1:11

1:17
laps. This show is awesome, So you can only find that on Patreon,

It really helps us to grow. Thank you, Dumpster, thank you
1:33
so much. And by the way, bitch, bitch, this is our
1:36
one hundredth podcast apps WHOA Crazy. I don't even know how we made it
1:42
to a hundred. I don't know either. We've just been meeting and talking
1:46
and drinking and vaping and having fun and you know, just having fun with
1:51
our favorite trashy television shows. And I'm just guy out. A bunch of
1:53
other people on the internet found us and wanted to have fun with us.
1:59
So thank y'all so much, Thank you so much. We are celebrating our
2:01
one hundredth episode feeling like a professional podcast. I mean we are professional.
2:06
We have a whole ass sign over here, thank you, like we're here
2:07
to say something and I think it's important. Thank you in advance. All
2:12
right, before we get into the episode, is there any hot gss that
2:15
you want to go over? I think there's something right, well, there's
2:17
only a couple of things that I saw on without a Crystal Balls in the
2:21
ram page. I just thought they were interesting And the only reason why we
2:23
bring them up is because they're coming directly from mckelty's Patreon, which is interesting
2:28
because McKelty, as we all know, is the bridge of the family.
2:30
And so she is playing both sides, if you will, and trying to
2:35
do some pr for her dad and Robin for some reason, but then also
2:38
trying to throw a little shade here and there. But two things came out.
2:43
One, she did confirm that all of the paintings and artwork that Robin
2:49
and Cody have in their house are one. So does that mean not prince
2:54
or like they're real? Okay, they're from the actual artist, okay.
2:59
And she said that Cody's justification for all the fancy artwork and the jewelry and
3:04
all the other bullshit that they spend their money on is because he thinks of
3:07
them as investments in their future, and so that's why he spends thousands upon
3:12
thousands of dollars on artwork for Robin's home. And same thing with the jewelry
3:15
is what she mentioned as well. So I thought that was weird. Well,
3:17
I mean, it does make sense because artwork can be an investment first
3:22
of all, and personally I think that artwork is booty. Yeah, I
3:25
don't think it at all. I wouldn't be spending ten thousand dollars for one
3:30
of those paintings. But the thing is, second Lee, that it must
3:34
be quite the luxury to be able to have investments like that while Janelle is
3:38
outliving in the RV in the fifth Wheel, or living in her dormitory apartment,
3:43
or we've got Christine, you know, trying to hustle up some plexus
3:46
so that she can take care of her kids. Meanwhile, you've got all
3:49
of these prints and all of this jewelry and this Dickenzie village, the Dickenzie
3:53
and village. I cannot get over it. I know if all this shit
3:55
in your house and so much shit we don't even know about in the horder
4:00
house. Yeah, so it must be nice. Must really be able to
4:02
invest like that, Cody, and only invest in one particular future, not
4:06
anybody else's Future's really nice? And where did you get the money for that?
4:11
Exactly? Was it from the Cody Brown l C. Janelle's money?
4:15
Is it Janelle's money, is it Mary's money? Is it Christine's money?
4:18
Yeah, it's Janelle's money that he's investing into his future with Robin. It's
4:23
pretty wild. And then the other thing that is kind of a weird little
4:27
tidbit if y'all remember that Dayton, Robin's eldest son, got into an ATV
4:32
accident many years ago, and this was actually on the show, and on
4:35
the show, Robin and Cody's narrative about it was that Dayton was out of
4:42
town with friends when he had this accident. But then McKelty recently on her
4:46
patron in the Year of Our Lord twenty twenty three, revealed that he was
4:50
actually out of town in Saint George with Cody and Robin. So Cody was
4:56
there in present during Dayton's accident, and you were telling me before we filmed
5:00
this that Hunter was there too, and he was the one that, like,
5:03
I think it was a boy's trip. I don't know if Robin was
5:05
there actually, so maybe it was just I thought it was Cody and the
5:09
boys. And so after the accident happened with Dayton, it was Hunter that
5:14
actually took like, and this is a little bit graphic, and I apologize,
5:17
but took the flaps of his face and actually put them back together.
5:21
And then held them in place until emergency services got there. So Hunter was
5:28
actually helping him a lot. But yeah, Cody was the parent that was
5:31
in charge and responsible, and so that makes it crazy to me that for
5:35
Christmas twenty twenty one he's buying her children mini bikes because I think she has
5:41
trauma. Yeah, what happened to Dayton totally because it was a super traumatic
5:44
accident. I mean that poor kid had all these stitches and shit, and
5:46
he had to have all these surgeries, Like wild to me. But why
5:49
would they lie on TV about it and say that he was out of town
5:54
with friends and like Cody wasn't involved in any way. That's what's weird to
5:58
me, Like why is she covering for Cody because Cody didn't want to look
6:00
bad? Yes, I think, and we even see it in this episode,
6:04
Like Cody and his image, Cody doesn't want criticism. Cody doesn't want
6:10
everybody to know kind of the inner workings of who he is and what the
6:13
family is doing. So I just think that he didn't want to put it
6:15
out there on Front Street. So they made a peace story and Dayton kept
6:18
a secret. That's sad. Yeah, and so did Hunter and so did
6:21
the boys that were on that trip. Oh, this family, I swear,
6:25
But I mean, do you remember when they went up to Wyoming and
6:28
Michelt fell off the horse? Yeah, I mean she was also out with
6:30
Cody. Yes, horses, right, and so obviously she got a wild
6:33
hair and she went riding off and she fell off the horse and she got
6:36
hurt. But again there's one parent that's present, and it's him. The
6:42
common denominator is Cody breaks Cody brown interesting information, just a little bit,
6:47
all right, are you ready to get into this episode? Yeah? Into
6:50
this boring as episode, kind of boring, kind of boring. Again,
6:54
it's called airing the Dirty Laundry. And essentially, we've got a couple of
6:59
scenes with Christie in Salt Lake City. We have a scene with Truly and
7:03
Isabelle. Yeah, Cody and Robin's house, which I thought was very that
7:08
was very interesting. Lots of nuances happening. And then we have a lot
7:12
of revealed information from Mary Browne over two different segments. So why don't we
7:16
go in order? Here? We start by heading over to Salt Lake City.
7:20
You talk to Christine's very happy home. We have Michelti and Tony over
7:27
and I think Isabelle is there and truly is there? Gas Been's there too,
7:32
maybe yeah, Peydon, that's right, Peyton was there. And this
7:34
is where we learn the news that she's pregnant, but not just with one
7:40
baby, she got two babies in her belly. What did you think about
7:45
this scene? I mean, I don't care. I don't care either.
7:47
Plus we've already heard about all of it. And if you're on Reddit,
7:51
you've already seen like pictures from when she gave birth with Robin holding her two
7:56
babies as if she was the mother. We've already been here. Yeah,
7:59
we've already that. I just don't care. It was just like a long
8:03
ass segment and the whole entire time, I'm just like, why why are
8:05
we starting with this? Like I would be happy for it if I got
8:09
to see it in present day. Yeah, but these kids are like what
8:11
seven or eight months old now? Yes? Or a year? Yeah?
