Sister Sh*t
Jam Jam Night Night
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Two sisters, zero filter. Get ready for an hour of unfiltered banter that feels more like eavesdropping on your funniest friends than a polished podcast.
From cousins weekend in Jacksonville, complete with “jam jam night night,” topless plant-watering, and dancing on benches in a retirement community, to a truly unsettling Uber ride, the family stories come fast (and a little unhinged).
But the real centerpiece is reality TV. The sisters dive into their current obsession, Welcome to Plathville, introduce their new tradition of “Survivor Sundays” (equal parts sandwiches and strategy), and revisit their failed Deal or No Deal Island audition. Along the way, they unpack how reality TV ethics have shifted since the early 2000s—what once passed as entertainment now reads very differently.
With plenty of laughter, questionable quotes, and TV hot takes, this episode is equal parts nostalgia and nonsense. What reality show should we binge next?

Apologies and Interruptions
Speaker 3hello hi, welcome to sister shit I'm caroline meredith and happy tuesday tuesday um, I have an apology for you, me, yes, because I listened to last week's episode and I was on one. I talked so much, I talked over you 90 of the podcast. I interrupted you, which y'all are probably thinking. How is that different than any other episode?
Speaker 2No, that's why I'm laughing, because I literally did not notice.
Speaker 3I just felt like I was listening to it. Like my gosh. I know that I do this, but like on this episode, it's aggressive and like we might lose some listeners. Oh my gosh, because I was really hyped up about beauty standards.
Speaker 2I don't feel like you were that hyped up.
Speaker 3I just interrupted you a lot, so I'm going to be very mindful. I'm going to try, are you? Do you doubt me?
Speaker 2I'm just it's funny because I genuinely didn't even notice.
Speaker 3Well, we had a friend tell us that she doesn't listen to our podcast because it's it's.
Speaker 2We talk over each other too much.
Speaker 3Yes, that it's too much for like chaotic.
Speaker 2So it was like, and she was trying to be so nice, she was like I don't listen, I'm sorry, I just like can't really like handle the like talking at the same time. It's like it's fair.
Speaker 3So I'm going to try my best to not interrupt you. Okay, I actually one time, one time, I had a friend tell me like she like called and was like what do you think of this girl? And I was like she's fine, like she's nice, whatever, you know, whatever. And she was like she's an interrupter. I was like okay, yeah, you're right, I've never thought about that before, but like what a wild category to put someone in.
Speaker 2I'm also like is anyone saying that about me?
Speaker 3because sometimes I genuinely get so excited and I interrupt you know what my thing is is I stutter, not like official, like I've never had, like a like a speech impediment situation, but like when I'm getting doing it right now, when I can't even tell you how many times I've asked you are you having a stroke? I know, and I think like it's when I'm telling a story or when I think maybe my, like, my you're you talk before you process the thought. Yeah.
Speaker 2Which I was going to say. That's my. One of my biggest things I'm self-conscious about is that I don't think before I speak. Yeah, Like ever.
Speaker 3Yeah.
Speaker 2It's a problem.
Speaker 3I didn't learn that skill, the thoughts are coming together as the words are coming out of my mouth.
Speaker 2And like Jay is so, so he's so thoughtful before he speaks yeah, he will craft what he's saying before he says it and you can tell that his like wheels are turning before he speaks.
Speaker 3And I am just word vomiting at all times me too and to a fault yeah, but I think I'd be a funnier person if I could tell a story and not stutter my way through it. Same, so anyway.
Speaker 2That's why we have a podcast and they don't, because they would be silent for most of it. That's true, because they're crafting what they're going to say and you and I are just talkers.
Speaker 3We're on the road to a destination unknown.
Speaker 2Okay, Video or something.
Speaker 3I saw one commercial about from Welcome to Plathville, of like this girl introducing her, I think it might have went. Might have gone like a little viral on Instagram, because I was served this clip from TLC, which like the TLC Instagram has never come across my page, not even once they knew who they were serving their ads to.
Speaker 3I saw this clip of a girl and a guy talking about how they're saving their kiss first kiss for their wedding day and I was like I'm in, let's get into it, and, um, he's. I mean it's like just a very, very hard watch, but I like loved every minute and I was like I gotta watch this show so then I go over to your house and you're like okay, I'm watching a new show.
