Episode 145 - Ahoy, Mate! 2:41:56

Play Pause

6d ago2:41:56

2:41:56

The Brood is going international! We've reached the travel specials and the first destination is Scotland and Ireland. This episode is complete with a tin whistle overhaul of the theme song. If you guessed that you would get Duggar Time and a lot of "what do you mean we?", you'd be correct. Lego Hair has the buffoonery dialed up since they're in an…

Episode 144 - The Duggar Male System 2:15:14

13d ago2:15:14

2:15:14

It's double-length episode time! TLC has put together another round of Q&A, pulling questions from folks on video and twitter. We do have to question their choice of interview area setup. They put up a background and then proceeded to film with only half of it in the shot. With the family taking a barrage of questions about how they operate, we get…

Episode 143 - You Exposer, Backslidden, Ineffective Christian You! 2:07:47

20d ago2:07:47

2:07:47

We found the Discovery Channel commercial episode. We join the Duggars, alongside other Discovery personnel volunteering with Habitat for Humanity. We saw a good amount of inappropriate attire. I'm not sure when OSHA approved flippy floppies as construction zone footwear. It wasn't all just swinging hammers, we watched a large chunk of the family r…

Episode 142 - Chili Pie is Out of the Question 1:58:46

27d ago1:58:46

1:58:46

There's lots of Duggars to choose to center an episode around, yet who got picked? Our favorite duo? No. The Duggirls? No. We got an episode focusing on Pest and Lego Hair. Cringe warning is advised. We watch Pest try to put together a grill and then use it to teach life lessons. For Lego Hair's birthday Cannon takes him to get an allergy test and,…

Episode 141 - It's Like Lemon Pepper! But Make it Violin! 2:38:31

1M ago2:38:31

2:38:31

We get the full Fundie Family Experience this week. It's a Bates-Duggars event. Some kids get to fiddlin'. Some participate in Whitney's bloodsport of choice:4-square. The dads get to pat each other on the back for having so many kids. We watch a very red-faced Bates boy get so uncomfortable when he gets to sit next to a young woman that's not in h…

Episode 140 - Show Me Handsome! 2:25:00

1M ago2:25:00

2:25:00

Watch as Lego forgets to send the dress code memo to the rest of the family at a "Christian media event." We get to watch Duggar Time happen and the impact it has on the crew. The brood rolls into the Georgia Aquarium and get a meet n' greet with a couple of penguins. We get a multitude of Jinger faces and watch Cannon get her engine revved up for …

Episode 139 - We Got Here by Talking About Soft Foods 2:35:30

2M ago2:35:30

2:35:30

Whoa! The storied Duggar moments were on deck in this episode. Cannon's celebrity crush just invited the brood to come to HIS church in Atlanta. While they were rehearsing, we witnessed "The Fall"! Jason fell into the orchestra pit, and we get a clear view of why Jackson is such a sweet, thoughtful child. We proceed to watch Cannon, just out puttin…

Episode 138 - Does He Need a Towel to Clean Up After That? 2:15:01

2M ago2:15:01

2:15:01

Cannon really had to clean up her rep these last couple episodes. She can't have us thinking that she doesn't do anything. She was reading prenap stories and now we watch her doing homeschool with the Little Ones. The pop-up did say that Jessa helps, "occasionally." Sure, Jan. It’s ATI Conference time! We get a flash of the Lost Boys at Alert Cadet…

Episode 137 - He's Holding Onto His Dignity For Dear Life 2:13:06

2M ago2:13:06

2:13:06

Get your sleeping bag ready, 'cause the gang is camping out in front of the house. I hope there's fire extinguisher in the area because Lego Hair is cooking hot dogs and chicken on the grill. Joe was the VIP in this episode. Setting up the tent while Lego stood there uselessly. Coordinating a lost boys' painting project. He's getting a little light…

Episode 136 - It's an IBLP Anthem! 2:21:49

2M ago2:21:49

2:21:49

TLC was thoughtful this time and didn't make us sit through more footage of the gang driving for 20 hours! We fast forward to them at Niagara Falls. They all talked about how beautiful it was, but there were rainbows everywhere (gasp)! The older ones got to ride a jet boat while the little ones got to go fishing and stay dry. Appropriate for a show…

