ruined engagements and the secret life of Arby's coupons
This week on Bestie Approved, Travis and Emma are feeling the love and the drama. Emma shares a pregnancy update (hello, baby avocado! 🥑), but also gets candid about body image struggles and the weird early bump zone where everyone thinks you just went to a buffet. Meanwhile, Travis has a bone to pick with tandem bikes and Valentine’s Day (spoiler: he hates both). The besties lovingly argue their way through the chaos, of course.
Then things get juicy.
A viral TikTok meltdown over an engagement ring email spirals into a deep dive on wedding culture, toxic planning, and why “my honey, my sweetheart” is a red flag.
In this week’s Secret Lives of Mormon Wives recap, the Halloween party explodes, the Chippendales cause tension, and someone definitely didn’t tell the truth (Jen, we’re looking at you 👀).
Plus, we shout out our favorite sponsor-in-our-heads, Arby’s (sponsor us, please) and reminisce about vape punch cards (ew).
Whether you’re here for the mess, the friendship, or the fertility updates, we’ve got you. Now hit play and ride that tandem bike straight into the chaos.
00:00:13.740 --> 00:00:17.179
Hi, I'm Travis. And I'm Emma. What's the last
00:00:17.179 --> 00:00:20.239
song you listened to? Unfortunately, the truth
00:00:20.239 --> 00:00:24.100
is it was Don't by Bryson Tiller. If I'm being
00:00:24.100 --> 00:00:25.559
a thousand percent honest, I don't even know
00:00:25.559 --> 00:00:28.500
if I remember that song. Oh, well, we can't get
00:00:28.500 --> 00:00:31.019
copyrighted if I sing it. So it's the one that
00:00:31.019 --> 00:00:33.880
like has the huge, like a super long buildup.
00:00:33.880 --> 00:00:36.780
And then he goes, don't. And then it's like,
00:00:36.920 --> 00:00:43.079
don't play with it. Don't be dishonest. Yes.
00:00:43.159 --> 00:00:49.020
Yeah. Yes. I do remember this. My last song was
00:00:49.020 --> 00:00:54.859
Attention by Kesha Slater and Rose Gray. So much
00:00:54.859 --> 00:00:58.600
more cunt than mine. It is. And what I have to
00:00:58.600 --> 00:01:03.000
believe happened was Kesha went into a lab and
00:01:03.000 --> 00:01:05.739
said, I know what the gays need this summer.
00:01:05.840 --> 00:01:07.540
And then they just built this song in the lab.
00:01:07.700 --> 00:01:12.989
The idea of Kesha and Slater knowing it. knowing
00:01:12.989 --> 00:01:16.730
each other is so incredible to me. I have a feeling
00:01:16.730 --> 00:01:19.530
they're, like, you know how you're pinned at
00:01:19.530 --> 00:01:21.849
the top of my iMessage? Yeah. I have a feeling
00:01:21.849 --> 00:01:24.090
they're pinned at the top of each other's. Like,
00:01:24.189 --> 00:01:29.069
they text daily, for sure. We have a lot this
00:01:29.069 --> 00:01:34.329
week, also. Where do you want to start? Yeah.
00:01:37.790 --> 00:01:42.390
Okay, well, let's just say... Last week we had
00:01:42.390 --> 00:01:46.849
listeners from all over the globe. We did. All
00:01:46.849 --> 00:01:50.790
over. And we've cracked 100 listeners. Finally.
00:01:50.890 --> 00:01:55.790
We've made it. So this in the grand scheme of
00:01:55.790 --> 00:01:59.430
podcasting means so little, but we cracked 100
00:01:59.430 --> 00:02:02.609
listeners. And like there's this like where I
00:02:02.609 --> 00:02:05.469
upload the podcast every week. It like gives
00:02:05.469 --> 00:02:07.870
you analytics of like where the. listens are
00:02:07.870 --> 00:02:10.750
coming from. So 90 % of our listeners are in
00:02:10.750 --> 00:02:12.930
the United States, like scattered across the
00:02:12.930 --> 00:02:17.729
country. Um, but we have listeners in the United
00:02:17.729 --> 00:02:22.370
Kingdom, Malaysia, Russia. Um, we have listeners
00:02:22.370 --> 00:02:25.569
in Ireland, Switzerland, Australia, Finland,
00:02:25.729 --> 00:02:30.090
Egypt, Germany, and the Netherlands. Like how
00:02:30.090 --> 00:02:37.419
wild is that? My Deutsch people. Yeah, it's beautiful.
00:02:37.639 --> 00:02:40.419
I love that. We're going on a world tour. Listen,
00:02:40.780 --> 00:02:46.819
I'm ready. Yeah, tomorrow. Starting tomorrow.
00:02:47.199 --> 00:02:52.060
Maybe when we get 200 listeners. My pregnancy
00:02:52.060 --> 00:02:55.280
update is also my complaint. So however you want
00:02:55.280 --> 00:03:00.090
to do that. You tell me. Go buck wild. am now
00:03:00.090 --> 00:03:03.610
well tomorrow i'll be 16 weeks pregnant that
00:03:03.610 --> 00:03:07.210
is wild i know which makes the baby the size
00:03:07.210 --> 00:03:13.270
of an avocado and like five inches long um which
00:03:13.270 --> 00:03:16.030
is beautiful and amazing and his ears are in
00:03:16.030 --> 00:03:18.430
the right place and he has eyeballs it's it's
00:03:18.430 --> 00:03:24.250
great his bones have ossified or whatever beautiful
00:03:26.189 --> 00:03:30.509
we are not ever shitting on the miracle of pregnancy
00:03:30.509 --> 00:03:36.289
however what is getting a little old to me is
00:03:36.289 --> 00:03:40.770
like okay so like regardless of how you want
00:03:40.770 --> 00:03:43.569
to put it if you don't start your pregnancy with
00:03:43.569 --> 00:03:47.050
a flat tummy it looks like you're just getting
00:03:47.050 --> 00:03:49.729
bigger for a while before you like round out
00:03:50.680 --> 00:03:52.759
which is beautiful and great. You need to have
00:03:52.759 --> 00:03:56.080
space for your baby. But like anytime I try to
00:03:56.080 --> 00:03:58.520
complain about that, people are like, you're
00:03:58.520 --> 00:04:02.479
pregnant. It's the miracle of childbirth. And
00:04:02.479 --> 00:04:05.759
I'm like, OK, I don't look pregnant, really.
00:04:06.120 --> 00:04:10.219
I look like I ate a large dinner and a large
00:04:10.219 --> 00:04:14.360
breakfast and a large lunch. So I don't know.
00:04:15.180 --> 00:04:17.420
That's my complaint. Because there really is
00:04:17.420 --> 00:04:19.819
no winning side. Because if someone were to call
00:04:19.819 --> 00:04:24.720
me fat, I would be like, I'm pregnant! But when
00:04:24.720 --> 00:04:30.079
I complain about feeling fat, there's also, like,
00:04:30.160 --> 00:04:32.339
nothing I can do about it. You know what I mean?
00:04:32.879 --> 00:04:35.079
I don't know how to explain that. I hear what
00:04:35.079 --> 00:04:38.800
you're saying. You're in a... not in a weird
00:04:38.800 --> 00:04:40.500
space but like I think you're in a weird head
00:04:40.500 --> 00:04:42.860
space with where your body's at and like how
00:04:42.860 --> 00:04:47.639
it's changing yeah and I I feel like body dysmorphia
00:04:47.639 --> 00:04:50.579
is pretty common in pregnancy oh it's gotta be
00:04:50.579 --> 00:04:53.160
yeah especially for people like me like my weight
00:04:53.160 --> 00:04:57.199
has fluctuated a lot in my adulthood and so it's
00:04:57.199 --> 00:05:00.050
like Like, I don't know. It's like triggering
00:05:00.050 --> 00:05:03.470
almost to just to like get bigger because it's
00:05:03.470 --> 00:05:05.430
not just your stomach either. Like everything
00:05:05.430 --> 00:05:08.870
is bigger. Yeah. And it's beautiful and amazing.
00:05:08.970 --> 00:05:11.269
And it will result in the most beautiful baby
00:05:11.269 --> 00:05:15.829
and all of that. Yes. But in the time being,
00:05:16.009 --> 00:05:20.209
I'm like, wow. A couple of things. One, I don't
00:05:20.209 --> 00:05:24.629
think you look big like you look like a normal
00:05:24.629 --> 00:05:28.509
size for someone who is. I don't know what a
00:05:28.509 --> 00:05:31.029
normal size is for someone who's 16 weeks pregnant.
00:05:31.149 --> 00:05:33.290
But if you said to me, this is what normal size
00:05:33.290 --> 00:05:36.290
looks like for 16 weeks, I would wholeheartedly
00:05:36.290 --> 00:05:38.769
believe that. Yeah. And that's the other thing.
00:05:39.089 --> 00:05:42.730
Like, I used to be on the heavier side. And so
00:05:42.730 --> 00:05:44.949
I know it can also be triggering to hear someone
00:05:44.949 --> 00:05:51.209
my size, like pretty normal size, be like, I
00:05:51.209 --> 00:05:54.860
feel fat. Like, that's so triggering. At the
00:05:54.860 --> 00:05:57.120
same time, this is my experience. That's fair.
00:05:57.319 --> 00:05:58.779
I mean, there's nothing wrong with that being
00:05:58.779 --> 00:06:00.300
your experience. I mean, if you're being honest
00:06:00.300 --> 00:06:05.540
about it. And I also think I carried Jack really
00:06:05.540 --> 00:06:08.660
low and I'm also carrying this baby really low.
00:06:09.199 --> 00:06:13.360
And so as opposed to what? So like instead of
00:06:13.360 --> 00:06:17.990
it, instead of my belly button. let's say like
00:06:17.990 --> 00:06:21.750
going straight out forward, it's underneath my
00:06:21.750 --> 00:06:25.310
belly button that is getting bigger, which is
00:06:25.310 --> 00:06:30.209
a very triggering area for me, like area of my
00:06:30.209 --> 00:06:32.509
body. I don't know how to explain that. So like
00:06:32.509 --> 00:06:36.490
early in pregnancy, the baby is like in your
00:06:36.490 --> 00:06:41.110
pelvis. And so it's not like the middle of your
00:06:41.110 --> 00:06:43.709
stomach is like popping out and you're a perfect,
00:06:43.730 --> 00:06:46.800
beautiful watermelon. Sure. It's. the bottom
00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:49.800
of your stomach that kind of pops out first,
00:06:49.980 --> 00:06:52.160
especially for me. That's just how it's been.
00:06:52.259 --> 00:06:56.579
OK. And so it's like it's giving big fupa, you
00:06:56.579 --> 00:07:00.040
know? No, it's not. I promise it's not. Yeah.
00:07:00.879 --> 00:07:02.720
You know, I'd be honest with you. Like, if you
00:07:02.720 --> 00:07:05.199
ask me if it was, it's not. I promise. Yeah.
00:07:05.300 --> 00:07:07.439
It's like a it's like a body dysmorphia thing.
00:07:07.480 --> 00:07:10.389
But like even. I can't show you all, but I'm
00:07:10.389 --> 00:07:13.069
going to show Travis on my app. It kind of shows
00:07:13.069 --> 00:07:17.550
where a baby is and it like makes sense for how
00:07:17.550 --> 00:07:20.569
I'm feeling. Do you see what I mean? It's like
00:07:20.569 --> 00:07:27.689
lower than you think. Yeah, I. I guess like knowing
00:07:27.689 --> 00:07:32.610
that the baby comes out of your vagina, that
00:07:32.610 --> 00:07:34.970
makes sense that it would be there, but like.
00:07:35.729 --> 00:07:37.870
When you see a pregnant girl, you're like, oh,
00:07:37.990 --> 00:07:40.230
the baby's, like, up in the middle of her belly.
00:07:40.329 --> 00:07:42.810
Right. But that's not, like, true, especially
00:07:42.810 --> 00:07:44.810
when the baby's still small. But I also think
00:07:44.810 --> 00:07:46.990
a lot of that is, like, it pushing the rest of
00:07:46.990 --> 00:07:49.310
your body outwards. Like, because the baby, like,
00:07:49.329 --> 00:07:51.970
sits under all that, right? Yeah, your intestines,
00:07:52.069 --> 00:07:55.790
like, move around. And your liver does, I think.
00:07:56.069 --> 00:07:57.610
There are a bunch of things that, like, move
00:07:57.610 --> 00:08:00.569
around. And you're out of breath because there's
00:08:00.569 --> 00:08:02.350
more pressure on your diaphragm. On your lungs,
00:08:02.350 --> 00:08:09.620
yeah. Mm -hmm. Yeah. I don't. I just like that
00:08:09.620 --> 00:08:13.060
I'm not going to ever experience that. I know.
00:08:13.139 --> 00:08:17.600
It must be beautiful to be a male. It is. Yeah.
00:08:19.579 --> 00:08:24.540
Anyway. Anyway. So I guess I'll complain. And
00:08:24.540 --> 00:08:28.639
my complaint had to be changed this week. We're
00:08:28.639 --> 00:08:29.899
still going to talk about what I was going to
00:08:29.899 --> 00:08:33.509
complain about. I have a problem this week with
00:08:33.509 --> 00:08:37.429
people that ride tandem bikes. Who are you doing
00:08:37.429 --> 00:08:41.149
that for? Who is that for? Why? Why are we doing
00:08:41.149 --> 00:08:45.149
that? I would argue that you're putting on a
00:08:45.149 --> 00:08:47.450
show for the world that doesn't need to be seen.
00:08:48.790 --> 00:08:52.350
I hear that, I do. I feel like it's the same
00:08:52.350 --> 00:08:56.269
way I feel about Valentine's Day. Yes, exactly
00:08:56.269 --> 00:08:58.370
the same. Yeah, we disagree about Valentine's
00:08:58.370 --> 00:09:01.889
Day, too. I love Valentine's Day, and I love
00:09:01.889 --> 00:09:05.950
tandem bikes, and I love love. I love love. I
00:09:05.950 --> 00:09:10.659
love... people showing their love outwardly i
00:09:10.659 --> 00:09:14.559
think it's beautiful but complain away so i was
00:09:14.559 --> 00:09:17.120
pulling out of my driveway this morning to come
00:09:17.120 --> 00:09:19.879
to your house and these people were just riding
00:09:19.879 --> 00:09:21.980
by on a tandem bike you're swerving all over
00:09:21.980 --> 00:09:26.169
the road you can't be happy i don't know there
00:09:26.169 --> 00:09:29.009
was a couple in my old neighborhood growing up
00:09:29.009 --> 00:09:32.169
that always rode around on their tandem bike
00:09:32.169 --> 00:09:36.509
and they looked so in love and happy and they
00:09:36.509 --> 00:09:39.090
did not swerve all over the road so maybe it's
00:09:39.090 --> 00:09:41.350
a test of your love if you can like keep the
00:09:41.350 --> 00:09:44.490
tandem maybe okay so maybe these people weren't
00:09:44.490 --> 00:09:46.610
doing it right but i can definitively tell you
00:09:46.610 --> 00:09:49.169
unless it's with you i will never ride a tandem
00:09:49.169 --> 00:09:52.029
bike i don't want to i don't want to do that
00:09:52.029 --> 00:09:54.029
i'm not into it i hate it i hate everything about
00:09:54.029 --> 00:09:57.460
it I think it's cute. Have I ever ridden on a
00:09:57.460 --> 00:10:00.139
tandem bike? No. So I'm sure there are factors
00:10:00.139 --> 00:10:03.659
at play that I am not aware of. But for the most
00:10:03.659 --> 00:10:07.019
part, I think they're cute. OK, I won't take
00:10:07.019 --> 00:10:09.220
that away from you. It's a show of affection.
00:10:10.139 --> 00:10:13.139
And dear listener, what you must know is that
00:10:13.139 --> 00:10:15.419
there are not a lot of things Emma and I disagree
00:10:15.419 --> 00:10:25.210
on. Emma could turn against. Just about anything
00:10:25.210 --> 00:10:30.669
and turn with her, I will. I will. I will 100.
00:10:31.710 --> 00:10:35.009
I'm sorry, 99 .5 % of the time be on her side.
00:10:35.269 --> 00:10:37.950
This is just one of those takes where we're not
00:10:37.950 --> 00:10:40.450
on the same page. And that's okay. I think people
00:10:40.450 --> 00:10:42.990
mostly agree with you, though. I would say I'm
00:10:42.990 --> 00:10:45.549
probably the... In the minority? Yeah. Good.
00:10:45.970 --> 00:10:48.929
100%. Because I know I am about Valentine's Day.
00:10:49.070 --> 00:10:50.529
I hate... Because everywhere I've ever gone in
00:10:50.529 --> 00:10:52.450
my life, they're like, I hate Valentine's Day.
00:10:52.549 --> 00:10:56.470
Anti -Valentine's Day party. It's not even that
00:10:56.470 --> 00:10:58.389
I want to be anti -Valentine's Day. It's like...
00:10:58.700 --> 00:11:01.480
I want it to be a non thing. I get like when
00:11:01.480 --> 00:11:03.000
you're in a relationship and it's your first
00:11:03.000 --> 00:11:04.940
Valentine's day, I'll give you that. That's fine.
00:11:05.419 --> 00:11:09.779
I've I'll stop you right there. I love Valentine's
00:11:09.779 --> 00:11:12.279
day. Even when I'm single, even when I'm single,
00:11:12.419 --> 00:11:16.779
even if I'm bitter about being single, I still
00:11:16.779 --> 00:11:18.519
love Valentine's day because there are still
00:11:18.519 --> 00:11:21.620
people I love. I just celebrate my friends and
00:11:21.620 --> 00:11:24.340
my family. I love you so much. Here's some candy.
00:11:25.840 --> 00:11:28.120
I love it. We just did that four minutes ago
00:11:28.120 --> 00:11:30.419
in your candy bowl. It wasn't Valentine's Day.
00:11:30.539 --> 00:11:32.559
Yeah, but they weren't heart -shaped and it wasn't
00:11:32.559 --> 00:11:37.019
for Valentine's Day. Okay, and here's the thing
00:11:37.019 --> 00:11:39.659
I have about the argument because I know what
00:11:39.659 --> 00:11:41.960
people are thinking. The, if you love someone,
00:11:42.100 --> 00:11:44.039
you should show them you love them every single
00:11:44.039 --> 00:11:46.299
day and Valentine's Day shouldn't be special.
