Speaker 1 (00:04):
Hello, and welcome to Reality TV Cringe. I'm one of
your hosts, Delia the Redhead. I'm here with my real
tight homegirl and my daughter in law, Beatra, that's the Greenhead.
We are here unfortunately under duress, bitch, to talk about
(00:28):
poly family.
Speaker 2 (00:29):
But we're finally done with it.
Speaker 1 (00:30):
This is the the net. We have to talk about
how TLC pulled the plug on this prematurely, but before
we do, we have to warn you to please hide
your wife and hide your kids. This is a politically
incorrect podcast. Do we see a lot of bedwords. We
have dumb opinions. We're not going to apologize. No, So
(00:52):
if you I don't know why you're here, you might
want to find yourself another dumpster. But if you're ready
to meet your long distance girlfriend in the dumpster, welcome
well to this dumpster.

bonus stuff up on their uncensored videos after shows. We
just started covering the Valley.
Speaker 1 (01:23):
The Valley with Jack's Taylor.
Speaker 2 (01:26):
My got so crazy, Britney Cartwright crashing out and rehab
and everything rage.
Speaker 1 (01:33):

And when we're getting fatter, we're winning, bitch, and so
(01:57):
everything you do truly helps. Thank you. Inving news. So
they pulled the plug, honestly, I'm glad, and they did
it in such a strange way, very weird. They aired
two episodes on the same night, which was last Tuesday,
(02:19):
and they kind of left us with other storylines somewhat hanging. Yeah,
this Alexi girl, we'll get there, and the vasectomy stuff
and Alicia clearly being bullied in abusey. Yeah, there's a
lot going on. Like it's just done, done, it's over.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Honestly good.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Why do you think they did that?
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Because they're terrible because of all the allegations that came
out of Sean, because he's allegedly a predator in our
pinesting degenerate in our opinion, and like maybe because it
didn't get the praise that they thought it would, because
I feel like I've been seeing all these comments and
stuff on Instagram.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
People hate these people very much. So I mean, I
agree deeply. Do they hate these people? And yeah, there's
nothing redeemable about them. There's certainly nothing likable. They discussed
nothing attractive like that would bring me back, not like
sexually or physically, although that too, Like, there's nothing attractive
that would bring me back to this show. That we're
(03:22):
all despicable, degenerous, and I just like don't want to
watch them. Like I literally had a hard time not
looking away, like keeping my eyes on my television set
because I'd rather look anywhere else than these four fucking slobs.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Listen, after Teya jerked off Sean in the bathroom to
get his sperm sample, I was astro.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I was visiting with Jesus and Buddha just having like
a beautiful time. I am not hanging out on the
earth to watch that crack.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I am not beat. I'm just like, what about your
rules though?
Speaker 1 (03:56):
What about you?
Speaker 2 (03:57):
I just like I.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Can't these people are so gross. Yeah, they're really gross
and it's so strange what people are willing to put
out there for like national consumption. Like I think they
thought they were cooking as the kids said, Oh they
thought they ate with that one.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
They're like, we're just a wholesome family and we're China.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
So great for our tiktokh and for our sponsors, people
are just gonna love it. We're gonna get multiple seasons
and we're gonna get so rich and so famous.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
No, you were probably more popular on TikTok.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
You probably were, but now you have an entire TLC
fan base as well as the Internet mobilized to take
your asses down because there's something very funky and fishy
going on in your Lebanon, Oregon house. Speaking of Oregon, Yeah,
you're dressed like an oregon and.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Tonight I'm channeling my Oregonian roots and I'm.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Not from Oregon. Yeah, I've been there once or twice,
but like you kind of look like you're from Portland
or something.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Yeah, it's almost like I am.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Yeah, looks great on you, but not on these hosts.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
No.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Yeah, so everything is bad about this. I can't image
that they're going to come back for a season two.
I think there were rumblings like back in the spring
what they were planning on a season two, but I
do not think they even finished season one. I think
they just pulled it. Yeah, because honestly, TLC, do you
not have a legal department, Like you're showing children nationally
(05:20):
on television that could potentially allegedly, in my opinion, be
maybe in danger or something. There's like some creepy behavior
and you're showing it and therefore almost platforming and endorsing it.
Like don't you have lawyers that would say pull this
show right now? Maybe they do, and maybe that's why
they did.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Maybe or I mean, I'm just like, if you have
these allegations that are out in the ether and out
in the world, and if they are not true, which
I hope they're not, Like I hope they're truly unfounded.
I hope that Sean actually is not a predator, like
I really have for the safety of the kids. Like,
if that shit is not true, then why don't you
just like come out and say that, Why don't you
(05:59):
just come out and like talk about Sean's past and
talk about like these allegations like that they're completely unfounded,
not true, and he was investigated wrongfully or whatever. But no,
the fact that we're just like not talking about it,
it's completely silent. We're just brushing over it, covers up
his tattoos, and we're just acting like nothing happened. That
(06:22):
makes me think that there's some truth to that.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Maybe maybe they did some digging a little too late
and found out that some of these allegations have some veracity, right,
and so they didn't want to take the risk. But
you know, I just want to make a prediction because
I'm old enough to remember when reality TV first started,
and I'm not talking about like candid camera and talking
about like the Real World. I watched every season of
(06:49):
the Real World, and in the beginning of Reality TV,
it was reality. Yeah, it was people actually fighting and
people actually getting along and people hooking up and there
it was a raw, gritty but most of all it
was truthful, you know. And then we go through a
couple of decades of that, and the pendulum always swings,
(07:13):
and just as society has become or did become a
bit more politically correct, so too did a lot of
our programming in movies follow suit, and that affected Reality TV.
And I think that's why we see tail see like
caping for so many of these absolute villains and abusers
on their platform and pretending that it's not happening because
(07:35):
maybe they want to protect the family, maybe they want
to protect themselves, but also maybe because they don't want
the outrage and the uproar from society if we actually
saw these people's true lives and talked about the real
things that are happening, like what's going on with these allegations?
Sean and I just learned in these last two episodes
that you've been with Taya not six years, but nine years.
And she's twenty nine, So she was twenty That means
(07:56):
you were what thirty eight? How old were you?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Right?
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Like this sounds like grooming me, Like why don't we
have these conversations? So what I'm saying is I think
the pendulum is starting to swing back in the other direction.
I think people are falling off of reality TV because
of the overproduction, because of the manipulated timelines like we
see on Sister Wives and every week when did this happen?
What year did this take? Right? People are getting sick
(08:19):
of it. I think viewership is definitely down, and so
you're going to have to come back to showing real people,
real storylines and giving us what it really is. Otherwise
I'm not interested.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
No, And that's the thing. That's what it feels like
for me. It's like you're trying too hard to produce
drama when there's just like a lot of drama already
behind the scenes, just people like being people like I
don't know, like in my life, there's like drama in
my life sometimes, and it's interesting. There's drama in your life.
There's drama in everyone's life, just platform there. Like, it's
(08:50):
going to be infinitely more interesting when you have people's
genuine reactions to things and them living their genuine life
instead of having them read off a script and have
them portray a particular storyline that the TLC producers deemed
to be dramalish.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Blood type of it all, Oh my god, which we
called out, all of us called out in the first episode,
our second episode as absolutely stupid.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
And now we have it.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah, now we have in the final episode. Oh my bad.
I mean, I guess I should have just scrolled down
one Google entry, yeah, and actually read what it has
to say. But I'm just doing this for a storyline.
Therefore it is fake and nobody is actually interested, which
is why you're not going to get a season two
right now, I'm not advocating for truly debaucherous reality TV
(09:36):
to return. I think that that that polarity of it
is also somewhat problematic somewhere in the middle. Yeah, like
get these producers out of here, man, right, and you
see it on the Valley with Bravo. You've see Sheena
and Laala coming back to the Valley, Like nobody wants
that we're over producing and they're showing up immediately overproducing themselves.
(09:56):
They'refore making it all inorganic and lame. Yeah, how come
we see this, know this and talk about this. But
these producers for TLC, Bravo and all these other networks
can't seem to get it. I don't understand.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I don't get it at all. Well, because people still
watch it, so they're like looking at it just from
a purely statistical standpoint of like, well, but we still
have viewership, we still have fans.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Yeah, but the Valley went down, the ratings were cut,
and Sister Wives the ratings have been going steadily down.
