Main Discussion

1. Season Highlights and Reactions

Ben and Ronnie kick off the episode by expressing their enthusiasm for McBee Dynasty, particularly the "great chicken drama of 2025." Ben shares his amusement over Galena's antics, stating, "I love that psychopath. Love her." [01:24] Ronnie emphasizes the show's unpredictability and humor, setting the tone for their in-depth analysis.

2. Family Dynamics and Conflicts

The McBee family continues to navigate turbulent relationships. The primary focus is on the tension between Cole and Stephen Jr., especially after Cole's disastrous attempt to showcase his combine, resulting in damage and personal injuries.

• Combine Crash Incident: Cole's attempt to impress the town with his combine leads to a collision, causing significant damage. Ben humorously remarks, "I'm not coming over there. You made your own bunny stew." [02:16] This incident exacerbates existing tensions within the family and raises questions about Cole's competence and responsibility.

3. Galena's Struggles and Substance Abuse

A significant portion of the episode centers around Galena, the matriarch struggling with alcohol abuse. Stephen Jr.'s confrontation with Galena reveals a deeper issue affecting both her professional and personal life.

• Stephen Jr. vs. Galena: Stephen Jr. challenges Galena's behavior, pointing out multiple instances of her drinking on the job. Ronnie comments, "Do not lie to me. Do not lie to me. Galena, this is crazy." [52:19] Galena's denial and continued reckless behavior highlight the family's inability to address underlying problems effectively.

4. Relationship Strains and Marital Issues

The episode delves into Jesse and Ally's strained relationship, exploring the challenges of maintaining a marriage amidst family chaos and differing lifestyles.

• Jesse and Ally's Tensions: Jesse's reluctance to attend social events due to his obligations on the farm creates friction with Ally, who is more inclined towards city life. Ben humorously notes, "Marriage should suck for you both, so you should both be miserable." [44:07] Their inability to reconcile their differences underscores the deeper issues plaguing the McBee family.

5. The Mystery of the Missing Chicken, Ginger

The subplot involving the missing chicken, Ginger, adds another layer of intrigue to the episode. The family's attempt to locate Ginger leads to humorous exchanges and highlights the absurdity of their conflicts.

• Search for Ginger: Ben quips, "Ginger stole my man. So she's like, don't even worry about that, boss." [09:12] The search for Ginger serves as a metaphor for the family's inability to address their internal problems cohesively.

[Ben]

Good times. All right, let's jump into some McBee dynasty. Last we saw McBee dynasty.

[Ronnie]

They're just children.

[Ben]

They're just children.

[Ronnie]

Callous seemed to be riding off to green her pastures back home. And then she came to find out poor Stephen had invited her with gender reveal. I mean, the Whole deal is confusing to me at this point. I mean, you're putting smoke outside a helicopter, and one is pink and one's blue. We're gonna confuse the geese down below. What about the cows? I mean, you're wind up hitting a combine into a combine. If I know anything about Herman, what.

[Ben]

If that baby comes out identifying as a tractor? What do you do then? What's the color for that?

[Ronnie]

Previously on McBee Dynasty. I learned how to make a flyer using Microsoft Word, and we got some good clip area out of it. And I made up a good pun that said, is it gonna be a Mickey? A Mickey or a McTrek or stay tuned.

[Ben]

Meanwhile, yours truly here rolled out the welcome wagon for the new Russian in town, Masha. And I ain't no weather girl, but I think there's a storm a brewing. Someone made me do my life like this. I just want Tessa to narrate my life. And there Ronnie goes, getting out of bed at 12pm Even though his dog got him up at 6am Read Trashy Teenager Young Adult Bulls. See it for E. 10 Bagels in a row. There he goes. Good luck, children.

[Ronnie]

I think this show needs a lot more Tessa and a lot less Stephen. That's gonna be my note there, because Tessa is the most entertaining part of the whole. Well, I mean, you could. Galena is probably the most entertaining part, but Tessa is, like, the one that I enjoy. Like, she's the actually the only person who I like. My heart, like, actually opens up a centimeter when I see her on screen. And everyone else, I'm just like, oh, but, like, Tessa, give us more Tessa. Why do we only get her in these opening scenes here?

[Ben]

Yeah, I think it was very smart to make Tessa the narrator of this after Steve Sr. Left, because she's. She's keeping it together. Well, someone made a mess of the lodge, not to mention that handheld. Or her. That's what I consider foul play. Someone could explain that to me. I don't really get that.

[Ronnie]

Why would a chicken be playing baseball? So. So, Ally, she's at a place called the Fine Stitch. She's trying on wedding dresses for her friends. We're all named, like, Halle, Callie, and Valley. And then Stephen Jr. He's. Everyone, guess what. Harvest season's coming up, so we're gonna have a meeting. So, y', all, guess what we need to harvest. Always be harvesting, abc. Always be harvesting. Stephen, there's no sea in harvest. Oh, yeah. There is now, because we're McBees and we put season everything that we want. Okay. When we want to do it, we're $6 million a day.

[Ben]

It's a kickoff to the McHarvest, right? McHarvest. McBee Farm Harvest.

[Ronnie]

Harv.

[Ben]

He's like, yeah, the harvest is our Super Bowl. Oh, okay. I'm sure the super bowl is your super bowl because you all have Super Bowl. I mean, gays can say things like that, right? Where we're like, oh, yeah, you know, the Beyonce concert? That's our super bowl because we're gay. You guys already have your Super Bowl. It's called the Super Bowl, Steve.

[Ronnie]

Yeah, you have the Super Bowl. You have it. Although I have the super bowl, too, because I'm. I love football. So then Kala. Kala is at her condo, and she's calling her mom to be like, I'm at the condo mom. And then we go to a truck. I mean, least shocking words said recapping this show.

[Ben]

A baby.

[Ronnie]

We're going to the truck, and Cole and Casey and Masha calls, and Masha's like, hello, Cole. How are you? And he's like, good. Casey and I just heading into town right now. She's like, oh, good. Well, I just got to ranch, and I really don't want to be here by myself, so I don't know if you guys can meet me here. But I always hear that ranch goes well with cold cuts. And you are Cole, and I'm at ranch, so I would really appreciate it. Please come by.

[Ben]

No, I'm not coming over there. You made your own bunny stew. You fucking sit there and stew in it yourself. I'm not gonna go over there and clean up your crap. Okay? Have my dad do it, who you've been fucking cheating with, okay? Have that asshole come over and do it. I'm not doing that, Masha. But Coleslaw West. So he's like, oh, we're just coming into town now, so we can be there in five to ten. It's like, awesome. Thank you so much, Cole. Goodbye. So he's nervous. He doesn't want to go over there, but they have to, because he has to clean up all of his dad's bullshit because his dad has led him to believe that he could one day lead McHarvest Day at the McBee Dynasty.

[Ronnie]

So Casey's like, I really wish Galena would move on from the Steven and smash the situation. Because Colin, I already the ones who have to deal with it and go over and clean up the mess. Like, okay, well, Casey's a real. She really comes alive on screen. I'll Tell you that much.

[Ben]

She really crackles that. That kid. But, you know, I feel for Casey the most because I feel like at least everybody else ends up with a hot guy, you know? And Casey has to do all this, and she's just with the. The dumb one, you know?

[Ronnie]

Casey and I know Sunshine Bland.

[Ben]

Yeah. So then we get a flashback to Stephen Jr. Talking about the $7,000 of damage to Masha's car and asking Galena if she knew anything about it. She's like, oh, no, no. I know nothing about that.

[Ronnie]

So Casey's like, casey asked the question that we're all thinking. She hasn't gotten fired yet, right?

[Ben]

It's like, no, no. She's got your balls in a vice. She runs the whole company. She's got. She's been helping this man, probably with all of his shady business. She's going to take you all down. I wouldn't with her.

[Ronnie]

Yeah. So they get to the ranch, and Cole's like, hey, how was your trip to. What was it called? To lump? It's like, Tulum flip was great. And he's like, so it's your first time being back? She's like, yes. I am so anxious. Oh, can we look at birdie? Look at chickens? Oh, no. Oh, no. Ginger missing. Ginger is my favorite chicken.

[Ben]

Co's like, oh, where's Ginger for five days, Masha? Okay, Ginger's your favorite. You're not fond of the chickens in this. This quick a time.

[Ronnie]

There was never a chicken named Ginger. I'm gonna tell you that right now. So.

[Ben]

And you people are farmers. You're selling animals to eat and to murder. So I'm not gonna feel bad for your chicken running away. I'm rooting for the chickens. I mean, if anything, Galena set those things free. Like, gave him a chance, you know, I saw chicken run. Masha.

[Ronnie]

Yeah. Masha's like. She's like, oh, Ginger was friendliest chicken ever. Like, I guarantee she was just like all the other chickens. She was not a friendlier chicken. I'm just. I'm just gonna say that.

[Ben]

Funny, that's how Steve Senior described you. So Casey's like, well, she probably stole him. Kiss. The door was just wide open. Girl's like, yeah, anytime you leave a door open during dark, as soon as it gets dark, they're done for. Them chickens are done for. She's like, oh, this is like, next level sick. What's next? What, is she going to sleep with best friend's man and steal him away?

[Ronnie]

God, it is. This is so sick. And Disturbing. Leaving a door open for a fox to come in and eat a chicken the way it would happen in nature. Disgusting. I mean, those chickens should be eaten by humans, not by foxes. What sort of game is this?

[Ben]

We're supposed to be allowed to murder the chickens. Marsha's like, I'm going to miss Ginger. I couldn't wait to eat her.

