Justin Richmond
This is Justin Richmond from Broken Record. Are you the kind of person who sets standards for themselves? Like, personally, I told myself if the Lakers lose their do or die Game five, I wouldn't let it impact my mood at home with family. The standard Lexus has set for themselves is to experience amazing. Lexus measures success by the feelings and emotions evoked in a driver, like exhilaration and joy. Amazing can only be achieved by knowing people on a deeper level. The standard of amazing results in machines that make you feel more human, because a car that doesn't make you feel something is a car that stops short of amazing. Experience amazing at your Lexus dealer.

This is Jenna eskowitz and Kevin McHale from and that's what you really missed. Jenna, did you get your delivery?
Jenna Eskowitz
I got my delivery, Kevin. I ripped it open. I'm like a stickler now that I have kids for having high quality products in our house all the time and Dietzen Watson has done that. So like I'm not afraid that when Emma wants to eat all my prosciutto, because she will, that it's okay for her to do that. Dietz and Watson has been handcrafting premium meats and artisan cheeses for over 85 years. They're family owned and operated and they never cut corners.
Tamara Judge
Ever. They do things the right way even if it's the hard way.
Jenna Eskowitz
They're transparent about what goes into their food and what doesn't.
Tamara Judge
They know good taste doesn't need a long list of ingredients, and they stick.
Jenna Eskowitz
To what matters, using the fewest, highest quality ingredients to craft their meats and cheeses.

Jenna Eskowitz
Two T's in a pod with Teddi.
Michaela
Mellencamp and Tamara Judge.
Tamara Judge
Hi, guys. Welcome to another episode of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives on two T's In a Pod with myself, Teddy Mellencamp and Tamara Judge.
Michaela
I like what you did there. You switched. You switched it up.
Tamara Judge
You know what? It was an accident, but.
Michaela
I know, but it works.
Tamara Judge
I was looking at my life.
Michaela
What is she saying?
Tamara Judge
I was like, what am I doing? Listen, I am now. I now am the head podcaster of Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Oh, no. That's the episode we're recapping.
Michaela
Wait, is that the show we're on?
Tamara Judge
Oh, my God.
Michaela
Oh, we're just.
Tamara Judge
We're a big butt.
Michaela
Two teas and a pod today.
Tamara Judge
We're two twats today for sure. We're twatting it up.
Michaela
We're twatting it up. Oh, my gosh.
Tamara Judge
Well, we're going to be recapping episode four and episode five of season two. It starts out with Layla and Cameron are on a date. Cameron grew up very conservative and has never tried beer, but he told Layla he'd try a weed gummy. Layla still hasn't, but I'll try a weed gummy.
Michaela
I'll be honest.
Tamara Judge
Could he set a Venus CBD weed gummy?
Michaela
Yeah, that would have been great.
Tamara Judge
Come on. Layla still hasn't experienced an orgasm with a partner in the LDS Church. You're not supposed to have sex before marriage. So Cameron's parents don't know he's sexually active.
Michaela
Okay, okay, first of all, I want to just say, could the producers at least done Laila a solid and fix those hair extensions?
Tamara Judge
I know.
Michaela
I mean, they were all. First of all, Layla, don't put your hair extensions all the way up to the very top. Because. Because they're always going to show kind of do them mid like they were. Oh, I wanted, I wanted to jump into the screen and fix them.
Tamara Judge
Well, I just also can't take it that it's so funny to me every single time that they are off coffee, but they have no problem drinking these Big Gulp, extra syrupy, sugary.
Michaela
Oh, I know. And talk about gummies and ketamine and all these other things.
Tamara Judge
I'm like, for Pete's sakes.
Michaela
But also that what you call Mormon sober.
Tamara Judge
Yeah. Instead of California sober. That's Mormon sober.
Michaela
Oh my God. There's something I want to talk to you about really quick.
Tamara Judge
Hold on. But I need to know a question.
Michaela
Okay.
Tamara Judge
If you were going to pick one person to have an orgasm with, would you call.
Michaela
Let's skip this question.
Tamara Judge
No. Would you pick somebody? Like, if you're like, you know what, I really want to have an orgasm, let me pick the Cameron whose dad is a bishop who can't talk about being sexually active. I have a feeling it's gonna be.
Michaela
Going on in those trousers. You don't know, but probably not.
Tamara Judge
No. What did you want to talk to me about?
Michaela
I wanted to talk to you about the Instagram post about when Jesse calls out Demi and Brett.
Tamara Judge
Can you read it to me?
Michaela
I do. I have it right here. So Jesse and secret lives and Mormon wives. Their Instagram they posted. Jesse calls it Demi and Brett after they disrespected her in a recent interview. Now Jesse goes on to say a 47 year old washed up loser who can't hold a job and asked my husband and I for ten grand just a few months ago so he could pay his bills.
Tamara Judge
Washed up losers. Pretty harsh.
