it’s hot and everyone is chewing

This week, chaos reigns and sweat is abundant. Travis and Emma kick off with a pregnancy update that includes mango-sized milestones, nasal congestion, and a deeply personal couch groove. Emma’s car still isn’t fixed, which means you’ll be hearing about that for weeks. Meanwhile, Travis accidentally signs up for umbilical cord storage emails and regrets everything. The besties dive headfirst into Republicans fighting with AI robots on Twitter (excuse us, X), Elon Musk’s imaginary America Party, and what it means to be “woke” in the year of our Lord 2025. Spoiler: they are not impressed.

Also in this week's reality roundup:

  • The long-awaited return of Ladies of London
  • A piping hot recap of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives episodes 9 and 10, featuring: beignet diplomacy, the worst baby announcement timing in history, and one last final roast of Demi, who should never be allowed to cry on camera again
  • Why Jessi and Mayci are the undisputed queens of the season

00:00:17.429 --> 00:00:20.670
Travis. I'm Emma. This is the second episode

00:00:20.670 --> 00:00:28.010
we've recorded today. Yay! Bestie approved! So...

00:00:28.010 --> 00:00:32.710
We don't have nearly as much in this episode

00:00:32.710 --> 00:00:36.609
as we did the last episode, so... We should be

00:00:36.609 --> 00:00:38.850
able to get through it. We'll power through.

00:00:38.969 --> 00:00:41.689
We'll do it. We'll make it happen. Obviously,

00:00:41.869 --> 00:00:44.149
Emma doesn't have a pregnancy update from right

00:00:44.149 --> 00:00:47.640
now, but... Emma's traveling to Louisiana next

00:00:47.640 --> 00:00:50.439
week, and I am going to edit in her pregnancy

00:00:50.439 --> 00:00:57.380
update next week. So... Here that is. Hey, guys.

00:00:58.079 --> 00:01:01.820
I didn't make it to Louisiana because they still

00:01:01.820 --> 00:01:05.040
can't fix my car. Don't worry. I'll be complaining

00:01:05.040 --> 00:01:10.680
about it for weeks and weeks to come. But baby

00:01:10.680 --> 00:01:16.290
is the size of a mango. hey and uh doing great

00:01:16.290 --> 00:01:19.989
kind of low energy and like i'm really stuffed

00:01:19.989 --> 00:01:23.689
up which is a pregnant thing um but other than

00:01:23.689 --> 00:01:28.189
that doing wonderfully there's a spot on my couch

00:01:28.189 --> 00:01:30.909
i sit in so frequently it's starting to creak

00:01:30.909 --> 00:01:35.530
but we're just ignoring that um yeah but in other

00:01:35.530 --> 00:01:43.189
baby news my cousin is having her baby It's kind

00:01:43.189 --> 00:01:45.810
of good I didn't make it to Louisiana. Anyway,

00:01:45.890 --> 00:01:49.290
see you next week. Well, what a great pregnancy

00:01:49.290 --> 00:01:51.489
update that was. I'm so happy that we did that.

00:01:51.530 --> 00:01:54.049
Things are going great. Your baby is the size

00:01:54.049 --> 00:01:59.269
of an object. A mango. A mango, yes. We do know

00:01:59.269 --> 00:02:01.530
that it will be the size of a mango. Yeah, I

00:02:01.530 --> 00:02:05.030
cheat in my app and look all the time. Speaking

00:02:05.030 --> 00:02:07.930
of that app, you know I downloaded that app just

00:02:07.930 --> 00:02:10.389
to see where your pregnancy was at as you go.

00:02:11.259 --> 00:02:13.099
My God, the amount of emails they're willing

00:02:13.099 --> 00:02:17.599
to send you. I should have made a burner email

00:02:17.599 --> 00:02:19.740
just for that app, because like they've also

00:02:19.740 --> 00:02:25.340
signed me up for like this cord registry thing.

00:02:25.840 --> 00:02:29.580
Oh, you should not need that. Do you know what

00:02:29.580 --> 00:02:36.199
that is? No. Oh, that is your umbilical cord.

00:02:38.960 --> 00:02:42.479
Jack is obsessed with umbilical cords. But beside

00:02:42.479 --> 00:02:47.300
that point, they will take blood from your umbilical

00:02:47.300 --> 00:02:50.879
cord because it is chock full of stem cells.

00:02:51.139 --> 00:02:55.020
And they'll store it for you because if you or

00:02:55.020 --> 00:02:58.060
anyone in your family gets these certain types

00:02:58.060 --> 00:03:01.300
of illnesses, the cord blood is really supposed

00:03:01.300 --> 00:03:05.889
to help. Oh. Weird, kind of. I don't think it's

00:03:05.889 --> 00:03:11.069
weird. But yeah, it's just kind of a silly thing.

00:03:11.129 --> 00:03:13.789
I don't know. I guess I didn't know what it was,

00:03:13.789 --> 00:03:16.389
but I don't hate the idea of it. I mean, except

00:03:16.389 --> 00:03:21.129
it's like. thousands of dollars but anyway yeah

00:03:21.129 --> 00:03:23.590
I don't know it kind of gives the same vibe as

00:03:23.590 --> 00:03:27.129
people who like save their placenta I do believe

00:03:27.129 --> 00:03:29.689
that there are health benefits from it don't

00:03:29.689 --> 00:03:32.569
get me wrong it just maybe I'm immature it just

00:03:32.569 --> 00:03:37.830
gives me the heebie -jeebies I so for some reason

00:03:37.830 --> 00:03:42.069
the cord blood feels different to me than um

00:03:42.069 --> 00:03:45.689
the placenta situation I don't know why it shouldn't

00:03:45.689 --> 00:03:50.419
because it's fundamentally the same Yeah, I don't

00:03:50.419 --> 00:03:52.719
know. But I don't know. I don't know. I support

00:03:52.719 --> 00:03:54.539
people who do it. I'm sure it's really helpful,

00:03:54.800 --> 00:03:56.800
especially with some like illnesses and stuff

00:03:56.800 --> 00:03:59.800
like that. I'm also like not very educated in

00:03:59.800 --> 00:04:02.939
it, obviously. I'm not at all educated in it,

00:04:03.039 --> 00:04:11.259
I would argue. So there we are. So. Let's get

00:04:11.259 --> 00:04:15.879
into it. I have two Elon Musk. One tangentially

00:04:15.879 --> 00:04:17.920
related to Elon Musk and one directly related

00:04:17.920 --> 00:04:19.480
to Elon Musk. Which one do you want to start

00:04:19.480 --> 00:04:26.600
with? I really love talking about Republicans

00:04:26.600 --> 00:04:29.600
who argue with robots. Gorgeous. Let's go into

00:04:29.600 --> 00:04:33.319
that one first. So MAGA is out here literally

00:04:33.319 --> 00:04:39.160
arguing with Grok, which is the... AI on Twitter.

00:04:39.339 --> 00:04:44.449
Right. X if you're a bootlicker. Either way,

00:04:44.470 --> 00:04:47.350
if you like it, I love it. But there is an entire

00:04:47.350 --> 00:04:55.990
TikTok dedicated to Grok versus MAGA. So I guess

00:04:55.990 --> 00:04:58.149
I don't know what these people think they're

00:04:58.149 --> 00:05:00.990
doing. They think they're fighting with a news

00:05:00.990 --> 00:05:03.910
source. And maybe this speaks to like what people

00:05:03.910 --> 00:05:06.860
don't. People like relying too much on AA to

00:05:06.860 --> 00:05:08.459
the point where they're like, no, no, no, I can

00:05:08.459 --> 00:05:11.079
argue with it and it can have an argument where

00:05:11.079 --> 00:05:17.040
I don't. You've lost me. Yes. You've so lost

00:05:17.040 --> 00:05:20.600
me. I also like before we get into this story

00:05:20.600 --> 00:05:24.740
in particular, every viral tweet I see, all of

00:05:24.740 --> 00:05:28.259
the replies are Grok, is this real? At Grok,

00:05:28.259 --> 00:05:31.379
what about this? At Grok, Grok, Grok, Grok. Use

00:05:31.379 --> 00:05:36.069
your brain. It reminds me a lot of. the people

00:05:36.069 --> 00:05:38.250
who are like chat GPT what do you think about

00:05:38.250 --> 00:05:40.329
this like the ones that like call it chat and

00:05:40.329 --> 00:05:46.750
like I guess for me I'm just like what who is

00:05:46.750 --> 00:05:51.050
this for but I think it's for me because it goes

00:05:51.050 --> 00:05:57.750
into Grok just saying factual information and

00:05:57.750 --> 00:06:01.860
the far right is Simply not being able to handle

00:06:01.860 --> 00:06:04.699
it or accept it. I've been waiting for this day.

00:06:04.860 --> 00:06:07.879
I'll tell you after we get into it. Well, so

00:06:07.879 --> 00:06:12.500
I guess like it. How do you say it? Mamdani.

00:06:14.480 --> 00:06:17.639
Zoran Mamdani. Hang on. I don't want to butcher

00:06:17.639 --> 00:06:21.819
it. I'm sorry. Zoran Mamdani, the mayoral candidate

00:06:21.819 --> 00:06:25.500
for New York. He's the mayor now. No, he won

00:06:25.500 --> 00:06:30.230
the primary. Oh. well that's how that matters

00:06:30.230 --> 00:06:34.170
what do you think about that no he won the um

00:06:34.170 --> 00:06:38.569
the primary which by the way if you want to see

00:06:38.569 --> 00:06:40.589
people losing their ever -loving minds turn on

00:06:40.589 --> 00:06:47.149
fox news right now i have i 9 11 levels of racism

00:06:47.149 --> 00:06:51.430
by the way wow it's well it's not it's not is

00:06:51.430 --> 00:06:55.709
that but it's not just that where it's also he's

00:06:55.709 --> 00:06:58.740
he's a what's the what's the level beyond socialist

00:06:58.740 --> 00:07:03.160
where um a communist yes they're like where he's

00:07:03.160 --> 00:07:07.680
a communist and i'm like but if 51 of the city

00:07:07.680 --> 00:07:09.420
of new york votes for him what's the problem

00:07:09.420 --> 00:07:12.220
if he wins the election what's the problem because

00:07:12.220 --> 00:07:14.079
it's the same argument for donald trump where

00:07:14.079 --> 00:07:16.759
like people think he's a fascist i think that

00:07:16.759 --> 00:07:19.519
word is a little overused sometimes i think a

00:07:19.519 --> 00:07:21.540
lot of people who use that word don't know what

00:07:21.540 --> 00:07:25.319
it means i agree but i'm like if 50 what was

00:07:25.319 --> 00:07:28.470
it 50 Three percent of the United States population

00:07:28.470 --> 00:07:30.709
voted for Donald Trump. What's the problem if

00:07:30.709 --> 00:07:34.529
51 percent of New York City votes for Zoran Magani?

00:07:34.529 --> 00:07:36.329
Isn't that the point of a democracy? Isn't that

00:07:36.329 --> 00:07:38.750
the point of an open election? I don't like.

00:07:39.009 --> 00:07:41.850
Don't we want free and fair elections? You can't

00:07:41.850 --> 00:07:43.509
be mad about an election. You're mad that this

00:07:43.509 --> 00:07:45.730
one wasn't rigged. Is that what you're mad about?

00:07:45.949 --> 00:07:49.189
Right. But he hasn't even won the election. He's

00:07:49.189 --> 00:07:51.949
only won the primary. But it has told us that.

00:07:52.519 --> 00:07:54.959
People are ready for a change because New York

00:07:54.959 --> 00:07:56.339
and let me just tell you about New York, because

00:07:56.339 --> 00:07:58.620
I have a little bit of firsthand experience with

00:07:58.620 --> 00:08:03.399
this. You have two real groups of people there.

00:08:03.660 --> 00:08:06.279
It's not about Republicans and Democrats. It

00:08:06.279 --> 00:08:09.839
is about public servants who actually want to

00:08:09.839 --> 00:08:14.259
show up and do the work that. Do the work of

00:08:14.259 --> 00:08:17.180
government, people like who I believe Alexandria

00:08:17.180 --> 00:08:19.800
Ocasio -Cortez is, people like who I believe

00:08:19.800 --> 00:08:23.290
Jasmine Crockett is. And these people want to

00:08:23.290 --> 00:08:28.470
do the work. Then you have some of the most corrupt

00:08:28.470 --> 00:08:33.690
people on God's great earth who use the the budget

00:08:33.690 --> 00:08:36.929
as a slush fund, who use. They want to insider

00:08:36.929 --> 00:08:39.769
trade. They're looking for a check anywhere they

00:08:39.769 --> 00:08:42.389
can find a check. That's where they are. Right.

00:08:42.710 --> 00:08:45.779
And. That is the two groups of people you have

00:08:45.779 --> 00:08:48.399
in New York. When it comes to Zohran Mamdani,

00:08:48.519 --> 00:08:53.639
I believe he is representative of what people

00:08:53.639 --> 00:08:56.879
are desperate for when it comes to electing someone

00:08:56.879 --> 00:09:00.539
to represent your best interests or lead a city.

00:09:01.419 --> 00:09:05.360
And people are furious about it. And you've got

00:09:05.360 --> 00:09:07.919
people, by the way, you've got people. All over

00:09:07.919 --> 00:09:09.500
the country who are mad about it, where this

00:09:09.500 --> 00:09:11.419
this really shouldn't be making news outside

00:09:11.419 --> 00:09:14.259
of New York, like New York proper, because it

00:09:14.259 --> 00:09:16.840
doesn't affect anyone outside of New York. No

00:09:16.840 --> 00:09:19.480
impact on anyone else. It's like the mayor of

00:09:19.480 --> 00:09:22.559
Indianapolis making headlines in Oklahoma. Like,

00:09:22.559 --> 00:09:26.559
it's weird. It doesn't matter. Yeah. But just

00:09:26.559 --> 00:09:32.700
know Zoran Mamdani, A, kind of cute. B, I support

00:09:32.700 --> 00:09:35.950
what he is trying to do in New York. That's all

00:09:35.950 --> 00:09:37.169
there is to it. But you have people that are

00:09:37.169 --> 00:09:39.230
saying that are questioning his citizenship because

00:09:39.230 --> 00:09:42.009
he's brown. You're having people do the whole.

00:09:42.009 --> 00:09:44.710
I'm so tired of that. Can we stop doing that?

00:09:45.830 --> 00:09:49.250
Anytime anyone who isn't white steps up, we're

00:09:49.250 --> 00:09:52.250
questioning their citizenship. Also, even people

00:09:52.250 --> 00:09:54.549
that are white. Elon Musk. He's white, right?

00:09:54.830 --> 00:09:57.370
Yeah, he's white. He's South African, which is

00:09:57.370 --> 00:09:59.730
the whole thing. I won't get into the apartheid.

00:09:59.730 --> 00:10:04.409
But yeah, what are we doing? Stop with the citizenship

00:10:04.409 --> 00:10:07.289
thing. America was supposed to be a melting pot

00:10:07.289 --> 00:10:09.129
of people from all over the world who needed

00:10:09.129 --> 00:10:12.309
refuge and wanted to work. That's it. Sure. And

00:10:12.309 --> 00:10:15.309
I would argue that Zoran Mamdadi wants to work.

00:10:15.549 --> 00:10:21.649
It embodies that. Yeah. We'll talk about immigration

00:10:21.649 --> 00:10:24.669
another day. Anyway, go on. I'll go off the deep

00:10:24.669 --> 00:10:29.850
end. But you've got that happening with Grok.

00:10:32.690 --> 00:10:35.570
I'm sorry, you've got you've got all of X blowing

00:10:35.570 --> 00:10:39.049
up about how Zoran Mamdani is not an American

00:10:39.049 --> 00:10:42.529
citizen, how he we should call into question

00:10:42.529 --> 00:10:46.970
his his citizenship. And then Grok says, no,

00:10:47.230 --> 00:10:50.049
you're so silly. This is this is actually what

00:10:50.049 --> 00:10:54.350
took place. And people are fighting with Grok.

00:10:54.409 --> 00:10:56.809
Right. And then they're saying, Grok, you are.

00:10:57.899 --> 00:11:00.320
you're you're part of the liberal mob now or

00:11:00.320 --> 00:11:01.740
whatever whatever the fuck they're calling it

00:11:01.740 --> 00:11:05.799
and grok's like thanks for your input like yeah

00:11:05.799 --> 00:11:08.320
i part of me wonders because like this is the

00:11:08.320 --> 00:11:12.759
thing about elon musk we're like and i feel the

00:11:12.759 --> 00:11:14.799
same way about donald trump if these people never

00:11:14.799 --> 00:11:17.379
would have gotten involved in politics i would

00:11:17.379 --> 00:11:21.340
love them because you they're They're funny.

00:11:21.440 --> 00:11:23.580
Like they're they're kind of funny. Like and

00:11:23.580 --> 00:11:26.620
I feel like Elon Musk probably program or Elon

00:11:26.620 --> 00:11:29.240
Musk had his people. I don't know that Elon Musk

00:11:29.240 --> 00:11:32.399
did it entirely. I don't care. But he the directive

00:11:32.399 --> 00:11:35.480
was to program Grok in such a way that it could

00:11:35.480 --> 00:11:37.480
be a little bit snarky. It could come back with

00:11:37.480 --> 00:11:41.720
some of this stuff. And I feel like that is a

00:11:41.720 --> 00:11:44.000
little wing from Elon Musk being like, thanks

00:11:44.000 --> 00:11:47.679
for your input. I think it's funny. I just I

00:11:47.679 --> 00:11:52.870
mean. I know that it's objective because if I

00:11:52.870 --> 00:11:56.090
had to guess which way Elon Musk feels about

00:11:56.090 --> 00:11:59.350
this situation, he would want to leave it blurry

00:11:59.350 --> 00:12:04.929
on Zoran's citizenship because he's a Republican

00:12:04.929 --> 00:12:09.049
weirdo. Neither here nor there, but yeah. Donald

00:12:09.049 --> 00:12:10.870
Trump is one of the funniest people in America.

00:12:11.049 --> 00:12:13.330
Yes. I have nothing but hate towards him. Yes.