I'm very curious to know what the ratings are for
Polly Family well, I'm not very curious, or else I
would look it up instant. But I'm just like, I
bet it's bad because if the ratings were there, I
think TLC would continue with the full season one yep.
(10:38):
But I think the combination of the ratings not being
there and Sean allegedly being a creepy predator yep is
why we pulled the plug. And I'm glad we did. Honestly,
me too, I don't want to continue to watch this.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Even like Shawn Aside, nobody else on this cast is
even likable. Like I hate Tayum.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
I hate her so much. I every single she's got
the same face. She's like slouching on some couch somewhere,
frowning at somebody with a baby at her breast like
it's giving brain dad, yep, it's giving narcolepsy, it's giving
are you even here right now? Well?
Speaker 2 (11:13):
And like every scene is centered around Taya. It's Taya
goes to the date, Taya gets dealing with postpartum, Taya
jerks off Sewan in the bathroom, Tayo wants to go
on a date with Lex, Taya wants this, Tayo wants that,
And I'm like I don't care about this woman at all.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
There's nothing desirable, wonderful, or lovely about Taya. So I'm
just like wondering what producer walked into Lebanon, Oregon and
into this farm and like, oh my god, you're a star, Taya.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Well it's because of their TikTok, because I think Taya
is the one.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
That's social media.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
I guess yeah, but I just but I'm just like
sometimes thinks she's such a dud well and like sometimes
things on social media, just because they're popular on social
media doesn't mean it's going to translate to everyone else,
because like social media is like a particular audience and
a lot of social media is a bunch of too.
So I'm just like, I'm questioning how popular they even
(12:03):
are on TikTok, and then you have them on this
show and I'm just like, they're the worst. I don't
want to follow them in their life. I don't care
about their life. I'm actually worried about.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Their children, yes legitimately, and I just like I hate them.
I hate them as well. I did see that Teya
dropped like an Instagram post or I don't know where
she posted it, but basically saying that Reality TV is
the most dehumanizing thing she's ever experienced, which I can
see from a meta position. I can see them out
and see how she probably didn't expect this because she's
(12:35):
so popular on TikTok and Instagram or whatever, so she
probably thought that it was going to go well. And no,
you're in a dumpster bit. Yeah, you've got two women
who have eyes and intuition, were fake psychics. We can
see rat through you hood it, and we're not politically correct.
We will tell you what we think about you and
your yoga paths and your humpty dumpty husband predating on
(12:57):
children allegedly in my opinion, I called out. And the
thing is, if you were a decent person, if you
were a nice person, yeah, like, if you were giving
anything whatsoever a value, like I wouldn't be coming for
your neck the entire time. But you are all terrible people,
except for Alicia. We say this every week. I don't
have but truly, these last two episodes, I felt this
(13:19):
woman is being isolated and bullied by the entire group
and neglected, and I don't know what else is happening
behind the scenes, because I feel terrible for her. And
sometimes you know you're in these abusive relationships and you
lose your way so profoundly that you can't see the
forest from the trees. You don't even realize you're in
(13:41):
a toxic situation because you've acclimated, like the frog and
the pot. And that's Alicia. She's acclimated to this terrible,
terrible situation. And I really hope she's on social media.
I really hope she's in Reddit. People are posting directly
to her. Alicia, if you're reading, please read this.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I know well. I saw on their instagram, because the
Polly family, they all have their own like Instagram accounts,
but Taya's the most popular. And she posted a reel
of Alicia and Sean in his Humpty Dumpty ass watching
themselves on TV, and Alicia was like cringing at her behavior,
(14:21):
and it was like Taya filming Alisha cringing at her
own behavior and like hiding behind a blanket because she
doesn't want to see herself cry all the time, and
how she was embarrassed and she's like this is so weird.
I'm like, this is your guys, is like real behavior, though,
like Alicia's genuinely crying in these episodes for multiple reasons,
like it's it's a lot, and you guys are like
(14:44):
filming her reacting to it and then posting it on
Instagram to make her even more uncomfortable, and like all
the comments were like, Alisha, leave blink twice if you
need hell.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Right, it's really distressing. Yeah, And so there's a couple
of comments. The first comment is production sucks. Y'all need
to do better for a variety of different shows. And
the second comment is like, this is a very bad
actual situation in Lebanon, Oregon, and somebody needs to go
and check it out and make sure everybody's okay if
you know what I mean. Yeah, Okay, So that was
(15:16):
our preliminary commentary. Before we get into I want to say,
can we just like just breath it's the main points.
We do not need to recap scene to Sina Adie, No,
if the main points recapp ANDed, wind this down.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
I mean, I just like the theme for me for
these last two episodes is I feel bad for Alicia
because like we have this like date that she goes
on with Sean. So like Teya got an overnight date
at the coast and she got edible body pain, and
Alicia gets some stupid booty ass painting date with Sean
(15:49):
where they drink terrible IPA beers and talk about their
lack of a sex life, and Sean makes mean comments
to her about how she's vanilla and how they don't
have sex a lot because she's vanilla.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
And like, why do you need to have boundaries? Like
why are you so upset because everybody talks about all
the sex they're having, just not with you, Like why
just start? He gets off. He does on offending her,
making her feel bad.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
And he likes to talk about sex because he's.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
A perv allegedly allegedly.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
But like he likes to talk about it and likes
to make Alicia uncomfortable. And he's also like in this
dynamic where he's apparently getting fucked a lot by Teya,
and he just wants everybody to know that that even
though he's a.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Disgusting small penist allegedly round a human, big back, big
booty pack's.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Still getting it. He's still getting.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
It, okay, And I just don't I don't want.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
To think about it. I don't want to think about
these people having sex.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
But they want they want us to think about them
having sex. That's like their main king. That is the
main it's not even being polyamorous. Is not a king,
can clarify that, but I mean, it's not even about
the polyamory. It's about like the sex talk, the sex stuff,
wanting to eat another box. It's like in the Pursuit
of Sex twenty four to seven.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
All the time. And then you have all of that
juxtaposed with this scene where Alicia and Tyler go to
this carousel in Albany, Oregon, and they talk about Alicia's mom,
who died of cancer when she was eighteen, which is
absolutely fucking tragic, and they're gonna dedicate like a carousel
(17:34):
animal to her mom. And then Alicia starts crying about
the fact that she doesn't have a relationship with her
only living parent, her dad, because he doesn't accept her
dedient lifestyle with these deviant people, and it doesn't accept
these other kids as his grandchildren. And then we go
right back to like talking about sex, right and talking
(17:55):
about Sean going to test his sperm sample because you
got a physectomy, and how he needs to jack off
into a cup and he needs Taya's help to jack
him off into the cup.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Yeah, but like he was supposed to wait three days
before he jacked up, but he just couldn't do it
because he's having so much sex. Didn't you know that?
But like back to Alicia and the issue that she's
having because she misses her family. Yeah, because again I
assert she's being isolated from her family, and the entire
quad is telling her that her dad is a bad person,
and we're being led to believe it's because he's bigoted
(18:26):
against polyamory, whereas I would like just to offer the
counterpoint is that maybe he's heard what we've heard though. Yeah,
maybe just like the rest of the polyamorous community in
Portland allegedly, as per Reddit, like everybody heard about this
creepo Sean, and so maybe Alicia's father heard that too.
Maybe that's why he's like, yeah, I love my biological kids,
(18:47):
I love you, Maybe I love Tyler. I don't know
why he would have any respect for Tyler real, but like,
I'm not going to support this relationship, Like there's something
very wrong here. Maybe that's what's actually happening Alicia.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
Maybe, But the way that they describe it is like
Taya recounts birthday cards like she talks about Alicia's dad,
signing like love Papa to Alisha and Tyler's eldest kids,
but then to the younger two year olds who can't
read love his name and like doesn't say like he's
(19:21):
their grandpa or something, and that sends Taya and Sean
over the edge, and they make Alisha give her dad
an ultimatum that if you don't accept me and my
gross husband as part of this polycule, then we're gonna
be no contact. And it's like, does Alicia want that?
