Hey, I had some thoughts I wanted 52 00:02:46.560 --> 00:02:50.800 to share with you. I am completely convinced that this 53 00:02:50.840 --> 00:02:56.560 is the last season four Sister Wives. Here's why. So 54 00:02:56.879 --> 00:02:59.560 they've been two years behind, and you guys talked about 55 00:02:59.560 --> 00:03:03.240 that early are and now all of a sudden, because 56 00:03:03.240 --> 00:03:05.719 of Garrison, they're going to have to bring it up 57 00:03:05.759 --> 00:03:09.280 to current day. And they've already talked about in the 58 00:03:09.319 --> 00:03:12.120 press release that they are going to be discussing Garrison's 59 00:03:12.199 --> 00:03:15.759 death at some point. So they're bringing it up to 60 00:03:15.800 --> 00:03:18.400 current day. And then what are they going to do. 61 00:03:18.479 --> 00:03:22.759 They're all over the country and the everything is changing. 62 00:03:24.199 --> 00:03:26.400 They're not going to have enough content. I don't think 63 00:03:26.560 --> 00:03:31.560 after this. Yes, that could be why Janelle moved and 64 00:03:32.560 --> 00:03:36.599 how Cody and Robin are selling the house and all 65 00:03:36.639 --> 00:03:39.719 of this stuff. I'm just really convinced that this is 66 00:03:39.800 --> 00:03:44.560 it so curious to hear your thoughts, but yeah, I mean, 67 00:03:44.680 --> 00:03:48.080 nothing that I've heard takes me away from that conclusion. 68 00:03:48.120 --> 00:03:52.360 It really sounds like that's what's happening. So Yep, they're 69 00:03:52.400 --> 00:03:55.719 going to have to find other jobs. Love it, Have 70 00:03:55.800 --> 00:03:57.319 a great day, guys, good bye. 71 00:03:58.520 --> 00:03:59.159 I do love that. 72 00:03:59.319 --> 00:03:59.759 I love it. 73 00:04:00.159 --> 00:04:02.039 Well, Well, what are your thoughts? What do you think? 74 00:04:02.240 --> 00:04:04.639 I mean, I feel like we're at a crossroads. Like 75 00:04:04.680 --> 00:04:07.439 I feel like we could just cancel the show right 76 00:04:07.439 --> 00:04:11.039 now because it's not really Sister Wives anymore. It's Cody 77 00:04:11.080 --> 00:04:13.879 and Robin and then the OG three, which everybody I 78 00:04:13.879 --> 00:04:16.279 think would want to see a spinoff of the OG three, 79 00:04:16.600 --> 00:04:19.319 like I would want to see what Janelle's doing in 80 00:04:19.360 --> 00:04:21.920 her life and all that kind of stuff. But I 81 00:04:21.920 --> 00:04:24.600 could see a world where it gets canceled. But I 82 00:04:24.639 --> 00:04:27.319 feel like it won't. I feel like they're gonna keep 83 00:04:27.360 --> 00:04:29.360 going at least to season twenty. 84 00:04:30.120 --> 00:04:34.680 Yeah. I think that this being the highest rated show 85 00:04:34.879 --> 00:04:39.399 on TLC, this production company and this family, well in 86 00:04:39.399 --> 00:04:43.800 particular Cody Brown, is very interested in keeping the show going. 87 00:04:44.279 --> 00:04:46.399 They might have to get creative. They might have to 88 00:04:47.000 --> 00:04:50.800 rethink how they want to show us this family. Whether 89 00:04:50.800 --> 00:04:53.519 we're going to go to North Carolina with ta Ada 90 00:04:53.600 --> 00:04:56.879 Farms and Janelle and Maddie and Caleb. What are we 91 00:04:56.959 --> 00:04:59.759 going to spend more time with Christine and then there's 92 00:04:59.800 --> 00:05:03.120 ma Her haunted BnB. I mean I just don't know 93 00:05:03.160 --> 00:05:08.199 if there's enough there though, to make a compelling show. 94 00:05:08.519 --> 00:05:13.079 What makes Sister Wives compelling is the underlying family dynamics, 95 00:05:13.079 --> 00:05:15.439 which now in the last few seasons have come to 96 00:05:15.480 --> 00:05:18.360 the surface and so it's full on drama and we've 97 00:05:18.360 --> 00:05:20.879 been waiting for it, and that's what makes it good, 98 00:05:21.160 --> 00:05:23.480 which is why I was saying last week that I 99 00:05:23.519 --> 00:05:28.040 think Cody really is invested in portraying a villain. Whether 100 00:05:28.079 --> 00:05:29.800 he feels that way or not, I feel like he 101 00:05:29.959 --> 00:05:33.079 thinks he needs to do that in order to keep 102 00:05:33.120 --> 00:05:36.959 this on the television. So I think they're going to 103 00:05:37.040 --> 00:05:39.959 really want to try and create some additional seasons. I 104 00:05:40.040 --> 00:05:42.279 just don't know what we're going to do. And furthermore, 105 00:05:42.480 --> 00:05:45.639 if I may, they're going to do what they did 106 00:05:45.639 --> 00:05:49.000 with Christine's wedding last year. They're going to fast forward 107 00:05:49.079 --> 00:05:51.800 us to an event that happens in a current timeline, 108 00:05:52.199 --> 00:05:55.240 and then in the next consecutive season they're going to 109 00:05:55.319 --> 00:05:58.000 go right back to two years ago. Of course, they 110 00:05:58.000 --> 00:06:00.439 don't give a shit. This is how they do it. 111 00:06:00.800 --> 00:06:03.000 Yeah, And I think that's why the show goes on 112 00:06:03.199 --> 00:06:06.079 because they do backlog their content because they don't really 113 00:06:06.079 --> 00:06:09.480 have a lot going on in general, Like even season seventeen, 114 00:06:09.560 --> 00:06:12.399 it's like the biggest thing was Christine leaving, right, But like, 115 00:06:12.480 --> 00:06:16.519 prior to that, what were we watching? Like nothing? Really, 116 00:06:16.600 --> 00:06:19.319 I mean we were watching Cody and Robin, b Cody 117 00:06:19.360 --> 00:06:22.839 and Robin and then the OG three you know, going 118 00:06:22.879 --> 00:06:25.079 too like a picnic or like something dumb like that. 119 00:06:25.720 --> 00:06:28.839 So yeah, I feel like they're gonna either have to 120 00:06:28.879 --> 00:06:33.399 manufacture content or continue giving us old shit just to 121 00:06:33.480 --> 00:06:35.920 keep the show running. Because Cody and Robin do need 122 00:06:35.920 --> 00:06:38.360 a paycheck, they do need a job, yes, so I 123 00:06:38.360 --> 00:06:41.160 feel like they're gonna want the show to continue. 124 00:06:41.720 --> 00:06:44.240 Yeah, but the only reason you've got the ratings you 125 00:06:44.279 --> 00:06:46.759 have right now is because the wives and the kids 126 00:06:46.800 --> 00:06:50.040 have left you. That's really the only reason because previous 127 00:06:50.040 --> 00:06:52.319 to that, like you said, it was boring, although I 128 00:06:52.319 --> 00:06:55.519 think a lot of us watched because, uh, in some 129 00:06:55.680 --> 00:06:58.560 ways it was interesting to see this family try to 130 00:06:58.639 --> 00:07:02.360 function and be together and that was I think compelling television. 131 00:07:02.399 --> 00:07:04.600 But like now, the reason you've got people here is 132 00:07:04.639 --> 00:07:08.079 because the ship is sinking. Yeah, so you're gonna have 133 00:07:08.120 --> 00:07:11.480 the same problem as something like a Real Housewives franchise, 134 00:07:11.839 --> 00:07:14.639 which kind of started out in this innocent space of 135 00:07:14.680 --> 00:07:18.519 like housewives and friends and lots of money and travel 136 00:07:18.600 --> 00:07:22.240 and then turned into this garbage dumpster fire of toxic 137 00:07:22.279 --> 00:07:26.079 women literally fighting each other, like I feel like, in 138 00:07:26.199 --> 00:07:29.759 order to maintain the ratings we have now, it's gonna 139 00:07:29.800 --> 00:07:32.680 have to stay dramatic, which I think Cody is willing 140 00:07:32.720 --> 00:07:35.399 to do, and so is Robin, though she's gonna pretend 141 00:07:35.480 --> 00:07:37.639 that she doesn't like it, right, and it's gonna be 142 00:07:37.680 --> 00:07:39.920 the other wives who probably walk away at some point. 