Michaela
And it is pretty harsh. And then, you know, secret lives and Mormon wives said best friends. Any thoughts? They're actually posting it. Could you imagine if Bravo did that? With all the nasty posts that went on between housewives?
Tamara Judge
I mean, if they just started reposting all the shit. I feel like Bravo takes down some of the really bad shit.
Michaela
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
They're like, no, let's do a repost.
Michaela
Yeah. But this one it's like. So has anybody heard what Brett does for a living?
Tamara Judge
No. All we know is that Jen's husband used to spray bug spray.
Michaela
Oh, it's bug spray, Right?
Tamara Judge
So maybe he's a bug spray guy. I don't know how much that would mean about bug spray.
Michaela
Probably not very much because he's not doing it anymore.
Tamara Judge
True. But that wasn't even him. We don't know what he does, but he's 47 years old. And.
Michaela
But wasn't Jesse and Demi friends?
Tamara Judge
They were. They were besties.
Michaela
They were like. But they look like twins to me.
Tamara Judge
They don't look like twins to me, but I do.
Michaela
They look a lot alike.
Tamara Judge
They have the same hair color because Jesse colors all of their hairs.
Michaela
All their hairs.
Tamara Judge
All their. I mean, it must be nice. Jesse. Jesse. Help me.
Michaela
Help. Help. Oh, my gosh.
Tamara Judge
Have we talked about how Brett was married to Angie Harrington from Salt Lake City? Remember Angie Harrington with the red hair?
Michaela
Stop. What?
Tamara Judge
Yes.
Michaela
I need a picture of them together.
Tamara Judge
Me, too. Let's put it right here on the screen. Angie Harrington and Brett were married beforehand, and then he has known Demi since Demi was 14 years old. They all went to the same church together.
Michaela
Clearly.
Tamara Judge
Allegedly.
Michaela
Clearly didn't go to the same high school together.
Tamara Judge
Good math, Tam.
Michaela
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
But either way, this is, I think, is going to play out throughout the season, and I'm grateful that I haven't watched all of it. I'm forcing myself to watch episode by episode for our recaps because I don't want to get ahead of myself. Yeah, but then Macy don't have the time to. Macy, Michaela and Taylor are grabbing brunch. Taylor checked on Dakota after the Halloween party, but can't say whether or not she's done with him. Taylor gets emotional when talking about her trauma and self worth. And then Macy reads a confession that she got on center Sunday a few months ago. It said, I slept with Demi's husband last year while she was away. I kind of want to start a center Sunday, Sunday, but I call it like sinners Monday. How about people send a lot on Sunday?
Michaela
Yeah. How about 20 Tuesday?
Tamara Judge
20 Tuesday sinners.
Michaela
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
Twatting it up Tuesday. Tell us your sins with people we know, and then we'll. We'll only tell a portion of the people we do know, and then it'll all come out because nobody can keep a secret on this cast, thank goodness.
Michaela
But you know what? Like, how do they know that's real? Like, anybody can.
Tamara Judge
It was real the last time.
Michaela
Oh, it was. Yeah, she did say that. But you don't know it's real. You like, I hope you don't know.
Tamara Judge
Anything that's real or not real. But when she. Her Center Sunday is what got Dakota in trouble in the first place. So I think that it could effortlessly be real. But we'll see. We'll see. We do know that the end of the season Ends with some sort of cheating scandal, so who knows? So it said, I slept with Demi's husband last year while she was away. The girls are all. Oh, but don't seem too surprised. Then Jen goes over to Miranda's. She feels like Miranda's the only person she can go to in the group. Jen asked Miranda a lot of questions about co parenting and her divorce. Then Jen starts to cry and admit she feels so alone. Jen wants to be a part of mom talk, but she knows it's hard for Zach and it's hurting their marriage. I want to be a part of mom talk too.
Michaela
I do too. I kind of went down that rabbit hole about looking at all their Instagram, I mean, their Tick Tock accounts. So. So Taylor has the most following, right?
Tamara Judge
Yes.
Michaela
Okay, so is there. Because I looked for it and there was hardly anything on it. Is there an actual mom talk Tick Tock. Or is they just all their individual.
Tamara Judge
Okay, all their individuals. Because I did have together.
Michaela
Okay. Because I did find a Mom Talk one, but there was like nothing different.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, it was. It was different. Yeah, it was a nothing burger.
Michaela
I mean, Jen was definitely asking all the questions. I. I mean, I think she's trying to figure out what to do with that pregnant self. I mean, she's kind of trapped now.
Tamara Judge
She's kinda.
Michaela
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
Because I think that, you know, good old Zachy Poo is going to have to be the stay at home dad because.
Michaela
Well, because he dropped so his wife can dance on Tick Tock.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, clearly.
Michaela
I mean, that's.
Teddi Mellencamp
That's right there.
Tamara Judge
Well, I'm sorry. It's better money.
Michaela
Well, it probably is, but it's not going to last forever. Well, being a doctor might.
Tamara Judge
Being a doctor might. Unless you're Zach.