Speaker 2I'm like okay, which mayor? One thing about mayor is that she can get through a TV show. She devours them, which is not bad. I honestly sometimes wish I was more like you, because I am watching like four to six shows right now that I haven't finished, because I'm a very slow watcher. I don't watch enough.
Speaker 3TV. I think that's an okay problem to have I watch so much.
Speaker 2TV. Okay, so if this tells you anything, I started two episodes behind you. Yeah, oh gosh.
Speaker 3This is going to be so telling.
Speaker 2So on the second episode she said you have to start watching this. So I started watching it. It's been through two weeks a week, like maybe 10, two weeks. I am on episode one of season two. There are six episodes in the first season.
Speaker 3Meredith is on probably episode six of season four. Like I have watched, which I don't, they're like 40 minute. How long are they?
Speaker 2they're like 40 to 45 minutes.
Speaker 3But here's my thing when I sit down at night, I will, I will watch a show from like 9 to like 11 30 every night, every single night see, and I I wish that I could stay up that late, but I'm a baby I stay up so late I'm so groggy I pat.
Speaker 2if I stay up until 10 30, I'm like, oh gosh, I'm gonna be so tired and so, like I, and I unwillingly fall asleep. You know, because one of my toxic traits unwillingly, one of my toxic traits that like myillingly Unwillingly, yeah, one of my toxic traits that like my whole family shits on me for is that like the TV comes on, kk goes night-night yeah, I mean within 30 minutes, like it's an actual problem.
Speaker 3It's like borderline narcoleptic.
Speaker 2So my childhood room was like kind of the playroom slash computer room and so it had a TV in it and I would watch TV every single night to go to bed and that was also like an anxiety thing.
Speaker 3I think it's like a Pavlov's dog situation.
Speaker 2Yeah, so like now the TV comes on, I go gym gym night night. Gym gym night night.
Speaker 3Oh my gosh. On our cousin's weekend this summer, our cousin, we had a time, y'all like we should.
Speaker 2We should debrief that, but we need to.
Speaker 3We'll come back to plathville let's debrief quick really right, I was just gonna tell about how okay it was so fun it was. Are we gonna? But we're gonna.
Speaker 2We don't need to debrief debrief, but we had a time put a pin in plathville. Yes, put a pin, We'll come right back, okay.
Speaker 3But we had ourselves a freaking time in Jacksonville, florida, like we. I mean, really we didn't do that much, we just talked for hours. We drank at the pool all day. Caroline and I surprised our cousins with a choreographed Swim dance. Swim dance to like a cheerleading mix we like I mean we had ourselves a time yeah, and the funniest part is that it was like in a sorry, I interrupted you no go, go, you go no I want to know what you're gonna say.
Speaker 3We were like in the smack dab in the middle of, like a retiree suburban neighborhood. We we were like watering their plants topless, like we were like on. We were in Cabo, in a suburban neighborhood in Jacksonville Florida.
Speaker 2We had like we had like throwback music on the speaker and there was a bench in the deep end of the pool and I was dancing on that bench as though I was truly in Cancun. Yeah, yes, yeah it it was. It was so insane and I like showed Jay a video from the weekend of me like koala-ing my cousin Carrie whining about how much I love her, in her face, and Jay was like, oh my gosh, like he was immediately so icked at how icky we were all being, but all that to say we, one of our cousins, went hard on the canned wine that our other cousin, hannah, brought, and she went so hard Our cousin Hannah is like a wine liquor rep.
Speaker 2She has a storehouse of lots of alcohol and brought a lot of alcohol, and so we went hard on the canned wine. Well, carrie went hard on the canned wine, and so then, before dinner, we were like okay, carrie, this is your final call. Do you want to go to dinner or do you want to go jam jam night night?
Speaker 3We just kept saying jam jam night night and she was like I want to go jam jam night night.
Speaker 2So, then, for the rest of the night, we kept like we. We finally made it to a bar. We're so dead behind the eyes.
Speaker 3I mean honestly, I wasn't at that point. I was like I was sobered up, completely, completely, and so tie tie, so tie tie. I want to go jam jam night, night. Like I.
Speaker 2We just kept looking each other at this bar. That had way too much security. Like, yeah, like so much security that I kept thinking are they about to strip for us? Is this actually a strip show, Because there are so many tank top security men? That I was like something's up here, this can't actually be security.
