2:32
Speaker 1: Matthews twenty four says, the show really gets to the
2:36
Speaker 1: raw things that we are going through. We wanted to

Speaker 1: show the different sides to the religion. Ads Matthews, who
2:42
Speaker 1: is now married with three kids to husband Jayce. She
2:44
Speaker 1: has two point four million ticure callers.
2:51
Speaker 2: Are you on TikTok? I'm not even on TikTok.
2:54
Speaker 1: Yeah, I was gonna say, I don't even talk about
2:56
Speaker 1: what our TikTok company?
2:57
Speaker 3: Well minor zero because I'm not on TikTok. I can't
3:03
Speaker 3: do TikTok. Oh, I have thousand Damn Teddy. They should
3:08
Speaker 3: be interviewing us, not the other way around.
3:11
Speaker 1: Thank god we have a lot of listeners on this podcast,
3:13
Speaker 1: because that's really where we thrive. Apparently, I think we
3:16
Speaker 1: may have aged out from the TikTok you know phenomenon.
3:21
Speaker 1: But let's bring the girls in and start grilling.
3:25
Speaker 4: Hello.
3:25
Speaker 1: I oh, of course we all are together, all right. Well,
3:31
Speaker 1: the first thing we need to go through is can
3:34
Speaker 1: you please tell us how mom Talk got started? And
3:38
Speaker 1: would you give all the credit to Taylor.
3:42
Speaker 5: Oh no, I would not give all the credit to Taylor. Yeah. No,
3:46
Speaker 5: So we all had most of us had social followings
3:49
Speaker 5: going into it. I think you had like two million
3:51
Speaker 5: followers on TikTok. I think I had like one point
3:53
Speaker 5: two million. And we kind of found each other through
3:56
Speaker 5: TikTok and social media, so I think we were all
3:58
Speaker 5: mutually following each other. And so then it was like, hey,
4:01
Speaker 5: like let's do some collaborations type thing, and then we
4:04
Speaker 5: all just decided to get together as moms and make
4:06
Speaker 5: videos together, which was really fun. It turned into like
4:09
Speaker 5: mom talk.
4:10
Speaker 1: Oh that's interesting. I thought you guys knew each other
4:13
Speaker 1: and then started mom Talk, but now you all found
4:16
Speaker 1: each other as influencers and that you guys also.
4:20
Speaker 3: So so are you geographically all close to each other
4:23
Speaker 3: in Utah? I used to live in Utah for five years,
4:25
Speaker 3: so I know the area.
4:27
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're always in like forty five minutes I would
4:30
Speaker 5: say each other. And we were also friends before mom
4:33
Speaker 5: Talk started, but like through social media. So we met
4:36
Speaker 5: like on social media in twenty twenty and became friends
4:38
Speaker 5: and then like we ended up doing mom talk together.
4:40
Speaker 1: And then when did mom talk kind of explode.
4:44
Speaker 4: After the soft Swing scandal, I would see.
4:47
Speaker 5: I mean I started blowing up beforehand, like giving millions
4:50
Speaker 5: of us because it was just kind of out there
4:51
Speaker 5: and a little controversial.
4:53
Speaker 4: And then once the scandal happened, like it was.
4:57
Speaker 5: Yeah, like all over.
4:59
Speaker 3: Was Taylor the for the scandal to get out there?
5:01
Speaker 3: I don't know a lot of the background. So was
5:04
Speaker 3: she the reason?
5:05
Speaker 2: Was it her?
5:06
Speaker 5: She? She was, yes, like she was the one who
5:10
Speaker 5: kind of exposed the swinging scandal. But before that, apparently
5:14
Speaker 5: there was rumors going on like all over online so
5:16
Speaker 5: that she was cheating, and she's like, that's actually not true,
5:19
Speaker 5: Like this is what was going on with everyone, Like
5:21
Speaker 5: if you're gonna expose me, I'm gonna expose everything kind
5:23
Speaker 5: of thing.
5:23
Speaker 2: So were you guys? Were you blindsided by that?
5:27
Speaker 5: Not really? I had a whole theory, like when we
5:30
Speaker 5: were all friends. It's like I feel like she might
5:32
Speaker 5: be a swinger, like her and a couple of other girls.
