Kody is double dipping! Kody and Robyn are a unit. They are 1. Then you have Meri and Janelle. Kody knew exactly what he was doing when he labeled those parcels. He's a snake in the grass!
The fact that he thinks requiring him to pay child support is "going after him" tells you exactly who Kody is. He's a sperm donor, not a father. His interaction with the real estate agent is cringey. His idea of an Alpha male is twisted. My husband is a perfect example of a righteous Alpha. He provides, protects and councils with me in all decisions regarding our family. He also does everything possible to encourage me to be my best self, supports my hopes and dreams and finds joy in my success, both in my career and at home. True Alphas lead by example, not force or edict.
@@joeswife a true alpha also doesn’t have to announce to everyone that they are, in fact, an “alpha”…as Kody does to pretty much every guy he meets. It also cracks me up that he reiterates that he is the leader or head of his family while at the same time, refusing to take responsibility for anything that actually happens to said family 🤦♀️
He has nobody else to film with since the wives have left . He has to hold the poor guy hostage and force him to film with him and hear his rants as bad ravings about his divorces . Lol
The problem is Meri Janelle and Christine all willingly literally gave he & Robyn money. They are grifters 1000%, but the OG3 were extremely naive and didn’t ask questions. M & J literally paid R down payment. They all put money in family account knowing R never worked. Unfortunately that’s not R & K stealing, that’s the OG3 stupidity
As a rookie flower farmer myself, I think what they are wanting to do is create an experience, as in, they grow the flowers, sell flowers at their farm stand/local farmers markets, have ‘U Pick’ days where people come to the farm to pick their own bunches, be a location for photo shoots, maybe be a location for weddings and events, yoga classes, workshops etc, etc. Maybe even add in some Airbnb cabins over time for people to stay. You can be incredibly successful micro flower farming on very little acreage. I’m happy to see Janelle moving into a business with potential longevity, outside of the MLM world, and outside of the show. 🌸🌼🌻🌺
6:38 the audacity of Kody! To describe this situation as “asking for a favor”. The partnership is ending. It’s appropriate to divide the assets. It’s not a favor. It’s a necessity for anyone ending a partnership.
I hated they way Kody talked to the real estate agent and mentioned the dogs. Janelle picked the dogs over him and he was not happy about it. Go Janelle!
He didn't want to sleep with the Dogs, and he didn't want to sleep with children in their bed. Yup Janelle picked sleeping with the dogs over sleeping with him. Good Choice.
Janelle's business was her MLM. The start up costs was about $1,000, which I'm sure she paid herself. If Kody put anything toward it at all, it would have been from the "family fund" which Janelle contributed more to than Kody did, most likely. And we all know what K&R blow money on from that account. Janelle owes that man NOTHING! She should tell him that she'll deduct from the amount he owes her from the money she gave him for Robyn's McMansion. That man is desperately trying to think of everything he can to get a hold of these women's income like he always did. Newsflash Kody...THEY AREN'T MARRIED TO YOU ANYMORE. They aren't going to support you and the mistress any longer.
He is just disgusting! And the way he talks about ‘Janelle walking away with the profits’ you can tell he actually BELIEVES what he is saying. 😳🙄 everything you said is spot on! Janelle has contributed more than most to that fund. SHE did all of the work for the business (plexus I think?) so of course she will keep it when she dumps your sorry a$$! Ugh I cannot with him
@ yes she did. She’s always had a side hustle too. Janelle worked all the time when they lived in Lehi all in the one house and contributed a lot and continued to throughout. I would say that she and Meri for sure contributed the most. I also think that Meri was taken advantage of more than anyone else. I hope she at least gets something back.
