Moriah's got a gig, and Kim is dead set to ruin it. Barry wants to film it but mostly just wants to not make Kim mad. Honestly that's pretty much the episode but don't let me fool you - there is a LOT to say about family systems theory, consent, parenting, and more here. It's a wild one.

Christine tries to take her real estate license exam again, but she's struggling with self-confidence. The Brown family launches My Sister Wife's Closet, but why isn't anyone buying anything? Identity issues abounds as Kody and Christine in particular reveal a lot about themselves in this episode.

Moriah meets Max's mom who has amazing hair. I like her. Ethan struggles to reconnect with Olivia and decides to nuke his house from orbit. Worth a shot? And Kim is just the worst, you guys, and it's going to be more obvious next episode, so that's fun.

We say goodbye to Drake (a very good boy) and Meri, Leon, and Kody all process it in very different ways. Janelle is back in the gym with Sean. And Kody is being super crabby about Meri's countertop choices.
Seriously, he is!

UH, SURPRISE AGAIN.
It's kind of a long story? But I tell it in the podcast. I was able to sit down and talk to Meri Brown and Jenn Sullivan. We talked about a lot of stuff! How did Jenn end up being featured on the show? What is the biggest misconception folks still have about Meri? How does Jenn feel about being on the one-on-ones? How does Meri eat her celery? Does Adam become an honorary Salty Birch?
And I drop a Ron pun ...
Oliva has fled Ethan and she goes on a beach trip with Moriah and Helena that gets rained out. Micah goes on a tinder date and does some smooching. And Ethan? He tinkers with a motorcycle. Interesting stuff about friendships, identity, and culture here, so I hope you enjoy listening!

We're back to season 5, folks, and i'm tagging in some help.
I'll be honest, I was planning on taking a break from collaborations for a bit, but then this episode was a struggle for me right away. The Brown teenagers (or a few of them) go to meet with and help Holding out Help, the organization that helps former polygamists and cult members escape and establish their new lives.
Well, we all know a lot more about these things ...
No Plaths this week as I had the chance to discuss season 20, season 21, and more with Chris Farah of the Vanity Farah podcast (formerly of Docusweeties).
We talk about Kody, Robyn, Janelle, Christine, David, Meri, Jenn, RON, and a lot more. I lay out my dreams for season 21 (none of which are going to happen). There's some Special Forces talk, too. Lots going on in this one so we hope you enjoy!
Listen to Vanity Farah!
Season finale! And this was my favorite one-on-one or whatever, uh, ever? Also, if you like angry Adam this one is for you.
But we get into the catfishing! How Robyn knew someone who KNEW the catfish! We talk about Ron, thank GOD. Nothing is Kody's fault, and I read him the riot act over it. Meanwhile - why does Kody dislike Jenn, the world's best friend? I will tell you all about it.
Listent to my wife's new podcast Bookish ...
Olivia and Ethan are falling apart as Olivia goes to therapy. Max (who sucks) is absolutely horrible and I lose my mind. All that and more as the Plath family does what they do, and Moriah gets her big break, kind of!

Well my goodness, this is so fun. I was joined by Kara Berry of Everyone's Business but Mine to talk the penultimate episode of season 20 of Sister Wives!
We talk about Robyn's anger, David's... red flags, frankly, and especially the choice to try to get married on Meri's birthday. Oh, and we troll Robyn's instagram comments at the end and I nearly pass out from laughter. This was a joy.
Listen to Everyone's Business but Mine!
Max takes Lydia to pick out the broken promise ring. Ethan turns around in the middle of the street because Kim has to micromanage everything. Meanwhile, Isaac would just really like to golf a little bit, please.

Business is picking up! David is mad! Robyn is even more mad! Meri is steady, and Suki brings a lot more heat and pointed questions to the Browns and former Browns. This was a great episode in my opinion and I can't wait to hear what you think.

Welcome to Plathville will be back next week, but I had the chance to talk to Melanie and Cory of Notes to Self 444 about any number of things, including their first-hand experiences with the AUB - the same cult that brought us the Brown family. We talk all about that and a lot more, so I hope you enjoy.
Yeah, so this has been in the works for a while, and it happened. I was able to talk to Sukanya Krishnan about all kinds of Sister Wives and non-Sister Wives stuff.
The art of interviewing, the prep she has to do prior to filming the tell-alls, her dynamic with Kody, and who is the hardest cast member to interview?
Plus, I quiz her on her childhood crush, comfort food, and her entire career. It was way fun (and surreal!) to ...
Welcome... to the beginning of the end? Of season 20 at least. Which I did not realize until now. OOPS.
Sukanya is back! And so are the Browns and former Browns as we start the painful and delightful process of unpacking what on earth we all just spent several months watching. I'm so happy.

Kody meets with Meri to apologize, but it doesn't go very well at all. In fact, he reveals the major issue may be her friends don't seem to like him very much. Janelle frets that the church leaders of her former faith may not dissolve her spiritual marriage to Kody. Meanwhile, Christine is in the basement literally but no longer metaphorically.