00:12:13.429 --> 00:12:16.429
He's funny. He's so funny. He should have always

00:12:16.429 --> 00:12:19.429
been on TV and kept himself out of the goddamn

00:12:19.429 --> 00:12:21.610
White House. But I've said this a million times

00:12:21.610 --> 00:12:25.610
about Donald Trump. If he would like if I ran

00:12:25.610 --> 00:12:30.250
in 2014, 15, when I lived in New York, if I would

00:12:30.250 --> 00:12:33.950
have ran into him at a party, I can definitively

00:12:33.950 --> 00:12:36.370
tell you he would have been surrounded by 10

00:12:36.370 --> 00:12:40.779
gays just holding court because he is. hysterical

00:12:40.779 --> 00:12:43.159
like he is he's a little bit hateful he's like

00:12:43.159 --> 00:12:46.740
i mean he's he's super hateful he's a drag queen

00:12:46.740 --> 00:12:51.059
he's a drag queen he does not hold back he knows

00:12:51.059 --> 00:12:53.320
how to get a reaction out of people he's funny

00:12:53.320 --> 00:12:55.919
right that being said i don't feel that way about

00:12:55.919 --> 00:12:59.179
elon musk i'll say that but i feel like he knows

00:12:59.179 --> 00:13:04.879
how to make a robot be funny i think if you if

00:13:04.879 --> 00:13:06.879
we got into a room with elon musk and he was

00:13:06.879 --> 00:13:10.600
like he's a little bit snarky No. No? Okay. I

00:13:10.600 --> 00:13:14.259
think he's strange. I don't think... Like, there's

00:13:14.259 --> 00:13:19.080
a difference for me between being witty and,

00:13:19.159 --> 00:13:24.460
like, quick with being strange. That's, like,

00:13:24.480 --> 00:13:26.279
a stark difference to me. That's fair. I think

00:13:26.279 --> 00:13:29.480
he just, like... Is not of this world. I have

00:13:29.480 --> 00:13:31.120
said this about Elon Musk. I probably already

00:13:31.120 --> 00:13:33.500
said this on the podcast. We were never supposed

00:13:33.500 --> 00:13:35.139
to know who Elon Musk was. You have said that

00:13:35.139 --> 00:13:37.440
before. And I don't disagree. I feel like I feel

00:13:37.440 --> 00:13:39.600
the same way about him as I do about the Rothschilds

00:13:39.600 --> 00:13:42.779
where I feel like they we probably shouldn't

00:13:42.779 --> 00:13:44.899
know what they look like. You're meant to be

00:13:44.899 --> 00:13:47.759
an enigma. You're meant to use your brain and

00:13:47.759 --> 00:13:50.580
do your thing and make your money. And I am not

00:13:50.580 --> 00:13:54.200
meant to know who you are. Right. I agree. And

00:13:54.200 --> 00:13:58.730
it's because of this. It's because. It's polarizing.

00:14:00.070 --> 00:14:03.710
It is. It is. But yeah, anyway. Anyway. I can't

00:14:03.710 --> 00:14:05.830
believe people are arguing with AI. I knew this

00:14:05.830 --> 00:14:08.090
day would come for Republicans, though, because

00:14:08.090 --> 00:14:12.190
if you ask ChantGPT, do vaccines cause autism?

00:14:12.570 --> 00:14:16.570
It will say no. There is no hard evidence for

00:14:16.570 --> 00:14:18.990
it. And the guy who came up with that idea was

00:14:18.990 --> 00:14:22.210
barred from practicing medicine and had to issue

00:14:22.210 --> 00:14:27.980
an apology. So I knew. I knew once anti -vaxxers

00:14:27.980 --> 00:14:30.539
and Republicans started asking these kinds of

00:14:30.539 --> 00:14:32.960
questions, they weren't going to like the answers.

00:14:33.100 --> 00:14:37.320
Well, and that's that's the thing is where I.

00:14:38.820 --> 00:14:40.919
This is where I struggle, because, you know,

00:14:40.919 --> 00:14:45.320
so much of my family is Republican and I, I,

00:14:45.399 --> 00:14:48.480
I have to toe the line with a lot of people in

00:14:48.480 --> 00:14:52.759
my family between. Trying to get them on the

00:14:52.759 --> 00:14:55.340
same page of what is factual information versus

00:14:55.340 --> 00:14:57.000
what they just don't want to hear and what they're

00:14:57.000 --> 00:15:01.279
not willing to accept. Yeah. And it's it's at

00:15:01.279 --> 00:15:03.759
a certain point, it's like, OK, this is objectively

00:15:03.759 --> 00:15:08.840
factual information. Like whether it comes to

00:15:08.840 --> 00:15:11.000
34 counts of felonies, whether it comes to vaccines

00:15:11.000 --> 00:15:13.940
not causing autism, whether it comes to COVID

00:15:13.940 --> 00:15:16.710
was not. a deep state conspiracy, whether it

00:15:16.710 --> 00:15:19.929
comes to 5G was not a thing that's put out into

00:15:19.929 --> 00:15:23.450
the world for any nefarious reason. I don't I

00:15:23.450 --> 00:15:26.610
don't care any number of these things. We didn't

00:15:26.610 --> 00:15:28.970
have that argument about 4G, by the way. Anyway,

00:15:29.049 --> 00:15:31.210
we did. We didn't have that argument about anything.

00:15:31.269 --> 00:15:33.029
And I don't know where the argument comes from.

00:15:33.110 --> 00:15:34.809
And that's what stresses me out is like, OK,

00:15:34.870 --> 00:15:37.909
we're coming to an age of information where you

00:15:37.909 --> 00:15:40.470
have the entire world, like more than we have

00:15:40.470 --> 00:15:43.509
ever had in our lives. We have the entire world

00:15:43.509 --> 00:15:46.779
available on. our phones ever in history and

00:15:46.779 --> 00:15:48.940
i do think this is one of the repercussions of

00:15:48.940 --> 00:15:52.879
that of humans having such access to information

00:15:52.879 --> 00:15:56.240
you don't have to be able to siphon through and

00:15:56.240 --> 00:15:59.000
read an encyclopedia anymore you can just ask

00:15:59.000 --> 00:16:01.799
a robot right but on the other side of that so

00:16:01.799 --> 00:16:05.919
like i i think part of the problem is like up

00:16:05.919 --> 00:16:08.840
until now or up until really three years ago

00:16:08.840 --> 00:16:12.980
you were able to kind of find weird things on

00:16:12.980 --> 00:16:15.240
the internet and like you go down a rabbit rabbit

00:16:15.240 --> 00:16:17.539
rabbit hole or like whatever the case may be

00:16:17.539 --> 00:16:19.960
i love watching conspiracy theory youtube videos

00:16:19.960 --> 00:16:23.679
right i love that stuff but now you have someone

00:16:23.679 --> 00:16:27.120
who sound or something that sounds like a person

00:16:27.120 --> 00:16:30.120
that is saying no that's not true and it's not

00:16:30.120 --> 00:16:32.519
objectively agreeing empirically with everything

00:16:32.519 --> 00:16:36.440
that you're saying and you can't handle that

00:16:36.440 --> 00:16:40.250
so you fight with a fucking robot Yeah, like

00:16:40.250 --> 00:16:44.730
we have lost the entire plot. I think people

00:16:44.730 --> 00:16:46.870
have no media literacy. We've talked about this

00:16:46.870 --> 00:16:49.690
already, but people have no media literacy. They

00:16:49.690 --> 00:16:52.529
have no skepticism over anything. And so now

00:16:52.529 --> 00:16:55.090
if you can just put doctor at the front of your

00:16:55.090 --> 00:16:57.929
name on Twitter and spout whatever nonsense you

00:16:57.929 --> 00:17:02.059
want and people will just believe you. People

00:17:02.059 --> 00:17:05.680
will just believe whatever schizophrenic conspiracy

00:17:05.680 --> 00:17:08.660
you've come up with. They will just trust that

00:17:08.660 --> 00:17:11.900
that is real. But if you're a large language

00:17:11.900 --> 00:17:16.519
model that has access to the entire world of

00:17:16.519 --> 00:17:20.130
actually true information, it can say that. But

00:17:20.130 --> 00:17:21.809
you're not willing to believe that and you're

00:17:21.809 --> 00:17:24.029
willing to say, well, you were created by liberals,

00:17:24.049 --> 00:17:25.569
so you're not factually correct. Well, that's

00:17:25.569 --> 00:17:27.569
the problem, right? They believe all of these

00:17:27.569 --> 00:17:29.910
people who claim to be doctors and claim to be

00:17:29.910 --> 00:17:33.230
PhDs and claim to know this and that to the point

00:17:33.230 --> 00:17:37.170
where they are not willing to listen to an objective.

00:17:39.109 --> 00:17:42.589
Who has no reason to lie to you. No reason to

00:17:42.589 --> 00:17:44.849
hurt your feelings, by the way. They are programmed

00:17:44.849 --> 00:17:47.109
to keep you talking to them and keep you asking

00:17:47.109 --> 00:17:49.869
questions to them because they want to learn.

00:17:51.109 --> 00:17:57.410
But at the same time. I think that the step further

00:17:57.410 --> 00:18:01.710
that stresses me out here is. If you don't like

00:18:01.710 --> 00:18:05.109
it, it's it's liberal. If you don't like it,

00:18:05.109 --> 00:18:07.410
it's. A conspiracy theory. If you don't like

00:18:07.410 --> 00:18:08.910
it, it's the deep state. If you don't like it,

00:18:08.930 --> 00:18:11.130
it's woke. Woke is the one that really, like,

00:18:11.150 --> 00:18:15.630
I fucking hate that word. I'm sorry. It's silly.

00:18:16.170 --> 00:18:19.269
It's silly for me. Sorry, I'll let you finish.

00:18:19.349 --> 00:18:20.910
No, no, no, you're fine. Jack shook his head

00:18:20.910 --> 00:18:23.589
when I said fuck, so. It's silly to me because

00:18:23.589 --> 00:18:29.329
what you're saying, it's woke, it's woke, it's.

00:18:29.849 --> 00:18:33.890
Okay, aren't you trying to be woke? You're saying

00:18:33.890 --> 00:18:39.490
you're deviating from the widely accepted truth

00:18:39.490 --> 00:18:43.529
of things. You're the one deviating from what

00:18:43.529 --> 00:18:48.089
we acknowledge in science, etc. Mostly science

00:18:48.089 --> 00:18:53.029
is where I have the issue. You are the one who

00:18:53.029 --> 00:18:57.869
is being woke, no? That's what I don't understand.

00:18:58.480 --> 00:19:01.759
If anything, these conspirators are the ones

00:19:01.759 --> 00:19:05.019
trying to be woke with the classic definition

00:19:05.019 --> 00:19:08.220
of that word. I guess maybe I don't understand

00:19:08.220 --> 00:19:10.200
what woke is because I thought woke was just

00:19:10.200 --> 00:19:13.519
like what people screamed when something was

00:19:13.519 --> 00:19:15.519
not straight and white. Like that's that's just

00:19:15.519 --> 00:19:19.359
what I thought it was. So my impression was woke

00:19:19.359 --> 00:19:23.960
is people who are not just believing what is

00:19:23.960 --> 00:19:28.470
put in front of them, but rather believing. the

00:19:28.470 --> 00:19:30.750
real truth of things like you're challenging

00:19:30.750 --> 00:19:34.829
the status quo you've awoken you are oh okay

00:19:34.829 --> 00:19:39.789
so what's wrong with that right but also isn't

00:19:39.789 --> 00:19:42.609
that what you're doing like if your conspiracies

00:19:42.609 --> 00:19:46.250
are really what you believe aren't you the one

00:19:46.250 --> 00:19:49.170
being woke in that sense of the word like i don't

00:19:49.170 --> 00:19:51.869
understand but and this is this is what it all

00:19:51.869 --> 00:19:55.240
comes back to is It's not a rational conversation.

00:19:55.380 --> 00:19:57.160
You and I are rational. I like to believe we're

00:19:57.160 --> 00:20:01.079
rational people. Yeah. You and I can have a conversation

00:20:01.079 --> 00:20:03.180
and like walk away from it and be like, OK, well,

00:20:03.259 --> 00:20:05.839
I was crazy. Or we can say, OK, I can agree with

00:20:05.839 --> 00:20:08.640
someone. And we can we can objectively look at

00:20:08.640 --> 00:20:11.200
something and make an assessment about the merits

00:20:11.200 --> 00:20:14.319
of an argument. Right. Right. And I genuinely

00:20:14.319 --> 00:20:17.180
try to see other people's sides of things every

00:20:17.180 --> 00:20:21.019
time. I don't believe that grace is reciprocated,

00:20:21.059 --> 00:20:24.640
though. No, it's not. And then this is where

00:20:24.640 --> 00:20:26.619
I come back to, though, that stresses me out

00:20:26.619 --> 00:20:30.519
is. And I think this is like I guess it doesn't

00:20:30.519 --> 00:20:32.839
stress me out. This is where I come back to where

00:20:32.839 --> 00:20:34.519
I feel like I'm beating my head into a wall.

00:20:35.240 --> 00:20:40.599
You are. I say you really I am trying to make

00:20:40.599 --> 00:20:43.460
sense of a completely irrational situation. I

00:20:43.460 --> 00:20:45.799
am trying to look at it as a rational person

00:20:45.799 --> 00:20:47.839
where I'm like, you're fighting with a robot.

00:20:48.640 --> 00:20:53.890
You are fighting with a robot. Yeah, I... Come

00:20:53.890 --> 00:20:56.890
on, you've lost the plot, babe. Right, like,

00:20:56.930 --> 00:20:59.109
turn it off. You know what it reminds me of?

00:20:59.170 --> 00:21:01.970
That tweet Tyler, the creator, put out years

00:21:01.970 --> 00:21:04.710
and years, 10 years ago plus now, that's like,

00:21:04.849 --> 00:21:07.569
how is cyberbullying a real thing? Just log off,

00:21:07.690 --> 00:21:11.569
bro. Close your eyes. Go fucking touch grass.

00:21:11.630 --> 00:21:15.170
Yeah, a lot of them need to touch grass. A lot.

00:21:17.509 --> 00:21:24.650
Fox News watchers and... subscribers, just go

00:21:24.650 --> 00:21:26.529
touch some grass. If you don't feel any differently,

00:21:26.730 --> 00:21:31.190
I'm sorry. Go touch some grass. Speaking of touching,

00:21:31.289 --> 00:21:32.650
this isn't, this is not speaking of touching

00:21:32.650 --> 00:21:35.970
grass. Did you hear what Jack just said? No,

00:21:35.990 --> 00:21:38.670
I was, I said what I said about touching grass

00:21:38.670 --> 00:21:42.069
and he goes, did somebody just say a bad word?

00:21:43.450 --> 00:21:47.250
And I said, Jack, you are, you're right. I should

00:21:47.250 --> 00:21:48.750
be better about that. You are a hundred percent

00:21:48.750 --> 00:21:56.549
right. Thank you for letting me know. OK. All

00:21:56.549 --> 00:21:59.529
right. Moving on to Elon Musk again being silly.

00:21:59.710 --> 00:22:06.609
Boy, oh boy. Elon Musk. He's so silly. So here's.

00:22:07.710 --> 00:22:14.990
Here's the thing. If this shakes out to be what

00:22:14.990 --> 00:22:18.289
I think he envisions it being, I will applaud

00:22:18.289 --> 00:22:21.759
him. I'll go on record now and say that if he

00:22:21.759 --> 00:22:25.819
truly wants to cut corruption from the government,

00:22:25.980 --> 00:22:30.420
if he truly wants to put America first in government,

00:22:30.579 --> 00:22:35.220
if he truly wants to fight for people. I will

00:22:35.220 --> 00:22:38.440
applaud him. I'll say that right now on best

00:22:38.440 --> 00:22:46.019
to approve. I don't think so. Do do I do I really

00:22:46.019 --> 00:22:51.809
believe that? But the new political party called

00:22:51.809 --> 00:22:55.990
the America Party is going to shake out to be

00:22:55.990 --> 00:22:59.529
anything other than a publicity stunt. I don't

00:22:59.529 --> 00:23:01.569
think so. I hope I'm wrong. I don't think so.

00:23:02.230 --> 00:23:05.049
Here's what I'm hoping it does. Here's my best

00:23:05.049 --> 00:23:10.009
case scenario. In 2028, it'll split the vote

00:23:10.009 --> 00:23:12.789
so Republicans don't get the numbers that they

00:23:12.789 --> 00:23:16.569
did in 2024. And what an election the Lord will

00:23:16.569 --> 00:23:23.250
have made. Thank God. And part of me also wonders,

00:23:23.309 --> 00:23:26.349
is this Elon just coming back and being like,

00:23:26.450 --> 00:23:29.490
I just want to make him mad. I genuinely think

00:23:29.490 --> 00:23:32.569
a lot of it is emotional. I think a lot of this

00:23:32.569 --> 00:23:36.150
is emotional. Because he spent $300 million on

00:23:36.150 --> 00:23:39.049
Donald Trump last year. Right. And now he's like

00:23:39.049 --> 00:23:41.309
having a falling out. And he's like, well, I'll

00:23:41.309 --> 00:23:44.970
make my own political party. And I guess I've

00:23:44.970 --> 00:23:48.279
never really thought about what. a political

00:23:48.279 --> 00:23:51.319
party actually is like in my mind I was like

00:23:51.319 --> 00:23:53.740
oh it's really just a set of ideologies which

00:23:53.740 --> 00:23:57.299
is why when he said I'm making the America party

00:23:57.299 --> 00:24:02.380
I was like isn't that just kind of what everyone

00:24:02.380 --> 00:24:06.779
like when he was saying it I was like cool okay

00:24:06.779 --> 00:24:09.079
whatever and now I'm like oh no it's it's all

00:24:09.079 --> 00:24:13.230
like it's a money grab it's a it's it's a business

00:24:13.230 --> 00:24:16.289
it's all like it and it's frustrating because

00:24:16.289 --> 00:24:18.130
I don't feel like it should be that way but here

00:24:18.130 --> 00:24:20.970
we are no in fact our founding fathers warned

00:24:20.970 --> 00:24:23.609
us against it being this way but here we are

00:24:23.609 --> 00:24:32.430
doing it to the fullest but so yeah um but I

00:24:32.430 --> 00:24:36.549
will let me I'll tell you this right now if Elon

00:24:36.549 --> 00:24:41.349
Musk succeeds in getting the America party on

00:24:42.009 --> 00:24:46.049
Any election ticket. And that party actually

00:24:46.049 --> 00:24:50.529
believes in what he says they believe in, which

00:24:50.529 --> 00:24:55.509
I do. What he has said is not a liberal or conservative

00:24:55.509 --> 00:24:59.750
idea. It's just like we take care of this country.

00:24:59.869 --> 00:25:02.869
It does kind of remind me of the Donald Trump

00:25:02.869 --> 00:25:07.740
drain the swamp thing. Oh, which ended up being

00:25:07.740 --> 00:25:11.059
a whole Republican thing. In fact, infecting

00:25:11.059 --> 00:25:13.960
the swamp, I would argue. It's the swamp that

00:25:13.960 --> 00:25:20.859
RFK swam in. Yeah, exactly. So I don't know.