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Though, no, she doesn't want that, and she's trying to
sit them down and have the conversation with them, but
there is no grace. No, there's absolutely no empathy. Taya's
just sitting there, you know, brist treating her baby and
just mean mugging and cannot relate because of course, she's
got her entire family around her in Portland, work, seeing
(20:00):
her mother and her other family members, so she has
all the support that she needs, and so as long
as that's the case, then who gives a fuck about
what Alicia might need? Yeah, And it's really sad, and
Alicia's sitting there crying like her heart out, and then
there's Tyler, and I'm just like looking at Tyler, you
simpering mess of a man.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Such a weasel.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Yeah, you can't even speak with your full chest and
tell them to back off or get your lady out
of there and have a conversation. Now, he tries to
have a bit of a conversation when they're at the carousel,
but even that is just a doddering. He's just ineffectual. No,
he's he's a milk toast. There's nothing potent about him.
And I know he wants to work out and he's
got his Instagram where he's lifting weights. But you're like,
(20:41):
not even a man. No, but you allow these two
predators allegedly, yeah, to treat your wife like this, and
you're helping them to alienate her from the rest of
her support system, a support system that she could have.
But nope, no, we've got these abusers allegedly in the house.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
He's like total shadow pisces, where like he doesn't care
about any emotion at all, Like he's literally he only
cares about fucking taya.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
He only cares.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
About the edible body pay and like having this cool
arrangement and getting kinky and stuff like at the carousel,
he's like, he says something like I don't even know
how to be comforting to Alicia, and I don't know
how to deal with her emotions. So he just sits
there and like awkwardly smiles while she's like literally sobbing
about the loss of her mom and like dealing with
navigating her relationship with her father and like trying to
(21:25):
confront him about accepting her their horseship and their bullshit,
like and I just it's just so weird. And that
was like what made me really start hating this and
start zoning out, because I'm just like, man, you guys
don't care about Alicia's feelings in any way.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
You guys actually don't care about each other. You just
only care about banging each other.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
Like there's no actual, real love relationship between the four
of you. It's just an opportunistic parasite relationship. And then
there's Alicia who's thinking that this is all organic and
true and and she's actually trying to accomplish something in
this polyculee. And I'm like, Alicia, I need you, I
need you to wake up, go to therapy and leave
(22:08):
them and then super custody and get your kids out
of there because I just it's a terrible situation.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
It's absolutely awful. I just like don't see like what
Taya and Sean even bring to the table that's like positive. Besides,
I guess childcare, and if that's the case, like and
Shawn's actually a predator allegedly, then like that's not good.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
No, it's not good at all. Well, maybe they bring
from TikTok money. Maybe they helped to pay for that farm.
I was looking around the farms kids beautiful. Yeah, but
maybe maybe they're bringing financial support. I don't maybe, I
don't know. I hate. Yeah, it's terrible.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
And then, like the last episode, we get into the
blood type conversation, like right off the bat with Taya
going to lunch with her mom at McDonald's or something,
and her mom's like, oh, I'm a nurse, let me
google it. Oh maybe a B person and an O
person can make oh negative baby, Oh my god, Like look,
Sean was wrong. And so then Teya has to go
and confront Sean and she tells him at the ice
(23:04):
cream parlor.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
So nobody like heard about it when it was first
brought up by Sean and decided to do their own
google research. Like, what about you, Tyler, You're the one
who's getting lambasted by Sean for sending this text to
the group chat or whatever which with a blood type
like you didn't think maybe let me just check Google
though and verify this information for yeah on, But of
course not, because it's just a storyline. This was not
(23:26):
real totally.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
TLC producers being like, this would be so great for
drama because you guys are arguing about the paternity when probably,
like in real life, they probably know who the fathers
are of all the kids, like they probably don't care,
just like how in real life they're probably not a
closed squad. They probably have other people coming in from
time to time, and it's like not that big of
(23:48):
a deal, Like it's just all lies.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
It's bad, it's so bad.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
And then we meet another poly couple at the very
end of this weird season, lex and Chris.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
And so to read everybody, Teya, who this whole show
is about, apparently has been talking to Lexi, who lives
to twelve hours away and she really likes Lexi. And
you know, Taya has been feeling in her band sexual self,
like she really needs a box to et and so
Lexi's got a box and they've been talking, and so
she would like for Lexi to come on over to
(24:21):
Oregon or pass on through Libanon or whatever, and so
maybe they could all just get together and spend some
time together and she could get.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
The box because she needs that need to be fulfilled.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Oh my god. When we get to the part where
she's asking if they can open it and she is
so offended that Tyler wants to open it to then
I'm like, what is going on right now?
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Oh my god? That was actually absolutely wild.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Well let's talk about Lexi first, and then let's get
to that. Because we meet Lexi and her husband and
they seem like perfectly nice people, except there's got to
be a screw loose if you want to hang out
with these people, Like how do you not walk into
the room, sniff the energy, see Humpty Dumpty sitting there
with the children and be like, oh, I'm pacing the
f out. How does that happen? For real?
Speaker 2 (25:06):
I don't get it. I really don't get it. And
like they we talk about them briefly about how they
were like involved in some triad or something or tripod
and like, I don't know what it means, because there's
so many terms in the polyamory community, so like, don't
come at me if I'm getting it wrong. Like I
guess Lexi didn't like that dynamic because they were only
favoring her husband. Wonder why because you don't look like
(25:28):
a price.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Oh my god, judge you sorry. I hate these people. Okay,
Oh well go ahead, no go ahead, no, no go ahead.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
I wasn't gonna say anything.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Well, I'm just gonna say. The rumor is that Teya
and Lexi had actually been dating for quite some time
by the time they actually feel this but film this,
but that the reason that Lexi and her husband Chris
broke up with this degenerate polycule is because they found
out about Sean's allegations. Allegedly, that is why. And so
(25:58):
once they heard about it, because they have kids, and
they brought the kids to the Lebanon farm and so
they learn about their background and they're like, we can't
hang out with you. This can't be a thing. And
so that is why Lexi dumped Taya and back to Instagram.
I believe Taeya made a post fairly recently here saying
like I just am not ready to talk about Lexie.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
I'm unhealed.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
I'm unhealed where it concerns Lexi, I'm like, Okay, she
dumped you because you're married to an alleged PDF file.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
Yeah, well, and that's like the thing that's so fucking stupid.
It's like so online you're you're saying it out loud
that you guys have been dating, but like in this
episode on this show, it's all about, well, we have
a connection and like we're really like into each other,
but like we can't date because I'm a closed quad
and like so we haven't done anything yet, but like
(26:49):
we talk every day, so we're pretending right, like you
guys haven't been in a full fledged relationship this entire time,
and acting like, yeah, you want to establish this connection.
And then we have the discussion where you're talking to
the rest of the quad about how you want to
open it up.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
But before we get there, can we just talk about
if this was really happening in real life and your
friend Alexi took you out for coffee so she could
tell you that she's crushing so hard on you because
you're so hot day up, and you haven't discussed this
yet with your polycule and you're entertaining a conversation where
and you're like, I feel really validated because I'm feeling
(27:26):
the same thing for you, Like, aren't you already betraying
your polychey. Yes, that's like if your friend sat you
down and said Beatrice just so hot and crushing in
you hard, and you're like, oh my god, thank you.
I'm feeling the same way. But let me talk to
my wife, right, there's something inherently wrong with that, there's
but they're immoral anyway, so I guess they wouldn't notice.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Yeah, it doesn't make any sense because again, like these
fake rules that they have are just for the show,
because like in real life, they probably all have their
own extra people. Maybe I don't know.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
Alicia seems pretty probably not upset, And let me just
say me back track a second. I don't think they're
immoral because they're polyamorous, not at all, and fully, and
I've said it throughout the entire podcast, I'm fully in
supportive alternative lifestyles, you know, like, do you I don't
care there are moral because of the allegations and what
they're allowing to happen around the kids that we can
(28:16):
see in this show. Allegedly in my opinion, just to clarify.
So back to Teya sitting down the rest of the
polycule to let them know that she's crushing hard on
Lexi and she was really thinking about eating the box
so bad, and she wants to open up the polycule,
but just for herself. And she feels like it should
be just for herself because she's pan sexual, which is
(28:38):
absolutely and because she's pan sexual and has a different designation,
I guess for her sexuality, she should be entitled to
do whatever the fuck she wants in her hedonistic lifestyle,
but everybody else has to stay in the closed polycule.