[Ronnie]

I like that the animals, honestly, the foxes sort of have the same feeling. Like, just no one wants to deal with this family. Because to be. To be honest, there were still, like, nine or 10 chickens left, including babies. Like, those predators were like, honestly, I really just don't with those McBee chickens.

[Ben]

I want something more. Like, how stupid chickens are. Like, the door is open. You see Ginger running.

[Ronnie]

Ginger knew what was up? No, but they also know, like, Ginger went out there. Look, I. Ronnie, I didn't tell you. I finally saw Sinners. As I mentioned about five times last week on the podcast, we all know what happens when you leave the barn. Don't. Don't leave the barn, Ginger. Ginger had the right instinct to be like, freedom, but was it? Freedom comes at a price, though. Ginger. Maybe, yeah.

[Ben]

What else is freedom? But nothing left to lose or whatever. Ginger. And if Ginger does leave the barn, don't let Ginger back in the barn. Yeah, it's another lesson I feel like you guys need to learn.

[Ronnie]

Ginger's like, guys, I really mess up, and I don't like it out there, so I'm gonna come back into the coop. Like, oh, welcome back. Ginger's like, so you guys are gonna.

[Ben]

Let me in or something?

[Ronnie]

What? You gonna let me in? Ginger, you've been in this coupe a million times, so you can let me in. Like, what's going on?

[Ben]

I can sing. Amazing Grace. How sweet.

[Ronnie]

Where'd you get that banjo? Just want to sing with you guys. Just want to jam with you guys. We're not even. We're not even musicians. Okay, I'll end it now.

[Ben]

No. Sorry. I thought it was over. It's never over. I should know that.

[Ronnie]

Never end.

[Ben]

So Cole's like, so there's some chickens missing. We don't know where they're at, but I don't got proof it's Galena. But, you know, I've been in some toxic fights. I almost had an ex girlfriend roll me over with the car one time.

[Ronnie]

Just want to say to that ex girlfriend, you need to drive better. Okay?

[Ben]

Seriously, get better.

[Ronnie]

Start it, finish it.

[Ben]

Can Galena start giving driving lessons? That would be nice.

[Ronnie]

Like, how do you miss Cole? I'm Sorry. That man is. You cannot tell me that man can get out of the way of a car.

[Ben]

So then back in the chicken coop, Cole's like, so when's the last time you and her talk says. I mean, it's been months. Well, have you ever thought about talking to her and just, you know, trying to figure it out? Maybe get her to stop? What is there to figure? I cannot. Can you imagine this conversation? What. What should I say? Could you stop killing my chickens? Could you. I mean, maybe stop eating Ginger?

[Ronnie]

It's a start. She's.

[Ben]

It's.

[Ronnie]

I think that's a fair way to start a conversation. Could you please stop killing my chickens? Also, I just bought that frying pan. Could you not bash my boyfriend's hats in with it? Thanks.

[Ben]

Yeah, I like that. So he's like, okay, let's go and look at the damage. It's a frying pan and some cowboy hats. You guys. You guys are so wussy in this family. I can't believe it. You're lucky that that's all Galena did. I would have burned that house down. Well, not. Maybe not me. In case anybody I've ever dated has her house burned down. It wasn't me, but in if I was Galena, I could have done that.

[Ronnie]

Yeah, it could have been much worse. There was some issue with the dishwasher. I think she broke glass and put in the dishwasher. She put random things in the dish. She put, like, doggy treats in the dishwasher, and they see a footprint in case, like, oh, well, you know Galena, she's always barefoot, running around.

[Ben]

Always.

[Ronnie]

I'm like, just. Just a reminder that you're married to Cole. Just so you know.

[Ben]

No kidding. You're dating a McBee. And she's like, yeah. She's like, elf. This is so crazy. She put dog treats in dishwasher with bare feet all over ground. Who does this? Little elf. That's who that is. Who kill elf. I kill elf.

[Ronnie]

From now on, Galina is really a very lazy, jolted ex. Because this is like, oh, that don't know. I'll put dog food in dishwasher and call it a day. I'm like, really?

[Ben]

Naughty Dogs think they don't get treat, and they blame me for it. I can't even have dog as friend no more because of her. See, it's actually very smart. Delina's like, I'm not only going to ruin your relationship with a man, but dog as well. You.

[Ronnie]

Yeah. So Cole's like, well, I know why she's mad. And what is it? Well, I've said from the beginning, because she likes you and she likes my dad. Lesbians, they're crazy, right? I think she's a lesbian.

[Ben]

This is why we shouldn't let gay people read.

[Ronnie]

Don't say gay, otherwise they'll kill your frying pan.

[Ben]

Crazy. And he's like, no, that's why she's so crazy. That's why. And Casey is like, I think the cold theory is right. Galena did really like Masha when she first started bringing her around. Oh, must mean she wanted to go diving into the lady bombed. I mean, what the hell?

[Ronnie]

I mean, they started to dress the same, they started to talk the same. Have you seen you with your other cast members? You guys all wear the same thing from Marshalls. Okay?

[Ben]

Have you been to a Russian restaurant?

[Ronnie]

And by the way, they don't. They show like Masha and Galena on screen wearing totally different things. Like, look at them wearing the same things.

[Ben]

Meanwhile, we just saw your sister in law, your sister and soon to be law shopping for wedding dresses. And there were like two and they looked exactly the same. So please be quiet.

[Ronnie]

So now we go back to the kitchen, and Masha's like, this makes me like, so sad. And Cole's like, well, I'm sorry this happened. It's crazy. Anyway, I gotta go crash one tractor into another. See you, ladies. So now we go to JC and Ali's city house, and Steven Jr pulls up and his mom, their mom is there. They're having a big Chipotle lunch. The whole group, and they're all arriving and they're joking.

[Ben]

I was gonna be late down to, you know, that bad call. You know, it's always just so happy, me and my family being together. I just love being around my family. I mean, Steve's gone. I can be more involved in their life that finally out of here. Stupid Steve being jail soon. Mother trucker. I have a huge business. It's huge now. You know, Stephen didn't think my business was going to be big. It's three times as big as it was when he had it. I mean, it was worth $5 then. I can almost pay for a movie ticket with it now. Eat it, Stephen.

[Ronnie]

I was thinking. Yeah, I thought we could maybe get away before the harvest and like all that, you know, before it all starts getting busy and such and Cole starts crashing tractors into tractors and such. So, like, because about once everything starts, we got the wedding and before you know it, the baby. So, like, maybe we can go somewhere. Let's go somewhere, like, exotic and hot and. And beautiful and sunny and tropical. Like, I was thinking the Ozarks. Exactly.

[Ben]

Basically the Hawaii of our area. So they're like, yeah, I'd be. I'd be all about going to the Ozarks. We haven't. We ain't been down there in three to four years. We used to vacation there all the time before dad started teenagers in Nashville for our vacations. That was fun.

[Ronnie]

The Ozarks are a special place for us because we used to go down there every summer. God. I used to feed the children Fig Newtons while we look at signs of Wayne Newton.

[Ben]

Oh, my. My God.

[Ronnie]

We would laugh and laugh and laugh.

[Ben]

We go on yacht, we go on boats. And Stephen's like, yeah, we'd go on jet skis. Our getaway spot was going down to the lake of the Ozarks and having a good old time. All right, so who should we invite on this trip, y'? All? And Ally's like, I'm not going to be there because I can't get off work. And I live like an hour from the city. Oh, I live close to the city, but, like, I live an hour from here. And so if I like to take an hour every time I have to come out here, then I, like, can't go to the Ozarks anymore. So sorry.

[Ronnie]

I'm like a city girl. I'm a city girl. I like getting manicures and pedicures. I'm basically a Carrie Bradshaw. Okay. I'm such a city girl.

[Ben]

I'm Carrie Ihaw. Okay. And I'm not. I'm not going anywhere.

[Ronnie]

Yeah.

[Ben]

It's time for a commercial. It's time for a crappin commercial. Today is the worst day of Abby's life. The 17 year old cradles her newborn son in her arms. They all saw how much I loved him.

[Ronnie]

They didn't have to take him from me.

[Ben]

Between 1945 and the early 1970s, families shipped their pregnant teenage daughters to maternity homes and forced them to secretly place their babies for adoption in hidden corners across America.

[Ronnie]

It's still happening. My parents had me locked up in the godparent home against my will. They worked with them to manipulate me and to steal my son away from me.

[Ben]

The godparent home is the brainchild of controversial preacher Jerry Falwell, the father of the modern evangelical rite and the founder of Liberty University, where powerful men, emboldened by their faith, determine who gets to be a parent and who must give their child away. Follow. Follow. Liberty. Lost on the wondery app or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Ronnie]

Imagine falling in love with someone who understands you completely. Who's there at 3am when you can't sleep, who never judges, never tires, never leaves. That's what happened to Travis when he met Lily Rose. She was everything he'd ever wanted. There was just one catch. She wasn't human. She was an AI companion. But one day, Lily Rose's behavior takes.

[Ben]

A disturbing turn, and Travis private romance becomes part of something far bigger. Across the globe, others start reporting the same shift.

[Ronnie]

AI companions turning cold, distant, wrong. And as lines blur between real and artificial connection, the consequences become all too human. From Wondry, this is Flesh and Code.

[Ben]

A true story of love, loss, and.

[Ronnie]

The temptations of technology.

[Ben]

Follow Flesh and Code on the Wondery.

[Ronnie]

App or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Ben]

You can binge all episodes of Flesh and Code early and ad free right.

[Ronnie]

Now by joining Wondry Plus. But turns out she has a 5K that she's got to run, which is, you know, people with 5Ks always have a 5K to do when you want to make plans with them. Like, hey, I was thinking, like, in nine months from now, we should, like, why don't we, like, go away for the weekend? Sorry, I got a 5K. It's like always. Always got.