Michaela
Well, it sounds like Jen is really missing the church and I think she probably should go back because she was really sitting there talking about how I haven't been to church and I'm not close to God and if, you know, I feel like maybe Jen go to church.
Tamara Judge
I think Jen is missing her friendships with the other women. I think she's upset that she's no longer.
Michaela
Oh, you think? You think it's great to feel the most hated on your cast.
Tamara Judge
Let me tell you, Let me tell you.
Michaela
Let me tell you. Not a great feeling.
Tamara Judge
Tell you what it's like to be the most hated on the interwebs.
Michaela
I've been there too.
Tamara Judge
But anyway, like an Eminem. Oh, is that what you're having for breakfast? Delicious. Then Zach invited Jordan and Brett to go golfing Zach tells them that Chippendale's performance felt insensitive. And then Zach calls them out for almost physically assaulting someone 10 minutes before the dance. That was kind of a smart move on Zach's part, but he brought that right on up. Zach's looking for a diamond or a peach or an orange.
Michaela
Really a mountain.
Tamara Judge
He's looking for a shush.
Michaela
The only thing I can think about this entire how Brett looks like everybody's dad in the same well, of course he's 47.
Tamara Judge
He could be my dad.
Michaela
They're like 25.
Tamara Judge
I guess he couldn't be my dad. Sorry, Zach. You couldn't be my dad. But you could. Effortlessly.
Michaela
Yeah, he could.
Tamara Judge
No, I'm 43. He'd have to have me.
Michaela
What's 43 minus 47?
Tamara Judge
4. 5.
Michaela
44. I mean 14.
Tamara Judge
Do you have to have birthday? 4?
Michaela
No, 14.
Tamara Judge
4. 4 years old, Tim.
Michaela
Oh, wait, I'm thinking 57. Sorry.
Jenna Eskowitz
He looks 50.
Michaela
Sorry. Oh, my God.
Tamara Judge
I was like, even I got this one.
Michaela
I don't know why I was thinking 57. Okay.
Teddi Mellencamp

Then Jordan turns it back on Jen, claiming she knew everything. Brett claims he never would have done it if he knew it would cause issues between Jen and Zach. Of course he would have. And then the only thing I want to see less than Jordan and Brett GR as Chippendales is Jordan and Brett golfing with Zach. No, thank you. I don't care. I don't want to see golfing. I don't want to see fly fishing. I don't want to see it. I want to see.
Michaela
Do you want to see dad talk?
Tamara Judge
I don't want to see dad talking. I don't want to see dance.
Michaela
You want to see them dancing?
Tamara Judge
I don't want to see little.
Michaela
Can we do some of those dances when I see you next?
Tamara Judge
We get so mad. Even when we had. When we had to do our.
Michaela
Shh.
Tamara Judge
We fucked that up, like, 10 times.
Michaela
We're not good on the tick.
Tamara Judge
We're not good at that tick on the tick. We're not good at the tick or the toc.
Michaela
Yeah, we're not good on the tick.
Tamara Judge
Then Dakota and Taylor went to therapy together. Taylor feels like Dakota was finally hearing her and listening to her for the first time. Dakota says he just needs forgiveness from Taylor in this moment. I'm gonna say in this moment, because a lot of moments he really bugs me. I do feel like he really loves Taylor. And Taylor's kind of the one that's like creating the issues, like the past problems.
Michaela
I got a confession.
Tamara Judge
What?
Michaela
I'm falling for Dakota. I'm falling for him one episode at a time. Don't tell anybody.
Tamara Judge
No, I won't tell a story.
Michaela
Don't tell anyone.
Tamara Judge
Sicko.
Michaela
But you know what? Did you notice something about the therapy session?
Tamara Judge
We never saw a therapist because there wasn't one there.
Michaela
I thought that they were in a therapist.
Tamara Judge
It was actually me. Oh, God, it was me going, no, I bet that. I bet no Mormon therapists are gonna agree to be.
Michaela
Oh, really? How about the one last week or the last episode with the pierced eyebrow?
Tamara Judge
Well, she had no problem, but maybe she wasn't Mormon.
Michaela
How do you know this? You're positive this was a Mormon therapist?
Tamara Judge
I mean, I'm not positive about anything, but I feel pretty strongly about it.
Michaela
You're positive that 43 minus 47 is not. It's not 14. Wait, wait, so wait, is 57 minus 43 14?
Tamara Judge
Absolutely. That's too many numbers for me to count. We don't have that kind of time.
Michaela
Okay. At least I got that right.
Tamara Judge
True, true. Then Demi and Jesse are throwing Layla a sex party. They've invited a sexpert that will hopefully remove the taboo around sex. Michaela brings an ass cake and Macy thinks she used it her ass as an inspo. You know, who doesn't use anybody? Nobody has once used my ass as an inspo. It would just be like a saggy, worn down cake deflated with an under thing from a spray tan.
Michaela
It was melted.
Tamara Judge
Melted cake.