143 00:07:39.959 --> 00:07:42.040 I don't think Janelle feels like she needs this. 144 00:07:42.360 --> 00:07:44.560 No, I mean, she's gonna make money with her farm 145 00:07:44.639 --> 00:07:48.000 and living with Maddie and Caleb and she'll be fine, 146 00:07:48.000 --> 00:07:50.480 And same with Christine. She's got her own bullshit, Mary's 147 00:07:50.480 --> 00:07:54.959 got her NLMs, like they're gonna be fine. But yeah, 148 00:07:55.040 --> 00:07:58.199 I mean it might turn into like Welcome to Blatfell, 149 00:07:58.279 --> 00:08:02.439 like this Currencys, where it's everybody's gotten divorced and now 150 00:08:02.439 --> 00:08:06.399 we're just manufacturing bullshit that nobody wants to see. 151 00:08:06.519 --> 00:08:10.839 Yep, Olivia speed dating, introducing characters nobody cares about. 152 00:08:10.720 --> 00:08:13.199 Like literally, no one cares so unless you're gonna give 153 00:08:13.240 --> 00:08:16.920 us real stuff or drama, because everybody's addicted to drama 154 00:08:16.959 --> 00:08:19.319 and toxic trash, then nobody's gonna want to watch. 155 00:08:19.639 --> 00:08:24.120 Yeah. I like the direction it's going right now, though, 156 00:08:24.199 --> 00:08:27.680 because we're actually having some of the wives talk about 157 00:08:27.800 --> 00:08:31.360 the real shit. We're actually getting into Coyote Pass, we're 158 00:08:31.360 --> 00:08:35.559 getting into who's on the deed, we're getting into lawyers. 159 00:08:35.159 --> 00:08:38.240 And all this stuff we've been rabig about for years 160 00:08:38.399 --> 00:08:39.240 be addressed. 161 00:08:39.279 --> 00:08:41.559 So this is good. I'm just wondering if they're gonna 162 00:08:41.639 --> 00:08:44.480 keep it up. I'm wondering if production is actually tapped 163 00:08:44.480 --> 00:08:46.279 in with what most of us want, or if it's 164 00:08:46.279 --> 00:08:49.399 gonna fall apart, you know, and get super boring and 165 00:08:49.399 --> 00:08:51.840 a lot of Michelty and Tony and twins and stuff. 166 00:08:52.039 --> 00:08:54.840 I don't care about you being there at the birth, Robin, 167 00:08:55.000 --> 00:08:56.279 I don't care about that. 168 00:08:56.440 --> 00:08:59.320 Good it's probably gonna be a lot of that. No, 169 00:09:00.240 --> 00:09:02.559 we don't need that. But TLC has a history of 170 00:09:02.679 --> 00:09:04.679 not giving a shit about their fans, so they still 171 00:09:04.720 --> 00:09:05.200 want to do it. 172 00:09:05.480 --> 00:09:06.480 Why would they change it? 173 00:09:06.600 --> 00:09:09.000 Exactly if they've got the highest ratings ever, why would 174 00:09:09.039 --> 00:09:10.639 they change anything in the formula. 175 00:09:10.720 --> 00:09:15.559 They wouldn't. But I foresee certainly a season twenty yeah, 176 00:09:15.559 --> 00:09:20.000 and probably continuing to twenty one. Twenty two, twenty five. 177 00:09:20.679 --> 00:09:22.919 For real, I think we have a few years of 178 00:09:22.919 --> 00:09:24.720 them trying to cobble it together. I don't know if 179 00:09:24.720 --> 00:09:26.519 it's going to work, but they are going to try 180 00:09:26.519 --> 00:09:27.519 because it's a cash cow. 181 00:09:27.799 --> 00:09:29.960 Yeah, that's true. I mean I can see up to 182 00:09:30.000 --> 00:09:31.120 twenty But then after. 