
on your own. It seems like Janelle is finally coming to this choice on
24:42
her own, and her kids are probably like, fuck, finally get some
24:47
self respect. Honestly, find yourself a cowboy, yes, ford caw girl,
24:51
Yes, absolutely? All right. Next we get into oh no,
24:56
no, do we want to talk about the crepes? Jesus Christ? Well,
25:00
you know, crepes are not actually burritos. They're more fun. I
25:03
didn't know that. Not Mexican. Most people don't know that. God,
25:07
how dumb's segment? What did we need to see all of that? And
25:11
let's also talk about Ari and Solomon on the couch like their kids. I'm
25:15
not coming after kids. I'm just gonna say, with as much emotion as
25:21
possible to you'll see if you're watching, I don't need to see Ari and
25:23
Saul on the couch talking about their life I don't need to see Cody and
25:30
Robin in their hoarder house making crepes and talking about how Cody likes his crepes
25:34
and how Cody eats it like a brittle Nobody cares about this. We care
25:38
about the ship that's happening behind the scenes in this family. Seriously, this
25:42
is what I mean by like, this was a Cody and Robin produced moment,
25:47
and even Ari and Saul were totally fucking scripted. Did you even catch
25:51
that? Like they were so scripted and they were just trying to remember their
25:55
lines. I'm like, this is so fucking dopid. I don't want to
25:57
see these two little peanuts talk and a fucking language that doesn't make any fucking
26:03
sense, like they're just blabbing about nothing. Because Robin's like, this is
26:07
what you got to say when the camera's on you, This is what you
26:10
got to say. This isn't want to say. I don't want TLC to
26:14
think that any of us want this. No, I don't want it at
26:15
all. I could care less about Cody and Robin. I only care about
26:21
them as it concerns and intersects with what is happening with Mary. Yeah,
26:26
Janelle and Christine. Yeah, their opinions, their actions, That's what I'm
26:29
interested in. I am not interested in your phony, fucking brain dead family.
26:33
Sorry, no offense their kids, but fucking all you all. She
26:37
had a binky in her mouth. I know, let's talk about the binky
26:40
in her mouth. All of these kids are strange. Solomon looks like a
26:44
vampire child. Did you notice he wasn't even excited about the fucking bikes.
26:48
He's just looking at the camera like horrified, like, what what's happening here?
26:52
I don't understand. Mommy didn't give us permission to do that. I
26:55
don't got to get hurt. Do I have a helmet? They're so afraid
26:57
of life? Yes, But Ariella has a binky. She has a pacifier
27:03
in her mouth, and at the time of this filming, I do believe
27:06
she was five or six years old. It doesn't matter. I think if
27:10
you're three, four, five, six two old and you've got a pacifier,
27:15
there's something going on with the parenting of this child. In what world?
27:21
Under what theory does Robin think this is okay? Because that pacifier can
27:23
screw up her palette, her teeth, her speech. And if you notice
27:29
she has a lisp. She has a pretty strong already. I think it's
27:32
because of the binky. Oh is because of the binky. And we actually
27:34
had a follower on Instagram? Can I pull it up? Sure? Sure?
27:37
So we had a follower on Instagram named Cynthia. Hi Cynthia. She
27:42
reached out and she said, oh my god, the binky is so bad
27:45
for your teeth, by and airways. I'm a hygienist. But aside from
27:49
that, how fucking weird. And she said that my hair dresser here,
27:53
because she lives in Flagstaff as well. My hairdresser here does Christine's color and
27:57
haircut when she comes to flag and she sees her, and I think Janelle's
28:03
what she says, But Mary has never came back, so she thinks that
28:07
maybe Mary moved or doesn't live in Flagstaff anymore. But she doesn't even go
28:11
to the hairstylist anymore that Christine and Janelle went to. Did she go to
28:15
any hairstylist? Do you remember that episode? She had the hair sticking straight
28:18
out of her every episode it's like that. It's pretty bad, but that's
28:22
very interesting. But it's bad for her airways too, Ariella, for her
28:26
fucking binkie. Well, I of course immediately went on to Reddit and there's
28:29
a lot of discussions about the passive fire, and people were saying that there's
28:33
I guess rumors out there that Robin just can't handle when Ariella has a tantrum
28:38
because she doesn't have her passive fire, my god, doesn't know how to
28:42
handle it, and so she would prefer not to. She sleeps with it,
28:45
she has it all the time, and now you're fucking up her palette,
28:48
her airways, her teeth and her speech and sent and I mean,
28:52
wouldn't you even think about how this is going to appear on national television?
