Speaker 1: I'm Teddy Mellencamp and this is Emily Simpson and you're
Speaker 1: listening to popping Off.
Speaker 2: We can't be grateful enough that we get to recap
Speaker 2: the Secret Lives of Mormon Wives, and this episode we're
Speaker 2: recapping episode three. But before we even get into that,
Speaker 2: we need to discuss something.
Speaker 1: Okay, what is it? Something that has to do with
Speaker 1: their Instagram posts?
Speaker 2: No, that's we do need to discuss that as well.
Speaker 2: But the first thing that I need to discuss is
Speaker 2: that Jennifer Affleck akay whatever her husband's name is Affleck
Speaker 2: is not related to Ben Affleck.
Speaker 1: Yes, right, I sent you that, didn't it?
Speaker 2: Yes?
Speaker 1: Other people send it to you.
Speaker 2: Yeah, well, I mean everyone and their mother sent it
Speaker 2: to me like the second it went out. Because this
Speaker 2: entire season, she's the only one that gets the last name.
Speaker 2: They claim that their second cousins, Like they are doubling
Speaker 2: down on this, Like I assume they had like a
Speaker 2: twenty three and meters confirming it.
Speaker 1: The sluts went back, they went back to like like
Speaker 1: nine generations or something.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and there is absolutely no relation, no, none, zero.
Speaker 1: Do you think this is gonna surprise Jen Affleck? Jen Affleck?
Speaker 2: Like do you think that was part of the reason
Speaker 2: why she married.
Speaker 1: Is his name Zach? I think it's yeah, it's Zach I.
Speaker 1: I think that was definitely. I mean, it wasn't his
Speaker 1: hair that was the turn on, so it had to
Speaker 1: be the last name.
Speaker 2: But like, how would you feel if you were lied to?
Speaker 2: Like what is the point of lying about that? You
Speaker 2: could just say, like, maybe we're related Affleck isn't a
Speaker 2: common name whatever it may be, But no, they were related.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I don't know. I would have a hard time
Speaker 1: saying something like that and publicly disseminating it without doing
Speaker 1: some actual background research to back it up. Without doing
Speaker 1: that's like me being like, yeah, Jessica Simpson and I,
Speaker 1: you know, cousins, second cousins, Yeah, once removed, But hey,
Speaker 1: we're related, you know, have we figured it out? All
Speaker 1: we need to know is that we have the same
Speaker 1: last name, and we're good to go. Right, I'm going
Speaker 1: to request from now on on Orange County that they
Speaker 1: put Emily Simpson at the bottom.
Speaker 2: And then a little picture of Jessica next to it,
Speaker 2: just like a picture of her Like, yeah.
Speaker 1: I can't, it's too good.
Speaker 2: So that was one of the things that we learned
Speaker 2: during the break, and then we also learned who is
Speaker 2: essentially trending the most at this point in time. Their
Speaker 2: Instagram growth in the past ten days has been the
Speaker 2: following the low I'm actually surprised by this because normally
Speaker 2: when you're hated or you're the villain or whatever phrase
Speaker 2: you want to use, you get a lot of followers.
Speaker 2: But the lowest on the following count is Whitney at
Speaker 2: fifty nine thousand followers in ten days.
Speaker 1: That's still huge. That's still, I mean, a hell of
Speaker 1: a lot more than we're getting. That's what's wrong with
Speaker 1: the people out there.
Speaker 2: Yeah, then Layla gets one hundred and one thousand, Mikayla
Speaker 2: one hundred and sixteen thousand, Jesse one hundred and twenty
Speaker 2: five thousand, Jen one hundred and thirty thousand, may See
Speaker 2: one hundred and forty thousand, to Me one hundred and
Speaker 2: seventy thousand, and Taylor one hundred and ninety three thousand followers.
Speaker 1: It's crazy, do you think, because obviously on Housewives our
Speaker 1: accounts don't grow that quickly. Do you think It's because
Speaker 1: it's Hulu and they release all the episodes at once,
Speaker 1: so when people binge them, they get more invested as
Speaker 1: opposed to like a weekly Well that's what I was thinking,
Speaker 1: Like you into someone's life, you know what I mean.
Speaker 2: Because I'm trying to think, like on Housewives, you kind
Speaker 2: of what do you get like eleven thousand people following
Speaker 2: you a week about I think it's like ten to
Speaker 2: eleven thousand at the beginning.
Speaker 1: I don't know how it is when you're.
Speaker 2: A long time long time I'm standing out with wife
Speaker 2: because I wasn't one, But.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I mean I think it slows down as you
Speaker 1: get more followers and you've been on longer. But like
Speaker 1: I think mine's only grown maybe like forty thousand since
Speaker 1: the show's been airing. What yeah, I mean just since
Speaker 1: this season. Oh this season. I was like, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 1: that seems off.
Speaker 2: But I think also, I think people are seeing so
Speaker 2: much about the show that then they go and binge it,
Speaker 2: and so it's not necessarily by episode, it's by when
Speaker 2: they decide to watch, because I don't know, I mean,
Speaker 2: unless you're a complete lunatic, you're not watching one episode and.
Speaker 1: Then waiting a week to watch the next one, right,
Speaker 1: You're watching all eight at once. That's what I was saying.