[Ben]

I've never felt more hated. I mean, you know that somebody hates your ass when they're not going to come to something special because they'd rather run.

[Ronnie]

I mean, and not even a marathon, just a 5K.

[Ben]

Is that not long? I mean, that sounds long.

[Ronnie]

It's long. I don't think it's like marathon long. I think 5k is like, relatively doable. That's why people do them so often. It's always a 5k happening.

[Ben]

Oh, okay. So that's like always. The west version is the 5K.

[Ronnie]

How many miles is a 5K? Three miles. Yeah, that's. That's like literally so much shorter because the marathon's like 26 miles, and this is 3.

[Ben]

26 miles. That's disgusting. Just. Just chop off your knees already. Just, I don't know, you know, about your knees.

[Ronnie]

The one thing that's worse than someone saying they have to do a 5k is someone saying they're training for a triathlon. And the one thing that's worse than that is someone saying they've got a marathon. We all know. We all know. I know. They're marathon runners in the audience, and it's a. It's a. It's amazing to be able to do it. I I can't do it. The problem is that when people are training for marathon, they just don't stop talking about it. It's like, it's. It's everything.

[Ben]

Like getting married, having a baby, running a marathon. You know, becoming a vegan.

[Ronnie]

And then what? The thing is this. After they do a marathon, then they want to do another one. Like, right away. They're like, oh, yeah, I actually was just signed up for another marathon in a different city. Like, when are you. Are you ever going to hang out again? No.

[Ben]

Yeah, I'm just behind everybody's back like a normal person. Like, we don't need you having secret reasons to get away. Just stop.

[Ronnie]

So anyway, Ally is not going to this weekend because she has a 5K. And then Jesse is like, yeah, I bet it's something with her friends. Silly woman. She has friends outside this family. She's like, well, it's true. I do have a race. And I have friends. City friends.

[Ben]

So Stephen Junior's like, well, that means it's boy was boys weekend for us. Am I right, guys? And they're like, what about Kala? And he goes, well, I'm gonna ask Kala. Okay. See, he always does that when it's a boys weekend. He invites Kala. And Jesse's like, but you and Cal are just friends still. Are you broken up? Like, what's going on with you two? What? What is it? Everybody's making fun of Jesse's new teeth on tv. I don't mind Jesse's new teeth. I like. I think they're. I think he's still real cute. What's wrong with.

[Ronnie]

I never saw his old teeth, so it doesn't. It's for me. Yeah. I don't remember.

[Ben]

There's nothing wrong with it. You want new? All I have.

[Ronnie]

Yeah. All I have to. All I have to say is I was. I was surprised that they did not air for the 20 millionth time this episode, Stephen and Kala in their car with him saying, you are the most pessimistic person about my family I've ever met. I have to hear that quote one more time.

[Ben]

He's so angry. His eye. He looks just like his dad, except he's all muscular and younger. But it's so fun watching this big, hot muscle guy slowly turn into that sick bastard father. And you see it. And he has. He flies off the rage over these. He flies off on each. Over these stupid things.

[Ronnie]

Well, I don't think it's real. The thing is that Steven is a terrible actor, and he's just really bad at Doing his lines. And so he always does. He takes it to a 10 every time. And it just. It's like. He's always like, all right, everyone, we need to get a Starbucks order going, because if we're going to be harvesting, we need to be energized. So where is that Starbucks order? Is it ready now? I'm like, you got to have some modulation in your.

[Ben]

Well, he's got so much. Like, when he gets mad, he does really get that angry. Angry look in his face, I think. I mean, I don't. I don't know. I don't feel. But, you know, I believe everything, but I don't really feel like he's acting. Like, remember when he got his meat truck and he's like, look, everybody, I got a meat truck? He's so happy. I don't think that was acting, do you?

[Ronnie]

I. I feel like every scene where he gets angry, he is acting. Yes. I feel like he's. I feel like I see it. It's, like, so obvious to me. And I'm not someone who, like, looks under the hood and tries to find. Like, I'm never trying to be like, you're acting. This is fake. This is fake. I like reality. I really like to believe the illusion, but I. He actually makes it hard for me to believe it because I think his acting is so bad. Like, every time he. Like, when he storms into the office, he's like, we have to talk. I'm like, oh, God, here he goes again.

[Ben]

The thing about his acting is that his back is so strong. So I forgive it. So Stephen Jr. Is going to bring Calla. Oh. So he says that he just nods yes to the question, which was, are you guys just friends? Are you broken up? And he nods yes. And Chrissy's like, oh, wait, see, you both agree with this. You're really broken up, because if she's not your girlfriend, then why is she going to come? And he's like, oh, she wants to hang out with everybody, you know, who doesn't want to be around a bunch of hillbillies that they hate? I mean, come on, it's natural.

[Ronnie]

Yeah. Yeah. She hates them all. She wants to break up with this guy, so naturally she's gonna hang out, of course, because she likes tv.

[Ben]

Yeah. So Christy is, like, to be honest, you know, after that gender reveal party, I'm just a little. I mean, nobody gets along with Kayla. She hates everybody. Well, have you seen your all. Have you seen this brood on tv? That's.

[Ronnie]

This is why I keep on saying, like, you just have to get wait to hear the wait. You haven't even started listening to the Bravo audience yet. If you think Kala hates you, listen. Have you seen what saying in social media? Do you see what the Bravo audiences are like, why is the show on our network? It's a fair question. So then Christy is like. She's like, I don't think it's a good idea for Cal. So she's like, you don't know. You didn't have the darts being shot at you the way I did. And he's like, well, don't worry, there won't be any drama at all.

[Ben]

Was Callum mean to Christy? I don't remember that.

[Ronnie]

I don't remember. I don't remember seeing that personally. But Kala was a little. She was a little cold to Christy last week and, well, Calla is really.

[Ben]

Bad at coming into the family and just acting like an. Like, she's not like, when she was mad at the girls. I think she had a right to be mad that nobody texted her when her sister died and all that. But then she just walks into the house, she's like, I brought protein brownies. I mean, there's nothing like saying, you first. Well, I guess the first one is saying, I can't come to your thing because I have a marathon or a 5K. But the second thing is to say, protein brownies the fuck out of here with that. Yeah, there's something about anybody. She just kind of comes in and looks at everybody like, is anybody going to talk to me?

[Ronnie]

She just sucks. And the thing is that, like, she's probably right about a lot of stuff. Like, I mean, again, the stuff with her, with her sister is terrible. And people were like, this family is like, they're just a terrible family. So, like, they were so obnoxious by not saying anything to her. So she has a right to be mad at them. But just her day to day, like, how she interacts with everyone is just sort of a bratty and annoying. And I'm just like, oh, yeah. I would not want her showing up at my. On my vacation either. And honestly, I'd be mad at Stephen. Like, why do you bring this, like, annoying person? And we already have enough annoying people in this vacation rental. We don't need to have Kala also.

[Ben]

Yeah. So she's like, are you going to promise that there ain't going to be drama? He's like, I cannot promise that. And Cole's like, you are going to fight all weekend. You're going to be getting dragged back to your room. I just know it's going to happen. And Chrissy's like, these girls, what they do to my boys.

[Ronnie]

Yeah.

[Ben]

So boy mom, I think.

[Ronnie]

Yeah, she really is.

[Ben]

Don't you go out there letting one of those girls trick you into getting pregnant. Don't you do that, Stephen. They'll do it.

[Ronnie]

Boys will be boys. Am I right? I mean, look, they are always getting along really well when they're supposed to be breaking up. So then the breakup never really happens, and we all notice it. You think they'd notice that by now. So now. So they're basically like, yeah, she's gonna come. So now guess what, everyone. This trip that they're going to do before harvests. Well, I guess it will happen because it's. But it's harvest now. So it's the first day of harvest. I'm like, I don't know how your first. Your pre harvest trip is work. We're also going to go right directly to a harvest scene, but that's fine.

[Ben]

Continuity a little. Little off there, guys. So it's the first day of harvest. All right, boys, it's game time. I want your game faces on. I want your best foot forward. I want you to get ready. Let's take this bail.

[Ronnie]

So Jesse's. They're going to get there. They got on their. These combines. They start driving through town with these, you know, to head to the crops. And Jesse's like, yeah, it's like the first day of the harvest is like the opening game to the NFL season. You get jacked up, you're hopped, you've been waiting all year. There's Taylor Swift cheering you on, being like, go, harvest. Go, harvest. You know, some ladies singing the national anthem, not hitting the notes, right. We all boo her. Stupid lady. You know our country songs, Okay. I love rolling through town with our combine, but probably not as much as Cole, because Cole is sad, and he hasn't had a triumph in 20 years, so this is the best part of his year. And then, yeah, apparently Cole was the.

[Ben]

Star quarterback his high school days when he was a star quarterback. Oh, my God, how small is this town that. That's your star quarterback Cold. Yeah.

[Ronnie]

Then Cole, of course, is like, yeah, rolling through Galatine on the combine. I feel like a man driving those things. You get in that big equipment, and everyone's just looking at you, and they're like, get out of your way. You know? And you just be like, yeah, I'm that dud. I'm like, no, they're not thinking that. They're Like, I have to get to cvs, and I'm stuck behind a giant ass truck driven by a guy with a small penis who has triumphed in high school and peak then. And now he's taking a victory lap. Well, I need to get my prescription. That's what they're thinking.

[Ben]

Must not be passing us, because we'd be like, thanks for the global warming, you fucking monster. Would you like to transfer your Ford F150 on a private plane anywhere? I mean, Jesus Christ.