Michaela
I have a booty, but because with a hemorrhoid. Hemorrhoids. Yeah, I do have those. Yeah. My hemorrhoids are bigger than my butt right now.
Tamara Judge
Oh, my. So you got a three butt?
Michaela
Yeah, I guess. Yes. I usually have a nice little bubble butt, but I'm a little too thin right now and the butt is just kind of.
Tamara Judge
You know, this is a sensitive topic right now. Do you mind, Tam? Yes, but while the girls are doing this, the guys are together doing dad talks.
Michaela
No.
Tamara Judge
And you know what? They're not good at it.
Michaela
They're not good at it at all.
Tamara Judge
I have one question for you.
Michaela
Hopefully I can answer it.
Tamara Judge
Can the dad survive dad talk? Can they?
Michaela
No, not at all.
Tamara Judge
Then we're back at the. Don't worry.
Michaela
I have real faith in that.
Tamara Judge
We rushed right through that because then we got back to the sex party. Demi claimed she gave Jen a heads up about the Chippendales dance and she seemed all for it.
Michaela
Okay, I need them to stop. I need them to stop right now. Yes, Jen knew the Chippendale dancers were going to be there, but did she know she was going to be singled out? Did she know she was going to only be the only girl there in that chair being grinded on by her friend's husband? By her friend's husband. No, it was actually that the. What do you call it?
Tamara Judge
The one they had guy.
Michaela
Yeah. With her husband that her Husband isn't comfortable with it. I think Jen knew that they were going to do that, but she thought she was going to be in the audience watching.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, I know. I'm kind of over this whole portion.
Michaela
Enough.
Tamara Judge
But then the girls start with the sex therapist and go around in a circle and say what arouses them. I can tell you not many things that they had on this table arouses me.
Michaela
Well, you know what arouses me?
Tamara Judge
What?
Michaela
Putting my sweats on, taking my gummy, nobody bothering me. And I'm in bed by 8pm I'm.
Tamara Judge
Like, this is going to take for me, it's going to take more than Tamara getting a red little whip and kind of spanking me softly to get. Get things going with all my antidepressants.
Michaela
The certified sex coach comes with whips, dildos, feathers, butt plugs, and a vulva puppet.
Tamara Judge
Oh, my gosh.
Michaela
None of those turned me on.
Tamara Judge
Well, it's not that none of those turned me on, but watching these awkward girls try to touch them for the first time like it is the first time definitely didn't turn me on.
Michaela
I don't know, maybe if I had a big shot of testosterone, it would be. I'd be turned on by all that stuff.
Tamara Judge
What about how Layla can't answer the question? She has no idea. But then we find out she may be end up being whipped and spanked, allegedly.
Michaela
But can Layla give herself a O?
Tamara Judge
I don't think so. I think if she says she's never been given an O, she probably has never tried to give herself an O.
Michaela
Right. Don't you think once you know how to do it yourself? Like, I'm so confused on all this. Is this normal girls? Like, are there girls that just. It just doesn't happen.
Tamara Judge
I mean, a lot of you are pronounced. A lot of you are promoting dildos, so I would hope you're using them. Yeah, but just food for thought. I don't really like a dildo that goes inside and most of you guys promote those, so maybe get one for the outside and see how it goes for you. Just.
Michaela
Yeah. You know, one thing I never want to hear again. We're going to eat ass. When she goes, are we gonna eat the ass?
Tamara Judge
You know how I feel about that.
Michaela
No, I never wanna hear that again.
Tamara Judge
But then Layla's takeaway from this party is that it's hard. That she likes it hard and rough. And then after the sex stuff is over, Demi decides to talk to Jen in front of everyone. Right Now Jen says she's keeping the details of her marriage between her and Zach. It's cause she can't announce that she's pregnant yet. Cause she's too early on.
Michaela
Yeah, but smart for her not to give these girls any info. Because it seems like any info she gives about her marriage, they either turn around and say she's lying or she, you know, they use it against her.
Tamara Judge
Yeah. Then Macy's hosting a dinner to celebrate her new book deal. This kind of made me sad. I wish she would have told one of her friends and one of her friends would have thrown a party for her. I feel like would have thrown it.
Michaela
Do you think like Demi wasn't happy?
Tamara Judge
Oh my gosh to me. Demi, Demi, whatever.
Michaela
How do you say her name? Demi or Demi? I see more Demi.
Tamara Judge
She never seemed more unhappy about somebody getting a book deal. But Macy does have a pretty incredible story. And Macy seems like the smartest tool in the shed.
Michaela
You know what even pissed her off more?
Tamara Judge
What?
Michaela
When she heard that she was going to be judging a celebrity pickleball tournament.
Tamara Judge
And then why did you confused what a celebrity pickleball tournament was?
Michaela
She's like, why not me? Why am I not getting a book deal? She's like that girl in Willy Wonka that turns into a blueberry.