Speaker 1: Maybe that's why there their social media grows so quickly
Speaker 1: because people actually sit and binge the whole thing. Also,
Speaker 1: I mean, I can't even look at Instagram without seeing
Speaker 1: eight billion reels with these girls like they are. They
Speaker 1: are everywhere. No, it's impossible not to see them.
Speaker 2: I mean, and it's if I tried not to see
Speaker 2: the then you send.
Speaker 1: It to me so that if I haven't already.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean between the Whitney one with a ping
Speaker 2: pong flinging out of her vi jaj to then the
Speaker 2: one of her doing a backflip and farting Like I mean,
Speaker 2: if I have to do those things to get my
Speaker 2: Instagram to grow more than one thousand, six hundred and
Speaker 2: fifty nine in the past fourteen days, I am willing.
Speaker 1: You would do a golf ball or a ping pong
Speaker 1: ball shooting out of your vagina. Well, I draw the
Speaker 1: line at that. I just I wouldn't do it. I mean,
Speaker 1: I definitely wouldn't do it with Edwin. Right if I
Speaker 1: went to Shane and I was like, look, here's what
Speaker 1: we're gonna do. We're gonna make it real. Okay, you
Speaker 1: go get a golf club. Now you're just gonna shoot
Speaker 1: the ping pong ball into my vagina and then my
Speaker 1: vagina's gonna shoot it out at you. Okay, he would
Speaker 1: he would think I was insane. He would get in
Speaker 1: his car and he would drive away. Yeah, like I
Speaker 1: but here's the thing.
Speaker 2: I think we can show to one another's house and
Speaker 2: do it together and that would be all right.
Speaker 1: Yeah, but he would he talked to me for like
Speaker 1: a week. If he saw that, he'd be like, what
Speaker 1: is wrong with you?
Speaker 2: And Teddy, you're seriously Jorman's do it?
Speaker 1: Then we could, we could do the fartwood that Whitney
Speaker 1: just did.
Speaker 2: That one kind of grows me out even more than
Speaker 2: the ping pong because at least the ping pong, I
Speaker 2: would have to assume there was some sort of machine
Speaker 2: in there that flung that ping pong out like it
Speaker 2: didn't actually go in her vagina.
Speaker 1: But yeah, so it's it's a lot. It's really a
Speaker 1: lot to keep going.
Speaker 2: As I mean, compared to the reels that you create
Speaker 2: with Shane, where you're like date night and you like change.
Speaker 1: Your outfit and yeah, stays in the same.
Speaker 2: To get a ping pong to allegedly fly out of
Speaker 2: your vagina, Hale has to take some effort.
Speaker 1: There's no way I can only get him to make
Speaker 1: that reel because he didn't have to change his outfit.
Speaker 1: Do you understand? Oh my gosh.
Speaker 2: So episode three starts with Mikayla and Macy inviting Whitney
Speaker 2: over so they can discuss the baby shower drama. Whitney
Speaker 2: didn't think she needed to let Taylor know beforehand that
Speaker 2: she wouldn't be coming. Mikayla thinks Whitney purposefully didn't send
Speaker 2: the text because she wanted the attention to be on her.
Speaker 2: She wants to be the leader of mom Talk, which
Speaker 2: is confirmed because we just saw the most recent promo
Speaker 2: where they all say what they are and at the
Speaker 2: end is Whitney and she's like, and I am the leader.
Speaker 2: But here's the thing, Whitney, this is why the people
Speaker 2: are on your ass. You know, damn well, not showing
Speaker 2: up a big filmed event was going to be a
Speaker 2: big deal.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Absolutely, So you're saying it was very methodical.
Speaker 2: Yeah, she knew that it was going to be talked about.
Speaker 2: She knew that it would create another storyline. I mean,
Speaker 2: I don't think these girls have never watched reality television before,
Speaker 2: and if they're committing this much time to their tiktoks.
Speaker 2: Imagine the research and whatnot they're putting into before filming
Speaker 2: this television shock.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you're saying the forethought that goes into it. But
Speaker 1: here's the thing, though, don't I mean, you don't want
Speaker 1: to miss big group events because then you don't have
Speaker 1: camera time. And I feel like Whitney wants camera time.
Speaker 1: So that's why it's surprising. But then she got like
Speaker 1: four or five scenes talking about it.
Speaker 2: Yeah, yeah, which is more than she would have gotten
Speaker 2: in the group. What would she have done in the group.
Speaker 2: Came in in a very awkward dress and a very
Speaker 2: fluffy peasant gown. Yeah, a George Washington collar or a
Speaker 2: pressy bow.
Speaker 1: Right. But yeah, so we knew this was going to happen.
Speaker 2: Then we go to Zach, not related to Ben, at
Speaker 2: Affleck's house. He just graduated from BYU. So Jen is
Speaker 2: throwing him a graduation party.
Speaker 1: Why is Jen throwing it if it's at his parents' house?
Speaker 2: Huh?
Speaker 1: I don't It's unclear. Do I live with his parents? Maybe?
Speaker 1: I don't know. I don't know if I figured that out.
Speaker 1: And why does Jen act she's the bread winner when
Speaker 1: he has parents and his dad's a surgeon. Oh well,
Speaker 1: you didn't see these tiktoks.
Speaker 2: I mean, I have no idea of this is actual,
Speaker 2: actually factual. But according to TikTok, this is the case.