28:56
Even if you're letting your child have a pacifier at five or six years old,
29:00
wouldn't you maybe take the pacifier out while you're being filmed and be on
29:04
national television because moms across the world are going to have some shit to say
29:08
about that, are going to comment about it. So now it's not your
29:11
eyebrows, but now we're going to comment about how you pair it your children
29:14
or lack thereofs. It's like, well, you don't want to deal with
29:17
the tantrums, but what are you really dealing with? Don't you still have
29:21
a nanny. Yeah, why can't you have the nanny deal with that?
29:23
Right? Oh my goodness. All right, why don't we take a quick
29:27
little break and then we have that lovely conversation to get into with Nathan and
29:33
Cody. But let's take a break right now. We got to pay our
29:37
bills. Well back on the other side to discuss the rest of sister wives.
29:42
All right, we're back. We are now going to get into the
29:45
conversation that Cody has with Nathan. This conversation, for these two men have
29:52
all of the white male entitled audacity in the world. And look, I
29:57
don't mean to I don't shouldn't have even said that, But I'm just like,
30:00
I can't believe you two chumps sitting in this car talking about the women
30:07
that you have lured into your fucking polygamist scheme. These women who consented somehow
30:11
to fuck either of you. I mean, women who probably held jobs and
30:15
contributed mightily to your financial bottom line, These women who were ultimately driven out
30:22
of marriages to both of you men. I'm going to sit here and listen
30:26
to you opine about how hard it is for a man in polygamy. Miss
30:30
me with that bushit for real. I can't believe Nathan's even trying to say,
30:36
like we should have compassion for Cody going through this divorce. It's really
30:40
hard. It's really hard on polygamist mint. Shut the fuck up. Shut
30:44
the fuck shut the fuck up. And this is where they get into the
30:48
entire concept of sacred loneliness, of some kind of a pitiful justification of how
30:53
women suffering in plural marriage or actually suffering for their faith. Yeah, the
31:00
just tenant like you feel that loneliness, girl, And no, with each
31:03
pang of loneliness that you feel, each tear drop that you should you're serving
31:07
your God Jesus on colop and you're going to get your own planet one day.
31:12
You're not going to be in charge on the planet, of course,
31:14
that's me. Yeah, And there's gonna be other women there. You're never
31:17
going to escape the fact that I'm banging other women because even in the afterlife,
31:21
baby, i'm'll be banging these other women right in front of your course,
31:23
but you'll be on the planet. Yeah, you'll have your own planet.
31:26
Yeah. And if you leave me then you're going to be demoted.
31:29
Yeah, you'll have a different planet. Or the wayward farther away from colap.
31:33
Yes, the wayward wives have to go just the bullshit. It's such
31:37
bullshit, the hoops that they have to try to jump through to justify,
31:41
justify and excuse their behavior. Because I didn't hear Nathan who had two wives
31:48
at one point and one of the wives ended up leaving him. I didn't
31:52
hear him taking responsibility for the things that he might have done to cause his
31:56
own divorce. No, I certainly didn't hear anything out of Cody Brown's goddamn
32:01
mouth where he's taking responsibility other than him acknowledging how easy it is for men
32:07
in plural marriage to dismiss the suffering of their wife. And then he gets
32:10
into sacred loneliness, like literally right see into sacredlins. It's like, Okay,
32:15
you're saying the right things, or what you think are the right things,
32:20
to try and get us to believe your bullshit, Cody Brown. But
32:22
we're not stupid. We know what you've been doing, and the fact that
32:28
you are still trying to fabricate some bullshit excuse to justify your shitty behavior on
32:35
national television is beyond me. I just can't cut to Christine, who's laughing,
32:40
and she's like, sacred loneliness. What the fuck is sacred loneliness?
32:45
What does that mean? Cutting to Mary who's been a Mormon and a polygamist
32:49
for thirty some odd years, saying I have never heard of this particular doctrine.
32:53
And then we have Janelle who seems to give it some legitimacy, saying
32:58
that, yeah, it's essentially the idea that you're suffering, you know,
33:00
helps you to be closer to God. And then we have Robin piping like
33:05
so down to try. She's like, it is actually really difficult. I
33:09
do actually experience loneliness as a wife of Cody Brown. And I'm like,
33:15
you shut your dirty hormoup. Nobody asked you, Robin. You're gonna sit
33:20
here and pretend that you're lonely in this relationship where from day one Cody is
33:24
driving five hours one way to bang your back out while Christine is pregnant,
33:30
heavy with pregnancy with her child. Truly, you're gonna try to act like
33:35
you've been lonely when you know good and God damn well that Cody has favored
33:39
you and spent inordinate amounts of time with you. Like again, miss me
33:45
with this horshit lady, and do something about your eyebrows, I mean,
33:50
really girl like. And so she's saying all of this before she's changed up
33:53
her eyebrows, so she hasn't heard what people have said her. So she's
33:58
still spinning this crap because she thinks that we're buying it. And I just
34:01
can't wait. Like, if we have a tell all this season, we
34:05
better have a fucking teller and it better be a good fucking teller. Don't
34:09
give us a tell all. I swear to God, I'm going to go
34:13
to protest this production company, which I think is somewhere I don't even know.