So crazy and so selfish, like inherently selfish.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
So I mean, this whole season has been about a
Taya and like what she gets and what her needs are,
like it all revolves around her for some reason because
of her magical punani. I don't get it, and I think,
like Sean defends it and is like, yo, well yeah,
because she can't get her need elsewhere because Alicia is
straight and won't let Teya violate her box, and so
(29:19):
Taya needs to have that need met. And it's Tyler
who's arguing about it, and saying that he has a
moral issue, an ethical issue with not being able to
explore that himself or have Alisha or Sean or whatever.
They should open up the entire quad and Taya gets
big mad about it.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Yeah, very very very much. So she's sitting there just
frowning in her recliner with her yoga pants. I'm gonna
leave it right there. And I was like team Tyler
in so far as I have to enter the ring
with you degenerates and argue from the place of your weird,
weird sty lifestyle. Yeah, but based on your weird life
(30:00):
lifestyle and the rules that you guys have stepped forth, well,
then Tyler should feel completely empowered, Yeah, to also step
out of the polycule and go pursue any box he
wants to et. That seems fine, but not to Taya
and not to Alicia. Yeah, because Alicia is already struggling
with the fact that Tyler is banging Taya and seems
to prefer Taya and it might be deeply in love
(30:20):
with Taya, whereas she's not getting any sex from Sean
and it sounds like maybe not Tyler either, who's not
actual lygal husbands. So now she's going to have to
compete with another woman, not just Taya's woman, but Tyler
wants to bring in a woman, and she's already having
to deal with her jealousy and constantly sacrifice because nobody
(30:41):
respects their agreement to not talk about their personal sex
lives around her. They're constantly doing it all the time.
They're constantly doing it, and then they're like, why is
she so mad? Yeah, Sean is like, well, why are
you so mad that I mentioned that we had sex
before I left the bed or whatever? Why are you
so mad? And I'm sorry, I didn't mean to And
I'm thinking to myself, Sean, so you can say I'm sorry,
(31:04):
I didn't mean to say it, but Tyler couldn't say, well,
I'm sorry I didn't mean to send the text to
the right chat with the blood type double stain. You
get to spend three episodes crying like a big back
to baby back rolls, and Alicia can't be upset because
for the umpteenth time, you guys are stomping all over
her boundaries.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Well and like, you know, to Sean's disgusting credit, like, yeah,
I mean, Alicia, why are you getting upset about knowing
about other people's sex lives when you're in this arrangement
knowing that your husband is beany and tea literally every
single other night. Like at the same time, like I
get Alicia being upset about and just being like, can
you just like please just not talk about it when
(31:44):
I'm around the room? Can you just like wait until
I get the grocery store and then you can talk
about it wherever you want. Like I get that, but
like these people obviously don't respect her. They don't give
a shit about her. They don't care that she's no
contact with her only living parent that she just desperately
wants to have a relationship with. They absolutely love it.
And that's what's so fucked up is that they are
(32:06):
making it so that Tyler and Alicia's kids don't get
to have a relationship with their grandfather either because their grandfather,
who's probably old as fuck and totally set in his ways,
doesn't accept their alternative lifestyle.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
I mean, or the fact that Sean is hanging around
his grandkids. Yeah, that's what I think it probably is.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
They want us to believe.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
That it's all about their lifestyle, and it's so miserable
to see Alicia continuing to approach these people, and Sean
in particular, asking almost for his permission to have a
relationship with her father, as if he has control over
what she, well, he does, he does have control over
what she ultimately does. And it's really sad. And in
(32:50):
this kind of final scene where they're all sitting there
with Taya, she still has no control. She doesn't have
any control over Taya and her decision to blow up
the polycule, control over her legal husband, Tyler, who is
now out of spite, which is what Taya says, now
out of spite gonna go seek out another relationship that
Alisha is going to have to contend with. And then
(33:10):
you have Sean who doesn't give a fuck, and any
opportunity he can take to make Alicia feel even less
than he's gonna take. It's disgusting, it's really sad, And
that's why this whole quad is so gross, Like it's
all of it combined. It's all the allegations against Sean,
It's the mistreatment and bullying of Alicia and the isolation
of her. It's like all of this and all of
(33:31):
the sex talk, Like I want to even think about
y'all bumping ugly.
Speaker 2 (33:34):
I don't want to hear about it.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
I don't want to think about it.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
I couldn't even believe that we had a scene of
Taya just going to jerk off Sean in the bathroom.
I'm just like, this is tlc mm hmm, this is
the Larning channel, this is a family channel. There's kids
on this show, and we have.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
This scene in there.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
I'm just like, I can't, and then the fuck an
edible bodybeait, Yeah, I can't. This whole show was crazy. Yes,
we saw it through though we wanted to give up.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
I did.
Speaker 2 (34:00):
I brot.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
We wanted to give us Beatrice one or two weeks
ago or both of those weeks. And I'm like, do
we really would anybody notice if they didn't see this through?
And You're like, I think we've like quit on a
couple of shows, and people really don't like it. One
we quit, so we have to see it through. And
I'm like, all right, but we did. We did. We
saw it through, and we thank god See had the
foresight to pull the damn plug.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Honestly, I'm so these people because I don't think I
could have watched another episode, even like watching these two
episodes I'm like, this is taking forever.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
Yeah, it's sucking my life in the Princess Brian incremental time.
I could be doing anything else. I want to be
doing anything, anything else else. Good Lord, but it's over now,
it's over.
Speaker 2 (34:42):
What are we going to cover next? Are we gonna
cover anything? Do you guys want us to cover anything?
Speaker 1 (34:47):
What do you guys want us to cover?
Speaker 2 (34:48):
Yeah? Because like Sister Wives is almost gonna be done,
and like do we want to go back to Rewind's
Do you want us to do something else? Yeah?
Speaker 1 (34:56):
I would love some feedback on this. I know that
Polly Family is being replaced by one thousand pound roommates,
which a couple of girls who are going to get
some of that bariatric third.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
I really like pounds.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
We do like a thousand pound context. I love that
very much. But again, I haven't heard anything about Plaidsville
coming back. I would love seeking Sister Wives to come back.
The Merryfields get it.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
Oh, talk about it.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
Right, But I'm not hearing anything about that neither, So
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
Yeah, we're seeking brother Husband. Did they like cancel it?
Speaker 1 (35:32):
I think they canceled that and you me and my
ex that was pretty fun. That was lit.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
I want that to come back.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
That was great, great. Actually, yeah, we could go back
to ninety day Fiance. There's always a franchise launching.
Speaker 2 (35:44):
There's there's so much ninety.
Speaker 1 (35:47):
I know, let us know what y'all think, because otherwise
we can do rewind until something hits and inspires us.
Yeah that's cool.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
Gets us excited or whatever. But we would love your feedback.
We asked for it. Sometimes we don't get it.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
Yeah, it's kind of rude.
Speaker 2 (36:02):
Just like, leave us a comment or something. Are you
even listening?
Speaker 1 (36:05):
Or go to Instagram first of all, follow us, and
then you can send a DM to Beatrice and let
her know what your thoughts are. Maybe you could run
some polls and ask the folks if you can be arsed,
can you be urted?
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Well?
Speaker 1 (36:21):
I was actually looking up some subreddits that kind of
are popping off with reality TV and some TLC stuff,
and there's My Big, fat, Fabulous Life with Whitney thor
Or whenever she is. So I think I watched the
first five seasons and I just couldn't don't even know,
(36:41):
but that show is still on. It is still and
then it's like this seven little Johnston's, which I am
quite patting. I'm interested in. I don't know if they
have a current season, if they're going to have another
one coming up, but we could maybe do the last
season of doing that. I am interested. So let us
know what y'all are thinking. Is there anything else that
(37:02):
we need to do before we get up on out
of here and the thunder is coming? I interested thunderstorm

(01:57):
everything you do truly helps. Thank you. Inving news. So
they pulled the plug, honestly, I'm glad, and they did
it in such a strange way, very weird. They aired
two episodes on the same night, which was last Tuesday,
(02:19):
and they kind of left us with other storylines somewhat hanging. Yeah,
this Alexi girl, we'll get there, and the vasectomy stuff
and Alicia clearly being bullied in abusey. Yeah, there's a
lot going on. Like it's just done, done, it's over.
Speaker 2 (02:39):
Honestly good.
Speaker 1 (02:40):
Why do you think they did that?
Speaker 2 (02:42):
Because they're terrible because of all the allegations that came
out of Sean, because he's allegedly a predator in our
pinesting degenerate in our opinion, and like maybe because it
didn't get the praise that they thought it would, because
I feel like I've been seeing all these comments and
stuff on Instagram.