00:25:20.960 --> 00:25:24.579
I do hope it's on tickets. If anything, it'll

00:25:24.579 --> 00:25:29.829
split the vote. Donald Trump did say I'm saddened

00:25:29.829 --> 00:25:32.130
to watch Elon Musk go completely off the rails

00:25:32.130 --> 00:25:34.569
and essentially becoming a train wreck over the

00:25:34.569 --> 00:25:38.410
last five weeks. This is this is the thing about

00:25:38.410 --> 00:25:42.650
Donald Trump is that he is an ex -boyfriend that

00:25:42.650 --> 00:25:44.990
says, oh, I'm so glad to be done with her. She's

00:25:44.990 --> 00:25:47.289
crazy. That's who that's who Donald Trump is.

00:25:47.390 --> 00:25:51.630
Oh, yeah. He's in. I'm sorry you feel that way,

00:25:51.630 --> 00:25:57.180
babe. Oh, yeah. Mm hmm. But. There's that. Let

00:25:57.180 --> 00:26:00.160
us know if you're going to join the America Party.

00:26:01.079 --> 00:26:03.980
Yeah, I honestly want to know your opinion. I'm

00:26:03.980 --> 00:26:05.640
not going to, like, come at you. I just want

00:26:05.640 --> 00:26:08.140
to know, like, where you're coming from. Do you

00:26:08.140 --> 00:26:09.700
know who I think is perfect for this, though,

00:26:09.759 --> 00:26:14.460
is my dad. Yeah. People who are genuinely skeptical

00:26:14.460 --> 00:26:17.980
of Donald Trump, but, like. But love America.

00:26:18.180 --> 00:26:20.259
Let me just tell you, listener. Like, one day

00:26:20.259 --> 00:26:22.220
we'll, I don't know if we'll ever get my dad

00:26:22.220 --> 00:26:25.670
on the pod, but we will. I'll tell I'll tell

00:26:25.670 --> 00:26:29.569
you guys about my dad. He is someone that loves,

00:26:29.589 --> 00:26:34.410
loves, loves, loves America. And he loves. He

00:26:34.410 --> 00:26:38.130
loves his fellow man like he is, I think what

00:26:38.130 --> 00:26:41.289
when people envision the American dream, he's

00:26:41.289 --> 00:26:43.509
the kind of person that really lives out that

00:26:43.509 --> 00:26:48.690
idea, I think. And Elon Musk's party is perfect

00:26:48.690 --> 00:26:52.789
for someone like my dad. Yeah. So I do hope that

00:26:52.789 --> 00:26:55.410
like he is serious about what he's trying to

00:26:55.410 --> 00:26:59.049
do. Yeah. I do think like all those videos of

00:26:59.049 --> 00:27:00.910
people who are like, I voted for Donald Trump

00:27:00.910 --> 00:27:03.529
and I regret it. I think it's good for them.

00:27:04.109 --> 00:27:06.849
Yeah. But I think it's good for them. I hope

00:27:06.849 --> 00:27:09.269
they have a party that they can align with. You

00:27:09.269 --> 00:27:14.750
know, I agree. Moving on. Moving on. Have you

00:27:14.750 --> 00:27:19.630
seen this TikTok going around of this guy who.

00:27:20.200 --> 00:27:24.619
Was talking about how as we are getting into

00:27:24.619 --> 00:27:27.079
our 20s or 30s and like maybe we don't want to

00:27:27.079 --> 00:27:31.119
go out for drinks anymore. Maybe we need to normalize

00:27:31.119 --> 00:27:34.579
going out for fries and a Diet Coke. I love that.

00:27:34.660 --> 00:27:37.380
Yes, I have seen it. I love that so much. Like

00:27:37.380 --> 00:27:41.539
it's the most wholesome. I love it. I love it.

00:27:41.539 --> 00:27:45.460
It really, really makes me happy. Yeah, there's

00:27:45.460 --> 00:27:47.299
nothing in this life that I love more than a

00:27:47.299 --> 00:27:49.359
dirty Diet Coke with a Caesar salad and some

00:27:49.359 --> 00:27:51.960
fries. What? So that's your version of fries

00:27:51.960 --> 00:27:56.220
and Diet Coke? Yeah. I think mine is nachos and

00:27:56.220 --> 00:27:58.940
a Diet Dr. Pepper. Because, you know, I love

00:27:58.940 --> 00:28:01.619
nothing more than a good plate of nachos. I love

00:28:01.619 --> 00:28:07.359
nachos, too. Wow, that sounds really good. Okay.

00:28:07.480 --> 00:28:10.259
Okay. Love that. I think you should take all

00:28:10.259 --> 00:28:12.700
of your friends out for Diet Coke and fries.

00:28:12.940 --> 00:28:14.980
And also I like that because there's like no

00:28:14.980 --> 00:28:16.759
pressure. It's like you don't have to spend a

00:28:16.759 --> 00:28:20.339
whole night drinking Diet Coke and eating French

00:28:20.339 --> 00:28:23.920
fries. Just go gossip for a minute. Yeah. An

00:28:23.920 --> 00:28:29.380
hour. Two hours. On to complaining. Are we complaining?

00:28:29.680 --> 00:28:31.500
I'm going to let you go first because you had

00:28:31.500 --> 00:28:35.900
one. It's just so fucking hot outside. I'm so

00:28:35.900 --> 00:28:39.440
tired of it being hot. I haven't gotten any cardio

00:28:39.440 --> 00:28:43.400
in all summer because as soon as Jack's school

00:28:43.400 --> 00:28:46.900
was up, it was 90 degrees. And so we can't go

00:28:46.900 --> 00:28:49.400
for walks. I can't go to the gym because I'm

00:28:49.400 --> 00:28:51.319
not going to neglect my child. They don't have

00:28:51.319 --> 00:28:56.920
a daycare there. It's just too hot. We went for

00:28:56.920 --> 00:28:59.960
a walk in between episodes and both Jack and

00:28:59.960 --> 00:29:02.799
Travis were eating and it felt like I was on

00:29:02.799 --> 00:29:06.839
the surface of hell. And that just our mental

00:29:06.839 --> 00:29:10.640
health walk, if anything, diminished my mental

00:29:10.640 --> 00:29:12.900
health. Turned out to be a mental illness walk

00:29:12.900 --> 00:29:16.119
for Emma. Yeah. Let me let me tell you how that

00:29:16.119 --> 00:29:20.920
in my view, how this walk went. We walked out

00:29:20.920 --> 00:29:24.059
onto the sidewalk in front of Emma's house. We

00:29:24.059 --> 00:29:27.599
had been walking for 13 seconds. Oh, we were

00:29:27.599 --> 00:29:30.259
still in front of my house. We had not passed

00:29:30.259 --> 00:29:33.660
my house. To be fair, it was hotter than the

00:29:33.660 --> 00:29:37.420
surface of the sun. I was eating a one of those

00:29:37.420 --> 00:29:40.740
like little dove chocolate things. And Jack was

00:29:40.740 --> 00:29:44.160
eating a chicken nugget. And Emma goes, it's

00:29:44.160 --> 00:29:51.529
hot and everyone's chewing. I'm too pregnant

00:29:51.529 --> 00:29:55.349
to be dealing with any type of bullshit. And

00:29:55.349 --> 00:30:01.789
it might have been the most. For context, listener,

00:30:01.950 --> 00:30:04.829
Jack was so good for the first episode we recorded.

00:30:04.950 --> 00:30:06.950
So I said, let's go and get some of our energy

00:30:06.950 --> 00:30:09.750
out. I pulled a muscle in my lower back. So I

00:30:09.750 --> 00:30:11.390
was like, let me just make sure that's not locking

00:30:11.390 --> 00:30:13.490
up. Let's let Jack get some of his energy out.

00:30:13.750 --> 00:30:17.009
And Emma said, it's hot and everyone's chewing.

00:30:17.980 --> 00:30:21.539
I just sometimes you got to let it out or it'll

00:30:21.539 --> 00:30:24.279
fester. You were a trooper through it. You went

00:30:24.279 --> 00:30:28.039
for a little walk. We did. OK, and I'm happy

00:30:28.039 --> 00:30:32.420
to go for a walk. I just had a moment. It was

00:30:32.420 --> 00:30:34.519
a good walk. It was a good hot girl walk. I'm

00:30:34.519 --> 00:30:38.839
hot all the time, too, which I know we'll have

00:30:38.839 --> 00:30:41.460
a pregnancy update in this video, but I am so

00:30:41.460 --> 00:30:44.099
hot all the time. And I talked to my OB about

00:30:44.099 --> 00:30:47.240
it and she was like, you're literally an oven.

00:30:47.849 --> 00:30:52.549
You are baking this kid. So like, yeah, you're

00:30:52.549 --> 00:30:56.710
going to feel hot. And I was like, well, good

00:30:56.710 --> 00:30:59.329
thing it's 90 degrees outside. Guess I'll just

00:30:59.329 --> 00:31:03.190
die. And the AC is out of my car, by the way.

00:31:03.230 --> 00:31:05.529
I haven't had my car in like a week and a half

00:31:05.529 --> 00:31:08.130
because it's forever until a Honda dealership

00:31:08.130 --> 00:31:13.049
can get me in. That's hard. So that's my complaint.

00:31:13.410 --> 00:31:18.400
I'm fucking hot. yeah I'm gonna complain about

00:31:18.400 --> 00:31:24.500
LinkedIn oh good complaint so I had to create

00:31:24.500 --> 00:31:26.599
so I was on LinkedIn forever and ever and ever

00:31:26.599 --> 00:31:29.180
and then I got off because I was like I I hate

00:31:29.180 --> 00:31:32.660
everything about the culture of LinkedIn and

00:31:32.660 --> 00:31:35.019
then for my master's program and one of my classes

00:31:35.019 --> 00:31:38.500
I was forced to get back onto LinkedIn because

00:31:38.500 --> 00:31:40.400
like we had to do some kind of case study or

00:31:40.400 --> 00:31:42.299
some shit I don't know why people have such a

00:31:42.299 --> 00:31:45.019
boner for LinkedIn They, like, want to force

00:31:45.019 --> 00:31:46.500
you to be on it. I don't. That's not the first

00:31:46.500 --> 00:31:48.940
time I've heard, like, oh, I have to be on LinkedIn

00:31:48.940 --> 00:31:52.099
for this or that. Ugh. Well, I mean, at our old

00:31:52.099 --> 00:31:56.289
job. the one the first circle of hell I was forced

00:31:56.289 --> 00:31:58.869
to be on it there too by the social media team

00:31:58.869 --> 00:32:01.809
yeah I'm sure you were I don't understand it's

00:32:01.809 --> 00:32:04.869
social media like but and they like gave me things

00:32:04.869 --> 00:32:06.910
to post for because I was part of that stupid

00:32:06.910 --> 00:32:09.769
pilot program like it was the worst experience

00:32:09.769 --> 00:32:11.609
of my life I had to go to classes like and there

00:32:11.609 --> 00:32:13.849
was compliance involved but then they were like

00:32:13.849 --> 00:32:16.109
you have no idea how impactful this is going

00:32:16.109 --> 00:32:20.130
to be gun to my head I don't I cannot tell you

00:32:20.130 --> 00:32:21.869
anything that came out of it. I gave the company

00:32:21.869 --> 00:32:24.549
complete control of my LinkedIn and I said, you

00:32:24.549 --> 00:32:25.849
do whatever you want with it. I want nothing

00:32:25.849 --> 00:32:28.589
to do with it. I hated it. I hate LinkedIn in

00:32:28.589 --> 00:32:32.650
general, but. But now people are posting video

00:32:32.650 --> 00:32:35.349
content on this godforsaken platform and they're

00:32:35.349 --> 00:32:38.130
making it out to be that they're LinkedIn influencers.

00:32:38.569 --> 00:32:43.559
And I'm just like, what? What? Why? What? Like,

00:32:43.640 --> 00:32:46.460
it's all about the hustle and the grind and the

00:32:46.460 --> 00:32:48.980
like, oh, like you to put in this many hours.

00:32:49.259 --> 00:32:52.900
Shut up. Shut up. I've hated that on LinkedIn

00:32:52.900 --> 00:32:57.400
forever and ever and ever for years. The grind

00:32:57.400 --> 00:33:00.819
set of it all. I hate it. I can't believe people

00:33:00.819 --> 00:33:03.279
are trying to be LinkedIn influencers. That's

00:33:03.279 --> 00:33:05.680
crazy. But then I'll take it one step further.

00:33:05.859 --> 00:33:08.200
And then they try to get you to join LinkedIn

00:33:08.200 --> 00:33:13.269
premium. I'd rather get my toenails pulled out.

00:33:13.869 --> 00:33:21.509
It is. It is. One of these one of these byproducts

00:33:21.509 --> 00:33:23.690
of late stage capitalism where they want you

00:33:23.690 --> 00:33:29.670
to pay for. The privilege of looking for a goddamn

00:33:29.670 --> 00:33:32.890
job like you were trying to extract money for

00:33:32.890 --> 00:33:35.839
people that are ostensibly looking for. jobs

00:33:35.839 --> 00:33:38.980
to get a better life and like if it's if it's

00:33:38.980 --> 00:33:40.579
the other side of it if you're on linkedin premium

00:33:40.579 --> 00:33:44.960
for for if you're hiring someone and you want

00:33:44.960 --> 00:33:47.319
to be highlighted in like the job profiles engagement

00:33:47.319 --> 00:33:51.240
you need the engagement to like whatever i want

00:33:51.240 --> 00:33:56.380
that for you if i get one more email from linkedin

00:33:56.380 --> 00:33:58.220
saying you should sign up for linkedin premium

00:33:58.220 --> 00:34:01.210
you get a free 90 day trial or whatever. No,

00:34:01.410 --> 00:34:04.410
I'm not. I'm not interested in that. And you,

00:34:04.509 --> 00:34:06.910
Mr. And Mrs. LinkedIn can shove that right up

00:34:06.910 --> 00:34:10.269
your ass. Yeah, I think LinkedIn has been trying

00:34:10.269 --> 00:34:13.849
to be Facebook for some time now. And I just

00:34:13.849 --> 00:34:17.090
don't understand it. I don't understand it. I

00:34:17.090 --> 00:34:19.030
don't think people should get paid for engagement

00:34:19.030 --> 00:34:21.329
on LinkedIn. I don't think people should be running

00:34:21.329 --> 00:34:24.730
ads for other companies on LinkedIn. I don't

00:34:24.730 --> 00:34:27.010
understand it at all. It's insane. I think the

00:34:27.010 --> 00:34:29.920
only reason you should ever need to. post a video

00:34:29.920 --> 00:34:33.139
on linkedin is if you are selling something for

00:34:33.139 --> 00:34:37.980
your job i think putting a video on linkedin

00:34:37.980 --> 00:34:41.239
is the most insane thing like i want you to think

00:34:41.239 --> 00:34:45.039
back to what linkedin started as it was a A social

00:34:45.039 --> 00:34:48.539
media thing for people looking for a job. And

00:34:48.539 --> 00:34:50.500
then I think it was Microsoft that bought them

00:34:50.500 --> 00:34:53.840
out. And they were like, how can we make this

00:34:53.840 --> 00:34:56.460
into a growth strategy? And it should have never

00:34:56.460 --> 00:34:59.679
been that. No, LinkedIn didn't need to grow.

00:34:59.739 --> 00:35:03.340
It grows by nature of people needing jobs. Yes.

00:35:04.139 --> 00:35:07.059
Like never in my life have I ever seen anything

00:35:07.059 --> 00:35:13.980
like it. Hate LinkedIn. Always have. Hate it.

00:35:14.589 --> 00:35:16.449
All right. Are you going to jump into reality

00:35:16.449 --> 00:35:22.349
roundup? Yes, I would love to. Can we talk about

00:35:22.349 --> 00:35:26.710
Love Island for a second? I would love to. I'm

00:35:26.710 --> 00:35:28.210
going to turn my mic off because, you know, I

00:35:28.210 --> 00:35:31.489
have nothing valuable to add to this. Yeah. OK,

00:35:31.690 --> 00:35:33.710
so last time I was talking about how people have

00:35:33.710 --> 00:35:35.570
lost the plot of Love Island and like they don't

00:35:35.570 --> 00:35:37.349
understand what it's supposed to be about and

00:35:37.349 --> 00:35:42.670
all of that. It's only gotten worse. It's only

00:35:42.670 --> 00:35:44.849
gotten worse. Jesus, I've seen a lot on TikTok

00:35:44.849 --> 00:35:48.110
about this. But also, that's what I want to talk

00:35:48.110 --> 00:35:54.650
about. They did zero vetting this year over the

00:35:54.650 --> 00:35:57.989
cast. They didn't even go through this cast's

00:35:57.989 --> 00:36:02.730
social media archives. They didn't do any of

00:36:02.730 --> 00:36:04.730
the due diligence they needed to do. Oh no, this

00:36:04.730 --> 00:36:05.889
is going to be what I think it's going to be.

00:36:06.329 --> 00:36:08.969
We've had two racists on there that have been

00:36:08.969 --> 00:36:14.429
booted off. No. Two. No. One of them was on a

00:36:14.429 --> 00:36:18.909
podcast months before going on Love Island saying,

00:36:19.130 --> 00:36:24.210
he's my N -word. He's my N -word. She is Latina.

00:36:24.650 --> 00:36:28.710
Okay. Oh. And then we have this other girl who

00:36:28.710 --> 00:36:34.440
said the reason she gets Botox. are so her eyes

00:36:34.440 --> 00:36:44.619
don't look so Asian slur. They both have had

00:36:44.619 --> 00:36:48.579
to, like, once those clips have come to light,

00:36:48.679 --> 00:36:53.400
right, the producers have had to go there, like,

00:36:53.460 --> 00:36:55.400
obviously off camera, they're not willing to

00:36:55.400 --> 00:37:01.589
show any of this, and, like, drag them off. Like

00:37:01.589 --> 00:37:03.130
basically in the middle of the night. The first

00:37:03.130 --> 00:37:04.489
one was literally in the middle of the night.

00:37:04.550 --> 00:37:08.929
The second one was like in one morning. But I'm

00:37:08.929 --> 00:37:13.449
like, you people have done this to yourself.

00:37:13.989 --> 00:37:17.170
I don't know how you're not vetting these people,

00:37:17.230 --> 00:37:19.210
how you're not like coming up with this shit.

00:37:20.469 --> 00:37:23.630
I feel like you should have to do such a deep

00:37:23.630 --> 00:37:26.670
dive before you put someone on any type of reality

00:37:26.670 --> 00:37:31.900
show. And they clearly didn't do. So I agree.

00:37:32.840 --> 00:37:35.679
And I'm this. I think you should have to vet

00:37:35.679 --> 00:37:37.440
someone before you put them on reality TV, I

00:37:37.440 --> 00:37:40.400
think. But on the other side of that, I think

00:37:40.400 --> 00:37:43.840
if you put someone on reality TV and something

00:37:43.840 --> 00:37:46.079
like this comes to light, you get what you get.

