Sister Wives, Season 19, Episode 5: Put the Shovel Down

Mel & Jill Geek Out

The besties start out the episode on a somber note discussing the passing of Liam Payne (RIP). In book related news, the upcoming release of the fifth book in the Hunger Games universe has been announced and Jill’s dad officially finished Throne of Glass. They finish the opener with a quick discussion of Meri’s fire TikTok and the many, many interviews Christine and Janelle have been doing.

Mel & Jill dive into the aptly named ‘The Year of Release’ episode and discuss Kody’s inability to have relationships with pretty much anyone. The besties are also grossed out by the picture of the placenta - we did not need that TLC. They empathize with Gabriel trying to navigate the rough waters of a difficult relationship with a parent, but pause briefly to feel happy for Meri getting her release. The ladies end the pod by ranting about just how far Kody has fallen, and the weirdness of wanting to film yourself as you cry in a bathroom.

Mel and Jill are best friends who love to enjoy film, tv, books, and more and talk about them together. All opinions are not associated with the content we’re discussing.