183 00:09:30.919 --> 00:09:32.679 That, I'm like, what are we doing here? 184 00:09:32.720 --> 00:09:34.279 What are we gonna watch? I mean, I'm still going 185 00:09:34.360 --> 00:09:38.159 to watch them. Yeah, we're still watching. We're still in 186 00:09:38.200 --> 00:09:41.360 the dumpster together, Like we're still doing rewind episodes and 187 00:09:41.440 --> 00:09:44.440 I boring ass season, So like we're still going to 188 00:09:44.519 --> 00:09:44.960 watch it. 189 00:09:44.919 --> 00:09:47.840 And people that's like some of our most downloaded content 190 00:09:48.080 --> 00:09:52.720 on the audio podcast. Everybody loves it. So we're still 191 00:09:52.759 --> 00:09:54.639 talking about it. Yeah, we're still here, honey. 192 00:09:54.720 --> 00:09:56.080 So I feel like if people are still going to 193 00:09:56.159 --> 00:09:57.080 talk about it, it's still going. 194 00:09:57.080 --> 00:09:57.399 To go on. 195 00:09:57.559 --> 00:10:01.360 Yep, even if it's going to be boring af yep. Lord, 196 00:10:01.399 --> 00:10:04.960 But you know what's not boring? Christine is going to 197 00:10:05.039 --> 00:10:13.480 be suing Cody Brown bitch, Oh I love it last week? Yes, 198 00:10:13.720 --> 00:10:18.080 tell us, Well, Christine is going to sue Cody, or 199 00:10:18.200 --> 00:10:21.879 is already suing Cody for retroactive child support up to 200 00:10:21.919 --> 00:10:26.559 four years and custody, yes, truly, so probably full custody, 201 00:10:26.639 --> 00:10:29.080 I'm assuming, yeah, which I love. 202 00:10:29.600 --> 00:10:31.879 I love it as well. She's fully entitled to it. 203 00:10:32.080 --> 00:10:32.360 Uh huh. 204 00:10:32.399 --> 00:10:34.360 They're probably going to have to do some kind of 205 00:10:34.360 --> 00:10:37.519 a paternity test because I don't think that's customary in 206 00:10:37.600 --> 00:10:41.480 polygamous families. Right, he's obviously the father. All those kids 207 00:10:41.480 --> 00:10:44.200 look the same. Yeah, and he's going to be on 208 00:10:44.240 --> 00:10:47.960 the hook based on what he makes. And if this 209 00:10:48.080 --> 00:10:51.399 goes to say trial, and if we have something like 210 00:10:51.600 --> 00:10:55.399 discovery and even depositions and we're going to go on record, 211 00:10:55.440 --> 00:10:58.600 we're going to be able to see some of the 212 00:10:58.639 --> 00:11:01.080 financials unless to keep it private. I don't know if 213 00:11:01.120 --> 00:11:05.440 they can. I'm not a lawyer, but hopefully Cody has 214 00:11:05.480 --> 00:11:08.600 some intelligence and he's like, okay, let's just settle this. 215 00:11:08.679 --> 00:11:11.879 I agree to whatever. But she's entitled to it. And 216 00:11:11.960 --> 00:11:14.759 I think it's very interesting that she waited until truly 217 00:11:14.879 --> 00:11:18.879 was fourteen to do it, because that is the age 218 00:11:18.919 --> 00:11:22.320 of I don't what do you call it agency? I 219 00:11:22.360 --> 00:11:24.200 don't want to say consent because that's not the right thing. 