Except I hate the snow. But 20 00:00:57,600 --> 00:01:01,120 Speaker 3: they have such good skin and they have such good hair, 21 00:01:01,640 --> 00:01:03,920 Speaker 3: and like if they just get paid to like hang 22 00:01:03,960 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 3: out all day and talk about their cream soda, like 23 00:01:06,760 --> 00:01:11,600 Speaker 3: listen that, I feel like I'm there in life now, Trista. 24 00:01:11,959 --> 00:01:14,880 Speaker 1: Okay, do they talk about because I went to this 25 00:01:15,040 --> 00:01:17,480 Speaker 1: place the other day? Actually I was at the mall 26 00:01:17,959 --> 00:01:20,200 Speaker 1: with this place. I went to the mall the other 27 00:01:20,240 --> 00:01:22,039 Speaker 1: day and there was like a little stand where you 28 00:01:22,160 --> 00:01:26,119 Speaker 1: get the where you get SODA's and they had dirty 29 00:01:26,160 --> 00:01:28,640 Speaker 1: sodas or whatever, and I was like, well what do 30 00:01:28,720 --> 00:01:31,520 Speaker 1: I get? Do they ever talk about what their order is? 31 00:01:31,560 --> 00:01:33,800 Speaker 1: Because I really want to know what's good, Like, I 32 00:01:33,800 --> 00:01:36,600 Speaker 1: don't want to just just order they do. 33 00:01:36,720 --> 00:01:39,920 Speaker 2: Did you not start on season one? I haven't yet. 34 00:01:40,000 --> 00:01:43,080 Speaker 2: I'm so cool. I'm so mad at myself. Okay, you 35 00:01:43,120 --> 00:01:44,200 Speaker 2: got to start on season one. 36 00:01:44,560 --> 00:01:46,680 Speaker 3: So season one, I feel like did a really great 37 00:01:46,760 --> 00:01:49,040 Speaker 3: job of laying up these women, you know what I mean, 38 00:01:49,120 --> 00:01:51,760 Speaker 3: kind of what their lives are, what it entails in Utah, 39 00:01:51,840 --> 00:01:55,240 Speaker 3: and it is a very different lifestyle because traditionally, if 40 00:01:55,240 --> 00:01:57,760 Speaker 3: you are Mormon, you don't drink, there's no sex before 41 00:01:57,800 --> 00:02:00,360 Speaker 3: marriage and all of these things. And I believe that's 42 00:02:00,360 --> 00:02:05,000 Speaker 3: why Taylor Frankie Paul stood out because she was very 43 00:02:05,120 --> 00:02:08,480 Speaker 3: much a part of this mom talk group, but like 44 00:02:08,760 --> 00:02:11,600 Speaker 3: her life was not these things, Like she the whole 45 00:02:11,720 --> 00:02:15,239 Speaker 3: scenario where there was the swinging going on and that's. 46 00:02:15,080 --> 00:02:18,080 Speaker 2: So unheard of in their religion and culture. 47 00:02:18,639 --> 00:02:21,079 Speaker 3: And you know that she was divorced, and then there 48 00:02:21,160 --> 00:02:24,040 Speaker 3: was Dakota, and there's obviously sex out of marriage and 49 00:02:24,120 --> 00:02:27,800 Speaker 3: these kids, and so I believe that's why the attraction 50 00:02:27,960 --> 00:02:32,839 Speaker 3: to her started, because she seemed so real life like us, 51 00:02:32,880 --> 00:02:36,519 Speaker 3: whereas a lot of the other women are very traditional 52 00:02:36,800 --> 00:02:40,000 Speaker 3: Mormon and they're just prim and proper and pretty and 53 00:02:40,040 --> 00:02:45,200 Speaker 3: sweet and so like, so sheltered, it feels like at times. 54 00:02:45,639 --> 00:02:48,880 Speaker 3: So I actually found this show very fascinating in a 55 00:02:49,000 --> 00:02:52,600 Speaker 3: sense that like, these women had this social media following 56 00:02:53,120 --> 00:02:56,440 Speaker 3: for really the things that I'm telling you their mom 57 00:02:56,520 --> 00:03:00,680 Speaker 3: talk account, and then they went on reality television and 58 00:03:00,800 --> 00:03:02,560 Speaker 3: just like any of us who have been on reality TV, 59 00:03:02,639 --> 00:03:05,040 Speaker 3: you don't necessarily know what to expect when you do it. 60 00:03:05,520 --> 00:03:07,680 Speaker 3: And I knew by the end of season one. I 61 00:03:07,720 --> 00:03:10,040 Speaker 3: was like, this is hot. There's gonna be like seven seasons. 62 00:03:09,639 --> 00:03:11,959 Speaker 3: It's the New Kardashians, you know what I mean. The 63 00:03:12,040 --> 00:03:14,680 Speaker 3: Kardashians for me are played out. I haven't watched it 64 00:03:14,720 --> 00:03:18,880 Speaker 3: in years, but like, this is the New Kardashians. So yes, 65 00:03:18,919 --> 00:03:21,040 Speaker 3: and they do a lot of social media too. Trista 66 00:03:21,240 --> 00:03:24,280 Speaker 3: A lot of them talking about their soda order, like 67 00:03:24,320 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 3: what they get. Like I see Jesse a lot running 68 00:03:26,600 --> 00:03:27,880 Speaker 3: through and she's like, oh, today, in. 69 00:03:27,800 --> 00:03:29,200 Speaker 2: My coffee I got. 70 00:03:29,280 --> 00:03:31,160 Speaker 3: Like they're not supposed to even have caffeine, so like 71 00:03:31,200 --> 00:03:33,360 Speaker 3: the fact that they're like coke float is the highlight 72 00:03:33,400 --> 00:03:35,080 Speaker 3: of their day. I'm like, damn, I wish I lived 73 00:03:35,080 --> 00:03:38,920 Speaker 3: a simple life like that, Like what a joy it 74 00:03:39,000 --> 00:03:41,600 Speaker 3: must be to only stress over what's gonna be in 75 00:03:41,680 --> 00:03:42,880 Speaker 3: your fruity soda at the. 76 00:03:42,920 --> 00:03:45,200 Speaker 2: End of the day, Like take me along, just let 77 00:03:45,200 --> 00:03:46,000 Speaker 2: me come and visit. 78 00:03:47,720 --> 00:03:51,720 Speaker 1: Well, it's funny, Heather, our producer, just said that Taylor's 79 00:03:51,840 --> 00:03:54,640 Speaker 1: order is doctor Pepper, coconut cream, vanilla, and a squeeze 80 00:03:54,680 --> 00:03:55,040 Speaker 1: of lime. 81 00:03:55,120 --> 00:03:56,320 Speaker 2: And you know what's funny. 82 00:03:56,920 --> 00:03:59,680 Speaker 1: That day when I needed a soda, I was craving 83 00:03:59,680 --> 00:04:02,920 Speaker 1: it and I don't drink caffeine normally, but I had. 84 00:04:03,480 --> 00:04:06,040 Speaker 1: I got a Doctor Pepper with coconut cream, so I 85 00:04:06,080 --> 00:04:09,120 Speaker 1: was halfway there.