Speaker 1: It's that his.
Speaker 2: Parents gave him a big chunk of money and he
Speaker 2: squandered it all allegedly amambling.
Speaker 1: Right, So now all.
Speaker 2: Of their financials have to come from Jen, not Lopez.
Speaker 1: Affleck right, Jennifer Lynn, Jennifer Lynn. Correct.
Speaker 2: So Zach's plan is to go to medical school, as
Speaker 2: all the other men and his family have done before him.
Speaker 2: He makes a comment that he hopes Jen's friends will
Speaker 2: behave at the party. I actually hate when people say this.
Speaker 1: You mean, like when men are like, oh, I hope
Speaker 1: your friends behave. Yeah, then don't invite just my friends
Speaker 1: to your party. Well I'm sure he probably didn't want to.
Speaker 2: Right, But if your wife is the breadwinner and she's
Speaker 2: the one on this show and she's making more money
Speaker 2: and she's about to put your ass in med school,
Speaker 2: suck it up with the one friend that drinks a
Speaker 2: flask in the in the hot top and then jacuzzi.
Speaker 1: Right, Yeah, I mean it could be worse.
Speaker 2: I mean, these some of these chicks have been doing ketamine,
Speaker 2: like let them.
Speaker 1: You didn't see that?
Speaker 2: No, I was like, what, Yeah, they've done the ketymine treatments.
Speaker 1: But oh, wait, are you talking about when they got botox? No,
Speaker 1: that's when they had laughing gas.
Speaker 2: Oh.
Speaker 1: I don't know what ketymine is. I'm not a drug addict.
Speaker 1: I don't know.
Speaker 2: Ketamine is the drug that you can go to with
Speaker 2: a doctor and they give you the medication whatever. It's
Speaker 2: like a I think a dog tranquilizer and a horse tranquilizer.
Speaker 1: But what it's supposed to do. It's supposed to like rewire.
Speaker 2: Your brain to help you get rid of you know,
Speaker 2: if you have anxiety or depression or whatever it may be.
Speaker 2: I'm not a doctor, so I'm just saying what I've heard,
Speaker 2: and it's supposed to like help reconnect parts in your
Speaker 2: brain however you can if you don't do it with
Speaker 2: a doctor.
Speaker 1: It is like very addictive. It's what.
Speaker 2: Matthew Perry died from overdosing on oh okay, because he
Speaker 2: was going to a doctor to get it, and then
Speaker 2: they started giving it to him on his own and
Speaker 2: he started giving himself his own dosage. And it's like
Speaker 2: very very strong and lethal, and like should if you
Speaker 2: are doing it for medical reasons, it should be accompanied
Speaker 2: with a doctor. The doctor okay, And it's like an
Speaker 2: IV and that whole thing. But I digress. They have
Speaker 2: a soda station at the party, which is how Mormons
Speaker 2: usually get their caffeine. Instead of coffee shops, they have
Speaker 2: soda shops.
Speaker 1: What would be your order? Like? Would it be an
Speaker 1: intense one? I don't know, but you know when I
Speaker 1: hear them order and they talk about how they would
Speaker 1: add like the coconut and the passion fruit or whatever,
Speaker 1: and then they put like the cream at the end,
Speaker 1: that sounds really good.
Speaker 2: It does sound really good. But this week, at this
Speaker 2: past week at the horse show, I saw that there
Speaker 2: was it wasn't met for uh sodas. It was meant
Speaker 2: for snow cones. But I was like, can I have
Speaker 2: a squirret a cherry and my diet coke? And they
Speaker 2: said no, no, but they said yes, but they charged
Speaker 2: me a dollar for it.
Speaker 1: I was like for one squirt of sugar juice? Well,
Speaker 1: I mean, what denomination would you like to be charged?
Speaker 1: Do you have quarters on you? Most people don't have change?
Speaker 2: Well, I paid it with a credit card like everyone,
Speaker 2: I mean, who carries cash?
Speaker 1: Like, are you an animal? That's why they had to
Speaker 1: make it a dollar, because what do you have to
Speaker 1: do charge fifty cents on your amax?
Speaker 2: Well, it's in addition to the diet coke, which was
Speaker 2: two dollars, so then it should be two dollars and
Speaker 2: fifty cents.
Speaker 1: But a full dollar for one pump? My god, do
Speaker 1: you sound like Shane who won't get like the wet
Speaker 1: burrito because they charge an extra dollar to smother it.
Speaker 1: So he says, no, what is a wet burrito? Like
Speaker 1: when they smother the burrito at the end, he gets
Speaker 1: mad that they charge a dollar to like smother it,
Speaker 1: so he gets all they smothering with sour cream, No,
Speaker 1: with just like the green enchilada sauce. But he doesn't
Speaker 1: want to pay. Ye, I don't know, like wherever he
Speaker 1: goes his burrito place Baha Fresh, I don't know, maybe,
Speaker 1: but he won't do it because he doesn't want to
Speaker 1: pay the extra dollar.
Speaker 2: I mean it's I mean, that's pricey just to take
Speaker 2: go like this.
Speaker 1: Yeah, you guys don't make any sense to me, but
Speaker 1: you're like and someonem in thousands of dollars on horses,
Speaker 1: but I ain't paying a dollar for a squoret of flavor.
Speaker 2: Correct, I didn't do it again, I didn't make that.
