  Speaker 2: Thank you very much.
• 1:40
  Speaker 1: All right, before we get into the episode. I got
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: one other thing. Okay, well I got two things, because
• 1:44
  Speaker 1: we have to talk about that thing that happened last
• 1:47
  Speaker 1: week when we were sick that we didn't get to
• 1:49
  Speaker 1: talk to because you're a sick girl. Which is the house?
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: The for sale sign went up on Cody and Robbin's mcmansin.
• 1:59
  Speaker 2: It is curly up on Zillo right now, so you
• 2:01
  Speaker 2: can go and look at the interior and it's so ugly.
• 2:05
  Speaker 1: Who do you think you're talking to? You don't think
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: every person within the sound of our voice. I already
• 2:10
  Speaker 1: looked at that Zillo listing, saw it on Reddit, saw
• 2:13
  Speaker 1: it on Instagram, looked through it with a fine tooth calm.
• 2:16
  Speaker 2: You know they did, I mean, I hope. So some
• 2:18
  Speaker 2: people still comment on our Instagram like, where can I
• 2:20
  Speaker 2: see the listing? Where can I?
• 2:21
  Speaker 1: It's on a Zillo, it's everywhere. So they listed the
• 2:26
  Speaker 1: horder House McMansion, where in lies the Dickenzie Villain. They
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: listed that for one million, six hundred and fifty thousand dollars.
• 2:36
  Speaker 2: Isn't that like less than what it's actually valued at.
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: No, it says on Zillo that it's overvalued by what
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: three or four hundred thousand dollars. They can't really depend
• 2:47
  Speaker 1: on Zillo for that. Yeah, but I think it's pretty
• 2:50
  Speaker 1: subjective when you're talking about those numbers and you're in
• 2:52
  Speaker 1: a place like Flagstaff, Yeah, dealing with one of these
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: bigger homes. I did see something I think it was
• 2:57
  Speaker 1: on a subreddit somewhere where somebody posted the history of
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: the listing, like they started off a little higher, then
• 3:07
  Speaker 1: they went down to like one point two million, then
• 3:10
  Speaker 1: they went down to like nine hundred thousand, then they
• 3:12
  Speaker 1: went back up to one point six all within a
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: day or two, and people were wondering why they might
• 3:18
  Speaker 1: have done that.
• 3:19
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: I'm not sure either.
• 3:21
  Speaker 2: I have no idea.
• 3:22
  Speaker 1: If you know, please let us know, Please let us know.
• 3:25
  Speaker 1: But needless to say, when you've got a listing on
• 3:27
  Speaker 1: a luxury property, you've got to furnish some photographs, and
• 3:33
  Speaker 1: there were about thirty or forty photographs which everybody went
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: through with their fractuon monocle. So what are some of
• 3:41
  Speaker 1: your takeaways? Girls about that house?
• 3:43
  Speaker 2: So much purple, like so much purple. The master bedroom
• 3:50
  Speaker 2: was probably the worst, with that big gray, gaudy bed,
• 3:54
  Speaker 2: and like you were ruining.
• 3:56
  Speaker 1: This house a core so bad.
• 3:58
  Speaker 2: I'm like, so bad. And then some people were like
• 4:00
  Speaker 2: zooming in on some of the things, like there's a
• 4:02
  Speaker 2: sculpture in there that's like seven nine hundred dollars. There's
• 4:06
  Speaker 2: like artwork that's like six eight grand.
• 4:10
  Speaker 1: I'm like everywhere, what the fuck? Paintings for ten thousand dollars.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: Somebody on the subreddit tallied up all of the knickknacks
• 4:19
  Speaker 1: and it was over one hundred thousand dollars just in knickknacks.
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: And when you think about Janelle, who just wanted to
• 4:25
  Speaker 1: live in a casita baby on the property and was
• 4:29
  Speaker 1: unable to do that, who doesn't have a place of
• 4:32
  Speaker 1: her own, when you think about jew looking at this
• 4:35
  Speaker 1: listing and seeing all of this expensive shit, I don't know,
• 4:39
  Speaker 1: I would be so fucking pissed.
• 4:41
  Speaker 2: Oh me too, I'm surprised they haven't said anything or
• 4:46
  Speaker 2: like tried to sue, because they should sue, Like he
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: and Robin totally stole all of this money from the otherwives,
• 4:53
  Speaker 2: Like for all of this bullshit, ugly ass artwork, isn't.
• 4:57
  Speaker 1: That against the law? Like all if all this money
• 4:59
  Speaker 1: is going into an LLC for all of the adults
• 5:02
  Speaker 1: and you siphon off the money and you buy investments
• 5:05
  Speaker 1: and artifacts and watches and paintings and Dickensian villages, Like,
• 5:09
  Speaker 1: are you being a legal fiduciary over that fund? It
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: doesn't seem fair. Surely these women have some sort of
• 5:17
  Speaker 1: an actionable action that they can take legally against Cody
• 5:22
  Speaker 1: and Robin. And some of the theories floating out there.
• 5:24
  Speaker 1: Do wonder whether they're selling because they're trying to pay
• 5:28
  Speaker 1: off Mary and payoff Janelle, both of whom contributed to
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: the down payment for that house. Oh good point, and
• 5:35
  Speaker 1: both of these women might be asking for that money back.
• 5:37
  Speaker 1: Although rumor has it that Cody and Robin pulled from
• 5:41
  Speaker 1: their equity to pay back Janelle like a year or
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: two ago. That's just a rumor, we don't know. Yeah,
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: but maybe that's why they're being compelled to sell. Also,
• 5:50
  Speaker 1: a lot of us are wondering, like where your coin's at,
• 5:53
  Speaker 1: because now you don't have Mary, who was the biggest
• 5:57
  Speaker 1: cash cow and Golden Goose. You don't have Janelle, you
• 5:59
  Speaker 1: don't have Christine. It's just Robin who don't.
• 6:02
  Speaker 2: Work, no, and Cody who don't work.
• 6:04
  Speaker 1: Yeah, and all you have is TLC and honey that
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: is winding down.
• 6:09
  Speaker 2: Well, Cody's also doing cameos.
• 6:11
  Speaker 1: Okay, oh my bad. Is he making a lot of
• 6:16
  Speaker 1: money doing those?
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: I don't know.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: People are hate cameoing though, oh totally. Nobody wants a
• 6:20
  Speaker 1: cameo for we should buy Shirley Temple. Oh my god,
• 6:22
  Speaker 1: we should. I would love that.
• 6:24
  Speaker 2: He could say Beatrice and Delia, Oh my god, we
• 6:27
  Speaker 2: have to we should do that.
• 6:29
  Speaker 1: We should do that, Oh my god. But a lot
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: of people are wondering whether they are prognosticating their future
• 6:35
  Speaker 1: and realizing that they maybe have one, maybe two more
• 6:39
  Speaker 1: seasons of Sister Wives before it all ends, and then
• 6:42
  Speaker 1: what have you got?
• 6:44
  Speaker 2: Nothing? And some people were making theories online that I
• 6:48
  Speaker 2: really hope to be true, which is they were looking
• 6:51
  Speaker 2: at like the master bedroom closet and they were looking
• 6:53
  Speaker 2: at the clothes that were in there and it was
• 6:55
  Speaker 2: just women's clothes that there were no men's clothes there,
• 6:59
  Speaker 2: Like the whole inside was completely empty. So people are
• 7:02
  Speaker 2: thinking like did Cody move out? Like are him and
• 7:05
  Speaker 2: Robin splitting up? But then you have a preview for
• 7:08
  Speaker 2: this season coming up posted on TLC's instagram, like just
• 7:12
  Speaker 2: two days ago. I posted on our Instagram story go
• 7:14
  Speaker 2: following us huh, And it was basically like all of
• 7:17
  Speaker 2: the spouses and everything talking about like what this season
• 7:23
  Speaker 2: means to them, and Cody and Robin both were like, yeah, no,
• 7:25
  Speaker 2: we're happy now, like we're happy in marriage now, and
• 7:28
  Speaker 2: like Robin saying that Cody's her dream guy. And so
• 7:31
  Speaker 2: I'm like, maybe they're not split up. Maybe people just
• 7:33
  Speaker 2: want that to happen. It'd be so great. Though.
• 7:36
  Speaker 1: I watched that on our Instagram and Cody looks like
• 7:39
  Speaker 1: a maniac. He does like ways smiling for the camera.
• 7:42
  Speaker 1: He's smiling in such a way that he's trying to
• 7:44
  Speaker 1: convey that he does not want to be there and
• 7:46
  Speaker 1: he's being forced to smile for the camera. He looks
• 7:48
  Speaker 1: like a crazy person totally, And I'm like, what are
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: we doing? Why are we doing this? Can you please
• 7:53
  Speaker 1: define Joy, can you please define this or that? Like,
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: I mean, Garrison passed right. If anything, this season should
• 7:59
  Speaker 1: be a somb reckoning of a season. And we have
• 8:03
  Speaker 1: this kind of a trailer where you're all pretending that
• 8:05
  Speaker 1: everything's so honky dory and wonderful. It's not great for me.