8:16
Like walking and talking, I mean, I having full last conversations with their
8:20
parents at this point, they're driving cars, they're dating girls. I just
8:24
don't care. And then Tony just act in all shell shocked. He's like,
8:28
oh, I don't know, I can handle this, like, shut
8:31
up, what do you mean you don't have a job. What also are
8:33
you going to do except for taking care of your kids. I know that
8:35
is your full time job now. Yeah. Yeah, and then they have
8:39
them on the couch, kind of talking about when Michelti found out that she
8:43
was having twins and she she didn't expect it necessarily, but apparently she always
8:46
wanted them. Yeah, she always wanted twins. And so she got the
8:50
news and she was like, oh, okay, she just rolled with it.
8:52
But then Tony got the news and he was like crying. Yeah he's
8:56
super terrified. Yeah, very terrified. I mean, I guess I get
8:58
it, because I mean it's kind of a lot like you expected to have
9:01
a second kid, now you get three kids, you know, but like,
9:05
Okay, calm down, I don't care. Congratulations, you're gonna have
9:07
twin sets. Beautiful, you have a beautiful family. Next. Yeah.
9:11
I feel like Tony and mackelty overestimate their importance to the franchise truly. I
9:18
did notice, though, how different they looked in their talking head. They
9:22
look like they've each lost about one hundred pounds. Have you been following them
9:24
on Instagram? They have been losing a lot of weight. I don't follow
9:28
them on Instagram because they cannot stand either of them. Yeah, I mean,
9:31
I don't like them either, but I see them on Instagram from time
9:33
to time, popping up on the feed, and they've lost a lot of
9:35
weight. Yeah, I've seen them looking really gray. But I'm just like
9:41
shocked when you compare and contrast just how much weight they have lost. They
9:43
were pretty tubby, Yeah they were. And I know I know of Tubby
9:48
because I'm very about Tubby Rex. Shit, what I am so I could
9:50
spot it. Those kids have lost weight. They look great, They do
9:54
look like great. Is actually and I have to say this, it's actually
9:58
beautiful, Yeah she is. She's actually really pretty well beautiful hair, Oh
10:05
my god, hair goals. Yeah. Then we have Cody popping on in
10:07
and saying something like that twins don't run on his side of the family,
10:13
so those twins must be on Tony's side of the family. But then Tony
10:16
says that he doesn't have twins on his side of the family at all,
10:18
and needed does Christine, So it's just kind of a one off. It's
10:22
a miracle, it's a blessing. Beatrice. Then we pop on over to
10:26
Parawan, Utah with some morose, depressive music, and we have Mary in
10:33
her haunted B and B with that terrible wall paper I want her to take
10:39
care of, don't you change? We need to modernize the b B.
10:45
But she's talking about the fact that she just had her thirty second anniversary with
10:50
Cody Brown, and like half the day had already gone by, she hadn't
10:54
heard from him, so she called him and she's like, happy end of
10:58
her nursery and he's like, oh, yeah, I ask, so I
11:03
guess it's our anniversary. Yeah, And then I guess they go out to
11:07
dinner. He goes to pick her up, she suggests it. She's like,
11:09
do you want to go for a drive? Would you like to go
11:11
out to eat? And he's like, well, I mean I am watching
11:13
the kids. Really your babysitting your own children, which is something I know
11:18
that you love to do. And then he's like, but so I have
11:20
to ask Robin. Yeah, so you're watching the kids. But Robin's there
11:22
is She in her bed until noon, just sleeping, dozing, probably staring
11:26
at the Deckenzie's village, just thinking about the next piece she's going to be
11:31
acquiring because she's bidding on it on fucking eBay and I'm gonna get gus that.
11:35
Yeah, is that where she is? Yeah, so he's watching the
11:41
kids, but really his talking head, he tells us that he needs to
11:43
think, like what is he going to do? Does he really want to
11:46
go? Is that the right thing to do under these circumstances? And then
11:50
I guess he decides that he'll see her, So he calls her back and
11:54
says, Okay, I'll pick you up. And then we get some old
11:56
footage of Cody jumping into his truck I think from when he was going to
11:58
go level the fifth Will for Janelle. Yeah, so they're just recycling this
12:03
old footage and all of these old pictures. I'm like, what are you
12:05
doing, production company? I'm tired of it and I'm tired of seeing all
12:09
of the same pictures of Mary and Cody too. Like, while Mary's talking
12:13
about their relationship, like we get it, they're never going to get back
12:16
together. Cody hates her and doesn't love her. Apparently, it's just like
12:20
so annoying you to have to go back at is episode after episode after episode
12:26
a rehashing of something that we already know. I feel like this season is
12:31
complete filler like stuff again that they're just putting together to make a season,
12:35
But they're going to release a new season maybe in April, like I've been
12:39
talking about the last couple of times we've been meeting about Sister Wives, Like
12:41
I just can't believe this is the season and the gag is is that it's
12:46
one of the highest review watch rated seasons of all time for Sister Wives.
12:50
Yeah, so what incentive do these hoe ass producers have to give us a
12:56
better season next time? They don't have any incentive. It's just like how
13:01
we were talking before we film this, like we don't know if there's going
13:03
to be a tell all, and we've been talking about this the whole season,
13:07
like we don't know how many more episodes we're going to have. We
13:09
probably have at least a couple like two or three and then maybe some tell
13:13
alls. But like if they don't do a tell all this season, then
13:20
if they do so it all this season, then it's going to feel to
13:22
me like they're splitting the season into like we're going to get a fall season
13:28
and then we're going to get a spring season of kind of the same timeline.
13:31
That's what I think might be happening. And then if they re release
13:33
next year in the fall again, maybe they can bring us up to speed
13:37
and we can all meet again in the year twenty twenty four in our current
13:41
day timeline. That's just crazy. That's my dream as a raccoon. Can
13:45
we fucking catch up to what everybody else speed up? Man back to this
13:50
date with Cody and Mary. So she's having, you know, a dinner
13:54
with him, and he makes reference to faking the relationship yeah, and she's
14:00
like, well, what do you mean faking the relationship? Actually does this
14:03
with his hand, like me and you we're faking this relationship, and she's
14:07
like, I'm not faking. And then we get into the conversation where Cody,
14:11
I guess, finally tells her straight out it is never, not ever
14:16
going to happen between you and me. I cannot see myself interjecting myself into
14:22
your life in any way. I don't want to. I don't want this.
14:24
We do not have Actually what I wrote it down, what does he
14:26
say? He says, quote, but we're not met, and then he
14:31
stops himself yeah, and then he says, but we're not living like we're
14:35
married. But what he really wanted to say is we're not even married.
14:39
Yeah, so, and her heart started speeding up because it was literally physically
14:45
breaking in her chest. And like, while I'm watching all of this,
14:48
I'm like feeling for Mary, and I understand that she's upset, but yeah,
14:52
I feel like she's been told this last a couple of years. She's
14:56
been shown this the last couple of years, And I'm like, Mary,
14:58
why is this so surprising to you? You have been the only one wanting
15:01
to actually try. He has not wanted to try the last several years of
15:05
your marriage. You say it yourself in this episode that you guys haven't had
15:09
much of a marriage in the last eight years. Why do you even want
15:13
to try? And I understand that it's about her faith and that it's this
15:16
eternal marriage that they signed up for, and like they have these spiritual beliefs
15:22
that they're called to, but I'm just like, at a certain point in
15:26
time, you got to realize that it's never going to be it the way
15:30
you want it to be. It's never going to be what it was when
15:33
you guys were nineteen and twenty two. It's just never going to go back
15:37
to that because he found his soulmate and it's not you, and he convinced
15:41
you stupidly to divorce his ass so that way he could marry his soulmate and
15:46
be legally married. And you're still going on about this and saying, well,
15:52
I'm trying, I'm not faking it, I'm not leaving. I still
15:54
learn with the family. I just think she's pining. She mentioned in this
16:00
episode again her values. I think her spiritual religious values are very important to
16:04
her. I also think that Cody and Mary had a real love story totally
16:10
back in the day. I remember the season one footage. I remember when
16:14
Robin got married and she was fixing his tie, which they showed twice or
16:18
something in this episode. The way they looked at each other, the way
16:21
they danced at that wedding, the way they had passion. I could tell
16:23
that they were fucking fucking. There was passion. And in a later segment,
16:29
Mary actually says that Cody has the nerve to say I never loved you.