5:34
Speaker 5: I'm like, I have like some weird vibes, like I
5:36
Speaker 5: have a phone she might be a swinger. But it's like,
5:38
Speaker 5: don't tell anyone because it's kind of like a big accusation.
5:41
Speaker 5: So it's just a theory, and then when it came out,
5:43
Speaker 5: I was like, oh my gosh, that's right.
5:45
Speaker 1: So you guys are not soft swingers.
5:47
Speaker 5: No, they'll just have to wait and see.
5:49
Speaker 1: Okay, I mean these can you give us before we
5:56
Speaker 1: even continue on? Can we go through a couple of
5:59
Speaker 1: vocabulary wars that I've learned? Well, one, Emily is married
6:02
Speaker 1: to somebody that's LDS.
6:05
Speaker 2: But I'm not, she's not.
6:08
Speaker 1: But these are some things that I've learned. I want
6:10
Speaker 1: to know if they're true or false in the Mormon community. Okay,
6:15
Speaker 1: soaking and what's the definition?
6:17
Speaker 5: Oh? Soaking?
6:18
Speaker 1: Ill?
6:18
Speaker 5: We talked about this on the show to a whole
6:21
Speaker 5: in depth.
6:21
Speaker 6: I feel like there's so much with like the soft swinging,
6:24
Speaker 6: even behind the scenes, that no one knows even though
6:26
Speaker 6: it was all I mean, it was out there on
6:28
Speaker 6: every news article, but.
6:29
Speaker 5: There's just so much that even I was shocked to
6:32
Speaker 5: find out soaking is Mormon being from what I know
6:35
Speaker 5: that happened at BYU frequently because it's like there's this
6:39
Speaker 5: honor code and like you can't have sex before marriage,
6:41
Speaker 5: you can't do anything besides kissing before marriage, and like
6:45
Speaker 5: there's other rules obviously there and so I think soaking
6:47
Speaker 5: is a way for people to get around those rules,
6:50
Speaker 5: but in reality, it's not really getting around it. It's
6:53
Speaker 5: kind of like a big joke, but it also apparently
6:55
Speaker 5: it's true.
6:56
Speaker 3: But I wait, I need I need more details to
7:00
Speaker 3: a Mormon. But give me, like an example.
7:03
Speaker 5: You can give an example, Like, just give me an example.
7:06
Speaker 6: I feel like we're the worst people because we actually
7:08
Speaker 6: just have sex and then got Yeah.
7:10
Speaker 5: Well, okay. Soaking is like where a guy puts it
7:14
Speaker 5: in but doesn't do anything. It just like it.
7:18
Speaker 2: Marinates, so there's penetration, but no thrusting.
7:22
Speaker 1: So there's no penetration, there's just entrance and then it
7:26
Speaker 1: has to sit there still that just cannot move. Which
7:31
Speaker 1: this brings me to my next vocabulary word, which I
7:34
Speaker 1: could have wrong, but I think it's bed hopping.
7:37
Speaker 5: Docking.
7:38
Speaker 1: Oh yeah, where that somebody jumps on the bed.
7:41
Speaker 5: So then then that's shaking the bed.
7:43
Speaker 1: Let's get into shaking the bed and then docking.
7:46
Speaker 5: Okay, so shaking the bed is for people who are
7:48
Speaker 5: soaking and then they have a friend shake the bed.
7:51
Speaker 5: So the guy's not physically moving, but the bed is
7:54
Speaker 5: so that there's like movement.
7:56
Speaker 2: No, you know what I mean, this is crazy. Who
7:58
Speaker 2: comes up with this?
8:00
Speaker 4: I don't know.
8:00
Speaker 5: It's like.
8:03
Speaker 3: There's so many people involved in this situation.
8:06
Speaker 2: I can't even picture.
8:08
Speaker 5: Like how I'm comfortable. I be like, hey, like, can
8:10
Speaker 5: you come over for me? My friend is soak and
8:11
Speaker 5: just like shake the bed.
8:13
Speaker 1: I don't know.