So I was watching “baking with David and Allison”lol and I wanted to tell yall I was watching mykelti’s watch along and while they were waiting someone recommended one of your shorts for them to watch and they liked it laughed said it was accurate so .. got a thumbs up from them ☺️😊
Next time, sustitue the water for milk and oil for butter (not margarine). You need a stiff enough buttercream in bewteen each layer and dont layer warm. Use dowels or boba straws for support 🎂👌
Buttercream is so 100% SIMPLE to make, I cannot imagine buying that frosting with the weird taste. I use a cake mix, too, but I alter it with flour and sugar first. Then I use half butter, half oil, full fat milk, & eggs and the vanilla that I make (again WHHHYYY would you buy that??? It is soooo great when you make it and its nearly zero effort and tons cheaper.) Adding the flour/ sugar that I do takes out the wild sweetness, and makes it really taste like a bakery cake. And my buttercream is *chef's kiss*. My husband never liked cakes in his entire 55 years until I started baking. Now he loves them. Edited to add: NEVER use a mixer for the cake! Too big a chance of overmixing and it will be tough!
Agree. Great video!! Watching Kody is painful! 😂. Poor guy can’t even fathom how much people dislike him. But I loved seeing Christine make her own investment (with David supporting her).
Apparently they always used to have dogs until Robyn came along. Another reactor caught Robyn kicking their dog (on the edge of the screen) in the early episodes.
I bet this is 75% of the reason he’s mad the OG3 left him. Same with Robyn. They’re officially not interesting anymore because both of them had their entire identities wrapped up in polygamy and now they’re just like everyone else.
@ Logan was in high school when they moved. For 14 years she worked and paid the light bill and water billl. While Janelle paid the mortgage. Tlc paid for those houses. Meri didn’t share assets. So try again.
None of Janelle's children got anything from Kody and Robyn. Not even a measly phone call or text saying Merry Christmas. There was nothing stopping Robyn from going Christmas shopping for Kody's other children, even if Kody didn't. Robyn never gave a damn about the og children like she tries to portray when the cameras are rolling. I bet Leon and Christine's kids didn't get anything from Robyn and Kody either. The episode showed Truely and Ysabel at Robyn's, they maybe got one or two small gifts, but Robyn bought a second round of gifts for her kids, that already had gotten a huge pile of expensive gifts, she said so her kids won't "feel left out" when Ysabel and Truely are opening theirs. Robyn's adult kids and the younger two shouldn't be acting like spoiled rotten kids, that can't watch two of their step-siblings open one or two gifts without getting upset!! Robyn should've told them they already got their gifts. Especially her three adult children, they're old enough to know better than to act like that. All she had to do is explain to the younger two, the same thing. They weren't toddlers. What about the og children that got nothing at all? How do you think they felt, Robyn? She buys a second round of gifts for her kids because they can't watch poor Ysabel and Truely open one gift, meanwhile all the other children got nothing at all. Where's their empathy for the other children? They don't have any empathy or concern for anybody else and that is so messed up.
AND the profit from the house they just sold should have been divided because FAMILY money paid the down payment, plus the 3 OG wives always had outside businesses and jobs. Kody admits he only has failed businesses (which would have cost family money as well).
Crazy thing is legally he can't hire a real estate professional to sell that joint property without the other co owners having a say in who the agent is, and how they want it sold. All of that conversation should have been done with all of the owners there. I think that Kody was presenting it the way he did so that the realtor wouldn't clue into the fact that he hadn't been communicating with the other owners (Janelle and Meri) and that he didn't have the right to even put it on the market without their approval. Hence why he told the realtor that he had paid for one of the lots all by himself, and posing it as going through divorces. When in reality he wasn't married to either of the co-owners legally when they bought the property. The fact that neither Meri or Janelle have any idea that he is listing it with a realtor or that Kody had even brought a realtor to the property is pretty shady. and a huge red flag that he plans to screw them over. And I think Meri and Janelle both know it, although Meri is coming to the realization slowly. I mean Kody and Robyn have already screwed them over, over property. Meri and Janelle put the down payment on Robyn's house, they have gotten none of that money back after the "divorces". Notice that topic hasn't come up again. But they effectively have already been screwed out of that money, without their names on the deed they have no legal claim and no way to force Kody and Robyn to pay them back for the down payments. Now he's dealing with the coyote pass property without even telling them what He's doing. I think they can be pretty sure he's not looking out for anyone's interests but his and Robyns.