Episode 135 - It's S-O-N...like Jesus. 2:26:20

3M ago2:26:20

2:26:20

On location at the TTM, Lego Hair says the quiet part loud when he says that "We" are gonna start a large scale yard project, and then proceeds to do nothing to help complete it. You know it's a shitshow when the production crew has to step to try and help them finish. We get treated to another montage of Famy attempting to cook and the fam celebra…

Episode 134 - Leave Me Alone, Alligator! 2:45:33

3M ago2:45:33

2:45:33

The Duggars have such a busy day. Good Morning America is there to watch the, and I quote, "barely controlled chaos." Josie has to go visit the doc, and we meet the author of "Before You Meet Prince Charming". It's a good thing these kids don't have...real school to work around. In our dig we explore, Sarah Mally, the author of the aforementioned b…

Episode 133 - Junk Scuffle 2:18:35

3M ago2:18:35

2:18:35

No soft opens in this episode, we hard cut to the brood in the Big Apple. We get a total callback to a previous episode while watching Lego struggle to function in a public transit setting. Have you ever wanted to see too many people serve in a very small soup kitchen? Well, you're in luck. In our Dig, we explore more of the absolute drivel that Bi…

Episode 132 - I Can See Yo' Back Skin 2:25:28

3M ago2:25:28

2:25:28

We watch the brood run amok in a Kiddie Casino. The tokens were flowing, the cheap pizza was getting devoured, and we see the Dancing King use hard-earned tickets to buy something for Hannie. Super Sweet gesture. We watch 2 of the boys, and Grandma get equipped with new bikes. In our Dig, we take a look at a book written about the early days of Bil…

Episode 131 - There's No Froggin' Way 2:31:35

4M ago2:31:35

2:31:35

Welcome to the triumphant return of Dr. Diligence D.D.S! Pest and Joe can't seem to handle the one thing asked of them, before THEIR medical procedure. We then watch, yet again, as Lego tries to bend the rules. He is swiftly shutdown by our new favorite side character of the series. It is so satisfying to watch someone else who will not give in to …

Episode 130 - She Let the Pickle Out of the Jar 2:20:09

4M ago2:20:09

2:20:09

Josie and a random smattering of Duggars head back to Little Rock for a check-up. This, of course, leaves Jessa in charge. Lego Hair was there... and that's the extent of how much he brings to the table in these situations. In our Dig, we explore how this group loves to repackage parentification, into something the children "beg" to do. They PR spi…

Episode 129 - AND I'M ALXIS BRYER!!! 2:22:01

4M ago2:22:01

2:22:01

Watch as the Duggar Boys destroy an innocent taco restaurant. Lego Hair decides to repeatedly tell us the cliff's notes of this episode. "Josh bought a new car lot. It used to be an old taco restaurant". The Dancing King definitely took center stage. Lego Hair bringing a 6-year-old to participate in a major commercial demolition was not as producti…

Episode 128 - Church in the Front, Let's Not Talk About the Back 2:04:39

4M ago2:04:39

2:04:39

Snow Warning! We watch as the TTM is blanketed with 2 feet of snow! We can add to the Duggars Recipe Box with their showcase of "Snow Ice Cream". This is a completely foreign concept to a good ole Arizona couple like us. In our Dig, we get into a further examination of Jingy V's book. We take a hard look into how what-should-have-been a memoir to r…

Episode 127 - M'Jildred is the New J'Balloon Man 2:20:34

5M ago2:20:34

2:20:34

If there's anything that we should expect out of children it's that they need to carry their weight and contribute to their family's finances. Every kid with a J name within the T.T.M. got rounded up to put in a little elbow grease. Send your kids to clean up a filthy residence you just bought? Check! Have your child grabbing last month's meatloaf?…

Episode 126 - Your Son Just Woke Up from his Nap! 1:56:08

5M ago1:56:08

1:56:08

We got a Special, Y'all! We get to see Anna have a baby, and Pest take a nap, give advice nobody wants, and overall be annoying. They should've title this episode "First REAL Duggar Grandchild" because this one is a boy. Move over, Mackynzie! We got to see Hannie be in the big girl's club. And get ready because the amount of Smug in this episode is…