00:11:46.419 --> 00:11:48.340
Ah, ah, ah, ah. Do you have that argument for
00:11:48.340 --> 00:11:50.840
Mother's Day? If you love your mother. I certainly
00:11:50.840 --> 00:11:54.820
don't. You should. Well, yeah. Father's Day then.
00:11:55.480 --> 00:11:57.759
You appreciate your father every day of the year.
00:11:57.879 --> 00:12:00.879
Yes. Right. But do you not tell him Happy Father's
00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:04.639
Day? Okay. That's what I thought. It's the same
00:12:04.639 --> 00:12:07.659
idea for Valentine's Day. Just because you love
00:12:07.659 --> 00:12:09.740
someone all the time doesn't mean you can't have
00:12:09.740 --> 00:12:12.480
one special day where you show it a little extra.
00:12:12.799 --> 00:12:16.389
Okay. We'll revisit this. In February, when we
00:12:16.389 --> 00:12:19.730
do our Valentine's Day special. And you can have
00:12:19.730 --> 00:12:24.370
this all you want. I want you to live in love.
00:12:24.389 --> 00:12:29.850
Just know, I hate everything about Valentine's
00:12:29.850 --> 00:12:32.570
Day. I hate the consumerism of it. I hate the...
00:12:32.570 --> 00:12:36.309
That is true. I hate the... You have to be in
00:12:36.309 --> 00:12:38.590
a relationship for Valentine's Day. I hate the...
00:12:39.259 --> 00:12:41.519
If you want to go out to dinner and you're not
00:12:41.519 --> 00:12:43.139
thinking to yourself, oh, God, it's going to
00:12:43.139 --> 00:12:47.019
be February 14th. You have to make reservations
00:12:47.019 --> 00:12:51.559
months in advance. I don't like the fact that
00:12:51.559 --> 00:12:55.179
it's like it was invented by Hallmark and that
00:12:55.179 --> 00:12:57.679
like people feel like they have to spend hundreds
00:12:57.679 --> 00:13:02.659
of dollars and plan for months for it. That you're
00:13:02.659 --> 00:13:04.960
kind of losing the spirit for me a little bit.
00:13:05.360 --> 00:13:09.519
But mostly I love Valentine's Day. That, yeah.
00:13:09.840 --> 00:13:15.480
I wish people put that same level of energy into
00:13:15.480 --> 00:13:18.059
like their anniversaries and like that's where
00:13:18.059 --> 00:13:20.679
the energy for Valentine's Day went. That's what
00:13:20.679 --> 00:13:23.899
I wish. Do you know what we've done? Because
00:13:23.899 --> 00:13:28.080
I love Valentine's Day. My anniversary is on
00:13:28.080 --> 00:13:31.740
Valentine's Day. I'm going to kill myself. I
00:13:31.740 --> 00:13:33.870
love that. Valentine's Day. How did I not know
00:13:33.870 --> 00:13:36.230
that? I don't know. Because it doesn't really
00:13:36.230 --> 00:13:38.809
matter. Because my birthday is February 1st.
00:13:39.070 --> 00:13:43.909
And then Kenny's is February 11th. And then Valentine's
00:13:43.909 --> 00:13:47.389
Day is on the 14th. So we just make it one big
00:13:47.389 --> 00:13:50.169
celebration. That's like when we went to Mexico,
00:13:50.250 --> 00:13:52.269
it was for that. When we went on a cruise, it
00:13:52.269 --> 00:13:55.610
was for that. Got it. We always do at least like
00:13:55.610 --> 00:13:58.509
a fancy dinner or something. Yeah. I love that.
00:13:59.049 --> 00:14:11.000
We call it B -Day V -Day. It's very cute. I don't
00:14:11.000 --> 00:14:16.720
want to go on anymore. So speaking of love, I
00:14:16.720 --> 00:14:18.620
sent him a tech talk earlier. It's been making
00:14:18.620 --> 00:14:20.860
its way around tech talk, and I've seen a couple
00:14:20.860 --> 00:14:24.100
of reactions to it. And I'm curious how you feel
00:14:24.100 --> 00:14:25.960
about this and how listener you feel about this.
00:14:27.179 --> 00:14:31.549
This girl went with her. boyfriend, fiance, whatever
00:14:31.549 --> 00:14:33.190
we're going to call him, because we're going
00:14:33.190 --> 00:14:35.570
to get into what he's called in the video that
00:14:35.570 --> 00:14:39.509
is awful. Like, I would argue that I hate it.
00:14:39.870 --> 00:14:43.149
It's an old fashioned thing. I hate it. I hate
00:14:43.149 --> 00:14:47.190
it, too. I really do. I really do. So this girl
00:14:47.190 --> 00:14:49.769
goes and she says, I went with my honey, my sweetheart
00:14:49.769 --> 00:14:56.710
to the jewelry store to pick out my wedding ring
00:14:56.710 --> 00:15:00.960
or my engagement ring. And they design it. They
00:15:00.960 --> 00:15:02.779
do the whole song and dance. And they say to
00:15:02.779 --> 00:15:07.820
her, do you want to get the warranty on it? She
00:15:07.820 --> 00:15:09.639
says, yeah, of course we want to get the warranty
00:15:09.639 --> 00:15:12.559
on it. No big deal. They say, OK, great. We're
00:15:12.559 --> 00:15:15.720
going to send you emails every six months to
00:15:15.720 --> 00:15:19.820
remind you to clean the ring and to like come
00:15:19.820 --> 00:15:23.679
in and like get the bracket things or the prongs
00:15:23.679 --> 00:15:29.210
like serviced or whatever. She gives them her
00:15:29.210 --> 00:15:34.549
email to put on file for that. I guess as a result,
00:15:34.629 --> 00:15:38.950
she also started getting the order confirmations
00:15:38.950 --> 00:15:41.970
saying, hey, the ring has been ordered. Hey,
00:15:42.230 --> 00:15:46.009
the ring is like the final payment was made for
00:15:46.009 --> 00:15:50.210
the ring. And then in the I guess in one or both
00:15:50.210 --> 00:15:53.809
of the emails that she got, she received pictures
00:15:53.809 --> 00:15:58.419
of the final product of the ring. that she helped
00:15:58.419 --> 00:16:03.399
design right like she picked it out and she told
00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:06.440
them what she wanted if anything she should be
00:16:06.440 --> 00:16:09.080
glad she got those pictures we'll get into it
00:16:09.080 --> 00:16:13.039
well so she's on here on tiktok saying they ruined
00:16:13.039 --> 00:16:15.059
the surprise they took the element of surprise
00:16:15.059 --> 00:16:18.419
away from it and i'm like you you knew you were
00:16:18.419 --> 00:16:21.860
getting engaged so here's how i feel about this
00:16:21.860 --> 00:16:26.379
woman right number one Like you said, she knows
00:16:26.379 --> 00:16:28.759
she's getting engaged. Like she already knew
00:16:28.759 --> 00:16:34.299
that. Number two, if you designed a ring yourself
00:16:34.299 --> 00:16:37.820
and you had specifications for how you wanted
00:16:37.820 --> 00:16:41.139
it to look, what shape diamond, all of that,
00:16:41.320 --> 00:16:45.039
wouldn't you want pictures to make sure your
00:16:45.039 --> 00:16:48.419
vision has come to life? And number three, if
00:16:48.419 --> 00:16:50.559
you didn't want anything to be spoiled, if you
00:16:50.559 --> 00:16:54.549
didn't want these emails. Give them your man's
00:16:54.549 --> 00:16:58.669
email address. So that and I guess I didn't even
00:16:58.669 --> 00:17:01.509
think about like the picture piece of it. My
00:17:01.509 --> 00:17:05.670
thing is, is like. You knew you were going to
00:17:05.670 --> 00:17:09.410
the jewelry store. You knew you were planning
00:17:09.410 --> 00:17:13.769
a wedding. You knew at some point at some point
00:17:13.769 --> 00:17:19.609
between. Going to the jeweler and your wedding
00:17:19.609 --> 00:17:26.009
date, you would be proposed to. Right. So. It
00:17:26.009 --> 00:17:29.890
feels like she's looking for a reason to be mad.
00:17:30.150 --> 00:17:32.849
It's it's it feels like attention seeking behavior
00:17:32.849 --> 00:17:35.250
on the Internet to take it one step further.
00:17:36.269 --> 00:17:41.089
She goes on to say no amount of money is going
00:17:41.089 --> 00:17:43.210
to make us feel better. OK, then what what are
00:17:43.210 --> 00:17:45.210
you doing here? Tell me what you're doing right
00:17:45.210 --> 00:17:48.069
here on the Internet where you've turned off
00:17:48.069 --> 00:17:51.990
Stitch's duets and comments to your TikTok. That's
00:17:51.990 --> 00:17:53.990
because a bunch of people called her out on her
00:17:53.990 --> 00:17:57.230
own bullshit. Right. Everyone has a right to
00:17:57.230 --> 00:17:59.210
feel exactly how they want to feel about any
00:17:59.210 --> 00:18:02.450
situation. But I think about the person who's
00:18:02.450 --> 00:18:05.650
wedding you and I talk about a lot. And I know
00:18:05.650 --> 00:18:08.849
this is something that she would have done where
00:18:08.849 --> 00:18:11.849
she was an absolute demon monster the entire
00:18:11.849 --> 00:18:13.730
time we were getting ready for her wedding. And
00:18:13.730 --> 00:18:16.930
listener, one day we will open up about the Las
00:18:16.930 --> 00:18:22.059
Vegas bachelorette party and the. that led up
00:18:22.059 --> 00:18:25.539
to a wedding where that was probably one of the
00:18:25.539 --> 00:18:27.940
last times I spoke to someone who I considered
00:18:27.940 --> 00:18:33.039
to be one of my best friends. But it comes to
00:18:33.039 --> 00:18:36.299
the point with this individual who posted this
00:18:36.299 --> 00:18:40.400
TikTok where I wish she just would have said,
00:18:40.440 --> 00:18:44.279
God, I overreacted to that. At least I'm getting
00:18:44.279 --> 00:18:45.880
married. At least I have someone that loves me,
00:18:45.920 --> 00:18:47.960
my honey, my sweetheart. And let me just tell
00:18:47.960 --> 00:18:50.490
you something else. When someone says my honey,
00:18:50.509 --> 00:18:52.069
my sweetheart, when referring to their significant
00:18:52.069 --> 00:18:55.710
other, it makes me like I have a visceral reaction
00:18:55.710 --> 00:18:58.470
to it. I hate it so much. It just kind of gives
00:18:58.470 --> 00:19:01.809
me the ick. But I also feel like a more honest
00:19:01.809 --> 00:19:06.069
version of that video is her coming to terms
00:19:06.069 --> 00:19:11.210
with the fact that she regrets being part of
00:19:11.210 --> 00:19:14.650
the planning process for her engagement. And
00:19:14.650 --> 00:19:17.190
that I completely understand because I feel like
00:19:17.190 --> 00:19:21.470
she's projecting feelings she has about not feeling
00:19:21.470 --> 00:19:24.390
surprised when she got engaged. Oh, I see what
00:19:24.390 --> 00:19:28.009
you're saying. OK. And really, it's because she
00:19:28.009 --> 00:19:31.509
planned everything and went with her honey to
00:19:31.509 --> 00:19:35.289
do everything. And she's projecting it on the
00:19:35.289 --> 00:19:39.089
jeweler like they could have done something or
00:19:39.089 --> 00:19:43.230
like they didn't warn her. But it's like. It's
00:19:43.230 --> 00:19:47.390
OK to just go on TikTok and be like, hey, ladies,
00:19:47.450 --> 00:19:50.369
don't recommend designing your own engagement
00:19:50.369 --> 00:19:53.109
ring if you're like me. Yeah, that's a whole
00:19:53.109 --> 00:19:55.529
different thing. But the other piece of it, too,
00:19:55.609 --> 00:19:59.470
is like she gets on there and she's like. We've
00:19:59.470 --> 00:20:02.470
been waiting. So the couple had been together
00:20:02.470 --> 00:20:04.289
for seven years and she's like, I've been waiting
00:20:04.289 --> 00:20:06.950
seven years for that. We've been waiting seven
00:20:06.950 --> 00:20:09.930
years for this. And I've been waiting 27 years
00:20:09.930 --> 00:20:12.349
for this. And I'm like, oh, get off the cross,
00:20:12.670 --> 00:20:15.730
Mary. Like, what are we doing? I do understand.
00:20:16.750 --> 00:20:21.069
As little girls, we are trained to look forward
00:20:21.069 --> 00:20:24.349
to our wedding. That's the long and short of
00:20:24.349 --> 00:20:27.980
it. And so it does feel like. You've been waiting
00:20:27.980 --> 00:20:33.140
27 years for this. I get it. But like you gave
00:20:33.140 --> 00:20:36.339
the jeweler your email address. Jewelers are
00:20:36.339 --> 00:20:41.000
not new to the engagement process. So I guarantee
00:20:41.000 --> 00:20:43.940
she didn't get an email saying your ring has
00:20:43.940 --> 00:20:46.619
been picked up. Your engagement is happening
00:20:46.619 --> 00:20:49.880
on this day. Wear white, bitch. Like that's not
00:20:49.880 --> 00:20:54.849
what they did. I believe the story has been embellished.
00:20:54.910 --> 00:20:56.630
One of two things has happened. The story has
00:20:56.630 --> 00:21:02.630
been embellished a little bit to make it seem
00:21:02.630 --> 00:21:05.569
like it was more of a ruin to the surprise than
00:21:05.569 --> 00:21:10.250
anything else. Or B, she put her email in every
00:21:10.250 --> 00:21:15.730
box that could receive an email so she would
00:21:15.730 --> 00:21:17.509
have complete control over this process. And
00:21:17.509 --> 00:21:20.609
I'm willing to believe it was number two. Mm
00:21:20.609 --> 00:21:23.240
-hmm. Yeah. So that's where we're at. Because
00:21:23.240 --> 00:21:28.200
logically, if Kenny takes me to design a ring,
00:21:28.380 --> 00:21:31.359
he's like, you're picky. I want you to like it.
00:21:31.519 --> 00:21:35.500
I really want you to design it. I am never giving
00:21:35.500 --> 00:21:38.460
that jeweler my contact information. No. If you
00:21:38.460 --> 00:21:41.740
need payment, if it needs cleaned, if you want
00:21:41.740 --> 00:21:45.079
a review, talk to my man. Yes. He's buying it.
00:21:45.160 --> 00:21:49.740
I agree. So I feel like maybe she just got. A
00:21:49.740 --> 00:21:53.039
little type A over the ring situation. And now
00:21:53.039 --> 00:21:55.819
she regrets it. And it would be one thing, like
00:21:55.819 --> 00:21:58.200
I said, for her to hop on Twitter and say, I
00:21:58.200 --> 00:22:00.019
regret doing that. Yeah, but that's not what
00:22:00.019 --> 00:22:03.720
she did. She said the jeweler, the jeweler. Well,
00:22:03.799 --> 00:22:06.099
and that's it. And she's like on there like I'm
00:22:06.099 --> 00:22:08.539
scheduling meetings with the district manager.
00:22:08.640 --> 00:22:13.309
I wish the fuck I would. I wish the fuck I would.
00:22:13.509 --> 00:22:17.809
Imagine being a Karen about the people who made
00:22:17.809 --> 00:22:20.950
your wedding ring like to those people. Also,
00:22:20.990 --> 00:22:24.549
imagine going into a place of business where
00:22:24.549 --> 00:22:27.829
ostensibly they did everything that they were
00:22:27.829 --> 00:22:32.670
supposed to do. And they sent you an order confirmation
00:22:32.670 --> 00:22:36.990
to an email that you gave them and you want to
00:22:36.990 --> 00:22:40.849
speak to a district manager. No. No, no, no.
00:22:40.970 --> 00:22:45.289
I'm exhausted by that. Yeah. I'm exhausted by
00:22:45.289 --> 00:22:48.549
that. I really can't imagine behaving that way.
00:22:49.549 --> 00:22:52.150
It's this is exhausting. That's the long and
00:22:52.150 --> 00:22:54.150
short of it. This girl is exhausting. And like
00:22:54.150 --> 00:22:58.849
even watching the tick tock, we know I can think
00:22:58.849 --> 00:23:01.470
off the top of my head three girls that are exactly
00:23:01.470 --> 00:23:05.269
like this. Yeah. And I can definitively tell
00:23:05.269 --> 00:23:08.609
you I would be exhausted hearing this story with
00:23:08.609 --> 00:23:14.049
them. I have one other thing before we jump into
00:23:14.049 --> 00:23:19.430
reality roundup. Yeah, it's it's it's a push
00:23:19.430 --> 00:23:23.049
notification I got from the Arby's app. Arby's,
00:23:23.069 --> 00:23:26.710
please sponsor Bestie because you need to. Arby's,
00:23:26.710 --> 00:23:28.750
you were Bestie approved and you're about to
00:23:28.750 --> 00:23:34.839
hear why we. Emma and I have a tradition that
00:23:34.839 --> 00:23:38.339
we have formed over the last six podcast episodes
00:23:38.339 --> 00:23:42.720
where I will drive to her house and I'll pick
00:23:42.720 --> 00:23:46.019
up Arby's on the way there. Every time I get
00:23:46.019 --> 00:23:48.900
a push notification from the Arby's app last
00:23:48.900 --> 00:23:51.619
week saying, congratulations, you spent twenty
00:23:51.619 --> 00:23:53.519
five dollars on your last order. Here's five
00:23:53.519 --> 00:24:02.880
dollars off your next three orders. I said, thanks
00:24:02.880 --> 00:24:07.680
for repping us, fatty. Please. Oh, my God. I
00:24:07.680 --> 00:24:09.779
said, thanks, Diva. I really, really appreciate
00:24:09.779 --> 00:24:15.660
that. Arby's, please sponsor us. Oh, my God.
00:24:15.720 --> 00:24:19.779
It's like when I used to vape, they would have
00:24:19.779 --> 00:24:22.440
loyalty cards. Shut the fuck up. No, they didn't.
00:24:22.460 --> 00:24:27.099
Yeah. Oh, yes, they did. This feels like an addiction.
00:24:27.740 --> 00:24:32.740
Oh, it. It very much was. Okay. It is. I'm not
00:24:32.740 --> 00:24:35.460
vaping anymore, but I still feel like it's an
00:24:35.460 --> 00:24:39.980
addiction. Anyways, yeah, every time I got to
00:24:39.980 --> 00:24:42.819
the end of that card and they were like, free
00:24:42.819 --> 00:24:46.500
vape, I was like, oh, my God, I'm a crackhead.
