Digging Up the Duggars

We are excited to be back!  We are dishing some updates on our totally human 17 year old child, Mildred; and where we've been this week.  The episode has a lot of Smug Pest, which is, arguably, one of my least favorite Pests.  We see Famey's very era-appropriate wardrobe and we get to know her processing man slice.   In the deep dive we get a Duggar-adjacent look at why "dating...

We take a trip back in time to Pest/Anna's honeymoon.  Don't let the beautiful scenery fool you, it gets creepy.   We take a trip to a chophouse, explore a 4-bedroom beach house, and watch a very awkward "sleep with the sharks".  Sleeping on a walkway was not enough action to keep Josh interested.   In a mildly awkward deep dive, we explore headlamps, the color of wine, an...

Welcome Back!  First episode of the New Year!  We watch the family dealing with Grandpa Duggars passing.  We uncover some personal feelings on childhood anxiety and awkward funerals.   In the Deep Dive, we explore Lego Hair when he was freshly molded.  Fascinating views on Daddy issues, Sins of the Father, and potential Bingo Cards!!! Feel Free to buy us a pickle...or a &n...

Surprise Episode!!!  We called this a Little One, but it was pretty normal length.  Due to the 'Rona, we decided to record while I had more time off than I've ever had.  We started by going through the old Discovery Episode of Christmas Duggars that's only 8 minutes long.  It was a blast from the past, no Tater Tot Mansion, baby Jackson, less kids!   In, a holiday Dee...

It's Bates vs. Duggar!  Who can be less off putting?  Who might, under certain circumstances, let their children think about dancing?  Who will call out the (not really) Banana Cake?  We explore the aftermath of that crazy ice storm.  The Bates come to save the day.  Michelle says she loves it because they do everything for her...whats the difference?  Your kids...

See! Duggars on Ice! (Mel Brooks reference)  Arkansas experienced an awful ice storm that was very destructive.  The Duggars dealt with 6+ days of no electricity.  Sheds destroyed.  Generators working overtime.  We're glad they made it through and were able to sled on old LH campaign signs. The Deep Dive tackles Lego Hair and his participation in governance.   We...

Join us as some of the clan go to New York to be on the view. The other half plan and execute a surprise for their parents. There’s a lot of attention given to television in the episode.

Deja Vu in this week's episode.  We've seen this kid be born already.   Episode is a little of a repeat, but join us in the Deep Dive for the different tiers of Umbrellas of Protection.  Be prepared to be scared into submission by some bone chilling statements.  Tim seems to be a reference machine this episode, and our streak of episodes without Whitney crying is back down...

Welcome to the Season Finale! We have a double length episode where Baby Cannon goes blasting off again!  We were this close to getting another Duggar named Juicy Fruit.  It's such a missed opportunity.

Join us, this week, where Tim found the title he has always aspired to - Selfish Piñata.  We watch the boys beat up Wall-e with a stick, while Jinger learns to drive.  LH could barely get the sentence out that its Michelle's birthday and it feels like her birthday is so ancillary that they don't really do or say much.  Definitely a filler episode, but, in the deep dive Whitney gets...