220 00:11:24.240 --> 00:11:27.200 Is she can choose where she lives and what parents 221 00:11:27.279 --> 00:11:30.039 she spends her time with, and so truly can choose 222 00:11:30.080 --> 00:11:33.399 to stay with Christine. He can't use visitation and custody 223 00:11:33.440 --> 00:11:35.919 in that way to hang over Christine's head. 224 00:11:36.080 --> 00:11:38.519 Ooh, so she did it on purpose like that, because 225 00:11:38.559 --> 00:11:41.360 he would have thought it in court if she did 226 00:11:41.360 --> 00:11:43.799 it earlier than this, because then he would been like, oh, 227 00:11:43.840 --> 00:11:49.120 she's withholding custody of truly, like she's the evil person, 228 00:11:49.159 --> 00:11:51.320 Like I shouldn't have to pay child support, but now 229 00:11:51.320 --> 00:11:53.440 it's different. Now you do have to. 230 00:11:53.720 --> 00:11:57.960 Custody interestingly, is not attached to visitation. Those are separate things. 231 00:11:57.960 --> 00:12:00.759 Sometimes people try to make it an issue. No, even 232 00:12:00.879 --> 00:12:02.799 if you never see your kid, you are still on 233 00:12:02.879 --> 00:12:04.240 the hook to pay for that kid. 234 00:12:04.440 --> 00:12:04.679 Yep. 235 00:12:04.879 --> 00:12:08.559 But he would have probably tried to do something manipulative like, Okay, 236 00:12:08.600 --> 00:12:12.080 well I want to see truly fifty percent of the time. Yes, 237 00:12:12.120 --> 00:12:15.519 and so truly truly fifteen percent of the time. And 238 00:12:15.600 --> 00:12:18.039 so Christine, you're gonna have to drive your happy ass 239 00:12:18.039 --> 00:12:20.320 from Salt Lake City the flag Staff twice a month. 240 00:12:20.360 --> 00:12:21.919 I'll do it twice a month, and she's gonna have 241 00:12:21.919 --> 00:12:23.840 to stay here, yeah, and maybe go to school here. 242 00:12:23.840 --> 00:12:26.440 He would have tried to do something like that definitly. 243 00:12:26.480 --> 00:12:28.399 So that's why she waited and she was smart to 244 00:12:28.440 --> 00:12:28.759 do so. 245 00:12:29.360 --> 00:12:32.240 I love to see it, and I hope she gets 246 00:12:32.279 --> 00:12:34.240 a lot of money in child sport, because it's not 247 00:12:34.279 --> 00:12:36.759 like she's itching for money. It's not like she's poor, 248 00:12:37.159 --> 00:12:39.720 she's successful. She's just doing this just to get at 249 00:12:39.759 --> 00:12:42.559 Cody for all of the years he's robbed all of 250 00:12:42.600 --> 00:12:48.039 the wives with der mcmhonsion and the weird figurines. 251 00:12:47.440 --> 00:12:50.519 The assets, or as Mattie says, the assets. 252 00:12:50.080 --> 00:12:52.840 Oh my god, and Robin's kids' cars. 253 00:12:52.720 --> 00:12:55.399 Right, yeah, the fleet of cars that belong to Robin 254 00:12:55.559 --> 00:12:56.399 and her children. 255 00:12:57.360 --> 00:12:57.759 Yeah. 256 00:12:57.919 --> 00:13:00.759 I think it's really interesting also that it's ropping kind 257 00:13:00.759 --> 00:13:03.279 of at the same time that we have on the 258 00:13:03.320 --> 00:13:07.200 television Janelle talking about lawyering up and having this stuff 259 00:13:07.320 --> 00:13:09.559 kind of in the atmosphere. 260 00:13:09.720 --> 00:13:13.159 I love to see it, me too, want more of it, 261 00:13:13.279 --> 00:13:13.559 me too. 262 00:13:13.639 --> 00:13:15.720 And even if she doesn't need the money, technically she 263 00:13:15.759 --> 00:13:17.960 can just put that right into a college fund, right 264 00:13:18.000 --> 00:13:20.840 into any kind of fund that truly can draw from, 265 00:13:20.879 --> 00:13:23.000 like she's eighteen, because you know Cody's not going to 266 00:13:23.000 --> 00:13:25.720 be supporting her. We know Cody doesn't give a crap 267 00:13:25.799 --> 00:13:27.600 about truly, no, not at all. 268 00:13:27.879 --> 00:13:29.799 He went to go make out with Robin when she 269 00:13:29.960 --> 00:13:31.159 was getting bored. 270 00:13:31.279 --> 00:13:33.879 Yes, like what the well? And last week at the 271 00:13:33.879 --> 00:13:37.440 Sprinkle he's playing with Avalon and he's not even acknowledging 272 00:13:37.480 --> 00:13:40.120 truly his daughter's sitting right there on the couch. 