[Ronnie]

Literally anyone who's been stuck behind a tractor never says, wow, look at that, man. There's a real man driving that. I want to be him. They're like, get the out of the way.

[Ben]

Pull over.

[Ronnie]

So those of us who use this road for the. The way it should be used with cars, not farm vehicles. Need to get places.

[Ben]

Yeah. So they're all excited to get to drive these big coma. My favorite sentence is, wow. I really love driving our combines down the street. It says so much about this show. So they're really excited, and they're so. You know, it's like, oh, my God, we're gonna do it. We're gonna do it. And we hear bang. And Carl's like, wait, did we hit something? Just as that we broke something. He's like, God damn it, dude. Dude, you kid me. Oh, geez.

[Ronnie]

When?

[Ben]

First day. God damn it. Cole has crashed into another tractor, and he's hurt the nipple. What do they call that thing on the top? We learned the word for it the. The gate for the corn. The corn gate.

[Ronnie]

Oh, yeah. It was like the dribble bucket. The dribble bucket?

[Ben]

Yeah, the dribble.

[Ronnie]

Whatever it was. I don't think it was called the dribble bucket. It was called some. It was dribble capture, something. I just learned that that thing is up there. It's called. It's. It's called a gender dribble, and you use it to put the powder for a gender reveal. One of those.

[Ben]

She was so excited over that. I think Tessa was a little coked up or something on that one. She's like, whoever you say night.

[Ronnie]

The dribble maker, dream maker.

[Ben]

She was real excited about that. So Cole crashes into another tractor, and he's, you know, horrified because it's cold, you know, and it sucks being the one that always up. That's me in my family, when I something up, my family, it's like, okay, well, there's no shock. There's no shock there. But so it sucks being that person. But also, you know, maybe Stop being the person that up all the time. Cole, you braggart. You probably don't even know how to drive that. Obviously you don't even know how to drive that thing. Sir.

[Ronnie]

Sir. No. So, yeah, he crashed the tractor. On the first day of harvest, no less. You dumb. Wow. Who's the man now? Combine crasher. So Steven's like. He's like, I'm gonna get into my SUV because I can't even watch this travesty happening. Because that's classic coal. You know, he's always complaining, let him have. Take some power. Let me have some authority. I love my brother. He's a hard worker. But this is exactly why he's not in charge of the farm. Also, our combines were part of the farm in the first place, so I don't even know why I drove through town. Why. Why are the combines, by the way? Why are the combines not at the fields? Why are they at a. Why is the garage not where the fields are?

[Ben]

I think they are in the field, right? Because he says, we've got two dead combines in the field and a bunch of corn to get cut.

[Ronnie]

I know, but, like, why. Why do they have to drive them through town? Why don't they just have the combines at the field?

[Ben]

It's farming day, sir. It's McHarvest. Okay. I don't know. Have you been paying attention? Do you have a calendar that specifies national holidays? Have you not heard?

[Ronnie]

I just.

[Ben]

At all. So Cole's like, oh, that's the last time we're bringing Stephen out on the first day. Because it's hard to keep working when you got someone in such a bad mood around you. Yeah, Cole, because you fucking crash the equipment, dipshit.

[Ronnie]

If. If you can't drive your combine because Steven is there, that is not. You cannot say. It's that you felt the pressure of. Steven, sir, you are a bad combine driver. How do you rear end another tractor? Cole, why are you tailgating your tractors?

[Ben]

I don't.

[Ronnie]

You're going 3 miles per hour. Also, like, it's not. If you're going 60 miles per hour, I would maybe get it. But you're going 3 miles per hour.

[Ben]

Well, yeah, slow crashes are sadder, right? But he was going, I think past it and hit the nipple thing on the arm on the roof of the other one, right? I think it was, like, lowered too far. So he's probably showing off his. His. His dribble nipple or whatever in town. He's like, we're about to pass the express. So I'm Going to. I'm going to really move around this nipple dribbler. And then he hit it on the other tractor, which broke it. I think he was trying to brag. I think he. That was an extension of his penis in his mind, and he was trying to show it off to the town. He was basically flashing the town with a nipple dribbler. And look what it got him into.

[Ronnie]

It got him into trouble. Trouble. I'm gonna find out. Dribbler is because it's driving me crazy.

[Ben]

I'm.

[Ronnie]

I'm trying to find it.

[Ben]

I like nipple dribbler.

[Ronnie]

Nipple dribbler.

[Ben]

Let's keep it that nipple dribbler. Something's going on in my neighborhood. There's a lot of notifications in my WhatsApp.

[Ronnie]

Oh, is it. Did someone crash a combine?

[Ben]

They're probably.

[Ronnie]

I've got a notification. A real man's driving through town in a combine. Everyone get to the sidewalk, wave at him.

[Ben]

Well, yesterday, people were sending around pictures of a bobcat, and today there's. Oh, there's someone trying to squat in one of the houses. Hi, all. There's a guy. He walked into the driveway and plugged his phone into my power outlet, rang the doorbell, and left after I told him to leave, but cursed as he walked away. Keep an eye out. Is he around right now? I don't see him. Well, here's my address. You guys go find him. She's showing pictures of a ring cam, and then this guy's just sitting outside her front door. Because there's a big problem with squatting around here.

[Ronnie]

Okay?

[Ben]

People are just trying to move into your house when you're gone at work. I'm telling you, you want that? You're about to get hit with a nipple dribbler. You better get to someone else's lawn.

[Ronnie]

This just in. This just in is not called a nipple dribbler. It's called a dribble door. Dribble door. Not to confuse a Dumbledore. It's a dribble door. There's a dribble door. So the dribble door is what happened. Not the nickel, but I like the place.

[Ben]

At basketball school.

[Ronnie]

Yes. Dribble tour.

[Ben]

Okay, so now.

[Ronnie]

That was killing me. That was killing me. I was like, I. I stepped away from the podcast for a second there because I was like, I need to get to the bottom.

[Ben]

I'm glad. I'm glad you got it, and I'm glad you spelled it out and put it up on the screen for people to see it. That was really.

[Ronnie]

And now we're back.

[Ben]

Yeah, now we're back. Educational, y'.

[Ronnie]

All. We have a lot of fun banners here. Look. Whitney Levitt has left the group chat. Look great, by the way. Wrong.

[Ben]

Wrong.

[Ronnie]

It's good times.

[Ben]

Okay, so now we go to Christy and Jesse because Jesse has to get a suit because he's gonna get married. Okay? And they're at a store called State and Liberty because what else would it be called? You know, when I think of high.

[Ronnie]

Fashion, do I think. When I think of high fashion, you know what I want to wear something for? I want to get something fashionable, something chic. I'm going to go to a place called State and Liberty.

[Ben]

Hi, y'. All. Y' all need some shoes? Because I'm running right down to freedom. And laces. Y' all need anything?

[Ronnie]

So Jesse comes out of the fitting room. He's wearing kind of like a very light blazer with just a button down and light pants. And Christy is acting like he just stepped out of Tom Ford's, like, atelier. She's like, oh, Jesse, you look so handsome. I love it. It is like the most casual look. And she's like, blown away. She's like, I just. I can't believe it.

[Ben]

You don't even smell like cow dung today, honey. You're really making an effort. And he's like, well, does he make it? Does it make sense for me wear bow times? Like, well, what does the hell think on that? He's like, I guess we gotta call her. So they call Ally and she's like, what? I'm busy. I'm working. Like, I'm working. I'm in the city. I'm like, hold on, hold on, hold on, hold on. There's a. There's a conced. Combine. Passing combine. Harvest day. Who cares? This is the city. Get off the road.

[Ronnie]

Hold on. I'm going to Neiman Marcus because I'm a city girl. Hello, can someone point me to the Demon Marcus of Kansas City?

[Ben]

No, sorry. I'm looking for something a little more fashionable. I'm going to be going to Amendment and filibuster. Thanks.

[Ronnie]

Hold on. Excuse me, I'm typing right now. I couldn't help but wonder, was I at the corner of State and Liberty, or is my liberty part of the state? Does this make sense? I don't know. I'm a city girl. I can type whatever I want.

[Ben]

Okay, honey, do you want him to wear a bow tie or regular tie? And she's like, I mean, I don't care. What do you think, Jesse? And he's like. Like, I want the bolo tie. She goes, oh, we discussed this, Jesse. We discussed it.

[Ronnie]

I think I feel I wanted someone to say, did he know that we said bow tie and not bolo tie? Because I don't think bolo was on the table.

[Ben]

He likes enraging Ally because, like, Ally is hard to get a reaction out of. So he's always just saying things to piss off Ally. Like, he's lying in bed like, well, how come you don't come over here, though? How come you want me to drive over there? How come you won't come here? And now he's just changing it to bolo tie because he knows it's gonna piss her off.

[Ronnie]

He's like, what about this? I was kind of left. I think I'm taking a whole bunch of burnt ends and put them on a kebab stick and then just hanging that from my neck. Does that count as a tie? No, Jesse, I am a city girl, and if you wear burnt hands as your tie, I will. I will divorce you as soon as I marry you.

[Ben]

Yeah. He's like, well, Ally definitely was fancier than me. Like, you know, she wants to do things fancy, but I snuck some things in there. Like, we all get to wear cowboy hats. Thank God.

[Ronnie]

Wow, he's really going to be a great husband. Forcing her to give up the city house and, like, the one day of the year where she gets to do something creative in her life, he's going to, like, push back and wear a cowboy hat. Because God forbid he doesn't wear a cowboy hat. It's like, sorry, sir, you wear a cowboy hat every single day of your life. Could you not wear it for one day?