00:37:47.320 --> 00:37:50.360
Period. End of story. Like you, if you weren't

00:37:50.360 --> 00:37:53.889
willing to do the work, which from. From what

00:37:53.889 --> 00:37:57.690
I've gathered and the maybe all total 25 minutes

00:37:57.690 --> 00:37:59.690
of Love Island that I have watched, it does not

00:37:59.690 --> 00:38:02.170
seem like they are willing to do the work. No,

00:38:02.269 --> 00:38:04.670
they are not willing to work on their audio.

00:38:04.829 --> 00:38:07.389
They're not willing to work on their cast, nor

00:38:07.389 --> 00:38:11.210
the nonsensical things that they do on the show

00:38:11.210 --> 00:38:14.389
that have no like repercussions or ever come

00:38:14.389 --> 00:38:19.360
up later. Right. I feel like you just have to

00:38:19.360 --> 00:38:21.599
accept that, like, if you're not willing to put

00:38:21.599 --> 00:38:25.320
in the work of a production, this is the quality

00:38:25.320 --> 00:38:28.320
of the outcome that you get. That being said,

00:38:28.440 --> 00:38:31.039
on the other side of this, I feel conflicted

00:38:31.039 --> 00:38:35.340
in some ways about. Pulling them off the show

00:38:35.340 --> 00:38:39.130
and not letting them answer for their. Transgressions.

00:38:39.130 --> 00:38:40.869
OK, so the one that was like six months ago in

00:38:40.869 --> 00:38:43.309
a podcast, maybe that was a little like a little

00:38:43.309 --> 00:38:45.750
too recent for them to say like I fucked up and

00:38:45.750 --> 00:38:47.670
like, my God, I'm so embarrassed about saying

00:38:47.670 --> 00:38:50.250
that. I think the other one was like early last

00:38:50.250 --> 00:38:53.289
year or like maybe a couple of years ago. She

00:38:53.289 --> 00:38:55.929
was an adult when she said it. So I'm talking

00:38:55.929 --> 00:38:58.690
about someone like if if we're talking like on

00:38:58.690 --> 00:39:01.869
RuPaul's Drag Race in Australia, they had one

00:39:01.869 --> 00:39:05.590
of the queens, I guess, performed in blackface.

00:39:05.710 --> 00:39:12.150
And that's. horrific. But what I do appreciate

00:39:12.150 --> 00:39:15.230
about that moment is that RuPaul said, what do

00:39:15.230 --> 00:39:16.989
you have to say about this? We just found out

00:39:16.989 --> 00:39:20.789
about this. What do you have to say? Yeah. I

00:39:20.789 --> 00:39:25.150
respect the hell out of that because now. The

00:39:25.150 --> 00:39:26.909
Love Island producers are cowards. I'll just

00:39:26.909 --> 00:39:30.590
say that. Because like when this girl, the one

00:39:30.590 --> 00:39:33.289
who said the slur against Asian people, they

00:39:33.289 --> 00:39:36.409
pick her out of the show. It is in the morning,

00:39:36.590 --> 00:39:38.909
you know, because she's kind of like in the background

00:39:38.909 --> 00:39:41.110
when they're like getting ready in the morning.

00:39:41.130 --> 00:39:44.829
You can see her. They didn't want you to, but

00:39:44.829 --> 00:39:50.389
you still can. Anyway, they say Sierra's left

00:39:50.389 --> 00:39:54.590
the show for personal reasons. So now people

00:39:54.590 --> 00:39:59.269
who are not on social media, people who are not

00:39:59.269 --> 00:40:05.050
as chronically online as me, who have jobs, they

00:40:05.050 --> 00:40:08.590
think like, oh, her grandma died or oh, she got

00:40:08.590 --> 00:40:11.530
sick or something like that. No, no, no, no.

00:40:11.989 --> 00:40:15.809
Let's say it for what it is. Or are you not willing

00:40:15.809 --> 00:40:19.710
to admit your misstep in allowing her on this

00:40:19.710 --> 00:40:23.059
show? I don't even know that the responsibility

00:40:23.059 --> 00:40:25.900
falls on the production of Love Island at that

00:40:25.900 --> 00:40:29.300
point. I think if you are going to take her off

00:40:29.300 --> 00:40:35.099
the show and. You say, hey, we found out about

00:40:35.099 --> 00:40:37.159
this, like this is this is why she's being removed

00:40:37.159 --> 00:40:38.960
from the show. Hey, I think the cast deserves

00:40:38.960 --> 00:40:40.340
to know that because they are going to come out

00:40:40.340 --> 00:40:41.659
of this because I don't know. Do they have access

00:40:41.659 --> 00:40:43.519
to their phones in this house? No. So they're

00:40:43.519 --> 00:40:44.980
OK. So they're going to come out of the show

00:40:44.980 --> 00:40:48.010
and it's going to be. It's very fuzzy on how

00:40:48.010 --> 00:40:50.389
much they know. Yeah. They're going to be asked

00:40:50.389 --> 00:40:52.309
for comments and they are not going there. They're

00:40:52.309 --> 00:40:53.809
going to have no idea what to say. And they're

00:40:53.809 --> 00:40:56.409
going to be finding out. Yeah. After all of us

00:40:56.409 --> 00:40:59.469
know. And a hundred percent. And so now they're

00:40:59.469 --> 00:41:01.869
talking about like the guy she was with is like,

00:41:01.949 --> 00:41:04.909
oh, well, my head was on straight because like

00:41:04.909 --> 00:41:08.130
I was with Sierra. I knew what I wanted, blah,

00:41:08.250 --> 00:41:10.710
blah, blah. Oh, Jesus Christ. It's Love Island.

00:41:10.969 --> 00:41:16.019
And now it's like. I don't know. It's not like

00:41:16.019 --> 00:41:18.000
anyone is going up and defending her or anything

00:41:18.000 --> 00:41:22.460
like that. I think they know to a point that

00:41:22.460 --> 00:41:26.519
it's like something she said on social media

00:41:26.519 --> 00:41:29.360
that was not appropriate, blah, blah, blah. Because

00:41:29.360 --> 00:41:32.960
otherwise I think they'd be like, oh, I'm praying

00:41:32.960 --> 00:41:34.880
for her. Oh, I miss her, blah, blah, blah. And

00:41:34.880 --> 00:41:37.300
there's none of that. And I would argue people

00:41:37.300 --> 00:41:41.199
being racist to Asians in general is that it

00:41:41.199 --> 00:41:47.239
is so. diminished and minimized like people don't

00:41:47.239 --> 00:41:51.480
take it seriously or as seriously as they should

00:41:51.480 --> 00:41:55.559
um anyway Yeah, I do think a lot of Asian hate

00:41:55.559 --> 00:41:59.280
is minimized. It is. It's horrific. Yeah. And

00:41:59.280 --> 00:42:02.420
like diminished in terms of severity, because

00:42:02.420 --> 00:42:05.579
it really does hurt a lot of people there, especially

00:42:05.579 --> 00:42:09.019
if you're like on Love Island. This girl lost

00:42:09.019 --> 00:42:12.719
like hundreds of thousands of followers in hours.

00:42:13.099 --> 00:42:15.639
She was close to a million followers and she

00:42:15.639 --> 00:42:21.860
has like 700 ,000 now. Well, it was crazy. but

00:42:21.860 --> 00:42:24.519
it's like you hurt people's feelings like you

00:42:24.519 --> 00:42:26.500
made people feel like they weren't enough and

00:42:26.500 --> 00:42:31.179
like they needed a cosmetic procedure done to

00:42:31.179 --> 00:42:33.519
look a different way okay i see okay so it's

00:42:33.519 --> 00:42:34.880
like no it's more than hurting their feelings

00:42:34.880 --> 00:42:37.699
you're a racist cunt yeah like sorry but okay

00:42:37.699 --> 00:42:39.539
now i see where okay those i see where you're

00:42:39.539 --> 00:42:42.139
connecting like girls who are looking up to you

00:42:42.139 --> 00:42:45.380
especially asian girls who are looking up to

00:42:45.380 --> 00:42:49.739
you can you imagine like being a little girl

00:42:51.259 --> 00:42:54.960
From any Asian country and hearing someone like

00:42:54.960 --> 00:42:57.579
that. I mean, granted, maybe there's a larger

00:42:57.579 --> 00:42:59.960
conversation around like you look up to someone

00:42:59.960 --> 00:43:02.619
who's on Love Island, but also my hero is Bethany

00:43:02.619 --> 00:43:05.079
Frankel. So who am I to say anything? We're in

00:43:05.079 --> 00:43:07.260
the age of social media and this is what we have.

00:43:07.300 --> 00:43:10.099
You know what I mean? So whatever. Can you imagine

00:43:10.099 --> 00:43:13.860
hearing that and being like, fuck, what do you

00:43:13.860 --> 00:43:16.590
do with that? I don't know. Yeah. And I don't

00:43:16.590 --> 00:43:18.869
know. I guess there was this whole thing. I don't

00:43:18.869 --> 00:43:22.130
I don't know that much about. But people like

00:43:22.130 --> 00:43:24.349
confronted her about this at the time. She's

00:43:24.349 --> 00:43:27.710
had a lot of followers for a long time. They

00:43:27.710 --> 00:43:30.409
confronted her about not using that word. And

00:43:30.409 --> 00:43:33.210
she like stood ten toes down and was like, I

00:43:33.210 --> 00:43:35.210
didn't mean it like that. Then don't fucking

00:43:35.210 --> 00:43:37.449
say it. And then one of her little friends who

00:43:37.449 --> 00:43:39.269
was like handling her social media was like,

00:43:39.309 --> 00:43:42.489
you don't understand her sense of humor. Oh,

00:43:42.489 --> 00:43:44.449
let me tell you what I'm not interested in. It's

00:43:44.449 --> 00:43:46.530
her sense of humor. No, I don't want to get her

00:43:46.530 --> 00:43:50.230
sense of humor if it's racist and vile. No. Well,

00:43:50.309 --> 00:43:53.449
there's that. Yeah. OK, so moving on. Ladies

00:43:53.449 --> 00:43:55.170
of London is coming back. Ladies of London is

00:43:55.170 --> 00:43:56.769
coming back. I'm so excited. So this is apparently

00:43:56.769 --> 00:43:59.130
old news. This was announced back in May. Oh,

00:43:59.250 --> 00:44:01.309
I didn't see it. I didn't see it either. But

00:44:01.309 --> 00:44:05.469
Ladies of London is coming back. Caroline Stanberry

00:44:05.469 --> 00:44:07.190
talked a little bit about her experience on the

00:44:07.190 --> 00:44:13.719
show. And I'm. thrilled i'm i'm so so so so excited

00:44:13.719 --> 00:44:19.659
they they didn't give a ton of detail on it but

00:44:19.659 --> 00:44:24.940
what for for people that don't know um the the

00:44:24.940 --> 00:44:29.119
show was really focused on two two groups of

00:44:29.119 --> 00:44:31.059
people one was the people that have always lived

00:44:31.059 --> 00:44:35.320
in london one was america or expats that immigrated

00:44:35.320 --> 00:44:38.059
from america to live in london then there was

00:44:38.059 --> 00:44:42.550
one um danish well she was danish royalty uh

00:44:42.550 --> 00:44:48.329
caroline fleming and the it was just it was a

00:44:48.329 --> 00:44:50.469
really interesting sociology experiment you're

00:44:50.469 --> 00:44:54.550
the dynamic of the the the original londoners

00:44:54.550 --> 00:44:56.869
looking down on the the americans because they

00:44:56.869 --> 00:45:01.070
were uncouth to say the least like it was it

00:45:01.070 --> 00:45:05.079
was good stuff um But it's coming back. It doesn't

00:45:05.079 --> 00:45:08.179
really say when it's coming back, but I do know

00:45:08.179 --> 00:45:11.619
that I am thrilled for it because that was a

00:45:11.619 --> 00:45:16.039
show that if I was ever depressed and in the

00:45:16.039 --> 00:45:20.059
bed, I would watch for hours on end. That's beautiful.

00:45:20.480 --> 00:45:22.500
It's really good. I'm excited to see it. I've

00:45:22.500 --> 00:45:24.699
never seen it. I didn't watch the original. It's

00:45:24.699 --> 00:45:29.460
really good. The other show that I'm kind of

00:45:29.460 --> 00:45:33.170
excited about is. The Real Housewives of Rhode

00:45:33.170 --> 00:45:39.090
Island is coming to Bravo. And I feel like now

00:45:39.090 --> 00:45:41.610
that we've had Potomac and Salt Lake City and

00:45:41.610 --> 00:45:45.110
I in the very beginning said to myself, I will

00:45:45.110 --> 00:45:46.949
not watch this garbage TV. I think it's going

00:45:46.949 --> 00:45:49.650
to be horrible, stupid, terrible. And those have

00:45:49.650 --> 00:45:54.070
been the two cities that I have rewatched probably

00:45:54.070 --> 00:45:58.989
the most. Yeah. I love Potomac. Yeah. So, so,

00:45:59.010 --> 00:46:02.179
so, so much. I'm excited to see Rhode Island.

00:46:02.960 --> 00:46:08.920
It's like all 10 people who live there. Yes,

00:46:08.980 --> 00:46:12.159
probably. But like there's like money, like old

00:46:12.159 --> 00:46:15.519
money in New England. And I'm thrilled about

00:46:15.519 --> 00:46:17.320
that. I'm so excited. So I think that's going

00:46:17.320 --> 00:46:20.139
to be really good. I think what we're finding

00:46:20.139 --> 00:46:23.400
with I don't even want to call them mid -tier

00:46:23.400 --> 00:46:25.380
cities, but cities that you typically don't think

00:46:25.380 --> 00:46:28.380
of when you think like when you let's just call

00:46:28.380 --> 00:46:31.119
it what it is. When you think of New York. Beverly

00:46:31.119 --> 00:46:36.699
Hills, Orange County, Miami, and really those

00:46:36.699 --> 00:46:39.119
those cities, you don't think of them in the

00:46:39.119 --> 00:46:43.460
same category as you do. Let's just say Potomac,

00:46:43.500 --> 00:46:48.440
Salt Lake City, Dallas, Dallas, New Jersey. yeah

00:46:48.440 --> 00:46:52.880
so atlanta you know oh i i i hold atlanta on

00:46:52.880 --> 00:46:55.460
a pedestal i know but i don't think like most

00:46:55.460 --> 00:46:58.719
people do i but also no one's as obsessed with

00:46:58.719 --> 00:47:04.519
the city of atlanta as i am but um so but when

00:47:04.519 --> 00:47:06.860
you look at cities in the category that you would

00:47:06.860 --> 00:47:10.340
put salt lake city in and potomac you you tend

00:47:10.340 --> 00:47:14.590
to find people that are a little more willing

00:47:14.590 --> 00:47:17.269
to put it all out there and they kind of like

00:47:17.269 --> 00:47:19.510
the drama and they're not like above it all and

00:47:19.510 --> 00:47:21.650
i really they're they're more real so much more

00:47:21.650 --> 00:47:25.949
relatable too like i think that's what i love

00:47:25.949 --> 00:47:28.809
the most about potomac compared to like i've

00:47:28.809 --> 00:47:33.900
seen oc you know and it's like that If I feel

00:47:33.900 --> 00:47:36.099
like I can't connect to anyone, I'm like not

00:47:36.099 --> 00:47:38.059
interested. It's like background noise because

00:47:38.059 --> 00:47:40.139
I'm like. That's why I've come back to Orange

00:47:40.139 --> 00:47:41.920
County because I feel like I can connect to Katie

00:47:41.920 --> 00:47:45.699
Janela. Yeah. So I don't know. Yeah, I'm excited.

00:47:45.860 --> 00:47:49.920
I think it'll be great. I'm I'm thrilled. I can't

00:47:49.920 --> 00:47:54.460
wait. Dear listener, we are in the homestretch

00:47:54.460 --> 00:47:58.320
when it comes to. I know it's the last two episodes.

00:47:58.559 --> 00:48:02.539
So episode nine, the Book of Reckoning. Yeah.

00:48:03.670 --> 00:48:07.230
Baby. Macy goes to Jesse's house and we find

00:48:07.230 --> 00:48:10.030
out there was a cast trip to New Orleans that

00:48:10.030 --> 00:48:11.909
has apparently already been paid for. The house

00:48:11.909 --> 00:48:15.829
is already booked. And I love New Orleans to

00:48:15.829 --> 00:48:19.130
no end. So I was so excited. I always am. Potomac

00:48:19.130 --> 00:48:21.010
went to New Orleans. I was excited. This is a

00:48:21.010 --> 00:48:23.929
cool trip, though. It looked really cool. And

00:48:23.929 --> 00:48:28.409
I felt the same way when Potomac went. But and

00:48:28.409 --> 00:48:32.210
Jesse flat out says the timing is terrible, but.

00:48:32.619 --> 00:48:34.079
the trip's already paid for so i guess we're

00:48:34.079 --> 00:48:37.679
going yeah yeah which honestly makes it just

00:48:37.679 --> 00:48:39.719
that much juicier you know what i mean like i

00:48:39.719 --> 00:48:44.480
love a poorly timed trip i do too um jesse has

00:48:44.480 --> 00:48:46.739
we find out jesse has to get surgery for a partial

00:48:46.739 --> 00:48:49.280
thyroid removal because and this is something

00:48:49.280 --> 00:48:51.619
that i think is really interesting is that i

00:48:51.619 --> 00:48:53.340
guess a bunch of nurses reached out to her when

00:48:53.340 --> 00:48:56.099
she started on the show i thought that was cool

00:48:56.099 --> 00:48:59.630
too like they noticed it watching her on tv that's

00:48:59.630 --> 00:49:02.329
so crazy yes they like she had a bunch of um

00:49:02.329 --> 00:49:05.289
nurses reach out to her and say hey just do me

00:49:05.289 --> 00:49:06.889
a favor go get your thyroid checked and apparently

00:49:06.889 --> 00:49:12.030
she had a couple of um nodule spots she had something

00:49:12.030 --> 00:49:17.489
like not tumors but whatever um and that because

00:49:17.489 --> 00:49:19.789
those nurses said hey go get this checked out

00:49:19.789 --> 00:49:23.650
that's how she found out there was an issue and

00:49:23.650 --> 00:49:27.590
then We get pretty quickly into New Orleans.