34:16
I just can't I'm going to be so upset. I'm going to be
34:19
so mad, pitchforks and everything. Lord, I'm gonna be so mad.
34:22
Jesus. We also hear from Robin that she's been depressed. Yeah, it's
34:27
really difficult because I don't really understand how all of these relationships have just imploded.
34:32
And here I am in this family and it just doesn't feel safe anymore
34:36
for my children. So I am clinically depressed, Okay, almost as if
34:39
she's trying to come up with another excuse as to why her behavior is acceptable
34:46
wild. Yeah, so she can look back and say, well, I
34:49
was depressed. Nobody fucking feels bad for you. I'm sorry, Robin,
34:51
like I probably would have felt for you a little bit if you actually came
34:54
into this family with genuine good intentions. But you've always been the favorite.
35:00
You've always wanted to be the favorite. You've always wanted to be the apple
35:02
of Cody's eye. You called him your soulmate at the very like a beginning.
35:07
It's on record, Yep, I would have believed you. But I
35:09
have never believed you. I've never been on your side. You've always been
35:14
playing this fucking game. He's always been wily, she's been crafty, and
35:16
she's been manipulative. Yet we've been seeing it, bitch. So back to
35:22
Nathan and Cody having this discussion, I like my eyes almost popped out of
35:28
my whole head. I had fucking vein in my temple just protruding. My
35:32
juggular was protruding. I was ready to get my ninja stars and my brass
35:37
knuckles to fight Nathan when he said that polygamy is really about giving women choice.
35:43
Yeah, so they can choose whatever man they want to bang their back
35:46
out and give them kids, and she has to approach the man and ask,
35:52
hey, can I join your family? And can you bang my back
35:54
out? Would that be okay? It's not really up to the men as
35:58
if it's the women behind this entire thing. Yeah, I'm like, you're
36:02
saying that with your mouth, dude. A lot of polygamists say this,
36:06
even on Seeking sister Wives, which isn't even about Mormon fundamentalism. It's like
36:09
just people who want to be polygamists, Like the men always say it's the
36:15
women that decide to be polygamy. Even Cody has said in the earlier seasons
36:20
that Mary was the one that came up with the idea to be But well,
36:22
what the fuck ever, I think it's all a crock of shit.
36:24
It's all a manipulation game. That's why Cody thinks he's so good at this,
36:29
and that he thinks that he can pull the wool over everybody's eyes.
36:30
It's all manipulation. But these dudes are trying to be martyrs for polygamy as
36:36
if they haven't benefited to the infantry, especially Cody Brown, with all of
36:39
these women working except for fucking Robin, except for Robin, and all of
36:45
these women giving their bodies and their homes and their children to him. Yeah,
36:49
as if it was their choice to do this. No, this is
36:52
a tenet of your religion. This is something that is an article of your
36:54
faith that you believe, and they also believe this does not benefit women.
36:59
And this is when Nathan, that big old Lummix, said something like,
37:02
it takes a lot of Hubrists to judge Cody going through a divorce whatever.
37:07
And I've got a lot of Hubrists, I guess. I guess that's what
37:10
we have. That's what you call it. And didn't he say that when
37:14
he was going through his divorce he would not have wanted it to be filmed
37:17
either, Yes, because I would have looked terrible. And so I feel,
37:22
you know, I hope people watching this can feel like they have some
37:24
compassion for Cody. It's like, no, he's been an ass this whole
37:28
entire time. It's not like we just now came to the revelation that Cody's
37:31
been a dick. We've been seeing this first seventeen fucking seasons of how he's
37:36
been treating the wives. So don't sit there and do this fucking pr stunt
37:39
for Cody Brown acting like he's some fucking saint that's been wronged by fucking Christine
37:45
and Janelle. You're not a friend to enable narcissistic, abusive behavior. That
37:50
doesn't make you a better person, It doesn't make you a better Mormon.