Speaker 2: I enjoyed it, but I'm not going to make that
Speaker 2: mistake twice. Jin's mom arrives at the party, and Jin
Speaker 2: gives us some family background. Her mom comes from Ecuador
Speaker 2: and she is not wealthy. She's the cleaning lady at
Speaker 2: the same hospital that Zach's dad is a heart surgeon at.
Speaker 2: She's felt judged by her in laws before because she
Speaker 2: grew up in a completely different environment. And then the
Speaker 2: topic of drinking alcohol comes up at the dinner table.
Speaker 2: Andy thinks she, Mason, and Jen are the most devout
Speaker 2: of the entire group. Putting coffee into your body is
Speaker 2: a no go. But slurp up four hundred and eighty
Speaker 2: seven grams of sugar and your sodas and your.
Speaker 1: Tests which also has caffeine. I never understood this. I
Speaker 1: have actually asked Shane this because Shane has never had
Speaker 1: coffee or tea because of the caffeine. But he gets
Speaker 1: his damn big gulp every morning. Like, make it make sense.
Speaker 1: How much is his big gulp? Do you think I
Speaker 1: don't know. You mean, how much does it cost?
Speaker 2: Yeah, because the swig, so it's three dollars for soda
Speaker 2: with half and half peach and vanilla, so it's only
Speaker 2: three dollars. That's less than Starbucks. It is no wonder
Speaker 2: they're drinking sodas. They're saving money because they're the bread winners.
Speaker 2: But how many swigs are being sold a day for
Speaker 2: all these businesses to be staying running at three bucks
Speaker 2: a pop with all those squirts, I don't know. Well anyhow,
Speaker 2: then Tailors will about to leave the party early, and
Speaker 2: she makes an effort to say goodbye to Whitney before
Speaker 2: she goes. Taylor suggests they talk in person if there
Speaker 2: are any issues, and Whitney isn't even pretending like she
Speaker 2: wants to make an effort.
Speaker 1: She's like, yeah, no, I'd rather not.
Speaker 2: No, Whitney doesn't want to have a conversation with Taylor
Speaker 2: because when she's vulnerable in the past, Taylor's taken advantage
Speaker 2: of that.
Speaker 1: I'm confused, like such like when I know I need
Speaker 1: a context or an example or something, because honestly, Taylor
Speaker 1: doesn't give me that vibe.
Speaker 2: Yeah, Taylor doesn't give me I mean granted, we may
Speaker 2: know a new tailor at this point, but Taylor doesn't.
Speaker 1: Give me like mean girl vibes. No, not take advantage vibes.
Speaker 1: Whitney does.
Speaker 2: Yeah, and Whitney seems more like she's looking for things
Speaker 2: to be upset with other people about or judge on
Speaker 2: when it's like.
Speaker 1: You know, Taylor's I feel like Taylor's just trying to
Speaker 1: get through her shit.
Speaker 2: She's like, listen, Dakota is a shit show on pre
Speaker 2: I can't get in the jacuzzi, I can't drink, I
Speaker 2: can't swing, things are left around you.
Speaker 1: Dacota eats his boogers.
Speaker 2: Oh I can't and uh yeah, every time I see
Speaker 2: to code, I have that.
Speaker 1: Yeah.
Speaker 2: Whitney tells Macy the difference between herself and Taylor is
Speaker 2: if Taylor didn't attend Whitney's baby shower, she would have
Speaker 2: called her ride.
Speaker 1: After Taylor didn't do that. Wait, Whitney tells Macey, Oh, oh,
Speaker 1: so Whitney's putting the burden on Taylor now that Taylor
Speaker 1: should have called her and said, why weren't you at
Speaker 1: my baby shower? Well, Leanne already called her. Why does
Speaker 1: Taylor need to do it? I don't know she wants
Speaker 1: the whole family to call.
Speaker 2: Like, who do you want us to call? Whitney? Why
Speaker 2: didn't Whitney can't come on? But what does it say
Speaker 2: in Mormonism about being an emotional vampire? Because I feel
Speaker 2: like that's what Whitney is.
Speaker 1: I don't think that's actually in the doctrine anywhere, like
Speaker 1: the words emotional vampire, but I feel like I know
Speaker 1: what that's like. There's someone that I had to deal
Speaker 1: with for four months that I feel like is an
Speaker 1: emotional vampire. Whack a doodle, whack a doodle, whack a doodle.
Speaker 2: I feel like Whitney might be a touch of a
Speaker 2: whack a doodle. I feel like you're very Mormon with
Speaker 2: those ice drinks that you always have.
Speaker 1: It's because I can't. It's all I could find in
Speaker 1: the refrigerator and I need to have some refreshment while
Speaker 1: I talk to you. I know, I like to have
Speaker 1: a multiple things get very parched me too.
Speaker 2: I have to have a million SIPs. Then everyone gets
Speaker 2: into the hot tub. Jesse's husband Jordan, pulls out a flask.
Speaker 2: This causes controversy considering they're in a Mormon household and
Speaker 2: drinking alcohols.
Speaker 1: Against the beliefs. What do you think about that?
Speaker 2: Well, I think it.
Speaker 1: It really depends on the situation.