00:24:47.579 --> 00:24:53.119
Wow. Yeah, that was a dark, dark time. If anything,
00:24:53.259 --> 00:24:56.599
this baby has already given me a gift. The gift.
00:24:56.740 --> 00:24:59.200
For your lungs. Yeah. A gift of a clean lung.
00:24:59.400 --> 00:25:04.180
Being free of the vape. Do you remember that
00:25:04.180 --> 00:25:06.519
TikTok that was like, let's talk about this here
00:25:06.519 --> 00:25:11.779
epidemic that is this crack pipe? Yes. And here's
00:25:11.779 --> 00:25:14.680
the thing, I agree with all the videos about
00:25:14.680 --> 00:25:18.140
vaping and all the videos that are like, you're
00:25:18.140 --> 00:25:22.579
going to get cancer. You will get cancer. I hear
00:25:22.579 --> 00:25:25.819
you. It's a disgusting, disgusting thing. But
00:25:25.819 --> 00:25:30.940
like, it is also so hard to stop. If you need
00:25:30.940 --> 00:25:36.339
more information about that, go watch Tana Mongeau's
00:25:36.339 --> 00:25:40.160
most recent TikToks and podcast episodes and
00:25:40.160 --> 00:25:42.579
everything. Oh, does she get into it? Yeah. She's
00:25:42.579 --> 00:25:45.099
like quitting the vape is harder than quitting
00:25:45.099 --> 00:25:47.900
drinking. It's harder than quitting opiates.
00:25:47.900 --> 00:25:50.819
It's harder than quitting anything else that
00:25:50.819 --> 00:25:53.559
she's done. I'm sure it's just as bad as quitting
00:25:53.559 --> 00:25:57.579
smoking. Oh. Yeah. Oh, yeah. Well, it's the same.
00:25:57.619 --> 00:26:00.119
It's kind of the same thing. It's nicotine. So
00:26:00.119 --> 00:26:02.359
it's like the same drug. And I would argue it's
00:26:02.359 --> 00:26:04.839
harder because like because it's more accessible.
00:26:05.119 --> 00:26:07.559
Yeah. A cigarette's like you have to go outside
00:26:07.559 --> 00:26:10.140
and like it's a whole thing. A vape, you can
00:26:10.140 --> 00:26:12.920
just pick that thing up anywhere, which is half
00:26:12.920 --> 00:26:15.000
the struggle. Yeah. Because it's like it would
00:26:15.000 --> 00:26:17.880
be so easy for me to just pick up a vape right
00:26:17.880 --> 00:26:21.359
now. And for me, I feel like being pregnant made
00:26:21.359 --> 00:26:24.019
it. A whole lot easier to quit because it's like
00:26:24.019 --> 00:26:28.019
not for me. It's for a baby. But oh, my God,
00:26:28.220 --> 00:26:31.640
it is so hard. Are you ready for reality roundup?
00:26:31.680 --> 00:26:34.539
I am. Before we jump into secret lives and Mormon
00:26:34.539 --> 00:26:38.559
wives, I want to talk about one Miss Larsa Pippen.
00:26:40.730 --> 00:26:44.250
I'm so over Larissa Pippen. I've been over her
00:26:44.250 --> 00:26:49.369
since 2012 when she was originally on Real Housewives
00:26:49.369 --> 00:26:52.009
of Miami. I just saw a tweet the other day before
00:26:52.009 --> 00:26:56.369
we get to your thing that was like, the trend
00:26:56.369 --> 00:26:58.509
now is not to look like a Kardashian. It's not
00:26:58.509 --> 00:27:01.509
to have an artificial hourglass figure and fillers
00:27:01.509 --> 00:27:04.710
until you pop. And the tweet I saw was a quote
00:27:04.710 --> 00:27:07.369
tweet of that saying, someone tell Larissa Pippen.
00:27:08.880 --> 00:27:11.160
But actually, please don't tell Larson Pippen
00:27:11.160 --> 00:27:16.400
that because she is unrecognizable from who she
00:27:16.400 --> 00:27:18.740
was. And you will never find someone that is
00:27:18.740 --> 00:27:21.180
more supportive of elective surgeries than I
00:27:21.180 --> 00:27:26.660
am. You have you have seen me go to Dr. Turkle's
00:27:26.660 --> 00:27:29.660
office in Carmel just to have consultations just
00:27:29.660 --> 00:27:34.680
for funsies. Oh, yeah. I'm super pro doing whatever
00:27:34.680 --> 00:27:38.019
you want to do to your body. Yes. To a point.
00:27:38.730 --> 00:27:40.970
OK, because there's also someone else I want
00:27:40.970 --> 00:27:43.029
to bring up on this point, and then we'll get
00:27:43.029 --> 00:27:47.329
back to Larsa Pippen. We just started Casa Amor
00:27:47.329 --> 00:27:52.390
in Love Island. Exactly. This woman is 21 years
00:27:52.390 --> 00:27:59.200
old and she looks. 35 easily because she is just
00:27:59.200 --> 00:28:02.160
filled to the brim with filler. She has a body
00:28:02.160 --> 00:28:04.420
you would not believe. I am sure she's in the
00:28:04.420 --> 00:28:07.160
gym every single day. She's never had a carb
00:28:07.160 --> 00:28:09.940
in her life. But then she goes and fills her
00:28:09.940 --> 00:28:12.799
whole entire face with filler. And it's like
00:28:12.799 --> 00:28:17.160
no one's even looking at your body. No one is
00:28:17.160 --> 00:28:21.359
like it is hard to tell what you look like. I
00:28:21.359 --> 00:28:24.180
have a hard time with the filler because if you
00:28:24.180 --> 00:28:28.019
if you look at. The drag queens from RuPaul's
00:28:28.019 --> 00:28:30.660
Drag Race who it's it's always the all stars
00:28:30.660 --> 00:28:33.839
makeover that they do. So they have their original
00:28:33.839 --> 00:28:38.079
seasons of Drag Race and then they get a Groupon
00:28:38.079 --> 00:28:43.900
to to a two for one filler special. And it is
00:28:43.900 --> 00:28:48.630
Juvederm and. It's it's a lot. There's a lot
00:28:48.630 --> 00:28:51.170
happening there. And I think the main problem
00:28:51.170 --> 00:28:54.329
is people doing it too early in life. But sure.
00:28:54.569 --> 00:28:57.369
But that's the thing is like you were overloaded.
00:28:57.369 --> 00:29:00.450
You were filled to the brim. And like it's it's
00:29:00.450 --> 00:29:04.210
the lips. It's the cheeks. It's the who. And
00:29:04.210 --> 00:29:07.009
that's fine. Like get get the filler. But like
00:29:07.009 --> 00:29:09.190
you were unrecognizable from who you were. Bringing
00:29:09.190 --> 00:29:11.750
me back to Larsa Pippen. If you look at side
00:29:11.750 --> 00:29:15.259
by sides of seasons. One and two of The Real
00:29:15.259 --> 00:29:18.779
Housewives of Miami and current seasons of The
00:29:18.779 --> 00:29:20.079
Real Housewives of Miami from where it's come
00:29:20.079 --> 00:29:23.059
back. She is you. You couldn't tell me that's
00:29:23.059 --> 00:29:26.240
the same person. Right. I know you want to know
00:29:26.240 --> 00:29:29.240
who else is kind of going outside. Have you seen
00:29:29.240 --> 00:29:33.640
Adriana Lima? Yeah, that's hard. Why did you
00:29:33.640 --> 00:29:37.799
do that? Why did you do that? Yeah, it's so hard
00:29:37.799 --> 00:29:41.720
to watch because it's like. We've lost the idea
00:29:41.720 --> 00:29:44.599
of aging gracefully and we're trying to just
00:29:44.599 --> 00:29:48.440
not age at all. And that's not, that's not okay.
00:29:48.579 --> 00:29:53.160
That's not. But Bravo Insider today sent out,
00:29:53.160 --> 00:29:56.039
or I'm sorry, yesterday sent out a text to the
00:29:56.039 --> 00:29:59.579
Bravo Insider community saying, from public breakups
00:29:59.579 --> 00:30:01.940
to friendship feuds, Larsa Pippen's been through
00:30:01.940 --> 00:30:04.500
it all during her time on Real Houses of Miami.
00:30:05.529 --> 00:30:07.970
Now she's serving up advice exclusively for Bravo
00:30:07.970 --> 00:30:10.589
Insiders, and she's ready to answer your questions.
00:30:10.690 --> 00:30:14.109
Hit the link to send yours in. Do you want to
00:30:14.109 --> 00:30:17.710
know who I'd rather take advice from? RFK Jr.
00:30:17.970 --> 00:30:21.289
about my health. I would rather take advice from
00:30:21.289 --> 00:30:23.470
that snake in the Garden of Eden in the Bible.
00:30:23.769 --> 00:30:27.910
I would rather take advice from Dakota about
00:30:27.910 --> 00:30:32.140
how to. Manage a healthy relationship. Oh, yeah.
00:30:32.299 --> 00:30:34.980
I would rather take advice from Jack about how
00:30:34.980 --> 00:30:38.640
to remain quiet during a podcast sometimes. Right.
00:30:38.940 --> 00:30:41.900
Tet Hanks about how to keep your public image
00:30:41.900 --> 00:30:46.299
up. Yes. Yeah. Oh, my God. I'd rather. Who is
00:30:46.299 --> 00:30:49.019
looking for her advice? I'd rather take advice
00:30:49.019 --> 00:30:53.420
from Z -Way about how to. Have a take that people
00:30:53.420 --> 00:30:56.720
don't find funny. Yeah. About how to not be charming
00:30:56.720 --> 00:30:59.500
and wonderful. I've lost the plot a little bit
00:30:59.500 --> 00:31:02.000
here, but like you see what I'm saying? I just.
00:31:03.099 --> 00:31:06.039
And what it feels like Bravo is trying to do,
00:31:06.099 --> 00:31:07.880
and they've done this with a couple of other
00:31:07.880 --> 00:31:11.440
housewives. Ramona is one that I'm thinking of
00:31:11.440 --> 00:31:14.460
where they they push her just a little too hard.
00:31:14.579 --> 00:31:18.519
They push her to like. Because they've doubled
00:31:18.519 --> 00:31:20.000
down on her for the next season. And they're
00:31:20.000 --> 00:31:21.440
like, we're stuck with her. We got to do something
00:31:21.440 --> 00:31:26.259
with her. So I do not like Larsa Pippen. When
00:31:26.259 --> 00:31:28.319
we start recapping The Real Housewives of Miami,
00:31:28.500 --> 00:31:31.819
you will see how viscerally I react to her. I
00:31:31.819 --> 00:31:34.200
cannot stand Larsa Pippen. You know who I would
00:31:34.200 --> 00:31:38.470
text for advice? Giselle. 100 % I would take
00:31:38.470 --> 00:31:40.609
advice from Giselle. I would love advice from
00:31:40.609 --> 00:31:41.690
Giselle. I've talked about her on the podcast
00:31:41.690 --> 00:31:45.630
already. I love her so much. If they sent me
00:31:45.630 --> 00:31:47.690
a text and they were like, do you have a question
00:31:47.690 --> 00:31:50.410
for Giselle Bryant? I would immediately text
00:31:50.410 --> 00:31:55.190
them back. One last one. I would rather take
00:31:55.190 --> 00:31:57.670
advice from Juan Dixon about how to be faithful
00:31:57.670 --> 00:32:04.279
to a beautiful woman. Poor Robin. Poor Robin.
00:32:04.279 --> 00:32:07.940
I love her. And he's so hot. Like, I get it.
00:32:08.079 --> 00:32:13.339
But, girl. So let's jump in. Yeah. Secret Lives
00:32:13.339 --> 00:32:16.500
of Mormon Wives. We're recapping episodes three
00:32:16.500 --> 00:32:22.079
and four today. Episode three. The Book of Retribution.
00:32:22.279 --> 00:32:25.200
We open up at the Halloween party where we left
00:32:25.200 --> 00:32:27.299
off. Where Taylor is screaming at Chase for being
00:32:27.299 --> 00:32:30.559
a liar. Which he deserves. While the guys are
00:32:30.559 --> 00:32:32.779
upstairs getting ready for their Chippendales
00:32:32.779 --> 00:32:37.400
dance. Chase deserves to get yelled at. Chase
00:32:37.400 --> 00:32:40.960
deserves everything that comes to him. He can't
00:32:40.960 --> 00:32:46.880
own shit. And I thought it was so funny, actually,
00:32:46.920 --> 00:32:49.380
the like difference in vibes when they would
00:32:49.380 --> 00:32:51.500
like cut to upstairs when they were like practicing
00:32:51.500 --> 00:32:54.200
with their Chippendales guy versus Taylor being
00:32:54.200 --> 00:32:58.890
like, you disgusting. You trash. You're stupid.
00:32:59.069 --> 00:33:03.240
You're trash. I loved it. I loved it. That's
00:33:03.240 --> 00:33:06.119
excellent television. Miranda runs over to comfort
00:33:06.119 --> 00:33:08.440
Chase's new girlfriend, which I honestly, I think
00:33:08.440 --> 00:33:11.539
it's impressive. And I think I like her because
00:33:11.539 --> 00:33:14.779
that has to take some level of security and confidence
00:33:14.779 --> 00:33:17.700
in yourself to be like, oh, I'm going to go comfort
00:33:17.700 --> 00:33:21.319
this girl. That girl needs help. And I felt so
00:33:21.319 --> 00:33:25.359
bad for his girlfriend because that's such an
00:33:25.359 --> 00:33:27.279
awkward position to be in where like everyone
00:33:27.279 --> 00:33:30.099
is yelling at your man. You've stepped out publicly
00:33:30.099 --> 00:33:34.710
now like you're on. on tv with him and now you
00:33:34.710 --> 00:33:36.829
just you're talking about his affairs and his
00:33:36.829 --> 00:33:39.309
swinging and also his ex -wife is there and like
00:33:39.309 --> 00:33:42.970
it's just oh i can't imagine being in her position
00:33:42.970 --> 00:33:47.910
like that is so i feel bad for her and i feel
00:33:47.910 --> 00:33:49.890
like this girl is probably a really sweet girl
00:33:49.890 --> 00:33:53.609
this is i feel like this is chase's mo is he
00:33:53.609 --> 00:33:58.700
finds a very pretty girl probably fresh out of
00:33:58.700 --> 00:34:02.240
the church and says, I'm going to get her. I
00:34:02.240 --> 00:34:04.819
have a feeling he's finding his women at church.
00:34:04.880 --> 00:34:09.639
Oh, probably. So Layla, who dated Chase for like
00:34:09.639 --> 00:34:12.400
a month, goes, goes to him and like says, no
00:34:12.400 --> 00:34:14.179
one wants to hear. Fuck you. This is not what
00:34:14.179 --> 00:34:16.960
we're. This is your trash, basically. And then
00:34:16.960 --> 00:34:19.179
he's like, don't don't tell me what to do. And
00:34:19.179 --> 00:34:20.760
then she goes, go talk shit about this on your
00:34:20.760 --> 00:34:22.679
podcast. And he goes, don't make fun of my podcast.
00:34:25.230 --> 00:34:28.389
I loved that part. I thought that was so funny.
00:34:28.590 --> 00:34:32.610
That was so funny. I didn't know he had a podcast,
00:34:32.670 --> 00:34:37.110
but I love that for him. I mean, he doesn't deserve
00:34:37.110 --> 00:34:39.929
one, but here we are. Here we are on a podcast.
00:34:40.309 --> 00:34:44.610
Yeah. I feel like Taylor doesn't have to get
00:34:44.610 --> 00:34:48.690
ready because she stays ready to fight. I wouldn't
00:34:48.690 --> 00:34:52.210
call Taylor a hothead because I really do feel
00:34:52.210 --> 00:34:56.320
like. she just gets really worked up. Like I
00:34:56.320 --> 00:34:58.500
can almost commiserate with her where it's like
00:34:58.500 --> 00:35:02.000
someone says something and then you just can't
00:35:02.000 --> 00:35:05.059
let it go. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I agree. And you
00:35:05.059 --> 00:35:08.760
and I are both that way though. Yeah. Well, and,
00:35:08.900 --> 00:35:11.239
and I get where she's coming from because she
00:35:11.239 --> 00:35:14.599
goes on to say that she just wanted Dakota to
00:35:14.599 --> 00:35:18.590
be on her side. I. Could not be more on her side
00:35:18.590 --> 00:35:21.389
about that. I feel the same way. Yes. However
00:35:21.389 --> 00:35:24.909
you feel about the Taylor and Chase thing, Dakota
00:35:24.909 --> 00:35:27.869
has been allegedly trying to win her over this
00:35:27.869 --> 00:35:31.809
whole time and is talking to Chase and immediately
00:35:31.809 --> 00:35:34.250
takes Chase's side. Yes. Over Taylor. I agree.
00:35:34.789 --> 00:35:39.369
Come on. I just don't get it. I don't get it.
00:35:41.050 --> 00:35:43.630
Miranda goes up to Chase and this is where I
00:35:43.630 --> 00:35:45.610
really, really started to appreciate Miranda
00:35:45.610 --> 00:35:47.690
because she goes up and she goes, we're not doing
00:35:47.690 --> 00:35:51.670
this. Get out. Get out. And I was like, oh, I
00:35:51.670 --> 00:35:55.150
like her. OK. And then if you look at Chase's
00:35:55.150 --> 00:35:58.210
new girlfriend, she's she either just looks cold
00:35:58.210 --> 00:36:00.889
or uncomfortable. Like she's like doubled over
00:36:00.889 --> 00:36:04.510
in that little dress and she's just like cold.
00:36:05.419 --> 00:36:09.340
I felt bad for her again. I did. Cause it's like,
00:36:09.380 --> 00:36:11.800
what do you do? You're on TV. You don't even
00:36:11.800 --> 00:36:15.380
really like, this is your boyfriend, but like,
00:36:15.380 --> 00:36:21.099
it's hard, but she immediately storms out and
00:36:21.099 --> 00:36:22.679
she goes, I hate him. I hate him. I hate him.
00:36:22.739 --> 00:36:26.599
And I was like, I get it. Yeah. And I feel like
00:36:26.599 --> 00:36:29.000
Miranda knows his antics. And so she was like,
00:36:29.059 --> 00:36:31.260
no, you're not going to do this here. No. Yeah.