37:52
It makes you complicit in the abuse of these women and these children. And
37:57
that's how I am looking at you, Nathan, ma'am. Now, this
38:00
is what kind of sets up the conversation where Cody says that because Janelle and
38:07
Christine asked to come into the relationship with Mary, that he had to give
38:15
them special requirements, the first being they could only be with him, I
38:21
think, the second being that he was going to have other women and that
38:23
they were just going to have to get right about it period. But Robin
38:28
was invited, which makes a special distinction. So maybe she doesn't have to
38:32
be okay with him having other women, I guess. And Mary was courted
38:37
and he chose her, and so I don't know what I was just like.
38:40
So then Janelle comes in and says kind of what we're all thinking,
38:44
which is, oh, because we asked to come into the relationship, which,
38:47
by the way, is the way that we do it in our religion.
38:50
When we're supposed to ask because they've got a special testimony on their heart
38:52
of the father, and so they're going to ask. But because we asked,
38:57
we're not entitled to the same things as these others. It's fucking well.
39:00
And then Cody's like, well, but they asked to be in this
39:04
family, they chose to be in it, and then they chose to leave
39:07
after they had already benefited from it and been in this family. It's like,
39:09
but they chose to leave because of you, Cody. I don't know
39:14
why you can't get that through your thick fucking skull with It's maybe it's the
39:17
curls. And for years you kept on saying and it's their choice if they
39:21
want to leave, If anybody wants to leave, they absolutely can't. But
39:22
then all of a sudden, Christine wants to leave. And she's the worst
39:27
person in the world, and she's your justification for being the devil, for
39:30
being a toxic person and being terrible to your children. But I thought she
39:35
had every right in the world to leave. I thought she was allowed to
39:37
be. Okay, it's because he never thought she would leave, Maybe because
39:42
she was the aub princess and so he thought she was a shoein, she
39:45
was going to be super loyal. Like maybe he thought like Mary would have
39:47
been the first and he would have been like, fine, that's cool,
39:50
because you already sucked on a banana, So you're allowed to leave because I
39:53
don't want anything to do with you. Right. Maybe it's because the audacity
39:58
of the aub princess to leave Cody and call him an asshole and yeah,
40:04
in such a public way. Yeah, this is when Nate tells Cody he's
40:07
going to have to reconcile with the man in the mirror. And we have
40:12
Cody talking about his pervasive, dark and intrusive thoughts and this is query I
40:17
was just really getting the vibe that he is not a good person. It's
40:22
not that you're having a mental health crisis. It's not that you're going through
40:25
a supremely low time in your life because you're going through divorce, which I've
40:30
been through that and it's really tough. Yeah, it's that, No,
40:32
you're probably thinking about violent things. You're probably thinking about doing actual harm to
40:38
people. And I would assume this means your wife. And maybe I'm taking
40:42
liberties here, but the vibe of what he was saying when he was talking
40:45
about the kind of thoughts that he's actually thinking, I'm like, oh,
40:49
you're thinking really ugly, terrible thoughts. I mean, like hurting people thoughts,
40:52
hurting Christine thoughts. That's the vibe that I got from it too.
40:57
And with him gritting his teeth and everything, he's like, I want to
41:00
warned right now. It's like, okay, dude, chill the fuck out.
41:04
First of all, right, you're fifty something. Calm the fuck down.
41:07
You're fifty something. I mean, you're a grown man. You've had
41:09
a lot of life experience, you have all of these children. Are you
41:13
really going to indulge this terrible behavior? All? The answer is yes,
41:16
yes. And he's like, well, if you think I'm an asshole,
41:19
let me show you what being an asshole actually looks like. And with a
41:22
gleeful little smile on his face, he's happy to show you how I want
41:27
to fuck you over. I get a little worried sometimes forge now, Yeah,
41:31
I get a little worried sometimes for Robin. Yeah, I wonder about
41:37
what is actually going on with Robin and Cody's relationship, because in this segment,
41:43
like it's difficulty, he directs all of this stuff at me, and
41:47
I have a hard time because I'm wondering, are you just saying that so
41:52
again you can align with the wives that they can think you're one of them
41:54
so that they can continue to give you money, or are you crying out
41:58
for help because is more than just emotionally and verbally abusive at home. I
42:05
don't know, That's what I wonder too. I was watching this episode thinking
42:08
like, Okay, maybe Robin's telling some truth, because like, what's the
42:13
motivation for her to be throwing him under the bus like that if that's untrue.
42:16
I mean, I guess because she wants to take some of the heat
42:20
off of herself and her eyebrows. Maybe that's why. But I don't know.