This 🔝 💯 and it’s making me crazy insane when he acts like he’s doing them a favor by speaking to them or letting them in on the information when they are co -owners. He’s a despicable human being.
Hey you two! I'm a subscriber who never comments, but I just had to say that I LOVED this format with you, David baking, and Allison keeping you company.❤Reminds me of my husband and I. BTW your kitchen is BEAUTIFUL! I'm not even going to comment about Kody Brown because the man makes my skin crawl, but I think this was the best episode this season!
Flower farming as a business is high risk and hard! One hurricane can wipe them out. The cost of insurance will be massive. Janelle calls it a 'hobby farm'. Maddie and Caleb call it developing a working farm from raw land. Sometimes I think that Janelle is as disconnected from reality as Kody.
Agree also. She can grow veggies in her backyard but flowers would demand perfect timing. They have a very short life. I don’t think this is the best of her ideas.
I get the impression that Janelle is basically providing funding for Madison and Caleb, and possibly other family members, to have a venue business primarily.
5:56 in Maryland theres a sunflower farm. You pay to park, for entry, then pay to purchase any flowers you pick. They also allow for photoshoots, you pay a small fee and can stay all day.
The way Kody described swimming with the family was DISGUSTING (as was the actual thing). Who tells a stranger that they stripped down to their underwear with their children 😮
I love when you heard him tell Gabe to not get it in his mouth because manure was in there. Like sir, you have other holes that everyone is submerging in poo water.
He said he went " skinny dipping " with his children. Skinny dipping means you are naked and to say that he went skinny dipping with his children, makes it sound creepy and strange. They weren't skinny dipping, they had underwear on. Once again, Kody uses a word in the wrong way.
Kody has a habit of thinking that if he loaned you $5, you now owe him any profit you make forever and ever, even if you returned that $5 back to him. He completely glosses over the fact that when Christine bought her house, she did take the down payment from the family fund - as did Robyn - but Christine gave that money back and made all the mortgage payments herself. She was under no obligation to split the proceeds with “the family”. I’m sure it was something similar with Janelle. They may have helped with the start-up, but she would have returned that money and did all the work to keep the business going herself. I’m sure that she was probably contributing to the family fund right until she decided to leave…and her money & profits went with her. Personally, I’d like to know if K & R returned any of the money they took for Robyn’s house to the family fund/Janelle/Meri when they sold the McMansion to buy another one.
I think they're going to harvest the flowers too. They will also create a beautiful place to visit and include cabins like a B&B. Happy Birthday, Enzo!
I believe Kody and Robin have yet to give Meri & Janelle the $$ they put for the down payment their house. Also if you look at R & K house of paintings and chotskies those two have been taking the lions share of the family$$. I don’t agree that Janelle owes K anything. He has taken advantage of those ladies.
“We’re overwhelmed parents, so you’re going to watch me bake a cake for my kid while we gossip about this train wreck of a reality tv family.” I’ve never loved this channel more.
I worked as the accountant at a flower co-op - the place florists come to get their flowers and decorations. Flower farming is a hustle. People are up at like 4 am getting their grind on selling flowers, plus there is the actual growing of the flowers and harvesting and getting them to market. Running the business part behind it. I will say that most of the people I worked with were very happy and liked what they did. It’s a little like wine culture. I went out to a flower farm of one of the board members once and it was absolutely beautiful land full of tulips and roses and giant sunflowers among others. But I also saw the grind that everyone went through and I hope for Janelle that she does find the peace that she is seeking. Either with this or something else.
Leon’s college was discussed in an old episode, they wanted to attend a more expensive college so at least on the show it was said they would get an amount equivalent to the state school the others attended then the rest Meri or scholarships would cover. But then Meri also admitted she didn’t actually know what the other paid for and didn’t.