Speaker 2: Like I have Mormon friends or people that work with
Speaker 2: me that are Lds, and I kind of know where
Speaker 2: they stand on stuff, like they're not going to be
Speaker 2: Like I've stayed at their houses and I've brought my
Speaker 2: own coffee.
Speaker 1: Would you drink at their house if you knew that
Speaker 1: they didn't drink and that they didn't like alcohol, would
Speaker 1: you drink alcohol at their house? I think I've had
Speaker 1: a glass of wine before at somebody's house. Did you ask?
Speaker 2: Yeah, Well, because they have said, we don't care if
Speaker 2: other people drink. It's just not something we do, right,
Speaker 2: But like I wouldn't drink Like so my mother in
Speaker 2: law is like very very Christian and doesn't believe in
Speaker 2: alcohol or like dressing up for Halloween, like it's very
Speaker 2: very intense. I don't drink at her house, like I
Speaker 2: know her stance on it is no alcohol for anyone ever,
Speaker 2: and it would cause a problem in our relationship if
Speaker 2: I were to have a drink. So I think there's
Speaker 2: a difference, Like if somebody's.
Speaker 1: Like, yeah, do it, you do you? We just don't
Speaker 1: have it bring a bottle of wine to dinner. Yeah, well,
Speaker 1: I think my question is with the hot tub, do
Speaker 1: you think they just did it because they knew they
Speaker 1: were on cameras. So they're trying to be rebellious, like
Speaker 1: they want to be known as Mormons because it's controversial.
Speaker 1: It's a thing to throw out there, like we're Mormons,
Speaker 1: were Mormons. But then they want to rebel against Mormonism.
Speaker 1: So any opportunity they get to rebel, I feel like
Speaker 1: they take it.
Speaker 2: But also, who enjoys drinking something out of a flask?
Speaker 1: Not me in a hot tub. I don't want to
Speaker 1: drink alcohol in a hot tub. I feel like that's gross,
Speaker 1: like it gets all heated up.
Speaker 2: No, and if I was going to drink something, it
Speaker 2: needed to be like a frozen margarita deliciousness, not a
Speaker 2: hot flask that was like sitting by the bubbles.
Speaker 1: That was in somebody's pocket sick.
Speaker 2: I never feel the need to drink bad enough that
Speaker 2: I would drink out.
Speaker 1: Of a flask. No. But the rest of the mom Talk.
Speaker 2: Crew gives them side eye, and Jenna's upset about it.
Speaker 2: She feels like Jesse and Jordan are disrespecting them.
Speaker 1: Was Jenn even in this hot tub, or she was
Speaker 1: just spye from the side. I don't know, I don't
Speaker 1: think so, yeah, she was spying.
Speaker 2: Then Jesse and Jordan joke that Jen and Zach needs
Speaker 2: shots and openly takes swigs of vodka in front of
Speaker 2: the others. So hot tub time is over pretty quickly.
Speaker 2: But messy Jesse is I like her. She's really growing
Speaker 2: on me.
Speaker 1: Messy Jesse. Yeah, Messy Jesse. I'm still I feel like
Speaker 1: they need to show me a little more of her
Speaker 1: relationship with Jordan. I was just gonna say the same thing.
Speaker 1: I feel like that was the only scene where we
Speaker 1: even see Jordan in the hot tub, right, because I
Speaker 1: can't remember him unless maybe he's like in the background somewhere,
Speaker 1: But there really isn't anything where it shows their relationship.
Speaker 3: Yeah.
Speaker 2: I mean a lot of the girls Impress have said
Speaker 2: that their personal stories were cut, so maybe Jesse and
Speaker 2: Jordan just didn't give us enough drama in their personal lives,
Speaker 2: so that's why we didn't get to see it.
Speaker 1: Yeah, well, I mean it was a lot in the
Speaker 1: eight episode, so I get it. They probably had to
Speaker 1: cut out a lot of the personal things and just
Speaker 1: focus more on the group dynamic and the whole mom
Speaker 1: talk thing. So obviously the show is going to get
Speaker 1: another season, so I assume maybe that's when they delve
Speaker 1: more into personal stories. And I don't mean to brag,
Speaker 1: but Jesse followed me on Instagram? Did she follow you?
Speaker 1: Probably not? I don't know. I'll love Can you just
Speaker 1: look real quick you? Oh my gosh, we have to
Speaker 1: confirm this right now. Yeah, I need to know now. Okay,
Speaker 1: she does not follow me? Oh did you follow her first? Though? No?
Speaker 1: So she so she followed you on prompted she.
Speaker 2: Followed me because our pods are tagged in Secret Lives
Speaker 2: on Hulu like that Instagram.
Speaker 1: So I think I probably said something.
Speaker 2: Nice about her and she was like, oh, or she
Speaker 2: saw that I just got extensions and she was like,
Speaker 2: I want to do her extension. Like there's some reason,
Speaker 2: but I do feel like we could be friends with Jessie.
Speaker 1: All right, I'm gonna DM her.
Speaker 2: Apparently I commented under a Secret Lives post, so she
Speaker 2: saw me. There.
Speaker 1: See that's what it is. You're out there all over
Speaker 1: the place commenting. I can't even find the girl's Instagram.
Speaker 2: Ashamed to do it, but then may see Whitney, Mchaela,
Speaker 2: and Jen are all at a rejuvenation center getting botox.