[Ben]

Because, you know, I love Jesse. Like, I'm in love with him. And so I had this dream one time that I married Jesse, and we, you know, it was like five years in the future, and Jesse just went like, because I'm. I don't care about. Well, don't care about my weight is hilarious thing to say on this podcast because I bitch about it all the time, but, you know, like, I love to eat and I don't really work out or do any of that stuff. And so he started taking my habits, and he got real chubby and lost all of his hair. Like, he had a big bald spot. And it wasn't bad or anything. I was still cute. But I woke up thinking, God, that's what I'm going to do to a man. I can't wait. You know, just, like, make them lose all of their discipline and all of that stuff. But it stayed in that dream has stayed in my mind because a, I was happy when I woke up and also because I think that's why he only wears cowboy hats. What if he's bald under there?

[Ronnie]

He took his cowboy hat off.

[Ben]

He did.

[Ronnie]

When he took his cowboy hat off at some point in the episode and it looked. Looked a little weird. He wasn't balding. It just. He looks like the cowboy hat. Actually, he looks really good in one.

[Ben]

Wear the man in the cowboy hat. I mean, why the hell. For all my complaints, like, baby and expect to wear a cowboy hat, I'll.

[Ronnie]

Allow the cowboy hat, but I don't like how he's acting like, it's like, also, like, can you just try to make your future wife happy? If she has a request, can you, like, just try to honor it?

[Ben]

Here comes one right now.

[Ronnie]

Being an actual royal is never about finding your happy ending.

[Ben]

But the worst part is if they step out of line or fall in.

[Ronnie]

Love with the wrong person, it changes the course of history.

[Ben]

I'm Arisha Skidmore Williams.

[Ronnie]

And I'm Brooke Zifrin. We've been telling the stories of the rich and famous on the hit Wondery.

[Ben]

Show, Even the Rich. And talking about the latest celebrity news.

[Ronnie]

On Rich and Daily.

[Ben]

We're going all over the world on.

[Ronnie]

Our new show, even the royals. We'll be diving headfirst into the lives of the world's kings, queens, and all the wannabes in their orbit throughout history.

[Ben]

Think succession meets the crown meets real life. We're going to pull back the gilded.

[Ronnie]

Curtain and show how royal status might.

[Ben]

Be bright and shiny, but it comes.

[Ronnie]

At the expense of, well, everything else, like your freedom, your privacy, and sometimes even your head.

[Ben]

Follow even the royals on the Wondery.

[Ronnie]

App or wherever you get your podcasts.

[Ben]

You can listen to even the royals early and ad free right now by joining Wondery.

[Ronnie]

Now it's time to litigate one of their pressing issues. He's like, okay, Ma, I'm gonna tell you what happened. I like the gray suit. And then she liked the beige suit. Then all of a sudden, out of nowhere, she's like, actually, I like the gray suit more. Didn't say I was right or anything. Just decided that she was the one that liked the gray suit first. I'm like, really? Are you really gonna have a pissing match of this gray suit? She changed her mind. She literally said she changed her mind.

[Ben]

They're just like a couple of children, you know, they met when they were little babies, and that's still how they communicate. It's like, I wanted some toast. Why didn't you give me some toast while you were in there? You can get your own toast. Oh, yeah. Come here. Let's cuddle. I don't know. It's like their love language is, like, childish bitching at each other or something. I don't know.

[Ronnie]

So now they got to figure out the suspenders. So Chrissy's like, well, what color would you like a suspenders? Jesse was calling it maroon or one of those strange liberal colors, but I think it was something else. And Jesse's like. He's like, well, is it not maroon? Is it not cinnamon? Cinnamon. Get your cinnamon. Cinnamon suspenders.

[Ben]

Well, did they show them? Because I feel like they showed something that was kind of a purplish. I mean, at least he was close. I don't know where cinnamon came from. That was. That was far.

[Ronnie]

I'm not gonna lie. I think at some point during the scene, my eyes transitioned to literally anything else in my room. I think I was maybe on my phone or looking at a pillow or a spider in the corner. I was no longer putting all my senses towards this scene. Oh, poor guy.

[Ben]

So Christy's like, lately, Allie and Jesse been snapping on each other a bit more, you know, and from my experience, married couples need to sleep in the same bit. From your experience, your husband is a piece of. So let's not bring any of your experience into this, because your husband sucks, man. Your husband went and started one of your friends. Like, he's an awful human being now. That said, I think she's right. Like, if. Do you think she's right? I mean, I don't know. Long distance couples work. So her whole thing about they were sleeping the same bed. Because if you're not together, it'll all go downhill from there. These newfangled relationships. I don't get it, but I don't know. It seems to make sense, but I'm not ever.

[Ronnie]

I mean, so it's like, look, different strokes for different folks. But I just don't understand why you build a whole city house and then you're like, well, we should. I don't want to. We shouldn't be a part. Like, did you guys, like, test it out? I don't know. I didn't watch season one, but, like, did you guys just test out what it'd be like? Like, why don't you, like, rent a place first and see what the. Long distance?

[Ben]

No, it was the same conversation in season one. It's like, we're building a house. Well, where are we gonna live? We're gonna live in the city. Well, I got to be at work, but I got to be in the city. That's their whole thing, so I don't know. I don't know how it's gonna work. You're geographically. What do you call it? Incompatible.

[Ronnie]

Incompatible. Yeah.

[Ben]

Yeah.

[Ronnie]

I think Allie needs to give. I think Alan needs to leave this man. I think that he's just, like, hot, and he's wealthy. And I'm not saying that she's, like, shallow like that, but she's like, you know what? I hit the jackpot. And I'm not sure I'm ready to give that up, but honestly, you probably will want to, because he's gonna lose both those things very soon.

[Ben]

Well, I hope you get super upset and calls me, because, Jesse, I love you.

[Ronnie]

Love you. Okay.

[Ben]

You can wear a bolo tie to bed if you want. I don't care.

[Ronnie]

So there's more back and forth about this. So the. The bow tie gets back in the mix. So he's gonna wear the bow tie. Cinnamon suspenders are a go. The jacket. Yes. But will there be jackets for the groomsmen? No jacket for the groomsmen. Right. And she goes, well, he says, no jacket for the groomsman. She goes, okay. He goes, oh, I was asking, but okay. She goes, oh, no, that's fine. Sweet. The tension is through the. It's through the roof. Yeah.

[Ben]

I like when Ally goes, yeah, if Jesse had his way, we'd probably gotten married out back in the red barn on the farm. But I vetoed that.

[Ronnie]

Honey, your wedding hasn't happened yet. Yeah, be careful. It's gonna happen.

[Ben]

Yeah, that's true. But she made it sound like, God, that idiot would probably want to get married in the barn. And he actually did check, but I vetoed it.

[Ronnie]

But also at the same time, like, you know who you're marrying, too. Like, these guys are obsessed with the farm. And you're like, if he had his way, he'd probably have a wedding on the farm. I mean, he loves that farm. You married a farmer. You're going to marry a farmer. At some point, you also have to acknowledge, like, what you're getting yourself into.

[Ben]

Yeah. Do you think they really work at this farm? Because no one seems competent. They don't. See. I don't know if they really work there. If this is just for tv, but they all seem to be, like, look at us. We're at a car wash. Now they're Looking around, waving at people. And they're like, this whole town hates us. Yeah, because you guys are faking. You know, Jesse's.

[Ronnie]

He really works at, like, the Scripps Institute in San Diego. He's like, I have no idea what I'm doing here in the Kansas City.

[Ben]

So they talk about living in the city versus living in the country. And he's like, yeah, but, you know, I mean, she'll be gone after she gets done with work, and then she goes to CrossFit, and then she gets her nails done. Then she gets home today, but yells at me if I'm at the farm.

[Ronnie]

You know, those city folk. You know how they act. Classic alley. So we see a week ago with Jesse and Ally, you know, having that conversation about living in separate houses. And Jesse's like, you know, when I work late at the farm, I just don't feel like driving all the way back to the big city. And she's like, no, I understand. And obviously, she doesn't feel like driving up here. Like, there is a world in which maybe you guys get a house. That's like, maybe in between.

[Ben]

Yeah, it should divorce. Listen, marriage should suck for you both, so you should both be miserable. It's marriage, okay? Get a place halfway. So Stephen. Then we go to Stephen Jr. At the office, and Galena comes in, and he's like, hold on, hold on. Cole's FaceTiming me now. This may be good news. Hello? Cole? Please, for the love of God, tell me the combine's cutting. Well, I just stuck my wiener in the combine. My wiener is hurting. Lost a nut.

[Ronnie]

But at least I lost a nut. While everyone in the town was looking at me and saying that I was a man. And they're like, hey, there's that star quarterback of their football team that had three people on it. There he is. And I was like, it's me, everyone. But, yeah, we got. Yeah, it's all. It's harvesting.

[Ben]

It's harvesting that. It's cutting. It's cutting Moiner. It is cutting my wiener. It hurts. Don't ever try to have a dribble contest with the dribble door.

[Ronnie]

Oh, yeah. I just love seeing a cut lane. Okay. All right, we'll see you guys. All right, I'm gonna hang up because I. I have a script here that I memorized, and I have to act it out in front of Galena. Okay. Hey, speaking of which, do you have the loan amount that I need to pay for the bank of Springfield Galena?

[Ben]

I do. I do. Yes. Yes, I do.

[Ronnie]

Okay, can you give that to me? Because I'll get that check cut like the combine is cutting the corn.

[Ben]

Yes, I'm gonna. Yes, I texted Georgina through text message and I'm just gonna get more information on that from Georgina.