Tamara Judge
She. She really bugs. But in the confessional, she. Demi tends to make judgmental jokes and takes little jabs at people. She's just kind of a jabber type. And I didn't really appreciate it. After Macy talks about having her book deal and hosting this celebrity pickleball competition, she. Tensions are already a little bit high because of the seating chart. Then she goes and says she wants everybody to write down a confession game. So let's read each confession.
Michaela
Okay. I am trying to get pregnant.
Tamara Judge
Who do you think that is?
Michaela
I don't know. Aren't they all pregnant at this point?
Tamara Judge
Yeah. I mean, who's left? The only person that's not pregnant.
Michaela
Well, it's the single one. So Layla's not trying to get pregnant. Miranda's not trying to get pregnant. We know that Jen's not trying to get pregnant. The other two and we know just had a baby. Whitney. So we have Macy and Michaela.
Tamara Judge
Well, is Macy pregnant at this point? No. So she might be trying to get pregnant.
Michaela
Are they both pregnant? Macy, Michaela.
Tamara Judge
But I don't know that Macy's announced it on the show yet. I think it comes up later. So I think it's Macy.
Michaela
Well, she's doing interviews now, so she. Yeah, so it's probably her.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, I Think it's Macy. Yeah. I once had a man suck on my toes. Then I immediately left. I feel like that's gotta be Taylor.
Michaela
Taylor. I've had sex in five high school parking lots. That sounds like Taylor, too.
Tamara Judge
The first time I threw. The first time I swallowed, I threw up. Threw up immediately. I feel like that's gotta be that one chick that bugs. What's her name?
Michaela
Whitney.
Tamara Judge
Yes, Whitney. Thank you. My favorite place to do it is in the swimming pool slash hot tub. Hashtag yummy. That's gotta be. That's gotta be messy, Jesse. Because who's gonna write hashtag yummy, yummy?
Michaela
I don't know. I feel like Layla might. I think Jen is.
Tamara Judge
Because we know Layla says I think Jen is fake.
Michaela
Well, we know that now. But during this, I did not think it was her at all.
Tamara Judge
I thought it was Demi or Jesse.
Michaela
Me, too. That's what I've written down. I thought it was Demi or Jesse that wrote that.
Tamara Judge
But I also want to know how many parking lots. How many high school parking lots there are in this area. Like, I've been to Utah.
Michaela
I've actually been to sex in a high school parking lot. Or I know, but our. Several parking lots.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, that says I've had sex in five high school parking lots.
Michaela
There's not five high school parking lots in Utah.
Tamara Judge
That's my point. Where are you going?
Michaela
Maybe five different times. Maybe she meant five parking lots, period. Like, as long as she didn't say, like, in a preschool parking lot.
Tamara Judge
I mean, that's true. That's awkward.
Michaela
Or elementary.
Tamara Judge
Well, maybe it's after she drops her kids off.
Teddi Mellencamp
Oh, God.
Tamara Judge
Oh, gosh. All right, well, let's take a quick break, and then we'll be back to episode five. Okay. We pick back up at Macy's party where some anonymously wrote that Jen is fake. Jen starts to cry after I felt bad for her.
Michaela
Did you notice that Jen was the only one that walked up and hugged Macy and congratulated her when she announced her book deal? Like, she. You could tell, genuinely, like, she's a good person inside.
Tamara Judge
I know. It kind of made me sad, the whole thing.
Michaela
And, like, leave Jen alone.
Tamara Judge
And it'd be one thing if they were dogging out chicks on every single one of those confessions. But nobody else was getting dogged out.
Michaela
I know.
Tamara Judge
But when everyone leaves, Whitney and Miranda stay back to console Jen. Jen wonders if she actually is fake. It's really sad.
Michaela
It's really sad. Like, that was just mean.
Tamara Judge
Not as sad as that. When we see Whitney and Miranda picking up flowers for Whitney's baby shower. And Miranda guesses that Demi, Michael and Jesse won't show up. And then she sends a group text that no one responds.
Michaela
Well, I give her an A for effort but somebody they could have thumbs up it or hearted it or something. Now we're going to left the chat.
Tamara Judge
Do something.
Michaela
Well, let the chat would be a little drastic. But remind me what Whitney did that was so bad to these girls.
Tamara Judge
She was terrible and kept not showing up. But Whitney's pivot from mom talk to I desperately need to be back with them is a shame and kind of sad to see.
Michaela
Okay, so Whitney was an to them.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, Whitney you would have.
Michaela
And didn't she? She didn't go to Taylor's baby shower, right? No, no show and then her Taylor's look alike mom called her like where.
Tamara Judge
She was all wrapped up.
Michaela
Yeah, but then she shouldn't expect Taylor to be there.
Tamara Judge
But Taylor is there. I know she knows that Taylor will come because Taylor ain't missing a chance. Taylor ain't losing this job. She ain't losing this bag.
Michaela
She knows how to play the game.