42:23
That's kind of some strong accusations because didn't she say, like was it
42:27
a couple episodes ago or last season or something where she was like, you
42:30
know, I'm worried because he's angry all the time and he's taking all of
42:34
that out on me and my kids. I'm like, oh, yes,
42:37
yike. Cody says to Nathan that he doesn't want Robin to know just how
42:43
dark his thoughts actually get, or just how awful and evil he actually feels
42:50
himself to be. And then I'm thinking to myself, but you're perfectly fine
42:52
for Janelle's Now, you're perfectly fine to lean forward in the argument with Janelle
42:57
and point your finger at her and point your finger at the camera and be
43:00
as toxic as possible without physical violence. Yeah, you're okay with that,
43:04
but God forbid. Robin gets a glimpse of what's really in my dark heart,
43:07
as he says with fake tears in his eyes. But then he also
43:12
says which I thought was kind of a little bit genuine, where he was
43:15
crying and saying like, I've always tried so hard to be the good guy,
43:19
and now I really don't want to be the good guy anymore, like
43:22
in my life. And I was like, dang, because it showed some
43:24
of his earlier photos where he looked happy and you can see the blue in
43:29
his eyes, and now his eyes are fucking dark and demon like, and
43:31
I'm like, the whites of his eyes are actually kind of red. Yeah,
43:35
everything about him is like red and angry. This is tearing him up.
43:37
His curls are super tight, super angry. This is where he also
43:44
says something about his urge to break everything yeah, and to move on and
43:47
find something that's not broken, And it kind of sounded like he was also
43:52
talking about Robin, I know, and their situation, like he has an
43:57
urge to just walk away. And this is where she said, if he
44:00
left me, I'd be devastated and he would regret it for the rest of
44:02
his life. What do you mean, Robin, What do you think she
44:07
means financial? Well, I mean she's legally married to him. Take him
44:09
for everything. Yeah, you will regret it. And also you're never going
44:13
to have a break dancing put mine. So Cody also talks about his two
44:20
youngest children still loving him and as long as they love him, he wants
44:23
to be there for them. And I'm like, all of your kids,
44:27
what about truly though truly loving? I think Savannah also loves you. Who's
44:30
a lot of your kids probably still love you. I think Gabe is crying
44:34
on national television because he actually loves you. I think they all really love
44:38
you. Yeah, but you only want to be there for the littles.
44:40
And it was kind of conspicuous that he didn't mention Dayton, Banna and Aurora
44:45
just a little. So maybe that do you think they don't like him.
44:49
I don't know. I'm wondering if maybe there's a little bit because I think
44:52
didn't they kick out Dayton into the RV oh yeah, over a COVID thing,
44:57
which is what the rumor is, and then we had somebody living in
45:00
the basement because they were going to school back and forth. So maybe there's
45:04
some issues with him and Robin's three oldest kids. Or maybe he's just that
45:09
kind of a person who makes a distinction between his biological children and his adopted
45:15
children, even though his adopted children love him just as much. Yeah,
45:19
they're just a fucking asshole. Maybe he only gives attention to the littles.
45:22
Usually, my dad's kind of like that. My dad was really good with
45:24
like little kids and us as younger, and then like the second we became
45:29
teenagers and like could speak for ourselves and have attitude, he's like, yeah,
45:32
I don't want nothing to do with you. Wow. I know.
45:35
So maybe Cody's like that too, because it seems like he's caring so much
45:37
about the littles. Yeah, but then you have truly who he just doesn't
45:40
give a buck about. Yeah, you really, you can't use that kind
45:45
of logic, which I have truly, right, he just doesn't care about
45:47
truly. And you had Isabel who was a minor getting surgery, and you
45:51
just don't care about Isabel. And you have Savannah who is a miner at
45:53
Christmas and you just don't care about Savannah, who would really love for you
45:58
to be there. So it's not compute, does not this entire conversation with
46:02
Nathan. Your pr stunt isn't coming across the way you think it is,
46:07
my guy, Nope, it's making you look worse. And Nathan, you
46:09
look like a weirdo I know of a man. Shout out to Ethel,
46:15
she gave me that turn. Totally all right. And then we get to
46:20
the final segment where we have Christine visiting Janelle and some of the kids go
46:25
and see Cody, and so when Christine and her kids come over, they
46:30
have a snowball fight. Yeah, and it kind of just feels like it
46:34
goes right back to the family. Yeah, big holiday celebratory vibes that they're
46:40
used to, and you can just tell they're actually really happy to see one
46:44
another, of course, and I mean all these kids like grew up together,
46:46
so of course they just kind of go back into the rhythm of things,
46:50
and Cody's not there to put a damper on it. So it is
46:52
kind of sweet given the terribleness of this situation. Yes, and we have
46:58
that scene with Gabe and Garrison and Savannah on the couch, and this is
47:01
where Gabe says that he feels like his father and Robin didn't make enough of
47:07
an effort and it wasn't like they slided him specifically, but he does absolutely
47:13
feel like they neglected him. And he included Robin in that, which is
47:17
nice thing, right, because maybe it really does matter that she love him,
47:22
maybe he really does want a relationship with her. Well, she's kind
47:25
of complicit in it too. I mean, all the other wives care about
47:30
fucking Gabe and Garrison. They care about all of the kids, right,
47:32
And Robin has made it clear that if you don't make your allegiances to me
47:37
and your loyalty to me, then I'm not going to like you. And
47:39
if you don't give me an apology for nothing for calling them and saying her
47:46
bullshit and I'm blaming you right after they hadn't seen him for eight or nine
47:50
months, Yeah, then of course then I don't want anything to do with
47:53
you. But then it is the next fucking scene. Ye, Robin's crying,
47:58
crying and saying, you know, well, the boys don't want to
48:01
see me, and it's just so heartbreaking. And if I felt like they
48:06
actually wanted to be a part of mine or my children's lives or my holidays,
48:10
I would have pushed for that to happen. Just last episode, when
48:15
Mary recommends, or Mary suggests rather that they call everybody over to her house
48:20
for Christmas Eve, she is the one who said, but that's scary.