• 8:08
  Speaker 1: I'm miss Garrison.
• 8:09
  Speaker 2: Well, and Cody's in there talking shit about the wives still,
• 8:13
  Speaker 2: about how he was in unhappy marriages with all of them.
• 8:16
  Speaker 2: So it's just like, what the fuck is this old footage?
• 8:18
  Speaker 2: It's probably old footage.
• 8:20
  Speaker 1: I think it's I don't know. It looks kind of
• 8:22
  Speaker 1: new because Mary looked like Mary now because Mary looks
• 8:25
  Speaker 1: different from last season.
• 8:26
  Speaker 2: Yeah, I guess she was looking bad. Honey.
• 8:28
  Speaker 1: It's looking a little bit better. One other thing about
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: the sale of the house is that apparently a TikToker
• 8:36
  Speaker 1: made an appointment with the realtor to go and view
• 8:41
  Speaker 1: the McMansion with one of her friends. They surreptitiously video taped.
• 8:49
  Speaker 1: There's no tape. I'm such a boomer. They surreptitiously videoed
• 8:53
  Speaker 1: within the home after lying to the realtors that they
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: were interested in buying Stop and then they made some
• 8:59
  Speaker 1: sort of a TikTok, and apparently the realtor when they
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: showed for the appointment, said that Cody and Robin were
• 9:06
  Speaker 1: already under contract for a bigger home in Flagstaff, closer
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: to the city stop it, yep. And then there was
• 9:14
  Speaker 1: somebody else, honey, and I send it to you on
• 9:16
  Speaker 1: instagram't know if you've seen it. No, But somebody else said, well,
• 9:19
  Speaker 1: I looked to see what was available in the area,
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: and there is a house that is currently under contract
• 9:25
  Speaker 1: for like three point nine million dollars. Stop beautiful palatial
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: home which is under contract. So the timing is right,
• 9:34
  Speaker 1: it's in the correct area. And so I'm ninety percent
• 9:38
  Speaker 1: sure that that's not the house, but ten percent of
• 9:41
  Speaker 1: the things it could be that they are actually upgrading
• 9:46
  Speaker 1: their domicile to a real life mansion.
• 9:49
  Speaker 2: Literally, why and how where's all this money coming from?
• 9:54
  Speaker 2: Did they sell Coyote Pass?
• 9:55
  Speaker 1: No, we would have all known that.
• 9:57
  Speaker 2: We would have known. That is fucking weird. Man. If
• 10:00
  Speaker 2: they actually are getting a three million dollar home, that's why.
• 10:04
  Speaker 1: Four million dollars?
• 10:05
  Speaker 2: How do they have that money?
• 10:06
  Speaker 1: But the realtor apparently said that they're already under contract
• 10:09
  Speaker 1: for a bigger home like wherever it is a bigger
• 10:12
  Speaker 1: home if it's true. Like realtors tend to say things
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: like that. Yeah, I'm give like bullshit reasons that the
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: person is leaving the home. But I mean, if it's true,
• 10:22
  Speaker 1: I would be so upset about it. I'm not so invested.
• 10:26
  Speaker 1: Makes me mad for Janelle, honey, yep, it makes me
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: mad for Janelle and for Mary.
• 10:31
  Speaker 2: They should be the ones in a dorm apartment.
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: They didn't get ship those two women.
• 10:35
  Speaker 2: They didn't.
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: And you're gonna upgrade, so we're gonna have to see
• 10:38
  Speaker 1: what happens.
• 10:39
  Speaker 2: Girl. That's insane.
• 10:40
  Speaker 1: It is insane.
• 10:41
  Speaker 2: If they actually purchase that, everybody's gonna know about it.
• 10:44
  Speaker 1: Into all right. Wow. The next bit of goss that
• 10:49
  Speaker 1: we have is a US Sun article and granted us Son,
• 10:53
  Speaker 1: I mean, it ain't shit. Yeah, nonetheless, we're gonna read it. Yeah.
• 10:56
  Speaker 1: Actually I picked pieces out of it. And it concerns
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: Cody and Rob And the title of this article is
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: another divorce. Sister Wives star Robin Brown may leave husband
• 11:07
  Speaker 1: Cody due to his controlling behavior in quote unquote volatile marriage.
• 11:11
  Speaker 2: Oh my gosh.
• 11:13
  Speaker 1: A source closed to the TLC family spoke exclusively with
• 11:17
  Speaker 1: the US Sun shedding light on what's allegedly happening behind
• 11:20
  Speaker 1: closed doors. Robin and Cody are not doing well. They
• 11:24
  Speaker 1: have been very unhappy. I mean they've been unhappy since
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: everything fell apart, but even more so now it's getting worse.
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: The source claimed a big reason for their relationship downfall
• 11:35
  Speaker 1: is allegedly how angry Cody is. Quote He's just really
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: mad at the world right now. He's not who he
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: used to be at all. He's completely changed. He's angry,
• 11:45
  Speaker 1: and he's volatile, and he doesn't like anybody that's not
• 11:48
  Speaker 1: worshiping him.
• 11:49
  Speaker 2: Wow.
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: The source also claimed that Cody is very controlling, which
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: has led Robin to become submissive. Allegedly, Cody is controlling
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: so much of her life right now that it has
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: made her not happy. The source explained that Robin used
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: to be more social, she visited friends and talked on
• 12:06
  Speaker 1: the phone for hours, but that no longer happens. They
• 12:10
  Speaker 1: also think Robin could definitely leave if things continue in
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: the current direction. Quote, Robin is not committed to staying
• 12:17
  Speaker 1: if things don't change. That's just what it has come
• 12:20
  Speaker 1: down to. Their marriage is not going to sustain this
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: level of control. Further, she's not going to let her
• 12:27
  Speaker 1: kids be raised in the same volatile, angry state that
• 12:31
  Speaker 1: her other kids were raised in. Cody is turning into
• 12:34
  Speaker 1: a mirror image of David Jessup. That's Robin's first husband,
• 12:39
  Speaker 1: and she took her kids away from David Jessup and
• 12:42
  Speaker 1: took his parental control away. You think she's going to
• 12:44
  Speaker 1: stick around for this? No, the source said, so what.
• 12:48
  Speaker 2: That would be? Z?
• 12:52
  Speaker 1: So this is a source. Like a lot of these
• 12:54
  Speaker 1: online publications like just pull their content straight from Reddit. Yah,
• 12:59
  Speaker 1: You'll have people giving their opinions about what could be happening,
• 13:02
  Speaker 1: and they'll make a whole ass article out of it.
• 13:05
  Speaker 1: But this again claims to have a source. I'm wondering
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: who that source might be. I'm wondering about the veracity
• 13:10
  Speaker 1: of it, because if it is true, can you.
• 13:13
  Speaker 2: Imagine, bitch, that would rock the world to have Cody
• 13:19
  Speaker 2: have four divorces. Toby, I'm not wishing anything. Sin's Ben
• 13:27
  Speaker 2: carry melon?
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Yeah, true, true, true, true, true. But but dear God
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: on col if you could hear our prayers, please, I mean, justice, Cody,
• 13:40
  Speaker 1: what are you doing?
• 13:41
  Speaker 2: I mean, I don't know how you could be happily
• 13:43
  Speaker 2: married to Cody Brown?
• 13:45
  Speaker 1: Or Robin Brown, I mean, but I mean definitely Cody Brown.
• 13:51
  Speaker 1: I mean, and once the money goes in my opinion,
• 13:54
  Speaker 1: that's when Robin starts thinking about going.
• 13:56
  Speaker 2: Now.
• 13:57
  Speaker 1: I don't know what kind of prospects she has now
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: because she's I don't know, forty five years old and
• 14:02
  Speaker 1: she don't have a job. In my sister wives closet,
• 14:05
  Speaker 1: that is not a job, no, So she would have
• 14:08
  Speaker 1: to attach herself like a parasite or a barnacle to
• 14:12
  Speaker 1: the ass of another man and start sucking out his
• 14:15
  Speaker 1: life force and his money. But like, that's harder to
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: do when you're close to fifty and you have a
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: lot of debt under you.
• 14:22
  Speaker 2: Yeah, about true.
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: So what is she gonna do. She gonna get a job,
• 14:25
  Speaker 1: She's gonna sign up with the temp agency. She's gonna
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: go work with Kohls for all those discounts on those glasses.
• 14:30
  Speaker 2: Well, I mean, if she leaves him, she could be
• 14:33
  Speaker 2: interviewed just like Christine and Janelle and all of them.