273 00:13:40.200 --> 00:13:43.080 Yeah, she's just sitting there, staring off into space. So 274 00:13:43.320 --> 00:13:44.279 Dad doesn't give a shit. 275 00:13:44.399 --> 00:13:51.480 Make him pay Drag, drag drag. It's about damn time. Real, 276 00:13:51.759 --> 00:13:56.759 it's a justice indeed, Lizzo. All right, So let's get 277 00:13:56.799 --> 00:14:01.840 into the episode again, Season nineteen, episode two entitled. 278 00:14:01.759 --> 00:14:06.000 Let There Be Light. Yes, interesting title. Yes, it starts 279 00:14:06.000 --> 00:14:08.600 off pretty strong because you get right into the Coyote 280 00:14:08.639 --> 00:14:12.879 Pass discussion, and it's with Janelle and Maddie because they're 281 00:14:12.919 --> 00:14:15.960 heading up to Montana to go look at property and 282 00:14:16.000 --> 00:14:19.840 they're in the car talking about Coyote Pass and how 283 00:14:19.840 --> 00:14:22.600 it needs to be paid off because apparently they still 284 00:14:22.600 --> 00:14:24.679 haven't paid it off. I mean, this is twenty twenty 285 00:14:24.720 --> 00:14:27.480 two right right now, so we already know it's been 286 00:14:27.519 --> 00:14:32.080 paid off. But they're talking about Cody dragging his feet 287 00:14:32.159 --> 00:14:35.440 essentially like he's not prioritizing it. He doesn't really give 288 00:14:35.480 --> 00:14:38.000 a shit. He's not talking to Janelle about it. She 289 00:14:38.080 --> 00:14:40.519 wants a paid off so she can be done and 290 00:14:40.600 --> 00:14:43.320 free from him, which is fair. 291 00:14:43.240 --> 00:14:48.639 Yes one. And apparently, according to Janelle, Cody is not 292 00:14:48.759 --> 00:14:51.919 just dragging his feet and not doing anything to pay 293 00:14:51.919 --> 00:14:55.039 it off, but he's also not communicating with her and 294 00:14:55.080 --> 00:14:57.960 telling her what the status of the property is and 295 00:14:58.000 --> 00:15:00.879 what the plant, the over arching plant to pay off 296 00:15:00.919 --> 00:15:03.039 the properties are, Like, he's just not doing it. And 297 00:15:03.039 --> 00:15:06.600 then we have that lovely interstitial of him saying, yeah, well, 298 00:15:06.639 --> 00:15:09.399 I don't talk to her about the property because that's 299 00:15:09.559 --> 00:15:13.600 just information for the gossip mill, which I think is 300 00:15:14.279 --> 00:15:17.759 him saying that Janelle will tell Maddie. I think it's 301 00:15:17.840 --> 00:15:20.639 kind of coming out. It's becoming clearer and clearer that 302 00:15:21.600 --> 00:15:25.000 Cody thinks Maddie is a problem. Yeah, and she's kind 303 00:15:25.039 --> 00:15:28.080 of one of those kids who feels superior, who's in 304 00:15:28.120 --> 00:15:30.720 a club and who is gossiping all the time about 305 00:15:30.799 --> 00:15:32.600 him and Robin. So he doesn't want to talk to 306 00:15:32.679 --> 00:15:35.320 Janelle because Janelle's going to talk to Maddie and then 307 00:15:35.360 --> 00:15:37.240 the rest of the kids are going to hear about 308 00:15:37.679 --> 00:15:39.960 what his plans are financially. 309 00:15:39.840 --> 00:15:42.159 And that's so fucked up. And I think that shows 310 00:15:42.320 --> 00:15:46.360 his financial abuse because he's you're not the sole owner 311 00:15:46.399 --> 00:15:49.080 of this property, Like Janelle's name is on this shit, 312 00:15:49.200 --> 00:15:51.840 So you don't you don't get to do that, my guy, 313 00:15:52.240 --> 00:15:55.879 just because you're worried about your adult child who's like, 314 00:15:55.919 --> 00:15:58.840 I don't know, thirty or something heading toward Yeah, something 315 00:15:58.879 --> 00:16:01.320 like that, Like who gives shit what she says about you? 316 00:16:01.960 --> 00:16:03.080 Maybe be a better person. 