Speaker 2: Macy's going to take the laughing gas when she gets
Speaker 2: her injections because it's getting high for free. This isn't
Speaker 2: quotes and not against the rules.
Speaker 1: How is that? How? I don't think. I feel like
Speaker 1: they just make their own rules.
Speaker 2: Listen, if putting botchulism in your face and uh, huffing
Speaker 2: gas isn't against the rules, and neither is bed jumping.
Speaker 2: Because we just saw on Instagram about a girl who got.
Speaker 1: The like it was soaking.
Speaker 2: Yeah, no, she said she was the one doing bed jumping.
Speaker 2: She goes, oh, what, she jumped on the bed. She
Speaker 2: jumped on the bed so the other people could soak.
Speaker 2: But it's like where I need to see like a
Speaker 2: list of actual rules, Like I don't want things to
Speaker 2: be left to interpretation.
Speaker 1: I want to see them. These are these are all loopholes. Yeah,
Speaker 1: and we can work through every single one of these rules.
Speaker 1: I mean, here's the thing they're saying that laughing gas
Speaker 1: or boto isn't isn't ruled out because there isn't anything
Speaker 1: in the doctrine that actually lists specifically laughing gas and botox. Right, yeah, I.
Speaker 2: Mean, is there anything that says anything about OnlyFans, like
Speaker 2: who's updating this this start this doctrine, Like the doctrine
Speaker 2: needs to be updated with new trends exactly because your
Speaker 2: middriff on your social media or your social media.
Speaker 1: Are you allowed to shoot ping pong balls out of
Speaker 1: your vagina? That's the real question. And she said she's
Speaker 1: the most devout right.
Speaker 2: But then Mikaela tries laughing gas for the first time,
Speaker 2: and it seems like she's having the time of her life.
Speaker 1: She probably is.
Speaker 2: Whitney admits that people come for the botox and the
Speaker 2: laughing gas, especially this mom talk group. I gotta tell you,
Speaker 2: like it was the first time I was like pissed
Speaker 2: at my doctor's Like she's never off for me this shit.
Speaker 1: Okay, I agree. I've gotten botox since I was thirty two.
Speaker 1: I'm now forty eight, so not one time have I
Speaker 1: ever been offered laughing gas. When I got botox, I
Speaker 1: just I just get a filler. I don't even killer.
Speaker 1: They don't offer shit. No, I don't even get numb.
Speaker 1: I'm just like shoot it in. It's fine.
Speaker 2: I can take me to the ice pack, and I'll
Speaker 2: just have bumps all over my face.
Speaker 1: Yeah, I leave here, I'll just hold myself together like
Speaker 1: this as I leave.
Speaker 2: Yeah, I mean, I was offended that nobody's ever offered
Speaker 2: me laughing gas, and then thought, maybe I need my
Speaker 2: next botox.
Speaker 1: Treatment is going to need to be in Utah, I think,
Speaker 1: so we need to get swig in botox, A swig
Speaker 1: in botox in a flask, apparently.
Speaker 2: And then in the LDS religion, this is the next sentence,
Speaker 2: which is my favorite part. And the LDS religion, your
Speaker 2: body is seen as a temple, so you're only meant
Speaker 2: to put clean.
Speaker 1: Things in it, right, botox.
Speaker 2: That's why it's surprising they don't hold a clear stance
Speaker 2: against plast stick surgery as far as the girls know.
Speaker 2: Jen tells this small group of girls about Luca's baby
Speaker 2: blessing this week. I'm like, you're having another party. You
Speaker 2: just had one that was a different party that was
Speaker 2: for graduation.
Speaker 1: Right now they're doing a baby blessing. I actually had
Speaker 1: a baby blessing for Annabelle. Was it in your living
Speaker 1: room like that? No? Was it all the man all
Speaker 1: the men? Yes? No, But it was at the church.
Speaker 1: I thought it was going to be at the church,
Speaker 1: and then it was. But then I realized they can't
Speaker 1: film at the church. No, you can't film at the church.
Speaker 1: So yeah, that's why they did it in the living room.
Speaker 2: So then they did in the living room. And then
Speaker 2: they just leave all the women out. They're not allowed
Speaker 2: to pray over the baby, just so it was the men.
Speaker 1: Yeah, we didn't do it for my boys, but we
Speaker 1: did it for Annabel. I don't know if it really helped.
Speaker 1: She's still quite rambuncious and a pain in my ass.
Speaker 2: So yeah, Well, the hypocrisy of what you can and
Speaker 2: cannot put in your body is this unspoken storyline is
Speaker 2: probably one of my favorite parts because like I just
Speaker 2: keep like a running scroll of like all the things
Speaker 2: I'm like, botox okay, laughing gas okay, yeah, Ketamine okay,
Speaker 2: one glass of red wine a month not okay, not okay.
Speaker 1: Coffee absently okay, diet coke okay.
Speaker 2: A penis but not thrusting that's fine, fine, yes, thrusting penis.
Speaker 1: No having sex when you're sixteen to twenty one year
Speaker 1: old and having a baby. It's fine if you're married.
Speaker 1: If you're married, just get married, not ever having an orgasm.
Speaker 1: Totally fine, no problem.
Speaker 2: But then Demi is getting her hair done by Jesse
Speaker 2: at jay z Styles Macy.
Speaker 1: You said it wrong. Oh my god.