16:33
I was only ever just trying to affirm our vows. So crazy to
16:37
me, And that was right after she said that. During their whole relationship,
16:42
anytime that she asked him like do you still love me or whatever?
16:45
Still care about me? Anytime she had doubts, he was always there to
16:49
reassure her, and she always believed that. And then to turn around and
16:53
say, no, I've never loved you, just like he said with Christine,
16:56
I was never attracted to you. I loved you. He's using the
17:00
same exact fucking story. This is the definition of gaslighting. Yes, he's
17:04
gaslighting all of these women. What are you talking about? I never loved
17:07
you. He hasn't said this to Janelle though, No, he hasn't said
17:11
this to Janel, but he tried to gaslight her and he died. I
17:15
think that this was a really crushing segment, and I think it ends with
17:19
her saying something like but you promised, Yeah, you literally promised me.
17:23
And then when we get to the next part where she's going into the relationship,
17:26
she starts ba saying like, I had a lot of doubts going into
17:30
this relationship and going into polygamy with you and building this specific life with you.
17:33
I had questions. I was worried, but you were always reassuring me
17:38
that everything was going to be okay and that you loved me and that I
17:41
was your person yeah, and now all of a sudden, you never loved
17:45
me, and she calls it a bullshit. It is bullshit. She knows
17:48
it's She's like, ask anybody, yeah who knew us when we were nineteen
17:52
twenty, even ten years ago. Yeah, Ask anybody, and they would
17:56
tell you that he loved me and that we were in love. And I
18:00
believe her. Yep, me too. After this scene, we bop on
18:03
back to Christine and we're still talking about the twins, and now we're talking
18:07
about how mchelty is going to be delivering twins and because of that, she's
18:12
not comfortable with having a home birth, yeah, which she's high risk,
18:15
and so she's going to solicit the services of doctor Bean, who is the
18:21
doctor who was there to deliver truly, And then we saw all the fucking
18:23
footage of that multiple times. Then we saw footage of Robin's homebirth and Maddie's
18:30
homebirth, and I'm like, what are we doing, you know, going
18:32
through the archives just to make a full episode. We've all of it and
18:36
it doesn't even make sense to what you're talking about. Oh, so she's
18:40
going to be bringing on doctor Bean. I was gonna say, mister Bean
18:45
and so then we have a conversation about polygamists and hospitals. What did you
18:51
think about that? I thought that was interesting because Christine says that a lot
18:53
of polygamists are afraid of going to the hospitals and giving birth there because they
18:57
don't want to be found out as polygamists, and that's why they don't usually
19:02
put the father on birth certificates and stuff like that, because they don't want
19:06
to get caught. And so there's a weird culture of fear with hospitals.
19:11
So that's why they do homebirths, right, which is fine. And then
19:14
Christine talks about how great home births are and how the recovery dime is awesome
19:18
because you're already at home, and yeah, it's pretty great. And you're
19:21
like, fuck, no, I give me the drugs. I need all
19:23
of the drugs. I mean, but me, being such a crunchy person,
19:26
I'm like, well, I can see the appeal of a home birth.
19:29
Really. Yeah, there was a lady that my church. Well yeah,
19:33
but there was a lady that went to my church and she's had six
19:34
kids and they're all she had them all in her bed. Okay, are
19:37
you really wanting like a natural birth. When you give birth, you're gonna
19:41
want an epidural. I told you. They tried to give me an epidural,
19:44
but I was way too fat and they couldn't get the needle between my
19:45
spy into this spinal memory or whatever because it was fat, which was unfortunate
19:49
because then I had to feel I was very fat. You don't think I
19:52
was super turbo fat, well, because you were pregnant, Well, yeah,
19:56
very pregnant. And so then I had to take the regular drugs and
20:00
those were good up until like I think four or five centimeters, and then
20:03
it was just all downhill from there. In terms of if I could have
20:07
had the epidural and all that deluded, I would have been so happy.
20:11
Yeah, you had been so fine. Yeah, but yeah, I don't
20:14
know. I wouldn't want to do a home but some of the home birds,
20:15
I'm like, oh, that's so beautiful, like the people that do
20:18
the water births and stuff. It's supposed to be more natural that way.
20:21
I don't know. And there's a whole historical thing that says, like when
20:25
they started making women give birth in hospitals and they had to lay down,
20:27
like it's actually worse for your pelvic floor and all of that stuff. So
20:32
it's actually are bad. I made it. I took drugs and it was
20:36
great. I thought it was interesting though, the whole segment about this,
20:38
and then we have Janelle kind of cutting in and saying that she was not
20:41
raised as a polygamist and so she never really had this preconceived idea about hospitals
20:47
being bad or hospitals being some a mechanism through which you could out your polygamist
20:52
family. And thus Cody has his name on all of her children's birth certificate.
20:56
Yeah, and that got me wondering, like, does Cody have his
21:00
name on Christine's kids birth certificates? I wonder if he doesn't, because if
21:04
she wants to pursue him for child support, she probably can't. She has
21:07
to well she can prove paternity. And also we have the footage that we've
21:11
all been watching for twelve years when he's established that he's her father. Yeah.
21:15
Yeah, So that's just got me wondering whether he signed Christine's children's birth
21:19
certificates or is he out here like not legally taking ownership of them at all,
21:23
because I don't think he ever insured them. I also don't think he
21:27
ever insured Janelle's kids either, Like they've rarely had insurance for any of their
21:32
kids, which is why Christine had to raise fifty thousand dollars in order to
21:36
get Isabelle her spinal surgery. Right, you don't think Cody contributed to insurance.
21:41
It's crazy, crazy, crazy, super super crazy. And it seems
21:44
like Christine's the only one with this weird fear and she kind of passed it
21:47
down to her kids because she talks about how Michelt had avalon at home,
21:52
but Tony was like, not, no, really traumatized his PTSD from that,
21:56
and so would I. Well, yeah, seeing your wife in pain
21:59
like that with no and everything and like all of the goop and all the
22:02
stuff, it's just like that's real. That is a lot. And yeah,
22:04
you have a midwife there, and Christine says that that's essential to have
22:08
a good home birth, to have a experienced midwife and everything. That's still
22:12
a lot. So I'm kind of glad that mckelty's like, I'm just going
22:15
to do in the hospital. Yeah, because I got twins. It's too
22:18
high risk. We're just going to do there, right, And I totally
22:19
understand and I totally think that she should. Yeah. After this, we
22:22
head on over to Robin and Cody's and they are celebrating Truly's twelfth birthday.