Speaker 3It was just bad vibes, and so we're all just sitting there staring at each other and being like, does everyone else want to go jam jam night night? Uh-huh, we were all just like holding, holding our cups of like nasty, nasty plastic cup cocktails, just like, well, we made it out I think I kind of was the driver of that like I want to go to, like I wanted to go to dinner and drinks. I like really wanted to like see the scene. Yeah, and the scene was not it failed us, it failed us, but.
Speaker 3But carrie stayed home and she did not regret her decision, she didn't. We got home. We got home on the most horrifying uber ride I have our ever literally ever been on I was having like the most insane intrusive thoughts we were going on the way.
Speaker 2I'm like I kept thinking and we had crammed four into the back because she didn't put her third seat up for us and I just kept picturing, like the door opening yeah, okay, I was like I don't need to say this out loud because it was an intrusive thought, but I kept imagining the door opening and me just like bye Rolling out.
Speaker 3Yeah, it was very scary. I hated it and I kept. I was trying to pressure you to give her a bad review, but then you didn't want to.
Speaker 2I was scared that she was going to. Okay, what is the deal?
Speaker 3with that.
Speaker 2That's the thing. It's like they're dropping me off at my house. What if I give this person a bad review and they go cuckoo-ca-choo on me and come rob my ass or something I know? I don't really want to give a bad review to somebody that knows where I'm staying. That's so true, so I wouldn't do it.
Speaker 3I just said no, I just won't tip her, which is also not great Anyway, anyway, but yeah, we got home and carrie had rallied and she was, she was up and ready, she ate her dinner we watched a whole documentary.
Speaker 2We watched jaws and a document that was the night before, but we watched the documentary on that earthquake yeah, what a weird pivot in the night and oh my gosh. Okay, this is the last thing I'll say about cousins weekend, but we only finished half of the documentary and so the next day on the drive home, meredith was like let's put on that documentary.
Speaker 3Oh my god I forgot about this. This was the most big sister shit I've ever done.
Speaker 2Big sister, shit, okay, she puts on the. She's like put on the documentary for me while I drive so I can finish it. And I'd fallen asleep because y'all know the tv comes on. I go jam jam night night so I didn't know what was going on at all. But she's like I need to finish this documentary. I will say it was very intriguing and the, and the drive was long we were.
Speaker 2We were in the car for a long time, so but the documentary it happened. It was about mount everest, so the documentary was one third of it in another language that I had to translate for meredith while she drove so she would know what the people were talking about Because I wasn't watching the screen, I was just listening, so I'd be like what are they saying? So I literally translated an hour with subtitles, an hour of a freaking mouth, everest.
Speaker 3Thank you for your service. I don't think I ever thanked you for that, but that was really nice of you.
Speaker 2You're welcome.
Speaker 3I was invested but it was a lot of reading. It was a lot of reading. I of surprise you didn't get car sick.
Plathville TV Obsession
Speaker 2I know, okay, it's because I my tummy was full with the most delicious dairy queen of all time. Anyways, we're we're there and on the way back the thing is I get gravy, yes, I did, we got to get it when we can one b, I don't have one. Okay, um, okay, pen pull the pen out.
Speaker 3Pull the pen out, plathville. I'm on season four. Okay, I watch a lot of tv. I need another hobby at night. Maybe I just need to sleep.
Speaker 2I probably just need to sleep I don't know, mary, you watch like I'm kind of jealous of what. Like the show I I wish I could finish shows faster you.
Speaker 3You move at a snail's pace. I know it's bad. You could pick it up a little bit, because I can't watch anything with you. I know you got to pick it up. I could slow down too. Maybe we can meet in the middle. I think we need to I could do two episodes a night.
Speaker 2I watched two episodes last night, okay, and I went to bed at 1030.
Speaker 3Okay, episodes last night okay, and I went to bed at 10 30 okay, because I really I need to talk about okay, so anyways, plathville yeah it's from how long ago are they still putting out?
Speaker 3seasons. Okay, so it is. I googled it because I was like, okay, I'm in, I'm in deep, but I feel like it could be ending soon and that's fine. I'm gonna look up how many seasons there are. Seven, oh, it's long, like I think the clip I saw on Instagram is on the current seventh season, so I'm still like three and a half seasons away, woof. But y'all, if you need a show to watch, you can watch it on Disney Plus, like you can watch it. You know, out to our sister, emily that lets us on her disney plus account.
Speaker 2No, we, we use the cheap one now. Oh, I'm still on emily's. I have to watch ads. So that's really emily's still got your profile on hers girlfriend.