• 14:37
  Speaker 2: So she could make money like the wives are making
• 14:40
  Speaker 2: as being the fourth ex wife and just outing Cody.
• 14:43
  Speaker 2: So she wanted to go down that route, I feel
• 14:45
  Speaker 2: like she could make money. It would be Cody who
• 14:47
  Speaker 2: would be broken. Yeyeah.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: Yeah, his biggest fear is poverty. You're right, I actually right?
• 14:54
  Speaker 1: Like if she left and started selling plexus or got
• 14:57
  Speaker 1: involved with various and sundry Mormon, Yes, she would first
• 15:02
  Speaker 1: of all find the favor of the audience, who would
• 15:04
  Speaker 1: fully support her for leaving for sure, even though she
• 15:07
  Speaker 1: herself is a troll totally and a demon. Yeah, but
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: we would fully support her leaving Cody Brown.
• 15:12
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 15:12
  Speaker 1: She could make a bag, probably more than she could
• 15:14
  Speaker 1: make with Cody Brown. And she could find herself another
• 15:17
  Speaker 1: man who doesn't have to curl his hair with a
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: curling iron totally.
• 15:20
  Speaker 2: Maybe she could find another David Woolly bald. Yeah maybe,
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: I mean full on bald. I feel like she would
• 15:26
  Speaker 2: have a better chance and success than Cody Brown. Cody
• 15:29
  Speaker 2: will be like a typical divorced dad in his one
• 15:32
  Speaker 2: bedroom apartment right eating pizza off the floor because he
• 15:35
  Speaker 2: has no money and no furniture and he's broke. And
• 15:38
  Speaker 2: then he'll try and figure out how to sell guns somewhere.
• 15:40
  Speaker 2: He'll move to, like New Mexico, maybe sell some topaz
• 15:44
  Speaker 2: or whatever, and like that'll be his life. Serious, can't
• 15:48
  Speaker 2: you see that? I don't see that. Yeah, yeah, so
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: I don't know, but that was so good. Yeah. I
• 15:54
  Speaker 2: don't feel like Robin's gonna leave him though. That's the thing.
• 15:57
  Speaker 1: I don't know where she goes. I don't know what
• 15:58
  Speaker 1: she does if she sam other than what we've just
• 16:01
  Speaker 1: plotted out for her. She should listen to a couple
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: of rackets on the internet. But I think she's very
• 16:07
  Speaker 1: deeply affected by the hate of the public, like totally.
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: I feel like she would probably be scared to venture
• 16:16
  Speaker 1: out on her own and start a new business. And
• 16:19
  Speaker 1: I don't think she feels confident that we would rally
• 16:21
  Speaker 1: behind her, but we would. I would.
• 16:24
  Speaker 2: It was like, yeah, if she's like, you know, I
• 16:26
  Speaker 2: didn't expect this to happen, Like I didn't want this
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: to happen. I was just being a good wife to Cody,
• 16:31
  Speaker 2: and like I'm working on things with the other wives.
• 16:34
  Speaker 2: Like if she came out like that, she could have
• 16:37
  Speaker 2: a redemption art.
• 16:38
  Speaker 1: She could she could spin it. She could really could
• 16:40
  Speaker 1: totally spin it. I Mean, there's like two roads before you, Rob.
• 16:44
  Speaker 1: There's the road you're on now with bum ass Cody
• 16:48
  Speaker 1: Brown with no money in sight, honey, and then there's
• 16:51
  Speaker 1: this other road where you could create something for yourself,
• 16:54
  Speaker 1: find yourself a new man who's got a real job
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: that you might actually be sexually attracted to. It's a
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: new world.
• 17:01
  Speaker 2: Maybe she could be on milf manor.
• 17:05
  Speaker 1: She kind of looks like Barbie.
• 17:06
  Speaker 2: Yeah, probably sort of.
• 17:08
  Speaker 1: Anyway we have in terms of hot goss.
• 17:11
  Speaker 2: Yeah, that's good.
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: Now let's get into the final episode from season five
• 17:17
  Speaker 1: entitled hard to Say Good thought. Logan, you're going to
• 17:21
  Speaker 1: call right down the street, right down fifteen minutes away.
• 17:25
  Speaker 2: In a fucking dorm.
• 17:26
  Speaker 1: We can see it ANYWHI can visit.
• 17:27
  Speaker 2: You, Logan sleep and oh my god, we're so sad.
• 17:31
  Speaker 2: Who's gonna parent our kids for us? That's exactly what
• 17:34
  Speaker 2: they're thinking. But we start the episode with a very
• 17:37
  Speaker 2: interesting discussion with Mona.
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: The best part, Oh my god, this is so the
• 17:42
  Speaker 1: best part.
• 17:43
  Speaker 2: Good. All the wives are picking out their options for
• 17:46
  Speaker 2: their houses because they're getting built, so they got to
• 17:48
  Speaker 2: pick the carpets and the tile and the stone and
• 17:52
  Speaker 2: all this other bullshit. And we start with Christine kind
• 17:55
  Speaker 2: of complaining about like having to get everything ready because
• 17:58
  Speaker 2: she's in debt or something.
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: Well, she's bitching because they're still only pre qualified. They
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: haven't gotten the full qualification. The loan has not been funded, honey.
• 18:09
  Speaker 1: So she's worried because she can't be laid on any
• 18:12
  Speaker 1: of her bills and it's very difficult for her, I
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: guess because she doesn't know how to use a check
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: book and pay her own bills. And she's up at
• 18:17
  Speaker 1: three am and she's busy. Yeah, it's just a lot
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: to take care of being an adult. Yeah, So she's
• 18:23
  Speaker 1: worried about it. And they're on the couch as she
• 18:26
  Speaker 1: speaking about this, and Coldy's like, well that's everybody, Christine,
• 18:30
  Speaker 1: we're all trying to stay above board until the loan
• 18:33
  Speaker 1: goes through. So dismissive, very dismissive.
• 18:36
  Speaker 2: And Robin calls him out for which I thought was
• 18:38
  Speaker 2: kind of interesting. She's like, don't fucking say that, Like
• 18:40
  Speaker 2: we're all struggling. She's allowed to be struggling. And Christine's like,
• 18:44
  Speaker 2: you're the worst. You suck at validation, suck at validating.
• 18:48
  Speaker 2: I'm like, yeah, damn. And then she apologizes and says,
• 18:51
  Speaker 2: I'm sorry. I get really mean when I'm stressed out,
• 18:53
  Speaker 2: and I can relate as.
• 18:54
  Speaker 1: A fellow aries mean person.
• 18:57
  Speaker 2: I'm a mean person when I'm stressed. I'm such a bit.
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: Yeah, I know, I know.
• 19:07
  Speaker 2: Yeah, don't test me.
• 19:09
  Speaker 1: I know, I won't.
• 19:10
  Speaker 2: I care a lot. I'm kidding.
• 19:15
  Speaker 1: Oh, of course you're kidding. So they make it down
• 19:18
  Speaker 1: to Pinnacle Homes and Robin is the first to pick
• 19:23
  Speaker 1: her options and it's super easy, breezy, beautiful cover girl.
• 19:26
  Speaker 1: She's never had a thing. She's like, I'll take whatever carpet,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: I'll take whatever tile. I'm fine, which Cody really appreciates
• 19:33
  Speaker 1: because Robin never gives them any trouble.
• 19:36
  Speaker 2: She's a perfect submissive wife.
• 19:37
  Speaker 1: That's right. But then we have Mary Trundle.
• 19:41
  Speaker 2: My god, and she's already two hundred dollars over budget.
• 19:45
  Speaker 1: She hasn't selected her final options at all.
• 19:48
  Speaker 2: Nothing.
• 19:48
  Speaker 1: This is all the wet bar, this is that fifth bedroom,
• 19:51
  Speaker 1: this is the hobby room, the partry, French fucking doors,
• 19:54
  Speaker 1: this is all of that stuff that she insisted upon having.
• 19:58
  Speaker 1: Has already put her two hundred dollars over budget, so
• 20:01
  Speaker 1: she gets no choices. She gets nothing now, and Cody
• 20:04
  Speaker 1: tries to tell her that as soon as she sits down, yep, like,
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: let me just set your expectations. You have nothing.
• 20:09
  Speaker 2: Yeah, you're over budget.
• 20:10
  Speaker 1: Yeah, we're just taking like the basics and then you're
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: out of here.
• 20:13
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 20:14
  Speaker 1: And Mary is saying, I'm feeling some weird energy from you, Cody,
• 20:19
  Speaker 1: like you're coming at me pretty aggressive.
• 20:22
  Speaker 2: And she gets immediately emotional. She's like, well, I'm clueless,
• 20:25
  Speaker 2: like I didn't know it was over budget?