317 00:16:03.399 --> 00:16:05.159 Well, I would give a shit if I knew that 318 00:16:05.200 --> 00:16:07.279 one of my children was a hound dog who was 319 00:16:07.320 --> 00:16:10.320 pissed off about her mother getting the short end of 320 00:16:10.360 --> 00:16:14.919 the stick and having her know about my financial situation 321 00:16:15.120 --> 00:16:18.480 and know about all the art and all the phoenix's 322 00:16:18.600 --> 00:16:22.399 rising and bears that are hugging, and crystal towers and 323 00:16:22.440 --> 00:16:26.399 Dickensie and villages, like Maddie already knows about that, because 324 00:16:26.440 --> 00:16:29.639 as they're in the car, Janelle talks about how Cody 325 00:16:29.759 --> 00:16:34.480 has been storing assets trailers, and then of course this artwork. 326 00:16:34.559 --> 00:16:37.519 She actually calls out the artwork and they included in 327 00:16:37.559 --> 00:16:40.960 the episode, which I love because of course Cody and 328 00:16:41.039 --> 00:16:42.799 Robin have just put up their house. We saw a 329 00:16:42.840 --> 00:16:45.919 little bit of that artwork, so obviously the kids are 330 00:16:45.919 --> 00:16:48.720 seeing this too. The wives are seeing this, and Janelle 331 00:16:48.720 --> 00:16:52.080 says something like it was my kids who were getting 332 00:16:52.120 --> 00:16:54.679 pissed off my adult children. And when I finally began 333 00:16:54.799 --> 00:16:56.840 to see, oh, yeah, this isn't fair, it was because 334 00:16:56.879 --> 00:16:57.519 of my kids. 335 00:16:57.639 --> 00:17:00.879 Yes, she even talks about like looking back through all 336 00:17:00.879 --> 00:17:03.080 the years and how she would be stuck in a 337 00:17:03.120 --> 00:17:06.720 rental or she'd be having to get used stuff or 338 00:17:06.839 --> 00:17:10.559 use furniture or whatever. Meanwhile, Robin's backyard is fully finished, 339 00:17:10.559 --> 00:17:13.119 and Robin's got all this artwork, and her house is 340 00:17:13.160 --> 00:17:16.759 bigger and it's nicer, and she'd be like, huh, that's weird. 341 00:17:17.119 --> 00:17:19.200 M hmm. I think Janelle was in denial for a 342 00:17:19.200 --> 00:17:22.039 long time because she didn't want to think that this 343 00:17:22.119 --> 00:17:25.079 guy she had trusted for thirty years or whatever would 344 00:17:25.079 --> 00:17:27.279 do something so heinous. But he has been doing it 345 00:17:27.279 --> 00:17:28.000 this entire time. 346 00:17:28.160 --> 00:17:32.319 Yeah, And that kind of leads me to this question 347 00:17:32.400 --> 00:17:34.720 that I have about Janelle, because she's often referred to 348 00:17:35.160 --> 00:17:40.279 like the record keeper and the financially astute wife and 349 00:17:40.279 --> 00:17:43.400 the one who's bookkeeping everything and sees all the numbers 350 00:17:43.440 --> 00:17:47.000 and like does the taxes and stuff like that. But Janelle, 351 00:17:47.680 --> 00:17:51.359 why did you set yourself up to walk away with nothing? 352 00:17:51.400 --> 00:17:54.680 Because at this point, as she's having this conversation with Maddie. 353 00:17:55.079 --> 00:17:58.160 Cody could conceivably make the choice not to pay anything 354 00:17:58.200 --> 00:18:00.960 further on the property on his end, and anything she 355 00:18:01.000 --> 00:18:03.880 put toward it would just go away because that owner, 356 00:18:03.920 --> 00:18:07.039 that ultimate owner, who creatively financed it, said, look, you've 357 00:18:07.039 --> 00:18:08.519 got a balloon payment. If you don't pay it, you 358 00:18:08.559 --> 00:18:09.319 don't get anything. 