00:36:31.320 --> 00:36:34.539
But I, I bet she's been through it. A million
00:36:34.539 --> 00:36:38.119
times. Every single day, probably. And I'm so
00:36:38.119 --> 00:36:41.000
glad they got a divorce. She deserves so much
00:36:41.000 --> 00:36:44.320
better than that trash man. I agree. So then
00:36:44.320 --> 00:36:50.579
Chase goes after, what's her name? Kate. Yeah.
00:36:50.659 --> 00:36:52.579
The new girlfriend's Kate. Chase goes after Kate
00:36:52.579 --> 00:36:58.780
and Demi's poking the bear a little bit and Chase
00:36:58.780 --> 00:37:02.800
walks by Demi and I guess pokes her. I don't,
00:37:02.800 --> 00:37:06.050
I don't. Here's what happened. I remember it
00:37:06.050 --> 00:37:10.329
clear as day. Demi goes, where's your girlfriend,
00:37:10.469 --> 00:37:12.429
Chase? You need to go after your girlfriend.
00:37:12.690 --> 00:37:16.150
Yes. He comes up, kind of touches her waist and
00:37:16.150 --> 00:37:20.329
goes, oh, well, where's your husband? Type of
00:37:20.329 --> 00:37:25.119
thing. Okay. I don't... Okay. The way she blew
00:37:25.119 --> 00:37:28.920
it out of proportion was crazy. Well... Because
00:37:28.920 --> 00:37:31.019
she goes upstairs, right? Yeah. And she goes,
00:37:31.119 --> 00:37:35.059
Brett, Chase touched me. No, that's not what
00:37:35.059 --> 00:37:38.559
Demi said. Demi runs upstairs and goes, Chase
00:37:38.559 --> 00:37:42.260
put his hands on me. Oh. She knew what she was
00:37:42.260 --> 00:37:45.980
doing. She knew exactly... However, yeah, I think
00:37:45.980 --> 00:37:48.579
it was... Yeah, you're right. Put his hands on
00:37:48.579 --> 00:37:54.469
me. She... Blew that so far out of proportion.
00:37:55.489 --> 00:38:01.349
It's on video. He didn't grab her ass. He didn't
00:38:01.349 --> 00:38:06.710
pull her hair. He simply touched her as he passed
00:38:06.710 --> 00:38:12.050
through a tight space. What? OK, I I think there's
00:38:12.050 --> 00:38:14.230
a place to be met in the middle here where I
00:38:14.230 --> 00:38:17.150
think he was doing it in an incredibly condescending
00:38:17.150 --> 00:38:22.099
way. I think he was like, where's your man? 100%.
00:38:22.099 --> 00:38:25.280
But I think him saying, where's your man and
00:38:25.280 --> 00:38:28.440
touching her to get by were two separate things.
00:38:28.880 --> 00:38:32.579
I agree. I don't think he like grabbed her and
00:38:32.579 --> 00:38:35.000
caressed her and then said, where's your man?
00:38:35.320 --> 00:38:39.699
I think he was getting past and then responded
00:38:39.699 --> 00:38:43.039
to her snarky thing by saying his snarky thing.
00:38:43.139 --> 00:38:47.619
Yes. And I hate Chase, so I hate that it sounds
00:38:47.619 --> 00:38:50.460
like I'm defending him, but God damn, Demi. I
00:38:50.460 --> 00:38:53.960
agree. So Demi runs upstairs. Chase put his hands
00:38:53.960 --> 00:38:57.079
on me. Chase put his hands on me. Brett does
00:38:57.079 --> 00:38:59.960
what Brett is supposed to do. Yeah, Brett's not
00:38:59.960 --> 00:39:01.980
in the wrong for that at all, to be so clear.
00:39:02.400 --> 00:39:04.760
Brett moves into action and says, I'm going to
00:39:04.760 --> 00:39:09.119
kill someone. I love a man who's a man. I do
00:39:09.119 --> 00:39:13.539
too, actually. And he runs outside in his little
00:39:13.539 --> 00:39:17.619
Chippendales outfit. And he's screaming at Chase.
00:39:18.099 --> 00:39:20.820
Chase didn't know what he was getting into. And
00:39:20.820 --> 00:39:24.019
he is scared for his life in this moment. You
00:39:24.019 --> 00:39:27.360
can see it happening. Yeah. I feel like he genuinely
00:39:27.360 --> 00:39:30.300
didn't know what the fuck Brett was on about,
00:39:30.420 --> 00:39:32.920
like for the first four or five seconds. And
00:39:32.920 --> 00:39:35.199
then he put it together and was like, oh, what
00:39:35.199 --> 00:39:38.739
the fuck? Yeah. You know, and I would be scared
00:39:38.739 --> 00:39:41.800
of Brett, too. Oh, 100%. Can we talk about how
00:39:41.800 --> 00:39:44.599
hot it is that he's out there in a little Speedo
00:39:44.599 --> 00:39:48.000
about to kill a man? They were in Speedos. They
00:39:48.000 --> 00:39:50.820
were in little pants. Oh. I thought they were
00:39:50.820 --> 00:39:54.579
in, like, little tiny... No. Oh. No. They were
00:39:54.579 --> 00:39:56.320
in pants. I thought it was hot that he was in
00:39:56.320 --> 00:39:59.659
his little Chippendales suit about to kill somebody.
00:39:59.900 --> 00:40:03.320
I thought that was so hot. Oh, 100%. But, like,
00:40:03.320 --> 00:40:06.940
also... That level of rage, I wasn't expecting.
00:40:07.059 --> 00:40:12.099
But what I also didn't expect was Jordan. When
00:40:12.099 --> 00:40:16.059
Chase goes up to start apologizing to Demi, Jordan
00:40:16.059 --> 00:40:19.179
comes up and goes, take ownership, take owner,
00:40:19.320 --> 00:40:21.360
like just screaming. And I was like, what are
00:40:21.360 --> 00:40:24.360
you doing? Who are you being right now? And I
00:40:24.360 --> 00:40:26.539
have a feeling this is the reason the cops get
00:40:26.539 --> 00:40:31.190
called. It's all the screaming. I'm sure they're
00:40:31.190 --> 00:40:33.489
in one of those richy, rich, rich neighborhoods.
00:40:33.730 --> 00:40:35.829
And someone was in their house and they were
00:40:35.829 --> 00:40:38.409
like, my property taxes are too high for this.
00:40:38.550 --> 00:40:45.670
And they called the police. Yes. So the cops
00:40:45.670 --> 00:40:48.849
show up. Jesse goes outside and literally says
00:40:48.849 --> 00:40:51.739
to the cop. Have you ever seen Secret Life? That
00:40:51.739 --> 00:40:56.780
is the moment I was dying for you to see. That's
00:40:56.780 --> 00:40:59.980
the funniest shit I've ever seen. Because she
00:40:59.980 --> 00:41:02.739
says that would have been the easiest way to
00:41:02.739 --> 00:41:05.019
explain it to you. No, but like that's the thing
00:41:05.019 --> 00:41:07.280
is like if the cop would have been like, oh,
00:41:07.380 --> 00:41:10.079
got it. Yeah, it would have cleared everything
00:41:10.079 --> 00:41:12.960
up immediately. But the way she said it, like,
00:41:12.960 --> 00:41:15.760
have you ever seen it? Like, obviously, that's
00:41:15.760 --> 00:41:20.650
what's happening. Like, Jesus Christ. That was
00:41:20.650 --> 00:41:23.349
the funniest thing she could have said. The funniest
00:41:23.349 --> 00:41:27.989
thing. And also, like, not to dick ride her,
00:41:28.230 --> 00:41:33.230
but I feel like it's a fair question because
00:41:33.230 --> 00:41:35.349
then you, because you also have to explain why
00:41:35.349 --> 00:41:38.090
there are so many cameras there and vans and.
00:41:38.170 --> 00:41:40.909
Oh, sure. You know, like, that's not a typical
00:41:40.909 --> 00:41:43.590
thing either. Like, you don't want them to think
00:41:43.590 --> 00:41:46.670
you're filming an orgy. You know what I mean?
00:41:46.730 --> 00:41:50.489
Well, that, but like, also. Behind the scenes
00:41:50.489 --> 00:41:54.389
of it, the cops show up. The Secret Lives of
00:41:54.389 --> 00:41:56.050
Mormon Lives and Real Housewives of Salt Lake
00:41:56.050 --> 00:41:58.829
City are the two shows that are, like, being
00:41:58.829 --> 00:42:03.730
filmed in Salt Lake City right now. And the cops
00:42:03.730 --> 00:42:07.789
have to know, like, some of this stuff is going
00:42:07.789 --> 00:42:11.369
to get played up. They also signed releases to
00:42:11.369 --> 00:42:14.929
be on the TV. Oh, yeah, because their faces weren't
00:42:14.929 --> 00:42:19.809
blurred. Yeah. So, like, let's. They knew before
00:42:19.809 --> 00:42:22.730
they got to her front door that this was for
00:42:22.730 --> 00:42:28.110
TV. I just think because they it's two men fighting
00:42:28.110 --> 00:42:30.929
each other. They have to be like, oh, sure. Please,
00:42:30.929 --> 00:42:35.210
nobody get injured. Please, nobody die. Please.
00:42:36.619 --> 00:42:40.420
Like, I get it. Yeah, I do, to some extent. And
00:42:40.420 --> 00:42:42.320
it's not like they came inside the house and
00:42:42.320 --> 00:42:46.500
were like, they left. So the cops leave. Chippendales
00:42:46.500 --> 00:42:49.219
part two happens and it's the most uncomfortable
00:42:49.219 --> 00:42:52.800
thing anyone has ever had to sit through. So
00:42:52.800 --> 00:42:56.300
awkward. Just Zach with full on venom in his
00:42:56.300 --> 00:42:59.960
eyes the whole time. And he was sad. Yeah, like
00:42:59.960 --> 00:43:02.619
you could. He was sad and he was mad. Like there
00:43:02.619 --> 00:43:04.579
were two emotions happening there. And that was
00:43:04.579 --> 00:43:08.159
very clear. I had a problem. I had a very serious
00:43:08.159 --> 00:43:10.300
problem with Demi saying this is a chance for
00:43:10.300 --> 00:43:13.760
Zach to redeem himself. I know. I didn't like
00:43:13.760 --> 00:43:17.099
that at all. I know. And this is where I turn
00:43:17.099 --> 00:43:22.460
on Demi. Oh, I already told you she's the villain.
00:43:22.619 --> 00:43:25.260
Yeah. She's the villain this season for absolute
00:43:25.260 --> 00:43:30.110
sure. And it. Only gets worse. I would also like
00:43:30.110 --> 00:43:32.130
to talk about Demi and Brett's relationship at
00:43:32.130 --> 00:43:34.989
some point. I don't know if now's the time. OK.
00:43:37.090 --> 00:43:40.289
I haven't seen anything yet that would tell me
00:43:40.289 --> 00:43:43.010
something's wrong, but I have a feeling it's
00:43:43.010 --> 00:43:47.110
coming fast and quick. He knew her when she was
00:43:47.110 --> 00:43:51.989
10 years old and he was in his late 20s. Oh,
00:43:51.989 --> 00:43:59.739
so. Yeah. I don't know where to put that. Yeah.
00:44:00.840 --> 00:44:04.960
Makes me think that he's less hot. He's physically
00:44:04.960 --> 00:44:08.039
so hot. Would I ever want to get to know him?
00:44:08.159 --> 00:44:11.320
No. Was he involved with the church? Probably.
00:44:11.679 --> 00:44:16.679
I know he's a Mormon. Okay. So I'm going to tell
00:44:16.679 --> 00:44:18.079
you right now, you'd be shocked at how often
00:44:18.079 --> 00:44:21.420
that happens in the church. Oh, I. I've had my
00:44:21.420 --> 00:44:24.019
fair share of youth pastors flirt with me in
00:44:24.019 --> 00:44:26.659
my teenagerdom. No, but I'm saying, like, people
00:44:26.659 --> 00:44:30.059
that know children from a very, very, very young
00:44:30.059 --> 00:44:32.019
age and then they end up together, like, and
00:44:32.019 --> 00:44:35.440
the man's much older. Like, it's fairly common
00:44:35.440 --> 00:44:38.039
in the Nazarene church, too. It's so gross. It's
00:44:38.039 --> 00:44:41.119
gross. So the Chippendales dance is happening.
00:44:42.449 --> 00:44:45.110
Jordan, bless his perfect little heart, seemed
00:44:45.110 --> 00:44:48.030
like he was actually like earnestly trying. Yeah,
00:44:48.090 --> 00:44:51.090
I thought he was so cute. Like his whole thing
00:44:51.090 --> 00:44:53.409
was so cute. And I and I think they all were
00:44:53.409 --> 00:44:59.650
very like still respectful. You know, like they
00:44:59.650 --> 00:45:02.090
weren't like real Chippendales where they were
00:45:02.090 --> 00:45:05.670
like grinding up on her and like making out with
00:45:05.670 --> 00:45:07.710
her like they didn't do that. The problem that
00:45:07.710 --> 00:45:11.570
I have. And this is how it should have been handled.
00:45:12.610 --> 00:45:21.730
Brett should have brought Demi up. The real Chippendales
00:45:21.730 --> 00:45:25.690
dancer should have brought Taylor up. Well, no,
00:45:25.769 --> 00:45:27.829
Layla's not. Taylor's the only single one. Taylor
00:45:27.829 --> 00:45:31.010
and Miranda. He brought one of them up. And then
00:45:31.010 --> 00:45:36.050
Jordan should have brought Jessie up. Dance with
00:45:36.050 --> 00:45:39.219
them. Why doesn't... I wish they would have asked
00:45:39.219 --> 00:45:41.739
Zach to be a part of it. I feel like that would
00:45:41.739 --> 00:45:45.679
have fixed the whole problem. If they would have
00:45:45.679 --> 00:45:50.139
said, let's exposure therapy Zach by putting
00:45:50.139 --> 00:45:53.980
him in it quite literally. Yes. Instead of let's
00:45:53.980 --> 00:45:56.980
do exposure therapy by making him watch. Like
00:45:56.980 --> 00:45:58.300
that's so much worse. I thought that was gross.
00:45:58.320 --> 00:46:00.820
I thought that was so gross. Yeah. Like put on
00:46:00.820 --> 00:46:04.550
a show for your wives. That's fine. I was on
00:46:04.550 --> 00:46:07.050
Zach's side about like about being upset about
00:46:07.050 --> 00:46:10.170
it. I like not about where it ends up, but I
00:46:10.170 --> 00:46:16.190
agree that this was mean. Yeah. And the part
00:46:16.190 --> 00:46:18.750
that really you're not there yet. I won't ruin
00:46:18.750 --> 00:46:23.889
it for you. But yeah, I don't know. Obviously,
00:46:23.889 --> 00:46:28.389
he overreacts and we'll get into that. But it
00:46:28.389 --> 00:46:31.960
was a weird thing for them to do. It was the
00:46:31.960 --> 00:46:36.940
whole thing was very weird. And I have I have
00:46:36.940 --> 00:46:40.000
a lot of thoughts because we get to how much
00:46:40.000 --> 00:46:41.840
did. Yeah, we get to that. We get to how much
00:46:41.840 --> 00:46:44.280
did Jen know? I'm going to have a lot of feelings
00:46:44.280 --> 00:46:51.849
about that. I know. Yeah. So. It's so tough,
00:46:51.869 --> 00:46:53.650
too, because it's like I feel like they were
00:46:53.650 --> 00:46:55.949
just trying to have fun and they flew in a Chippendales
00:46:55.949 --> 00:46:59.409
gun, whatever. It's like, why did you spend some
00:46:59.409 --> 00:47:01.769
real money here? Like, yeah. Do you think it
00:47:01.769 --> 00:47:06.150
was production's idea or theirs? I have a feeling.
00:47:06.650 --> 00:47:09.730
So what I know about Real Housewives and I keep
00:47:09.730 --> 00:47:11.050
going back to Real Housewives because that's
00:47:11.050 --> 00:47:12.550
my frame of reference. But what I know about
00:47:12.550 --> 00:47:15.289
Real Housewives is like they the Housewives all
00:47:15.289 --> 00:47:18.469
present ideas and production will let ideas through.
00:47:20.179 --> 00:47:22.500
Production, from what I understand, does not
00:47:22.500 --> 00:47:26.440
say do this so we can get this reaction. It's
00:47:26.440 --> 00:47:29.539
all it's all supposed to be natural. I'll bet
00:47:29.539 --> 00:47:34.039
you actual money that Jesse and Demi said, do
00:47:34.039 --> 00:47:36.340
you know what would be so funny? And the production
00:47:36.340 --> 00:47:39.280
was like, well, we'll pay to fly in a Chippendales
00:47:39.280 --> 00:47:42.320
answer. Let's do it. A hundred percent. A hundred
00:47:42.320 --> 00:47:48.929
percent. OK. Yeah. So we get to. We were done
00:47:48.929 --> 00:47:51.250
with that scene. Zach's furious. That's that's
00:47:51.250 --> 00:47:53.429
the long and short of it. We go to Halloween
00:47:53.429 --> 00:47:55.789
with Michaela. I don't know if I fuck with Michaela.
00:47:56.250 --> 00:47:59.929
I like her, but I don't know that I did at this
00:47:59.929 --> 00:48:02.570
point in the season. Does she does she start
00:48:02.570 --> 00:48:05.969
to grow on? Yeah, I think so. She's kind of like
00:48:05.969 --> 00:48:13.090
awkward. I agree. Yeah. Like she's not. I don't
00:48:13.090 --> 00:48:14.969
I don't want to sound mean. I don't want to sound
00:48:14.969 --> 00:48:17.489
mean. I was about to say she's not like built
00:48:17.489 --> 00:48:20.630
for reality TV. No. Because I feel like the type
00:48:20.630 --> 00:48:23.170
of person, I'm not either. The type of person
00:48:23.170 --> 00:48:27.210
who's built for reality TV is like instantly
00:48:27.210 --> 00:48:30.650
likable. You instantly connect with them and
00:48:30.650 --> 00:48:33.710
you get them. And that's just not really her.
00:48:33.849 --> 00:48:38.489
Like it takes some growing. Yes. So like, anyway.
00:48:39.010 --> 00:48:42.289
Her sisters show up at her house dressed as.