• 20:27
  Speaker 1: Yes you did, Yes you fucking did, Yes you did.
• 20:29
  Speaker 2: How are you so stupid that you haven't been paying
• 20:31
  Speaker 2: attention to this entire fucking time? You are over budget?
• 20:34
  Speaker 1: We've had emails from Mona talking about you being over budget.
• 20:37
  Speaker 1: We have been in office rooms with Mama before with
• 20:40
  Speaker 1: the French doors and the whip bar, and everybody knows
• 20:43
  Speaker 1: you're over budget. So how is this a surprise to you?
• 20:46
  Speaker 2: Like miss me with this shit, She's acting so clueless,
• 20:49
  Speaker 2: and she's like, well, I still want to go through everything.
• 20:51
  Speaker 2: You get to go through all the options with all
• 20:53
  Speaker 2: the other wives, so it's only fair.
• 20:55
  Speaker 1: And I still want to see the options that there's
• 20:58
  Speaker 1: no way that I can like the extra luxe carpet,
• 21:02
  Speaker 1: the extra beautiful stone that's gonna cost even more. I
• 21:05
  Speaker 1: still want to see that. I just want to see
• 21:07
  Speaker 1: it's life.
• 21:07
  Speaker 2: I want to be able to make an informed decision.
• 21:10
  Speaker 1: Right where you have no money, Mary, and that's the
• 21:12
  Speaker 1: reality of it. But she can't accept that, and so
• 21:15
  Speaker 1: she does this weird thing where she conflates it into
• 21:19
  Speaker 1: some sort of a relationship issue, like it's Cody who's
• 21:23
  Speaker 1: being judgmental of her. It's Cody who is looking down
• 21:27
  Speaker 1: on her when she doesn't really know what's happening. And
• 21:30
  Speaker 1: I'm like, actually, I'm kind of on Cody's side. Yeah,
• 21:33
  Speaker 1: I'm just trying to tell you, like, we ain't got
• 21:35
  Speaker 1: no money, honey, you're.
• 21:37
  Speaker 2: Over fucking budget. These houses are like four hundred grand each, right,
• 21:41
  Speaker 2: Like this is crazy, and you're complaining about how you
• 21:45
  Speaker 2: have to have French doors and you have to have
• 21:47
  Speaker 2: everything perfect and like on the couch. Mary's like her
• 21:50
  Speaker 2: logic with this, because you know, she's a very logical person.
• 21:54
  Speaker 1: She's a capricorn.
• 21:55
  Speaker 2: Yeah, she's very practical, is what she says. But she
• 21:58
  Speaker 2: says the reason why she wants everything to be perfect
• 22:00
  Speaker 2: now so she doesn't have to spend extra money later
• 22:03
  Speaker 2: down the road to make it perfect. That makes no
• 22:07
  Speaker 2: fucking sense.
• 22:07
  Speaker 1: No, And you don't have the money for it, no, so.
• 22:10
  Speaker 2: Wait until you have the money for it, and then
• 22:12
  Speaker 2: you can do the upgrades.
• 22:14
  Speaker 1: Well, she starts shorting out and her wall go up.
• 22:18
  Speaker 1: My walls are up, and she's like, I'm just gonna
• 22:21
  Speaker 1: step out and Mona, would it be okay if you
• 22:23
  Speaker 1: meet with the other wives and I'll come in at
• 22:24
  Speaker 1: the end and we can talk about it then. And
• 22:26
  Speaker 1: she's near tears and or crying after.
• 22:29
  Speaker 2: She's already fighting with Cody in front of these people.
• 22:31
  Speaker 1: You have no options, like this, is it like pick
• 22:33
  Speaker 1: your dumb carpet, your basic carpet, pick your basic tile,
• 22:36
  Speaker 1: and get up on out of here and leave it right.
• 22:39
  Speaker 1: But she doesn't want it. She wants the good stuff, yes,
• 22:40
  Speaker 1: and she wants to actually take it from another wife
• 22:43
  Speaker 1: in order to get it, which we will get to.
• 22:45
  Speaker 2: Uh huh, well, because the next wife we have is Janelle, right,
• 22:48
  Speaker 2: and Janelle is also easy breezy. She's like whatever. She's like, oh,
• 22:51
  Speaker 2: I'm over budget with the concrete slab, Fine, we won't
• 22:54
  Speaker 2: do it. I'll just diyat it's cool.
• 22:56
  Speaker 1: And Cody's like, our kids are gonna be bringing into
• 23:00
  Speaker 1: the house directly into the carpet if you don't put
• 23:02
  Speaker 1: a concrete patch. She's like, I'll figure it out.
• 23:04
  Speaker 2: I'll do it later.
• 23:05
  Speaker 1: It'll be fine. Yeah, she has no problem going without,
• 23:08
  Speaker 1: unlike Mary. Then we bring in Christine. Now Christine is
• 23:11
  Speaker 1: under budget, she's got some room, yep, she has some options.
• 23:16
  Speaker 1: And Cody says, well, maybe you can kick some of
• 23:18
  Speaker 1: that overage toward Mary because she's over budget, and he
• 23:23
  Speaker 1: kind of laughs about it as if it's a joke,
• 23:25
  Speaker 1: and Christine's like, well, let me see what we have first,
• 23:28
  Speaker 1: and she's like, I'm very interested in getting some stone
• 23:31
  Speaker 1: on the outside of the house. And then Cody brings
• 23:36
  Speaker 1: it up again because Christine's going to make the choice
• 23:39
  Speaker 1: for the stone on the exterior of the home, and
• 23:42
  Speaker 1: Cody's like, well, I mean maybe we can think about
• 23:45
  Speaker 1: it because Mary is over budget and we can use
• 23:48
  Speaker 1: that money for Mary. And this makes Christine feel bad
• 23:52
  Speaker 1: and she's like, well, let's look at the prices and
• 23:54
  Speaker 1: then I'll make a decision, but I'm probably going to
• 23:56
  Speaker 1: be selfish and choose the stone that I want and
• 23:58
  Speaker 1: not give it to Mary. And then on the couch
• 24:01
  Speaker 1: they have a discussion about it and Christine apologizes to
• 24:04
  Speaker 1: Mary like I'm sorry, Like I know that's selfish, and
• 24:06
  Speaker 1: Mary's like, don't be sorry. I'm the one who's over
• 24:08
  Speaker 1: budget over here. Yeah, and Cody's like, well, I was
• 24:11
  Speaker 1: just joking. I didn't mean it, no, but you did
• 24:14
  Speaker 1: mean it. And then we have Janelle saying, I don't care.
• 24:20
  Speaker 1: As long as you're not taking out of my fund
• 24:22
  Speaker 1: to fund your bullshit, I'm fine. As long as I
• 24:24
  Speaker 1: get what I need, I'm fine. Which my inference from
• 24:27
  Speaker 1: that is that there's been a precedent here, like in
• 24:31
  Speaker 1: the past, Mary has one hundred percent dipped into the
• 24:35
  Speaker 1: funds of the other wives to I don't know, pay
• 24:39
  Speaker 1: for her food, pay for furniture, furniture, for rent, and
• 24:43
  Speaker 1: it's been unfair.
• 24:44
  Speaker 2: Oh totally. And it's probably been Janelle having to take
• 24:48
  Speaker 2: the sacrifice, because it seems like Janelle's kind of a
• 24:51
  Speaker 2: sacrificing person, like she'll give up what she wants just
• 24:55
  Speaker 2: to save for like the greater good, whereas Christine's a
• 24:59
  Speaker 2: little bit more hard headed. Probably Christine probably in the
• 25:02
  Speaker 2: past was like, I'm homeschooling a million fucking kids, like
• 25:05
  Speaker 2: you're not taking my money for groceries, Like you're not
• 25:08
  Speaker 2: taking my money to help with kids' school supplies, like
• 25:11
  Speaker 2: fuck you. So it probably had to be Janelle and
• 25:13
  Speaker 2: now the tables have turned, and now Cody's trying to
• 25:16
  Speaker 2: get Christine to give up some of her money because
• 25:19
  Speaker 2: she conveniently is under budget. Bitch, no miss me with that.
• 25:25
  Speaker 2: And then we have Mary making her decisions and she
• 25:28
  Speaker 2: ends up being like four grand over budget.
• 25:31
  Speaker 1: Thirty six sixty five over budget. She has to bring
• 25:34
  Speaker 1: Robin ann so that Cody will feel compelled. Yeh, did
• 25:38
  Speaker 1: not get up in her ass about that. But Mary
• 25:41
  Speaker 1: says something like, well, but don't worry about it. I'll
• 25:43
  Speaker 1: pay for that out of my own funds. And I'm like,
• 25:45
  Speaker 1: what funds?
• 25:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah?
• 25:46
  Speaker 1: Like what you don't have a job.