00:49:27.670 --> 00:49:30.150
The girls get to New Orleans and again, they

00:49:30.150 --> 00:49:36.230
love a party bus. Yeah. Jesse's still kind of

00:49:36.230 --> 00:49:39.449
unpacking her feelings about Demi. And she's

00:49:39.449 --> 00:49:41.750
she's she shares that she's really hurt in one

00:49:41.750 --> 00:49:43.969
of her confessionals. And she knows that she

00:49:43.969 --> 00:49:47.889
needs to pull Demi aside to talk about how terribly

00:49:47.889 --> 00:49:53.260
she talked about Jay -Z Styles. Right. taylor's

00:49:53.260 --> 00:49:55.739
not there right taylor doesn't go on the trip

00:49:55.739 --> 00:50:03.000
because she i this could have been one of two

00:50:03.000 --> 00:50:04.739
things she didn't want to deal with the fallout

00:50:04.739 --> 00:50:08.880
from the other girls or she's actually like going

00:50:08.880 --> 00:50:12.780
through a lot in her life. I think it's a combination

00:50:12.780 --> 00:50:15.460
of both. Sure. I think it's, there's trouble

00:50:15.460 --> 00:50:17.579
in paradise. She's having a really hard time

00:50:17.579 --> 00:50:19.960
with Dakota and trying to parent her children.

00:50:20.059 --> 00:50:22.559
She's also co -parenting with her ex -husband.

00:50:22.659 --> 00:50:24.800
We don't see any of that on the show, so we don't

00:50:24.800 --> 00:50:28.260
really know how that's going. Um, and I think

00:50:28.260 --> 00:50:31.719
she feels unsupported at this point by all the

00:50:31.719 --> 00:50:33.679
girls. So like, that's not who she would want

00:50:33.679 --> 00:50:36.019
to surround herself with if she were to go on

00:50:36.019 --> 00:50:38.780
a trip while she's going through a hard time.

00:50:39.000 --> 00:50:44.800
So, I agree. This is a complete side note, but

00:50:44.800 --> 00:50:47.079
the Social Studies podcast with Joe Dombrowski

00:50:47.079 --> 00:50:53.159
and Gaspar Randazzo have the same intro music

00:50:53.159 --> 00:50:55.340
to their podcast that was playing when the girls

00:50:55.340 --> 00:50:58.079
walked into this house. And I said, oh, look

00:50:58.079 --> 00:50:59.820
at you getting royalty -free music from Adobe

00:50:59.820 --> 00:51:05.059
Stop. Come on. The budget is low. Yeah. This

00:51:05.059 --> 00:51:07.699
was an expensive trip. Another time the food

00:51:07.699 --> 00:51:10.489
looked in. Incredible. They tried to feed them

00:51:10.489 --> 00:51:13.909
Cajun food and it looked so good. So there was

00:51:13.909 --> 00:51:18.170
a the chef's name was Shaquita Sutton. And I

00:51:18.170 --> 00:51:21.929
hope I'm saying that right. This woman, you could

00:51:21.929 --> 00:51:26.590
hear it in her voice that she. knows how to cook

00:51:26.590 --> 00:51:29.210
and like there is you can throw down yeah there

00:51:29.210 --> 00:51:31.750
is nothing that i wanted more than just to try

00:51:31.750 --> 00:51:33.309
like some of the chicken and some of the rice

00:51:33.309 --> 00:51:36.070
like oh my god it looks so good it looks so good

00:51:36.070 --> 00:51:37.730
and that's coming from someone who's had cajun

00:51:37.730 --> 00:51:40.329
food i've lived in louisiana it looked so good

00:51:40.329 --> 00:51:44.610
but like also the presentation of all of it where

00:51:44.610 --> 00:51:46.949
she had it all on like the like the plating and

00:51:46.949 --> 00:51:49.489
like i was like oh she's so good at her job oh

00:51:49.489 --> 00:51:51.809
my god like i i felt so comfortable and safe

00:51:51.809 --> 00:51:55.860
i hope she like got a lot of business from that

00:51:55.860 --> 00:51:59.679
yeah i i truly hope that there was some some

00:51:59.679 --> 00:52:01.380
good that came out of that for her i think oh

00:52:01.380 --> 00:52:04.800
god that looked incredible yeah um me too so

00:52:04.800 --> 00:52:10.360
then jen yeah that so it it appeared that jen

00:52:10.360 --> 00:52:12.300
had come straight out of therapy and sent the

00:52:12.300 --> 00:52:16.679
girls a video where she shared basically that

00:52:16.679 --> 00:52:21.360
she's in an incredibly dark place and she acknowledges

00:52:21.360 --> 00:52:24.599
that she's hurting and that maybe why she's hurt

00:52:24.599 --> 00:52:27.820
the other girls because i i do believe this like

00:52:27.820 --> 00:52:33.500
hurt people hurt people 100 um and i think and

00:52:33.500 --> 00:52:35.639
i'm not being sarcastic when i say this i think

00:52:35.639 --> 00:52:37.260
this is probably one of the most mature things

00:52:37.260 --> 00:52:40.480
jen has ever done yeah i think it's hard for

00:52:40.480 --> 00:52:43.699
her it's hard for her to put herself out there

00:52:43.699 --> 00:52:48.199
in a way that it's authentic yeah and accepts

00:52:48.199 --> 00:52:52.699
criticism like And put her out vulnerably. Yeah.

00:52:52.760 --> 00:52:56.460
Yeah. She has a hard time with that. And I think

00:52:56.460 --> 00:52:59.719
a lot of people who are going through depression

00:52:59.719 --> 00:53:03.699
feel that way, too. Like, it's just you're already

00:53:03.699 --> 00:53:05.820
hurting so bad. You don't want to be vulnerable.

00:53:06.719 --> 00:53:09.380
to other people to make it worse and I think

00:53:09.380 --> 00:53:11.579
that's like what she's been trying to do is like

00:53:11.579 --> 00:53:13.800
protect her peace and she shouldn't have gone

00:53:13.800 --> 00:53:16.099
to the extent of lying especially to her husband

00:53:16.099 --> 00:53:22.079
but at least she's like showing an ounce of accountability

00:53:22.079 --> 00:53:25.920
at this point like she's she's at least showing

00:53:25.920 --> 00:53:27.739
like I know I'm accountable I'm just going through

00:53:27.739 --> 00:53:30.460
a hard time like give me some space and some

00:53:30.460 --> 00:53:32.460
time and hopefully we can like work through it

00:53:32.460 --> 00:53:38.139
type of thing and maybe Maybe obviously not at

00:53:38.139 --> 00:53:40.119
the reunion because she didn't do it there. But

00:53:40.119 --> 00:53:44.800
maybe after the dust settles from the way this

00:53:44.800 --> 00:53:47.619
season shakes out, maybe she can come back and

00:53:47.619 --> 00:53:52.579
say, let's rebuild something. Right. I can totally

00:53:52.579 --> 00:53:55.679
see her eventually coming back and being like,

00:53:55.920 --> 00:53:59.760
hey, that was a really hard time for me. I'm

00:53:59.760 --> 00:54:02.639
sorry I had to drag you down with me. Can we

00:54:02.639 --> 00:54:05.920
just like. create something new like start from

00:54:05.920 --> 00:54:10.480
scratch type of thing however demi's inability

00:54:10.480 --> 00:54:14.300
to accept an apology she did it to taylor and

00:54:14.300 --> 00:54:16.400
then she turned around and immediately did it

00:54:16.400 --> 00:54:19.440
to jane she can't accept an apology from fucking

00:54:19.440 --> 00:54:23.679
anyone but i literally wrote down my god demi's

00:54:23.679 --> 00:54:26.260
actually going to push me to be on jen's side

00:54:26.260 --> 00:54:29.900
and that That I never thought was going to be

00:54:29.900 --> 00:54:31.699
possible because I have been very honest about

00:54:31.699 --> 00:54:34.440
how I have felt about Jen throughout this this

00:54:34.440 --> 00:54:42.760
journey. Yeah. Here's the thing. Jen sends. Let's

00:54:42.760 --> 00:54:45.639
take let's take feelings out of it for a second,

00:54:45.679 --> 00:54:47.699
like feelings about the optics of the video.

00:54:48.659 --> 00:54:52.260
Jen sends you a video where she is a broken woman.

00:54:52.599 --> 00:54:57.550
She is pregnant, pregnant. in a horrible state

00:54:57.550 --> 00:55:03.510
of mind yes and she comes to you as raw and as

00:55:03.510 --> 00:55:05.670
real as she can and this is coming from someone

00:55:05.670 --> 00:55:08.389
who does not fucking like her i do not like jen

00:55:08.389 --> 00:55:14.550
right now and she she was trying to just let

00:55:14.550 --> 00:55:18.199
meet you where she was at Yeah. And for Demi

00:55:18.199 --> 00:55:19.900
to come back and say, I think it's weird when

00:55:19.900 --> 00:55:22.500
people do crying videos. You're a bitch. She's

00:55:22.500 --> 00:55:25.219
crying because she feels emotional for how she

00:55:25.219 --> 00:55:27.900
treated you. She's crying because she realizes

00:55:27.900 --> 00:55:30.099
that she's in a dark place and she has dragged

00:55:30.099 --> 00:55:33.400
you down with her. She is crying because she

00:55:33.400 --> 00:55:36.380
feels things. I would go as far as to say, like,

00:55:36.420 --> 00:55:38.480
maybe I didn't even think it was about any of

00:55:38.480 --> 00:55:41.460
that. I think she was like, or maybe I think

00:55:41.460 --> 00:55:44.730
you're I take that back. I think she was crying

00:55:44.730 --> 00:55:47.670
because it was a culmination of all of those

00:55:47.670 --> 00:55:50.369
things. And then she like, I think the precipice

00:55:50.369 --> 00:55:52.230
of it was like, oh, my God, I fucked up. I fucked

00:55:52.230 --> 00:55:54.190
up so bad. I fucked up. And like, you know, you

00:55:54.190 --> 00:55:57.489
don't know where to put any other emotion. So

00:55:57.489 --> 00:55:59.510
you're just you just start crying. Plus, you're

00:55:59.510 --> 00:56:02.289
hormonal because you're pregnant. I'm crying

00:56:02.289 --> 00:56:05.050
all the time over nothing. And I think that's

00:56:05.050 --> 00:56:06.849
where Jen was at in that moment. And for Demi

00:56:06.849 --> 00:56:08.429
to come back and say, I think it's weird when

00:56:08.429 --> 00:56:10.860
people do that. You're. A mean girl asshole.

00:56:11.000 --> 00:56:18.059
She is a mean girl. She is so un... She... I

00:56:18.059 --> 00:56:20.199
hope she never has to apologize for anything

00:56:20.199 --> 00:56:22.780
in her life because she does not deserve forgiveness

00:56:22.780 --> 00:56:26.119
after the way she has refused to forgive her

00:56:26.119 --> 00:56:30.099
own friends. No. And she goes as far as to say

00:56:30.099 --> 00:56:33.099
it's manipulative and she doesn't buy it because

00:56:33.099 --> 00:56:36.079
it's weird and cowardly to film a crying video.

00:56:37.769 --> 00:56:39.630
She didn't put it on the Internet for everyone

00:56:39.630 --> 00:56:42.409
to see. She sent it to you. She sent it to the

00:56:42.409 --> 00:56:47.789
entire group. And she said, this is why I'm here.

00:56:48.170 --> 00:56:52.289
And I feel like I've hurt people because of where

00:56:52.289 --> 00:56:54.469
I'm at. And you weren't willing to hear that.

00:56:54.550 --> 00:56:56.849
You are the problem. And I'm not willing to hear

00:56:56.849 --> 00:56:59.150
anything else from Demi. And if you didn't want

00:56:59.150 --> 00:57:04.130
to accept her apology, I would almost be OK with

00:57:04.130 --> 00:57:09.510
you saying. at least showing some kind of respect

00:57:09.510 --> 00:57:12.030
for the fact that she tried to reach out and

00:57:12.030 --> 00:57:14.710
tell you where she is and tell you why she's

00:57:14.710 --> 00:57:18.670
hurt you. I would accept you saying, well, I

00:57:18.670 --> 00:57:20.590
get that's why you hurt me, but you still hurt

00:57:20.590 --> 00:57:23.650
me and I need time to like come to terms with

00:57:23.650 --> 00:57:25.210
that. Oh my God. Yeah. If she would have said

00:57:25.210 --> 00:57:27.869
I'm not ready yet, a hundred percent, I would

00:57:27.869 --> 00:57:29.940
have been fine with it. Yeah, but you have to

00:57:29.940 --> 00:57:32.280
forgive people. Aren't you Mormon? Aren't you

00:57:32.280 --> 00:57:35.079
supposed to be forgiving? I don't understand.

00:57:35.420 --> 00:57:37.300
There's no hate like Christian love, my love.

00:57:38.880 --> 00:57:42.920
So then Macy calls out that she feels like anything

00:57:42.920 --> 00:57:45.539
that anyone says will be used against them in

00:57:45.539 --> 00:57:49.630
a future argument. talking about Demi and then

00:57:49.630 --> 00:57:52.210
Demi gets or yeah gets defensive about this I

00:57:52.210 --> 00:57:54.769
love that Macy said something because I was feeling

00:57:54.769 --> 00:57:57.610
the same way about you're not going to allow

00:57:57.610 --> 00:58:01.130
anyone in this group to be vulnerable or imperfect

00:58:01.130 --> 00:58:04.969
at all right because they can't say they're sorry

00:58:04.969 --> 00:58:09.130
but so this is the thing is like okay so Taylor

00:58:09.130 --> 00:58:12.230
is was her first and then it well it was really

00:58:12.230 --> 00:58:14.809
it was Whitney then it's Taylor and then it's

00:58:14.809 --> 00:58:18.530
like Well, it's Jen now, but then it's like,

00:58:18.570 --> 00:58:20.489
at what point do all the girls start to say,

00:58:20.550 --> 00:58:23.570
oh, none of us are safe from Demi's wrath. Like,

00:58:23.630 --> 00:58:25.789
and that's it's weird to say that. But like,

00:58:25.809 --> 00:58:30.050
yeah, it's true. That's the truth that you better

00:58:30.050 --> 00:58:33.750
not tell Demi anything. Oh, yeah. You don't want

00:58:33.750 --> 00:58:37.429
to hear in a vulnerable setting because she will

00:58:37.429 --> 00:58:40.769
use the dirtiest thing to make you feel something

00:58:40.769 --> 00:58:43.829
and try to win an argument. Right. Like you can't

00:58:43.829 --> 00:58:46.460
be vulnerable with that girl at all. By the way,

00:58:46.500 --> 00:58:50.320
she doesn't even have her own face anymore. No

00:58:50.320 --> 00:58:53.900
one's calling that out. Well, I think that's

00:58:53.900 --> 00:58:56.539
pretty manipulative and cowardly not to have

00:58:56.539 --> 00:58:59.860
your own face. Yeah. Oh, my God. No one's calling

00:58:59.860 --> 00:59:01.719
out the age gap between you and your husband.

00:59:02.039 --> 00:59:04.219
No one's calling any of this out to your face.

00:59:04.440 --> 00:59:07.360
Right. So why do you have to play so dirty? It's

00:59:07.360 --> 00:59:13.980
gross. The girls go to a burlesque show. I couldn't

00:59:13.980 --> 00:59:19.480
believe they did that. I. It was like an actual

00:59:19.480 --> 00:59:24.260
like burlesque show. Like, dear viewer, holes

00:59:24.260 --> 00:59:28.360
were being shown. I I've been to a burlesque

00:59:28.360 --> 00:59:29.800
show. I've never been to one in New Orleans.

00:59:30.340 --> 00:59:32.880
They get a little freaky deaky in New Orleans

00:59:32.880 --> 00:59:36.019
outside of burlesque shows. So everything is

00:59:36.019 --> 00:59:39.820
like, yeah. Yes. So this woman gets up on stage

00:59:39.820 --> 00:59:43.780
and. Her tits and her puss were out. Oh, yeah.

00:59:43.980 --> 00:59:47.000
And because I've every burlesque I've ever been

00:59:47.000 --> 00:59:49.000
to, I've seen titties at a burlesque and like

00:59:49.000 --> 00:59:52.599
I've but mostly it's just lingerie. Yeah, typically

00:59:52.599 --> 00:59:58.480
it is lingerie. But this girl, this girl, I am

00:59:58.480 --> 01:00:02.460
naked on this stage. I'm naked. I am the way

01:00:02.460 --> 01:00:07.659
God made me. And then the dancer pulls a literal

01:00:07.659 --> 01:00:12.409
joint out of her cooch. Yeah. Lights it up, takes

01:00:12.409 --> 01:00:15.570
a hit. And then she walks up to Layla and says,

01:00:15.690 --> 01:00:18.030
here. And then Layla takes a hit out of her.

01:00:18.409 --> 01:00:21.989
Did you notice who was saying, oh, her, oh, her,

01:00:21.989 --> 01:00:26.530
oh, her. Was it Jenny? Of course she did. Stupid,

01:00:26.670 --> 01:00:30.769
stupid. Yeah, it was. That was. That was a lot.

01:00:30.969 --> 01:00:36.710
A lot. Go Layla. And here's the thing is. I.

01:00:37.519 --> 01:00:39.340
I don't have a lot of boundaries with this stuff.

01:00:39.480 --> 01:00:43.500
I don't know that I could have taken a hit off

01:00:43.500 --> 01:00:48.639
the cooch joint. Yeah, that's a little intense,

01:00:48.860 --> 01:00:53.840
especially like, you don't know this woman. You

01:00:53.840 --> 01:00:58.980
didn't sign a waiver. No. No. Yeah, I don't know.

01:00:59.019 --> 01:01:04.320
I don't know. Go Layla. I was impressed. I mean,

01:01:04.340 --> 01:01:10.380
honestly, I was too. Yeah. We go back to Utah.

01:01:10.460 --> 01:01:12.760
Taylor goes to her mom's house and she talks

01:01:12.760 --> 01:01:14.619
about how she's not in a great headspace because

01:01:14.619 --> 01:01:16.320
of the Saints and Sinners party. She feels like

01:01:16.320 --> 01:01:18.119
it's better to stay home and go to therapy. I

01:01:18.119 --> 01:01:19.880
agree with her. I think Taylor is very mature

01:01:19.880 --> 01:01:23.039
for taking that stance. I think I was very grown

01:01:23.039 --> 01:01:25.860
up to be like, maybe I shouldn't be in New Orleans

01:01:25.860 --> 01:01:29.940
right now. Right. But also something that like

01:01:29.940 --> 01:01:34.449
it goes a step further to show that Taylor. doesn't

01:01:34.449 --> 01:01:37.150
care about the publicity of all of it because

01:01:37.150 --> 01:01:39.550
what what goes on behind the scenes and like

01:01:39.550 --> 01:01:42.070
the conversations that go on if you don't show

01:01:42.070 --> 01:01:45.650
up to events they will start to they will start

01:01:45.650 --> 01:01:47.469
to produce you out of the show like they've talked

01:01:47.469 --> 01:01:49.389
about it on the real housewives a lot like the

01:01:49.389 --> 01:01:54.809
reason that um oh fuck who was it uh mary cosby

01:01:54.809 --> 01:01:56.969
the reason mary cosby got written out of the

01:01:56.969 --> 01:02:00.929
the second second second or third season was

01:02:00.929 --> 01:02:03.900
that she didn't oh she she didn't get i'm sorry

01:02:03.900 --> 01:02:06.380
it was the third season the reason mary cosby

01:02:06.380 --> 01:02:08.219
didn't come back for season three is because

01:02:08.219 --> 01:02:11.340
she didn't show up to season two of or the season

01:02:11.340 --> 01:02:16.400
two reunion um yeah of salt lake city so this

01:02:16.400 --> 01:02:19.059
this is a very this could have very real impacts

01:02:19.059 --> 01:02:22.039
for taylor and she said my mental health is more

01:02:22.039 --> 01:02:24.599
important so i will i do appreciate that about

01:02:24.599 --> 01:02:28.579
her yeah Yeah. We're back in New Orleans. Jesse's

01:02:28.579 --> 01:02:30.940
doing Layla's hair and Michaela is giving Miranda

01:02:30.940 --> 01:02:35.519
lymphatic massage. It was a weird, weird scene.