Speaker 1 (03:00):
People hate these people very much. So I mean, I
agree deeply. Do they hate these people? And yeah, there's
nothing redeemable about them. There's certainly nothing likable. They discussed
nothing attractive like that would bring me back, not like
sexually or physically, although that too, Like, there's nothing attractive
that would bring me back to this show. That we're
(03:22):
all despicable, degenerous, and I just like don't want to
watch them. Like I literally had a hard time not
looking away, like keeping my eyes on my television set
because I'd rather look anywhere else than these four fucking slobs.
Speaker 2 (03:38):
Listen, after Teya jerked off Sean in the bathroom to
get his sperm sample, I was astro.
Speaker 1 (03:45):
I was visiting with Jesus and Buddha just having like
a beautiful time. I am not hanging out on the
earth to watch that crack.
Speaker 2 (03:53):
I am not beat. I'm just like, what about your
rules though?
Speaker 1 (03:56):
What about you?
Speaker 2 (03:57):
I just like I.
Speaker 1 (03:58):
Can't these people are so gross. Yeah, they're really gross
and it's so strange what people are willing to put
out there for like national consumption. Like I think they
thought they were cooking as the kids said, Oh they
thought they ate with that one.
Speaker 2 (04:14):
They're like, we're just a wholesome family and we're China.
Speaker 1 (04:16):
So great for our tiktokh and for our sponsors, people
are just gonna love it. We're gonna get multiple seasons
and we're gonna get so rich and so famous.
Speaker 2 (04:24):
No, you were probably more popular on TikTok.
Speaker 1 (04:27):
You probably were, but now you have an entire TLC
fan base as well as the Internet mobilized to take
your asses down because there's something very funky and fishy
going on in your Lebanon, Oregon house. Speaking of Oregon, Yeah,
you're dressed like an oregon and.
Speaker 2 (04:42):
Tonight I'm channeling my Oregonian roots and I'm.
Speaker 1 (04:45):
Not from Oregon. Yeah, I've been there once or twice,
but like you kind of look like you're from Portland
or something.
Speaker 2 (04:51):
Yeah, it's almost like I am.
Speaker 1 (04:52):
Yeah, looks great on you, but not on these hosts.
Speaker 2 (04:55):
No.
Speaker 1 (04:55):
Yeah, so everything is bad about this. I can't image
that they're going to come back for a season two.
I think there were rumblings like back in the spring
what they were planning on a season two, but I
do not think they even finished season one. I think
they just pulled it. Yeah, because honestly, TLC, do you
not have a legal department, Like you're showing children nationally
(05:20):
on television that could potentially allegedly, in my opinion, be
maybe in danger or something. There's like some creepy behavior
and you're showing it and therefore almost platforming and endorsing it.
Like don't you have lawyers that would say pull this
show right now? Maybe they do, and maybe that's why
they did.
Speaker 2 (05:39):
Maybe or I mean, I'm just like, if you have
these allegations that are out in the ether and out
in the world, and if they are not true, which
I hope they're not, Like I hope they're truly unfounded.
I hope that Sean actually is not a predator, like
I really have for the safety of the kids. Like,
if that shit is not true, then why don't you
just like come out and say that, Why don't you
(05:59):
just come out and like talk about Sean's past and
talk about like these allegations like that they're completely unfounded,
not true, and he was investigated wrongfully or whatever. But no,
the fact that we're just like not talking about it,
it's completely silent. We're just brushing over it, covers up
his tattoos, and we're just acting like nothing happened. That
(06:22):
makes me think that there's some truth to that.
Speaker 1 (06:26):
Maybe maybe they did some digging a little too late
and found out that some of these allegations have some veracity, right,
and so they didn't want to take the risk. But
you know, I just want to make a prediction because
I'm old enough to remember when reality TV first started,
and I'm not talking about like candid camera and talking
about like the Real World. I watched every season of
(06:49):
the Real World, and in the beginning of Reality TV,
it was reality. Yeah, it was people actually fighting and
people actually getting along and people hooking up and there
it was a raw, gritty but most of all it
was truthful, you know. And then we go through a
couple of decades of that, and the pendulum always swings,
(07:13):
and just as society has become or did become a
bit more politically correct, so too did a lot of
our programming in movies follow suit, and that affected Reality TV.
And I think that's why we see tail see like
caping for so many of these absolute villains and abusers
on their platform and pretending that it's not happening because
(07:35):
maybe they want to protect the family, maybe they want
to protect themselves, but also maybe because they don't want
the outrage and the uproar from society if we actually
saw these people's true lives and talked about the real
things that are happening, like what's going on with these allegations?
Sean and I just learned in these last two episodes
that you've been with Taya not six years, but nine years.
And she's twenty nine, So she was twenty That means
(07:56):
you were what thirty eight? How old were you?
Speaker 2 (07:58):
Right?
Speaker 1 (07:58):
Like this sounds like grooming me, Like why don't we
have these conversations? So what I'm saying is I think
the pendulum is starting to swing back in the other direction.
I think people are falling off of reality TV because
of the overproduction, because of the manipulated timelines like we
see on Sister Wives and every week when did this happen?
What year did this take? Right? People are getting sick
(08:19):
of it. I think viewership is definitely down, and so
you're going to have to come back to showing real people,
real storylines and giving us what it really is. Otherwise
I'm not interested.
Speaker 2 (08:30):
No, And that's the thing. That's what it feels like
for me. It's like you're trying too hard to produce
drama when there's just like a lot of drama already
behind the scenes, just people like being people like I
don't know, like in my life, there's like drama in
my life sometimes, and it's interesting. There's drama in your life.
There's drama in everyone's life, just platform there. Like, it's
(08:50):
going to be infinitely more interesting when you have people's
genuine reactions to things and them living their genuine life
instead of having them read off a script and have
them portray a particular storyline that the TLC producers deemed
to be dramalish.
Speaker 1 (09:05):
Blood type of it all, Oh my god, which we
called out, all of us called out in the first episode,
our second episode as absolutely stupid.
Speaker 2 (09:13):
And now we have it.
Speaker 1 (09:14):
Yeah, now we have in the final episode. Oh my bad.
I mean, I guess I should have just scrolled down
one Google entry, yeah, and actually read what it has
to say. But I'm just doing this for a storyline.
Therefore it is fake and nobody is actually interested, which
is why you're not going to get a season two
right now, I'm not advocating for truly debaucherous reality TV
(09:36):
to return. I think that that that polarity of it
is also somewhat problematic somewhere in the middle. Yeah, like
get these producers out of here, man, right, and you
see it on the Valley with Bravo. You've see Sheena
and Laala coming back to the Valley, Like nobody wants
that we're over producing and they're showing up immediately overproducing themselves.
(09:56):
They'refore making it all inorganic and lame. Yeah, how come
we see this, know this and talk about this. But
these producers for TLC, Bravo and all these other networks
can't seem to get it. I don't understand.
Speaker 2 (10:08):
I don't get it at all. Well, because people still
watch it, so they're like looking at it just from
a purely statistical standpoint of like, well, but we still
have viewership, we still have fans.
Speaker 1 (10:18):
Yeah, but the Valley went down, the ratings were cut,
and Sister Wives the ratings have been going steadily down.
I'm very curious to know what the ratings are for
Polly Family well, I'm not very curious, or else I
would look it up instant. But I'm just like, I
bet it's bad because if the ratings were there, I
think TLC would continue with the full season one yep.
(10:38):
But I think the combination of the ratings not being
there and Sean allegedly being a creepy predator yep is
why we pulled the plug. And I'm glad we did. Honestly,
me too, I don't want to continue to watch this.
Speaker 2 (10:52):
Even like Shawn Aside, nobody else on this cast is
even likable. Like I hate Tayum.
Speaker 1 (10:57):
I hate her so much. I every single she's got
the same face. She's like slouching on some couch somewhere,
frowning at somebody with a baby at her breast like
it's giving brain dad, yep, it's giving narcolepsy, it's giving
are you even here right now? Well?
Speaker 2 (11:13):
And like every scene is centered around Taya. It's Taya
goes to the date, Taya gets dealing with postpartum, Taya
jerks off Sewan in the bathroom, Tayo wants to go
on a date with Lex, Taya wants this, Tayo wants that,
And I'm like I don't care about this woman at all.