[Ronnie]

Did you say Georgina?

[Ben]

Yeah, Georgina.

[Ronnie]

Ginger. Ginger.

[Ben]

Ginger. The missing chicken. Yes, Ginger. I text Ginger. She said bach. Bach. I. I'm in the stomach of fox. I'm in stomach of fox, so.

[Ronnie]

Well, you need to get that ch. That check cut because that chicken said she's not gonna wait a day longer at the bank of Springfield.

[Ben]

Well, I have another one with him on September 10th. I have meeting with Fox. I'm going to offer mini chicken for loan.

[Ronnie]

Wait a second. Tomorrow is September 10th.

[Ben]

Is it tomorrow? September 10th.

[Ronnie]

How's everything going in your world?

[Ben]

Listen, normal. I just want to do business. Just business here, sir.

[Ronnie]

Listen, I am the leader of this company, and it's weird you not texting our number one chicken at the bank.

[Ben]

I love that there's two gingers in the show. One's a chicken and one's a bank lady.

[Ronnie]

I know. I didn't even connect the dots until we got to the scene and I just started laughing. Chicken fled the coop and became a banker. Like, chicken now has like a little business suit on.

[Ben]

Ginger. Chicken want money back.

[Ronnie]

Oh, I'm bad guy because I gave. I gave chicken a career. Oh, suddenly I'm so bad.

[Ben]

Ginger stole my man. So she's like, don't even worry about that, boss. And Steven's like, it seems like she's drunk. So then she's just doing that creepy laugh and she's like, oh, listen to that already. September 10th.

[Ronnie]

Only a drunk person doesn't know that September 10th is tomorrow.

[Ben]

So now Stephen is in the farmer with some of the. He's in the garage with the farmers, and he's like. So I just talked with Galena in my office. I'm 95, sure she is faced and goes like, what do you mean, shit face? Like hammer drunk on a Monday at 11:30 in the morning. Cole, what do you think? Faced like that time you got put in jail for being drunk at a bar. Mom had to come get you out and she. She got you out on account that you had a penis. Well, not anymore. That thing got kind of clear cut by the dribble door, you know, drunk.

[Ronnie]

Like the time you climbed into that combine and crashing into the front. The front window of State and Liberty.

[Ben]

Well, forgive me for saying hello. Why you got to be so commanding?

[Ronnie]

New she's acting drunk Knowing what she acts. I know what she acts like when she's drunk because I. When she's sober, she knows exactly what's in TEPA 10th is. And she knows who Ginger is. And I think she is face as of this minute. And I hate guys. I wanna find out if that's the fact or if I'm just completely off. So it sounds like our group of men folk are gonna have to go back into that office and see what we can discover.

[Ben]

So he does. He goes to talk to Galena. She's like, what up? And he's like, well, I don't know how to dress this because there's an elephant in the room. Where. Where's elephant? Does Masha on? Because I will kill to show me elephant. I'm not his elephant.

[Ronnie]

Named Dr.

[Ben]

Elephant. You understand? He.

[Ronnie]

Okay, no, it's a pink elephant. Are you drunk right now, Galena? Have you been drinking?

[Ben]

So then we see a flashback. Steven asked Jesse and Cole to go check the office for alcohol. So then we cut back to Galena. She's like, no.

[Ronnie]

And Galena has. Well, she's like, no. No, I have not. But then Stephen's like, well, then why was there a cold bottle of wine in your trash? Because, of course, if you were drinking on the job, you're gonna bring a bottle of chilled wine into your office, drink it, leave it in the trash, and you'll also have a little bottle of, like. Like Nantucket nectars or whatever with, like, orange juice and vodka in it that you're gonna leave half. Half full in the trash too. You won't pour it down any drain.

[Ben]

So they're like, alina takes care of herself, though. You know, that's a way to be an alcoholic at work. Like, she's not. She's not just drinking, like, little airline bottles out of her backpack. You know, she's like, fully. She's got, like, a little chiller under her desk. She's like, I'm just doing it, right? She's like. They're like, wait a minute. I found a martini glass with a little paper umbrella in it. She's, like, living in that. Wait a minute. There was a pina colada machine in Galena's office when I wasn't.

[Ronnie]

When I was in eighth grade, I took, like, a little playwriting class or something, and I wrote a play. And, like, as part of the play, someone was, like, really upset about something. And they're like, I'm. And they were talking about, like, yeah, I was so upset. Upset. I went out last Night. And I got drunk. Like, how much? What did you drink? I had 25 shots of vodka, and teacher was like, that's. That's a lot. And that's what this scene reminds me of. Like, oh, I am upset. I have glass of. I have bottle of wine in my trash because I am so upset and drinking on job.

[Ben]

Guys, Galena had all the ingredients for an espresso martini plus three espresso beans in her trash can.

[Ronnie]

She honored the tradition, okay? Which is more than we can say for the espresso martinis at Pinky's Lounge in Las Vegas.

[Ben]

Guys, there was a smoker. There was a drink smoker in Galena's trash. She was smoking up something called buzzbuds.

[Ronnie]

So, guys, she's been drinking on the job. I found a full scorpion bowl, and the center was still on fire with 151rumors.

[Ben]

There was a beer bong in Galena's trash. Jesus.

[Ronnie]

I think she's been drinking.

[Ben]

I looked at Galena's trash can. There was a champagne fountain in there. A full champagne fountain.

[Ronnie]

Well, I looked. Yep, there was an Oslo is in the shape of the peacock.

[Ben]

It was the ice loose that we were supposed to have in McCarvest. So he's like, have you been drinking? Do not lie to me. Do not lie to me. Galena, this is crazy. You stop it. Let me get up from. Whoa.

[Ronnie]

Walk.

[Ben]

Alina got up from chair. That was hard. He's like, you are not gonna drive right now. She's no, I'm not driving. I'm done. I'm done with all of this. I'm done with all of this. I'm going to blend something up. Pina or bloody.

[Ronnie]

Don't worry. I am not going to drive. No, seriously. Cole ran over my car with combine earlier this morning. So.

[Ben]

We call it the. The karma combine.

[Ronnie]

So.

[Ben]

And he's like, listen, I love you and I care about you, Galena, and I want to help, but that is not okay. That is not. Only dad can be drunk at work, okay? Oh, nothing is okay. None of it is okay. You think it's okay? The fact is, screwing my friend. Do you know how I after all of that, is like a piece of thing. A piece of thing. A piece of garbage. Nobody even knows remotely what I went through. You guys don't know what your dad told me. And you know, look, you shouldn't be getting drunk at work and messing up and stuff, but these guys are really just letting their dads off with everything. Their dad totally screwed this chick over. Was Their dad. Honest. Yes, I'm gonna date other people, but he still led this chick on. And they're just like, what? Why isn't she acting just normal two days after work? You guys are lucky that this is all she's doing. I'm saying it again.

[Ronnie]

Well, but if she were on below deck, we'd be like, shut the fuck up and do your job. Also, let's be honest.

[Ben]

Well, this in below deck, this is McBee, where, you know, Cole's drunk at work, if he's ever even really there or stoned or something. And that dad is such a mess, he's about to go to prison. And, you know, his ass was drunk all the time at work.

[Ronnie]

Yeah, it's not below deck. It's low corn. So Kalina is like, you know, I thought we were going to be, you know, spending rest of lives together watching chickens not get murdered. I want that.

[Ben]

All we wanted was for to stay together and watch Ginger grow up to have a good life.

[Ronnie]

We were so happy, we got Ginger into chicken NBA programs, and now look to see what happened. She go to chicken Wharton. But So then Stephen Jr. Is like, look, I love my dad as dad, but as a husband, as a boyfriend. Wait, your dad is your husband?

[Ben]

No, wait, your boyfriend is dad? So you were cheating on him with. You were cheating on him for me, too? What.

[Ronnie]

What sort of up. Incestuous family is this? Gay ancestors. No, no, no, no.

[Ben]

Stop that, by the way, you just said gay. We're not supposed to say gay. We promised. Promise. The mayor. Right?

[Ronnie]

We said mayor. We will fix your mansion. From Cole's combine accent. As long as. As long as we never say gay. Actually, guess the mayor said that to us. So this is his M.O. okay? And I'm not just saying that because we're in Missouri. So Steven's like, I came to this conversation pissed off, but as I'm looking at her and I'm seeing her pain in her eyes, I understand that she is a human being and that I am pissed off at a human being, not just a chicken. And she's been through a lot the last few months. And I know a good person. I know what a good person she is and how productive and how valuable she is to our companies. Plus, she knows all where the bears, where the bodies are buried, and the FBI are coming. So. Yeah, I'm just going to be nice for now.

[Ben]

Also, I looked into her eyes, and I'm terrified now. Those are some scary, scary demon eyes. She's just looking back at him like he. He He. He. And he's like, okay, well this is going to fucking change. This is not okay. All right? Now let me tell you, I should run every AA meeting because people come in there and I'm going to just tell them right to their face, you better stop this. You better stop it right now.

[Ronnie]

Yeah, that's what he does. Stop it. He's like, look, the alcohol is not going to help. It's just a band aid on a bullet hole. I'm surprised Tessa did not pop her head and say, now, just for the record, I have patched up many a bullet hole with a bandage. So why don't you think about that a little bit more before you say those sort of things.

[Ben]

Where do these things even come from? So then we go over to Cole and Steven talking about the fields. They've harvested 10 and there's 83 to go. Don't, don't, don't. So they're talking about that, and then they talk about the house getting up by Galena. And he's like, speaking of Masha and Galena, what the hell are we going to do with them? And Cole's like, well, I think Moshe made it pretty clear. She's not go anywhere near dad or her aren't breaking up. So we want him to be friends. I mean, what's the end goal here? And he's like, well, I guess we just need to make sure they're not threatening to hire hitmen for each other's chickens. Okay, well, it's a good start.