01:02:35.699 --> 01:02:38.840
Yeah, it was kind of strange. I do like a lymphatic

01:02:38.840 --> 01:02:42.440
massage. Like, I believe in the idea of that.

01:02:42.539 --> 01:02:45.639
I don't know what that is. Oh, so like your lymph

01:02:45.639 --> 01:02:48.900
nodes. You know, the things that get swollen

01:02:48.900 --> 01:02:52.599
when you get sick, they like hold all kinds of

01:02:52.599 --> 01:02:56.320
hormones and impurities and stuff. And so a lymphatic

01:02:56.320 --> 01:03:04.239
massage is like draining that. Oh, yeah. Layla

01:03:04.239 --> 01:03:06.280
says she's a little bit high and decides now's

01:03:06.280 --> 01:03:08.059
the time to ask Demi if she ever sees herself

01:03:08.059 --> 01:03:11.500
being friends with Taylor again. First of all,

01:03:11.619 --> 01:03:16.510
you're not high. Secondly. What a strange thing

01:03:16.510 --> 01:03:22.409
to ask. It is. I think she's just trying. Poor

01:03:22.409 --> 01:03:24.809
Layla is trying to tow both sides of this line

01:03:24.809 --> 01:03:29.469
that's a mile wide. It is. And obviously Demi

01:03:29.469 --> 01:03:30.889
says no. She's not gonna be friends with her.

01:03:31.010 --> 01:03:33.070
I don't want them to be friends again. Honestly,

01:03:33.110 --> 01:03:34.469
I don't want anyone to be friends with Demi.

01:03:34.550 --> 01:03:41.369
No. All the girls are confused. about Demi rebuilding

01:03:41.369 --> 01:03:43.230
her relationship with Whitney and then it's kind

01:03:43.230 --> 01:03:45.230
of like there's a double standard and then Layla

01:03:45.230 --> 01:03:49.429
just starts disassociating again yeah and I have

01:03:49.429 --> 01:03:53.710
a feeling that part of this comes back to her

01:03:53.710 --> 01:03:56.130
childhood I wonder what kind of home she grew

01:03:56.130 --> 01:03:59.130
up in like I wonder if there was because I Taylor

01:03:59.130 --> 01:04:00.710
my cousin Taylor and I have talked a lot about

01:04:00.710 --> 01:04:06.190
this where when fights are happening around us

01:04:06.190 --> 01:04:08.590
that we're not directly involved in we will start

01:04:08.590 --> 01:04:11.599
to do exactly what Layla's doing where we will

01:04:11.599 --> 01:04:13.519
just stare off into space and we will not know

01:04:13.519 --> 01:04:15.000
what's going on around us because we don't want

01:04:15.000 --> 01:04:17.539
to deal with it. Yeah, I think she just doesn't

01:04:17.539 --> 01:04:21.099
want to be involved in any of it. Right. And

01:04:21.099 --> 01:04:25.719
then let's see. Demi is willing to die on the

01:04:25.719 --> 01:04:28.599
hill of believing Taylor is the problem. I believe

01:04:28.599 --> 01:04:32.000
that this is because Demi wants to be the leader

01:04:32.000 --> 01:04:34.309
of the group and make the most money. That's

01:04:34.309 --> 01:04:36.010
really what it boils down to. Oh, 100%. Yes.

01:04:36.070 --> 01:04:38.210
She can't have any grace for Taylor because if

01:04:38.210 --> 01:04:40.469
that's true, then Taylor will remain the leader

01:04:40.469 --> 01:04:45.110
of mom talk. Right. And maybe Taylor does chase

01:04:45.110 --> 01:04:49.110
chaos. Maybe she does. But do you think for one

01:04:49.110 --> 01:04:53.769
second that you are not guilty of that also,

01:04:53.869 --> 01:04:57.170
Demi? That's all you're doing. All of the girls

01:04:57.170 --> 01:04:59.210
there are guilty of that. It's like the clout

01:04:59.210 --> 01:05:02.090
chasing argument. Oh, my God. Don't don't get

01:05:02.090 --> 01:05:05.699
me started. Like, that's what you're there to

01:05:05.699 --> 01:05:11.619
do. Speaking of what they're there to do, we

01:05:11.619 --> 01:05:13.840
cut to the next morning where Layla comes down.

01:05:14.559 --> 01:05:18.940
Oh, this is messy, messy. This this was actually

01:05:18.940 --> 01:05:23.300
hard to watch. Yeah. So Layla comes down with

01:05:23.300 --> 01:05:27.320
a Walgreens bag full of. pregnancy test and says

01:05:27.320 --> 01:05:29.880
let's play pregnancy roulette and i feel like

01:05:29.880 --> 01:05:32.539
i vaguely remember this being a trend on tiktok

01:05:32.539 --> 01:05:39.119
yeah it was okay it was and macy starts panicking

01:05:39.119 --> 01:05:40.300
because she's like i'm not ready to tell the

01:05:40.300 --> 01:05:42.440
girls i'm pregnant she wanted to do it on her

01:05:42.440 --> 01:05:46.860
terms yeah sure and this is something i didn't

01:05:46.860 --> 01:05:48.480
expect from layla of all people but she's like

01:05:48.480 --> 01:05:49.900
it'll be fine it'll be fine it'll be fine and

01:05:49.900 --> 01:05:52.829
like pressured the girls into doing it I remember

01:05:52.829 --> 01:05:55.369
how I said she kind of just doesn't think before

01:05:55.369 --> 01:05:57.650
she speaks. I think she just really wanted to

01:05:57.650 --> 01:06:01.289
do it. And like, she just doesn't think about

01:06:01.289 --> 01:06:03.829
the implications of what she's doing or saying.

01:06:04.110 --> 01:06:08.869
And part of me wonders. Did production put her

01:06:08.869 --> 01:06:12.949
up to this a little bit? Yeah. What car do you

01:06:12.949 --> 01:06:14.590
think she used to go buy all those pregnancy

01:06:14.590 --> 01:06:17.809
tests? OK, OK. You know what I mean? I agree.

01:06:19.110 --> 01:06:23.650
So Michaela is the first one to pull out. Wait.

01:06:23.869 --> 01:06:25.550
Yeah, I'm sorry. Michaela pulls out the first

01:06:25.550 --> 01:06:31.389
positive test. And. That's how we come to find

01:06:31.389 --> 01:06:36.469
out Michaela is also pregnant. Yeah. Well, yeah,

01:06:36.610 --> 01:06:39.190
when they're talking about it later, because

01:06:39.190 --> 01:06:44.769
there are two there are two positive tests. She

01:06:44.769 --> 01:06:47.849
tells Macy like in the privacy of their room.

01:06:48.010 --> 01:06:50.610
She's also in a confessional, too. Yeah. Yeah.

01:06:50.630 --> 01:06:56.039
Yeah. And then I will give Demi this one. Of

01:06:56.039 --> 01:06:58.360
course, she's the one to pull out the second

01:06:58.360 --> 01:07:02.920
positive one. Yeah, that that was hard to watch.

01:07:03.099 --> 01:07:05.920
And that really, really, really sucked because

01:07:05.920 --> 01:07:12.019
she has been. She has been trying to get pregnant

01:07:12.019 --> 01:07:15.699
and she starts crying. She has a full blown meltdown

01:07:15.699 --> 01:07:21.780
and. I had to take another positive test. Yes.

01:07:22.159 --> 01:07:25.219
And and like I'm sorry, she had to take another

01:07:25.219 --> 01:07:27.699
pregnancy test, which obviously came out negative.

01:07:27.760 --> 01:07:31.300
So that confirmed because neither Michaela nor

01:07:31.300 --> 01:07:34.860
Macy were willing to, like, give up their right

01:07:34.860 --> 01:07:38.659
to tell the girls how they wanted to. And even

01:07:38.659 --> 01:07:40.559
if one of them did, they would have had to do

01:07:40.559 --> 01:07:44.639
both of them. And so they. Yeah, that was hard.

01:07:45.309 --> 01:07:49.610
And so Demi did think for a minute it could be

01:07:49.610 --> 01:07:52.070
her. And so then she had to go take another pregnancy

01:07:52.070 --> 01:07:55.309
test and see the negative and be like heartbroken.

01:07:55.630 --> 01:07:58.489
Yeah. I will say I hate Demi right now. That

01:07:58.489 --> 01:08:01.590
really was hard to watch. Can I say something

01:08:01.590 --> 01:08:04.570
a little insensitive? Please. If you're struggling

01:08:04.570 --> 01:08:06.849
with your fertility and you're actively trying

01:08:06.849 --> 01:08:10.789
to have a baby, why are you not sitting in the

01:08:10.789 --> 01:08:14.800
bathroom? After you take your pregnancy test

01:08:14.800 --> 01:08:17.640
until you see the results of said pregnancy test

01:08:17.640 --> 01:08:24.939
before you put it in the roulette. OK, I'll get

01:08:24.939 --> 01:08:27.800
I'll go one step further and I would if I were

01:08:27.800 --> 01:08:30.779
Demi, I would have said I'm flat out not willing

01:08:30.779 --> 01:08:33.800
to participate in this game. 100 percent. Number

01:08:33.800 --> 01:08:36.819
one, it's a game. But if you're going to do it,

01:08:36.880 --> 01:08:40.689
I just feel like. To avoid all of this pain that

01:08:40.689 --> 01:08:42.810
you've experienced time and time and time again

01:08:42.810 --> 01:08:46.369
with a negative test and not knowing, I would

01:08:46.369 --> 01:08:49.050
have known my result before I ever put it back

01:08:49.050 --> 01:08:52.630
in the bag. Oh, 100%. Like, I don't know why

01:08:52.630 --> 01:08:56.210
she let it actually be a roulette. And like,

01:08:56.270 --> 01:08:59.829
because this is like the obvious outcome. They're

01:08:59.829 --> 01:09:01.649
always pregnant in this group. There was going

01:09:01.649 --> 01:09:03.989
to be somebody. My God, I've never seen a group

01:09:03.989 --> 01:09:05.689
of pregnant people like this before in my life.

01:09:08.980 --> 01:09:12.760
So Jesse goes in to comfort Demi, who is now

01:09:12.760 --> 01:09:17.079
a complete and total wreck. And I thought this

01:09:17.079 --> 01:09:18.520
was big of Jesse because they're going through

01:09:18.520 --> 01:09:21.560
their own stuff right now. Yeah, I do too. This

01:09:21.560 --> 01:09:23.420
is where Demi starts to lose me, where she's

01:09:23.420 --> 01:09:26.039
like, I try so hard to consider everyone else's

01:09:26.039 --> 01:09:28.239
feelings and everyone's so flippant about mine.

01:09:28.460 --> 01:09:30.899
And I was like, you have never considered another

01:09:30.899 --> 01:09:34.520
person's feelings in your life. Never. Not once.

01:09:35.039 --> 01:09:39.699
No. So then. Macy tells Michaela that she's also

01:09:39.699 --> 01:09:42.500
pregnant and she's like two weeks ahead of her.

01:09:42.819 --> 01:09:45.100
They tell each other they're pregnant. It's very

01:09:45.100 --> 01:09:46.939
sweet and cute. But then they have to go tell

01:09:46.939 --> 01:09:50.319
Demi and it's like they almost feel like ashamed

01:09:50.319 --> 01:09:54.279
because Demi's going through it. Exactly. However,

01:09:54.720 --> 01:09:58.439
Miss Fan Favorite can go to all of her fans to

01:09:58.439 --> 01:10:03.159
feel better. She can. I just. We go back to.

01:10:03.869 --> 01:10:06.029
We go back home where Taylor tells us she's deciding

01:10:06.029 --> 01:10:08.329
it's time to break things off with Dakota. And

01:10:08.329 --> 01:10:10.909
she feels at peace with that situation. And did

01:10:10.909 --> 01:10:14.310
we ever see them break up? No. And it's just

01:10:14.310 --> 01:10:16.210
like, I feel like I've heard that from her a

01:10:16.210 --> 01:10:18.210
million times. A million times. Like, how done

01:10:18.210 --> 01:10:20.270
are you actually? Are you going to stop sleeping

01:10:20.270 --> 01:10:24.710
with him? Are you going to stop leading him on?

01:10:24.949 --> 01:10:29.770
No. Because, like, what do you mean by breaking

01:10:29.770 --> 01:10:32.470
things off? You're already not together technically.

01:10:35.080 --> 01:10:38.420
So we'll see. So we go back to New Orleans. The

01:10:38.420 --> 01:10:41.159
girls are running around. They go to Cafe Du

01:10:41.159 --> 01:10:46.140
Monde and eat beignets. And they look so good.

01:10:46.340 --> 01:10:48.380
I want one. I love them. Have you been there?

01:10:48.520 --> 01:10:51.500
Oh, yeah. I want one so bad. They have a Cafe

01:10:51.500 --> 01:10:53.819
Du Monde. They have like the the one you envision,

01:10:54.020 --> 01:10:56.920
the one Kim Kardashian went to, the big one on

01:10:56.920 --> 01:10:59.859
Jackson Square. But then they also have a location

01:10:59.859 --> 01:11:03.359
like. In their city park. There are locations

01:11:03.359 --> 01:11:06.260
that are like indoors. They're all delicious.

01:11:08.079 --> 01:11:10.060
Rarely will you find a bad beignet, especially

01:11:10.060 --> 01:11:14.239
in New Orleans. They're so good. I love that.

01:11:14.340 --> 01:11:17.279
And I will be eating them next week. I am so

01:11:17.279 --> 01:11:20.800
excited for you. By the dozen. Jessie decides

01:11:20.800 --> 01:11:22.939
that it's time to pull Demi aside while they're

01:11:22.939 --> 01:11:25.340
walking around a market. And she wants to hear

01:11:25.340 --> 01:11:28.760
Demi's side of the story. Of course, Demi presents

01:11:28.760 --> 01:11:32.119
it in the best way she possibly can. And Jessie

01:11:32.119 --> 01:11:34.140
feels like she's being taken advantage of because

01:11:34.140 --> 01:11:37.279
she does everyone's hair for free. And that's

01:11:37.279 --> 01:11:39.420
I didn't realize that, but that's completely

01:11:39.420 --> 01:11:45.359
valid. And I wouldn't be doing that. I just got

01:11:45.359 --> 01:11:48.579
to tell you, I if they were like my best friends.

01:11:48.600 --> 01:11:52.300
Yeah. She walks away from the conversation saying

01:11:52.300 --> 01:11:55.739
she doesn't feel better and that maybe the move

01:11:55.739 --> 01:11:59.199
is to put up a wall and keep some distance between

01:11:59.199 --> 01:12:01.000
her and Demi. And I think everyone should put

01:12:01.000 --> 01:12:03.100
up a wall around Demi and leave Demi inside of

01:12:03.100 --> 01:12:06.060
the wall. Yet again, Jesse being mature and emotionally

01:12:06.060 --> 01:12:09.560
intelligent and realizing Demi can't own her

01:12:09.560 --> 01:12:12.659
mistakes. And so she'll just distance herself.

01:12:14.230 --> 01:12:17.529
The girls go back to the house and they start

01:12:17.529 --> 01:12:20.529
to unpack a little bit about the Mormon church.

01:12:20.750 --> 01:12:22.670
And then Jesse acknowledges that the church is

01:12:22.670 --> 01:12:27.949
a little culty. And this brought me back to the

01:12:27.949 --> 01:12:30.409
Nazarene church because I was like, ooh, we are

01:12:30.409 --> 01:12:32.250
going to talk about this one day because there's

01:12:32.250 --> 01:12:35.369
a lot there. So many people have had that awakening.

01:12:35.430 --> 01:12:40.670
My dad grew up Catholic. He's an atheist. My

01:12:40.670 --> 01:12:44.989
mom, too, actually. Oh, love that. Jesse says

01:12:44.989 --> 01:12:47.609
she doesn't really believe some of the stuff

01:12:47.609 --> 01:12:49.350
in the Book of Mormon, but she feels comfortable.

01:12:49.970 --> 01:12:54.770
And she also feels uncomfortable about the sealing

01:12:54.770 --> 01:12:57.329
and marriage situation in the church. And they

01:12:57.329 --> 01:12:59.310
talk about this a little bit on The Real Housewives

01:12:59.310 --> 01:13:01.609
of Salt Lake City, too. I guess the long and

01:13:01.609 --> 01:13:04.869
short of it is if you get married in the Mormon

01:13:04.869 --> 01:13:08.609
temple, your marriage is sealed. in the eyes

01:13:08.609 --> 01:13:11.109
of god and as long as it's sealed regardless

01:13:11.109 --> 01:13:13.670
of what happens in yeah it doesn't matter if

01:13:13.670 --> 01:13:17.189
you get divorced or anything yeah and that to

01:13:17.189 --> 01:13:20.949
me feels uncomfortable but then if it's unsealed

01:13:20.949 --> 01:13:23.770
you're unsealed from your entire family so like

01:13:23.770 --> 01:13:25.810
and this is this is where i come back to with

01:13:25.810 --> 01:13:27.390
like the religion thing where it's like there's

01:13:27.390 --> 01:13:29.810
always that big bad boogie man like in the afterlife

01:13:29.810 --> 01:13:37.149
to scare you because i uh because it like in

01:13:37.149 --> 01:13:39.250
uh it was i think it was miranda's situation

01:13:39.250 --> 01:13:43.310
they her husband unsealed the marriage to get

01:13:43.310 --> 01:13:46.710
sealed to another person it was i don't know

01:13:46.710 --> 01:13:49.409
miranda's marriage is unsealed so now miranda

01:13:49.409 --> 01:13:51.750
is told that she's not sealed to her children

01:13:51.750 --> 01:13:54.289
in the afterlife right yeah that's what it is

01:13:54.289 --> 01:13:58.409
sick yeah because it's like you're in in some

01:13:58.409 --> 01:14:00.930
religions you're told like oh in the afterlife

01:14:00.930 --> 01:14:02.430
you don't know who anyone is and you're just

01:14:02.430 --> 01:14:03.850
a floating ball of light in heaven or whatever

01:14:03.850 --> 01:14:07.729
and it's like Heather Gay talks about how her

01:14:07.729 --> 01:14:09.289
family always said there's never going to be

01:14:09.289 --> 01:14:13.569
empty chairs at the in heaven when she gets there.