Meri & Leon should have gotten the equivalent of what the other kids got and then Meri should have paid the difference, but I did read somewhere (a long time ago) that Meri just paid the whole bill.
Yup, same reason Robyn keeps pretending she wants Janelle to come back. Robyn thought the other women would never leave and that she would continue financially abusing them. She thought they would be happy with the crumbs Kody would throw their way once a year, but the jokes on Robyn. They wised up and got the hell away from them.
Her business was an MLM style business. He did NOT fund it, it doesn't work that way. You gain through a downline of other resellers. Likely, if at all, he gave her a few hundred dollars.. but the thing is, Kody does not fund anything to do with his life. He uses his wives as producers (Watch Notes to Self 444 who used to be in the AUB for more information on this) So he is not funding his family, his family is funding him. In Kody's eyes.. Kody IS "The Family" and all roads lead to his wants/desires/needs. He can't stand that these women took their hard work and investments and walked away with them.
Flower export is a big thing here (the Netherlands) and it is indeed lot of science. I visited the area hete with all the greenhouses, the water is dripped automatic, it is huge. I also, ofcourse, visited the outside tulip and other fields, beautiful. Anyway I like how David states what he wants to make (sounds cool, the ski slope cake) asks how one gets to let the different pieces stay up and then says he doesn't know. (must watch old Cake Boss episodes again, he put pieces of wood in the centre sometimes)
It baffles me why anyone expects reason or common sense from someone who is purportedly an alcoholic. Once you realize it, if you have any experience with alcoholics, you can't unsee it.
Tip. Use butter instead of oil. I learned that from a baker. It taste so much better! Not to mention you are not using horrible oil. Another tip. Butter, cream cheese and powder sugar you have homemade cream cheese frosting. I use to love frosting in the can but once I started making my own I can taste the chemicals in the can frosting.
Don’t forget real vanilla extract to go with the cream cheese, butter and powdered sugar for the frosting. You can also add a dash of heavy cream while beating the the frosting ingredients so it isn’t too thick and it gives it a bit of a whipped cream taste. Yum!
They are using ingredients and brands that typically* are dairy-free (* sometimes brands change their ingredients). If so, butter and cream cheese wouldn't be options here. But good tips that I didn't know before 😊 edited to say nevermind, whipped cream. Happy birthday!
Wasn't that implied? He didn't say it would be unequal. It actually made me think maybe he wasn't going to screw Meri and Janelle. If he thinks of the property that he paid for as being split between the four then he should be thinking of all the lots as being owned by everyone equally, if not legally. That is what they have implied by all their talk of redividing the property. And I remember talk of plots in names being a convenience to get everything bought. Not sure how they split their money to say he paid and not anyone else. They have never been clear what this family fund was and the allowances that went to each wife. Or what money would be considered to belong to only one of them.
@@kirielbranson4843 Kody has always said that Meri doesn't deserve for than 2 acres of the 14 acres. That's 14% of the land. That's not equal based on what they have paid in.
Sad that contrary to Meri’s statement she is a doormat. She only has 1 kid and had to pay for their own college when other kids tuition came out of the family fund! She allowed that to be okay. Also I agree that it is pure BS that the land is being split 4 ways. Christine left with her house. And Kody and Robyn have their huge house so the land should be split 2 ways between Meri and Janelle.
Allison is the voice of reason. The voice of the sane people. David. You say he usnt going to try to screw them, when he is screwing them all along. His ganes, withholding, etc. Its all screwing with them. Oh thank goodness, by the end of me typing you saw reason 😂😂😂 I was getting so concerned for your patients.
Regarding the cake, which you are probably done with, for stability you can use straws cut at level with the top and cardboard to set the layers on. I hope you share the finished product! Whoops, the cake looked great! You’re very skilled!
What wasn't good for Kody and Janelle's marriage was him taking money from Janelle and buying Robin a big house and then not giving Janelle any family money so she could buy a house! To this day he hasn't given Janelle her money back!!!! And then has the nerve to say Janelle is going to screw him over!!!!!!!