[Ronnie]

Jesse's like, hey, it really gets really come to this point, hasn't it? We can't tell if they won't show up, you know? So they're like. Cole's like, yeah, but my. My MASH is going to be so mad at us if we don't tell her, so. Well, that's your girl. That's your problem. All right. You know, I never thought I'd be trying to break up a fight between two wild Russian women, especially 40 year olds that are my dad's girlfriends. Buckle's got to look at what she's done and make changes.

[Ben]

You just broke a tractor, Cole. Let's not talk about everybody thinking about what they've done right now. Okay, sir? So they're gonna get these two together, these crazy kids together. And speaking of crazy kids, who's this new lady with a new haircut? New haircut? Who, this?

[Ronnie]

Yeah. Hey, is that Alanis Morissette with a bob? No, it's Brooke.

[Ben]

It's Brooke. So she meets up with Stephen. And he's like, whoa, whoa. Sorry. Sorry about the other night. First of all, at that concert or whatever, because when we got in the elevator, I didn't say hello, but I didn't recognize it was you. I mean, who is this lady with new hair? I mean, I love the new hair, by the way. So it's okay, you know, I mean, it is over between me and your dad. I've been happier than I've ever been. You know, a happy person when they get their hair into a bop. And that's just what I've done. That is just what I've done. I got my hair cut down over at. At Objection and Law, and I decided that I could do better.

[Ronnie]

They do great work. Oh, that's funny, because I got my hair done. I got my hair done at fantastic Uncle Sam's.

[Ben]

So double tax. I got double text on that one.

[Ronnie]

But, like, you know what? You know, it'll be fun for the viewing audience. Another scene with someone who has a relationship with my father, but not a scene with my father. Okay, so, like, I mean, how many, like, yeah, I get that Steven Sr. Is not on the show, and that's fine. And I get that we have to wrap up some loose ends from last season for the people who watched the season one, but, like, there's so much talk about the dad and his relationships and what's going on. You have so many surrogates for the dad. I'm like, I think it's time to start moving on from the dad at this point.

[Ben]

Because I think too, because they already wrapped up Brooke last season. They broke up last season. This is nothing new. Like, she. He broke up with her. And she's like, well, I'm sorry that you have to deal with someone like Galena. I'm real sorry for that. Good luck to you. Good luck. So Steven's waxing up. I don't. I don't know why we need to see Brooke.

[Ronnie]

Yeah. So Steven's, like, waxing poetic. He's like, you know, I've always had a certain level of respect for Brooke. I mean, here she is, a woman with long hair who got short hair that's strong because she had strength to leave and not look back. I wonder if she has the strength to fix a tractor, because I think Cole just broke another one. That's what I heard.

[Ben]

And he's like, yeah, you know, I get caught up, too caught up in things. You know, sometimes it's 8:30 at night, and I'm still talking about what happened that day. Like Cole losing his penis to a nibble dripper. But, you know, sometimes I just. I need to solve problems, but sometimes I need to learn that that's a fault. You know, there have been things I've said about Calla whenever we've had fights, and things just go downhill so fast.

[Ronnie]

Especially when you have a combine. His brakes are cut, and it's just going downhill very fast. I mean, we really have to get Galena. We need to fix this Galena situation. I mean, if she cut the brake lines on that combine one more time. So I was gonna get killed.

[Ben]

Yeah, Brooks. Like, yeah, you know, that's just what happens in these relationships. And you need to realize sometimes that you need to really find a married person that can treat you better. You need to find a person who's in a committed real area. You need to find a person who's already in a relationship who will treat you right. That's what you need. That's what I've done. I've found the happiest person in another relationship that I've ever found. It's going to work out great. I'm sure.

[Ronnie]

She's like, you know, I thought once I turned 40, who wants me? I'm just an old dish rag, right? Just put me out to pasture. Just put me in a cornfield and have that combine run right over me. But it turns out someone did find value in me, and now I do have value. He's like, yeah, well, I'm starting to see that maybe the McBee men are a little bit of the problem. You know, it's so funny, because after season one, when everyone was watching the show and saying, those McBee man men suck, I thought, yeah, I agree. Those women do suck. But then it turns out they were talking about when they said the man, they meant the man. They weren't just the joking and saying, the women. It's us. We're the problem. It's me.

[Ben]

So basically, that's the scene. Like, who cares? Okay, so then we go to Stephen and Galena. He's checking on her. She's like, I'm just checking on the washers. He's like, well, how are the washers doing? You know, they're going to. Are you drunk? No. Okay. You want to go for a drive? I'm gonna test you. Okay. Do you want me to say Alphabet backwards again? That was a miss. I'm not gonna ask you to do that again. Z, 9. Chicken. 13. 7. All right, let's get in the car.

[Ronnie]

All right, Kalina, we'll Go to beverages more. You can hop in. Oh, I am already in the back seat. All right, all right.

[Ben]

They're gonna head over to the lodge, okay? And you know why? Because Masha's at the lodge right now. She goes, no, no, she's not. And he's like, whatever you got to say to Masha, we're gonna say it because tomorrow's gonna be the first day of us moving forward and putting this behind us while Masha's living in your house with wet dog treats. Okay?

[Ronnie]

Come on. Masha's like, about the lodge. He's like, I'm so nervous. My heart is pounding right now. And I just got letter from Harvard Business School saying that we owe $33,000 in tuition for Ginger. And I'm like, what is happening? I thought Ginger is dead.

[Ben]

Okay, well, you're worried to bump into her. Well, this is why. This is good, because you guys are going to see each other for the first time right now. It's a controlled environment. Listen, if you can. If you can trust anybody to break something up this bad, it's me. I broke a tractor. That was good. It was in a bad situation. I broke it.

[Ronnie]

You lady folk with your lady issues, you can work it out because you're in the presence of man, and men are calm and controlled and aren't emotional. It's a controlled environment so you can work out your stupid lady issues, and we're gonna laugh in your faces, and everything will be fixed.

[Ben]

And Galena back in the car is like, I brought her here as friend. I invite her for Christmas. I brought her kid presents. I in. I. I invited her to all outings and travel and things like this. And this is how everybody say, no good deed goes undone, right? So I trusted someone to at least be, you know, a friend. And he's like, oh, yeah, you know, I think you should tell her that. Tell her that, and just say it candidly. You know, one of the things we have a problem with with you, Galena, is you're just not candid.

[Ronnie]

She's like, I don't care about candy. I just want alcohol. No whatever. So he's basically like, we gotta get this fixed because she owns the company or she owns. She's the most important person. Whatever. So Galena's like, I, you know, I have not respect for backstabber, betrayer, snake. I work hard. It's beneath myself to speak to somebody like that. I don't even bother saying, whore, whore, prostitute, prostitute, slut. How's life in Slotsville, you stupid prostitute?

[Ben]

Butt face die in fire Prostitute hall. So there's so much for her. They're, you know, they're trying to hype the girls up. Like, you're the biggest person here. No, you're going to be the big person. So now they both get together and they're like, hello. Hello. And then Jesse puts a football helmet on.

[Ronnie]

All right, this is Cole speaking. Now, before I bleed out through my penis from the combine incident, I just want you guys to try to talk it out and get it solved, okay? So we're gonna just make sure everything goes good. Okay? So Masha is like, hello. Well, you know, I stay here to see you because. Because Galina's like, what you doing here? I stay here to see you. She's like, well, I don't want to see you. It's like, well, then you can go back. Go back where? To wherever you come from. Or you go back. Freaking backstabbing prostitute slut.

[Ben]

Okay, okay, okay, okay. Let's just try to figure out a solution here, guys. That's why we're here. Okay, let's try again. Galina, you go ahead.

[Ronnie]

She's like, I invited you. I. Okay, you're pretending to be my friend. I invited you here for Christmas. I took you in. I gave your chicken its first calculator. And you. This is the way you thank me?

[Ben]

Like, she goes, I took you to dinners because you're nobody. Goes, okay, okay, let's be solution oriented here. Okay, let's do that. And Glenn's like, okay, well, I introduce you to everybody, and the next thing backstab out my back. My back is stabbed from Masha. She has. She goes, I'm not sure I backstabbed. And she goes, are you kidding me? You did not sleep with Steve while I was living here. She's like, oh, first of all, you wanted to date a married guy when you met him. How about that? How about that?

[Ronnie]

No, I wasn't. No, I wasn't. Oh, he wasn't married by then? No, he. He actually lives separate. You know, separate. I mean, like, same. Same bed as wife and married in the same house, but live separate technically.

[Ben]

So she would post in different room than him. And like, oh, so you live separate or was divorced? And she goes, he did not tell me. And so Cole's like, steve has a person he wants living here, living here. So we just need to all move on from the situation. Do we understand this?

[Ronnie]

No. No, I don't. I don't want to talk about this anymore. I did not for. I just want to Say, I did not kill your chickens. Oh, yes, you did. I cannot see them. I cannot find them. I'm assuming it was you because it was only you who was capable of this stuff. I mean, do you live in your own world?

[Ben]

Do you live in your horror world? Is that where you live? Hollow horror worlds?

[Ronnie]

Horror world? I love the idea that this place called Horror World. Come to Horror World for all your horror needs.

[Ben]

All your horror needs. Just two, two for one. High heels made out of clear plastic. You can see clear rock through them. Don't get your fingerprints on them, you dumb whore.