Speaker 1 (11:29):
There's nothing desirable, wonderful, or lovely about Taya. So I'm
just like wondering what producer walked into Lebanon, Oregon and
into this farm and like, oh my god, you're a star, Taya.
Speaker 2 (11:39):
Well it's because of their TikTok, because I think Taya
is the one.
Speaker 1 (11:41):
That's social media.
Speaker 2 (11:43):
I guess yeah, but I just but I'm just like
sometimes thinks she's such a dud well and like sometimes
things on social media, just because they're popular on social
media doesn't mean it's going to translate to everyone else,
because like social media is like a particular audience and
a lot of social media is a bunch of too.
So I'm just like, I'm questioning how popular they even
(12:03):
are on TikTok, and then you have them on this
show and I'm just like, they're the worst. I don't
want to follow them in their life. I don't care
about their life. I'm actually worried about.
Speaker 1 (12:12):
Their children, yes legitimately, and I just like I hate them.
I hate them as well. I did see that Teya
dropped like an Instagram post or I don't know where
she posted it, but basically saying that Reality TV is
the most dehumanizing thing she's ever experienced, which I can
see from a meta position. I can see them out
and see how she probably didn't expect this because she's
(12:35):
so popular on TikTok and Instagram or whatever, so she
probably thought that it was going to go well. And no,
you're in a dumpster bit. Yeah, you've got two women
who have eyes and intuition, were fake psychics. We can
see rat through you hood it, and we're not politically correct.
We will tell you what we think about you and
your yoga paths and your humpty dumpty husband predating on
(12:57):
children allegedly in my opinion, I called out. And the
thing is, if you were a decent person, if you
were a nice person, yeah, like, if you were giving
anything whatsoever a value, like I wouldn't be coming for
your neck the entire time. But you are all terrible people,
except for Alicia. We say this every week. I don't
have but truly, these last two episodes, I felt this
(13:19):
woman is being isolated and bullied by the entire group
and neglected, and I don't know what else is happening
behind the scenes, because I feel terrible for her. And
sometimes you know you're in these abusive relationships and you
lose your way so profoundly that you can't see the
forest from the trees. You don't even realize you're in
(13:41):
a toxic situation because you've acclimated, like the frog and
the pot. And that's Alicia. She's acclimated to this terrible,
terrible situation. And I really hope she's on social media.
I really hope she's in Reddit. People are posting directly
to her. Alicia, if you're reading, please read this.
Speaker 2 (14:00):
I know well. I saw on their instagram, because the
Polly family, they all have their own like Instagram accounts,
but Taya's the most popular. And she posted a reel
of Alicia and Sean in his Humpty Dumpty ass watching
themselves on TV, and Alicia was like cringing at her behavior,
(14:21):
and it was like Taya filming Alisha cringing at her
own behavior and like hiding behind a blanket because she
doesn't want to see herself cry all the time, and
how she was embarrassed and she's like this is so weird.
I'm like, this is your guys, is like real behavior, though,
like Alicia's genuinely crying in these episodes for multiple reasons,
like it's it's a lot, and you guys are like
(14:44):
filming her reacting to it and then posting it on
Instagram to make her even more uncomfortable, and like all
the comments were like, Alisha, leave blink twice if you
need hell.
Speaker 1 (14:55):
Right, it's really distressing. Yeah, And so there's a couple
of comments. The first comment is production sucks. Y'all need
to do better for a variety of different shows. And
the second comment is like, this is a very bad
actual situation in Lebanon, Oregon, and somebody needs to go
and check it out and make sure everybody's okay if
you know what I mean. Yeah, Okay, So that was
(15:16):
our preliminary commentary. Before we get into I want to say,
can we just like just breath it's the main points.
We do not need to recap scene to Sina Adie, No,
if the main points recapp ANDed, wind this down.
Speaker 2 (15:29):
I mean, I just like the theme for me for
these last two episodes is I feel bad for Alicia
because like we have this like date that she goes
on with Sean. So like Teya got an overnight date
at the coast and she got edible body pain, and
Alicia gets some stupid booty ass painting date with Sean
(15:49):
where they drink terrible IPA beers and talk about their
lack of a sex life, and Sean makes mean comments
to her about how she's vanilla and how they don't
have sex a lot because she's vanilla.
Speaker 1 (16:03):
And like, why do you need to have boundaries? Like
why are you so upset because everybody talks about all
the sex they're having, just not with you, Like why
just start? He gets off. He does on offending her,
making her feel bad.
Speaker 2 (16:15):
And he likes to talk about sex because he's.
Speaker 1 (16:18):
A perv allegedly allegedly.
Speaker 2 (16:20):
But like he likes to talk about it and likes
to make Alicia uncomfortable. And he's also like in this
dynamic where he's apparently getting fucked a lot by Teya,
and he just wants everybody to know that that even
though he's a.
Speaker 1 (16:34):
Disgusting small penist allegedly round a human, big back, big
booty pack's.
Speaker 2 (16:44):
Still getting it. He's still getting.
Speaker 1 (16:46):
It, okay, And I just don't I don't want.
Speaker 2 (16:50):
To think about it. I don't want to think about
these people having sex.
Speaker 1 (16:53):
But they want they want us to think about them
having sex. That's like their main king. That is the
main it's not even being polyamorous. Is not a king,
can clarify that, but I mean, it's not even about
the polyamory. It's about like the sex talk, the sex stuff,
wanting to eat another box. It's like in the Pursuit
of Sex twenty four to seven.
Speaker 2 (17:12):
All the time. And then you have all of that
juxtaposed with this scene where Alicia and Tyler go to
this carousel in Albany, Oregon, and they talk about Alicia's mom,
who died of cancer when she was eighteen, which is
absolutely fucking tragic, and they're gonna dedicate like a carousel
(17:34):
animal to her mom. And then Alicia starts crying about
the fact that she doesn't have a relationship with her
only living parent, her dad, because he doesn't accept her
dedient lifestyle with these deviant people, and it doesn't accept
these other kids as his grandchildren. And then we go
right back to like talking about sex, right and talking
(17:55):
about Sean going to test his sperm sample because you
got a physectomy, and how he needs to jack off
into a cup and he needs Taya's help to jack
him off into the cup.
Speaker 1 (18:04):
Yeah, but like he was supposed to wait three days
before he jacked up, but he just couldn't do it
because he's having so much sex. Didn't you know that?
But like back to Alicia and the issue that she's
having because she misses her family. Yeah, because again I
assert she's being isolated from her family, and the entire
quad is telling her that her dad is a bad person,
and we're being led to believe it's because he's bigoted
(18:26):
against polyamory, whereas I would like just to offer the
counterpoint is that maybe he's heard what we've heard though. Yeah,
maybe just like the rest of the polyamorous community in
Portland allegedly, as per Reddit, like everybody heard about this
creepo Sean, and so maybe Alicia's father heard that too.
Maybe that's why he's like, yeah, I love my biological kids,
(18:47):
I love you, Maybe I love Tyler. I don't know
why he would have any respect for Tyler real, but like,
I'm not going to support this relationship, Like there's something
very wrong here. Maybe that's what's actually happening Alicia.
Speaker 2 (18:58):
Maybe, But the way that they describe it is like
Taya recounts birthday cards like she talks about Alicia's dad,
signing like love Papa to Alisha and Tyler's eldest kids,
but then to the younger two year olds who can't
read love his name and like doesn't say like he's
(19:21):
their grandpa or something, and that sends Taya and Sean
over the edge, and they make Alisha give her dad
an ultimatum that if you don't accept me and my
gross husband as part of this polycule, then we're gonna
be no contact. And it's like, does Alicia want that?
Speaker 1 (19:40):
Though, no, she doesn't want that, and she's trying to
sit them down and have the conversation with them, but
there is no grace. No, there's absolutely no empathy. Taya's
just sitting there, you know, brist treating her baby and
just mean mugging and cannot relate because of course, she's
got her entire family around her in Portland, work, seeing
(20:00):
her mother and her other family members, so she has
all the support that she needs, and so as long
as that's the case, then who gives a fuck about
what Alicia might need? Yeah, And it's really sad, and
Alicia's sitting there crying like her heart out, and then
there's Tyler, and I'm just like looking at Tyler, you
simpering mess of a man.
Speaker 2 (20:18):
Such a weasel.