48:22
It's a scary thought. I don't feel safe. Yeah, I mean kids
48:25
won't feel safe. So I don't don't know about that. So I thought
48:30
that's how you felt about it. But now all of a sudden, maybe
48:32
it's getting back to you what the kids are saying, and they're talking heads,
48:36
and now you want to act like if there was any inclination, any
48:39
inkling that the kids want to be with you, I would push for it.
48:43
Lies, lies, gaslighting, overt gas but dumb gaslighting gaslighting that's easily
48:51
disproven by just watching the previous episode. You don't stupid. Then we have
48:57
Gabe saying on the couch that they actually have reached out to Cody. Yep,
49:02
I don't remember if he said that. There was no response to that,
49:06
but he said they've reached out. And then we have Cody saying that
49:09
he was the one to reach out to them and he was rejected over and
49:14
over, which I don't believe for a fucking minute. I mean, I
49:17
think rejection for Cody is probably just them trying to express how they feel and
49:22
how they've felt like he's been neglecting them, and he's like, well,
49:27
fine, fuck you then, right Honestly, like that's probably the rejection that
49:30
Cody's talking about. And like I said in our reaction, like, if
49:34
I have a choice, I'm going to believe the person who hasn't lied over
49:39
and over again, over again, across seasons to our face. And that's
49:43
when you go to you've been the one who's been lying, and it's not
49:45
been Gabe. Gabe has been the one that's been crying ye and putting his
49:49
heart on his sleeve, And so yeah, I don't believe you. And
49:52
also in the previous episode, you said the phone goes both ways, right,
49:54
you haven't called the kids, so like, which is it? What
49:58
is liars? You've been reaching out repeatedly or you haven't reached out at all
50:00
because you're pissed off at them. Still while the reality is and Janelle confirms
50:05
it that he didn't reach out. Nope, he didn't reach out. He's
50:07
expecting her to be the carrier pigeon that relays all of his thoughts and desires.
50:12
But then when she doesn't do it exactly the way he wants to have
50:15
her do it, he blames her. Yep, yeah, blames her for
50:19
the destruction of I just feel like he's a terrible person with no reason value
50:22
agreed at all. Then we get to McKelty, truly an asking going over
50:28
to Cody's and Robin has reserved some of the Christmas presents for her kids so
50:34
that they can also open presents when the other kids are there. That was
50:37
on purpose. That was on purpose, And that was a mound of fucking
50:40
gifts that she reserves. Yeah, there were a ton of gifts under the
50:45
tree on Christmas Day, and then she got a ton of other presents to
50:49
put under the tree for her kids and make her kids feel included. Truly,
50:52
McKelty, and ask me, now, this is when we have Christine
50:57
saying that McKelty is a bridge because Chelty is neutral. And this is where
51:01
I said to you, no, fuck that shit. Machelty is not neutral,
51:05
certainly not in the r verl or twenty twenty three when she has a
51:07
Patreon where she's constantly running defense for defending Cody and Robin. Even when Cody
51:14
is abusing Janelle on television, she's not calling him out. So no,
51:17
she's not neutral. No, nor is she abridge. She's availing herself of
51:22
every opportunity she has. And it probably goes back to what we've said.
51:27
I think it was a couple episodes ago now that Mickelty may seek approval from
51:31
Cody and Robin, so that's probably why she tries to play both sides and
51:36
everything. But Robin did say in this episode, Mackelty has made it clear
51:40
that she is neutral, and I'm like, Okay, what are you getting
51:45
at with that? Are you really expecting McKelty to turn against her mom?