Speaker 3: Jes Styles Macy spilled the beans to to me that
Speaker 3: she may not be invited to Luca's baby blessing, but
Speaker 3: invited all the girls from nom talk two weeks ago.
Speaker 2: Then they did a flashback, yes and she did. She did,
Speaker 2: which is why they're confused. So Demmy decides to FaceTime
Speaker 2: Jen to get a direct answer.
Speaker 1: I'm surprised Jin didn't cave in this moment.
Speaker 3: I know.
Speaker 2: She's really scared of Zach because she's, like Zach said,
Speaker 2: he didn't feel the need to invite a ton of
Speaker 2: people he wasn't close with. Zach doesn't see to me Jesse, Layla,
Speaker 2: and Taylor as strong members of the church.
Speaker 1: But this is coming from a guy who squandered all
Speaker 1: his money gambling. Make it makes sense. It's never going
Speaker 1: to make sense.
Speaker 2: And then Demi and Jesse had a date and time
Speaker 2: of the blessing and their calendar, so they were invited. Originally,
Speaker 2: the question is are they uninvited because they're not good
Speaker 2: enough Mormons?
Speaker 1: Yes? Yes, right, that's it according to Zach.
Speaker 2: According to Zach who Zach is, apparently.
Speaker 1: The squandered all of his inheritance by gambling.
Speaker 2: But really verbally is inappropriate to his wife for what
Speaker 2: we've seen on the text. But then Demi's hosting a
Speaker 2: Gallantine's Day party at her house. She's stolen her bra
Speaker 2: getting ready when the girls start to arrive. She thought
Speaker 2: she told everyone to arrive at seven thirty, but it
Speaker 2: was seven. She's having her husband put together a charcuterie board.
Speaker 2: I want to think of the amount of times that
Speaker 2: I've gotten ready upstairs and been like Edwin goes set
Speaker 2: up for the party downstairs.
Speaker 1: Yeah, please go make a charcuterie board.
Speaker 2: If I even said the word Charcuterie'd be like, what
Speaker 2: are you talking about? Right to like knowing how to
Speaker 2: unwrap the salami and cut it and add different cheeses
Speaker 2: and put it in Like I mean, could Shane do that?
Speaker 1: No, Shane drives the In and Out and gets a burger.
Speaker 1: That's all he could do. I would have to be
Speaker 1: like Shane, go to In and Out and get twenty
Speaker 1: double doubles and fries, and that would be my charcuterie board.
Speaker 2: Whitney Mason, michaela are together getting ready for the party.
Speaker 2: Whitney mocks to me and they all talk shit because
Speaker 2: they think she is a nine out of ten on
Speaker 2: the Mormon scale.
Speaker 1: Is that good? Yeah? That's good?
Speaker 2: Right, one would think nine out of ten. Like if
Speaker 2: somebody rated my like appearance in nine, I'd be like.
Speaker 1: That's good. Yeah, I would take a nine, like a
Speaker 1: six is not good. I mean, she thinks she's a
Speaker 1: good Mormon, but I don't hold on.
Speaker 2: She thinks herself, Oh oh, she raided herself.
Speaker 1: She rated herself.
Speaker 2: So why do they get the judge what level of
Speaker 2: Mormonism their friends are and can they really judge, especially
Speaker 2: when we know what the ping pongs and the dil
Speaker 2: do's and the.
Speaker 1: Right I mean, I feel like Whitney just sneeze it
Speaker 1: back out of this conversation. When you have a ping
Speaker 1: pong shooting out of your vagina, even if it was
Speaker 1: a fake simulation, I just feel like you have no
Speaker 1: authority at that point. Your credibility is gone. I'm sorry.
Speaker 2: Please don't if you're holding without simulator and near your
Speaker 2: vagina to make it look like a pink pong came out,
Speaker 2: like your authority on what is a good Mormon is
Speaker 2: absolutely gone.
Speaker 1: Just yeah, take a seat.
Speaker 2: But then Whitney and Macy tell Mikaela about the fruity
Speaker 2: cereal story, which, even though I have gotten down this
Speaker 2: rabbit hole and watched a million things about it, I
Speaker 2: have to say I don't fully understand.
Speaker 1: I don't understand it either. I looked it up like
Speaker 1: an urban legend kind of thing, but that didn't even
Speaker 1: make any sense. It had something to do with raspberries.
Speaker 1: I was like, wait, I don't even think that's right.
Speaker 1: So okay, the only thing I can think is like,
Speaker 1: does the does the cereal stick to her vagina? Well?
Speaker 2: I didn't know if it sticked to her vagina or
Speaker 2: if it had something to do with his butt.
Speaker 1: Fruity cereal sex. Okay, Whitney tried, but Whitty tries to
Speaker 1: reenact it and she stands over Macy's face. Right, so
Speaker 1: it must have been on Demmosa had fruity pebbles on
Speaker 1: her vagina and then she sat on his face. So okay.
Speaker 2: So this is according to Bech's dot com, So obviously
Speaker 2: crodabas authority, can you actually change the taste of your vagina?
Speaker 2: Breaking down to me's fruity pebbles sex story. If I
Speaker 2: was in the room when Demi Ingeman told her sexy
Speaker 2: fruity secret pebbles story to Macy and RSV dance queen
Speaker 2: Whitney Levitt, my response would probably have been, how dare
Speaker 2: you say something so controversial yet so brave? I would
Speaker 2: have done a much better job dropping enough tactful, yet
Speaker 2: thinly veiled clues for desperate Americans to understand what the
Speaker 2: kind of allegedly freaky shit happened with my bestie and.