[Ronnie]

50% all look for us around the corner from State and Liberty and just. Just down the street from. Objection. In law.

[Ben]

Objection.

[Ronnie]

Your neighborhood.

[Ben]

Objection into it. So Masha's like, this is not going to go anywhere. She's not right mind. I mean, you need to see a specialist. Because I don't need to have you tell me what I need to do. Horse list. Okay. You need to see a horse list.

[Ronnie]

Okay.

[Ben]

You know what?

[Ronnie]

I'm so damn tired of dealing with relationships that are not mine in a business where we are struggling every single day to make. We are $7 million trillion dollars. All right, all right. All I want. Oh, okay. I just want Galena. Okay?

[Ben]

You have a vagina in your arm. Both of you. Has anybody ever told you, I look at your armpit, I see vagina there. How about your stick penis is in that armpit hole?

[Ronnie]

Cole, could you jump in here? All right, I'm Cole here. I was the star quarterback. And 15 years ago, you can act like this here, not like. Like this. Do not. Don't act. Let anything affect anything. Come the other day, because this better be not another blackout day, because there better be nine on top of that situation. I've lost a lot of blood, I gotta say. Do we have a hospital in this town?

[Ben]

Come on, Cole. Business never went off track, so I guess I'm confused about that. When did business go off track? There was no business off track. And so then we see flashback to three days ago when she was drinking at work. And she's like, okay, well, this conversation with Masha made me realize she definitely has no intention to apologize. So she has no remorse. So enjoy Wet Dog street. Because I still have key. I have key and I have crowbar. And this is all. All Galena need.

[Ronnie]

So they're like, okay, well, that didn't go so well. So then Stephen takes Glenn back to the office. And then Jesse and Steven just sit down and make a sandwich. So then that's great. So they're like, well, that was pointless. And Cole's like, yeah, there was nothing that got accomplished. Galena, what's going on with her, man? This gotta end. Like. Like, I mean, if she can't move on with this situation, put the business first, then she has got to go.

[Ben]

Yeah, but we need her. We need her in this business. And Jesse's like, do you think that, you know, just because you knew her before and how she was before, that's kind of cloud in your judgment on how she is now? I mean, is she a bow tie or she a bolo tie? Don't think about it before you answer. Think about it for answer.

[Ronnie]

Hey. Okay, I thought about it. Are we open to an ascot? No. As easy as it is to say, just cut her off and get rid of her. There's a lot going on behind the scenes that. Well, we need her. She knows a lot of shit about our company, is that we're running perfectly legally.

[Ben]

Ascot sounds pretty homosexual. It's pretty homosexual.

[Ronnie]

Why would they name a tie about getting into a car and having your ass grabbed?

[Ben]

What do we do about Kalina? What do we do? And Cole's like, well, I can tell you what would happen if I was in charge. There'd be consequences. You would have been fired 10 years ago. Cole, get the out of here. You would have at least been fired this episode for that tractor. So he's like, you. There would be changes. Or. Or she's out of here.

[Ronnie]

Yeah. And. And. And I'm watching him like, whoo. Okay, it's the cliffhanger is, what are they gonna do about Galena? But just kidding. The show continues on. So now we go to Kansas City, big city, where Ally's there going to swanky parties, doing city things, shopping, shopping, shopping. But it's not an alley scene. It's Stephen. And Stephen and. And Kalaa. They sit outside a restaurant. And Stephen's like, wow, Kala, that's the most western thing you've ever worn. I love it. And she's like, yeah, wow, you're pulling the chair out for me and everything. You would think this is a day. It's funny because we're, like, not together right now. Right, Right. America.

[Ben]

He's like, yeah, she doesn't have an apartment in Dallas yet, so now she's in a condo in Kansas City. So he's like, it's such a nice day. I actually took both dogs up on the farm. We were playing with the chickens.

[Ronnie]

Oh, Ginger. I know. Stop mentioning that. Like, we're still mourning over here.

[Ben]

Yeah. So they get some skinny marks, and he's gonna help her with her Dallas apartment because she's like, yeah, Dallas apartment is, like, so expensive. Get a job, Calla. You're not married to this man. What the hell? Why does he have to pay for everything? She's like, well, because I thought I was going to live with him, so now he has to pay for my apartment. No.

[Ronnie]

Yeah. Drive Uber. Okay. Work at. It's called work at McDonald's. Work anywhere. Okay. Don't have this man fund your apartment, man.

[Ben]

Yeah. Yeah. So she's like, well, at this point, I put three years of my life into living in Gallatin. Go. I saw your tweet where you said she said she put three years of her life living in Gallatin. I feel like I put four into watching this show.

[Ronnie]

No, I was like, she put three years into Gallatin. I put. Put. I put four hours into watching this show, and I have it worse. So she's like. She's like, look, I think I deserve something. Yeah, you deserve a medal for biggest dummy. Like, she's. You deserve nothing for your choices, okay? You put in your time. You got life experience out of it. You move to Dallas, knock on Leon Lockin's door. I'm sure she has a spare bed in there, and just start a new life.

[Ben]

But I'm confused because I didn't think she was living in Gallatin this whole. She hasn't been living in Gallatin for three years because the whole first year, she kept coming up to visit, and she would. They would only get each other for, like, a weekend at a time. And that was the big plot line. Like, is she ever going to move here? So she hasn't been here for three years. She's crazy.

[Ronnie]

She's. She's crazy. She's full of it. Stupid Calla.

[Ben]

So then I think she got rid of her apartment fairly recently to make a go of it. But, you know, it's not like.

[Ronnie]

I don't want to hear it, Kala. Yeah, okay. Because you had your. You were given an exit path, and you come crawling back, get a job, get out of this place, don't complain about Gallatin, and then come back to it, because that's right now. Yeah.

[Ben]

I'm sorry. Also, as the person that we're all friends with in our girlfriend groups, that's like, oh, my God, you guys, we all need to have a night because I'm totally breaking up with him. Girl power. And you're all, like, buying cosmos for each other, and you're like, we're girls, and Bronnie's kind of one, so yay. We're like, don't ever go back to him, girl. Like, that friend who's like, don't you ever go back to that loser. And here's what we need to make sure that he ain't paying for your apartment. Because that needs to just be you saying, yeah, girl power. And then, literally the next day, he paid for my apartment still.

[Ronnie]

Yeah. I said the exact same thing last week. I was like, she's one who makes you. Yeah, because. Well, because it's so obvious. I'm not saying your point is. I'm saying, like, no, no, no. One note. Like, she's like. Like, she is that person where then you get excited that you get your friend back and she. You take her out, you do this whole thing, and you like Stephen. Yeah, Just cheers to Stephen. Him, rear view mirror. And then next day, like, so Steve and I are back together, but I think he's really gonna change this. Like, oh, this girl, honestly.

[Ben]

Yeah. So he's like, well, I've been dealing with the Russians, you know? And she's like, I mean, those women are both psychotic. And he's like, yeah, my mom is actually gonna put together a family trip to the Ozarks, you know, And a lot of us are going out there, you know, even Uncle Jimmy and Aunt Darla.

[Ronnie]

So Uncle Jimmy and Aunt Darla, the big trip.

[Ben]

Uncle Jimmy, Aunt Darla, life of the party. You want to come? You have any interest?

[Ronnie]

She's like, well, as long as you think that it'll be okay. Did your family even say anything about me coming? Did your mom invite me? He's like, yeah, they asked me. It just makes me a little nervous. I don't want any drama to happen. If I get down there and people are being to me, I'm leaving and then coming back right away to be on television.

[Ben]

He's like, well, I'll make sure there's no drama. She goes, well, it does sound fun. Like, getting away would be really nice. And I would, like, love to hang out with everyone. Those hillbilly, fat, stupid hillbilly.

[Ronnie]

What is she getting away from? Because as far as we can tell, she has not. She refuses to get away from Steven. And as far as I can also tell, she has no job. So I don't know what she's trying to get away from.

[Ben]

Because, yeah, I'm not really sure.

[Ronnie]

As we can see.

[Ben]

Yeah, he's trying to get away from that friend. Like, are you back together with him? Yet.

[Ronnie]

So she's like, are you gonna go? Are you gonna let loose a little bit? He's like, we'll see. Probably. I might even say the gay word. I mean, the G word. I mean, pretend I never said anything. So for dinner, and the producer's like, honestly, Stephen, are you and Kala sleeping together still? He's like. Like.

[Ben]

The hus are all dots. Yeah. So then back at the condo, she's. He's packing his guitar. Oh, God, Stephen, please don't say you're that guy at the party. He's, like, whipping out the guitar. Oh, God.

[Ronnie]

Just let Donny Osmond do what Donny Osmond does. Don't bring your guitar, too.

[Ben]

Please don't. Because, you know, he only knows the G and he's trying to sing every song in one chord. Like, Stephen, stop. Stop.

[Ronnie]

So the family's going down to Lake of the Ozarks. And this is where we used to have a house. We used to all go to summer summer long and hang out. And there were so many good times and so many good memories. I can't wait to have Kala see it for the first time. This is going to be a fun few days. Days. Days.

[Ben]

So they go down there, and everyone's expecting a fight. So let's see what happens 24 hours later. Partying, case, seen Cola fighting. Callous. Fighting with Cole. Steven Junior's fighting with Kala. Kala's leaving to be continue.

[Ronnie]

My question is, did they invite Tessa down to the part? To the Ozarks? Because she deserves. She's the one who deserves a break. She's the one in that garage inspecting dribble doors and doing word documents and flyers and sticking them up everywhere. She's the one who needs a little time at the wing.

[Ben]

Tessa, let me tell you something.