Speaker 3I think I kept getting kicked off because there's too many people. Anyway, I don't watch that much TV.
Speaker 2Yeah.
Speaker 3We were always conflicting. It's a great show. It's about a homeschool. I mean beyond homeschool. It's about a family that lives in rural Georgia on acres and acres of land. They have nine. How many children do they have? Nine, I don't even know, because I don't even count the younger ones there's so many, so many children do they have Not?
Speaker 2not, I don't even know, because I don't even count the younger ones. There's so many.
Speaker 3So many children. They are like raising them in an extremely sheltered environment. Like these kids don't know what. Like literally anything from like, not even just pop culture. Like they don't even know like history.
Speaker 2Yeah, they're like, well, and the parents are like kind of anti-education. Yeah, like they're like barely homeschooling these kids and they think that like education is not valuable.
Speaker 3One of them got a ged. Um, all of them just got homeschool certificates. One of them got a full ride scholarship to a college for playing like a string violin or something, and the parents like discouraged her from going to college yeah, and she didn't go right, and she did not go yeah, so anyway, it's very interesting. It follows them for years and you see, like lots of you just like see the outcome and there's some really lovable characters and there's some characters you really don't like. It's a great show. It is, honestly, when mayor.
Speaker 2When I got over there and mayor was like we have to start watching the show, I was like they're ready to chit chat, not watch tv. And mayor was like all I can think about is this show. We have to watch this show.
Speaker 3So she got me onto the couch with a snack and I was honestly invested immediately I know I it's like just it's so low budget which like honestly, kind of makes it better. Yeah, like it's just it's so bad. Keith is invested too. He like I was like texting. He was playing video games upstairs last night when I was watching. I was texting him updates and he was like so invested.
Speaker 2It's on, it checks a lot of boxes. I know it's one of those like low stakes show like you're. You're stressed because there's drama, but it's not like a drama.
Speaker 3No, and they're not. It's not like over the top drama. It honestly it honestly seems pretty. You know it's TV, so it's not fully believable, but it doesn't. It's not like overblown, like a lot of reality TV is.
Speaker 2It's like a rural family in georgia remember when I I can't remember if we've already talked about this, but remember when I went through that phase where selling sunset was my entire personality.
Speaker 3But like I honestly want you to. I kind of love, I loved that little blip of your life really, I thought it was like really fun, because it was the most tv you had watched in so long. Should I go back to it? The selling the oc, which is my favorite, one of those franchise that franchise.
Speaker 2I love the oc one, I think because there's guys too it just feels more like I like seriously, was obsessively watching it, I would light my candles. We should watch, I'd pour my white wine I was drinking white wine. I'm kind of drinking white wine again. Maybe I should watch it, but I only got to watch.
Speaker 3Plathville and I still haven't finished the Bear. I know I can't give you anything else, caroline, you keep saying that about the Bear. I think you can take it off your rotation, it's been months.
Speaker 2No, I have two episodes left. Oh, that's it. Yeah, okay, and I'm still like super into it.
Speaker 3I just can only watch it with jay yeah, so okay, I just dropped off of wednesday, did you? I haven't started it yet. I don't love this season. Oh, you'll have to let me know what you think, okay, but back to reality tv.
Speaker 2Yes, we, I think. Have we ever talked about our survivor?
Speaker 3situation? I don't think so have we.
Survivor and Family Sandwich Sundays
Speaker 2I don't know, I don't think we have so our sister Emily loves Survivor, has since the day it came out. She used to go to our grandma's house and watch it with our grandma and we never got into it just because our parents did not do reality tv at all like very first reality show no, no, no, no. The real world world. That was the first reality game show maybe I don't know no wait, there's so many game shows what was so intriguing about it?
Speaker 2because they're on an island yeah, okay, I thought it was the first of something we need to look up okay but we never got into it because we were younger, and so emily, though, was always like survivor, survivor, and we just never got into it I had.
Speaker 3I have memories, though, of my fifth grade class of like talking about survivor in class, like with the teacher remember we would go to the bickles.
Speaker 2The bickles were obsessed and they had buffs and and we would like play Survivor with them.
Speaker 3I loved an as Seen on TV friend. I know we didn't have as Seen on TV people no, but they had all the coolest, like that rainbow paint thing. Yes, that scraped the colors. Yes, who bought? Did Sue Bickle call in to get that stuff?
Speaker 2Or was it like a?