8:14
Speaker 3: But my stepdaughter just graduated from b YU, so I
8:17
Speaker 3: feel like I need to need to ask her.
8:19
Speaker 2: I need to ask her some questions.
8:21
Speaker 5: There's probably more terms now oft YU. Now I'm out
8:23
Speaker 5: of the loop because I've graduated a while ago, but
8:25
Speaker 5: I bet there's more going on now, more terms, so
8:28
Speaker 5: would be all right?
8:29
Speaker 1: Now we need to know what docking is. Clearly, I
8:32
Speaker 1: actually don't know what that is.
8:33
Speaker 5: I thought that why did you expose them? I have
8:35
Speaker 5: to explain with that.
8:36
Speaker 1: Yeah, I see, y'all's game now between the two of you,
8:40
Speaker 1: like one of you is kind of playing the more
8:42
Speaker 1: demure like I'm not gonna know.
8:46
Speaker 5: I know, I just drop the bombs.
8:48
Speaker 1: I'm like, docky, that's so good. I'll shake the bed
8:51
Speaker 1: for you anytime, Emily.
8:54
Speaker 2: You just have to wake me up.
8:58
Speaker 5: Okay, Docking okay, so oh gosh, So how do I
9:02
Speaker 5: explain this? So docking is like, can't imagine like a
9:07
Speaker 5: hot dog bun and like a hot dog, right she's
9:10
Speaker 5: sitting on the top, but it's not going in. It's
9:12
Speaker 5: just like sitting on the top right there.
9:14
Speaker 3: Oh, like like when you dock your cell phone. I guess,
9:18
Speaker 3: so it's called docking.
9:20
Speaker 1: I mean, can it not be just called like dry.
9:22
Speaker 3: Humping, because that's moving when you move.
9:27
Speaker 5: Naked?
9:29
Speaker 1: Oh, so you're just resting.
9:31
Speaker 5: They're resting on the top kind of thing like inside
9:34
Speaker 5: a little bit, but not like in like not like penetrated.
9:39
Speaker 5: I don't know.
9:41
Speaker 1: I mean this is so do you have to use
9:42
Speaker 1: a condom for this type of.
9:43
Speaker 2: Thing or is it?
9:45
Speaker 5: I don't think that it's getting near the.
9:50
Speaker 1: Any other keywords that we're missing so far.
9:54
Speaker 5: Gazing you heard?
9:56
Speaker 1: No, what's that?
9:57
Speaker 2: It's exciting?
9:58
Speaker 5: I wish I was looking into each other eyes. Apparently.
10:01
Speaker 5: Gazing is like you go to a party and like
10:04
Speaker 5: people are all naked and you just like look at
10:07
Speaker 5: each other, but you can't touch, you can't do anything.
10:09
Speaker 5: It's just like you're gazing. That's weird. Yeah, these are
10:12
Speaker 5: all things I heard before BYU, but I never experienced
10:15
Speaker 5: any of these at BAU Thankfully, but I also like
10:18
Speaker 5: was having sex, so I mean like I was going
10:20
Speaker 5: all the way, I wasn't really trying to get around
10:21
Speaker 5: the loophole here.
10:22
Speaker 3: Do you think any of this stuff is more of
10:24
Speaker 3: like an urban legend or do you actually think it happens?
10:27
Speaker 5: No?
10:27
Speaker 2: I think no, it totally happens, really, Okay.
10:30
Speaker 5: Even if you see those people who like interview students
10:32
Speaker 5: at YU and stuff like what's the crazy thing you
10:34
Speaker 5: ever done? Like I shook to bed for someone like
10:36
Speaker 5: something like that, So it definitely still happens. I think
10:39
Speaker 5: it's because kids are horny, like they want to have sex,
10:42
Speaker 5: but they don't want to have like their repercussion, so
10:44
Speaker 5: they think that this is like better, and it's like
10:45
Speaker 5: they're not actually having sex, you know.
10:47
Speaker 3: So they're trying to come up with every possible way
10:51
Speaker 3: to actually have sex without having sex.
10:56
Speaker 1: Or so this is a disagreement that my husband and
10:59
Speaker 1: I have, like cold really because I don't consider oral
11:03
Speaker 1: sex sex. I'm like, I wouldn't put that in my
11:06
Speaker 1: number count. It's like for me, it's like sex is sex.