• 25:48
  Speaker 2: Don't have a job.
• 25:48
  Speaker 1: Your fund is TLC. All of your payments go into
• 25:52
  Speaker 1: one account. It's the family LLC. So what funds are
• 25:55
  Speaker 1: you talking about? Christy are going to pay for this?
• 25:58
  Speaker 1: It doesn't make any sense you don't have a job.
• 26:00
  Speaker 2: I feel like there's some money laundering going around in
• 26:03
  Speaker 2: this family. I feel like Cody probably moved money around
• 26:07
  Speaker 2: a lot, like not just between him and Robin, but
• 26:09
  Speaker 2: I feel like he was moving it around between all
• 26:11
  Speaker 2: the wives, Like if he's the beneficiary of all of
• 26:13
  Speaker 2: these accounts or whatever. Yeah, he's a fiduciary of it. No,
• 26:20
  Speaker 2: it's fine. Then he's probably moving it all around. Sure,
• 26:24
  Speaker 2: he's probably making agreements with some of the wives and
• 26:27
  Speaker 2: not saying anything like if he thinks like, oh, it's fine,
• 26:31
  Speaker 2: a couple hundred dollars here and there, whatever, it's fine,
• 26:33
  Speaker 2: Like that's probably what he did.
• 26:34
  Speaker 1: And the reason Janelle is but heart is because she's
• 26:36
  Speaker 1: the one who's actually doing the record and the accounting,
• 26:39
  Speaker 1: and she sees how he moves it around. Because if
• 26:41
  Speaker 1: you recall, I don't know, two seasons ago, she's like, well,
• 26:44
  Speaker 1: I see where that money goes, and that money doesn't
• 26:46
  Speaker 1: need to be going to all of these things. It
• 26:47
  Speaker 1: could be allocated in different ways. So she sees what
• 26:50
  Speaker 1: he's doing when he's moving his little shell game, his
• 26:52
  Speaker 1: little shells around. But he's the patriarch, so the buck
• 26:56
  Speaker 1: stops with him. He can do what he wants. So
• 26:59
  Speaker 1: I'm just wondering where this money's gonna come from, then, Christine,
• 27:03
  Speaker 1: I don't think so. I think Christine used every last
• 27:05
  Speaker 1: dollar that she hoped to get all of the things
• 27:08
  Speaker 1: that she wanted. I think she's unwilling to share with
• 27:10
  Speaker 1: Mary because I think in the past she's been forced
• 27:12
  Speaker 1: to do so, yeah, and so has Janelle, and Mary
• 27:14
  Speaker 1: is putting on this big show on the couch's like,
• 27:16
  Speaker 1: oh my god, don't feel selfish. Absolutely not. I'll pay
• 27:19
  Speaker 1: for it myself. I'm the one who's over budget. But
• 27:23
  Speaker 1: when you break down the logistics, it's going to have
• 27:25
  Speaker 1: to come out of the family fund at the end of.
• 27:27
  Speaker 2: The day, totally. And this is probably why Mary is
• 27:29
  Speaker 2: resentful over Janelle and Christine as well, because she feels
• 27:32
  Speaker 2: like she's judged or criticized. And Mary probably takes it
• 27:36
  Speaker 2: personally because she has one kid, like she probably uses
• 27:39
  Speaker 2: that as an excuse all the time to justify why
• 27:43
  Speaker 2: she needs to be forty six hundred dollars over budget
• 27:45
  Speaker 2: in her house. And then on the couch again, it's
• 27:47
  Speaker 2: the same bullshit, like, well, I had to have the
• 27:49
  Speaker 2: wet bar because they like to entertain, and in order
• 27:52
  Speaker 2: to have the wet bar, I have to have the
• 27:54
  Speaker 2: pea and tree in the fifth bedroom in the hobby room.
• 27:57
  Speaker 2: So I have to have all these things and my
• 27:59
  Speaker 2: French doors.
• 28:00
  Speaker 1: Hmmm. It's like and then we learn at the end
• 28:03
  Speaker 1: of this episode information that I didn't know, which is
• 28:06
  Speaker 1: that Leon is actually leaving at the end of this
• 28:08
  Speaker 1: school year. So Leon is only going to be in
• 28:11
  Speaker 1: this finished house for like six months, and then Mary
• 28:14
  Speaker 1: is in an empty nest. Yeah, with five fucking bedrooms,
• 28:18
  Speaker 1: a hobby room, a pantry, a wet bar, and French doors,
• 28:22
  Speaker 1: and over budget and having the fact. It's just so unreasonable.
• 28:27
  Speaker 1: It's so unreasonable. And even though she may not be
• 28:30
  Speaker 1: dipping into the funds of the other wives, I would
• 28:32
  Speaker 1: still be pissed if I'm Christine, I would still be
• 28:35
  Speaker 1: pissed if I'm Janelle.
• 28:36
  Speaker 2: Oh for sure.
• 28:37
  Speaker 1: It's like, you don't need all.
• 28:38
  Speaker 2: Of this now.
• 28:38
  Speaker 1: And as we said so many times before, people probably
• 28:41
  Speaker 1: hate me because I'm such a broken record. Install your
• 28:43
  Speaker 1: wet bar after the fact, just like Janelle's gonna install
• 28:47
  Speaker 1: her concrete pad. He why do is hire a contractor?
• 28:50
  Speaker 1: It's not a big fucking deal.
• 28:52
  Speaker 2: She doesn't want to have to deal with that. She
• 28:54
  Speaker 2: wants it to be perfect. And I can't remember if
• 28:56
  Speaker 2: I mentioned this a couple episodes ago or not. I
• 28:58
  Speaker 2: saw this on Reddit. Somebody had made comment about why
• 29:01
  Speaker 2: Mary's so particular about having her house and everything be
• 29:05
  Speaker 2: so fucking perfect. It's like a coping mechanism. She's doing
• 29:08
  Speaker 2: it because her life isn't perfect, her marriage isn't perfect,
• 29:11
  Speaker 2: she couldn't have her perfect eight kid family, like she
• 29:15
  Speaker 2: is struggling mentally, probably, and so that's why she's like
• 29:18
  Speaker 2: focusing so much on this stupid fucking wet bar and
• 29:21
  Speaker 2: this big ass house. But it's like, girl, go to
• 29:25
  Speaker 2: therapy quick, coping this house that you're gonna be in
• 29:29
  Speaker 2: by yourself because your husband's not gonna fuck you anymore.
• 29:32
  Speaker 1: After this, especially if hasn't been fucking her no.
• 29:36
  Speaker 2: And I think like the whole IVF like trying to
• 29:38
  Speaker 2: figure out if she's gonna make a decision. I think
• 29:41
  Speaker 2: that's him being like, we're not gonna fuck anymore. If
• 29:44
  Speaker 2: you don't want to have a kid, we're not gonna
• 29:45
  Speaker 2: fuck anymore. Really, we're not gonna have an intimate relationship.
• 29:48
  Speaker 2: I bet that's what it is.
• 29:50
  Speaker 1: I don't think they are having an intimate relationship based
• 29:52
  Speaker 1: on the things that Mary is saying in twenty twenty three,
• 29:55
  Speaker 1: twenty twenty four. I think they're already not doing it.
• 29:57
  Speaker 1: But it may be his formal declaration like yeah, I'm
• 30:00
  Speaker 1: cutting this dick off, that's what I'm They can get
• 30:02
  Speaker 1: in this pencil, wet, this pencil is mine and only
• 30:04
  Speaker 1: for Robin.
• 30:05
  Speaker 2: Yep. And that's probably why she goes back and forth,
• 30:09
  Speaker 2: because it's like, well, do I want to try and
• 30:10
  Speaker 2: have a kid and have it fail? Like, no, she
• 30:13
  Speaker 2: doesn't have to go through that heartbreak. But I don't know.
• 30:15
  Speaker 2: I just think Mary's like a crazy fucking person and
• 30:19
  Speaker 2: there's a whole house debacle on my girl. You're insane.
• 30:22
  Speaker 1: That's an interesting idea that she would be using her
• 30:26
  Speaker 1: physical space in order to have some control in her life,
• 30:31
  Speaker 1: because her out of controllness shows up in different ways
• 30:34
  Speaker 1: in her life. So it's just maybe something she feels
• 30:37
  Speaker 1: like she can do to get her away to have
• 30:39
  Speaker 1: something nice for herself because what she wanted, what she
• 30:43
  Speaker 1: needed from her husband, from her family has been taken
• 30:45
  Speaker 1: away from her, like through every fault of her own.
• 30:48
  Speaker 1: By the way, Oh, I mean, she absolutely contributed to
• 30:51
  Speaker 1: the reason people feel the way that they do about her.
