I will never believe that the legal divorce was Meri’s idea. You could see in her eyes how heart broken she was. You’re 100% correct, she was manipulated by both Kody and Robyn, and the cruelest part is she was then stuck there, for years, watching them together. It honestly must have tortured her.
Especially when we learn from Meri that there was a list of things she had to meet and when she met them, there was another list. I bet this was on an early list! And it must have tortured her but who allows themselves to be in that torment for a decade (at least?). She was held captive. And the fact she was strung along and learning how he speaks to her on camera. What hope was she running off of? For all that, she is not a victim. She should have ran years ago but "chose to stay" as she stated. She chose the torment versus moving on.
If a wedding band was giving Meri "claim" to him & it prompted King Kotex to melt it down, without a doubt he pushed for the legal divorce. IMO he probably started making comments about wanting a divorce long before Robyn. I'm assuming he pitched it as being equal to all wives idk. I'm just sure if a ring was too much for him, no way would he remain legally bound to her.
I thought it was crazy when Kody said Robyn is the easiest for to the kids to talk to out of all the moms. We have seen exactly how not true that is in the last few episodes. There is no way the kids would make fun of Robyn the way they make fun of Christine and Janelle. I mean, Hunter walked up to Janelle and yelled “hi Mama!” As a full grown man.
Robyn’s spirit baby ROFL! The power couple out on a date: it’s a good thing they find each other so fascinating because they are two of the most boring people I have ever had to endure ‘eavesdropping’ on. Lol. Yikes
I thought their date was cringey as well. This is mean but observing the way that Kody looked, I thought how could any woman be attracted to him. He just looks crazy. I also don’t see Robyn as the type of woman that would inspire dozens of men to want to be pursue her.
Oh, no that isn't mean at all. I said something even worse to somebody on Facebook. I said that Robyn's ring was more like a dog collar, because Kody was marking his territory. I'm going to catch crap for that, but I don't care. We all know she's a you know what anyway, so calling the ring a dog collar is appropriate.
Robyn stole her ex-husband from her sister. Preston was dating Fawn, and Robyn got jealous. I heard somewhere the other day that Fawn is the favorite wife in her relationship.
If your church experience is all about men hitting on women, you’re in the wrong church. I’ve gone to church my whole life and while sometimes people DO meet,date and fall in love, it’s by chance and not a priority. That whole conversation weirded me out.
Too much Christmas STUFF to catch you live but I’m so happy I can watch later. I have so much frustrated, loud swearing about those two emotional vampires. 🤬
I think it's hilarious that Kody left the church over them trying to "control" his hair 🤣🤣🤣. He doesn't want to be controlled by anyone and wants to be the pretty pony in the pasture 🤮 sad thing is that I wonder if this is one of the reasons that all of the family members ended up leaving the church as well. Kody always wanted to be the only leader with no one questioning his leadership and not having any true responsibility.
Ok, GenXers. This is hilarious!!! You're just trying to get your 💩 done and technology wants to be your nemesis. 🤣🤣🤣 in walks the kids to just handle business. I LOVE it. Great looking kiddos.
How sad and unhealthy is the Kody-family? Keeping the kids like prisoners,only feels happy by buying stuff?.It can only have a bad ending. Is TLC in for that,maybe waiting for a real drama?. Its so weird and sick.
If you go back to the beginning the “story” was they had never seen each other until they met at the party Kody & Meri were at so this whole story line is off ! I was like ok so you’ve lied to the OG3 all these years because you had a connection at church “before” you were at that party poor Meri trying to pull one over on Janelle and the very pregnant Christine but she was the fooled one in this🙄
I could be wrong but my perspective is Kody is acting weird and cringey on purpose for a shock value to keep the audience watching. I not saying it would be a difficult task for Kody to exaggerate his delusions and odd behavior. Demeaning and lowering one standards for money is for some people.
I wish you would just go UA-cam and post TikToc separately. There are so many of us that don’t do TikToc. We can’t see your chat, we can’t do superchats or chat with others. It’s really frustrating when you respond to people that YT people cannot see. Anyway, despite that I really adore you both, and I think you’re doing a great job despite what I said above. Much love to you both and please don’t take my earlier comment as “hate” or being mean. ❤
I hear ya! We are still figuring out this whole UA-cam thing. Appreciate the love and the kind words. People who can’t make the live on TikTok ask we repost here. We are figuring it out. We’ve gone live on TikTok because that is where we have the larger following. Our UA-cam is growing however and I’m leaning towards doing our live recaps on this platform instead. Everything about UA-cam is so much friendlier than TikTok. It was a necessary way to transition to UA-cam.
Over 90 children?!?! And probably no responsibility to financially support them or care for them as a true father. And the future incestual situations that may occur are disturbing. That's a lot of people to try and avoid while finding a spouse
I miss the hold me stage! My granddaughter 11, didn’t like constant holding, but the boys, 6, and 8 loved to be held and sing, and play with me. Loved it! Enjoy it!
In the scenes where Christines sitting and eating and the whole spot thing, look beyond. I think its Annie , sitting alone facing the same direction with her tray if food. Looking displeased.
I would bet money family participation and repairing family relationships were on Meri's list. If you watch the whole series those two things are kind of a theme when kody talks to Meri from around season 2 forward.
The lists sound sad. I think back through the years and can see how different things were on the lists. Meri did mentioned in the later seasons that Kody wanted her to work on her relationships with the children.
In early seasons, Robyn said that she didn't care what her future husband looked like, as long as he took care of her children. Does the AUB encourage or discourage physical attraction in marriage? Or is it a matter of a person's spouse is chosen so appearances are an afterthought?
Do you think Robyn is trying to find a way to ultimately dump Kody? She can't be happy with Kody and how intense he is? And she would get half his money ( hopefully before he blows it all away?
I personally don’t leave my kids that young but I was full on babysitting younger kids at that age too. So I get it. Their kids weren’t babies at the time.
Sounds like the AUB was heavily influenced by the US military culture or upbringing? It was the military and the 1950’s culture that cared so much about short hair.
@NotestoSelf444 It's okay. Just glad to see you. I hope you're both doing well and Had a great weekend until we watched Kidneys & Liebrows. I want to break the TV🤮
It’s very distracting to view all the people joining and you won’t ever catch up to the comments if you get more popular..you have to get your mijkes worked out .. get individual mijes you pin on your shirt. so you can get the sound right befor you come online … you’re too loud your hubby is to quiet and those two styles don’t work with the mikes your using
Yeah, it's distracting with all the thanking each individual person that joins and reading every single comment. Just pick and choose questions to read, not every single comment or question.
We go Live every Monday evening on TikTok to recap the latest show. We don’t have a schedule to go live on UA-cam yet. In January we will start going live at regular times here. Thank you for inquiring. We appreciate you watching.