11:10
Speaker 1: He considers oral sex sex. What is is oral sex?
11:17
Speaker 1: Off limits? Too? And it okay, it's.
11:20
Speaker 5: Like anything past like making out is like, you can't
11:24
Speaker 5: do that?
11:26
Speaker 1: Do you guys? Drink?
11:27
Speaker 5: No? I mean I used to in college, have not recently.
11:31
Speaker 5: I had a little wild girl face in college, so
11:34
Speaker 5: I have done things, but not anymore.
11:38
Speaker 1: Okay.
11:39
Speaker 2: So are you two? Are you actual members of the
11:42
Speaker 2: Mormon Church? Both of you? I am so, Macy you're not.
11:47
Speaker 5: No, So I am. I'm an active member.
11:49
Speaker 2: Okay, So but Kayla's not. Okay.
11:52
Speaker 6: I haven't been practicing since I was like fifteen and
11:55
Speaker 6: I'm twenty four now.
11:56
Speaker 1: So how many girls on the show are active members?
12:02
Speaker 5: I think there's only two that aren't. So seven? Oh no,
12:04
Speaker 5: there's eight? Six?
12:07
Speaker 2: So what at six are I'm sorry? Six are active members?
12:10
Speaker 2: Six are? Okay?
12:12
Speaker 1: And there's eight of you guys on the show. Yeah,
12:15
Speaker 1: how many, allegedly, would you say soft swing?
12:19
Speaker 5: Only one? I think out of the eight, right that
12:22
Speaker 5: I know of, I mean less, there's more tea we
12:25
Speaker 5: don't know.
12:26
Speaker 1: I feel like I can see something in Mikhayla's eyes
12:29
Speaker 1: that she's not fully opening up about.
12:31
Speaker 5: Her assassin, Like she like will remember everything, which like
12:34
Speaker 5: keeps it in and then she's like drop it.
12:38
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah I do that too.
12:40
Speaker 1: I love it.
12:40
Speaker 2: I call myself a sniper where you just kind of love.
12:45
Speaker 5: Yeah, I love it.
12:48
Speaker 1: So another big other than the soft swinging. So you
12:52
Speaker 1: guys can easily find this. We talked about it on
12:54
Speaker 1: Reddit or on mom talk or anything, but this group
12:58
Speaker 1: of now we know influencers came friends. They all started
13:01
Speaker 1: hanging out. What I've learned about the soft swinging is
13:04
Speaker 1: it's fine as long as your partner knows it's happening.
13:08
Speaker 1: But once it's crossed the line that your partner doesn't
13:11
Speaker 1: know it's happening, that's where then it becomes the issue.
13:13
Speaker 1: Is that accurate?
13:15
Speaker 5: That's good.
13:16
Speaker 6: Maybe people have their own rules. I mean, I've never
13:19
Speaker 6: I don't know what the rules are of soft swinging. Yeah, no,
13:21
Speaker 6: I don't know either, I think. But basically what you
13:23
Speaker 6: said is similar to what Taylor told us.
13:25
Speaker 5: It was like it was kind of like if you
13:26
Speaker 5: were in agreement with your husband and you were like together,
13:28
Speaker 5: Like you couldn't go right off with the guy and
13:30
Speaker 5: you justuff alone in the room, but they were like
13:31
Speaker 5: all together and whatever that it was fine, but like
13:34
Speaker 5: you couldn't do stuff that your partner didn't know about.
13:36
Speaker 5: From what I understood, so.
13:38
Speaker 1: Taylor's gotten a lot of the press stuff, not only
13:41
Speaker 1: from the soft swinging, and then she got the divorce
13:44
Speaker 1: and now she's with the new guy, and then we
13:45
Speaker 1: saw that maybe she was I don't know if she
13:49
Speaker 1: was arrested or something along those lines, because there was
13:53
Speaker 1: some sort of disagreement in the home, some sort of
13:57
Speaker 1: domestic occurrence.
13:58
Speaker 2: Yeah, I think she was arrested.
14:01
Speaker 5: Yeah, it's on the show.