Speaker 1 (20:19):
Yeah, you can't even speak with your full chest and
tell them to back off or get your lady out
of there and have a conversation. Now, he tries to
have a bit of a conversation when they're at the carousel,
but even that is just a doddering. He's just ineffectual. No,
he's he's a milk toast. There's nothing potent about him.
And I know he wants to work out and he's
got his Instagram where he's lifting weights. But you're like,
(20:41):
not even a man. No, but you allow these two
predators allegedly, yeah, to treat your wife like this, and
you're helping them to alienate her from the rest of
her support system, a support system that she could have.
But nope, no, we've got these abusers allegedly in the house.
Speaker 2 (20:56):
He's like total shadow pisces, where like he doesn't care
about any emotion at all, Like he's literally he only
cares about fucking taya.
Speaker 1 (21:03):
He only cares.
Speaker 2 (21:03):
About the edible body pay and like having this cool
arrangement and getting kinky and stuff like at the carousel,
he's like, he says something like I don't even know
how to be comforting to Alicia, and I don't know
how to deal with her emotions. So he just sits
there and like awkwardly smiles while she's like literally sobbing
about the loss of her mom and like dealing with
navigating her relationship with her father and like trying to
(21:25):
confront him about accepting her their horseship and their bullshit,
like and I just it's just so weird. And that
was like what made me really start hating this and
start zoning out, because I'm just like, man, you guys
don't care about Alicia's feelings in any way.
Speaker 1 (21:42):
You guys actually don't care about each other. You just
only care about banging each other.
Speaker 2 (21:47):
Yep.
Speaker 1 (21:47):
Like there's no actual, real love relationship between the four
of you. It's just an opportunistic parasite relationship. And then
there's Alicia who's thinking that this is all organic and
true and and she's actually trying to accomplish something in
this polyculee. And I'm like, Alicia, I need you, I
need you to wake up, go to therapy and leave
(22:08):
them and then super custody and get your kids out
of there because I just it's a terrible situation.
Speaker 2 (22:14):
It's absolutely awful. I just like don't see like what
Taya and Sean even bring to the table that's like positive. Besides,
I guess childcare, and if that's the case, like and
Shawn's actually a predator allegedly, then like that's not good.
Speaker 1 (22:27):
No, it's not good at all. Well, maybe they bring
from TikTok money. Maybe they helped to pay for that farm.
I was looking around the farms kids beautiful. Yeah, but
maybe maybe they're bringing financial support. I don't maybe, I
don't know. I hate. Yeah, it's terrible.
Speaker 2 (22:42):
And then, like the last episode, we get into the
blood type conversation, like right off the bat with Taya
going to lunch with her mom at McDonald's or something,
and her mom's like, oh, I'm a nurse, let me
google it. Oh maybe a B person and an O
person can make oh negative baby, Oh my god, Like look,
Sean was wrong. And so then Teya has to go
and confront Sean and she tells him at the ice
(23:04):
cream parlor.
Speaker 1 (23:04):
So nobody like heard about it when it was first
brought up by Sean and decided to do their own
google research. Like, what about you, Tyler, You're the one
who's getting lambasted by Sean for sending this text to
the group chat or whatever which with a blood type
like you didn't think maybe let me just check Google
though and verify this information for yeah on, But of
course not, because it's just a storyline. This was not
(23:26):
real totally.
Speaker 2 (23:28):
TLC producers being like, this would be so great for
drama because you guys are arguing about the paternity when probably,
like in real life, they probably know who the fathers
are of all the kids, like they probably don't care,
just like how in real life they're probably not a
closed squad. They probably have other people coming in from
time to time, and it's like not that big of
(23:48):
a deal, Like it's just all lies.
Speaker 1 (23:51):
It's bad, it's so bad.
Speaker 2 (23:52):
And then we meet another poly couple at the very
end of this weird season, lex and Chris.
Speaker 1 (23:59):
And so to read everybody, Teya, who this whole show
is about, apparently has been talking to Lexi, who lives
to twelve hours away and she really likes Lexi. And
you know, Taya has been feeling in her band sexual self,
like she really needs a box to et and so
Lexi's got a box and they've been talking, and so
she would like for Lexi to come on over to
(24:21):
Oregon or pass on through Libanon or whatever, and so
maybe they could all just get together and spend some
time together and she could get.
Speaker 2 (24:28):
The box because she needs that need to be fulfilled.
Speaker 1 (24:31):
Oh my god. When we get to the part where
she's asking if they can open it and she is
so offended that Tyler wants to open it to then
I'm like, what is going on right now?
Speaker 2 (24:42):
Oh my god? That was actually absolutely wild.
Speaker 1 (24:44):
Well let's talk about Lexi first, and then let's get
to that. Because we meet Lexi and her husband and
they seem like perfectly nice people, except there's got to
be a screw loose if you want to hang out
with these people, Like how do you not walk into
the room, sniff the energy, see Humpty Dumpty sitting there
with the children and be like, oh, I'm pacing the
f out. How does that happen? For real?
Speaker 2 (25:06):
I don't get it. I really don't get it. And
like they we talk about them briefly about how they
were like involved in some triad or something or tripod
and like, I don't know what it means, because there's
so many terms in the polyamory community, so like, don't
come at me if I'm getting it wrong. Like I
guess Lexi didn't like that dynamic because they were only
favoring her husband. Wonder why because you don't look like
(25:28):
a price.
Speaker 1 (25:29):
Oh my god, judge you sorry. I hate these people. Okay,
Oh well go ahead, no go ahead, no, no go ahead.
Speaker 2 (25:36):
I wasn't gonna say anything.
Speaker 1 (25:37):
Well, I'm just gonna say. The rumor is that Teya
and Lexi had actually been dating for quite some time
by the time they actually feel this but film this,
but that the reason that Lexi and her husband Chris
broke up with this degenerate polycule is because they found
out about Sean's allegations. Allegedly, that is why. And so
(25:58):
once they heard about it, because they have kids, and
they brought the kids to the Lebanon farm and so
they learn about their background and they're like, we can't
hang out with you. This can't be a thing. And
so that is why Lexi dumped Taya and back to Instagram.
I believe Taeya made a post fairly recently here saying
like I just am not ready to talk about Lexie.
Speaker 2 (26:19):
I'm unhealed.
Speaker 1 (26:20):
I'm unhealed where it concerns Lexi, I'm like, Okay, she
dumped you because you're married to an alleged PDF file.
Speaker 2 (26:28):
Yeah, well, and that's like the thing that's so fucking stupid.
It's like so online you're you're saying it out loud
that you guys have been dating, but like in this
episode on this show, it's all about, well, we have
a connection and like we're really like into each other,
but like we can't date because I'm a closed quad
and like so we haven't done anything yet, but like
(26:49):
we talk every day, so we're pretending right, like you
guys haven't been in a full fledged relationship this entire time,
and acting like, yeah, you want to establish this connection.
And then we have the discussion where you're talking to
the rest of the quad about how you want to
open it up.
Speaker 1 (27:05):
But before we get there, can we just talk about
if this was really happening in real life and your
friend Alexi took you out for coffee so she could
tell you that she's crushing so hard on you because
you're so hot day up, and you haven't discussed this
yet with your polycule and you're entertaining a conversation where
and you're like, I feel really validated because I'm feeling
(27:26):
the same thing for you, Like, aren't you already betraying
your polychey. Yes, that's like if your friend sat you
down and said Beatrice just so hot and crushing in
you hard, and you're like, oh my god, thank you.
I'm feeling the same way. But let me talk to
my wife, right, there's something inherently wrong with that, there's
but they're immoral anyway, so I guess they wouldn't notice.
Speaker 2 (27:43):
Yeah, it doesn't make any sense because again, like these
fake rules that they have are just for the show,
because like in real life, they probably all have their
own extra people. Maybe I don't know.
Speaker 1 (27:56):
Alicia seems pretty probably not upset, And let me just
say me back track a second. I don't think they're
immoral because they're polyamorous, not at all, and fully, and
I've said it throughout the entire podcast, I'm fully in
supportive alternative lifestyles, you know, like, do you I don't
care there are moral because of the allegations and what
they're allowing to happen around the kids that we can
(28:16):
see in this show. Allegedly in my opinion, just to clarify.
So back to Teya sitting down the rest of the
polycule to let them know that she's crushing hard on
Lexi and she was really thinking about eating the box
so bad, and she wants to open up the polycule,
but just for herself. And she feels like it should
be just for herself because she's pan sexual, which is
(28:38):
absolutely and because she's pan sexual and has a different designation,
I guess for her sexuality, she should be entitled to
do whatever the fuck she wants in her hedonistic lifestyle,
but everybody else has to stay in the closed polycule.