Tamara Judge
Yeah. Then Taylor's at her mom's house. She made a tick tock with Dakota that says life lately and shows Dakota handing her flowers and doing the housework. She pretends it's just a tick tock but everyone assumes they're back together. Taylor, I thought it was cute. It is.
Michaela
I thought it was funny. Like he's here. He is. He's back. But he's my little bitch.
Tamara Judge
Do you. But he's not really back.
Michaela
That's the part that keep him guessing. What are your thoughts on her having sex with him?
Tamara Judge
You know what, of course they're going to have sex. They're nowhere near being done.
Michaela
No, I know, but she said something about having sex with Dakota is like a trauma response.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, because she consistently makes bad decisions and she has a bad relationship with sex and so she has this trauma response to where she fights with somebody and then has sex with them before they leave.
Michaela
Well, I do like her mom's advice to her.
Tamara Judge
You do? Because I need to be. Stop. Stop being thirstier than frickin Whitney for camera time.
Michaela
No, I didn't. I was just. I was just making fun of her. But you let me finish. But for her mom to tell her to use a vibrator. Oh no. I don't want my mom. I don't ever want you have these conversations with my mom. Ever. I don't. I personally don't Think there's anything wrong with them having sex? My God. They have a child together, like, you know, whatever works for them.
Tamara Judge
Whatever. Just.
Michaela
And end up together. I don't know. I don't know where they're at today, but I think they're. They have a child together. I think they should make it work if they can. Like, they're young.
Tamara Judge
I think they need to stop fighting and get over the past jealousy issues and see if there's any new ones that arise. See if they end up in the Tamara and Teddy. What did we call our new show where it's people tell us secrets.
Michaela
Oh, Twaty Tuesday.
Tamara Judge
Twaty Tuesday. Then Whitney calls Macy to talk about a recent TikTok that Michaela made. Michaela constantly makes fun of Whitney on TikTok, but Macy participated in a recent one. Macy claims she didn't know what Michaela was going to caption it. Whitney wants to talk to Michaela before the girls trip, and Macy offers to facilitate it. This is the only show where you can go, yeah, fighting over TikTok makes sense.
Michaela
Yeah, but it's pretty damn petty for Michaela to make tiktoks about Whitney and then say, like, I want nothing to do with you. If you want nothing to do with her, then stop making tiktoks about her.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, it's the same thing as Dakota doing tiktoks.
Michaela
No, it's not the same as Dakota doing tiktoks with Taylor because. Because she's doing Michaela's doing mean tiktoks about Whitney.
Tamara Judge
Oh, you're right. You're right.
Michaela
So they're. She's doing mean ones. It's like, come on, you're being really petty. Like, I don't think that you need to do this. If you don't like her, don't like her. But you're egging her on.
Tamara Judge
Yeah.
Michaela
You know, unless. Unless Whitney's doing mean ones about her. Haven't heard about that.
Tamara Judge
We haven't heard about that yet. But Whitney might be booked up. She's filming a TV show she just birthed like a week ago. She's. She might be not doing that much on the talk.
Michaela
Yeah.
Tamara Judge
And her husband's apparently getting his. His action. She's definitely not the one that says she wants to get pregnant.
Michaela
No.
Tamara Judge
Then to. Me and Jesse are going to pilates together. Jesse brings her bouquet of flowers because she's about to hit 1 million followers on the talk. You didn't bring me flowers when I hit 1.2 million on Instagram, Tam.
Michaela
Because I know you hate flowers.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, that's true. I hate.
Michaela
She's like, send me money, send me.
Tamara Judge
Clothes, send me snacks, food.
Michaela
But don't send me the Thai food. The Thai food.
Tamara Judge
But know the only flowers I do like in case anybody's interested on this group is I like an orchid because they live.
Michaela
Oh, okay.
Tamara Judge
Anything else, I kill within days. But then Jesse and Demi decide to do a hibachi night the day of Whitney's baby shower for the girls who aren't going. Demi says Zach called her right before their Pilates class, and they talked for 45 minutes to me. Stop talking to Zach.
Michaela
Why are you talking to Zach? That's weird. And by the way, nothing says classy like hibachi dinner in your front yard.
Tamara Judge
Listen, I do that shit all the.
Michaela
Time in your backyard. They're literally like. When you see them out there, there's like, you could see the stop sign.
Tamara Judge
I love that there's a difference between front yard and backyard.
Michaela
There is. It's like. Like when you're doing on your front yard, it's just kind of like, you do it back. You do it back.
Tamara Judge
What about how Zach says to Demi, allegedly because this is off camera, that he feels like his own wife is lying to him? First it was the Ben Affleck thing, and now it's pretending like she didn't know it about the Chippendale's performance. Jesse's doing Jen's hair tomorrow, so she's trying to figure out what to say. Zach calling his wife friends to talk shit about his wife.
Michaela
Oh, punchable.
Tamara Judge
So punchable.
Michaela
Sh. I don't like that at all.
Tamara Judge
And then Jen and Zach are talking about mom talk. Jane claims their purpose is to empower women. Don't want to hear it again. Don't. I don't know.