22:30
Truly is visiting with her sister Isabelle, and Robin is really happy to have
22:33
family in the house, even though it's not everybody. Even though it's not
22:38
everybody, she's just happy because their kids have really missed their sibling. Whatever.
22:44
But there just seems to be a wall. There seems to be a
22:47
wall that I can't get over, and I just don't know why. And
22:49
the wall is Christine, Yeah, that's what it is. There's nothing that
22:52
I've done to create this wall. Okay, so I am confused as to
22:56
why. But in this moment, I'm just happy to have a couple members
23:00
of the family over to visit is she though. I feel like she's not
23:03
really happy to have them over. To be honest, I think it feels
23:07
awkward. And Cody even addresses it and he's like, you know, Truly's
23:10
fine. She seems to be having a lot of fun. But there's just
23:11
a nuance. There's an undertone. There is a vibe with Isabelle that is
23:17
like just strain or just uncomfy, And when you look at Isabelle. I
23:21
mean she's standing around the island with the rest of the kids. Her eyes
23:23
are downcast, she doesn't look comfortable. Yeah, And then we get her
23:29
on the couch saying, well, yeah, I mean my relationship with my
23:32
father has always been rocky. Yeah, and now it's especially weird because they're
23:37
going through a divorce. Plus we're a polygamist family going through a divorce.
23:41
I don't know how to act. Yeah, he doesn't know how to act,
23:44
and so it's weird. Well, and I'm just like, Also,
23:47
he didn't go to your major surgery, right, and you really wanted him
23:49
to go to your surgery. And we saw him on camera say don't be
23:53
a bitter old hag or whatever because I didn't go to your surgery. Like,
23:57
I think that's also contributing to the quote mild strain that Cody puts it.
24:03
And I'm just like, Cody, you could try to bridge the gap
24:04
a little bit, and you can try to make Isabelle and truly feel a
24:07
bit more comfortable, but you don't because you don't care. You're just gonna
24:11
allow the mild strain to linger and not do anything about it because he expects
24:18
everybody else to just call jem to facilitate the relationship that they want to have
24:22
with him. And if they don't want to have a relationship with him,
24:25
like Maddie, they don't want to have a relationship with him, He's not
24:27
gonna go out of his way to call them or make any overtures. We
24:32
actually have a producer ask him like, hey, have you talked with Mattie?
24:36
Yeah, And this is where he says, yeah, you know,
24:38
around the time Christine left, or maybe it was COVID, Mattie just stopped
24:45
calling and I'm not really sure what happened there. Then we cut to Janelle
24:48
saying, yeah, she's not talking to him because of his behavior. Yes,
24:52
just to think about her kids and what kind of people or what kind
24:56
of grandfather she's going to allow into the lives of her children. That's because
25:00
of his behavior. She doesn't want any part of it right now. Now,
25:03
do you think that that loved it? I mean, that's great,
25:07
Jeanette, so awesome. Yes, But do you think that that's influenced at
25:11
all by any of the wives, Like, is Janelle running to Maddie and
25:14
talking shit about Cody? You think I think Christine is running to Maddie.
25:18
Yes, I think Christine has talked to Maddie, and Maddie has always been
25:21
a very big critic of polygamy and Robin anytime they had home Church, which
25:26
again we saw footage of this once again, Robin with her purity preaching.
25:30
Okay, shut up, wasn't she pregnant with Dayton out of wedlock? I
25:34
don't know, I don't even know, but yeah, Maddie was always sitting
25:37
at home Church with a very stink ass face, listening to her parents preach
25:41
about the values and virtues of spirituality hypocrites. Yeah, so I think she's
25:47
pretty disappointed. And we even have Cody saying in this segment that as he
25:51
looks around at his family right now, he's disappointed, Well, yeah,
25:56
wouldn't you be? And why don't you fix it? Why don't you do
25:59
anything to fit You're just gonna allow it to disintegrate in front of you and
26:03
you're just gonna be like, eh, whatever, it is, what it
26:07
is. He talks about how it's hard right now and he doesn't know if
26:11
he can trust and I'm like, are you talking for Isabelle in that moment?
26:18
Like, maybe Isabelle doesn't know if she can trust me, because I
26:22
actually think maybe he's talking about himself being unable to trust isabel or his other
26:26
kids. That's what I think it is, because I think he believes that
26:30
all of the wives are talking shit about him to the kids and turning him
26:33
away or turning them against him. So I think that's what he means.
26:37
He can't trust his kids. He's calling them narcissists and stupid and idiots and
26:42
jerks on national TEAMLA to me, Beatrice, I know, it's really crazy
26:47
to see, and I'm just like, Cody, why don't you just like
26:49
try to talk to your kids about it, though, Yeah, and try
26:52
to be not an angry, testosterone raging monster about it when you talk to
26:56
them and ask them how they're feeling, because they're probably filing super conflicted.
27:00
Isabelle, right there, is so uncomfortable to be around her dad because she's
27:04
dealing with all of the shit that he's done to her, on top of
27:08
knowing how he treated his mom, how he treated or how he treated her
27:12
mom sorry, and how he treated Janelle and the rest of her kids.
27:15
Like she knows what's happening because she's not fucking stupid she's an adult. She
27:19
can see, she's got two eyes, so she's dealing with all of that.
27:22
That's why it's uncomfortable, how mild. I actually think that Isabelle is
27:27
there as a human shield for Truly to like protect Truly to I can see
27:32
that Truly is okay because maybe Truly is feeling uncomfortable or awkward, and she
27:37
doesn't see these people very often, and so Isabelle is offering to go and
27:41
be there with Truly and I spend see the time with her family. We
27:45
also learn in this segment about Cody would feel a lot of shame if he
27:49
went back to Utah and showed his face in his old church because his entire
27:55
marriage, his entire family structure has imploded. He also says they have not
27:59
found a church in flag Staff, so they're not actively worshiping anywhere, and
28:04
we have to wonder whether he's actually lost his faith, certainly his polygamist faith,
28:10
right. I don't know if he would align himself currently with the aub
28:12
Yeah, which is I guess that is not the religion that they are all
28:17
part of, yeahub Yeah, so he's not probably aligned with the AUB I
28:21
don't even know if he's an LDS, though I don't even know if he's
28:22
just a plain old Mormon anymore. I don't even know. It would be
28:26
interesting to hear what he actually does believe. But I mean, we've seen
28:30
on prior seasons some of the people from his AUB church coming in to ask
28:34
him about polygamy and all of his wisdom he has from all of his four
28:37
wives. So there are monogamists in the AUB that believe in the faith that
28:42
are quote trying to find their own sister wives. Right, So maybe he
28:45
still aligns with the church but is pretending like, oh, well, I
28:52
am a polygamist, but you know, I've gone through three divorces, so
28:56
I'm thinking about it. Maybe. But what I got from this was that
29:00
he's disappointed. He's embarrassed, she's angry, he's non proactive because he's doing
29:08
absolutely nothing to fix the problem, and he's sad because he ends this with
29:14
you know, yeah, like everything seems to have come to sort of an
29:17
end, and my family hasn't ended, but there has been an ending of
29:21
sorts. Yeah, and that's sad. It is sad, And I felt
29:26
with him on the couch there was more of a softness, Like maybe some
29:30
time has passed from when he was read in his eyes and read in his
29:33
face and read in his next screaming about Christine, Like maybe a few months
29:37
have actually passed because Michelti has said on her Patreon that he's going to therapy,
29:41
that he's trying to get out of his anger and get out of his
29:45
toxicity. So maybe there's been some time that's past. I don't know.