Speaker 3grandma or an aunt or something.
Speaker 2What was her grandma's name? Bubby Bubby, oh gosh.
Speaker 3So many memes Remember Bubby would fart and she'd say stepped on a duck.
Speaker 2I do not remember that, but I do remember we would destroy their room over the garage and then when Bubby was coming to town we wouldn't be able to play in there for like weeks because Miss Sue wouldn't want us to mess it up. But, um, okay, sorry sidetrack, but the Bickles love survivor. And that was like my only little taste of it, but we never watched it. Okay, fast forward to, I guess, covid.
Speaker 3I don't. Okay, fast forward to. I guess, covid, you started before me and I made fun of you.
Speaker 2I, if you don't know me well, I kind of go all in on things. Mayor can tell you more about that.
Speaker 3You have so many fan things.
Speaker 2Is it hyper fixation?
Speaker 3I mean you could call it that. I just feel like you're, like you're like you, I'm a fangirl. You fangirl across an array of interests.
Speaker 2I know I really do, and Survivor became one of them. Like I got obsessed, started from the beginning, yes, well no, you binged that show. It started with the ones they put on Netflix. And then there was this like super hot guy that me and Ben would always talk about. I can't remember what. We would call him Daddy, something I think his name was yeah, daddy, joe and anyway. So then I was like I need more of this. So then I started from the very beginning and that show I did binge. You did.
Speaker 2I was obsessed. I also was staying at home with a baby at the time and like didn't have that much stuff going on tired now, I'm very tired all the time. But so then I got meredith into it and jay into it and like everyone into it, so we got like this super, which we're back onto it I have not back on we just started the latest season because Jay was like there's no way we can go back and we started in our family sandwich and survivor Sundays.
Speaker 2Okay, so on Sundays, on Saturdays, I go to the store, I buy all the things for an ultimate sandwich.
Speaker 3Oh, this is fun.
Speaker 2We all make our own versions of our ultimate sandwich. So, like this past week, I did a like turkey bacon, avocado lettuce ranch from Il Focolare. Oh my God, Like it was amazing, See. And then we watched Survivor.
Speaker 3I love eating a sandwich, but I hate making a sandwich. It pays off. There's something about it, it's all. Yeah, it just takes so many ingredients. Yeah, it is a lot of ingredients. It's a lot of taking stuff out of the fridge, but I love a good sandwich.
Speaker 2We laid everything out. Everyone got to make their own sandwiches. Jay handled the bacon, I handled the toasting of the bread. I bought good sourdough. It was delicious and we literally all sat down and watched Survivor. I said we're doing this every Sunday from now on.
Speaker 3So you've done one.
Speaker 2Saturday. Well, we've done the sandwiches two Sundays and we started Survivor last Sunday.
Speaker 3Okay, I love that Sabbath sandwich Sunday Survivor yes.
Speaker 2Yeah, so I'm back on my Survivor kick Everyone watch out.
Speaker 3Okay, I need to. I want to get back onto it. I like dropped. I was also watching. No, I was just watching like I was hopping around because I would ask you and Em, like, what are a good season?
Speaker 2Yeah. Do you think you would make it On Survivor? Yeah.
Speaker 3I don't think so. I think I want to think I would, but I don't. I just I think I could maybe survive like rough it not like not like naked and afraid or what's that show where they just drop you naked and afraid, or the why, what was the one that was like bear grills. I don't know. I couldn't do that because I I have like no survival skills but I could play a good social game.
Speaker 3But I think I could hang like, I think I could. I think I would be a good teammate, like if. If we're making, are we making a? I'm about to say four. Are we making a shelter? I'll go collect sticks. I'll like, I'll work hard. Yeah, I'm a hard worker. I know what it takes. If we're making, are we making a? I was about to say fort. Are we making a shelter? I'll go collect sticks. I'll like I'll work hard. Yeah, I'm a hard worker. I know what it takes to like be of value in a group. I've worked.
Speaker 1I've like lived in communal living you know what I mean.
Speaker 3I feel like I had the skills of like communal living. Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah. I feel like the challenges would the water challenges really stress me out. See, I don't like, I don't want to dive. I don't want to dive for things. That really stresses me out.
Speaker 2So I wouldn't make it. I don't know if I would or not.
Speaker 3I the social game would be. I don't know that. I'm like three steps ahead.
Speaker 2Enough of a strategy thinker and I'm not good at lying- you're horrible at lying.