00:48:42.940 --> 00:48:47.300
Her and Whitney. So confusing. I thought that
00:48:47.300 --> 00:48:51.400
was so weird. That was. What I feel like is happening
00:48:51.400 --> 00:48:53.500
here is I think the sisters are trying to get
00:48:53.500 --> 00:48:55.800
on the show. Yeah, I think it was. They thought
00:48:55.800 --> 00:48:57.599
it would be funny on the show, but it just came
00:48:57.599 --> 00:48:59.940
off as like bizarre. Yeah, the whole thing was
00:48:59.940 --> 00:49:02.780
weird to me. Michaela opens up about her chronic
00:49:02.780 --> 00:49:10.059
health issue, i .e. eczema. Yeah. OK. And like
00:49:10.059 --> 00:49:13.659
to her defense, she like. Was in the hospital
00:49:13.659 --> 00:49:16.760
for a while because it got, like, so bad. And
00:49:16.760 --> 00:49:19.659
it was all over her body. And she really had
00:49:19.659 --> 00:49:22.320
trouble handling it. And I can't imagine being
00:49:22.320 --> 00:49:25.440
an influencer, like, needing to post all the
00:49:25.440 --> 00:49:31.019
time and being covered in red spots. That's fair.
00:49:31.300 --> 00:49:34.519
However. However. Yeah. The way she presented
00:49:34.519 --> 00:49:36.760
it. You're sitting across from someone that lives
00:49:36.760 --> 00:49:40.340
with psoriasis. Yeah. Yeah, for sure. I know.
00:49:40.440 --> 00:49:48.530
Which is. almost bar for bar, exactly like eczema.
00:49:48.869 --> 00:49:57.630
Yeah. I will say, because all I can picture in
00:49:57.630 --> 00:50:00.329
my head right now are the videos of it literally
00:50:00.329 --> 00:50:03.829
all over her body. Yes. On her stomach, her face,
00:50:03.849 --> 00:50:06.289
her arms, her legs, everywhere. I've lived it.
00:50:06.309 --> 00:50:09.650
I get it. It's hard. I 100 % get it. And so...
00:50:11.559 --> 00:50:15.500
But the way she presented it in season one, I
00:50:15.500 --> 00:50:21.000
think is why I have a problem because it's so
00:50:21.000 --> 00:50:27.139
dramatic. Yes. You're not like stuck in a bed.
00:50:27.219 --> 00:50:30.219
You don't have Crohn's disease. Right. Get off
00:50:30.219 --> 00:50:32.800
the cross. You can eat, you can drink, you can
00:50:32.800 --> 00:50:36.659
take care of your children, even when it's uncomfortable.
00:50:36.960 --> 00:50:40.639
Right. It's also... I get that you're itchy,
00:50:40.780 --> 00:50:45.739
girl, but, like, ugh. I don't know. Yeah, like,
00:50:45.780 --> 00:50:48.159
I do think she should have had some kind of,
00:50:48.179 --> 00:50:52.840
like, compassion for people with chronic illnesses
00:50:52.840 --> 00:51:00.219
that are not eczema. Because, like... And now
00:51:00.219 --> 00:51:02.659
she has it under control. Thank God. And what
00:51:02.659 --> 00:51:07.280
a day the Lord has made. She opens up about being
00:51:07.280 --> 00:51:10.219
sexually abused, which I feel like that was very
00:51:10.219 --> 00:51:14.440
brave of her. Yeah. And not expected. I did not
00:51:14.440 --> 00:51:16.300
expect that from her. I didn't expect the scene
00:51:16.300 --> 00:51:19.300
to go there at all. And I guess she originally
00:51:19.300 --> 00:51:22.280
told her mom I didn't believe her. And I feel
00:51:22.280 --> 00:51:24.460
like that's a story that happens way, way, way
00:51:24.460 --> 00:51:27.920
too often, which really fucking sucks. It really
00:51:27.920 --> 00:51:31.320
broke my heart to hear. Yeah. That is so hard,
00:51:31.400 --> 00:51:35.079
especially to know, like, the time frame that
00:51:35.079 --> 00:51:40.579
she said she was, like, 9, 10, 11, 12 -ish. And
00:51:40.579 --> 00:51:42.380
then she went on to have a baby when she was
00:51:42.380 --> 00:51:49.460
16. And I think that stems from that. Because,
00:51:49.539 --> 00:51:54.320
like, hypersexuality is, like, a huge thing for
00:51:54.320 --> 00:51:57.920
kids who were abused. I don't know. It's just
00:51:57.920 --> 00:52:00.039
really sad. It feels like all of her adolescence
00:52:00.039 --> 00:52:03.340
was kind of stolen from her. I agree. And that
00:52:03.340 --> 00:52:04.840
really fucking sucks. And I can separate that
00:52:04.840 --> 00:52:06.800
from, like, not knowing if I really like her
00:52:06.800 --> 00:52:09.360
right now. Oh, yeah. I think this was very, very
00:52:09.360 --> 00:52:12.599
brave of her. She is a victim in that circumstance.
00:52:13.099 --> 00:52:17.239
And that's so sad. And, yeah, brave to say that
00:52:17.239 --> 00:52:19.599
on reality TV when you know millions of people
00:52:19.599 --> 00:52:23.559
are watching. Mm -hmm. Good for you for standing
00:52:23.559 --> 00:52:26.320
on your shit. Good for you. Even when your mom
00:52:26.320 --> 00:52:31.360
wouldn't believe you. That's so sad. Jen and
00:52:31.360 --> 00:52:36.900
Zach go for a walk. The most staged walk I've
00:52:36.900 --> 00:52:40.019
ever seen in my whole life, by the way. That
00:52:40.019 --> 00:52:44.400
was hard. Like a script was written, truly. Well,
00:52:44.460 --> 00:52:46.900
I think Jen wrote a script and Zach said, I don't
00:52:46.900 --> 00:52:52.030
want to read this. 100%. She knew how she wanted
00:52:52.030 --> 00:52:56.730
that talk to go. And Zach said, uh -uh. Thank
00:52:56.730 --> 00:53:00.409
you. Okay. So they unpack the Chippendales dance.
00:53:00.710 --> 00:53:06.210
Jen starts by saying, I didn't know what was
00:53:06.210 --> 00:53:09.570
going to happen. And then she says, well, the
00:53:09.570 --> 00:53:11.590
girls were making jokes about it. I didn't think
00:53:11.590 --> 00:53:13.269
anything was going to happen. Wait a minute.
00:53:13.769 --> 00:53:16.750
Wait a minute. No. Did you know or were the girls
00:53:16.750 --> 00:53:19.170
joking about it? Did you have reason to believe
00:53:19.170 --> 00:53:21.929
that something could happen, Jen? Are you lying,
00:53:22.269 --> 00:53:26.909
Jen? And then it tears away to the footage of
00:53:26.909 --> 00:53:30.130
her getting her hair done and Jesse and Demi
00:53:30.130 --> 00:53:35.610
saying, hey, we want to run this by you. We're
00:53:35.610 --> 00:53:38.909
going to do like a quasi Chippendales dance.
00:53:39.030 --> 00:53:43.559
Well, hang on. To be fair. Jesse said to Demi,
00:53:43.559 --> 00:53:46.980
I think I'm going to have the guys dress up as
00:53:46.980 --> 00:53:49.000
Chippendales dancers and have them do a tearaway.
00:53:49.559 --> 00:53:52.079
And it's going to be a Chippendales costume.
00:53:52.239 --> 00:53:53.480
They're going to show up in regular costumes.
00:53:53.619 --> 00:53:56.780
It's going to be so funny. That's what we saw
00:53:56.780 --> 00:53:59.760
in the flashback. OK, I feel like there's more
00:53:59.760 --> 00:54:02.300
to that because I distinctly remember maybe they
00:54:02.300 --> 00:54:06.400
haven't shown it yet, but they like ask her bar
00:54:06.400 --> 00:54:09.559
for bar. Do you think you guys would be OK with
00:54:09.559 --> 00:54:12.489
that? You guys being. I have a feeling that's
00:54:12.489 --> 00:54:17.869
coming later. Yeah, like they're not like she
00:54:17.869 --> 00:54:22.510
says, yes, there's not like any. Well, so I think
00:54:22.510 --> 00:54:28.309
what we're coming to is realizing that. Jen has
00:54:28.309 --> 00:54:31.130
a hard time telling the truth to multiple people.
00:54:31.389 --> 00:54:34.070
Yes, she does. And I think this is where it's
00:54:34.070 --> 00:54:35.469
going to come out, because I haven't seen the
00:54:35.469 --> 00:54:37.909
part where that comes out yet. I've only seen
00:54:37.909 --> 00:54:40.269
the part where. Demi's in the chair getting her
00:54:40.269 --> 00:54:43.949
hair done and I'm sorry, Jen's in the chair getting
00:54:43.949 --> 00:54:46.349
her hair done. And Jesse says, hey, what if we
00:54:46.349 --> 00:54:50.269
did this? Yeah, I don't know. Maybe they're maybe
00:54:50.269 --> 00:54:53.250
I'm misremembering or they show more later on.
00:54:53.429 --> 00:54:57.150
But there was no like question about it. Jen
00:54:57.150 --> 00:55:01.690
said she was cool with it, period. And she defends,
00:55:01.690 --> 00:55:06.239
defends, defends. the whole way through yes but
00:55:06.239 --> 00:55:09.800
it's like girl okay i get being a people pleaser
00:55:09.800 --> 00:55:13.300
jen i do but it's not being a people pleaser
00:55:13.300 --> 00:55:16.539
though this is not what that is lying is not
00:55:16.539 --> 00:55:19.780
making anyone happy right like you're not pleasing
00:55:19.780 --> 00:55:24.559
anyone by lying yeah and and i feel like she
00:55:24.559 --> 00:55:29.429
thinks that The absence of truth is not a lie.
00:55:29.570 --> 00:55:31.969
Like if she just doesn't say anything to Zach,
00:55:32.050 --> 00:55:38.510
then it's not a lie. But it is, you know. But
00:55:38.510 --> 00:55:43.389
it's not the absence of truth. It's just telling
00:55:43.389 --> 00:55:48.820
an abject lie. Yeah. Well, I mean, like she should
00:55:48.820 --> 00:55:51.260
have told Zach before because she knew before.
00:55:51.300 --> 00:55:54.340
I agree. And that's the first time to me where
00:55:54.340 --> 00:55:57.280
she's lying. Right. Because because she thinks
00:55:57.280 --> 00:56:01.920
just not telling him is the way to go. And I
00:56:01.920 --> 00:56:04.639
just completely disagree, especially when that's
00:56:04.639 --> 00:56:09.199
your husband. And then to go on and talk to your
00:56:09.199 --> 00:56:15.139
husband and say. Well, you're just putting me
00:56:15.139 --> 00:56:19.880
in a situation where I have to pick between my
00:56:19.880 --> 00:56:23.900
job and my husband, essentially. Well, she's
00:56:23.900 --> 00:56:28.460
saying that she feels like she has to pick between
00:56:28.460 --> 00:56:32.820
mom talk and her marriage. And I feel like what's
00:56:32.820 --> 00:56:35.019
not being said here is I feel like Zach probably
00:56:35.019 --> 00:56:37.599
said behind the scenes, it's me or the show.
00:56:38.539 --> 00:56:43.630
Because I feel like, well, I feel like. I feel
00:56:43.630 --> 00:56:47.010
like he blames the show for humiliating him in
00:56:47.010 --> 00:56:51.730
his marriage. I feel like he... I just feel like
00:56:51.730 --> 00:56:53.150
that's what was said. That's just where we're
00:56:53.150 --> 00:56:56.650
at. They're not saying that on camera. I didn't
00:56:56.650 --> 00:56:59.289
take it like that. I thought that it was more
00:56:59.289 --> 00:57:04.050
she was saying, this group of women that I do
00:57:04.050 --> 00:57:07.889
this with... Wants to do this, that and the other.
00:57:08.269 --> 00:57:11.590
And my husband isn't OK with me doing any of
00:57:11.590 --> 00:57:15.429
that stuff. So now I have to choose between being
00:57:15.429 --> 00:57:18.309
friends with them and making these stupid videos
00:57:18.309 --> 00:57:21.889
and whatever. Sure. Or being married to you.
00:57:23.130 --> 00:57:26.289
Yeah, I agree. That's kind of how I took it.
00:57:26.329 --> 00:57:28.650
I don't know. That's fair. And I can see being
00:57:28.650 --> 00:57:30.650
in that position where it's like you have one
00:57:30.650 --> 00:57:33.960
group of people saying, let's go out. Let's do
00:57:33.960 --> 00:57:36.699
Chippendales. Let's drink. And then on the other
00:57:36.699 --> 00:57:40.440
side, you have your husband being like, you need
00:57:40.440 --> 00:57:45.440
to be a submissive woman. Right. Right. I agree.
00:57:45.900 --> 00:57:51.139
It's hard. I don't think they should have come
00:57:51.139 --> 00:57:53.460
on the show. I think if they were already having
00:57:53.460 --> 00:57:55.019
issues in their marriage, they should not have
00:57:55.019 --> 00:57:57.369
come on the show. I don't. And I'll say that
00:57:57.369 --> 00:58:00.389
for all of reality TV. Oh, yeah. All of these
00:58:00.389 --> 00:58:02.909
marriages that are on the rocks need to stay
00:58:02.909 --> 00:58:06.449
off of reality TV, especially if you're not okay
00:58:06.449 --> 00:58:12.329
with airing all your shit. Whitney has her baby.
00:58:13.469 --> 00:58:17.829
Yay. This is a lavender marriage, right? Oh,
00:58:17.849 --> 00:58:21.389
well, I sent you that video of Zach pinning Whitney's
00:58:21.389 --> 00:58:23.769
husband up against the wall, right? Oh, yeah.
00:58:23.969 --> 00:58:30.619
Yeah. That's hard. This is hard. It's hard to
00:58:30.619 --> 00:58:35.239
watch. And when she had her baby, is it sick
00:58:35.239 --> 00:58:37.260
that all I could think of is that one time when
00:58:37.260 --> 00:58:40.059
she made a tick tock by her sick baby in the
00:58:40.059 --> 00:58:42.159
hospital? Do you remember that? Yes. She got
00:58:42.159 --> 00:58:49.840
canceled for that. Yes. That's. Yeah. OK. Yeah.
00:58:49.920 --> 00:58:52.719
Not much to say on that. Congratulations. You
00:58:52.719 --> 00:58:56.090
had a baby. Love that. Everyone goes to a farm
00:58:56.090 --> 00:58:59.210
situation with their kids. Jen doesn't go because
00:58:59.210 --> 00:59:06.230
she's depressed. That Ferris wheel. Being so
00:59:06.230 --> 00:59:08.550
comfortable in that Ferris wheel was wild to
00:59:08.550 --> 00:59:12.190
me because you. I'd rather go on wagon wheel.
00:59:12.250 --> 00:59:20.519
Watch you see. I don't know. I'm not a big. Ferris
00:59:20.519 --> 00:59:22.800
wheel girl. That's the thing. I'll go to like
00:59:22.800 --> 00:59:25.500
Kings Island, Six Flags, Cedar Point and like
00:59:25.500 --> 00:59:27.820
those roller coasters and be fine. Yeah. But
00:59:27.820 --> 00:59:30.619
fair rides freak me out. Yeah, because they're
00:59:30.619 --> 00:59:33.079
just like set up and like. Yeah, they're rickety.
00:59:33.260 --> 00:59:37.300
Yeah. Like, do I really trust that you guys tighten
00:59:37.300 --> 00:59:42.599
the bolts all the way this time? No. The girls
00:59:42.599 --> 00:59:45.059
all kind of agree that Jen is a little bit rotten
00:59:45.059 --> 00:59:51.369
and. See, we're getting very close to a point
00:59:51.369 --> 00:59:54.670
where I have to tell you that I feel for Jen.
00:59:55.610 --> 00:59:59.750
Okay. Because she, I don't want to tell you until
00:59:59.750 --> 01:00:06.190
after Whitney goes to her house. Okay. We're
01:00:06.190 --> 01:00:08.409
not there yet. We'll get into that later. But
01:00:08.409 --> 01:00:10.630
yeah, they go to the farm. They're on the Ferris
01:00:10.630 --> 01:00:14.760
wheel. They all hate Jen. Some of the girls go
01:00:14.760 --> 01:00:16.599
through a corn maze while Taylor and Miranda
01:00:16.599 --> 01:00:19.579
go to chat. And then Taylor wants to be completely
01:00:19.579 --> 01:00:24.800
honest about the situation and. Or about the
01:00:24.800 --> 01:00:28.300
swinging situation, and I feel like Miranda and
01:00:28.300 --> 01:00:30.360
Taylor should have gotten together ahead of the
01:00:30.360 --> 01:00:34.360
situation and chatted and said, this is what
01:00:34.360 --> 01:00:36.500
I'm going to say on camera and they should have
01:00:36.500 --> 01:00:38.739
compromised. That's what I feel like should have
01:00:38.739 --> 01:00:42.800
happened. I feel like Taylor and I kind of love
01:00:42.800 --> 01:00:45.420
her for this wouldn't have ever let that happen
01:00:45.420 --> 01:00:49.000
like she's the one that I feel like no I'm gonna
01:00:49.000 --> 01:00:51.159
say what I want to say and I'm gonna say it on
01:00:51.159 --> 01:00:56.010
TV You know, I see that from her more than Miranda.
01:00:56.369 --> 01:00:59.489
And I also feel like Miranda is so scared of
01:00:59.489 --> 01:01:01.750
telling the truth. But like, if you were going
01:01:01.750 --> 01:01:04.730
to come on to the show and be, quote unquote,
01:01:04.869 --> 01:01:08.030
part of mom talk, you're going to have to just
01:01:08.030 --> 01:01:11.010
own it at some point, girl. Well, so this is
01:01:11.010 --> 01:01:14.300
what it comes down to. Taylor said Taylor. They
01:01:14.300 --> 01:01:17.360
cut to a confessional and Taylor says, this is
01:01:17.360 --> 01:01:18.900
what we did. I'll start listing everything off.
01:01:19.019 --> 01:01:21.519
They had sex with their respective husbands in
01:01:21.519 --> 01:01:23.840
the shower and in the same bed together at the
01:01:23.840 --> 01:01:27.360
same time. They blindfolded each other and guessed
01:01:27.360 --> 01:01:32.920
whose husband they were kissing. Then they basically
01:01:32.920 --> 01:01:37.659
filmed a girls gone wild scene. Yeah, like nothing
01:01:37.659 --> 01:01:41.659
crazy. I also don't know if she's telling the
01:01:41.659 --> 01:01:46.010
real juice of it. In that confessional either,
01:01:46.150 --> 01:01:47.989
because she didn't say it in the original TikTok.
01:01:48.369 --> 01:01:51.769
She's not saying it in any conversations. I don't
01:01:51.769 --> 01:01:53.250
think she would go on to say it there either.