29:48
He looks sad, but he's not fucking reflective. No, there's no ownership
29:52
or accountability. If he was actually doing the work and going to therapy,
29:56
like there would be some of that in these statements, and there's none of
30:00
that. No, there's still a lot of anger and hatred towards the wives
30:03
and some of the kids, Like he just doesn't have any of that ability
30:07
to recognize his own actions and all of this. Like you're disappointed and sad,
30:11
sure, but it's because you wanted it to be the status quo.
30:15
It's not that you're disappointed and sad because you miss your family, Because if
30:18
you missed your family, you would make the effort to try and mend all
30:22
of these relationships that you broke. But you're not doing that. So to
30:25
me, I'm watching this and I'm like, I don't really care that you're
30:27
disappointed and sad because you don't act like it and you don't care to fix
30:32
it. So crime me a river man. Yeah, And at some point
30:34
in this episode, Janelle says something like, you're getting exactly what you're giving.
30:40
Yes to these kids, Yes, what you give them is what you're
30:42
going to get from that, but they are no longer going to be making
30:45
that extra effort to try and have a relationship with you. Exact this is
30:49
what it is, right, speaking of Janelle, In the next scene,
30:55
we head on over to Garrison's house, which again he bought and paid for
30:59
him working man, huge accomplishment. He's got a backyard and he knows that
31:03
his mama loves to garden, so all the kids have pitched in and they
31:08
built her some raised beds her birthday, your birthday, And so Gabe is
31:14
out there helping her garden plant her basil and her tomatoes, and you can
31:17
just see she's in her element. Yes, she's so happy. I loved
31:21
it. And was it, Gabe? I can never remember which one,
31:23
the one the long hair I was helping her. Yeah, Gabe was helping
31:26
her. She said, that's her garden child, who always loves to help
31:30
her. And I'm just like, that's so wholesome and so cute that,
31:33
like, in this tiny, little urban area, they're giving their mom this
31:36
whole space so she can plant her basil and her tomatoes and her sweet potatoes
31:40
and all these I just like that makes me so happy. Yeah, and
31:44
her boys are trying to take care of her. Her boys are trying to
31:48
fill in or step into the shoes that her father or their father should be
31:52
actually, yeah, stepping in. So they're trying to take care of Janelle.
31:55
And I thought that was a really sweet scene. But we get to
31:59
the part of this scene which is very interesting where Janelle's talking about Coyote Pass
32:04
and she's reiterating that she loves gardening. She loves plants, like her ideal
32:07
dream would be to work professionally large scale growing plants, which is awesome.
32:13
And so she has a current dream as of the filming here, So twenty
32:15
twenty two, her birthdays in May, so I think we're in June of
32:19
twenty twenty two. Still, Yeah, but her current dream at that time
32:22
was to build greenhouses on Coyote Pass and to have some kind of a business,
32:27
which is awesome. So she keeps asking Cody, like, are we
32:30
paying it off? What's going on with this? And then we cut on
32:32
over to Cody and Cody's not, Yeah, she's nagging me about Coyote Pass
32:37
and paying it off. And my intention is to build there with Robin.
32:39
Yeah, just Robin, not with Janelle, not with Mary, not with
32:44
anybody else. I still intend to build there with Robin. And for all
32:50
the nagging that Janelle is doing, she's not actually helping. Bitch. She
32:54
helped pay for your mc mansion to the tune of about one hundred and twenty
32:59
to one four thousand dollars. Barry also contributed to that McMansion and put money
33:06
into the fund which you used to buy your Canzio salad and all the artwork
33:10
and all the artwork and all your jewelry and Rolexes and rings and such.
33:15
You're the one that needs to cough up the money for Coyote Pass. You
33:19
pay it off for real. But I think he's still he's saying that as
33:22
a dig to her because he's still bitter about her spending eighty thousand dollars in
33:27
the view, I wouldn't be a bit surprised. I mean, that's all
33:29
it is. He's just bitter because she went against his authoritic as the patriarch
33:34
of the household and made that huge purchase. And we've talked about this before
33:37
that that wasn't the most responsible use of her money. However, when nobody
33:43
is willing to pay off Coyote Pass and nobody is willing to make any hedgeway
33:46
on this fucking plot of land or all these plots of land that they bought
33:50
what four or five years ago, like they're not doing shit with it.
33:54
Yeah, I would probably buy something too, just to get out there,
33:58
just to maybe light a fire under your guys. Is asked to get all
34:00
of this done so we can build out there. Because Janelle's living in a
34:04
dorm apartment, Cody, what is she supposed to do? Do we really
34:07
believe Cody here that he intends to build with Robin on Coytie Pass, because
34:13
my feeling is that he intends to sell this land at some point and make
34:16
a profit. I don't even think he wants to build. I don't think
34:19
he wants to either. I think he's comfortable in the McMansion with the heated
34:22
driveway. They why four acres? Why would he, yeah, need to
34:24
build He's got a great situation. Now he's turned into a monogamous Yep.
34:29
He has a great piece of land. But unfortunately Mary and Janelle's names are
34:32
attached to that land. M hm. So I don't know what's going to
34:36
happen, but I'm probably going to sell it. They paid it off I
34:38
think early summer twenty twenty three, so just a few months ago. I
34:42
don't know how they paid it off. I don't know who made the payment
34:45
to pay it off, but it has been paid off. They own it
34:46
free and clear. I just don't know what's going to happen to the property.
34:50
I thought they paid only one part of the land off because they had
34:52
multiple plots that they were still owing on. I don't know, but I
34:55
think you need to do your raccoon forensics. I'll look it up, look
34:59
it up, and I'll go back to the Flagstaff County website and look or
35:02
onto Reddit because there's a lot of raccoons on Reddit. Yeah, also looking
35:06
into this. All Right. From there, we head on over to Salt
35:10
Lake City, Utah. We have truly m because again. It was her
35:15
birthday, she turned twelve, and her request of Christine was to have a
35:19
bike. What did you think of this scene? This was pretty cute and
35:22
wholesome. I feel bad for truly, because she's obviously very traumatized about learning
35:25
how to ride a bike. Because fucking Cody, I don't was an asshole
35:30
to her when she was trying to learn. When she was like what nine
35:32
or something like that, she looked a little bit older, I don't know,
35:35
but she was just like there's a flashback of a scene where he's just
35:37
being kind of harsh and stern with her, like just figure it out,
35:40
get on the bike. I think she was like five or six. I
35:44
think she was younger. She looked young. She looked old enough to like
35:47
learn how to ride a bike, but still young, like where you shouldn't
35:52
be so harsh with her. But she obviously is traumatized about learning how to
35:54
ride a bike. And Christine talks about this, so they're going to let
35:59
her take her time do what she's most comfortable with. They bought her a
36:01
bike and they start to try and teach her how to ride a bike in
36:06
their driveway, and the poor thing is just so scared, Yeah, and
36:10
something that she's going to have to overcome. Yeah, it's sad. But
36:14
Mitch is there. Mitch again is Essen's husband. He's really sweet. And
36:17
then there's Christine and all the people just talk and talk and talk, and
36:21
he's like, truly needs less voices. Let's do some less voices. And
36:25
Christina is like, that is the nicest way anyone has ever told me to
36:28
shut up. But sometimes Christine needs to shut up. I mean truly,
36:30
she's just like a little parrot, back the shut up. Let truly have
36:36
this moment to try and figure it out. Yet so truly does she doesn't
36:39
ride the bike? Does she know? She gets scared, but she does
36:43
a little practice. She makes an attempt, and she says it's going to
36:45
take at least five days these five days, maybe more actually for me to
36:52
actually ride this bike, at least five days, And in the moment,
36:54
she's like, I'm not ready for this right now, Let's just wait until
36:59
next year, right guarantee. Like you're so cute. She's really cute.