• 30:53
  Speaker 1: But at the same time, Cody and Robin and everything
• 30:56
  Speaker 1: that's going on, I mean, I feel for her. Yeah,
• 30:58
  Speaker 1: this isn't a great coping mechanism, and I'm just not
• 31:01
  Speaker 1: sure how you're funding this. It really doesn't make any
• 31:04
  Speaker 1: sense to me.
• 31:05
  Speaker 2: It makes no sense and I wish we could get
• 31:06
  Speaker 2: into the coins, but we won't.
• 31:09
  Speaker 1: Bummer.
• 31:10
  Speaker 2: And then we have Mary making a family video for Logan.
• 31:14
  Speaker 2: I'm a snory and I mean, like, I guess it's
• 31:18
  Speaker 2: cute or whatever, it's kind of cringey because, like, you know,
• 31:22
  Speaker 2: an eighteen year old boy who just wants to go
• 31:23
  Speaker 2: to college and get out of his family house. He
• 31:25
  Speaker 2: doesn't give a fuck.
• 31:26
  Speaker 1: I don't want your quilt, bitch.
• 31:27
  Speaker 2: I don't want the quilt too. I'm like, Okay, so
• 31:31
  Speaker 2: you're spending all this money on these houses, yeah, and
• 31:34
  Speaker 2: you can't get me like a mini fridge, yeah for
• 31:36
  Speaker 2: my dorm room, a Starbucks card, I mean something subway
• 31:40
  Speaker 2: like what You're gonna make me a quilt.
• 31:43
  Speaker 1: That I am gonna be too embarrassed to display. How
• 31:47
  Speaker 1: am I gonna get down with some shoddy exactly? If
• 31:50
  Speaker 1: I have got this fucking family, it's not going to work.
• 31:54
  Speaker 2: My dad's weird photos staring at me with.
• 31:57
  Speaker 1: His be a godly man, God Jesus. We're jumping ahead
• 32:02
  Speaker 1: a little bit, but yeah, Mary has got her sony
• 32:04
  Speaker 1: handicam out and she's sucking it up.
• 32:06
  Speaker 2: And doesn't record. I don't care. Yeah.
• 32:08
  Speaker 1: And then we move on to the balding part.
• 32:10
  Speaker 2: Let's get to that. Cody gets a hair cut, and
• 32:13
  Speaker 2: this was great.
• 32:14
  Speaker 1: A long segment. This was about his balding.
• 32:17
  Speaker 2: Good. The producers did him dirty.
• 32:19
  Speaker 1: Loved it.
• 32:20
  Speaker 2: I loved it because this hairstylist who's paid for by
• 32:23
  Speaker 2: TLZ is doing his hair and she's like, you know what, Cody,
• 32:26
  Speaker 2: your hair is thinning really bad.
• 32:29
  Speaker 1: Just in the last year since I've been cutting it,
• 32:31
  Speaker 1: you have lost a ton of hair, dude, Like, look
• 32:33
  Speaker 1: at all this skin right here, got all the skin
• 32:36
  Speaker 1: from where you're balding. And Cody's acting like he knows
• 32:40
  Speaker 1: and he's okay with it, and I get it, but
• 32:42
  Speaker 1: you know, deep down, oh my god, it hurts so bad.
• 32:45
  Speaker 1: He's got period pain. Oh it's always got cramps. Honey,
• 32:49
  Speaker 1: He's in pain.
• 32:50
  Speaker 2: And then he wants us to believe that the reason
• 32:52
  Speaker 2: why he has his hair long is because the wives
• 32:55
  Speaker 2: all love it, because they love this like shaggy surfer
• 32:58
  Speaker 2: look that I have going on here. Love it.
• 33:01
  Speaker 1: Okay, I don't know that that's the look that you're
• 33:04
  Speaker 1: actually achieving, says the woman from Hawaii.
• 33:07
  Speaker 2: You've never served in life, and I mean I think.
• 33:11
  Speaker 1: I think he should have shaved it. And for a
• 33:13
  Speaker 1: second there I wondered if he was going to do that.
• 33:15
  Speaker 2: I hoped he was not going to.
• 33:17
  Speaker 1: I don't think Janelle wants it to be short. I
• 33:19
  Speaker 1: don't think Christine likes it short. I don't think any
• 33:21
  Speaker 1: of them actually want him to shave it.
• 33:24
  Speaker 2: I don't know how any of anybody could be attracted
• 33:26
  Speaker 2: to him.
• 33:27
  Speaker 1: Long or short in any form at all. But like,
• 33:30
  Speaker 1: imagine if he shaved it, he had a buzz cut,
• 33:32
  Speaker 1: but like a really close buzz cut. Sure, and he
• 33:34
  Speaker 1: grew like a fucking Sons of Anarchy beard. He wants
• 33:37
  Speaker 1: to be a manly man. What if you got a tattoo? Yeah,
• 33:39
  Speaker 1: I mean if you've got a piercing or something like that,
• 33:42
  Speaker 1: it would be it would be better than what we
• 33:44
  Speaker 1: got going on right now. It would be a lot
• 33:45
  Speaker 1: with your tufts of hair, I mean wind blowing. Oh
• 33:49
  Speaker 1: my god.
• 33:49
  Speaker 2: He even calls it what it is, a comb over.
• 33:52
  Speaker 2: He's like, it's literally a combover. Yeah, we know we've
• 33:54
  Speaker 2: been seeing it, but like we haven't even gotten to
• 33:56
  Speaker 2: like the best hair years of him yet. Have you've
• 34:00
  Speaker 2: seen the ones where his hair is super fucking long? Yes,
• 34:02
  Speaker 2: And straightened to filthy.
• 34:04
  Speaker 1: Yes, it is so terrible. I can't wait for those
• 34:08
  Speaker 1: so bad. It's really bad, but I mean it's not
• 34:11
  Speaker 1: worse than what we currently have with the Shirley Temple
• 34:15
  Speaker 1: curly cue curly girl method.
• 34:17
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, no four, this is the worst, right, this
• 34:20
  Speaker 2: one's really bad. Well, it's because he has no hair,
• 34:22
  Speaker 2: Like his hair is even more like thin, even more thin,
• 34:27
  Speaker 2: even thinner now than it is in twenty thirteen.
• 34:31
  Speaker 1: And he seems to understand he ain't got no hair
• 34:33
  Speaker 1: in twenty twelve, twenty thirteen.
• 34:35
  Speaker 2: But he says, he's so attached to it.
• 34:37
  Speaker 1: We know, yeah, we've seen it. We can tell the
• 34:41
  Speaker 1: various iterations over the years, honey.
• 34:43
  Speaker 2: And then he gets all fucking triggered because Maddie at
• 34:46
  Speaker 2: the family breakfast the next day is like, Dad, you're balding,
• 34:49
  Speaker 2: and he's like, shut up, Like he.
• 34:51
  Speaker 1: Just had his hair? Did he got his hair? Did?
• 34:53
  Speaker 1: It was all styled. He goes down to the breakfast
• 34:56
  Speaker 1: tables they can have a family moment before Logan gets
• 34:58
  Speaker 1: shipped off to college, and the first thing Maddy says is,
• 35:01
  Speaker 1: oh my god, you're Baldaddy, and he's like, don't say that.
• 35:04
  Speaker 1: That's rude.
• 35:06
  Speaker 2: That is so funny.
• 35:07
  Speaker 1: I loved it. And then on the couch, Maddy's like, yeah.
• 35:09
  Speaker 2: He's bald, he's super bald.
• 35:11
  Speaker 1: He's pretending he's not bald, but he is.
• 35:14
  Speaker 2: You know, And I actually have like a funny uncensored
• 35:17
  Speaker 2: for this.
• 35:18
  Speaker 1: All right, let's get back from uncensored. And by the way,
• 35:22
  Speaker 1: if you want to hear all of our uncensored bits, honey,
• 35:24
  Speaker 1: you got to go to the Patreon and you got
• 35:26
  Speaker 1: to subscribe, by the way. Oh and never mind, I
• 35:27
  Speaker 1: was going to give you a discount, but I forgot
• 35:29
  Speaker 1: about I didn't set it up yet. Can't be bothered,
• 35:32
  Speaker 1: it's too much. But we're back talking about Cody Balding,
• 35:38
  Speaker 1: Cody Balding Brown, Maddie calling him out. He's but hurt,
• 35:44
  Speaker 1: he's getting sensitive, and we see in the arc of
• 35:47
  Speaker 1: the seasons from this point on how he starts to
• 35:50
  Speaker 1: overcompensate for his drastic balding, his catastrophic balding journey. He
• 35:57
  Speaker 1: starts to overcompensate and hide it even more.
• 36:00
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah, for sure, yeah, and then acts like he
• 36:02
  Speaker 2: isn't anymore. Like even now with some of the photos
• 36:05
  Speaker 2: that have come out in twenty twenty four of the
• 36:07
  Speaker 2: whole cold de sac going on right up here with
• 36:10
  Speaker 2: the two pieces of hair just kind of hanging on
• 36:12
  Speaker 2: for dear life right here.