01:01:53.570 --> 01:01:56.449
I think we're getting the tamest version regardless.
01:01:57.329 --> 01:02:00.769
I'm I'm OK with this version. Honestly, like
01:02:00.769 --> 01:02:03.769
if this is what this is, this is their business
01:02:03.769 --> 01:02:06.150
that they can share. They cannot share. I feel
01:02:06.150 --> 01:02:10.030
like they just need to be on the same page. But
01:02:10.030 --> 01:02:11.670
what they're sharing, I think, is the long and
01:02:11.670 --> 01:02:16.440
short of it. For sure. And what it comes down
01:02:16.440 --> 01:02:19.099
to is Miranda was embarrassed. And that's fair
01:02:19.099 --> 01:02:23.579
because the Mormon. Especially coming from the
01:02:23.579 --> 01:02:27.199
church. Yes. Yeah. The church makes it hard to
01:02:27.199 --> 01:02:29.079
be completely honest about this stuff because
01:02:29.079 --> 01:02:30.960
there's so much stigma put around this stuff.
01:02:31.019 --> 01:02:34.000
If you want to swing, swing. If you want to have
01:02:34.000 --> 01:02:37.840
a hundred different partners, I don't care. Right,
01:02:37.940 --> 01:02:40.579
but John Smith does. But John Smith cares. Joseph
01:02:40.579 --> 01:02:44.639
Smith. Joseph Smith. Yeah. You're going to outer
01:02:44.639 --> 01:02:48.280
darkness. I'm not. I'm not my man. I don't know
01:02:48.280 --> 01:02:51.760
his name. Jay Smith. The way they leave it. I
01:02:51.760 --> 01:02:54.679
feel like Miranda actually wants to fix things
01:02:54.679 --> 01:02:56.460
and Taylor actually wants to fix things. And
01:02:56.460 --> 01:02:58.719
I and what I appreciate is I feel like there's
01:02:58.719 --> 01:03:02.199
a genuine friendship there and they they want
01:03:02.199 --> 01:03:06.159
to get back to that. Yeah, I agree, and I think
01:03:06.159 --> 01:03:09.099
Chase being out of the picture really helps with
01:03:09.099 --> 01:03:13.579
that for them. Like, Miranda getting that divorce
01:03:13.579 --> 01:03:17.320
is definitely key in them ever being friends
01:03:17.320 --> 01:03:23.380
again. I did think they were both, like, pretty
01:03:23.380 --> 01:03:26.760
mature about the conversation. Like, Taylor wasn't
01:03:26.760 --> 01:03:30.199
dragging out everything she could for Miranda.
01:03:30.199 --> 01:03:33.690
I agree. She was respectful of the boundary.
01:03:33.730 --> 01:03:37.809
And Miranda didn't like fly off the handle about
01:03:37.809 --> 01:03:41.010
her reputation or anything like that. I felt
01:03:41.010 --> 01:03:43.030
like they were both kind of like cool headed.
01:03:43.449 --> 01:03:45.269
Well, I like where they ended that conversation.
01:03:45.349 --> 01:03:48.170
I actually, I felt really good about that. Yeah.
01:03:49.230 --> 01:03:51.710
Michaela goes to see a sexual trauma specialist
01:03:51.710 --> 01:03:56.849
and I, a couple of things. One, I didn't know
01:03:56.849 --> 01:04:01.570
that this was like its own specialty. Bless you.
01:04:01.690 --> 01:04:04.150
Excuse me. I didn't know that this was its own
01:04:04.150 --> 01:04:08.429
specialty. And I also feel like this lady is
01:04:08.429 --> 01:04:11.369
really, really good at her job. I felt the same
01:04:11.369 --> 01:04:15.090
way. She made me feel safe through the TV. Yeah.
01:04:15.289 --> 01:04:18.489
Like she definitely did a good job of like making
01:04:18.489 --> 01:04:21.230
it known that Michaela was in a safe space and
01:04:21.230 --> 01:04:23.769
she could share her truth and she would be heard.
01:04:23.869 --> 01:04:27.489
Well, she was also like, call it out. Say how
01:04:27.489 --> 01:04:31.030
you feel. Yeah. Put a name to it. Yes. You know,
01:04:31.050 --> 01:04:34.269
and that I think is really powerful, especially
01:04:34.269 --> 01:04:37.309
even outside of the church. I feel like women
01:04:37.309 --> 01:04:39.590
are always told to kind of like push it down,
01:04:39.630 --> 01:04:42.809
push it down. What you feel is dramatic. What
01:04:42.809 --> 01:04:46.690
you feel is not real. It's all in your head.
01:04:46.789 --> 01:04:50.230
So I think that was really, really good to have
01:04:50.230 --> 01:04:53.150
on TV, especially with like teenagers watching
01:04:53.150 --> 01:04:56.400
because I'm sure teenagers love this show. I
01:04:56.400 --> 01:04:59.440
also having it on TV, period. But like, I feel
01:04:59.440 --> 01:05:06.199
like filming it is incredibly brave because you're
01:05:06.199 --> 01:05:08.800
you have to reckon with a lot of this. Number
01:05:08.800 --> 01:05:14.579
one. Number two, you have to know this person
01:05:14.579 --> 01:05:19.139
may or may not see it. And their family and the
01:05:19.139 --> 01:05:22.539
people who defend your abuser. Yes. And you have
01:05:22.539 --> 01:05:25.260
to stand in the face of all of them and be like,
01:05:25.320 --> 01:05:29.559
no, this happened to me and I was hurt by it.
01:05:29.599 --> 01:05:34.099
Right. And still am. Right. And it's like, I
01:05:34.099 --> 01:05:38.519
will give that to her. So what she is doing had
01:05:38.519 --> 01:05:40.460
to be a very scary thing to do. I'm very proud
01:05:40.460 --> 01:05:43.860
of her for doing that. Yeah. Yeah, let that man
01:05:43.860 --> 01:05:45.860
try to touch her. I'll be in Utah in two seconds.
01:05:45.900 --> 01:05:50.400
Let's go to Utah. Whitney is at the house with
01:05:50.400 --> 01:05:54.860
her baby. Taylor and Macy show up to visit. Yeah,
01:05:54.940 --> 01:05:58.599
it's very like mom's stuck at home because the
01:05:58.599 --> 01:06:02.159
baby's brand new and she wants all the tea. Is
01:06:02.159 --> 01:06:04.420
there talking about the the chaos from the Halloween
01:06:04.420 --> 01:06:07.500
party? And this is where Whitney realizes I missed
01:06:07.500 --> 01:06:10.360
this life. Yeah, I feel like that was kind of
01:06:10.360 --> 01:06:14.150
when she decided like. I need to be in Mom Talk.
01:06:14.710 --> 01:06:20.590
And part of me is okay with that. Listen, if
01:06:20.590 --> 01:06:25.409
you want to make your money on TikTok with five
01:06:25.409 --> 01:06:28.289
other women and have fun, I think you should
01:06:28.289 --> 01:06:30.269
do that. Yeah. Especially with the amount of
01:06:30.269 --> 01:06:34.949
money they're pulling in. Well, that, but also...
01:06:35.519 --> 01:06:37.900
she was part of the original mom talk and like
01:06:37.900 --> 01:06:41.880
if you like there's yeah like it's fine like
01:06:41.880 --> 01:06:45.340
i i don't i don't know if i like her but like
01:06:45.340 --> 01:06:48.079
i remember last week i said i don't like her
01:06:48.079 --> 01:06:49.699
i don't know if that's gonna change i don't know
01:06:49.699 --> 01:06:56.199
if i like her i'm warming up to her i've finished
01:06:56.199 --> 01:07:00.480
the season and i still like i don't love her
01:07:00.480 --> 01:07:05.690
i just feel kind of like She might be middle
01:07:05.690 --> 01:07:07.929
of the pack for me. I don't love her. There is
01:07:07.929 --> 01:07:11.289
one moment, and I already talked about it kind
01:07:11.289 --> 01:07:15.769
of, where I really do respect her and, like,
01:07:15.789 --> 01:07:19.809
see her as a good friend. But otherwise, like,
01:07:19.889 --> 01:07:22.670
she's just kind of neither here nor there for
01:07:22.670 --> 01:07:27.030
me. We'll get there. Jen and Zach are in a very,
01:07:27.050 --> 01:07:31.070
very dark place, and Jen's pregnant. Yeah. It's
01:07:31.070 --> 01:07:35.550
rough. It's really rough. Janet's having a crisis
01:07:35.550 --> 01:07:37.309
of conscience, I feel like, because she starts
01:07:37.309 --> 01:07:39.150
talking about, I'm not the person I want to be
01:07:39.150 --> 01:07:42.530
when I'm bringing a baby into this world. 100%.
01:07:42.530 --> 01:07:45.489
And I think she's self -aware that she's dealing
01:07:45.489 --> 01:07:47.869
with drama that's not age -appropriate for her.
01:07:48.429 --> 01:07:51.389
Because we're talking about lying and hiding
01:07:51.389 --> 01:07:54.550
things from your man, who's your husband and
01:07:54.550 --> 01:07:57.210
father of your children, not just your little
01:07:57.210 --> 01:08:01.320
boyfriend. I agree. And I think she's... And
01:08:01.320 --> 01:08:03.900
I respect that about her. I think she's self
01:08:03.900 --> 01:08:07.739
-aware that she's lying to her friends and hiding
01:08:07.739 --> 01:08:13.579
things and isn't where she wants to be. And that's
01:08:13.579 --> 01:08:15.920
good. I don't think you can ever improve if you
01:08:15.920 --> 01:08:18.100
never realize that you're not where you want
01:08:18.100 --> 01:08:22.239
to be. You have to realize that there's room
01:08:22.239 --> 01:08:24.359
for improvement to ever improve. Where I want
01:08:24.359 --> 01:08:28.279
her to be is not on this show. Really? As of
01:08:28.279 --> 01:08:31.979
now, yes. I don't know how I feel. I don't...
01:08:31.979 --> 01:08:37.220
I do think she, ideally, like, for everyone in
01:08:37.220 --> 01:08:41.319
her life to be happy, I do think she has to step
01:08:41.319 --> 01:08:43.699
away from all these women because she needs to
01:08:43.699 --> 01:08:47.539
live a more, I hate to say it, Mormon life than
01:08:47.539 --> 01:08:50.340
the rest of them because I think to appease Zach
01:08:50.340 --> 01:08:55.399
and to bring their kids through life the way...
01:08:55.949 --> 01:08:58.649
her husband wants her to and all of that, if
01:08:58.649 --> 01:09:03.210
she really, like, is committed to that, I think
01:09:03.210 --> 01:09:05.449
she has to step away from all of this. However,
01:09:05.710 --> 01:09:10.189
I will say I knew Jen before I knew Taylor because
01:09:10.189 --> 01:09:13.449
of her dancing on the counter for her baby videos.
01:09:13.970 --> 01:09:16.710
I saw those on TikTok, like, years and years
01:09:16.710 --> 01:09:21.609
ago. And, like... She never gave that to me.
01:09:21.930 --> 01:09:25.210
So unfortunately, I think a big part of it is
01:09:25.210 --> 01:09:28.170
that I think a lot of her problems stem from
01:09:28.170 --> 01:09:30.449
her and Zach not being a good match in the sense
01:09:30.449 --> 01:09:33.529
that she wouldn't have had to lie about the Chippendales
01:09:33.529 --> 01:09:36.449
thing. She never would have had the crash out
01:09:36.449 --> 01:09:39.750
in Vegas. She never would have had all of these
01:09:39.750 --> 01:09:45.510
issues if it weren't for the ideals of her husband.
01:09:45.770 --> 01:09:49.060
I agree. I just don't think they're a good match.
01:09:49.159 --> 01:09:51.279
I feel like either she needs to get a divorce,
01:09:51.500 --> 01:09:54.180
which I don't see happening. Nope. Or she needs
01:09:54.180 --> 01:09:56.560
to step away from these girls because these girls
01:09:56.560 --> 01:09:59.680
and her husband have very different ideas of
01:09:59.680 --> 01:10:03.380
how she should be living her life. I agree. And
01:10:03.380 --> 01:10:05.560
it's sad. It is. So that's the end of episode
01:10:05.560 --> 01:10:10.159
three. Episode four, the book of taboos. I had
01:10:10.159 --> 01:10:11.979
a lot of ups and downs in this episode. I'm going
01:10:11.979 --> 01:10:14.579
to be very real with you. You didn't know Layla
01:10:14.579 --> 01:10:18.300
had ever had an orgasm? No. they talk about it
01:10:18.300 --> 01:10:21.119
in the first season, but it's like very, I don't
01:10:21.119 --> 01:10:22.800
remember the first season. I'm going to be honest.
01:10:22.840 --> 01:10:25.479
Like that was a fever dream. I don't remember
01:10:25.479 --> 01:10:29.060
what Whitney did. I want, I want us to go back.
01:10:29.079 --> 01:10:31.760
Like after we finish the season two, I want us
01:10:31.760 --> 01:10:33.600
to go back and like rewatch season one. Because
01:10:33.600 --> 01:10:37.880
I. I don't remember any. I know this is embarrassing.
01:10:37.979 --> 01:10:40.319
I know that Whitney did a whole bunch of shit,
01:10:40.340 --> 01:10:42.579
but I don't actually remember what she did. I
01:10:42.579 --> 01:10:45.319
feel like I know I didn't like Whitney. And that's
01:10:45.319 --> 01:10:47.520
why I opened season two with being like demon
01:10:47.520 --> 01:10:50.319
monster. Whitney is bad. Yeah. But like, I don't
01:10:50.319 --> 01:10:52.340
remember any. But I did remember that Layla had
01:10:52.340 --> 01:10:54.680
never had an orgasm because like, look at her.
01:10:54.760 --> 01:10:58.819
Why does no man do it for her? I do think it's
01:10:58.819 --> 01:11:02.159
she's talked about it a little bit. I don't think
01:11:02.159 --> 01:11:05.449
it's. All just the men she's hooked up with.
01:11:05.510 --> 01:11:07.770
She said that she has like a lot of internalized
01:11:07.770 --> 01:11:12.090
guilt around sex in general. We get to that.
01:11:12.310 --> 01:11:18.850
Yeah. So it's like I kind of get that. Taylor,
01:11:19.149 --> 01:11:22.859
Michaela and Macy go to brunch. We find out I
01:11:22.859 --> 01:11:25.279
don't know if we find this out or this is something
01:11:25.279 --> 01:11:27.659
we already knew. I this is the first time I remember
01:11:27.659 --> 01:11:31.180
hearing it. Dakota's newly sober. So Taylor felt
01:11:31.180 --> 01:11:32.800
like she had to check on him after the whole
01:11:32.800 --> 01:11:34.539
thing was said and done at the Halloween party.
01:11:34.659 --> 01:11:38.800
Yeah. I feel like Taylor is working on herself
01:11:38.800 --> 01:11:41.000
and I feel like she's becoming more self -aware,
01:11:41.199 --> 01:11:43.779
which I really like about Taylor because I don't
01:11:43.779 --> 01:11:46.399
I think she's very different from she. Who I
01:11:46.399 --> 01:11:48.939
remember her being in the first season. A hundred
01:11:48.939 --> 01:11:52.460
percent. I think that she's a more mature version
01:11:52.460 --> 01:11:56.439
of herself this season than she was before. She's
01:11:56.439 --> 01:11:59.119
not making so many excuses for herself. She's
01:11:59.119 --> 01:12:03.079
standing on what needs to be stood on and admitting
01:12:03.079 --> 01:12:07.279
when she's wrong more, which I really appreciated.
01:12:07.359 --> 01:12:10.479
I liked to see that she was going to couples
01:12:10.479 --> 01:12:15.420
therapy with Dakota to try to. make amends with
01:12:15.420 --> 01:12:18.279
him i thought that was very mature of her i think
01:12:18.279 --> 01:12:20.859
that's mature but i have a problem with her psychiatrist
01:12:20.859 --> 01:12:23.600
being the couple's therapist because i think
01:12:23.600 --> 01:12:27.020
that's a conflict of interest number one i i
01:12:27.020 --> 01:12:30.100
think if anything i hate to defend a man but
01:12:30.100 --> 01:12:33.659
i think it's unfair to dakota because you have
01:12:33.659 --> 01:12:36.920
a psychiatrist who is like your individual psychiatrist
01:12:38.010 --> 01:12:41.289
is kind of like a team player for you. They want
01:12:41.289 --> 01:12:44.210
to see you do better. They want to see you improve.
01:12:44.529 --> 01:12:47.310
And they're, like, biased towards your mental
01:12:47.310 --> 01:12:50.970
health. And so, like, it's just not really fair
01:12:50.970 --> 01:12:53.470
because I feel like how can Dakota's side be
01:12:53.470 --> 01:12:58.229
heard? I agree. I don't know. Yeah, that is weird.
01:12:58.529 --> 01:13:02.789
Macy brings up that she got a sinner Sunday confession
01:13:02.789 --> 01:13:04.590
that someone hooked up with Brett while Demi
01:13:04.590 --> 01:13:07.289
was on a trip. I don't know if I believe it,
01:13:07.310 --> 01:13:10.369
but I don't know if I don't believe it. Yeah.
01:13:10.770 --> 01:13:15.550
Like, I mean, obviously, I see kind of how it
01:13:15.550 --> 01:13:18.109
shakes out in the end, but you never know the
01:13:18.109 --> 01:13:21.250
real truth, obviously, because it was an anonymous
01:13:21.250 --> 01:13:27.949
thing. But I just feel because, like, the only
01:13:27.949 --> 01:13:30.890
time Demi was away was for Vanderpump Villa.
01:13:31.800 --> 01:13:34.180
And so that's when they were saying this must
01:13:34.180 --> 01:13:39.300
have happened and la la da. I don't know. Well,
01:13:39.319 --> 01:13:41.640
we'll see how this goes, because this comes up
01:13:41.640 --> 01:13:44.579
towards the end of this episode, which I feel
01:13:44.579 --> 01:13:46.199
like is a cliffhanger into the next episode.
01:13:46.220 --> 01:13:49.260
Yeah. It doesn't really come to a head until
01:13:49.260 --> 01:13:52.819
the last five minutes of episode 10. Can't wait.
01:13:53.020 --> 01:13:57.159
It did not shake out how I thought it would.