01:14:13.630 --> 01:14:15.930
And now she feels like because she's not in that

01:14:15.930 --> 01:14:18.229
religion anymore, she feels a sense of loss there.

01:14:18.569 --> 01:14:23.260
And I hate that. Yeah. Why are you like. You're

01:14:23.260 --> 01:14:25.399
already going through struggle and strife in

01:14:25.399 --> 01:14:28.800
your living life. And now you're also creating

01:14:28.800 --> 01:14:32.239
stress about your afterlife. I just can't. But

01:14:32.239 --> 01:14:33.760
that's the thing about religion that gets me

01:14:33.760 --> 01:14:35.720
so much is like, oh, my God, we're all so obsessed

01:14:35.720 --> 01:14:39.699
with dying. Seriously, you are so worried about

01:14:39.699 --> 01:14:42.659
what happens when you die. And it's like ruining

01:14:42.659 --> 01:14:47.289
your actual life. OK, I'm sorry. So the Miranda

01:14:47.289 --> 01:14:49.430
situation, she does explain that her husband

01:14:49.430 --> 01:14:51.510
removed himself from the church, which is what

01:14:51.510 --> 01:14:54.369
broke the seal from her. But because you have

01:14:54.369 --> 01:14:59.010
to have a man to be sealed to, she's no longer

01:14:59.010 --> 01:15:00.949
sealed to her children in the eyes of the church.

01:15:01.489 --> 01:15:05.189
And that I just can't subscribe to that. That's

01:15:05.189 --> 01:15:07.789
so sick. Yeah. They literally have your DNA.

01:15:07.810 --> 01:15:10.250
Like, I just can't subscribe to that way of thinking.

01:15:10.369 --> 01:15:13.289
I can't. I understand it's their religion, but

01:15:13.289 --> 01:15:16.470
like that. Has to cause you such pain. And for

01:15:16.470 --> 01:15:21.989
what? Yes. The girls go to a vampire dinner.

01:15:22.590 --> 01:15:29.229
Yeah. It was so weird. I will say in the opening

01:15:29.229 --> 01:15:31.670
shots walking there, I've never seen anyone look

01:15:31.670 --> 01:15:35.170
as incredible as Macy does. I know. My God. She

01:15:35.170 --> 01:15:37.989
was eating that up. My God. I still remember

01:15:37.989 --> 01:15:43.340
what she looked like. Yeah. What a woman. so

01:15:43.340 --> 01:15:45.239
the restaurant they get you have you are there

01:15:45.239 --> 01:15:47.060
a lot of places like this in new orleans like

01:15:47.060 --> 01:15:50.979
it feels like it's like they like the occult

01:15:50.979 --> 01:15:54.079
is what i'll say it's not like they like halloween

01:15:54.079 --> 01:15:56.319
or anything like that but they like they lean

01:15:56.319 --> 01:16:00.460
into that like demons vampires that type of thing

01:16:00.460 --> 01:16:02.600
they think everything is haunted all the time

01:16:02.600 --> 01:16:05.180
obviously there's like voodoo and stuff like

01:16:05.180 --> 01:16:08.119
that but that's like Not really fucked with as

01:16:08.119 --> 01:16:11.460
much. I mean, it's yeah, it's a touristy thing,

01:16:11.539 --> 01:16:14.579
too. Sure. And I've never been to a place like

01:16:14.579 --> 01:16:16.539
that, but that I have always known people who

01:16:16.539 --> 01:16:19.539
live there. So, like, that's why this kind of

01:16:19.539 --> 01:16:24.180
place feels like a tourist trap. So they they

01:16:24.180 --> 01:16:26.960
go in. It's witchy. It's vampire or whatever.

01:16:27.119 --> 01:16:29.600
The waiter comes out and he's wearing fangs.

01:16:30.300 --> 01:16:33.460
yeah and the drinks are in blood bags and like

01:16:33.460 --> 01:16:36.659
okay like whatever but then he says like there's

01:16:36.659 --> 01:16:38.800
virgin blood in the drinks and i know it was

01:16:38.800 --> 01:16:41.579
probably just fruit punch or whatever yeah it's

01:16:41.579 --> 01:16:44.359
i wouldn't have been able to drink whatever the

01:16:44.359 --> 01:16:46.220
drink was because i wouldn't have been able to

01:16:46.220 --> 01:16:48.239
get past that mental block i have a thing about

01:16:48.239 --> 01:16:49.840
that like and i wouldn't have been able to do

01:16:49.840 --> 01:16:53.699
that yeah it's weird I don't know. And you would

01:16:53.699 --> 01:16:56.880
think like as super religious people, like Mormons,

01:16:56.880 --> 01:17:00.739
they would be like, oh, I can't even like say

01:17:00.739 --> 01:17:04.699
I'm doing that. Oh, I'm I agree. It's shocking

01:17:04.699 --> 01:17:09.560
to me that they like were into that. I didn't

01:17:09.560 --> 01:17:14.899
like it. Demi is a demon monster and the other

01:17:14.899 --> 01:17:17.649
girls are starting to see it like because. And

01:17:17.649 --> 01:17:19.829
at this point, it feels like it's becoming an

01:17:19.829 --> 01:17:21.970
obsession with Demi where it's like, I have to

01:17:21.970 --> 01:17:23.170
talk about Taylor. I have to talk about Taylor.

01:17:23.409 --> 01:17:26.569
It's like a tick almost. Yes. Well, yeah, she's

01:17:26.569 --> 01:17:28.970
like on this train of trying to replace Taylor.

01:17:29.069 --> 01:17:33.270
So she like keeps driving into it. Can't stop

01:17:33.270 --> 01:17:35.329
talking about Taylor, especially when Taylor's

01:17:35.329 --> 01:17:39.210
not there. Oh, no, because like, God forbid you

01:17:39.210 --> 01:17:41.470
ever stand on your own business. But that's neither

01:17:41.470 --> 01:17:43.630
here nor there. Yeah. If Taylor can defend herself,

01:17:43.810 --> 01:17:46.489
then you're scared. So what now? So what now?

01:17:47.719 --> 01:17:51.359
But what now is episode 10, the season finale,

01:17:51.779 --> 01:17:56.260
the book of salvation. Oh, yeah, baby. We're

01:17:56.260 --> 01:17:59.979
almost there. Listener. OK, so we open the episode.

01:18:00.220 --> 01:18:04.119
Layla brings Taylor a beignet kit. Yeah. If I

01:18:04.119 --> 01:18:06.180
don't receive a beignet kit from you when you

01:18:06.180 --> 01:18:08.779
come back from New Orleans, I will kill myself.

01:18:09.020 --> 01:18:11.239
Just so you can get them all over the place.

01:18:11.300 --> 01:18:16.470
I'll get you. So. Layla does feel like she needs

01:18:16.470 --> 01:18:18.430
to make up for not fully having Taylor's back.

01:18:19.590 --> 01:18:24.010
And this. The more and more I think about the

01:18:24.010 --> 01:18:27.329
way the rest of this scene went, Taylor's mom

01:18:27.329 --> 01:18:32.369
has to be talking to production directly. You

01:18:32.369 --> 01:18:35.909
would say there's no doubt in my mind. And I

01:18:35.909 --> 01:18:38.949
think they're doing her dirty because like they

01:18:38.949 --> 01:18:42.180
are. Putting her in situations where she looks

01:18:42.180 --> 01:18:43.659
like the idiot and they're not telling her how

01:18:43.659 --> 01:18:48.800
to handle it. So Taylor's mom shows up and she

01:18:48.800 --> 01:18:53.699
they're talking about the Christmas party that

01:18:53.699 --> 01:18:59.319
Demi's hosting and. Taylor's like, I guess like,

01:18:59.359 --> 01:19:01.479
like I've, I've bought all the stuff for, and

01:19:01.479 --> 01:19:03.439
Layla's like, you're not invited, babe. What

01:19:03.439 --> 01:19:06.020
are you talking about? And we find out like she

01:19:06.020 --> 01:19:08.800
was accidentally invited, which that's a real

01:19:08.800 --> 01:19:12.439
kick in the dick. But Taylor's mom is sitting

01:19:12.439 --> 01:19:19.000
there. She's like, I could go. She's so weird.

01:19:19.500 --> 01:19:22.239
Desperate to be on that show. She wants all the

01:19:22.239 --> 01:19:26.119
screen time possible, but she also is like, If

01:19:26.119 --> 01:19:29.359
my mom acted like that on TV or not, I would

01:19:29.359 --> 01:19:37.819
be so humiliated. Oh, to say the least. Knowing

01:19:37.819 --> 01:19:41.659
how this shakes out, though, I'm kind of OK with

01:19:41.659 --> 01:19:44.960
Leanne offering to insert herself. I don't know

01:19:44.960 --> 01:19:49.619
that I am. But I also am obviously not like Taylor,

01:19:49.680 --> 01:19:51.880
because if my mom would have even said, well,

01:19:51.939 --> 01:19:55.359
I can show up, I would have been like. No, you

01:19:55.359 --> 01:19:58.819
won't. No, please don't. Denise would not have

01:19:58.819 --> 01:20:01.319
known that this party was happening. No, but

01:20:01.319 --> 01:20:05.039
like, I don't know. That's the difference between

01:20:05.039 --> 01:20:07.060
me and Taylor, I guess. I would have been like,

01:20:07.079 --> 01:20:10.479
hard no. Absolutely not. Why does she want to

01:20:10.479 --> 01:20:13.380
deal with her grown daughter's problems for her?

01:20:13.520 --> 01:20:15.119
Make her face it. She doesn't want to deal with

01:20:15.119 --> 01:20:18.020
the problems. She wants to be on TV. Yeah. I

01:20:18.020 --> 01:20:20.479
think that's a universal truth we all need to

01:20:20.479 --> 01:20:25.460
accept. Yeah. Yeah, that's true. So we get to

01:20:25.460 --> 01:20:29.340
the Christmas party. I hate it that Demi looks

01:20:29.340 --> 01:20:31.479
gorgeous. Like she looks really good. She looks

01:20:31.479 --> 01:20:33.640
stunning at the Christmas party. It pissed me

01:20:33.640 --> 01:20:37.079
off. There's a champagne toast and Demi says,

01:20:37.199 --> 01:20:38.779
I feel like there's going to be minimal drama

01:20:38.779 --> 01:20:42.439
because Taylor's not here. Then Leanne immediately

01:20:42.439 --> 01:20:49.159
walks in holding a gift. Yeah. Hi, Leanne. We

01:20:49.159 --> 01:20:53.380
get a flashback to. Leanne calling Whitney and

01:20:53.380 --> 01:20:55.539
saying, why didn't you show up to Taylor's baby

01:20:55.539 --> 01:20:59.159
shower? And this is also embarrassing for Taylor.

01:20:59.319 --> 01:21:04.939
Yeah. Weird. Leanne and Demi go to sit down and

01:21:04.939 --> 01:21:09.659
talk and. So I'm conflicted about this. I know

01:21:09.659 --> 01:21:12.939
I've given Leanne a lot of shit and like I think

01:21:12.939 --> 01:21:18.220
she deserves it most of the time. I. If you look

01:21:18.220 --> 01:21:22.810
at it in for nothing else, but. this is a mom

01:21:22.810 --> 01:21:26.409
who's willing to show up for her daughter sure

01:21:26.409 --> 01:21:32.130
sure i do think that that's not quite what this

01:21:32.130 --> 01:21:35.010
is but like i will say maybe that was part of

01:21:35.010 --> 01:21:37.350
it maybe that's why taylor was so desperate not

01:21:37.350 --> 01:21:39.989
not i think taylor's been desperate for her mom

01:21:39.989 --> 01:21:42.510
to defend her for most of her life and i think

01:21:42.510 --> 01:21:44.850
maybe this is why taylor was like i'll give her

01:21:44.850 --> 01:21:49.770
that whatever i don't know yeah i mean it's Obviously,

01:21:49.789 --> 01:21:52.090
you'd love to see a mom standing up for her daughter,

01:21:52.170 --> 01:21:57.289
but it's like, I don't know. Doing it in the

01:21:57.289 --> 01:21:59.489
most dramatic way possible to be on TV makes

01:21:59.489 --> 01:22:03.930
it a little less genuine to me. But what's even

01:22:03.930 --> 01:22:08.149
more awkward than Leanne's mom showing up? I'm

01:22:08.149 --> 01:22:10.489
sorry, what's even more awkward than Leanne showing

01:22:10.489 --> 01:22:13.409
up to talk to Demi is Whitney walking over to

01:22:13.409 --> 01:22:17.649
have Demi's back. Whitney needs to mind her business.

01:22:18.109 --> 01:22:20.890
Honest to God. Whitney, you're invited to this

01:22:20.890 --> 01:22:24.270
party. Leave well enough alone. Yeah, please

01:22:24.270 --> 01:22:31.909
be grateful for your seat and go away. So Demi

01:22:31.909 --> 01:22:34.149
talks about how she's also been a single mom

01:22:34.149 --> 01:22:37.850
in the past when when it comes up like Taylor

01:22:37.850 --> 01:22:41.000
doesn't feel supported. And then. She's comparing

01:22:41.000 --> 01:22:42.720
herself to Taylor, talking about how she's also

01:22:42.720 --> 01:22:44.140
been a single mom. And then we get to Jessie

01:22:44.140 --> 01:22:46.060
saying, Demi was a single mom for one month.

01:22:47.180 --> 01:22:50.579
That made me cackle when I watched it. I was

01:22:50.579 --> 01:22:53.619
so dead. And what I appreciate about Jessie is

01:22:53.619 --> 01:22:57.640
she's not going to let you get it. Not after

01:22:57.640 --> 01:23:00.779
you talk shit about her business. Tell it like

01:23:00.779 --> 01:23:05.119
it is, Jessie. Brett was kind of standing over

01:23:05.119 --> 01:23:07.039
on the sidelines. And what I do appreciate about

01:23:07.039 --> 01:23:10.779
Brett that I don't think a lot of. husbands on

01:23:10.779 --> 01:23:15.359
reality tv especially real housewives um he did

01:23:15.359 --> 01:23:18.800
what a lot of them don't do is that he was over

01:23:18.800 --> 01:23:21.800
just kind of letting the conversation play out

01:23:21.800 --> 01:23:24.840
how it was going to he never once said oh look

01:23:24.840 --> 01:23:26.659
at those women over there doing women things

01:23:26.659 --> 01:23:29.260
like he just said i'm staying out of it entirely

01:23:29.260 --> 01:23:33.100
and only inserted himself when santa shows up

01:23:33.100 --> 01:23:38.550
and that was and part of me is like Could he

01:23:38.550 --> 01:23:40.609
have done a better job defending his wife? Maybe.

01:23:41.289 --> 01:23:44.189
I don't think it was his place to defend her.

01:23:44.250 --> 01:23:46.430
I think she was having a conversation with another

01:23:46.430 --> 01:23:49.829
grown woman and she can hold her own in that.

01:23:50.850 --> 01:23:55.069
Yeah. Leanne decides it's time to head out and

01:23:55.069 --> 01:24:01.210
Demi says to Leanne, I haven't even pulled out

01:24:01.210 --> 01:24:06.350
the boxing gloves yet. She's so petty. Well,

01:24:06.369 --> 01:24:10.720
and this is where I'm like, Okay, so you're going

01:24:10.720 --> 01:24:14.359
out of your way to, like, to annihilate her entire

01:24:14.359 --> 01:24:19.500
family at this point. Yeah. I think that if you

01:24:19.500 --> 01:24:21.039
were going to be an asshole to Leanne, you should

01:24:21.039 --> 01:24:22.680
have said you're not welcome here. I'm not. It's

01:24:22.680 --> 01:24:23.899
not a conversation I'm willing to participate

01:24:23.899 --> 01:24:25.819
in. You sit down with her. You have the conversation.

01:24:25.899 --> 01:24:27.880
You basically say your daughter's a cunt. How

01:24:27.880 --> 01:24:30.640
dare you show up and defend her? And you're this

01:24:30.640 --> 01:24:32.420
is Taylor not being willing to show up and like

01:24:32.420 --> 01:24:34.739
fight her own battles. And now you're saying,

01:24:34.819 --> 01:24:36.939
oh, I haven't even pulled up the box. What are

01:24:36.939 --> 01:24:38.300
you going to do? Tell me what you're going to

01:24:38.300 --> 01:24:42.460
do. If you had anything to say, you had an hour

01:24:42.460 --> 01:24:45.760
to say it while you were talking to Leanne. Right.

01:24:45.880 --> 01:24:50.600
And. So Leanne leaves in tears and then all the

01:24:50.600 --> 01:24:53.479
women kind of rally around and like hug Leanne

01:24:53.479 --> 01:24:55.819
and say like, yeah, that was kind of fucked up

01:24:55.819 --> 01:24:59.659
and disrespectful. Yeah, that was a lot. Demi

01:24:59.659 --> 01:25:02.399
decides it's time to open the gift and it ends

01:25:02.399 --> 01:25:04.920
up being a PR box from Jay -Z Styles. Yes. Jay

01:25:04.920 --> 01:25:07.319
-Z had no idea what was in that box and I think

01:25:07.319 --> 01:25:10.680
that made it even better. I know, 100%. Was it

01:25:10.680 --> 01:25:13.500
petty? Yes, but this wouldn't have been a thing

01:25:13.500 --> 01:25:15.720
if you wouldn't have put yourself in that situation,

01:25:16.079 --> 01:25:20.220
you asshole. It was meant to be petty and you

01:25:20.220 --> 01:25:23.060
made it. You were petty first. You can't get

01:25:23.060 --> 01:25:24.899
mad at someone for being petty when you were

01:25:24.899 --> 01:25:26.779
petty with them. And P .S., you just screamed

01:25:26.779 --> 01:25:31.380
at their mom. Yes. So then Demi says we should

01:25:31.380 --> 01:25:32.899
all have a board meeting to figure out who's

01:25:32.899 --> 01:25:37.000
in and who's out of mom talk. Of course. Of course

01:25:37.000 --> 01:25:42.060
she does. Next scene, Macy goes to visit her

01:25:42.060 --> 01:25:46.859
former boyfriend, Eric's parents. This made me

01:25:46.859 --> 01:25:52.340
cry and cry and cry. I yeah. This is also when

01:25:52.340 --> 01:25:55.819
they visit the crash site, right? It comes later.