Kody and Robyn were probably making passive comments stating how it would help the family if Robyn was the legal wife.

I appreciate your background information on polygamy and the culture. I would never understand the Browns without it.
Thank you. I appreciate the feedback & the support

There is no way the kids would make fun of Robyn the way they make fun of Christine and Janelle. I mean, Hunter walked up to Janelle and yelled “hi Mama!” As a full grown man.
Yea they just don’t have the same relationship at all. Christine genuinely loves all the kids as her own. Not so much from the other wife
Robyn’s spirit baby ROFL! The power couple out on a date: it’s a good thing they find each other so fascinating because they are two of the most boring people I have ever had to endure ‘eavesdropping’ on. Lol. Yikes
Kody and Robyn are making drama from nothing. They think it's going to get them another season, but we want them gone!!
Christine and David are showing the way to properly introduce their two families and blend. As opposed to how Robin came into the family
Great point. I love that Christine finds anyway to celebrate
The wives were basically told that he wanted to marry her. They didn't really discuss it. You can see their reactions in past interviews. It was sad
I think that Robyn’s girls are going to need a lot of therapy eventually.
Honestly we all do after leaving
Great job pushing thru difficulties, we get it and understand, keep it up, you'll be old pros soon
Thank you so much! 🥰
Love your content, keep up the good work you two are doing great
Thank you 🥰 This audio is killing me
Don’t worry about the sound it is so amazing that you are talking to us .❤️❤️❤️
Thank you 🙏🏻. I was so frustrated
I honestly think Robyn will be gone after the money dries up
Cory & I differ on this one.
I thought their date was cringey as well. This is mean but observing the way that Kody looked, I thought how could any woman be attracted to him. He just looks crazy. I also don’t see Robyn as the type of woman that would inspire dozens of men to want to be pursue her.

I love that! Thank you & Welcome. She is amazing
Same
Kody values his hair more than anything.
Too much Christmas STUFF to catch you live but I’m so happy I can watch later. I have so much frustrated, loud swearing about those two emotional vampires. 🤬

Your projection is spot on with Robyn. Your views help make sense of the brown chaos.
Thank you 🥰

I tend to agree with thins line of thinking. He has to keep the show relevant
People seem to forget that Solomon is just 1 year younger than Truely.,, So he would have been 11 at that time
@@barbaramay5048 yea that’s not a baby. Definitely in my opinion not old enough to be left alone but also not a baby
You mentioned that Sol and Ari were two years apart, but they’re actually just over four years apart in age
Oh wow that’s so close. I had no idea