14:04
Speaker 6: Yeah, I think social media only taps into a little
14:06
Speaker 6: bit of that, and even like the news articles tap
14:08
Speaker 6: into a little bit of that.
14:09
Speaker 5: But then it kind of shows the other.
14:11
Speaker 6: Side of her dealing with it, our for our group
14:13
Speaker 6: kind of dealing with it, and yeah, just the more wrong.
14:17
Speaker 3: Wait, can I just ask a timeline question. Was she
14:19
Speaker 3: arrested while you were filming or are you just retroactively
14:23
Speaker 3: going back and talking about.
14:24
Speaker 5: It before we started filming?
14:28
Speaker 3: Okay, so then when you guys get to when you
14:30
Speaker 3: talk about that, you're talking about you're just going back
14:32
Speaker 3: and talking about it, right, Yeah, Okay, so it didn't
14:35
Speaker 3: happen in real time while you were filming.
14:38
Speaker 1: No, are you guys friends with her?
14:41
Speaker 5: Yeah, we're all friends, I would say, all the well,
14:45
Speaker 5: not everyone in the group is still friends.
14:46
Speaker 1: Are you friends with Whitney from Saul Lake.
14:49
Speaker 2: Is that what you're asking?
14:50
Speaker 1: No, but no, Whitney though she's the one who she
14:57
Speaker 1: had one of her children, was in the nick You,
14:59
Speaker 1: but she put did a TikTok Oh dance video.
15:03
Speaker 5: Yeah, I would say we're all friends.
15:05
Speaker 6: I think some of us are closer than others, and
15:07
Speaker 6: I think the show definitely tested a lot of.
15:09
Speaker 4: Our relationships and friendships, so some of that unfolds.
15:14
Speaker 5: Yeah, you'll have to wait and see how that one
15:16
Speaker 5: plays out. Because the friendship thing got sticky with all
15:18
Speaker 5: of us.
15:19
Speaker 3: I would say, do you think it's gonna get even
15:21
Speaker 3: stickier after the episode's air? Like, I don't know the format,
15:24
Speaker 3: but obviously with Housewives, we get to see things later
15:28
Speaker 3: that were filmed that we're not aware of. So you know,
15:31
Speaker 3: you you come out of filming Housewives and you're like, oh,
15:34
Speaker 3: we're all friends, and then you watch the episodes and
15:36
Speaker 3: you end up all hating each other. So is that
15:38
Speaker 3: kind of the premise of this.
15:40
Speaker 6: I think maybe we might have worked things out, and
15:42
Speaker 6: then maybe watching it again it'll kind of spark those
15:45
Speaker 6: same feelings. So I think we're all gonna go through
15:48
Speaker 6: it again for sure.
15:48
Speaker 5: Yeah, because I think you're seeing people in their personal interviews. Right,
15:51
Speaker 5: we'll see people in their personal interviews. Yeah, maybe you're
15:55
Speaker 5: gonna be like, wait, that's not what you said to me.
15:57
Speaker 5: I think that's where we might have some issues. Nice
16:00
Speaker 5: assume that there will be some issues once it comes out.
16:02
Speaker 6: I think it's hard to get eight women together not
16:05
Speaker 6: have a little bit of I mean when we had
16:07
Speaker 6: a lot of our overnights and birthday trips, I feel
16:10
Speaker 6: like I felt like I was with my sisters and
16:12
Speaker 6: I was arguing with my sisters again.
16:14
Speaker 5: And our periods were all sinking too, were like hungry
16:17
Speaker 5: together seeking period. It is going to be drama.
16:20
Speaker 1: It's like me and Emily, we go through perimenopause together. Also,
16:34
Speaker 1: something that happens on Housewives is you think like you're like, Wow,
16:37
Speaker 1: I'm really nailing it like this, people are going to
16:41
Speaker 1: love I never think that, but some people do.
16:44
Speaker 2: Some people do. Yes, I agree, people really.
16:48
Speaker 1: Think like, gosh, this is my season blah blah. If
16:51
Speaker 1: you were going to tell us who, like the crowd
16:54
Speaker 1: favorite is going to be from this season and who
16:57
Speaker 1: we're going to have the hardest time with, who would
16:59
Speaker 1: you say?