• 36:13
  Speaker 1: Why doesn't he just get one of those hair transplants
• 36:16
  Speaker 1: for men. I mean, I think it's like, what twenty
• 36:18
  Speaker 1: thousand dollars. I'm sure he's got the money for it.
• 36:21
  Speaker 2: Sometimes those fail, like it it requires like healthy follicles
• 36:25
  Speaker 2: and shit, and like sometimes it fails. I've known guys
• 36:27
  Speaker 2: who've gotten that done, like in their twenties because they
• 36:30
  Speaker 2: were balding hardcore and they were super self conscious and.
• 36:34
  Speaker 1: I hear it's really painful those yeah.
• 36:36
  Speaker 2: And you're swollen and shit, and you look like really
• 36:40
  Speaker 2: weird because you.
• 36:40
  Speaker 1: Got all these party part time.
• 36:42
  Speaker 2: Yeah.
• 36:42
  Speaker 1: But you would think for him, like he's so vain,
• 36:45
  Speaker 1: he's so attached to his celebrity, and he's got a
• 36:48
  Speaker 1: little pocket change, he's got that Lexus money, honey. You'd
• 36:51
  Speaker 1: think he would get some transplant action and try and
• 36:54
  Speaker 1: work that out.
• 36:54
  Speaker 2: And people are thinking he's got fillers and shit. I mean,
• 36:57
  Speaker 2: so it wouldn't put it past him. But maybe he's
• 37:00
  Speaker 2: just too old for that. Maybe they're like, you know what,
• 37:02
  Speaker 2: you're ancient, you're not gonna be able to have air anymore.
• 37:06
  Speaker 1: Well, but he's curling his hair as hard as he can.
• 37:09
  Speaker 1: He's curling his hair like it is his job. Like
• 37:11
  Speaker 1: that's all he does twenty four to seven is find
• 37:13
  Speaker 1: new ways to curl his fucking hair. He's very sensitive
• 37:16
  Speaker 1: about it.
• 37:17
  Speaker 2: He should just get a translat yeah, he should.
• 37:19
  Speaker 1: Anyway, back to the show.
• 37:21
  Speaker 2: Yeah, so then we have Mary making that dumb video
• 37:25
  Speaker 2: for Logan where he did that. Yeah, well we talked
• 37:28
  Speaker 2: about it. And then they show the video and they
• 37:31
  Speaker 2: give him his quilt, right, and he's like, oh, wow,
• 37:34
  Speaker 2: thanks for this lovely gift. Again. Should have gotten to
• 37:37
  Speaker 2: the minifridge that would have been great, or like a laptop.
• 37:39
  Speaker 1: Yeah, like, come on top, I mean money, give me
• 37:42
  Speaker 1: one thousand dollars my bank, I can start a bank account.
• 37:44
  Speaker 1: Would be so fantastic.
• 37:46
  Speaker 2: Yeah, but like something way better, like a quilt.
• 37:49
  Speaker 1: He does sit down on the floor, though, and he
• 37:50
  Speaker 1: does watch the entire video with all of the kids
• 37:53
  Speaker 1: telling stories about their memories of Logan, and you can
• 37:56
  Speaker 1: really see in the flashbacks just how parentify and therefore
• 38:01
  Speaker 1: abused he was by those adults in that house yet
• 38:04
  Speaker 1: and how all of the kids are going to miss them,
• 38:06
  Speaker 1: and they're crying, they're unhappy, and he says something like,
• 38:09
  Speaker 1: what I'm going to miss about my family is also
• 38:13
  Speaker 1: what I need to get away from, which is their chaos. Yes,
• 38:16
  Speaker 1: and the chaos. It's so crazy and it's so disorganized,
• 38:19
  Speaker 1: and somebody's always screaming and there's always something happening. But
• 38:22
  Speaker 1: at the same time, the chaos is the life of
• 38:24
  Speaker 1: the family. Yeah, so I'm gonna miss it, but I
• 38:26
  Speaker 1: also really want to get away from it.
• 38:28
  Speaker 2: And that's totally fucking fair. I mean, this is a
• 38:31
  Speaker 2: rite of passage, Like everybody needs to leave the nest eventually,
• 38:34
  Speaker 2: especially when you're a parentified child, like you want to
• 38:37
  Speaker 2: get the fuck out and just have your own independence.
• 38:40
  Speaker 2: So I'm sure he was like saying it with all
• 38:44
  Speaker 2: the love he had, but at the same time, he's like,
• 38:46
  Speaker 2: give me the fuck out of here.
• 38:47
  Speaker 1: Don't you have the feeling that he knows he was
• 38:49
  Speaker 1: parentified not the therapeutic term, but don't you think he
• 38:52
  Speaker 1: knows that they asked a lot of him and he's
• 38:55
  Speaker 1: ready to go.
• 38:55
  Speaker 2: I feel like every oldest child knows that. Like I
• 38:58
  Speaker 2: was the oldest child, I totally the mom Like that's
• 39:02
  Speaker 2: like a thing that you deal with a lot of
• 39:04
  Speaker 2: the time, especially in like a dysfunctional, crazy family, Like
• 39:06
  Speaker 2: I didn't have a big family, but I was doing everything,
• 39:09
  Speaker 2: so like you know, you know in your teen years
• 39:13
  Speaker 2: that you're fucking doing everything. And even Janelle brings it
• 39:15
  Speaker 2: up on the couch, She's like, he's been such an
• 39:17
  Speaker 2: instrumental part and like getting all of the kids ready
• 39:20
  Speaker 2: for school and like taking care of everything while I
• 39:23
  Speaker 2: work and Christine takes care of the littles or whatever.
• 39:27
  Speaker 2: Like so she admits it, but I'm like, are you
• 39:29
  Speaker 2: telling that to your son, Like I'm sure it would
• 39:31
  Speaker 2: mean a lot to hear from his mom.
• 39:33
  Speaker 1: I bet Janelle has said that, I know, seems like
• 39:36
  Speaker 1: she loves him so much, and she even says in
• 39:38
  Speaker 1: her video component her part of the video, she's like,
• 39:42
  Speaker 1: I want you to go there. I want you to
• 39:43
  Speaker 1: study hard, but I want you to play hard. Like
• 39:45
  Speaker 1: she really wants him to have a great experience and
• 39:49
  Speaker 1: become his own individual, even though she's worried because she's
• 39:52
  Speaker 1: scared he's not going to be a Mormon. Even though
• 39:54
  Speaker 1: she's worried because she's scared he's gonna hook up with
• 39:57
  Speaker 1: women and do all of the things that he's already
• 39:59
  Speaker 1: been doing that probably, but she lets him go. Yeah,
• 40:03
  Speaker 1: so I think she loves him so much, and I
• 40:05
  Speaker 1: do think Janelle is probably telling him that.
• 40:07
  Speaker 2: I hope so. But then Cody and his segment is like, yeah,
• 40:11
  Speaker 2: you're a decent individual. Yeah, Like, can we use any
• 40:14
  Speaker 2: other word? Can't you just be like you're an amazing son? No?
• 40:18
  Speaker 2: You can't.
• 40:18
  Speaker 1: No, But that's about it. Well, but then they want
• 40:21
  Speaker 1: to hold on to Logan for a few hours more,
• 40:24
  Speaker 1: and so they're like, let's go back to the call
• 40:26
  Speaker 1: to Sack because they're butting the walls up. And then
• 40:29
  Speaker 1: we have these this weird part where we're starting to
• 40:33
  Speaker 1: talk about IVF again. Yeah. I think it's because they're
• 40:37
  Speaker 1: talking about getting into the homes by Christmas and whether
• 40:40
  Speaker 1: they can do that. And then we kind of go
• 40:43
  Speaker 1: back to Cody asking Mary to make a decision about
• 40:47
  Speaker 1: IVF by the time that they're in their homes, and
• 40:51
  Speaker 1: so we're having this discussion again about whether she wants
• 40:53
  Speaker 1: to do it or not, and I'm just like, I'm
• 40:54
  Speaker 1: so over it.
• 40:55
  Speaker 2: I'm so tired, so tired of it, Like, what do
• 40:58
  Speaker 2: you expect from Mary? She doesn't want to have a.
• 41:00
  Speaker 1: And another flashback of Robin on her birthing bed. I
• 41:05
  Speaker 1: mean this with my whole Oh my god, we get it, Robin,
• 41:09
  Speaker 1: you're a saint, of course, cap in hand.