Speaker 3You're horrible at lying. You couldn't. Yeah, I feel like you would like. You would be very stressed, I would be so it wouldn't be fun for me no, it wouldn't. I'm okay at lying, I just like. I think my biggest concern there's always that thing where it's like you don't want to be the one that's leading the cause.
Speaker 2I know.
Speaker 3You don't want to be the one that's just following all the commands, because then you're dead weight, I know, or they're going to take you to the end and then just like off you. So it's like it would be hard knowing where you hang in the balance yeah, I think that's what a lot of people struggle with. Do I enjoy watching it so much?
Speaker 2I know and I just think about, like boston rob's early seasons boston rob, boston rob and dylan efronron's friendship gives me life.
Speaker 3I know, are they still doing stuff together? Yes, oh, they are.
Speaker 2Yes, they literally just were filming content and golfing together last week. I love that. They are, like, I think, literal besties.
Speaker 3That's very cute.
Speaker 2From Traders.
Speaker 3Yes.
Speaker 2Which I didn't make it through because I can't keep up, and everyone was talking about it. It was a good it. I think that's what I think, okay.
Speaker 3So I think that's. Would I watch another season? Probably not.
Speaker 2Traitors yeah, so I think that that's. What's wrong with me is like I can't watch reality TV when it's happening because I can't watch things quick enough, and so I fall behind. And then I find out.
Reality TV Show Adventures
Speaker 3What happened? What happens? Honestly, that show happened. It's one of those shows that washed over me. I enjoyed it and I never thought about it ever again.
Speaker 2Yeah, so okay. Also, Mare and I sent in a video to be on Deal or no Deal Island before we knew what it was at all. They'd never done a season.
Speaker 3Yeah, they didn't have a title. They had like a loose concept they're doing. It was going to be 100 people, 50 pairs of people, and it would like they would narrow down the end and then it ended up turning in a no deal or no deal.
Speaker 2I was like way less people way less people and it wasn't pairs.
Speaker 3No pairs yeah.
Speaker 2Because it was like partners. Whenever we were sending in the video and we got a call back, we did.
Speaker 3We had an interview with one of the producers. Yeah. But I think I threw it, I think I messed it up for both of us, because I said what you know how we always say we just want to be famous. I said that in the interview.
Speaker 2Remember. But what they didn't know is that we were quoting that girl on with the video of the little girl saying I want to be famous.
Speaker 3I want to be famous, but he didn't get the joke he was like y'all are annoying and that's fine, because I watched that show and I thought, but boston rob, was there not? On Deal or no.
Speaker 2Deal Island. If it showed up and Boston Rob would have been there, I would have. Literally I could die happy if I got to meet Boston Rob.
Speaker 3I know I would have been very happy too.
Speaker 2But I am also like I don't love how the show turned out, like the concept of it, so I don't think it would have been what we wanted it to be. No. Another show will come along, yeah of it. So.
Speaker 3I don't think it would have been what we wanted it to be. No, another show will come along, yeah what? But I also don't know if I'd like. My friend Caroline was like don't do it, like you don't want that to happen, they'll have footage of you that can use for anything. Like she was. She's just like extremely, um, like wary is not the right word, but just like I think realistic yeah, and I'm like it'll be great, it'll be so funny that's me.
Speaker 3I'm like it'll be so fun to tell people a little bit like, especially after we watch the weight watchers not weight watchers oh biggest loser documentary this week and I thought and like they were talking about how the contract is so long and then you're like pressured to sign it.
Speaker 2Yeah. The girl said, can I get a lawyer? And they said, yeah, but then you won't be on the show. Like we have other people that will sign it without a lawyer.
Speaker 3So I don't know that I'm actually on board with like the snake, but the NDA, actually the NDA ends eventually.
Speaker 2Look at him now. Now they're on a documentary, yeah, documentary. So maybe you'll get a documentary out of it.
Speaker 3It goes south. I think it's bad, though I think you don't want a documentary.
Speaker 2Yeah, they were full on abused. That show was insane. It was, I remember when it came out.
Speaker 3We actually watched it for this episode tonight.
Speaker 2And it was too sad.
Speaker 3Halfway through we were like I don't want to talk about this.
Speaker 2It's so sad. And now we're just babbling to you about the tv shows we watch. I know.