51:50
Because none of the kids have turned against their mom, So I don't know
51:53
why you would even say something. Because McKelty actually said I'm neutral. I
51:59
think McKelty went to Cody and Robin because this is her opportunity to finally be
52:04
the golden child. Like we have discussed. So she goes to Code and
52:07
Robin and she's like, I'm on your side. I totally see where you're
52:10
coming from because on her own Patreon, her and Tony were like, yeah,
52:15
Robin was excluded. She wasn't part of the click and neither was McKelty,
52:19
so we can totally relate. So I can see McKelty saying I get
52:22
it, I believe you. I'm on your side, and availing herself of
52:25
any opportunity that might give her. And we discussed well, I wonder if
52:30
there's a monetary benefit for McKelty for siding with Cody and Robin, maybe more
52:35
of an opportunity to be filmed, maybe some other kind of a kickback that
52:38
she might get from them because they approve of her. And she also avails
52:44
herself of the benefit of being Christine's daughter. They just went on this London
52:46
trip, right, they went all over Europe. I'm not sure if McKelty
52:50
paid for anything or whether Christine and David paid for everything. But she's playing
52:53
both sides. That's not a fucking bridge. That's a two faced I don't
52:58
like McKelty right there, but that's a person who's two faced. That's a
53:01
person who's parasitical. Yeah, and who's taking what she can get from everybody
53:07
involved. Right, I've no, really gross. Yeah, it's really freaking
53:10
gross, especially if what we've talked about before with Cody not accepting Leon and
53:16
their transition and all this stuff. I'm like, especially with all of that
53:20
in the background, like, how could you even try and be friends or
53:24
be on good terms with Cody and Robin? Like, if you love all
53:29
of your other siblings, I don't understand how you can even try and justify
53:31
all of this. But she says, and she said on her Patreon that
53:36
the show just edits them badly. That's her justification for it. I'm like,
53:39
really, I can't really, So are you really actually believing Cody and
53:45
Robin's bullshit? No, you're just playing the late She's incentivized to take that
53:50
position. She went to Hayden's wedding, where Robin and Cody showed up two
53:54
hours late. They missed the actual wedding the nuptiles. They showed up late
53:59
to the rest option. They didn't bring the littles because I think Robin wants
54:02
to keep the littles away from LGBTQI. A displays. I mean, that's
54:08
just the theory that people are running with, and I can kind of see
54:12
it. She doesn't want the littles to be around Gwen and her big battles.
54:15
Yeah, wife and McKelty, if you even have a hint of a
54:20
vibe like that, you aren't going to call that out in the Year of
54:22
Our Lord twenty twenty three on your Patreon. I mean, I have no
54:25
respect for her. I don't have respect for her either. Maybe it is
54:29
because she wants to be the Golden child, so she's just sucking up and
54:31
enabling all of it. But I'm like, I can't relate. I can't
54:37
we hear Cody saying that he's struggling to reach out to Janelle's family because it's
54:40
Janelle's family that are a source of my pain. So that's why you're not
54:45
going to talk to your kids, even though Savannah has done literally nothing wrong,
54:49
Like Janelle says, like, you can't even reach out to Savannah,
54:52
who's done absolutely nothing to me. She's connected to Janelle, and because he
54:55
has an offense, he's harboring an offense against Janelle, he will not reach
55:00
out to his beautiful daughter, Savannah petty. We end this episode with Cody
55:05
saying essentially that he knows that he has to change, but he's just not
55:08
ready to do it yet. And there'll be other Christmases, So who cares
55:13
if I fuck this one up? Who cares if I do incredible damage to
55:16
my children this Christmas? There'll be other ones and it'll be all right in
55:20
the future, and it'll be fine. That's so fucking delusional, dude,
55:23
because everybody's going to remember the one Christmas that we spent all a part.
55:28
This is the first Christmas ever that they've spent all apart like this and so
55:34
fucking separated. It's crazy. It's like there's literally a divide halfway in between
55:37
the family. Two wives over there, two wives over here with the rest
55:42
of the fucking family. Yes, and you're the patriarch, You're the leader.
55:45
The buck stops with you, and so you're responsible for the condition of
55:49
your family. Whether I want to be or not. I know you want
55:52
to be this little bitch boy who wants to complain and have your season of
55:54
hatred for Christine and the rest of your family. But that's not what adults
55:59
do, certainly not what adult parents do. You step up. You do
56:01
the honorable thing. You take care of your children, you take care of
56:05
your wives. Yes, and you don't know you don't know how to do
56:07
that. Nope, because you're essentially a terrible person. To not prefer you.