17:00
Speaker 5: I don't know if we can say.
17:01
Speaker 6: I think there's just something for everybody, and so I
17:04
Speaker 6: think it'll differ depending on the person. I think each
17:07
Speaker 6: person in the cash shared something super vulnerable, and so
17:10
Speaker 6: I think whoever is going to resonate with that, they're
17:12
Speaker 6: gonna resonate with that one person.
17:16
Speaker 4: I think all of us think we're the main character always.
17:19
Speaker 5: I think I think it's gonna be what she said,
17:22
Speaker 5: like whoever you're gonna relate to the most, because me
17:25
Speaker 5: all are going to be different, but we're also all
17:27
Speaker 5: very vulnerable and open. So I think like there's gonna
17:29
Speaker 5: probably be a villain, there's gonna be like someone who
17:31
Speaker 5: says whatever comes to their mind. It's gonna be a peacemaker.
17:33
Speaker 5: There's gonna be all of it. So I think it
17:35
Speaker 5: depends on what meshes the best with your personality to
17:37
Speaker 5: your like the best.
17:39
Speaker 1: And now I also need to know, like, are you
17:40
Speaker 1: guys already media trained or is this like just because
17:44
Speaker 1: you're part of LDS, like that you know how to
17:46
Speaker 1: answer all the questions without actually giving us the tea.
17:52
Speaker 5: I know you're dodging.
17:54
Speaker 1: I'm like, I feel like I and then why don't.
17:58
Speaker 5: I want to put any assumption because I like, we
18:00
Speaker 5: haven't seen it yet. I'm like, I don't know who'd
18:02
Speaker 5: be the favorite.
18:03
Speaker 6: I mean, like, of course we think we already have
18:05
Speaker 6: our own personal opinions, but we're just gonna hold on
18:08
Speaker 6: to them because I'm I was.
18:10
Speaker 3: Going to ask you that. So you haven't seen any
18:12
Speaker 3: of the episodes yet.
18:13
Speaker 2: They haven't.
18:14
Speaker 6: No, we've seen like bits and pieces of it, but
18:17
Speaker 6: not like full Okay, it's the plan to give you
18:20
Speaker 6: the episode before it airs so that you can see it, or.
18:22
Speaker 5: You don't know.
18:23
Speaker 4: I think we're just gonna watch it with the rest
18:25
Speaker 4: of the world and never.
18:26
Speaker 3: Yeah, okay, what do you think that there is some
18:30
Speaker 3: type of reunion that they'll film like they do with housewives,
18:33
Speaker 3: because obviously there's gonna be a bunch out there and
18:35
Speaker 3: you guys are all going to have what you're gonna
18:37
Speaker 3: want to, you know, have a rebuttal or explain something
18:40
Speaker 3: more So, are there any plans to bring you all
18:43
Speaker 3: back together and do that?
18:44
Speaker 5: I don't know. I think that would be fun, though
18:46
Speaker 5: I think it depends too on like if the viewers
18:48
Speaker 5: really want it, and you're like, hey, we want to
18:50
Speaker 5: rely want it, then we'll do it. I don't but
18:52
Speaker 5: it's not up to us. I think it's just kind
18:54
Speaker 5: of like how the show does. And like if there's
18:56
Speaker 5: if there's unanswered questions, maybe then they'll want to do one.
18:58
Speaker 5: But we don't know yet.
18:59
Speaker 1: If right, and everybody is currently married on the show,
19:04
Speaker 1: and you guys are all and everybody has kids.
19:08
Speaker 5: No, so Layla is not married and then anymore, she
19:11
Speaker 5: got divorced and then Taylor is dating Dakotas they're not
19:14
Speaker 5: like married yet, but they seem like they're married.
19:16
Speaker 6: But everyone has kids. Everyone has kids. There's blended families.
19:20
Speaker 6: There's people that have been married, got divorced and now
19:22
Speaker 6: they're married again and have step sibling or yeah, kids,
19:26
Speaker 6: there's actually a lot of that.
19:27
Speaker 5: I think, Yeah, are.