37:02
She's very precocious. Yeah, and she's just really a cool kid. I
37:07
was watching this with my wife, your daughter, and she was kind of
37:10
making fun of truly a little bit. She's like, man, she's old
37:14
to learn how to ride a bike. And I turned to her and I'm
37:15
like, I was ten. I was ten. And then I was texting
37:20
Ethel today and she was telling me that somebody she knows I won't reveal it
37:23
or whatever, didn't learn until he was sixteen. Oh my gosh. Oh
37:30
yeah. And she truly even says, I wish I learned this when I
37:32
was five, yeah, which I think is coded language for I wish I
37:37
didn't have such a terrible traumatic experience with my father who doesn't know how to
37:40
parent me. And I wish I would have been able to pick it up
37:44
back then somebody else had taught me. So I had been riding my bike
37:46
this entire time. But no, now I'm twelve out here looking like a
37:50
crazy person, like a crazy kid who can't ride a bike. I know,
37:53
I got pressure. Now I'm not going to do it. I'll do
37:55
it next year. It's like Monica Geller from Friends, Ye when she's like
38:00
twelve years old when she learned to tell time. Yeah, totally, that's
38:07
okay. I think I believed in Santa Claus until I was eleven. Are
38:08
you serious. I really wanted Santa be real. My childhood life was such
38:15
a bummer and it was so hard. The only thing we ever really had
38:19
was Christmas, and so I needed Santa to be real. That is really
38:23
cute. Yeah, I was entering puberty and I was still trying to pla.
38:30
Oh my god, that's so sad, all right. The final this
38:34
wig, I swear to god, it's alive. It's sentence. It's like
38:37
Medusa hair is trying to get in my mouthcarnated in your wig. The final
38:43
segment is the conclusion of the information revealed by Mary. Again, we pick
38:50
up here and she talks about in the beginning of the relationship how she had
38:53
a lot of doubts. She didn't really know whether she wanted to go all
38:57
in with this kind of lifestyle with Cody, but he was always reassuring.
39:00
He promised to love her forever, and she thought their commitment would actually mean
39:07
something to him. So she's throwing some bombs back it is. I mean,
39:12
she should be, and she has every right to, because it is
39:14
really hypocritical of Cody. Now, I will say, though, I think
39:19
when she had that little internet affair with the cat fish, I think that
39:23
really broke his heart, like actually, and I think that's probably where.
39:27
Yes, I really do think that that actually broke the catfish broke Cody's heart
39:31
because they weren't having a actual marriage and I would have seen intimacy for years
39:37
before that. I think he was overjoyed. I know, I interrupted you
39:40
him. Sorry, such a bully, I know, but I feel like
39:44
he was overjoyed because finally he had an excuse to get out of the marriage,
39:47
and he ended up using it, leveraging it, weaponizing her catfishing in
39:52
order to get that divorce from her and Mary Robin legally. Am I correct
39:58
in the timeline of that, I think. So we have to go back
40:00
and watch those seasons, and I'm excited to do those recaps and stuff so
40:04
we can actually see it happen as it happens. But no, I think
40:08
it actually really fucked up his ego. I think it really bothered him deep
40:13
down. And I think that's why part of the reason why their relationship is
40:15
the way it is. There's a difference between fucking up my ego and breaking
40:19
my heart. Well, I think it broke his heart too. I don't
40:21
think I think he did love her I don't think he loved her. I
40:23
think he loved her. There was you can see it in the chemistry in
40:27
the first couple when they were in Vegas and she was catfishing him. I
40:30
think he was done with her by then. Well, he was done with
40:32
all of the wives by then, because he was he was having a sexual
40:37
renaissance with Jane. Honey, Janelle doesn't need to lie. Listen, Let's
40:45
talk about the motivation for this whole sexual renaissance for Janelle in Las Vegas.
40:50
All right, And if she's been the money bags this whole entire time,
40:52
of course he's going to need to have a renaissance with her and try to
40:57
swoon her and get her all. Is she money? She was a bookkeeper.
41:00
The most she was making in Salt Lake City was I don't know,
41:04
twenty seven to thirty two thousand dollars a year, which again is more than
41:07
Cody Brown because as he ever had a job, I don't know, and
41:09
none of the other people were working in this family. But she was not
41:14
rich. It's not like she was bringing home six figures, honey. No,
41:16
But she was worried about those bills. Don't you remember when they had
41:19
to go to consignment furniture shopping with mister Theo. Yes, when they first
41:22
got and she's worried about it because I don't know how I'm gonna pay bills
41:25
next month. Yeah, she's not money bags. No, she's not money
41:29
bags, persus Mary's money bags. Mary's money bags. Yeah. But like
41:32
if Janelle's keeping track of where all the money is going and none of the
41:37
other wives know where the money's actually going, he does kind of have to
41:39
sweet talk her and keep her loyal, stuck to his ball and chain the
41:44
whole entire time. I don't think so. I think if he is motivated
41:47
by that, then he would have been rubbing up against Mary because Mary was
41:51
doing lularoe by then. Mary was making money at that point. That's why
41:54
she wanted the wet Bar, because she wanted to be able to schmooz her
41:58
MLM friends. Why she needed the place because she had all of her inventory.
42:01
She was working with Mattie at the time, like she was making a
42:04
lot of money. So using that logic, he would have wanted to romance
42:07
her, but he was not doing that. She was lonely, af but
42:12
she was looking for any kind of love and intimacy and that's how she got
42:15
catfish. Well, yeah, but he also knew that Mary would never really
42:19
leave him though. I mean, look at her right now. It's been
42:22
eight years of having nothing, absolutely nothing in a marriage with Cody, and
42:25
she's still pining over him, begging for him to try. Like he knew
42:30
she would never really leave, and then she has this catfish and it's like
42:34
a huge blow to his ego. Probably broke his heart a little bit because
42:37
he probably did love her, just like with how he loved Christine. He
42:40
loved Christine. He says he didn't. Well, I think that he says
42:44
he never loved Mary. I think that's a lie. And he said he
42:46
used to love Janelle. I think that's all a lie. He's a gaslighting
42:50
liar. I agree. I just I don't know. I don't know about
42:52
all of that. I'd say interested now in Las Vegas, did have I
42:58
think they've got a vibe to get her. I think their bodies fit just
43:01
right Beatrice. I think it's sexy sixty times when they wanted to be Yes.
