Bringing Up Bates: Eat Feed Pray Oct 27, 2021

Show notes

This week, Megan and Gillian get back into the lighthearted, anxiety-ridden world of the Bates. We watch them clean out ~the shed~, go to cooking classes and awkwardly pry into Tori and Bobby’s courtship. Somehow, all of the Bates get out of these episodes without any broken bones, which is honestly impressive. Come hang out with us!

Welcome to Plathville: Mamma Mia, Here We Go Again Oct 15, 2021

Show notes

This week Megan and Gillian continue talking about Welcome to Plathville season 3. Last week's episodes were *full* bummers, but this week we find a glimmer of hope and rekindle our outrage at Kim's behavior towards her children. Come hang out with us!

Episode 69: King Daddy Oct 07, 2021

Show notes

This week, Megan and Gillian get back into Welcome to Plathville, and it still sucks! Everyone in this show deserves to be happy except Kim and Barry, and we get into the nitty gritty, depressing details of woe that season 3 has served us. Come hang out with us (and maybe cry a little too)!

LuLaRich: Predatory Leggings and Marrying Your Stepbrother Sep 28, 2021

Show notes

This week Megan and Gillian watched the 4 part docuseries LuLaRich. We discuss the serious parts of the predatory nature of MLMs, pyramid schemes and direct sales, while also taking the time to laugh at the Stidhams seemingly perjuring themselves on camera. Come hang out with us!

Welcome to Plathville: Tough Emotions, Tough Decisions Sep 19, 2021

Show notes

This week, Megan and Gillian are catching up on Welcome to Plathville for Season Three. It’s more of a bummer than previous Plath family shows, but it’s really showing the truth of abusive parenting and the fallout of leaving a familial cult, and it’s important to talk about that! Come hang out with us!

Bringing up Bates: Cracker Barrel, Basketball Goals and Boundaries Sep 11, 2021

Show notes

Hello everyone! This week Megan and Gillian finish up season 5 of Bringing Up Bates. We get to see Lawson perform (badly), a basketball court get finished (finally) and Alyssa has her baby (secretly). Come hang out with us!

Bringing Up Bates: Firelighters, Fiascos and Florida Sep 03, 2021

Show notes

This week Megan and Gillian cover more of the Bates season 5! This chunk of episodes started out with some truly cringe courtship and ended up with a reminder that small kids need to be taught fire safety. And don't think we forgot to dish about the ARK encounter, complete with the screams of the sinners outside, drowning. Come hang out with us!

Bringing Up Bates: Horseland Farm Ranch Aug 26, 2021

Love is Blind: Trash Men, Single Ladies and Voldemort Aug 17, 2021

Show notes

Bringing Up Bates: Bald As A Cucumber Aug 03, 2021

Show notes

Megan and Gillian are finishing up Bringing Up Bates Season 4 this week, after a week of sewer issues messing up recording! Two babies are born, buddies are mudding, and Warden does death defying stunts that make us concerned for his safety. Come hang out with us!