19:28
Speaker 1: We gonna like Dakota because it's been a little rough
19:30
Speaker 1: going on social media?
19:32
Speaker 4: You know you'll have to wait, Allen for sure.
19:38
Speaker 2: Wait, but you should ask that. Do you like Dakota?
19:43
Speaker 6: I like Tens on the day. I think it depends
19:46
Speaker 6: on the day for anyone. If I'm like me and
19:48
Speaker 6: him definitely have conflict on this show. I don't want
19:50
Speaker 6: to give anything away, but like, I think he's a
19:53
Speaker 6: nice person for sure. But yeah, we've definitely had our
19:56
Speaker 6: issues and you'll see that all are out.
19:58
Speaker 4: I think it.
19:58
Speaker 6: Really tests every relationship that you think it wouldn't when
20:02
Speaker 6: you're put in these situations.
20:04
Speaker 5: And so I think even if.
20:05
Speaker 4: You want in being like, oh yeah, I'm good at
20:06
Speaker 4: this person, it really just tests.
20:08
Speaker 5: The boundaries and test the water. So I think the
20:11
Speaker 5: show in general is almost like a social experiment because
20:13
Speaker 5: we all, most of us were friends going into it,
20:16
Speaker 5: and like we all had our trials to get like,
20:17
Speaker 5: even we who were like we're very very close, like
20:20
Speaker 5: had moments where we're like, what's going on, like even
20:22
Speaker 5: in our friendship, And I think a reality show kind
20:25
Speaker 5: of tests that because it's just crazy. It's emotionally draining too.
20:29
Speaker 5: It's a lot.
20:30
Speaker 1: And what are your thoughts on the book Bad Mormon.
20:34
Speaker 5: I haven't read it, so I don't know. I might
20:36
Speaker 5: have to add that to my list. I've never read
20:38
Speaker 5: it before. But I am a big book girl, an
20:40
Speaker 5: audible girl. I don't like to read. I'd like to listen,
20:43
Speaker 5: so might have to tex I haven't heard of that.
20:46
Speaker 3: Have you gotten any feedback as far as the church?
20:49
Speaker 3: Because I lived in Utah for five years, my husband
20:52
Speaker 3: is Mormon. I'm not but I do know that culturally
20:55
Speaker 3: the church is huge. I mean, it's just I felt
21:01
Speaker 3: when I lived there, I felt like I didn't really
21:02
Speaker 3: fit in because I was never LDS, so you know,
21:05
Speaker 3: I always felt a little displaced there. So my question
21:07
Speaker 3: would be, with these episodes coming out and the religion
21:11
Speaker 3: being such so central to all of this, do you
21:13
Speaker 3: guys worry about what the church thinks and church and
21:17
Speaker 3: it's import the show?
21:18
Speaker 5: And yeah, I think for sure.
21:20
Speaker 4: I think even just dropping the name.
21:22
Speaker 6: It was like a huge backlash already just having the
21:25
Speaker 6: word Mormon in there. And I think it's hard where
21:28
Speaker 6: we are if we go anywhere else, like Utah has
21:30
Speaker 6: such a strong community of Mormons. So I think it's
21:33
Speaker 6: just the community and the culture in Utah that's hard
21:35
Speaker 6: to navigate. And I feel like it's such a small
21:38
Speaker 6: bubble in Utah too, like everyone knows somebody, even.
21:42
Speaker 5: Driving home from her house.
21:43
Speaker 6: The other day, I was in an uber and the
21:45
Speaker 6: guy was like, oh, so what do you do? And
21:47
Speaker 6: I talked about being on a reality show. He's like, oh,
21:49
Speaker 6: it's not the new Secret Lives, warmon Lives and I
21:52
Speaker 6: was like, oh, actually it is.
21:53
Speaker 4: And so it's like and he just had so many
21:56
Speaker 4: questions to ask.
21:56
Speaker 5: I think it's just fascinating.
21:58
Speaker 4: But I definitely think people in Utah a little bit
22:00
Speaker 4: more offended by it. Maybe Yeah, I'm.