Awe that’s sweet. My boys have been snugglier longer too. The girls not as much. So I soak it up while I can get it.
@ definitely precious memories!
I missed the other live. Kody is controlling their lives. I bet they can’t go for a walk by themselves.
A soft cover on his mic might help with the echo.
In the scenes where Christines sitting and eating and the whole spot thing, look beyond. I think its Annie , sitting alone facing the same direction with her tray if food. Looking displeased.
Kody and Robyn are very forced and awkward
I would bet money family participation and repairing family relationships were on Meri's list. If you watch the whole series those two things are kind of a theme when kody talks to Meri from around season 2 forward.
I totally agree!
Watching Sister Wives is torturous for us too. That's why I like to follow your commentary. Can't stand Kody and Robyn.
It really is torture. 😩 Thank you
For what it's worth, I noticed Robyn's new wedding set about a yr ago.....
The lists sound sad. I think back through the years and can see how different things were on the lists. Meri did mentioned in the later seasons that Kody wanted her to work on her relationships with the children.
It seems that he’s just not putting the work in & wanted everyone else to
In early seasons, Robyn said that she didn't care what her future husband looked like, as long as he took care of her children. Does the AUB encourage or discourage physical attraction in marriage? Or is it a matter of a person's spouse is chosen so appearances are an afterthought?
Yea appearances are mostly an after thought. It’s nice to have that attraction but that isn’t usually the main goal.
Thank you!
Do you think Robyn is trying to find a way to ultimately dump Kody? She can't be happy with Kody and how intense he is? And she would get half his money ( hopefully before he blows it all away?
I don’t think she will leave but I could be wrong. Cory thinks she absolutely will the second she can
@@NotestoSelf444if she can figure out a way to financially support herself
What was the “reward” if you did complete the lists?
Your husband would love you
Solomon would be 11 or 12 depending on when it was filmed...legally able to stay home alone for a couple hours with his younger sister
I personally don’t leave my kids that young but I was full on babysitting younger kids at that age too. So I get it. Their kids weren’t babies at the time.
Heyyyyy missed u guys over here
I’m just so frustrated with our audio I almost didn’t post. So I apologize
Sounds like the AUB was heavily influenced by the US military culture or upbringing? It was the military and the 1950’s culture that cared so much about short hair.
I never thought about that aspect. I’m curious if that does play. I’ll bet it has some influence for sure.
Oh my gosh, such a handsome kid you’ve got!
Haha thank you! He 6’9” too. The kid is huge.
Mel, you sound fine now. Cory, I believe you need to move the mike closer--echos more and voice lower when farther away
It’s so frustrating. Thank you for that feedback.
Well done for persevering! Could you ask Sam and Melissa what their set up is as they sit next to each other? Good luck
Yes I did and Melissa is so sweet and sent me their set up. We’ve ordered the equipment. They are the best
It would be interesting to track what they say in response to things you guys say. Maybe they read the comments too.
Oh to be a fly on every tacky picture, on every wall in their house.
😂😂 I’ve not really given it much thought. I’ll bet they are use to being critiqued by now.
He is not echoing...she is echoing
Maybe sam and Melissa can help you with the sound since they also are two and used to it
Thank you! I just emailed them. I’m seriously going crazy trying to figure out this audio
It's possible both mics are picking up your voice that causes the echo.
Yea they are compatible to be in the same area. We are getting new ones.
Watching replay
Thank you. I apologize in advance for the audio
Good morning 😊 almost 4:30 am on the west coast of Canada
Good morning! I hope you guys aren’t freezing up there!
@NotestoSelf444 nooo all beautiful! I just got out of the outdoor pool from my swim!
Kody has probably had the same number for forever. Meri probably gave them Kody's number. Also, Robyn was once very close to the current prophet.
Hey Cory & Melanie
Hey there. Sorry about our audio on this. It’s exhausting
🤗
@NotestoSelf444 It's okay. Just glad to see you. I hope you're both doing well and Had a great weekend until we watched Kidneys & Liebrows. I want to break the TV🤮
Cory’s mic sound is great but you’re very echoey. I think you sit closer to your mic as well and that might make a difference
I was so frustrated about the mics. I hope we’ve fixed it now.
Rewatching ❣️
Thank you
You still have echo sound
You guys probably need to be in separate rooms. Another home podcast channel does that as well
Melanie is echoing but Corey is not
Yea it’s so exhausting trying to figure out audio out.
@@NotestoSelf444no worries and love to you. Just fyis 😊
Headphones is what you need
You might just have to sit in different rooms with a split screen.
I know 😭. I think I’ve figured it out. It’s the brand of mic we have.
Did Robyn finish college?
I have no idea.
Was Robyn and Preston Sealed?
Did R and P get a release?
Were R and K sealed
No. They could not be sealed because she was pregnant when they got married.
Does anybody remember the old TV series Battlestar Galactica? Sealing is how they spoke of marriage too. I just now thought of that.
No they weren’t.
I'm curious about why they never had another wife considering that they were in the faith and community and it seemed to be SOOOO important to Robyn
I can't read any of your screen 😭
Yea I don’t like those words up there at all. We won’t be doing that again
3:44 better
David and Christine stuff is boring to watch personally
one of the episode i just bypass..it is so pretentious and cringy
It’s very distracting to view all the people joining and you won’t ever catch up to the comments if you get more popular..you have to get your mijkes worked out .. get individual mijes you pin on your shirt. so you can get the sound right befor you come online … you’re too loud your hubby is to quiet and those two styles don’t work with the mikes your using