Speaker 1: Her husband the fruity cereal?
Speaker 2: Is it allegedly and not so Mormon sex practice that
Speaker 2: Demi and Brett partook in involving colorful cereal?
Speaker 1: According to Macy's memory.
Speaker 2: This like, see what I'm saying, it's I guess you
Speaker 2: put it on your vagina and then it tastes better, and.
Speaker 1: Then you just see it with those wipes. But then
Speaker 1: I saw an eat the cereal. It's cereal. Ugh oh.
Speaker 2: A trend where a woman could insert fruity pebbles inside
Speaker 2: her huha for a man to eat out like he's
Speaker 2: hungry for the most important meal of the day.
Speaker 1: Now my stomach just turned. Thank you for that. But
Speaker 1: either way. Whitney then decides it's a how do you
Speaker 1: get a bunch of cereal in your vagina? Hall, I
Speaker 1: don't know. You just laid down, you spread your legs
Speaker 1: and you pour it. It would just fall into yours.
Speaker 1: I would have to in I would have to use
Speaker 1: a funnel like I laid down. Important.
Speaker 2: No, I would have to take one little thing and
Speaker 2: stick it in one by one.
Speaker 1: We have a very small vagina.
Speaker 2: Then, yeah, I do, like, there's no way I could
Speaker 2: be pouring anything in there.
Speaker 1: I said, I would have to take it get a
Speaker 1: funnel out of the garage.
Speaker 2: Well that was after I pointed out that I couldn't
Speaker 2: just pour cereal box.
Speaker 1: Then I had to I had to rethink it logistically.
Speaker 2: After this point in time, they decided it's a good
Speaker 2: idea to gift this to her for Gallantine's Day.
Speaker 1: I'll never look at Fruity Pebble's the same again.
Speaker 2: But then everyone finally is at Demi's party for Gallentine's Day.
Speaker 2: Macy asked the entire group if she'll see them Sunday
Speaker 2: for Luca's baby blessing, but half the girls obviously aren't invited.
Speaker 2: Things get awkward Layla says they're not invited because they're
Speaker 2: the sinners. Then to Me finally shows up to her
Speaker 2: own party at seven forty five, Macy, Mchael, and Whitney
Speaker 2: are sitting in a corner while the mom Talk girls
Speaker 2: helped Demi set out presents. They joke that they're the
Speaker 2: mean girls and the plastics of the group, the non
Speaker 2: sinners are the mean girls. Supposedly, Whitney decides this is
Speaker 2: the moment to give to me her gift. Demi opens
Speaker 2: the present in front of the other mom taught girls
Speaker 2: and they all laugh, but she doesn't.
Speaker 1: That part made no sense to me. I love this
Speaker 1: is classic. I love how she does something shitty to someone.
Speaker 1: That person is mad because she did something shitty to them,
Speaker 1: and she's mad at that person because they're mad at her,
Speaker 1: and she leave the party early. Yeah, she's furious. She
Speaker 1: get pissed. She's like so mad like that to me,
Speaker 1: didn't think her gift was funny or whatever, and so
Speaker 1: she gets mad and she leaves.
Speaker 2: She twists everything, she finds a way to twist it up.
Speaker 2: She should work at Auntie Anne's. Get her shit like
Speaker 2: this lady. I don't know, but she's I mean she
Speaker 2: does kind of win me over sometimes.
Speaker 1: Because I do find her to be good TV.
Speaker 2: Yeah, so it's like she gets a pass because what
Speaker 2: else would they have done. We would have talked about
Speaker 2: what shirting at being in the bra But then the sinners, Demi, Taylor,
Speaker 2: and Jesse and Layla go bowling the same day of
Speaker 2: the baby blessing since they weren't invited. Meanwhile, the rest
Speaker 2: of the girls the Saints are at Luca's baby blessing.
Speaker 2: I would rather be bowling. I would actually rather be
Speaker 2: anywhere than that baby blessing because it was awkward and like,
Speaker 2: I think on the couch it had, you know when
Speaker 2: you like go to your grandma's and it's like got
Speaker 2: plastic over it was.
Speaker 1: There a plastic couch. I don't know that was the
Speaker 1: vibe though, the vibe I was getting.
Speaker 2: And then Zach and his male family members and his
Speaker 2: close friends are the ones who do the blessing. Women
Speaker 2: don't partake in the blessing because it's the men who
Speaker 2: carry the priesthood in the church.
Speaker 1: And then Macy mentions.
Speaker 2: Her birthday trip because there's no better time to plan
Speaker 2: a birthday trip than when everybody's fighting and separated.
Speaker 1: It's perfect. It's perfect timing.
Speaker 2: Everyone's nervous about it since there's an obvious divide in
Speaker 2: the group and there's bound to be drama when they
Speaker 2: spend a whole weekend together.
Speaker 1: Yay.
Speaker 2: And that wraps episode three, so make sure you guys
Speaker 2: keep tuning in to Popping Off and we will recap
Speaker 2: episode four for you next week.
Speaker 1: Yeah. Thanks guys for listening. We appreciate it.