56:13
I do not prefer him either. I think it's too much effort for
56:15
him to maintain the rest of the family in his mind. I'm not saying
56:19
it's too much effort in general, because you're the one that fucking created this
56:22
old family, dude, But I think in his mind it's like too much
56:25
work for him to try and fix the rest of the family. So it's
56:30
just easier with my smaller family that's still valid, by the way, so
56:34
small but not unimportant. It's beautiful. I love my small family that I've
56:38
replaced with the rest of my kids. So that's what I think. I
56:43
think he's just like, I don't want to deal with it. That's why
56:45
he's pushing everybody away. It's why he doesn't want to make any effort with
56:49
the kids. But is he ever going to like have an epiphany, is
56:52
he ever going to realize, holy fuck, I love these people, I've
56:55
driven them away, or is he just going to live out the rest of
56:59
his life, getting more bitter and more bitter and pretending none of it is
57:01
happening, and going no contact with his actual children. Like, is that
57:06
what he's gonna do? I mean, that's what it seems like. It's
57:07
feel riding it. Yeah, but he needs to do some like Ayahuascar or
57:10
some shit. Yeah, he needs to have a trip. He has to
57:14
go see the little elves, do some Dmtsody's meeting with Jesus. God,
57:19
Jesus didn't die for all this. He died for you to be a good
57:22
dad to your family and a good husband to your wives. If it takes
57:24
some responsibility for your bad behavior, it's okay. We've all done shit in
57:30
life. We've made bad decisions. But like, you don't get to spend
57:32
two years, three years, and it's been a long time. It hasn't
57:36
just been since COVID, right, it was happening in Vegas. You don't
57:38
get to just do your favorites and treat your family like this and pretend it's
57:43
not happening. I mean, it's crazy, dude. Remember when he's talking
57:46
about his small but not unimportant and beautiful family with Robin, he's also saying,
57:52
can I make the adjustment from having a big family to having this small
57:55
but beautiful and not an important family. And I'm like, no, you
57:58
can't make that adjustment. You have a big family, literally have eighteen other
58:01
children, or you literally have all of these other people that are part of
58:05
your family. You can't adjust your way out of the reality of that.
58:09
And the fact that you would even ask that question is disgusting. It's super
58:13
fucking gross, dude, Like, these kids have done nothing to you.
58:15
I mean, I guess besides Gabe and Garrison for having the balls to confront
58:20
you on your bullshit and your beloved wife and call her out on her Bullshit's
58:25
that is the ultimate audacity and betrayal to beauty that you would call my beloved
58:31
soulmate, Robin an accuser of any wrongdoing whatsoever. But she's not my favorite
58:36
wife, you guys. Yeah, no, no, no, no,
58:37
I don't have favorite completely fair with everybody. Get the fuck adda here?
58:43
Well the preview, I'm not even remembering what's going on with the preview,
58:46
do you? There's not much besides uh, Mary saying Cyanara bitches, oh,
58:51
and Christine's like, oh, Robin knew the entire time that she had
58:53
more time with Cody, and this is why I don't trust her. And
58:57
Robin even says like I I think she says too Mary and like a weird
59:01
talking thing. Outside of their house, She's like, well, there were
59:05
a lot of times where Cody didn't visit my house and didn't I didn't get
59:08
to have as much time with him. Oh bitch, police, police,
59:15
Oh my gosh. I'm here for it. I am I'm here for the
59:17
entire raveling of the Brown family. I am here for these women reclaiming their
59:23
agency and their Yeah, i am here for Janelle suing the fuck out of
59:29
Robin and Cody Hope. And I'm wondering what she does to get her hands,
59:34
her hot little hands on that one hundred and forty thousand dollars, which
59:37
is rumored that they took a loan out against the equity in the McMansion to
59:40
give her that money cash liquid. Wouldn't that be so cool if we got
59:44
to see that she probably threatened to sue him. I mean, I would
59:46
love Oh my god, please see please, I'm here for all of it.
59:52
So we will be back next week to talk sister wives. We will
59:54
not be back next week on Wednesday or Thursday for Plathville, or the following
59:59
week because she's going on vacation. I'm going to Gloriado, but we will
1:00:04
be back later this week Wednesday or Thursday, depending on whether you're a patron
1:00:07
to talk about Platville yea to day fiance. Yes, the last resort.
1:00:13
Did you see the sneak peak with Angela and the vibrator and her chasing Yara,
1:00:17
chasing Yara around with the vibrator. Oh my god, what is this
1:00:22
that? Thank you to wait, dumpster diving at its finest, so fucking
1:00:27
trashy baby. So we'll be back to talk about that in just a couple
1:00:30
of days. And is there anything else that we need to say to these
1:00:32