Speaker 3But I will say too, if you're wondering about biggest loser documentary, I don't even know that it's worth watching because I thought it would be. It was going to be like more salacious or like yeah, whoa, this is crazy and it honestly is like really sad accounts of things you could have guessed honestly, the thing is, is that the show does not hold up.
Speaker 2What was happening on the show was so not OK. No. And I don't know why. At the time we just pretended it was. But like you can see footage of the show that aired and think how was this? Was this? Ok, yeah. Like why were people OK with seeing this? Like they're fullon screaming in their faces and like talking trash to them yeah it's bizarre, but yeah, okay, but Plathville y'all need to watch and then love, if this whole community just turned into us all watching.
Speaker 3Plathville, plathville. I have not met a single person that watches it.
Speaker 2We really need you guys to watch it. We want to talk about it. So bad. There's so much to say.
Speaker 3There's so much to say Like, like, and I'm dying for you to get to season four, because it's insane.
Speaker 2Okay, I can't wait. Maybe whenever we get to season four we can walk everyone through what's going on. Okay, I can't wait.
Speaker 3Maybe whenever we get to season four we can walk everyone through what's going on, but I wanted to say you guys start now and you'll catch up with Caroline. Yeah, truly.
Speaker 2But after this we've already decided we're going to Jersey Shore.
Speaker 3Not going there, we're watching, no, no no, sorry, sorry.
Speaker 2We're going to watch the show Jersey Shore. I was like I think that's like my new. My thing I like to do is watch reality TV years later. And so if you have any reality TV shows that you're like that was an amazing season or that y'all need to watch this because next is Jersey Shore and then I didn't either. And then next was what I sent you one today that was like this is after Jersey Shore.
Speaker 3I don't know Today, yeah, I didn't get it. I don't know. There's a lot.
Speaker 2There's so much out there.
Speaker 3There's a lot of TV from that like a lot of bad reality from that time period specifically. Do you remember that plastic surgery show called? Here I go again about like, about beauty standards. Oh, uh-huh. But no, it was a plastic surgery show from that same time period, like 2000s, it what was it called? Like the Swan or something. From that same time period, like 2000s, it what was it called? Like the Swan or something. But basically they did challenges and if they won the challenges they went into the show they got plastic surgery.
Speaker 3They went into the show with the list of all their dream surgeries.
Speaker 2That is insane. It is the most like insane.
Speaker 3It is the saddest show I've ever watched. If they win challenges, they get to get the surgery done. What? And then if they win, it's like they get all the surgeries. But it's just like the most the weirdest show because they'll be like in the house with each other and like all of them are like recovering from surgery.
Speaker 2Wait, you've told me all this, so they're all just like wrapped up.
Speaker 3On painkillers what, how is?
Speaker 2this a show? I Wait, you've told me all this.
Speaker 3so they're all just like wrapped up, so they'd be like all bandaged up and like on painkillers. What, how is this a show? I don't know. I think there was maybe only one season. Oh, that's awful, I know, and there was that other show, Extreme Makeover, where they would literally go in and get like someone.
Speaker 2Oh, I thought you meant Extreme Makeover Home Edition.
Speaker 3I don't know what it was called, but it was like extreme makeover for your body and someone else would tell them what they should do and then they would do it all like at one time. What? And then? They'd like reveal themselves to their loved ones. And they looked like completely different people what I've been seeing footage of that going around the internet recently and it's so interesting.
Speaker 2We always send each other the trading spaces videos of like people doing insane shit, heidi putting the hay on the walls out of control okay, wait what was your favorite MTV show because MTV used to be so good, have we talked about this?
Speaker 3no, I haven't watched. I honestly didn't watch. A ton of MTVtv, my gosh I loved it, but I was about to go into detail about trading space. I me and mom used to love that show oh, you didn't watch um. Like pimp my ride, date my mom, I've I like, have watched them, but I would never like turn on TV and just like watching TV.
Speaker 2Oh my gosh Me. I went through this phase where I was like staying with my friend for the summer, basically, and every morning we would eat a cinnamon bun Pop-Tart with butter on it, which, if you haven't had a Pop-Tart with butter on it, that's the only way to do it Toasted butter. And then we would watch Jerry Springer oh my gosh, every morning of an entire summer.
Speaker 3Did you watch that documentary? No, that one was To be expected. Yeah, and sad About him, they just like fully exploited people and like financially, like in every way way sad that show is unhinged. Yeah, yeah his background is like not what you'd expect, though. He was like a stand-up ish guy really, and then just kind of like followed, like took cues from, like what the culture wanted.