• 41:13
  Speaker 2: Yes, she came into this family. Yeah, I thought that
• 41:16
  Speaker 2: was weird that Cody brought that up again. And then
• 41:18
  Speaker 2: we're at the cul de Sac and then we're talking
• 41:19
  Speaker 2: about family mission statements. Because we want to be just
• 41:22
  Speaker 2: like the Dargers, right, because they're so much better than
• 41:24
  Speaker 2: us is basically the subtext there.
• 41:26
  Speaker 1: Yeah. I think that they met with the Dargers and
• 41:28
  Speaker 1: Cody started thinking of all the content that they could
• 41:31
  Speaker 1: create for the show by having a mission statement and
• 41:34
  Speaker 1: a time capsule and all of these things that they
• 41:37
  Speaker 1: could do, none of which seems very genuine.
• 41:40
  Speaker 2: No, not at all. And I think they end up
• 41:42
  Speaker 2: doing a mission statement later they do.
• 41:43
  Speaker 1: And they do a time capsule, and then they have
• 41:45
  Speaker 1: a recommitment ceremony or a commitment ceremony. They do all
• 41:48
  Speaker 1: of these things. They have all of these events in
• 41:51
  Speaker 1: order to create content. But are they happy underneath that?
• 41:54
  Speaker 1: I don't think so, because I think as soon as
• 41:56
  Speaker 1: they get into the Call to Sac, Cody starts staying
• 42:00
  Speaker 1: dominantly with Robin.
• 42:01
  Speaker 2: Oh yeah. And there was actually a clip going on
• 42:04
  Speaker 2: going around on Reddit recently from one of these seasons.
• 42:07
  Speaker 2: I think it's like six, seven, eight, something like that,
• 42:10
  Speaker 2: where Janelle in the Vegas homes is calling Cody out
• 42:14
  Speaker 2: for favoring Robin and she's like, I just hope you
• 42:16
  Speaker 2: don't leave us all behind, and he's like reassuring her
• 42:19
  Speaker 2: and holding her hand and.
• 42:19
  Speaker 1: He's like that, no, that's when Mary's going to get
• 42:21
  Speaker 1: a divorce from him and he's gonna make Robin the
• 42:24
  Speaker 1: legal wife. And Janelle is the one calling it out.
• 42:26
  Speaker 1: It's got the longest history with Mary, but it's Janelle
• 42:29
  Speaker 1: who's like, I'm worried about that. Yep, I don't know
• 42:31
  Speaker 1: if I can trust that and lo and behold you can't. Nope, yep.
• 42:35
  Speaker 2: So she called it out, yes, all these seasons ago.
• 42:37
  Speaker 2: But same with Christine, she's been calling it too well.
• 42:40
  Speaker 1: I did peep season six and it looks like we're
• 42:43
  Speaker 1: still in construction. We're waiting for Loans to come through.
• 42:46
  Speaker 1: Season six has like seventeen anisodes.
• 42:48
  Speaker 2: It's a really long season and I think my sister
• 42:50
  Speaker 2: Rives closet's in there somewhere I'm pretty sure that's when
• 42:53
  Speaker 2: the Shark Tank episode is, which would be so good.
• 42:56
  Speaker 1: I think we're also debating anti polygamists in season, so
• 43:00
  Speaker 1: there's a lot more common. Yeah, we're definitely gonna stay
• 43:03
  Speaker 1: with it. However, when we have a live or a
• 43:07
  Speaker 1: current season of Sister Wives, we don't do the rewind Nope,
• 43:11
  Speaker 1: So we will wait to get into season six until
• 43:13
  Speaker 1: after nineteen is complete.
• 43:15
  Speaker 2: Beatrice, Yes, is that it?
• 43:17
  Speaker 1: That's all? Well, if you have anything else that you
• 43:20
  Speaker 1: want to say about this season or any other thoughts
• 43:22
  Speaker 1: before we get up on Ada here.
• 43:24
  Speaker 2: No, I'm excited for season nineteen. I'm like, give it
• 43:27
  Speaker 2: to me, Yeah, give it to me. Good.
• 43:29
  Speaker 1: I'm worried about it a little bit.
• 43:31
  Speaker 2: It's gonna be the same before.
• 43:32
  Speaker 1: I'm concerned about it a little bit. Like I'm already
• 43:34
  Speaker 1: feeling some kind of way, Like I shouldn't feel this
• 43:37
  Speaker 1: way because I know they're not going to live up
• 43:39
  Speaker 1: to it, but I want them to honor Garrison so much.
• 43:42
  Speaker 1: I want them to kind of change the narrative around
• 43:45
  Speaker 1: the kids and how they've been treated, and like, I
• 43:48
  Speaker 1: don't know, I just want them to take a different
• 43:50
  Speaker 1: tone with this season and based on the thing that
• 43:53
  Speaker 1: they released two days ago on TLC, and based on
• 43:56
  Speaker 1: what I'm seeing in the trailers, I'm like, I don't
• 43:58
  Speaker 1: think they're gonna do that. No, I think I'm just
• 44:00
  Speaker 1: gonna hate Cody so much more. And i think I'm
• 44:03
  Speaker 1: gonna be seeing through Robin so much more. And I'm
• 44:06
  Speaker 1: I'm nervous about that. Yeah, at the same time, I'm
• 44:09
  Speaker 1: excited to get into it.
• 44:10
  Speaker 2: I mean, I'm gonna watch it, of course, period, That's.
• 44:13
  Speaker 1: What we do. That's our job.
• 44:14
  Speaker 2: Like, even though I'm gonna be enraged the entire time
• 44:16
  Speaker 2: and spewing hate on this podcast, I'm still gonna watch it.
• 44:20
  Speaker 1: Yea and enjoy it. Are they gonna get to Garrison
• 44:22
  Speaker 1: in season nineteen?
• 44:23
  Speaker 2: That's what I'm like wondering. I wonder if they're gonna
• 44:25
  Speaker 2: have like previous footage and then maybe with Garrison's passing,
• 44:29
  Speaker 2: maybe we'll go to semi current time. Maybe they'll kind
• 44:32
  Speaker 2: of fast forward it.
• 44:33
  Speaker 1: What we're seeing in the trailer or whatever that was
• 44:37
  Speaker 1: two days ago from TLC where we have all of
• 44:39
  Speaker 1: the adults sitting down and describing what their interpretation of
• 44:42
  Speaker 1: joy is, et cetera, et cetera. That is recent footage. Yeah,
• 44:46
  Speaker 1: that is Cody recent and when you see how he
• 44:50
  Speaker 1: looks and when you hear his answers, even after the
• 44:53
  Speaker 1: passing of Garrison, this is months after Garrison has passed,
• 44:57
  Speaker 1: he has not fucking.
• 44:58
  Speaker 2: Changed, not at all. Yeah.
• 45:00
  Speaker 1: How do you lose your child under a situation where
• 45:03
  Speaker 1: you have culpability and responsibility totally? Yeah, because you didn't
• 45:07
  Speaker 1: take care of that child. And plus he was talking
• 45:09
  Speaker 1: to texting to TLC on the night of his passing.
• 45:12
  Speaker 1: How does that happen? And you're still showing up to
• 45:15
  Speaker 1: this preseason looking like an angry, red pilled in cell
• 45:19
  Speaker 1: that's married.
• 45:20
  Speaker 2: I don't know, maybe because he's drinking and he's a
• 45:23
  Speaker 2: piece of shit, Like he's not getting actual therapy, he's
• 45:26
  Speaker 2: not doing any kind of work on himself, he's not
• 45:28
  Speaker 2: doing any amount of self reflection. I mean, can we
• 45:31
  Speaker 2: fucking expect him to mean? I mean I thought hop yeah,
• 45:34
  Speaker 2: we thought he would a little bit after such a
• 45:38
  Speaker 2: tragic event, You would hope that you would grow up
• 45:42
  Speaker 2: and get your head out of your ass, But no,
• 45:44
  Speaker 2: it's Cody fucking brown yeat.
• 45:46
  Speaker 1: You would think it would disrupt the pattern to some degree,
• 45:49
  Speaker 1: or it would bring the family together, or there would
• 45:51
  Speaker 1: be like authentic conversations about what people need and how
• 45:54
  Speaker 1: we can heal. But it feels like nothing has changed.
• 45:56
  Speaker 1: He's just gotten angrier. We're just gonna have another season
• 46:00
  Speaker 1: filled with a lot of the old footage of Cody
• 46:02
  Speaker 1: talking about how his wives ain't shit and they suck
• 46:04
  Speaker 1: and they're betraying him, and there's no self reflection, there's
• 46:07
  Speaker 1: no awareness. It's just going to be enraging for so
• 46:10
  Speaker 1: many of us. Yep, but that's how we came into
• 46:13
  Speaker 1: this journey. That's how we're gonna go out. We're going
• 46:15
  Speaker 1: to be screaming about Cody motherfucking Brown always.
• 46:18
  Speaker 2: Yep.
• 46:19