43:06
I think I know it's a Taurus. She's a sensual, beautiful mommy,
43:10
and she loves when he has a man bun and so he comes on
43:15
over when she's in Vegas and the cold sag and he saunters and sashets himself
43:19
into her house and he's got that man bun on. He's like, what's
43:22
cooking, Mama? She says, you know, it's cooking this poonnani hot
43:28
for you, Papa. Did you write me any poetry? I don't know,
43:31
so I don't know about all that. All Right, back to Mary,
43:37
she's really devastated. Here's where she talks about the fact that he said
43:42
he never loved her. Yeah, he only ever, I guess went through
43:45
the motions to affirm their union. And she says, we can go back
43:49
and ask anybody that man loved me and I loved him, and I believe
43:52
her. I see the pictures, and I watched the earlier seasons. As
43:55
we said, yep, so no lies detected. The only person line is
44:00
Cody for sure. Mary says that Cody told her directly that they are never
44:07
going to have a marriage relationship ever again ever again. So Mary in this
44:14
moment, because we end this episode with her saying, I don't know what
44:17
I'm gonna do. Yeah, And I'm like, Mary, how do you
44:22
not know what you're gonna do. When he finally said it as clearly as
44:27
possible yet that there is no way that we are ever going to be together
44:30
in a relationship. I do not see myself in your life in any way.
44:35
I don't want to be in your life in any way. Yep.
44:37
I think he even said to her like, I don't even care to be
44:43
interjected into your life in any way because I don't. I don't care,
44:45
like I don't care what you do. I don't care if you're alive or
44:47
dead. That's essentially what he said to her. You're right, And then
44:51
he's saying that our marriage is over, there's nothing. I don't even know
44:53
why you call me. I don't even know why you called me today on
44:57
our anniversary, like I even give a shit. He's being very direct with
45:00
her and very much I don't know what I'm going to do, because he
45:05
has to be, because she's pining, she's dreaming, she's hoping, she's
45:08
praying. I guess, like you need to hear what I'm saying to you.
45:12
It is never going to work out. I think there's a kind of
45:15
kindness in that he's like, let yeah, let me actually go pick you
45:16
up, let me take you to a restaurant and break it to you as
45:20
gently as possible that this shit is over. And Mary, you have to
45:23
hear me. Mary, you are free to go live your life and do
45:27
what you want to do. And she even says in this segment, I've
45:30
got two choices. The first choice is I can continue to live the way
45:34
I have been living for the last eight years, which is as a fiercely
45:37
independent, badass woman doing my own thing. I'm like, okay, lady,
45:40
whatever, all right, okay, or I can terminate this relationship,
45:46
terminate it, terminate it. Then she says, but that really goes against
45:50
my values, which I think. Here again, she's talking about her religious
45:53
values and so that doesn't sit right with her, so she's not comfortable to
45:57
do that. And then she says, I don't know what to do.
46:00
You don't have anything to do. This man has told you he's not married
46:05
to you, yep, and he does not give a shit at all,
46:07
So why are you even here? And I was asking Ethel about all this
46:10
because I'm just like, why doesn't Cody just be honest with all of these
46:14
women and say that I fell in love with Robin, I fell out of
46:16
love with you, guys. I found my person and I'm just done,
46:20
and like, let's just cut our losses and try to have a nice,
46:24
amicable relationship with all the kids and all of that. Why doesn't he just
46:28
say that? And Ethel's like, well, it goes against their whole religious
46:31
doctrine, and I guess with their aub religion and the Mormon God on colob
46:37
the only thing that they give the women in this polygamy relationship type thing is
46:44
that the women have the choice to leave and it doesn't affect them so negatively
46:49
on the planets or something, and it doesn't look bad on Cody on his
46:52
man planet. But if Cody, sorry, I know this is so ridiculous,
46:59
but if Cody told the wives I want to leave you, then it
47:02
demotes him on his man planet, right, So then he goes farther away
47:07
from God on cool op So if he initiates a divorce with one of his
47:10
wives, he pays a higher price in the afterlife. Yes, there were
47:15
some comments from folks on YouTube that are like that whole planet thing is not
47:20
actually true. It's not in the religion. And then there are people on
47:23
Reddit that are like, no, it's absolutely in the religion. Yeah,
47:27
and you have Ethel obviously, who is former Mormon, saying yes, it's
47:31
not as basic as we painted out to be. But like, essentially,
47:36
the afterlife is a big deal, and if you are married to a woman
47:39
in your human life, you're going to take her with you to wherever you
47:43
go planet or otherwise in your eternal life. And so Mary wants to be
47:46
with him in the eternal life. Yep. That was what her hope was.
47:51
That is what she bought into. And so now you're telling me that
47:53
you don't want anything to do with me, So why would I want?
47:55
It's been a journey dy with you. And to that, I say,
47:59
yeah, no, duh, why would you want to? Yes, I
48:01
don't understand, but like this is the whole predicament that both Mary and Janelle
48:07
are in. They're both wrestling with their faith with all of this because they
48:09
believe in these marriages being eternal and spiritual and all of that hogwash. But
48:15
I'm just like, come on, ladies, I don't understand. Have some
48:19
dignity. Find yourself another Mormon man. If you want, Janelle, if
48:22
you want to go back into plural marriage, that's cool. Whatever. I'm
48:25
not gonna judge you. I mean, I will judge you a little bit,
48:28
but I'm not gonna judge you super hard and go find a new planet.
48:31
Like you don't have to be on Cody Brown's planet with fucking Robert Well.
48:36
I mean, I guess they wouldn't even really be on his planet because
48:38
he doesn't really consider himself married to these two. No, he doesn't,
48:42
so they would be on their own separate moons, or doesn't even get a
48:45
planet if he's not a polagamist. I don't know, can some Mormons in
48:50
an actual education. I know we're speaking out of ignorance. We've heard things,
48:53
we've read things, but like we're not Mormons, so we don't actually
48:55
know. But yeah, there's a ramification for Cody Brown. There is a
48:59
ramification for Mary. I think Mary's very offended that he is going back on
49:05
his commitment to take care of her in this life and in the afterlife.
49:07
But nonetheless, in the conversation that she has with him at the restaurant,
49:12
she says, well, should we make an announcement? Then? Yeah?
49:15
Should we just tell people that we're no longer together? And he says,
49:20
uh, No, because I get too much criticism as it is, and
49:23
I don't want people talking about me. I don't want people shaming me,
49:28
So let's just keep it to ourselves. What a dick? And Mary,
49:30
why do you even ask? Why did you don't have to ask him?
49:34
Right? You can just walk away from that conversation, go home, pull
49:37
up your Instagram and make your own damn statement. Why are you still trying
49:40
to consider him in everything that you're doing? This man doesn't care about you,
49:45
Nope, he only cares how he looks to everybody else. Even though
49:49
he's not on Instagram, he's not active on the social media's because he knows
49:52
how he's being perceived. He only gives a shit about that. He does
49:57
not care about Mary and her feelings. No, he doesn't care where she
50:00
goes or what she's doing in her life because he literally does not give a
50:04
shit except for how he's going to be looked at and criticized for losing another
50:10
marriage. Right, and Mary on the Couch says, this is my story
50:15
too. Yeah, I should have every right to speak and tell my story.
50:21
Yes, queen, but she never did. I know she waited until
50:24
after last seasons. Tell nothings to issue a joint statement with Cody, So
50:30
she honored his request, his need to control the situation and to control his
50:34
image, and she played into it. Yeah, like, I just want
50:37
you to stand up, tell the truth, tell us how you feel,
50:39
tell you tell us how you feel about him, even if you love him
50:42
and want them, tell us the truth, right, just be honest.