Inappropriate Moments and Memories
Speaker 2Oh, it's very, which is like the saddest part about it yikes, that's what we wanted I know I mean same with same, with like biggest loser that I y'all, I yeah, I'm like, honestly, y'all don't even need to watch it, it is so what jerry oh biggest loser documentary I mean it's interesting. I found the girl that has the podcast like so interesting yeah, she had a lot because she had really good insight because what was her podcast? She like what has some sort of like specialty in, like fat culture, yeah and her insight was. So I don't know I'm like glad that they asked her me too.
Speaker 3It was a good addition, I mean on this show what were we talking about? We've covered so many tv shows we're talking about your summer day some jerry springer cinnamon pop tart with butter on it. Okay, you watch Jerry Springer. Yeah, that's what I did every morning I started my day and then MTV, oh, and then MTV. Okay.
Speaker 2I mean, like I was like an MTV watcher.
Speaker 3Okay. I loved Next Was that the one where they always find jizz on the sheets.
Speaker 2Ew, that one's the room raiders one, I think. Sorry, is that a bad word? No, okay, but we should end with this, of all the things that you say. Oh my God.
Speaker 3We were just talking about this today with some friends, because I get in trouble, because I can't always gauge what's appropriate. Again, again it's like our mouths are moving and our minds are like two steps behind, but I was in a brand new Bible study group at church. Not brand new, this was our last meeting, but it was like the first time I had been in a Bible study group at this church. And it was mixed generation.
Speaker 3Mixed generation, mixed company like men and women. And I told this story about how one time I was working at Banana Republic and this woman came out of the dressing room I was the dressing room attendant and she was like, do I have a camel toe in this? And I had to like tell her whether or not she had a camel toe. Which is crazy. Which is crazy. But I told that story and people laughed but I think it was like kind of inappropriate Because one woman seemed like very uncomfortable with it. But I'm like, if that woman came out of the stall asking if she had a camel toe, and remember she asked me.
Speaker 3I thought I could tell the story to y'all. You're like I didn't ask if I had a camel toe. That was the other thing. Oh, I said raw dog at Disney World.
Speaker 2Yeah, she said. The woman said did y'all have fun on Splash Mountain? You're like, yeah, we raw dogged it. We didn't bring our ponchos.
Speaker 3Well, she asked, yeah, she asked, yeah, she asked like, did y'all not have ponchos? Because we were wet and I was like, yeah, we raw, okay also. And she was like I, she was young, she was younger than me, like I knew, she knew.
Speaker 2But she's like I'm a cast member. I can't laugh at this woman. I was like with my children.
Speaker 3She was like I and I. I looked, looked away and looked back and she was gone.
Speaker 2She was like okay, also whenever we were at Rosignol's as kids, this like super bougie sore that our mom was always like I already fell out of place there and you guys totally like humiliated me.
Speaker 3I think that was like I don't think she'd ever been that mad at me ever.
Speaker 2Oh, she's been way more mad at me. She was just like fed up. You know that, like mom, look where you're like, oh my gosh, my life is flashing before my eyes, just based on my mom's glare. Yeah, we got that hard because there was a necklace which of like the thing is, is the necklace was of acorns?
Speaker 3I'm pretty sure what it was in my memory.
Speaker 2It is what okay, in my memory it was acorns and maybe it wasn't, because I was young and it was like silver plated acorn necklace. It was so ugly.
Speaker 3Mayor very loudly said it looked like a ball stand and our mom and we were young. She like I know this didn't actually happen, but in my memory she dragged us out of the store. I wasn't young. I think I was in high school.
Speaker 2Were you Uh-huh? Why were we in Rossignols with mom?
Speaker 3I don't know. I don't think it was the first time I'd ever been in there and mom was like I like I hate coming in here.
Speaker 2And she was right, they were not friendly and they did not think it was funny, so they heard me. I have no idea, I don't remember. I just remember being like oh shit, mary's in trouble, she never gets in trouble.
Speaker 3Yeah, mom was very mad at me that day.
Speaker 2The only other time I remembered you getting in trouble is whenever you shook up the shakable salad and the brand new Suburban. We have talked about that, oh my gosh. Well, we just talked your ear off about absolutely nothing for 41 minutes.
Speaker 3Hope you're having a great start or end to your day, or middle Um, yeah, and we'll see you next Tuesday. And we'll see you next tuesday.