359 00:18:09.559 --> 00:18:09.680 Right. 360 00:18:09.799 --> 00:18:12.440 So Janelle not just loses the property, but any money 361 00:18:12.440 --> 00:18:14.960 that she's put toward the property, because he has all 362 00:18:15.000 --> 00:18:20.400 the power. Janelle, how did this happen? And what I 363 00:18:20.440 --> 00:18:25.200 think it is is it's her faith, yep. And I 364 00:18:25.240 --> 00:18:29.960 think it's the fact that she trusted her faith, her religion, 365 00:18:30.559 --> 00:18:34.759 and how Cody was framed within that to trust that 366 00:18:34.880 --> 00:18:37.119 he would never hurt her or her children, And so 367 00:18:37.240 --> 00:18:40.319 it was hard for her to actually see what her 368 00:18:40.400 --> 00:18:42.680 kids could see as they got older, that it was 369 00:18:42.839 --> 00:18:45.640 unfair polygmya is unfair to women, and she was getting 370 00:18:45.680 --> 00:18:48.880 the short end of the stick. But you're not that smart. 371 00:18:49.319 --> 00:18:51.799 I mean, I believe things that are kookie. 372 00:18:52.079 --> 00:18:55.720 Yeah, my faith is a little weird, but I mean 373 00:18:55.960 --> 00:18:57.559 I can also look at a ledger. 374 00:18:57.599 --> 00:18:59.400 I can also look at an account. I can also 375 00:18:59.480 --> 00:19:02.240 see where the money is going out of the family 376 00:19:02.559 --> 00:19:05.319 LLC and where it's going to and she has said 377 00:19:05.319 --> 00:19:07.799 in previous seasons, I see where it goes. Yeah, do 378 00:19:07.839 --> 00:19:09.039 you really need all that stuff? 379 00:19:09.079 --> 00:19:09.359 Really? 380 00:19:09.400 --> 00:19:11.279 I can't have a casita, but you can have the 381 00:19:11.319 --> 00:19:14.720 Dickenzian village. Why did she do it? I don't get it, 382 00:19:14.799 --> 00:19:17.640 other than the faith part, But even then it doesn't 383 00:19:17.680 --> 00:19:19.799 make sense to me. Beatrice, I don't know. 384 00:19:20.079 --> 00:19:22.319 I look at her and I'm like, maybe it's because 385 00:19:22.359 --> 00:19:25.480 she was easily manipulated because of the faith, because like 386 00:19:26.039 --> 00:19:29.200 Mary had her own separate money. But Mary was still 387 00:19:29.240 --> 00:19:33.119 stupid and like really crazy loyal to Cody for over 388 00:19:33.160 --> 00:19:35.079 a decade when he didn't give a shit about her. 389 00:19:35.559 --> 00:19:38.960 Christine was loyal until the point where he cut off 390 00:19:38.960 --> 00:19:41.240 all intimacy. It was like we're not gonna have a marriage, 391 00:19:41.279 --> 00:19:44.640 and then she's like, okaybye, I'm done. But she still 392 00:19:44.640 --> 00:19:47.000 had separate finances. But like Janelle, I feel like was 393 00:19:47.039 --> 00:19:50.039 the one Cody was able to manipulate the most and 394 00:19:50.119 --> 00:19:52.039 be like no, like it's for the greater good, Like 395 00:19:52.079 --> 00:19:54.160 this would be really fair for the family, if like 396 00:19:54.200 --> 00:19:56.119 you could help us out with that, and if you 397 00:19:56.160 --> 00:19:58.559 could maybe convince one of the other wives or something 398 00:19:58.559 --> 00:20:00.519 to help us with this or whatever, like, can you 399 00:20:00.559 --> 00:20:03.000 do that? Can you move things around? Like? I think 400 00:20:03.200 --> 00:20:06.079 she was just coerced into it. 401 00:20:06.359 --> 00:20:10.759