Michaela
And there's no empowering going on.
Tamara Judge
There's zero empowerment.
Michaela
They're all backstabbing each other.
Tamara Judge
This isn't even toxic positivity, because there's no positivity.
Michaela
Why is Jen living in an Airbnb?
Tamara Judge
Because she moved away from med school place.
Michaela
Oh, they moved to Hawaii. No, no, that was the other couple.
Tamara Judge
So they moved to somewhere. To Arizona for him to go to medicine.
Michaela
Was it New York or Arizona?
Tamara Judge
Arizona.
Michaela
So they. So they couldn't find a house. So they're just air, isn't it?
Tamara Judge
No, she came back alone, and then he followed her when she started filming.
Michaela
But why an Airbnb? Isn't it kind of more expensive to do that instead of a rental?
Tamara Judge
Maybe she thought it was Going to be a day by day.
Michaela
Well, there's one thing that I do agree with, Zach. Jen was saying she couldn't sleep because of the panic. She's having panic attacks and all this stuff because of the girls and all the stress she's having. I just feel like he's right. It's not worth it. Like this group of girls if it's causing her this mistress, especially if she's pregnant now. Worth it.
Tamara Judge
I gotta tell you something. It's gonna be a lot more stressful when the only income they have is him trying to get the bug spray job back. So suck it up, buttercup. Make some friends and get your shit done on the Talk. Well, sorry.
Michaela
She has her own Instagram. So what she makes on her Instagram.
Tamara Judge
But if she's not connected to them, it's not.
Michaela
They don't make as much. So how do they determine who's going to film for who's TikTok?
Tamara Judge
They have like a whole. They have, like a TikTok house. I don't know. This is above our. This is above our pay grade. We don't understand this because no one does this for us. But we're willing to get a TikTok house if somebody wants to pay for it. And I'll learn a dance or two.
Michaela
I'll try.
Tamara Judge
I take a month. So they're Jesse and Jen meet before the appointment. And this is where Jim claimed she was dressing, that she knew about Brett dressing up. Then Jesse reminds her, they said there would be surprises. And she said, go for it. They continue fighting back and forth. The waitress drops off their hot chocolates.
Michaela
I mean, Jen saying that she's from the hood.
Tamara Judge
Oh, I didn't know.
Michaela
Did you find that funny or a little bit cringey? She's like, I'm from the hood.
Tamara Judge
And then she started doing hand motions. And then Zach goes, what's a hand? Zach goes, you're from Provo. And she goes, but I lived. And then she does some kind of hand motion. I'm like, absolutely not.
Michaela
One in the pink, one in the stink. That's the only hand motion I know.
Tamara Judge
You've got one in the pink, one in the stink. The shocker.
Michaela
The shocker.
Tamara Judge
Tam hates to talk about sex, but she's willing to talk about one in the pink, one in the stink. But then Zach calling her a liar in that situation too. But Janet says she's been told that by the family for six years. I'm assuming the family told her this is a joke. She believed it. She told people Whatever.
Michaela
And now she's like, I'm, I'm. I said it. I gotta stand by it. Yeah, but, you know, she can at least said to her husband, like, what, you mean your family was lying to me or joking with me? I had no idea. She could have twisted that or, you.
Tamara Judge
Know, I mean, she could have tried to twist it, but she did.
Michaela
I mean, she could have twisted back the other way to be like, oh, my God, I thought they were serious.
Tamara Judge
Or, why don't you talk to your family and tell them they shouldn't say those things to people? Get in a fight with them about it. Do something else.
Michaela
What are your thoughts when Jen says she didn't give consent for Jesse's husband to rub his little dick on her? I felt like that was a mic drop moment right there.
Tamara Judge
So as the fight is getting worse and worse, she looks at her and she goes, just because I don't want to swing with you, Jesse. Implying that Jesse was once a swinger. And then Jesse admits it in her.
Michaela
Confessional and says she should never admit that. But I feel like Jen has a problem getting her words out and she gets frustrated and mad and then she just gets nasty.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, but she was speaking from experience about messy. Jesse is messy. Jesse was like, yeah, in my past relationships, I did swing a bit, but, you know, old news. But I told her that in confidence. And the fact that she brought that out was up and it was. Now that we know that she told her in confidence.
Michaela
Well, she, she, Jen also told the girls in confidence that, you know, she was having some issues. Their marriage.
Tamara Judge
You didn't tell them in confidence. She told them on a television show where we watched it.
Michaela
But she did not have to admit. I just assume as a viewer, she was talking about the swinging, soft swinging ordeal that happened.
Tamara Judge
You know, Jessie wasn't a part of that. Jesse was a part of her own soft swinging. Now I need to know who those people are. Was that.
Michaela
Oh, I'm sure they're going to come.
Tamara Judge
Out of the woods, girl.
Michaela
I'm sure they're. Oh, yes. Must have been her.