Episode 125 - He's Praying at a 5th Grade Level 2:28:30

5M ago2:28:30

2:28:30

Those Duggars invade Colorado Springs to speak at Focus on the Family. We get more examples of how, even on the road, the Duggirls have to take care of, well…. everything. We watch Pest really provide for his pregnant wife by taking care of the duffel AND the backpack while his expecting wife pushes the luggage cart that is full to the brim. In our…

5M ago2:17:16

2:17:16

So Lego is taking Cannon to El Salvador for the first time. She decides to trim up that lego hair piece before they go. What are the kids gonna do with the parents gone? Well, the same as they always do : everything. In our Dig, we explore Mary Pride's book, "The Way Home:Beyond Feminism Back to Reality". The book that is credited with sparking the…

Episode 123 - Don't Sack Talk Me 1:37:37

1:37:37

The Brood (minus Josie and Cannon) make their way to go skiing. We get the triumphant return of "Buy Used Save the Difference", we watch the kids work with some very patient ski instructors, and Lego's buffoon-ery is on absolute display. He must not understand, because when he doesn't listen and is overbearing at home, Cannon looks at him sweetly a…

Episode 122 - Like A Single 2:07:16

6M ago2:07:16

2:07:16

The Bates are back, baby! We are able to experience this mass of khakis and denim skirts through the eyes of the Duggar's house guest. She talks about how she can't tell some of them apart. Same, sister! With that many little kids, germs course through so many of them. I can only imagine the amount of uncovered coughing going on. In our Dig, we tak…

Episode 121 - Springdale Drift 2:23:50

6M ago2:23:50

2:23:50

**This episode ALSO contains more Pest than is recommended for listening consumption. Digger discretion is still advised. ** This time he's pretending to be a big boss man. In typical Duggar fashion we get a horrible use of time and preparation so they're scrambling. The clan needs to go to city officials to see if they can re-zone a new car lot an…

Episode 120 - Girrrl, You ARE the Red Flag 1:51:20

6M ago1:51:20

Content Warning ***this episode had way too much Pest for anyone's consumption. Digger discretion is advised*** We get to see the "ginder" of Pest and Anna's next creation. We watch as Lego Hair is annoying, nothing new there. And Cannon drains all of the toner in the family's office copier, in order to print out two giant color pictures of the mal…

Episode 119 - Billy G-String 2:14:40

7M ago2:14:40

2:14:40

I'm really not sure how Anna came up with the most creative idea...she invited the stateside Duggars over for dinner. We watch the crew at the Pest Nest and we see the Lost Boys menacing a kitty. It was too real for Mildred. We see the mission part of the Brood make their way back to the States in time to celebrate Josie's first birthday. In our Di…

Episode 114 - Gross. Moving on. 1:54:53

9M ago1:54:53

Michelle gives us a whole bunch of "What Do You Mean, We?" energy in this episode, as she gets to ditch the fam and spend the day recording an audio version of their book. And we see a whole segment of Duggars at a fish fry, yet don't get any "Duggars Dine Out" square. It's a shame. ***Trigger Warning : This Dig contains segments where we talk abou…

Episode 113 - Here Comes the Deacon with a Chair! 2:27:06

9M ago2:27:06

2:27:06

Its understandable that Cannon doesn't get super excited about the men in her life. Lego Hair leaves much to be desired.

We have arrived at the end of Season 4! Its been a ride with this brood. The last episode of the season is a "special" that has us watching some Duggar Child birthdays (except for one), a ridiculous amount of Pest content, and listen to Whitney and I stress out, big time due to them still planning a birthday party less than 8 hours before its suppo…

12M ago1:56:30

1:56:30

As with a handful of the recent episodes, this episode has way too much Pest. We watch the Dug-girls do a decent job of sewing...but showing some folks that really do not care about that. Pest serves up some word salad. In our Dig, we look at Secular Humanism and why IBLP calls everything that makes them uncomfortable that. Whitney puts a whole ful…

For a change of pace, Michelle is taking it easy and letting the Dug-girls take care of the housework...which is what she does every other time, all the time. It’s a pretty innocuous episode but had too much Pest. In the Dig, we explore Tia Levings and her book, "A Well Trained Wife". It’s a terrifying look at what women in high control religions h…

It affects millions of lives every single day. I am battli…
