  • Coyote Pass Awkward Car Standoff & Scruffy-Beard Debates 😂 | S20 Ep 8 Reaction
    In this episode, we’re reacting to Sister Wives Season 20 Episode 8, and wow… Coyote Pass finally sells, but not without a super awkward Brown family moment. Janelle, Meri, Kody, and Robyn all show up to sign the paperwork—only to sit in their cars in a full-on standoff where nobody wants to get out first. 😅We also touch on the Browns’ odd plural-family finances and how their setup created tension long before this moment.And of course, we had to poke a little fun at ourselves when the episode sparked a totally random conversation about whether women really like kissing scruffy facial hair or not. 😂Join us as we unpack the awkwardness, the tension, and the humor in this week’s episode — all from the perspectives of an ex-FLDS member and a former mainstream Mormon.👇 Let us know in the comments: Would YOU have gotten out of the car first at Coyote Pass?If you or someone you love has left polygamy and needs assistance, please reach out to "Holding Out HELP" at 801-548-3492 or visit their website at www.holdingouthelp.org

  • Mormon Dances, Weddings & ‘Enduring to the End’ | Sister Wives S20 Ep 7 Reaction
    In this week’s episode of Sister Wives, we couldn’t help but notice how uncomfortable things felt between Kody and Robyn — especially during those dancing moments. It brought back memories of Mormon church dances and wedding receptions, including our own, and how deeply those experiences reflect the culture we grew up in.We also dive into how polygamy and Mormonism often frame jealousy and suffering as spiritual growth — that women are supposed to overcome jealousy to “become better,” and that faith means learning to endure to the end. But what happens when “enduring” starts to mean not living?Join us as we react to Sister Wives Season 20, Episode 7 and talk about the deeper beliefs behind the culture — where joy is often postponed for a promised reward in the next life.If you or someone you love has left polygamy and needs assistance, please reach out to "Holding Out HELP" at 801-548-3492 or visit their website at www.holdingouthelp.orgAt Growing Up In Polygamy our mission is to "Create compassion for communities that have been misunderstood, marginalized and/or abused by their leaders, and to empower those who have left by giving them a platform to share their stories with the world."If you would like to DONATE to this cause you can do so here: https://donorbox.org/growing-up-in-polygamyInsta: @growingupinpolygamyNew website is now up! www.growingupinpolygamy.comTheme Song created by @artcowles Please feel free to reach out to [email protected]

  • Kody Makes Aurora’s Relationship About HIM?! | Sister Wives S20E5