Tamara Judge
Then. Macy and Michaela are driving to Sunshine Buns, and that's when Macy reveals that Whitney will be there. This entire thing made me very uncomfortable.
Michaela
Well, I would, I would punch you if you did this to me. Oh, by the way, Tamara, we' driving to get some coffee or something and.
Tamara Judge
I'm gonna leave you. I'm gonna.
Michaela
Yes, I'm. You're gonna, I'm gonna drop you off and you're gonna be the Vicki but.
Tamara Judge
Also, it was kind of a brilliant idea to work to video. Not video, but voice notes so we could hear each other's conversation. But then she. It up and muted it.
Michaela
Muted it. I'm like, oh, my God.
Tamara Judge
Ah, gosh. But so nothing gets accomplished here. Michaela has no interest in, you know, having a relationship.
Michaela
I actually felt bad for Whitney. What is wrong with me? First Dakota, now Whitney.
Tamara Judge
You've. Cause you. Somehow you've developed a heart. And I don't know how I feel about it.
Michaela
I don't know either.
Tamara Judge
But then Dakota is at Taylor's house so they can talk about the relationship. Taylor tells them they need to step back, and he starts crying, but he's understanding.
Michaela
Not me. Feeling sorry for Dakota now.
Tamara Judge
Not. Yep, of course.
Michaela
I gotta get rid of this heart.
Tamara Judge
This heart is really bugging.
Michaela
This heart is really.
Tamara Judge
It's bugging. It's beating. It's doing all the things. And then it's the day of Whitney's baby shower. She has baby bunnies so people can hold them and not her baby. That's a smart plan. But also, maybe don't have your little tiny baby at the baby shower. That's also a good plan.
Michaela
It's more like a meet and greet or a sip and se. Or whatever you want to call it, but.
Tamara Judge
Right. But the baby is less than six weeks old, I think, at this point.
Michaela
Okay, I have a confession.
Tamara Judge
What?
Michaela
Somebody. No. Somebody recently said to me that had a baby, like, oh, do you want to hold him?
Tamara Judge
And you said, no.
Michaela
I said, yes, but I thought, no, I don't.
Tamara Judge
Well, you know, in some places, in some cultures, it's bad luck if somebody doesn't want to hold your baby.
Teddi Mellencamp
No.
Michaela
I can admire from afar.
Tamara Judge
I'll touch its head in the sunset.
Michaela
Raising kids for 39 years. No.
Tamara Judge
Well, then Jen shows up and tells her and tells Whitney that Layla is the one that wrote the confession about her. And then Jen feels like Layla was trying to fit in with Demi and Jesse just so she can be a part of mom talk. Well, good work, because this is working. And then she's done with those girls, and she's done with going to Jay Z Styles as well. You know what? I'm not. I'd love to go to Jay Z Styles.
Michaela
Jay Z style. I don't even know J. Jay Z Styles. Is.
Tamara Judge
That's the hair place.
Michaela
Oh, that's Jesse's hair place.
Tamara Judge
Yes. Come on. And then Demi and Jen.
Michaela
Don't you think that. Do you think that Jesse looks like Jen from Orange County? But with dark hair a little bit.
Tamara Judge
I haven't noticed it, but now I can sort of see it.
Michaela
She reminds me of her with just dark hair.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, I'm starting to see it a little bit. But now we're starting to see that Demi and Jen's fallout stems from everything that happens in Italy. Taylor tells them all about the sinner Sunday confession Macy received. Yes. I love. Good work, Taylor. Don't let Macy come around and do it because she's taking too long talking about pickleball and shit. So we need Taylor to come out.
Michaela
And I mean, Taylor dropping the confession was epic. But how quickly these friend group changes, you know what I mean? Like they're one, they're over here, then they're over there, then they don't like this one. They're, they're, they're backstabbing.
Tamara Judge
But then at the same time as this all happens, which is this all great television. Jesse's hosting her hibachi dinner over at.
Michaela
The hibachi dinner in the front yard. Looking at the stop sign and the car's going by.
Tamara Judge
I love Tam upset with the front yard hibachi. Jesse, Demi, Lay, Kayla and Michaela are there to me And Jesse don't really mind Whitney anymore. It's Jen they mind and Jesse says she's going to dominate Jen.
Michaela
So Jen is the new Whitney now in the group.
Tamara Judge
Jen, like every.
Michaela
Everybody dislikes her.
Tamara Judge
Yeah, but I don't. Everybody dislikes her because why? Because she's a liar or because they don't like her husband or.
Michaela
I don't, I don't. Maybe they like him a little too much. Some of them are having 45 minute conversations with him on the phone, on the telephone, on the, on the Dial it up.
Tamara Judge
Oh, we just did the pink and the stinks. But thanks guys for tuning in for another episode. We love you guys. We love the secret lives of Mormon wives. And we will pick up the next episode soon. Keep up the good work.
Michaela
Don't take our criticism to heart. You're only as good as this week's episode.
Tamara Judge
Cheers.