50:45
Isn't she all they do is lie? I know. Isn't she still going
50:49
to come out with a book or did she already come out with that?
50:51
No? What didn't she come out with a No, we've talked about it.
50:53
We put it on a vision board that she was writing about to write
50:57
a book. Yeah, I can see her doing. I thought she was
50:59
talking about writing a book or something, or maybe that was just a fever.
51:00
She's made a couple of Instagram posts where she's like, don't worry,
51:04
I'm going to speak out on this at some point in the future when the
51:07
time is right for me. So she makes cryptic kind of statements like that,
51:12
like never really set a book. Well, I mean that would be
51:15
so odd. I would buy that book. I would buy that book,
51:16
just like the Britney Spears book. Oh my god, like I need to
51:20
buy that book. I know I need to. I've heard it's crazy.
51:22
Justin Timberlake is getting dragged for having a good micro, a little baby penis
51:30
and pamper penipper. He'sis she couldn't even be baby. She's like, oh
51:35
my god, my world was collapsing around this man has no penis. Justin
51:39
Timberlake for real, but an asshole. He cheated on her multiple times before
51:43
she ever cheated with that wide guy, and then dragged her publicly through the
51:46
mud. Also during the Super Bowl with Janet Jackson where she had her wardrobe
51:52
malfunction. That whole thing was his idea and he let her take the fall.
51:57
So it is time for a reckoning for Justin Timberlake. You know what,
52:00
It's time for a reckoning for Cody Brown. But you know what,
52:04
Mary, I'm putting some of this accountability on you. Yep, I'm putting
52:07
some of this responsibility on you. You are the captain of your own ship,
52:13
yes, honey, and it is up to you how you want to
52:15
live your life. I don't fall to you for loving this man, You've
52:17
been with him for thirty two years. But I do just want better for
52:21
you because week after week he is humiliating you and making her look like a
52:25
schmoh on national television, and you're letting him and he's wasting your life,
52:30
like he's taking so much of your time and energy because you're just begging for
52:36
him to be something that he will never be for you ever again, and
52:38
you were just wasting your time, Like, go be happy with somebody else.
52:43
You deserve that, you deserve to get your back blown out by somebody.
52:46
I just want that for her, preferably by a biker person. Now
52:50
she can go to that because finally he said it with his actual big boy
52:53
words. He told her it's never gonna happen. And so now it's on
52:55
you Mary to guad and make a life for yourself that you will love.
53:00
This is where the episode ends with her saying, I don't know what I'm
53:04
going to do, so annoying. The choice is not yours because he walked
53:07
away from you. Yeah, we go to the preview and we see next
53:09
week that it's Christine's fiftieth birthday party. She's celebrating, she's having fun single.
53:15
Well she's dating though, Yeah, she's dating a lot. What she
53:19
said, do we think she's dating David Woolley at this time. I kind
53:22
of hope, so I would love to see that. I think that she's
53:24
met him already, I hope. So wow. We also see that Cody
53:29
comes over to Janelle's apartment to check it out, but he can tell that
53:35
there's no place for him there. He's not going to be spending anytime there,
53:38
and Janelle and Savannah actually look uncomfortable with him in their space. And
53:44
finally we have Mary saying that they haven't had a marriage for years. For
53:51
eight years, I guess, and screw him. He's not worth it.
53:53
So okay, so you don't know what you're going to do, but then
53:57
the next episode, screw him, he's not worth it. Right. I
54:00
wonder if when she's on the couch, she's trying to narrate where she was
54:04
at the time, but she's not necessarily aligned perfectly with what they're showing in
54:08
terms of footage, And how can you blame her because they're just patching together
54:13
all this footage from all the different seasons extra shit, right, So maybe
54:16
she's thinking, at the time, you know, I didn't really know which
54:19
way I was going to go, But then by the next episode, she's
54:22
like no, screw him. He's not worth it, and we need the
54:24
era of Mary getting mad and opening her mouth and telling us about it.
54:29
That's what we need over here. We do. And I was really hoping
54:30
that this episode was going to have the whole picnic table thing on Coyote Pass
54:36
and the whole confrontation. I feel like they're going to just save that for
54:37
the season finale, which is just so annoying. And I thought this episode
54:42
was weirdly patched together anyway, because you have all of these really sad scenes
54:45
with Mary talking about the disillusion of her marriage and all this shit, paired
54:50
with Mikelti and Tony talking about their twins like I give a shit, and
54:53
then truly riding a bike. It's just like super weird that they paired all
54:58
of that with this depressing ass, heavy ass information that they're seemingly splitting into
55:05
two different episodes because we're still getting more of this conversation next episode. It's
55:08
like, Okay, well, I'm thinking that Mary and Cody's anniversary was like
55:15
around April. We see Janelle doing her garden sometime in June because she's planting
55:20
a little bit late. So I just feel like they're all over the place.
55:22
There are no like continuity to kind of anchor yourself and figure out where
55:27
you are with this family, because it's all, like I said, cobbled
55:30
together. And this is gonna proved Robin and Cody's whole narrative that they're getting
55:35
a bad edit because they are splicing all of this shit into all these different
55:39
times. It's very weird. But I can't use what you don't give them,
55:43
Honey, I mean, that's the truth right there. So any final
55:45
thoughts about this episode, Beatrice? It was kind of boring, but I
55:51
mean, what dirty laundry did we air? Really? Besides what we already
55:54
know, which is that Cody and Mary are not married. I mean,
55:59
I mean, I guess mad I was really interested to hear that bit of
56:01
information because they think we've all been wondering, like what does Maddie think?
56:06
And also what does Caleb think? Because Caleb and Cody used to have a
56:08
bit of a bromance. But we really really liked Caleb and we saw the
56:12
footage of him marrying them. I don't know we needed to see that,
56:15
but I thought that was super interesting and I kind of love how Janelle is
56:20
just coming in and saying, yeah, he's getting what he's giving, and
56:22
no, she's not calling him because his behavior has been atrocious and she's trying
56:27
to take care of her kids. We don't want our children around a crazy
56:30
man. Yeah. I do really love too, and I want really more
56:32
of that because Janelle's the only one that's really being honest here. I mean
56:37
Christine somewhat. Christine has that whole passive aggressive undertone underneath all of it.
56:43
But Janelle, Yeah, she's got the real tea. Yes, and I
56:45
want more of it, and I want that from Mary. I think we
56:47
can get there, Mary, I think we can get there. That's what
56:50
I want. Yes, hashtag wory up. All right, Well, that
56:54
was fantastic for our one hundredth episode. I love that our one hundredth episode
57:00
was a Sister Wives episode because we started with Sister Wives. That's what motivated
57:05
us to start our podcasts. Baby Now we gotta YouTube, we got a
57:08
Patreon, We're doing all sorts of reality. We're famous. I'm hate truly.
57:15
So is there anything else that we need to say to these beautiful raccoons
57:19
Beatrice, Well, if you love our podcast, I sure hope that you
57:22
give us a glowing five star review on your favorite podcast platform. It would
57:27
really help us grow the pod. Thank you so much, and we'll be
57:29
back later this week to talk Welcome to Platfill and the Conclusion, Thank you
57:35
bye. The Conclusion of ninety Fiance the Last Resort, so make sure to
57:38
check that out and until then, we love you and peace, O mine Icha