22:03
Speaker 5: Originally California too, and I would say the culture in
22:06
Speaker 5: each ove is a lot different than it is in California,
22:09
Speaker 5: And I do think I don't think the church will
22:12
Speaker 5: really do much.
22:13
Speaker 4: And I think as long as you know who you
22:15
Speaker 4: are and like what you're betraying, then there's nothing to
22:17
Speaker 4: worry about.
22:18
Speaker 5: Like I'm not worried about it as an active member
22:19
Speaker 5: because like I didn't do anything that I'm like worried
22:21
Speaker 5: about or like that.
22:23
Speaker 1: What do you have your undergarments on right now?
22:25
Speaker 5: Not right now?
22:26
Speaker 6: Uh oh we're business up here, but casual.
22:32
Speaker 5: It's too hot in my house right now to where
22:34
Speaker 5: I'm no, But I know I talked about that on
22:36
Speaker 5: my social medium, like why are we asking people like
22:39
Speaker 5: what underwear are we wearing? Like why do you care
22:40
Speaker 5: if I'm like wearing that? Like I think it's when
22:42
Speaker 5: it's personal for each member, but also like for some reason,
22:47
Speaker 5: it's like a culture thing where people are like, well,
22:48
Speaker 5: you're not doing this, you're not doing this, You're not
22:50
Speaker 5: doing this you're not Mormon, but like that's not true.
22:52
Speaker 5: So I'm really hoping the show can shed light on
22:54
Speaker 5: the fact that, like there we're all on different journeys
22:57
Speaker 5: with the Mormon Church, and we don't need to judge
23:00
Speaker 5: based on where they are, but anything, we should be
23:01
Speaker 5: accepting people because we're all sinners. That's why we go
23:03
Speaker 5: to church, right, is to you know, feel that community
23:06
Speaker 5: and get altered to Christ. Right, So why are we
23:08
Speaker 5: turning people away and saying we don't claim these people?
23:11
Speaker 5: So that's why I hope the show shit's like hones
23:13
Speaker 5: like you can still be Mormon, like you could come
23:14
Speaker 5: to church, you could do this, like you don't have
23:16
Speaker 5: to be perfect. And so that's kind of like what
23:18
Speaker 5: I'm hoping comes out of it.
23:19
Speaker 4: And I think a big bash backlash that we've gotten to.
23:23
Speaker 6: Is saying, oh, well, they don't look like typical Mormon wives,
23:26
Speaker 6: and I'm like, well, what does a typical Mormon wife look.
23:28
Speaker 3: I don't think that's true because I lived in Utah
23:31
Speaker 3: for five years and I was like, damn, all these
23:33
Speaker 3: women are attractive. I think I can I can spot
23:36
Speaker 3: a Mormon wife woman, and they all are attractive.
23:40
Speaker 2: They really are.
23:41
Speaker 1: Well put together, I guess, and.
23:43
Speaker 3: I read once that there's more like plastic surgery in
23:46
Speaker 3: Utah than than California, the second biggest. Like the women
23:51
Speaker 3: in Utah look good and they take care of themselves,
23:53
Speaker 3: So I think you all do look like Mormon wife.
23:56
Speaker 5: So you can spot a Mormon wife, like when I
23:59
Speaker 5: go back to California, like, oh that girls Mormon, tell
24:02
Speaker 5: I don't know what to die.
24:03
Speaker 2: I can't do.
24:04
Speaker 6: Mormons, but I think there's I think that's what was
24:06
Speaker 6: so fascinating about the show is just Utah women in general.
24:09
Speaker 5: People are so fascinated with because they're like, what do
24:11
Speaker 5: they look like this where are always put together and
24:13
Speaker 5: they're drinking soda at nine am?
24:15
Speaker 1: Like you know what, I like that drive through where
24:19
Speaker 1: you can only get sodas and you add a little splash.
24:22
Speaker 1: What's it called.
24:26
Speaker 2: Swag?
24:26
Speaker 1: I love my gosh. Well, thank you guys so much.
24:32
Speaker 1: We are so excited to watch and recap and then
24:35
Speaker 1: hopefully we can have you guys back on.
24:38
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, thank you guys. I appreciate it. Thank you
24:41
Speaker 2: so much. Okay, bye,
