"The Birds and the Bees"
We're joined by Mary Payne Gilbert of the Pink Shade podcast as we all get flippin' whiplash from three very different storylines: Barry and Kim traumatize Lydia and Zac with the grandbaby of all sex talks; Micah is a spineless worm, so the family doubles down on their crusade against Veronica; and Lydia goes wedding dress shopping as a personal insult to Moriah.

"The Secret"
The “are you gay?” cliffhanger fizzles out to nothing; Barry checks Lydia's temperature for baby fever; Moriah goes full manic-mode by planning a move to Montana to convince us of character growth; and Micah’s fight with Veronica spirals so far out that Ethan and Amber have to stay in a hotel to avoid the fallout. It's peak Plathville, and we're here to point out every hypocritical moment, as usual.

"Fit for TV: The Reality of the Biggest Loser (2025)"
This new Netflix doc rips the curtain back on The Biggest Loser, which is even more toxic than we remembered. Between Bob and Jillian’s “tough love” cruelty, starvation disguised as fitness, and contestants pushed past the brink - it’s a masterclass in how reality TV can wreck lives for ratings. But even for all its critique, this doc still can't resist servicing up a fresh side of hypocrisy by stigmatizing GLP-1s. We've got opinions, so buckle up.

"The Proposal"
Sparks fly and grass is set ablaze when Ethan, Micah, and Veronica attempt to turn proposal day into a full-blown Zac roast. Barry plays puppeteer; Moriah lurks on the sidelines before running away from more of her problems; and the “grilling” from Ethan and Micah gets so weird for Zac, it makes us wonder if the Plaths are even capable of having a healthy conversation.

"The Cabin in the Woods"
Ethan introduces Teegan to every single person in his hometown as she makes her Cairo debut, and unfortunately, she fits right in. Kim rolls out her finest passive aggression gift that is all quilt, zero guilt; Ethan and Lydia have a farm-side sibling therapy session that's just toxic masculinity veiled as concern; and we're living for Veronica's shade with no end in sight.

"The Face-Off"
In this week’s episode, we watch Micah and Moriah drink their feelings at brunch just like their mom taught them...and speak of the devil! Kim tries to squeeze out sympathy for her (most recent) DUI, but we're not buying. Lydia’s home is held together by Post-it Notes, and Ethan and Isaac tag-team some major jerk energy at the most uncomfortable family dinner since...last week. Oh, and Micah's not at a Coldplay concert, but he's definitely cheating on Veronica.

"The Boyfriend"
New season; same dysfunction - the Plaths are back and somehow messier than ever. In the Season 7 premiere, Kim and Ethan are miraculously besties now that Olivia’s out of the picture. Lydia introduces her new man Zac, and Ethan is getting a "shotgun wedding" vibe from the start. Moriah’s caught between a wig and a hard place while beefing with Veronica and writing apology letters that might as well have been scribbled in glitter glue. Isaac brings his girlfriend Kaylynn into the chaos, and Veronica introduces us to her new friend "Becky" who’s definitely not Olivia in disguise (wink).

"WeWork: The Making and Breaking of a $46 Billion Unicorn"
We take a trip down memory lane into the overpriced, overhyped fever dream that was WeWork. It’s the story of Adam Neumann: part CEO, part cult leader, part megalomaniac who thinks renting desks can heal the world. We cover the delusional business plans of real estate disguised as tech, SoftBank’s actions of dumping gasoline on the dumpster fire, and of course, Rebekah Paltrow Neumann's attempts to spiritually rebrand education.
Here’s the surprising twist: Corey has worked on-site at a WeWork event and he shares firsthand accounts of what it was like. He survived the weird startup vibes and lives to tell the tale of the inflated egos, yucky energy, and overzealous C-suite brainwashing.

"The Love Bomb & The Reckoning"
This week, we consider becoming grifters after a look into Amazon Prime’s 2-part docuseries "RomCon: Who the F**k is Jason Porter?" - a masterclass in love bombing, life coaching scams, and suburban con artistry. We examine Heather’s whirlwind romance-turned-true-crime saga: from meet-cute to financial fraud, with pit stops at fake Italian vacations, shady business moves, and a suspicious amount of missing jewelry. We break down Jason’s playbook of manipulation, the women who tried to warn each other, and the trail of lies that ends in court cases and journalist exposés.

"Season 2 Reunion"
This week, we recap the Season 2 reunion episode, and let’s just say: the drama flowed faster than Mikayla’s coffee enemas. Demi ghosts the group (but not the group chat), Whitney burns bridges to defend her, and Jessi gets thrown under multiple buses—some driven by Marciano, some by TikTok.
We unpack it all: from #MomTok infighting and #DadTok trauma reveals, to JZ Styles color styling warfare and an incredibly awkward Dancing With the Stars reveal. There’s accountability theater, Mormon loophole logic, and enough passive aggression to fill an entire Relief Society potluck.

"Ship Happens"
Anchors aweigh and plumbing in disarray! This week, we recap Netflix’s Trainwreck: Poop Cruise—the story of the Carnival Triumph, aka the floating porta-potty that gave new meaning to “all-inclusive.”
We walk through every septic twist of the eight-day nightmare: failed systems, nonexistent plans, PR spin that smelled worse than the ship, and passengers praying over bagged poop. From the moment the engine failed to the glorious tugboat rescue, we break down how this luxury vacation turned into a literal hot mess.

"Delusion at Depth"
This week, we take a pressurized plunge into Netflix’s documentary about the Titan submersible. We’re talking questionable engineering, billionaire thrill-seekers, and a CEO who treated safety regulations like a personal insult.
We unpack the red flags that were waving harder than the ocean currents, the media circus that followed, and how this became the most predictable tragedy no one stopped. Was it hubris? Was it capitalism? Was it a Logitech controller? Yes.
Buckle up—we’re going 12,500 feet under, but don’t worry, our hull integrity is fully intact.

"Whoooo Killed Kathleen?"
We're flapping our wings into the The Staircase and the infamous Owl Theory - yes, the one where a random bird is the prime suspect in Kathleen Peterson’s death. We break down the bird facts, the suspicious feathers, and discuss how this theory somehow makes more sense than anything Michael Peterson said under oath.

From influencer feuds to behind-the-scenes chaos in the LDS-adjacent #MomTok world, we break down every messy moment and major plot point.