01:13:57.260 --> 01:14:02.359
Ladies and gentlemen, did not. Jen goes to Miranda's
01:14:02.359 --> 01:14:05.180
house because I feel like Miranda is the only
01:14:05.180 --> 01:14:09.500
one talking to her at this point. Yeah, I like
01:14:09.500 --> 01:14:13.399
the idea of Jen and Miranda being friends because
01:14:13.399 --> 01:14:17.500
I. Do you? In the sense of like what I said before,
01:14:17.659 --> 01:14:19.880
where I think Jen and Zach are not a good match.
01:14:19.939 --> 01:14:22.899
I think Miranda could be a great example of like
01:14:22.899 --> 01:14:27.659
how she could be happy and not married, maybe.
01:14:28.239 --> 01:14:32.539
Sure. And let me just. I understand that Jen
01:14:32.539 --> 01:14:34.720
and Zach love each other. I'm not saying that
01:14:34.720 --> 01:14:38.100
they don't. What I'm saying is she's an emotional
01:14:38.100 --> 01:14:40.579
wreck, and I think part of it is that she and
01:14:40.579 --> 01:14:42.479
her husband don't get along. That's all I'm saying.
01:14:43.380 --> 01:14:47.000
So this brings me to the only thing I wrote down
01:14:47.000 --> 01:14:49.159
about this scene. Jen is miserable in her marriage,
01:14:49.180 --> 01:14:52.100
and she causes spiritual warfare. Yeah. Lord
01:14:52.100 --> 01:14:55.880
have mercy. Which is so dramatic. Like, you're
01:14:55.880 --> 01:15:00.529
miserable in your marriage. That's okay. Because
01:15:00.529 --> 01:15:03.210
she brings it back to like, I feel like I'm not
01:15:03.210 --> 01:15:05.909
close to God anymore. And like, I get like someone
01:15:05.909 --> 01:15:08.350
who came from the church. I get that that's hard.
01:15:08.670 --> 01:15:12.409
Those two things aren't related, babe. No. And
01:15:12.409 --> 01:15:16.270
I think it really comes back to they just aren't
01:15:16.270 --> 01:15:20.699
talking about their actual big issues. Yes. They're
01:15:20.699 --> 01:15:22.880
not compatible. She and Zach. That's what I'm
01:15:22.880 --> 01:15:26.060
saying. Like, she could be so happy on her own.
01:15:26.100 --> 01:15:29.880
And I think Zach could be happy on his own. And
01:15:29.880 --> 01:15:33.239
I think they would be wonderful at co -parenting.
01:15:33.380 --> 01:15:35.779
I think that they could definitely figure that
01:15:35.779 --> 01:15:38.500
out. I don't think either of them wants that.
01:15:38.619 --> 01:15:41.420
I think they want to somehow make it work. It's
01:15:41.420 --> 01:15:46.500
just not working. I agree. The boys go golfing.
01:15:47.590 --> 01:15:52.310
Yeah. What did you think about this scene? Zach
01:15:52.310 --> 01:15:57.289
is like trying to be big and strong. I don't
01:15:57.289 --> 01:15:59.630
I didn't even take it like that. Zach wants to
01:15:59.630 --> 01:16:01.170
confront the guys about the whole Chippendales
01:16:01.170 --> 01:16:05.229
thing. And I thought his approach was very, very,
01:16:05.289 --> 01:16:10.189
very healthy and very good until he said, yeah,
01:16:10.329 --> 01:16:14.250
you touched my wife without consent. That's what
01:16:14.250 --> 01:16:19.659
really got me. When he treated it like sexual
01:16:19.659 --> 01:16:24.319
assault, he lost me. I was like, you are not
01:16:24.319 --> 01:16:28.500
this big macho man who's convincing Brett that
01:16:28.500 --> 01:16:30.800
he committed a crime. Well, I don't even think
01:16:30.800 --> 01:16:32.439
he was trying to do that. Like, because he said,
01:16:32.460 --> 01:16:34.500
well, if I want to be, he said, if I wanted to
01:16:34.500 --> 01:16:38.180
be petty, I could say this. Well, you just said
01:16:38.180 --> 01:16:41.079
it on camera. Yeah, babe. You just said it, number
01:16:41.079 --> 01:16:45.170
one. And, but what I will give. brett and jordan
01:16:45.170 --> 01:16:48.029
is that i think they navigated that landmine
01:16:48.029 --> 01:16:52.569
pretty well i think so too i think they all kind
01:16:52.569 --> 01:16:55.630
of kept a cool head i mean even zach to a point
01:16:55.630 --> 01:16:59.390
kind of like kept his cool no one was like screaming
01:16:59.390 --> 01:17:02.930
or anything well because i think this you in
01:17:02.930 --> 01:17:05.149
this situation you have three rational people
01:17:05.149 --> 01:17:08.210
talking to each other i think i wouldn't call
01:17:08.210 --> 01:17:12.199
zach rational i i think what the guys he is I
01:17:12.199 --> 01:17:15.039
think his opinion on the Chippendales thing in
01:17:15.039 --> 01:17:18.500
general is not rational. OK, that's fair. You
01:17:18.500 --> 01:17:21.539
know, I think he was hand handling this moment
01:17:21.539 --> 01:17:24.739
rationally, maybe. Yeah, I think I think if that's
01:17:24.739 --> 01:17:27.380
going to be your opinion, that your girl isn't
01:17:27.380 --> 01:17:31.939
allowed to see men dance, then you handled it
01:17:31.939 --> 01:17:35.439
well. Sure. But it's just I can't believe that's
01:17:35.439 --> 01:17:38.939
the hill you're willing to die on. But. Here
01:17:38.939 --> 01:17:41.500
again, we find ourselves in a situation where
01:17:41.500 --> 01:17:43.579
Jen has told Zach a completely different story
01:17:43.579 --> 01:17:47.159
than everyone else knows. And the guys are all
01:17:47.159 --> 01:17:49.220
calling it out. And what I really appreciated
01:17:49.220 --> 01:17:54.600
about Brett was the way he said, you need to
01:17:54.600 --> 01:17:56.739
at least be open to this being a possibility.
01:17:57.460 --> 01:18:00.880
And Zach is still like, well, if I find this
01:18:00.880 --> 01:18:02.619
out, it's really going to suck. Baby found it
01:18:02.619 --> 01:18:05.119
out before this. This is not the first time you're
01:18:05.119 --> 01:18:08.189
hearing. My wife is a liar, basically. Right.
01:18:08.850 --> 01:18:13.310
I will say. So before he talked to Demi and Jesse,
01:18:13.550 --> 01:18:17.750
who are the wives of Brett and Jordan? So it's
01:18:17.750 --> 01:18:21.819
like. from his perspective, is this just a united
01:18:21.819 --> 01:18:26.520
front against Jen or is this true? You know what
01:18:26.520 --> 01:18:28.579
I mean? I can see that. Cause they're not like
01:18:28.579 --> 01:18:31.560
separate from their wives in my mind. You know
01:18:31.560 --> 01:18:34.300
what I mean? Um, but I don't know. I don't know.
01:18:34.319 --> 01:18:36.300
Now he's hearing it from both sides. And so I
01:18:36.300 --> 01:18:38.560
feel like that's when he starts to be like, okay,
01:18:38.659 --> 01:18:44.199
Jen definitely knew, which she did. We, we go
01:18:44.199 --> 01:18:47.979
to a scene of Taylor just driving in her car.
01:18:48.699 --> 01:18:51.039
But let me tell you something. Taylor is wearing
01:18:51.039 --> 01:18:55.539
this Goyard bag out. She is. She loves that tote.
01:18:55.720 --> 01:18:58.159
She loves that Goyard tote. And she's either
01:18:58.159 --> 01:19:00.319
sponsored by Goyard or, like, she got it as a
01:19:00.319 --> 01:19:02.420
gift from someone she really, really loves. Like,
01:19:02.420 --> 01:19:04.340
one of those two things is happening. If I had
01:19:04.340 --> 01:19:07.140
a giant Goyard bag and a little baby, that would
01:19:07.140 --> 01:19:13.039
be my diaper bag, too. I respect it, girl. They
01:19:13.039 --> 01:19:15.920
have some flashbacks to therapy where Dakota's
01:19:15.920 --> 01:19:19.890
wearing a hat again. Thank God. Thank God. That
01:19:19.890 --> 01:19:23.250
hairline needs help. But it's not the hairline.
01:19:23.270 --> 01:19:25.430
It's the way the, it's like he's pulling his
01:19:25.430 --> 01:19:28.989
hair back and it's. Well, it's because he does
01:19:28.989 --> 01:19:31.210
have a bad hairline. Like it goes back on both
01:19:31.210 --> 01:19:34.470
sides really far. And then to make matters worse
01:19:34.470 --> 01:19:37.729
in the middle where it has stayed, where it's
01:19:37.729 --> 01:19:42.590
supposed to be is thinning so bad. Okay. So it's
01:19:42.590 --> 01:19:45.649
like you have these little cul -de -sacs. The
01:19:45.649 --> 01:19:48.239
things that I have. And then the thinning. Yeah,
01:19:48.260 --> 01:19:50.479
I guess. But yours doesn't look as bad because
01:19:50.479 --> 01:19:55.060
it's like if your hair was thinning in the middle.
01:19:55.680 --> 01:19:57.140
That's what Dakota's hair is like. I'll kill
01:19:57.140 --> 01:19:58.920
myself when my hair starts thinning in the middle.
01:19:59.699 --> 01:20:03.479
Poor guy. He's like early 30s. He's not even
01:20:03.479 --> 01:20:06.359
that old. He's like, he's all right. Well, he's
01:20:06.359 --> 01:20:10.939
my age, but anyway. How old am I? I don't know.
01:20:11.260 --> 01:20:13.399
He is saying all the right things in therapy.
01:20:14.840 --> 01:20:20.270
Yeah. What concerns me is, do you know who else
01:20:20.270 --> 01:20:24.850
used to do this? Big Joe, my ex uncle. Yeah.
01:20:24.949 --> 01:20:28.149
Who went in front of the people that mattered.
01:20:28.609 --> 01:20:31.550
He would say all of the right things. He would
01:20:31.550 --> 01:20:36.510
get you to believe that he was on the right path.
01:20:37.210 --> 01:20:40.689
And that is a bipolar narcissist is who my ex
01:20:40.689 --> 01:20:43.289
-uncle is. And I believe we might have the same
01:20:43.289 --> 01:20:46.829
thing on our hands with one Mr. Dakota. Yeah,
01:20:46.970 --> 01:20:50.770
I do think he like definitely turns it on for
01:20:50.770 --> 01:20:53.989
therapy and then turns it off when he's alone
01:20:53.989 --> 01:20:57.829
with Taylor. And also turns it on for the confessionals,
01:20:57.829 --> 01:20:59.789
like where it's just him talking to the camera.
01:21:00.130 --> 01:21:06.189
Yeah. He comes across as very victim, very, I
01:21:06.189 --> 01:21:09.050
want my family to be together. I want to be the
01:21:09.050 --> 01:21:12.189
good guy. And then he can't do that when the
01:21:12.189 --> 01:21:13.810
cameras are around the rest of the time. I don't
01:21:13.810 --> 01:21:16.630
get it. There's a scene where you haven't gotten
01:21:16.630 --> 01:21:18.750
there yet, but this is not a spoiler. Taylor
01:21:18.750 --> 01:21:22.529
drops the baby off at Dakota's apartment and
01:21:22.529 --> 01:21:28.340
he doesn't have wipes. To be fair, if you ever
01:21:28.340 --> 01:21:31.460
drop August off at my house. But you're not his
01:21:31.460 --> 01:21:36.000
dad. Okay, that's fair. You should. I don't know.
01:21:36.020 --> 01:21:38.539
If you have a baby, you should have a whole setup
01:21:38.539 --> 01:21:41.100
for when you're expecting them. You need to have.
01:21:41.319 --> 01:21:44.140
He wants to live like he lives in. He wants to
01:21:44.140 --> 01:21:48.300
live like I did at IU. Then stop having babies
01:21:48.300 --> 01:21:50.380
and stop saying you want your family together.
01:21:50.640 --> 01:21:52.079
I agree. You don't want your family together.
01:21:52.159 --> 01:21:55.539
Oh, my God. It's the whole thing. But yeah, I
01:21:55.539 --> 01:21:57.520
don't know how I feel about it because I also
01:21:57.520 --> 01:22:01.060
think that Taylor kind of does that. Oh, yeah.
01:22:01.159 --> 01:22:03.659
I feel like she. They're both immature. Yeah.
01:22:03.779 --> 01:22:06.100
And I feel like they're both kind of manipulative
01:22:06.100 --> 01:22:09.420
people. And so we're watching them try to manipulate
01:22:09.420 --> 01:22:14.020
each other. That's hard. It's a lot to watch.
01:22:14.640 --> 01:22:18.079
I feel like they're going to end up back together
01:22:18.079 --> 01:22:20.239
at least two times before they're done done.
01:22:20.420 --> 01:22:24.350
Oh. At least. I think it's that kind of toxic
01:22:24.350 --> 01:22:27.949
couple where they're addicted to the toxicity.
01:22:27.949 --> 01:22:31.930
Oh, yeah. Where they fear that if they enter
01:22:31.930 --> 01:22:35.829
a new relationship, they'll miss the drama. They'll
01:22:35.829 --> 01:22:39.970
be bored by a healthy relationship. Yeah. I agree.
01:22:41.189 --> 01:22:45.390
We go to Demi's sex party. Loved that, by the
01:22:45.390 --> 01:22:48.750
way. I loved it. I hated it. And here's here's
01:22:48.750 --> 01:22:50.789
the thing. So they found the one sex coach in
01:22:50.789 --> 01:22:54.989
Utah to come to this party. That poor woman.
01:22:55.770 --> 01:23:00.270
Bless her heart. Because aside from her day to
01:23:00.270 --> 01:23:03.189
day job of dealing with people in Utah of all
01:23:03.189 --> 01:23:05.729
places. Trying to have sex with each other. Right.
01:23:06.810 --> 01:23:09.050
She's like, OK, I guess I'm going to go on TV
01:23:09.050 --> 01:23:18.349
now. And she shows up to Demi's house. Where
01:23:18.349 --> 01:23:23.529
they can't they can't just be cool, immature
01:23:23.529 --> 01:23:26.710
about it. That's the problem that I had. Yeah,
01:23:26.829 --> 01:23:30.770
they're very like giggly and uncomfortable. Yeah.
01:23:30.869 --> 01:23:34.789
And when they're doing the like exercise of it
01:23:34.789 --> 01:23:37.609
all, when they're like playing with the toys
01:23:37.609 --> 01:23:40.069
and whatever, finding what feels good for them.
01:23:41.180 --> 01:23:44.520
no one is taking it seriously right and it's
01:23:44.520 --> 01:23:48.020
like why did you come to this to be awkward and
01:23:48.020 --> 01:23:50.920
weird right and like get into it or get out to
01:23:50.920 --> 01:23:53.140
be fair there is some like there's like you have
01:23:53.140 --> 01:23:54.720
to laugh some of that off you have to like get
01:23:54.720 --> 01:23:57.199
through like that the giggles of it all but like
01:23:57.199 --> 01:23:59.579
sure but they just seem like they couldn't get
01:23:59.579 --> 01:24:01.640
out of middle school yeah you know like they
01:24:01.640 --> 01:24:03.979
were just learning about sex right it was so
01:24:03.979 --> 01:24:07.060
weird i don't know maybe it's just how it was
01:24:07.060 --> 01:24:10.319
edited i don't know it probably was a big part
01:24:10.319 --> 01:24:14.760
of it but i'm shocked and honestly kind of pleasantly
01:24:14.760 --> 01:24:17.680
surprised everyone actually showed up well should
01:24:17.680 --> 01:24:20.000
have been lingerie yeah like everyone looks so
01:24:20.000 --> 01:24:23.720
good stunning like really good and it wasn't
01:24:23.720 --> 01:24:27.300
like you'll get to an episode when we recap the
01:24:27.300 --> 01:24:28.739
rehearsals of salt lake city where they all have
01:24:28.739 --> 01:24:32.199
it's jen shaw's piece of shit garbage whore lingerie
01:24:32.199 --> 01:24:36.199
party is what she calls it and Lisa Barlow shows
01:24:36.199 --> 01:24:39.800
up in head to toe, like might as well have shown
01:24:39.800 --> 01:24:43.100
up in a burka. But it was like like flannel pajamas.
01:24:43.439 --> 01:24:48.880
Oh, my God. And these girls who I would argue
01:24:48.880 --> 01:24:50.600
are much more conservative than Lisa Barlow.
01:24:50.680 --> 01:24:54.100
Yeah. Showed up in real lingerie. And they all
01:24:54.100 --> 01:24:56.359
looked incredible. They really did. They all
01:24:56.359 --> 01:25:01.039
looked good. Yeah. Yeah. Loved it. During this
01:25:01.039 --> 01:25:03.680
during the party, the dads are doing dad talk.
01:25:04.939 --> 01:25:07.899
yeah i mean that's fine listen i'm glad they
01:25:07.899 --> 01:25:10.539
all get along i really i agree yeah i think that
01:25:10.539 --> 01:25:14.060
would be like really a rift if a lot of the men
01:25:14.060 --> 01:25:18.300
had problems with each other but right but then
01:25:18.300 --> 01:25:22.420
the part that actually was it was hard for me
01:25:22.420 --> 01:25:25.840
to watch this part leila can't comprehend that
01:25:25.840 --> 01:25:30.350
sex should be pleasurable for her too that actually
01:25:30.350 --> 01:25:32.329
made me sad because they were like, what feels
01:25:32.329 --> 01:25:35.130
good? Because her answer to the what do you like
01:25:35.130 --> 01:25:37.970
question was, I like seeing my partner feel good.
01:25:38.449 --> 01:25:41.909
And I think it was Demi asked her, no, what feels
01:25:41.909 --> 01:25:43.850
good for you? And she said, what do you mean?
01:25:44.130 --> 01:25:49.949
And that made me really sad. I think sex has
01:25:49.949 --> 01:25:52.750
been such a problem for her in her life. And
01:25:52.750 --> 01:25:57.090
unfortunately, even outside of the church, like
01:25:57.090 --> 01:26:00.590
in society, that's just like, not really something
01:26:00.590 --> 01:26:02.449
you can talk about. Like, you're not going to
01:26:02.449 --> 01:26:05.289
make a TikTok and be like, I really struggle
01:26:05.289 --> 01:26:07.989
feeling good about sex. Like, that's just not
01:26:07.989 --> 01:26:11.550
really something. Okay, so here's my question.