So crazy and so selfish, like inherently selfish.
Speaker 2 (28:58):
So I mean, this whole season has been about a
Taya and like what she gets and what her needs are,
like it all revolves around her for some reason because
of her magical punani. I don't get it, and I think,
like Sean defends it and is like, yo, well yeah,
because she can't get her need elsewhere because Alicia is
straight and won't let Teya violate her box, and so
(29:19):
Taya needs to have that need met. And it's Tyler
who's arguing about it, and saying that he has a
moral issue, an ethical issue with not being able to
explore that himself or have Alisha or Sean or whatever.
They should open up the entire quad and Taya gets
big mad about it.
Speaker 1 (29:39):
Yeah, very very very much. So she's sitting there just
frowning in her recliner with her yoga pants. I'm gonna
leave it right there. And I was like team Tyler
in so far as I have to enter the ring
with you degenerates and argue from the place of your weird,
weird sty lifestyle. Yeah, but based on your weird life
(30:00):
lifestyle and the rules that you guys have stepped forth, well,
then Tyler should feel completely empowered, Yeah, to also step
out of the polycule and go pursue any box he
wants to et. That seems fine, but not to Taya
and not to Alicia. Yeah, because Alicia is already struggling
with the fact that Tyler is banging Taya and seems
to prefer Taya and it might be deeply in love
(30:20):
with Taya, whereas she's not getting any sex from Sean
and it sounds like maybe not Tyler either, who's not
actual lygal husbands. So now she's going to have to
compete with another woman, not just Taya's woman, but Tyler
wants to bring in a woman, and she's already having
to deal with her jealousy and constantly sacrifice because nobody
(30:41):
respects their agreement to not talk about their personal sex
lives around her. They're constantly doing it all the time.
They're constantly doing it, and then they're like, why is
she so mad? Yeah, Sean is like, well, why are
you so mad that I mentioned that we had sex
before I left the bed or whatever? Why are you
so mad? And I'm sorry, I didn't mean to And
I'm thinking to myself, Sean, so you can say I'm sorry,
(31:04):
I didn't mean to say it, but Tyler couldn't say, well,
I'm sorry I didn't mean to send the text to
the right chat with the blood type double stain. You
get to spend three episodes crying like a big back
to baby back rolls, and Alicia can't be upset because
for the umpteenth time, you guys are stomping all over
her boundaries.
Speaker 2 (31:23):
Well and like, you know, to Sean's disgusting credit, like, yeah,
I mean, Alicia, why are you getting upset about knowing
about other people's sex lives when you're in this arrangement
knowing that your husband is beany and tea literally every
single other night. Like at the same time, like I
get Alicia being upset about and just being like, can
you just like please just not talk about it when
(31:44):
I'm around the room? Can you just like wait until
I get the grocery store and then you can talk
about it wherever you want. Like I get that, but
like these people obviously don't respect her. They don't give
a shit about her. They don't care that she's no
contact with her only living parent that she just desperately
wants to have a relationship with. They absolutely love it.
And that's what's so fucked up is that they are
(32:06):
making it so that Tyler and Alicia's kids don't get
to have a relationship with their grandfather either because their grandfather,
who's probably old as fuck and totally set in his ways,
doesn't accept their alternative lifestyle.
Speaker 1 (32:20):
I mean, or the fact that Sean is hanging around
his grandkids. Yeah, that's what I think it probably is.
Speaker 2 (32:27):
They want us to believe.
Speaker 1 (32:28):
That it's all about their lifestyle, and it's so miserable
to see Alicia continuing to approach these people, and Sean
in particular, asking almost for his permission to have a
relationship with her father, as if he has control over
what she, well, he does, he does have control over
what she ultimately does. And it's really sad. And in
(32:50):
this kind of final scene where they're all sitting there
with Taya, she still has no control. She doesn't have
any control over Taya and her decision to blow up
the polycule, control over her legal husband, Tyler, who is
now out of spite, which is what Taya says, now
out of spite gonna go seek out another relationship that
Alisha is going to have to contend with. And then
(33:10):
you have Sean who doesn't give a fuck, and any
opportunity he can take to make Alicia feel even less
than he's gonna take. It's disgusting, it's really sad, And
that's why this whole quad is so gross, Like it's
all of it combined. It's all the allegations against Sean,
It's the mistreatment and bullying of Alicia and the isolation
of her. It's like all of this and all of
(33:31):
the sex talk, Like I want to even think about
y'all bumping ugly.
Speaker 2 (33:34):
I don't want to hear about it.
Speaker 1 (33:35):
I don't want to think about it.
Speaker 2 (33:36):
I couldn't even believe that we had a scene of
Taya just going to jerk off Sean in the bathroom.
I'm just like, this is tlc mm hmm, this is
the Larning channel, this is a family channel. There's kids
on this show, and we have.
Speaker 1 (33:48):
This scene in there.
Speaker 2 (33:50):
I'm just like, I can't, and then the fuck an
edible bodybeait, Yeah, I can't. This whole show was crazy. Yes,
we saw it through though we wanted to give up.
Speaker 1 (33:58):
I did.
Speaker 2 (34:00):
I brot.
Speaker 1 (34:00):
We wanted to give us Beatrice one or two weeks
ago or both of those weeks. And I'm like, do
we really would anybody notice if they didn't see this through?
And You're like, I think we've like quit on a
couple of shows, and people really don't like it. One
we quit, so we have to see it through. And
I'm like, all right, but we did. We did. We
saw it through, and we thank god See had the
foresight to pull the damn plug.
Speaker 2 (34:21):
Honestly, I'm so these people because I don't think I
could have watched another episode, even like watching these two
episodes I'm like, this is taking forever.
Speaker 1 (34:30):
Yeah, it's sucking my life in the Princess Brian incremental time.
I could be doing anything else. I want to be

Speaker 1 (34:56):
I would love some feedback on this. I know that
Polly Family is being replaced by one thousand pound roommates,
which a couple of girls who are going to get
some of that bariatric third.
Speaker 2 (35:09):
I really like pounds.
Speaker 1 (35:10):
We do like a thousand pound context. I love that
very much. But again, I haven't heard anything about Plaidsville
coming back. I would love seeking Sister Wives to come back.
The Merryfields get it.
Speaker 2 (35:24):
Oh, talk about it.
Speaker 1 (35:26):
Right, But I'm not hearing anything about that neither, So
I don't know.
Speaker 2 (35:29):
Yeah, we're seeking brother Husband. Did they like cancel it?
Speaker 1 (35:32):
I think they canceled that and you me and my
ex that was pretty fun. That was lit.
Speaker 2 (35:36):
I want that to come back.
Speaker 1 (35:38):
That was great, great. Actually, yeah, we could go back
to ninety day Fiance. There's always a franchise launching.
Speaker 2 (35:44):
There's there's so much ninety.
Speaker 1 (35:47):
I know, let us know what y'all think, because otherwise
we can do rewind until something hits and inspires us.
Yeah that's cool.
Speaker 2 (35:56):
Gets us excited or whatever. But we would love your feedback.
We asked for it. Sometimes we don't get it.
Speaker 1 (36:01):
Yeah, it's kind of rude.
Speaker 2 (36:02):
Just like, leave us a comment or something. Are you
even listening?
Speaker 1 (36:05):
Or go to Instagram first of all, follow us, and
then you can send a DM to Beatrice and let
her know what your thoughts are. Maybe you could run
some polls and ask the folks if you can be arsed,
can you be urted?
Speaker 2 (36:20):
Well?
Speaker 1 (36:21):
I was actually looking up some subreddits that kind of
are popping off with reality TV and some TLC stuff,
and there's My Big, fat, Fabulous Life with Whitney thor
Or whenever she is. So I think I watched the
first five seasons and I just couldn't don't even know,
(36:41):
but that show is still on. It is still and
then it's like this seven little Johnston's, which I am
quite patting. I'm interested in. I don't know if they
have a current season, if they're going to have another
one coming up, but we could maybe do the last
season of doing that. I am interested. So let us
know what y'all are thinking. Is there anything else that
(37:02):
we need to do before we get up on out
of here and the thunder is coming? I interested thunderstorm