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ENZO!!! So sweet. I think it will be very interesting and telling on Kody’s part to finally get the truth of the family finances. My hunch and prediction was that Meri funded most of it, and this proves my hunch. It was said on the show Meri would take the allotted amount for Leon’s college and pay the rest out of her pocket and with scholarships since the school was out of the family budget. Here she is saying she funded it 100%? And their vehicle?! But let’s not forget the bone Kody threw bc he ALLOWED Meri to get the wet bar. FFS this guy… Meanwhile, Robyn hasn’t funded the family in anyway. Her business put the family in red along with the debt she brought. Kody used the other wives incomes to fund his relationship with Robyn. Not only did he abandon these ladies emotionally and physically, he financially abandoned/ abused them. It’s really abhorrent behavior on his part. The fair thing to do would be to split the sale three ways. And that’s being generous.
Janelle worked outside the home diligently for almost the entirety of their marriage and brought in money to the household, worked as the family bookkeeper, and continued bringing money in via TLC. I can’t imagine Kody or Robyn put in any of their own money for Janelle’s business. He’s grasping at straws to not seem like the deadbeat we all know he is. And he needs to account for what happened to the money that was in the family fund and account for the money that he and Robyn took from the sale of the other wives’ Vegas homes to buy their home in Flagstaff before he starts dividing Coyote Pass for him and Robyn to each get equal shares.
Also Christine gave up her part of coyote pass in exchange of her house, why does Robyn have the mansion and a large part of coyote pass? Since Robyn and Kody have a million dollar house, coyote pass should be divided between Meri and Janelle. They are still screwing them over .
To make a cake with more layers I always make a building on the inside… cardboard in the shape of the cake that goes on top (covered with nice paper and cling foil) but a little bit smaller so you don’t see it and than make ‘pillars’ of wooden sticks to support the layer. (I paint the tips of the sticks with food colour so you can get them out when eating) Hope it helps 🎉 happy birthday!
botanical garden escape sounds like a fab plan personally! A place they can do like clamping on the property, have a garden shoppe, do empowered women retreats, and sell the flowers as both direct to consumer pick yourself thingy to have contracts with local florists or just farmers market farming. I think with the past sister wives 'fame' and I think Janelle is ready to take her knowledge in business and her hard work ethic and make this into something special with Maddy and Caleb, I think this is going to be amazing.
I’ve heard a lot of people asking why Kody would trap that real estate agent like that and tell him his life’s story. Good news - I know why he did that - I guarantee you, the TV show wanted to film the agent out there, and they were encouraging them to talk about his relationships/back story/topics of the show. But it really would be unhinged for him to just talk to someone that way if it wasn’t being filmed😂
i thought the way kody was talking to that real estate agent was absolutely UNHINGED
Right! I was like he doesn't care about this shit. He's just trying to make a sale!
The way he tried to start a chainsaw last time was unhinged 😂 There was no control of what he was doing.
@@little_miss_bad. It’s not that he doesn’t care, it’s because he’s actually too ignorant to realize just how ignorant he is.
Totes omg I was cringing 😬 like how much more did the real estate guy have to endure….😂😫😂
Him telling his life story was probably driving the man mad
It was me
"That was funny. He can be charming, right?" Allison, deadpan "no". Literally lol'd I love it!
Yeah, she wants no part in giving Kody grace.
Kody is double dipping!
Kody and Robyn are a unit. They are 1.
Then you have Meri and Janelle.
Kody knew exactly what he was doing when he labeled those parcels.
He's a snake in the grass!
Correct. And if the 3, Robyn contributed NOTHING financially to the marriage.
This is exactly what i think!
Actually Kody and Robin are taking 50%of the property/ they are one unit so everything that’s in his name is hers and viscera😢
The fact that he thinks requiring him to pay child support is "going after him" tells you exactly who Kody is. He's a sperm donor, not a father.
His interaction with the real estate agent is cringey.