01:26:11.670 --> 01:26:14.770
Do you and I just have a very healthy relationship
01:26:14.770 --> 01:26:17.050
with sex? Because when you and I talk about this
01:26:17.050 --> 01:26:20.810
kind of stuff, I don't feel like we get weird
01:26:20.810 --> 01:26:22.569
about it. Like, do you and I just have a healthy
01:26:22.569 --> 01:26:25.609
relationship or, like, are we weird? No, I think
01:26:25.609 --> 01:26:31.100
that... I don't know. I think that we have a
01:26:31.100 --> 01:26:33.199
healthy relationship with sex and also that we
01:26:33.199 --> 01:26:36.479
feel comfortable with each other. I also feel
01:26:36.479 --> 01:26:38.939
like I wouldn't ever, like, go online and talk
01:26:38.939 --> 01:26:41.220
about my sex life. You know what I mean? Okay,
01:26:41.220 --> 01:26:43.979
okay, fair, fair, fair. Like, I just, I'm just
01:26:43.979 --> 01:26:47.659
not like that. Like, I just can't. And most people
01:26:47.659 --> 01:26:49.640
aren't, especially if you're having trouble in
01:26:49.640 --> 01:26:52.380
the bedroom. Like, you're never gonna, like...
01:26:52.380 --> 01:26:55.539
Oh, okay, yeah. Like, for Layla, I just don't
01:26:55.539 --> 01:26:59.890
see her making a TikTok being, like... I can't
01:26:59.890 --> 01:27:03.090
come. So it's, we're talking about two kind of
01:27:03.090 --> 01:27:05.449
different, not two different issues, but two
01:27:05.449 --> 01:27:09.770
ways of approaching it where she's, this is happening
01:27:09.770 --> 01:27:12.750
in her life. And she's like, she's kind of honest
01:27:12.750 --> 01:27:14.609
about it with herself, but then she has to be
01:27:14.609 --> 01:27:17.130
honest about it on reality television. Yeah.
01:27:17.710 --> 01:27:20.670
And okay. Okay. That's a different thing. Cause
01:27:20.670 --> 01:27:23.329
it's like as separated as she is from the church.
01:27:23.390 --> 01:27:25.810
I feel like she's still, it never leaves you
01:27:25.810 --> 01:27:28.489
though. Yeah. She still has those ideals in her.
01:27:28.569 --> 01:27:31.850
And then you have society as a whole, which is
01:27:31.850 --> 01:27:35.289
sex positive, but only to a certain point. And
01:27:35.289 --> 01:27:38.890
so it's like, we're a sex positive wink. Right.
01:27:39.029 --> 01:27:41.489
Exactly. And so I don't think she necessarily
01:27:41.489 --> 01:27:44.789
has the safe space to be like, yeah, listen,
01:27:44.909 --> 01:27:46.789
this is something I really struggle with, especially,
01:27:46.989 --> 01:27:50.750
Especially when she has this new boyfriend this
01:27:50.750 --> 01:27:55.090
season who's very, very Mormon. I feel like he
01:27:55.090 --> 01:27:57.369
wouldn't have liked that either if she was like,
01:27:57.550 --> 01:28:00.750
yeah, we're having sex, but I don't like it.
01:28:00.949 --> 01:28:04.810
They said that when they were at the at the car
01:28:04.810 --> 01:28:07.090
or like at the Ferris wheel, though, when they
01:28:07.090 --> 01:28:09.850
have sex. Yes. Yeah. She said, do you feel pressure
01:28:09.850 --> 01:28:11.890
to make me come? Like she said that to him. Oh,
01:28:12.149 --> 01:28:16.869
I don't remember. Yeah. What? Yeah. Oh. Is it
01:28:16.869 --> 01:28:19.390
because she said that on TV? Is that why she
01:28:19.390 --> 01:28:22.609
asked that? Because she said she's never come
01:28:22.609 --> 01:28:25.329
like on TV. Do you think that's why she's asking?
01:28:25.810 --> 01:28:30.449
Maybe. I don't know. But like. It is a hard situation.
01:28:30.449 --> 01:28:32.630
I feel like a piece of shit if I was that guy.
01:28:32.770 --> 01:28:36.890
I know. Make me come. I know, but I feel like
01:28:36.890 --> 01:28:39.329
it has little to do with him and everything to
01:28:39.329 --> 01:28:42.289
do with her. I think she feels so constricted
01:28:42.289 --> 01:28:45.069
and guilty about I think she has a very Jesus
01:28:45.069 --> 01:28:49.130
is watching kind of. Well, probably. But when
01:28:49.130 --> 01:28:51.510
you if you ever listen to Derek and Romaine,
01:28:51.510 --> 01:28:57.649
Romaine is like is is like a sexpert. And she
01:28:57.649 --> 01:29:02.039
talks a lot about how. With guys, it's very easy
01:29:02.039 --> 01:29:06.100
for a guy to get off in most scenarios. For a
01:29:06.100 --> 01:29:11.079
girl, it is very psychological. Yeah, it's a
01:29:11.079 --> 01:29:14.500
mental game more than anything. And I think she's
01:29:14.500 --> 01:29:17.699
losing that battle. I agree. Which is hard to
01:29:17.699 --> 01:29:22.260
watch. It is. I want her. I want nothing but
01:29:22.260 --> 01:29:24.039
good things for her. I think Layla is so cool.
01:29:24.100 --> 01:29:25.460
I know. Like, I want to be her friend really
01:29:25.460 --> 01:29:31.189
bad. I want her to be a squirt queen. She deserves
01:29:31.189 --> 01:29:34.409
it. She deserves it. We come to the final scene.
01:29:35.430 --> 01:29:39.489
Macy got a book deal, I guess. Are we reading
01:29:39.489 --> 01:29:42.029
this book? Are we going to read this book? Maybe
01:29:42.029 --> 01:29:46.729
only because have you gotten? No, it's the next
01:29:46.729 --> 01:29:51.289
episode. The one after what you're. So it must
01:29:51.289 --> 01:29:56.649
be episode five. She opens up more about. what
01:29:56.649 --> 01:29:59.489
the book is about okay and it's something very
01:29:59.489 --> 01:30:03.029
relatable to me okay so we'll get there cool
01:30:03.029 --> 01:30:06.829
it actually might be a good thing to talk about
01:30:06.829 --> 01:30:12.250
on the podcast okay yeah because basically her
01:30:12.250 --> 01:30:21.569
you know her son's dad died i think i i think
01:30:21.569 --> 01:30:25.380
i knew that yeah yeah that's basically the gist
01:30:25.380 --> 01:30:27.159
of it okay so she gets into this in the next
01:30:27.159 --> 01:30:29.960
episode yeah okay is she like that actually would
01:30:29.960 --> 01:30:31.359
be like you because you can relate to that a
01:30:31.359 --> 01:30:33.560
lot you should talk about that on the next episode
01:30:33.560 --> 01:30:35.800
when we recap that episode i'll talk about it
01:30:35.800 --> 01:30:37.699
because yeah it's actually like a very similar
01:30:37.699 --> 01:30:41.840
thing to what happened with jack's dad so yeah
01:30:41.840 --> 01:30:44.939
i'm also willing we're gonna read this book i've
01:30:44.939 --> 01:30:49.260
decided Yeah, I like Macy. I really do. She was
01:30:49.260 --> 01:30:52.760
my favorite this season. She gets more airtime
01:30:52.760 --> 01:30:56.100
in the later episodes, I feel like. She is just
01:30:56.100 --> 01:30:59.699
such a sweet, perfect angel, but she still lives
01:30:59.699 --> 01:31:02.039
for the drama. Do you feel like she kind of looks
01:31:02.039 --> 01:31:05.779
like Sidney Sweeney? Yeah, I can see that. Okay,
01:31:05.840 --> 01:31:08.140
because I started to see that in this episode,
01:31:08.199 --> 01:31:10.560
and I was like, oh, now I know who she looks
01:31:10.560 --> 01:31:12.199
like. I couldn't put my finger on who she looks
01:31:12.199 --> 01:31:15.449
like. They go to a restaurant. She is actually
01:31:15.449 --> 01:31:18.149
very beautiful. And she doesn't look like the
01:31:18.149 --> 01:31:22.430
rest of them. She does look different from the
01:31:22.430 --> 01:31:24.810
rest of them. She does look like Heather Gay's
01:31:24.810 --> 01:31:28.449
daughters, though. She does. She does look like
01:31:28.449 --> 01:31:30.569
Heather Gay's daughters. And I can tell that
01:31:30.569 --> 01:31:32.729
she has some filler, but she hasn't filled up
01:31:32.729 --> 01:31:34.770
her face. She hasn't overdone it, though. She's
01:31:34.770 --> 01:31:38.960
done work very well. Yeah. Love her. Love, love,
01:31:38.979 --> 01:31:41.619
love Macy. They go to a restaurant called Provisions
01:31:41.619 --> 01:31:43.520
where they've also gone on Real Housewives of
01:31:43.520 --> 01:31:46.060
Salt Lake City. And we will be going there when
01:31:46.060 --> 01:31:48.859
we take the pod to Salt Lake City. We have to.
01:31:51.840 --> 01:31:55.819
I didn't I didn't like Michaela showing up and
01:31:55.819 --> 01:31:58.479
like needing to do the whole song and dance of
01:31:58.479 --> 01:32:00.699
like the seating arrangement game. I hated that.
01:32:01.340 --> 01:32:05.319
I think people who focus so much on seating arrangements
01:32:05.319 --> 01:32:07.239
and who they're going to be next to and across
01:32:07.239 --> 01:32:11.319
from are weird. I think you're weird. I think.
01:32:11.380 --> 01:32:14.800
OK, so like I get if two people are mid fight,
01:32:14.920 --> 01:32:17.539
like they are literally at each other's throats
01:32:17.539 --> 01:32:21.100
and you want to separate them to keep your event
01:32:21.100 --> 01:32:24.939
on track. Yes. To announce your book. Fine. But
01:32:24.939 --> 01:32:28.680
other than that, fucking chill. Well, it's that
01:32:28.680 --> 01:32:34.420
and like. I can't right now in my life. I cannot
01:32:34.420 --> 01:32:36.520
think of one person. If you and I got invited
01:32:36.520 --> 01:32:40.100
to a dinner party and I found out that I was
01:32:40.100 --> 01:32:42.680
sitting next to anyone, I cannot think of one
01:32:42.680 --> 01:32:47.800
person who I'd be sitting next to where I would,
01:32:47.840 --> 01:32:50.180
I would have that reaction. Right. Even if it's
01:32:50.180 --> 01:32:53.220
someone I don't like. Right. Like, because we
01:32:53.220 --> 01:32:55.239
don't care. We've all been in that situation.
01:32:55.359 --> 01:32:59.180
Like the. We have a person in our life who there's
01:32:59.180 --> 01:33:07.000
been a lot of drama with recently and. I he's
01:33:07.000 --> 01:33:10.560
dead to me at this point, but if you sat me next
01:33:10.560 --> 01:33:11.920
to him at a dinner party, I just turn around
01:33:11.920 --> 01:33:14.539
and talk to you. Right. Like it doesn't really
01:33:14.539 --> 01:33:17.539
matter. And like, especially in an event like
01:33:17.539 --> 01:33:20.520
this, where like, you know, your friend is just
01:33:20.520 --> 01:33:24.399
putting this together to announce something like.
01:33:24.989 --> 01:33:28.550
You're not going to have to come up with conversation
01:33:28.550 --> 01:33:31.369
with these people for very long. Like, you're
01:33:31.369 --> 01:33:35.090
here for Macy. Right. So why are you being weird?
01:33:35.369 --> 01:33:40.369
Right. Whitney shows up and the clout conversation
01:33:40.369 --> 01:33:46.310
starts up again. Again. They're all there for
01:33:46.310 --> 01:33:48.850
clout. Right. Every single last one of them.
01:33:48.909 --> 01:33:52.069
Right. Including Taylor. It was started for clout.
01:33:52.109 --> 01:33:58.979
Right. So Whitney, though, I feel like I like
01:33:58.979 --> 01:34:01.880
how she's approaching trying to get back into
01:34:01.880 --> 01:34:03.800
the group where she's not she's not going too
01:34:03.800 --> 01:34:06.399
hard. She does come off a little desperate in
01:34:06.399 --> 01:34:07.760
her confessionals. I'm not going to lie to you.
01:34:07.840 --> 01:34:10.180
She is kissing their feet a little bit, but I
01:34:10.180 --> 01:34:12.539
feel like she has to. Yes. She's kissing the
01:34:12.539 --> 01:34:14.760
ring a little bit. She's like she's friends with
01:34:14.760 --> 01:34:17.119
Taylor. She's friends. She's like, I'm trying
01:34:17.119 --> 01:34:20.119
friendly with everyone. She's not letting really
01:34:20.119 --> 01:34:24.890
any of the conflict. stop her from being nice
01:34:24.890 --> 01:34:27.289
to everyone, which is the right strategy. A hundred
01:34:27.289 --> 01:34:28.810
percent. And so I think she's doing the right
01:34:28.810 --> 01:34:33.270
thing in this scenario. We start to talk about
01:34:33.270 --> 01:34:35.310
the book and then we find out Macy's dad gave
01:34:35.310 --> 01:34:37.649
her a journal when she first found out she was
01:34:37.649 --> 01:34:39.289
pregnant. And this is kind of what sparked the
01:34:39.289 --> 01:34:41.449
whole thing of like, I'm going to write down
01:34:41.449 --> 01:34:42.649
the good days. I'm going to write down the bad
01:34:42.649 --> 01:34:47.659
days and everything in between. And yeah. And
01:34:47.659 --> 01:34:49.659
I think that's kind of cool. And then Taylor
01:34:49.659 --> 01:34:51.979
was super, super supportive, which I really,
01:34:52.000 --> 01:34:53.399
really did like to see because I don't think
01:34:53.399 --> 01:34:55.439
she would have been this person a year ago. No.
01:34:55.939 --> 01:35:00.800
But did you see Demi's fucking face? Yes. So
01:35:00.800 --> 01:35:06.659
Jen gets up to hug to hug Macy and they cut to
01:35:06.659 --> 01:35:11.100
Demi, who is just rolling her eyes and she. She's
01:35:11.100 --> 01:35:15.420
so mad. She's so mad. Keep this in mind as you
01:35:15.420 --> 01:35:19.909
keep watching. how mad she looks. Yes. She is
01:35:19.909 --> 01:35:23.750
so weird. She's not friends with any of these
01:35:23.750 --> 01:35:25.550
people, I'm telling you. Well, the thing that
01:35:25.550 --> 01:35:27.689
I couldn't figure out, is she mad at Jen getting
01:35:27.689 --> 01:35:31.350
up to hug Macy, or is she mad at... She's mad
01:35:31.350 --> 01:35:33.489
that Macy got a book deal. Okay, so... She's
01:35:33.489 --> 01:35:36.050
mad that anyone gets anything that wasn't offered
01:35:36.050 --> 01:35:40.640
to her first. Interesting. OK. OK. Just wait.
01:35:40.840 --> 01:35:44.640
I cannot wait for you to see the fall of Denny.
01:35:44.680 --> 01:35:48.260
I can't wait. So Macy announces that she's also
01:35:48.260 --> 01:35:50.659
doing a celebrity pickleball tournament in Arizona,
01:35:50.739 --> 01:35:55.680
which I have a feeling celebrity is a word we're
01:35:55.680 --> 01:36:00.640
using very loosely. Yeah. It's like on the show,
01:36:00.659 --> 01:36:05.069
like when she does it and. There's another host
01:36:05.069 --> 01:36:06.890
there because she's like hosting it, right? She's
01:36:06.890 --> 01:36:09.670
like announcing. There's another one there who's
01:36:09.670 --> 01:36:12.489
allegedly a celebrity, too. I cannot for the
01:36:12.489 --> 01:36:15.390
life of me. If I recognize who they were, I don't
01:36:15.390 --> 01:36:18.590
remember it, which means they are not a celebrity.
01:36:18.909 --> 01:36:20.729
Well, that has to be coming up in the next episode.
01:36:20.850 --> 01:36:24.029
So I actually like I can't wait for this. And
01:36:24.029 --> 01:36:28.310
then the girls decide to do a truth box because
01:36:28.310 --> 01:36:34.180
they always go over so well. So they all throw
01:36:34.180 --> 01:36:38.020
in their little, like, their little cards. And
01:36:38.020 --> 01:36:40.399
they're all pretty inconsequential until we get
01:36:40.399 --> 01:36:42.939
to Taylor, who opens up the card that says, I
01:36:42.939 --> 01:36:46.420
think Jen is fake. And that's where the episode
01:36:46.420 --> 01:36:51.380
cliffhangs. Right. And I mean, obviously we get
01:36:51.380 --> 01:36:54.460
it. Jen has not been telling the truth to everyone.
01:36:54.600 --> 01:36:59.720
She's kind of spiraling out. Like, I don't know.
01:36:59.760 --> 01:37:03.300
She's like, I don't know. You need to watch the
01:37:03.300 --> 01:37:05.920
next episode because it's just T, T, T, T, T,
01:37:05.920 --> 01:37:09.680
T, T. I can't wait. Well, dear listener, that
01:37:09.680 --> 01:37:12.979
brings us to the end of the episode. Thank you
01:37:12.979 --> 01:37:15.760
for listening. We love you from the United States
01:37:15.760 --> 01:37:19.180
to the United Kingdom to Ireland to hopefully
01:37:19.180 --> 01:37:22.560
Italy soon. Please listen to us in Italy. We
01:37:22.560 --> 01:37:24.579
want to go to Italy. Listen to us in Iceland.
01:37:24.600 --> 01:37:28.000
I really want to go to Iceland really bad. Yeah.
01:37:28.380 --> 01:37:30.750
There's also. I was watching a YouTube video
01:37:30.750 --> 01:37:33.350
about Singapore and their airport. I want to
01:37:33.350 --> 01:37:36.609
visit the Singapore airport really bad. Kenny's
01:37:36.609 --> 01:37:38.789
been wanting to go to Singapore forever. Apparently,
01:37:38.789 --> 01:37:43.390
it's like really cool. A concept is Singapore
01:37:43.390 --> 01:37:46.949
bestie approved. We'll have to see. We'll have
01:37:46.949 --> 01:37:49.149
to see. It kind of gives me the vibes of Dubai,
01:37:49.329 --> 01:37:52.489
which is a topic for another episode. Anyway,
01:37:52.670 --> 01:37:55.869
we love you. Share us with your messiest friend.
01:37:55.989 --> 01:37:59.560
Follow us everywhere. We'll see you soon. Mwah!