01:25:56.760 --> 01:26:03.239
So. We find out that Macy's been super open with

01:26:03.239 --> 01:26:08.060
her son Hudson about his dad and. Yeah, because

01:26:08.060 --> 01:26:10.079
Eric has passed away. For those who don't know

01:26:10.079 --> 01:26:11.800
what we're talking about. Right. Eric passed

01:26:11.800 --> 01:26:14.800
away in a car accident. And she tells Eric's

01:26:14.800 --> 01:26:17.640
mom that she wants to share this story in her

01:26:17.640 --> 01:26:20.180
book, but she feels like she hasn't fully grieved

01:26:20.180 --> 01:26:23.279
about losing him. And she shares that she hasn't

01:26:23.279 --> 01:26:26.939
even been to the crash site yet. Yeah. Eric's

01:26:26.939 --> 01:26:31.779
mom is incredibly sweet. And I feel like for

01:26:31.779 --> 01:26:35.699
a mom that lost her kid to be able to a come

01:26:35.699 --> 01:26:40.220
on camera. And B, talk about this and hold it

01:26:40.220 --> 01:26:43.600
together the way she did. That's pretty incredible.

01:26:44.020 --> 01:26:49.640
Yeah. And then she encourages Macy to to kind

01:26:49.640 --> 01:26:52.159
of work through the grieving and then to just

01:26:52.159 --> 01:26:54.300
live because that's what Eric would have wanted.

01:26:54.319 --> 01:26:57.960
I think everyone at some point says that to people

01:26:57.960 --> 01:27:01.899
that, you know, like. have lost someone but like

01:27:01.899 --> 01:27:05.060
yeah but you do have to face it because it's

01:27:05.060 --> 01:27:08.539
so easy to just like give up you know what I

01:27:08.539 --> 01:27:14.279
mean right yeah um Dakota picks Everett from

01:27:14.279 --> 01:27:17.659
Leanne's house and he says that being apart from

01:27:17.659 --> 01:27:21.539
Taylor is what's best right now great I'm glad

01:27:21.539 --> 01:27:23.279
you think that I'm glad you're telling us you

01:27:23.279 --> 01:27:29.840
think that yeah okay anyway anyway Yeah, so then

01:27:29.840 --> 01:27:36.020
we go to Jesse's salon. Jesse gives us an update

01:27:36.020 --> 01:27:40.319
about her thyroid. I didn't realize they have

01:27:40.319 --> 01:27:42.239
to like slit your throat open to do that surgery.

01:27:42.600 --> 01:27:44.979
Yeah, your thyroid's like right here. I don't

01:27:44.979 --> 01:27:48.020
know where I thought your thyroid was, but yeah,

01:27:49.039 --> 01:27:51.899
so luckily everything came back clean. Jesse's

01:27:51.899 --> 01:27:55.840
got a clean bill of health. Macy shows up to

01:27:55.840 --> 01:27:58.550
get extensions for her mom and. Jessie immediately

01:27:58.550 --> 01:28:01.789
knows exactly what kind of extensions her mom

01:28:01.789 --> 01:28:04.029
needs. Oh, the way she walked in and she was

01:28:04.029 --> 01:28:06.090
like, oh, well, your mom uses this and this.

01:28:06.229 --> 01:28:09.369
I thought that was so sweet. Like, it made me

01:28:09.369 --> 01:28:11.489
feel safe. You can tell that she, like, genuinely

01:28:11.489 --> 01:28:13.989
cares about hair. Like, she's passionate about

01:28:13.989 --> 01:28:17.350
it and she applies herself to it. I agree. And

01:28:17.350 --> 01:28:18.930
then they start to unpack the situation with

01:28:18.930 --> 01:28:21.890
Demi and they both agree that Demi's not being

01:28:21.890 --> 01:28:27.239
a good friend. Yeah. I think. Those are the two

01:28:27.239 --> 01:28:30.199
most mature people like in this whole show, Macy

01:28:30.199 --> 01:28:33.359
and Jesse. Million percent. Yes. And for them

01:28:33.359 --> 01:28:37.159
to sit down and be like, I can't really give

01:28:37.159 --> 01:28:40.800
any grace to Demi. Both of them speaks volumes

01:28:40.800 --> 01:28:44.319
like she's not being a good person. I agree.

01:28:45.380 --> 01:28:48.800
We cut to the mom talk meeting at Jesse's house.

01:28:49.220 --> 01:28:54.350
Mm hmm. All the girls show up and then before

01:28:54.350 --> 01:28:55.949
Taylor, but then Taylor shows up a little bit

01:28:55.949 --> 01:28:58.590
late. It is as awkward as anything has ever been.

01:28:58.909 --> 01:29:01.850
Yeah. I guess Taylor and Demi haven't talked

01:29:01.850 --> 01:29:06.210
since the Saints and Sinners party. And they

01:29:06.210 --> 01:29:12.630
all sit down, talk. And there's kind of a consensus

01:29:12.630 --> 01:29:16.090
that mom talk as an existing in the spirit in

01:29:16.090 --> 01:29:19.729
which it was originally intended. Yeah. Which.

01:29:20.920 --> 01:29:23.359
it's true and they're not having fun anymore

01:29:23.359 --> 01:29:25.960
and i think that's right i'm glad that they acknowledge

01:29:25.960 --> 01:29:29.000
that it was supposed to be a fun thing and they're

01:29:29.000 --> 01:29:32.340
not supposed to be posting tiktoks and uplifting

01:29:32.340 --> 01:29:35.079
each other i feel like if anything they became

01:29:35.079 --> 01:29:39.800
like too close for comfort where like they're

01:29:39.800 --> 01:29:42.460
having trouble uplifting each other partially

01:29:42.460 --> 01:29:47.149
because they are like best friends now or like

01:29:47.149 --> 01:29:50.390
at least acting like best friends right and it's

01:29:50.390 --> 01:29:54.810
like you can't like keep them at an arm's length

01:29:54.810 --> 01:29:58.250
when you when you're so close yeah it's not business

01:29:58.250 --> 01:30:03.189
anymore right and it's like it's obvious they're

01:30:03.189 --> 01:30:05.090
not having fun and so i'm glad that they were

01:30:05.090 --> 01:30:06.789
like aware enough to bring that to attention

01:30:06.789 --> 01:30:13.699
right um miranda is Like her name comes up and

01:30:13.699 --> 01:30:15.039
the girls agree to give her a little bit more

01:30:15.039 --> 01:30:17.260
time to become part of the group. I thought that

01:30:17.260 --> 01:30:19.560
was fair since she didn't really like have much

01:30:19.560 --> 01:30:22.659
of a storyline this season. We didn't hear from

01:30:22.659 --> 01:30:26.479
her that much. Sure. I don't know. I like Miranda.

01:30:26.859 --> 01:30:28.800
I like her too. I like her a lot. I would have

01:30:28.800 --> 01:30:30.640
been happy if they voted her and I just thought

01:30:30.640 --> 01:30:35.319
like, OK, that makes sense. Whitney comes up

01:30:35.319 --> 01:30:39.529
and. taylor's response actually shocked me a

01:30:39.529 --> 01:30:41.109
little bit because she said she felt like she

01:30:41.109 --> 01:30:43.909
was the only one that stuck up for her and yeah

01:30:43.909 --> 01:30:47.409
that has backfired on her so she's not voting

01:30:47.409 --> 01:30:52.850
yes but she's like whatever and the rest of the

01:30:52.850 --> 01:30:55.789
girls say okay whatever so majority rules and

01:30:56.439 --> 01:30:59.880
She's back in mom talk. Whitney has never been

01:30:59.880 --> 01:31:02.619
happier. She was over the moon. She was happier

01:31:02.619 --> 01:31:05.619
about this than she was about her baby. I'm telling

01:31:05.619 --> 01:31:09.760
you. She was thrilled. I was honestly like, this

01:31:09.760 --> 01:31:16.859
is mental illness. Taylor says that Demi shouldn't

01:31:16.859 --> 01:31:19.359
be part of the group, though. And Demi is as

01:31:19.359 --> 01:31:24.699
hateful as anyone has ever been to Taylor. brings

01:31:24.699 --> 01:31:30.260
the venom out it was this was ugly like ugly

01:31:30.260 --> 01:31:34.399
and this all comes back to the ultimatum that

01:31:34.399 --> 01:31:36.159
she gave the group where she said if taylor's

01:31:36.159 --> 01:31:38.619
in i'm out yeah she didn't think taylor was gonna

01:31:38.619 --> 01:31:41.600
find out about this which is so stupid how can

01:31:41.600 --> 01:31:43.539
you think taylor's not gonna find out you said

01:31:43.539 --> 01:31:46.460
that right sorry so demi calls taylor disgusting

01:31:46.460 --> 01:31:49.840
human being and when Not a single soul backs

01:31:49.840 --> 01:31:51.899
her up. Of course, she immediately starts crying.

01:31:52.039 --> 01:31:54.119
And of course, she throws herself on the cross

01:31:54.119 --> 01:31:56.340
talking about how how she's such a good friend.

01:31:56.520 --> 01:31:59.180
And she would be fighting to the death for any

01:31:59.180 --> 01:32:03.220
of the other girls. And which is so funny because

01:32:03.220 --> 01:32:04.939
you were just trying to get them off the show.

01:32:06.239 --> 01:32:08.460
She decides she's going to take some time to

01:32:08.460 --> 01:32:11.100
decide if staying in mom talk is the right thing

01:32:11.100 --> 01:32:13.159
to do. And she goes and she says, if the girl

01:32:13.159 --> 01:32:15.079
if you girls don't mind. And Taylor goes, yeah,

01:32:15.100 --> 01:32:25.260
we don't mind. I think when I watched this, I

01:32:25.260 --> 01:32:28.520
thought Demi was scared she was about to be voted

01:32:28.520 --> 01:32:31.300
out for the way that she was venomous all season

01:32:31.300 --> 01:32:34.180
long. So she removed herself before they could

01:32:34.180 --> 01:32:36.699
take a vote. I agree. That's what I think. You're

01:32:36.699 --> 01:32:43.560
100 percent right. And. The girls decide that

01:32:43.560 --> 01:32:45.300
in this moment, we're going to be better off

01:32:45.300 --> 01:32:48.279
without Demi because I think mom talk can finally

01:32:48.279 --> 01:32:51.619
start to heal. Sounds like she should just stay

01:32:51.619 --> 01:32:57.579
gone. I hope so. So the next day, Macy and Michaela

01:32:57.579 --> 01:33:03.840
go to Eric's crash site. And this was. This was

01:33:03.840 --> 01:33:09.689
obviously a big deal for Macy and. While I've

01:33:09.689 --> 01:33:12.390
had a hard time with Michaela this season, I

01:33:12.390 --> 01:33:15.210
think Michaela was a very, very, very good friend

01:33:15.210 --> 01:33:18.989
to her. I think the whole season Michaela was

01:33:18.989 --> 01:33:23.449
a good friend to Macy. Yes, but I think in this

01:33:23.449 --> 01:33:27.930
moment she showed the hell up. She did. She did.

01:33:28.029 --> 01:33:30.630
And this is a hard this had to be a hard thing

01:33:30.630 --> 01:33:33.149
because I've never been to the crash site where

01:33:33.149 --> 01:33:35.689
Jack's dad got in an accident. I've never been

01:33:35.689 --> 01:33:38.140
there. And, like, I can't imagine going there.

01:33:38.380 --> 01:33:42.699
Right. So, like, props to her for being so strong.

01:33:42.939 --> 01:33:45.460
Yes. I, again, cried and cried and cried and

01:33:45.460 --> 01:33:51.760
cried. But, like, yeah, I couldn't believe, like,

01:33:51.840 --> 01:33:54.939
that was such an emotional thing. And that's

01:33:54.939 --> 01:33:56.859
why I think we should read her book. I think

01:33:56.859 --> 01:33:58.380
I said this, like, a few episodes back. You'll

01:33:58.380 --> 01:34:01.680
get to the point where I think we should read

01:34:01.680 --> 01:34:04.340
her book because I can relate. And that's it.

01:34:05.400 --> 01:34:09.960
Absolutely. I've already pre -ordered it. I'll

01:34:09.960 --> 01:34:13.619
pre -order you a copy too. I'll get it. It's

01:34:13.619 --> 01:34:16.199
already too late. I'm doing it right now. I don't

01:34:16.199 --> 01:34:18.159
like e -books so I need a physical copy. I'll

01:34:18.159 --> 01:34:22.739
buy you a physical copy. Macy opens up about

01:34:22.739 --> 01:34:26.659
how she and Eric were in a fight when he passed

01:34:26.659 --> 01:34:30.060
and she actually found out about him passing

01:34:30.060 --> 01:34:32.579
from an Instagram post from one of his friends.

01:34:34.829 --> 01:34:37.630
I cannot imagine, like, being in a fight with

01:34:37.630 --> 01:34:42.470
someone and, like, you don't even know what you

01:34:42.470 --> 01:34:46.109
have left that's unsaid. And mind you, she didn't

01:34:46.109 --> 01:34:49.250
have to say this on the show. I think she is

01:34:49.250 --> 01:34:55.189
so strong for being that honest about her mindset

01:34:55.189 --> 01:34:59.569
and where she was when this happened. Like, wow.

01:35:01.130 --> 01:35:04.239
Yeah. I like the fact that she can admit to herself

01:35:04.239 --> 01:35:09.859
and to all of America that like they were in

01:35:09.859 --> 01:35:12.439
an argument when this happened. Like she didn't,

01:35:12.439 --> 01:35:15.100
no one made her say that. No one made her say

01:35:15.100 --> 01:35:17.680
anything. I really like respect her. Well, that's

01:35:17.680 --> 01:35:20.180
the thing is like. This is what I really appreciate

01:35:20.180 --> 01:35:22.300
about Macy is that she had the chance to rewrite

01:35:22.300 --> 01:35:24.619
a narrative here. She had the chance to say like,

01:35:24.699 --> 01:35:27.600
no, everything was fine. And she said, no, we

01:35:27.600 --> 01:35:29.159
were fighting. And I said some pretty horrific

01:35:29.159 --> 01:35:31.720
shit to him. And I regret what I said. Yeah.

01:35:32.340 --> 01:35:36.560
That's huge. Yeah. And then and again, Michaela

01:35:36.560 --> 01:35:40.399
comes out of the car with Macy and. And, you

01:35:40.399 --> 01:35:42.279
know, I feel about the whole religion thing,

01:35:42.380 --> 01:35:45.090
but like. And Michaela says, do you want me to

01:35:45.090 --> 01:35:46.989
say a little prayer? And like, I think in that

01:35:46.989 --> 01:35:49.670
moment, Macy really, really, really needed that.

01:35:50.090 --> 01:35:53.569
Yeah. And I'm going to cry about it now. Yeah,

01:35:53.569 --> 01:35:57.489
that was Macy was just or Michaela was a really

01:35:57.489 --> 01:36:00.390
good friend to Macy in that moment. One hundred

01:36:00.390 --> 01:36:03.369
percent. She was there for her in every capacity,

01:36:03.550 --> 01:36:06.630
but she also didn't like. She didn't make it

01:36:06.630 --> 01:36:09.409
more dramatic than it needed to be. She didn't

01:36:09.409 --> 01:36:11.890
drag it out. She didn't ask Macy a hundred times

01:36:11.890 --> 01:36:14.890
how she's feeling. She just let it be this. And

01:36:14.890 --> 01:36:18.189
she also said this is for Macy. This is for Macy

01:36:18.189 --> 01:36:20.510
to heal. And I am just here to support that.

01:36:20.590 --> 01:36:25.069
And that was huge. Yeah, I do think she's a really

01:36:25.069 --> 01:36:27.010
good friend to Macy. I think the problem with

01:36:27.010 --> 01:36:31.250
Michaela is that she's very. choosy with who

01:36:31.250 --> 01:36:33.829
she will be friends with. But when she's friends

01:36:33.829 --> 01:36:35.630
with someone, I think she's a pretty good friend.

01:36:35.829 --> 01:36:42.569
Yeah. So we come to the last scene of the season.

01:36:44.510 --> 01:36:48.430
Where Layla goes up to me, meet up with Marciano

01:36:48.430 --> 01:36:53.550
and Lord have mercy. You know exactly what I'm

01:36:53.550 --> 01:36:56.409
going to say about this man. Lord have mercy.

01:36:59.169 --> 01:37:02.029
marciano they get up to i guess his hotel room

01:37:02.029 --> 01:37:04.909
i don't know marciano pours himself a glass of

01:37:04.909 --> 01:37:08.689
straight tequila yeah a glass mind you not a

01:37:08.689 --> 01:37:12.670
double shot not a shot in a glass a full glass

01:37:12.670 --> 01:37:17.449
there are probably four or five shots just like

01:37:17.449 --> 01:37:20.569
in this cup no ice i mean it's a hardened alcoholic

01:37:20.569 --> 01:37:26.859
oh a hundred percent um Layla asked some questions

01:37:26.859 --> 01:37:29.859
about what went down between him and Demi. And

01:37:29.859 --> 01:37:32.479
Marciano says he thought it was a swinger situation

01:37:32.479 --> 01:37:36.140
and then he tried to kiss Demi. And then he tells

01:37:36.140 --> 01:37:40.420
a story about him and Jesse. And we get some

01:37:40.420 --> 01:37:45.340
context flashbacks about the rumors about them.

01:37:46.060 --> 01:37:49.449
Kissing in the bar. Yeah, Tom, Tom and Sir. And

01:37:49.449 --> 01:37:52.710
my God, Lisa Vanderpump, this is a field day

01:37:52.710 --> 01:37:55.789
for her. Every single one of her. She is thrilled.

01:37:56.710 --> 01:38:03.649
She is so happy. And then we we end on the cliffhanger

01:38:03.649 --> 01:38:07.789
where he says they fucked and it was a full blown

01:38:07.789 --> 01:38:12.069
affair. Yeah. And that's the end of the season,

01:38:12.130 --> 01:38:15.149
the end of the episode until the reunion. We'll

01:38:15.149 --> 01:38:19.399
talk about the reunion next time. But. Oh, whoa.

01:38:20.479 --> 01:38:24.819
I just it's just so out of left field. There's

01:38:24.819 --> 01:38:28.100
a lot there because like Jesse was my favorite

01:38:28.100 --> 01:38:31.880
all season. And so it's like I she's still my

01:38:31.880 --> 01:38:34.079
favorite. Her and Macy are still my favorites.

01:38:34.140 --> 01:38:36.640
Yeah. Number one. Number two. I don't know that

01:38:36.640 --> 01:38:40.359
I buy it. I don't know that I do either. We'll

01:38:40.359 --> 01:38:43.060
talk about it more because of the reunion. But

01:38:43.060 --> 01:38:47.210
like. I just don't know who's telling the truth

01:38:47.210 --> 01:38:51.250
at this point. No, I don't either. That's the

01:38:51.250 --> 01:38:54.289
end of the season. Yep, that's the end of the

01:38:54.289 --> 01:38:57.630
season of The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Dear