His idea of an Alpha male is twisted. My husband is a perfect example of a righteous Alpha. He provides, protects and councils with me in all decisions regarding our family. He also does everything possible to encourage me to be my best self, supports my hopes and dreams and finds joy in my success, both in my career and at home.

I can just hear the real estate agent going back to the office "o.k. guys, so I have this client...."😂
When Kody was talking to the real estate agent about his wives I was cringing so hard!! I was dying
Happy birthday to your son!
He has nobody else to film with since the wives have left . He has to hold the poor guy hostage and force him to film with him and hear his rants as bad ravings about his divorces . Lol
Send in a forensic accountant/auditor to sort out and correct that tangled mess that Kody is trying to hide from Meri and Janelle!!😡😡

Yes!! 100%!
I flinched when he said “ditch those bitches.” Not cool, Kody. Btw I love the idea of baking and watching!
Oh me too! My jaw hit the floor soooo fast. I'd have been sooooo pissed. Meri and Jenn made shirts instead. Did you see them? 😅
@ I just saw the shirts. What a great way to clap back at Kody (and turn his meanness into $$ lol)
Tlc really needs to fire him. He is unhinged. They are promoting a man who abuses women
I gasped at this!

He didn't want to sleep with the Dogs, and he didn't want to sleep with children in their bed. Yup Janelle picked sleeping with the dogs over sleeping with him. Good Choice.
Does she sell a T-shirt that says "Pick the kids, pick the dogs".

Since Janelle left him, he quit working out! You can tell. She’s the one that had the gym set up for him in her garage.
I noticed too!
😂
And his six-pack abs. 😂😂😂
@@debbiebuttars5598 sharpie abs! 😅
18 kids to take care of but Meri only has one lot as she only had one child .. but helped pay for 18 ??? Ah ok
They were all supposed to be family. Meri bitched enough as well
She also got a giant house with a wet bar. She’s trying to spin it now. She got equal money so she contributed equally
Meri is the one who contributed the most, in Vegas nobody but Meri worked
@ Logan was in high school when they moved. For 14 years she worked and paid the light bill and water billl. While Janelle paid the mortgage. Tlc paid for those houses. Meri didn’t share assets. So try again.
Yes Savannah! He ignored the poor child- didn’t even give her a Christmas gift of see her the year he bought Robins kids those mini bikes.
Kody is evil
None of Janelle's children got anything from Kody and Robyn. Not even a measly phone call or text saying Merry Christmas. There was nothing stopping Robyn from going Christmas shopping for Kody's other children, even if Kody didn't. Robyn never gave a damn about the og children like she tries to portray when the cameras are rolling. I bet Leon and Christine's kids didn't get anything from Robyn and Kody either. The episode showed Truely and Ysabel at Robyn's, they maybe got one or two small gifts, but Robyn bought a second round of gifts for her kids, that already had gotten a huge pile of expensive gifts, she said so her kids won't "feel left out" when Ysabel and Truely are opening theirs. Robyn's adult kids and the younger two shouldn't be acting like spoiled rotten kids, that can't watch two of their step-siblings open one or two gifts without getting upset!! Robyn should've told them they already got their gifts. Especially her three adult children, they're old enough to know better than to act like that. All she had to do is explain to the younger two, the same thing. They weren't toddlers. What about the og children that got nothing at all? How do you think they felt, Robyn? She buys a second round of gifts for her kids because they can't watch poor Ysabel and Truely open one gift, meanwhile all the other children got nothing at all. Where's their empathy for the other children? They don't have any empathy or concern for anybody else and that is so messed up.
New show! Cooking with David & Allison while watching Sister Wives 😂
AND the profit from the house they just sold should have been divided because FAMILY money paid the down payment, plus the 3 OG wives always had outside businesses and jobs. Kody admits he only has failed businesses (which would have cost family money as well).
IMO all those failed businesses is how Kody moved assets and claimed tax deductions for the loss. Tax fraud
Meri stuck by Kody longer than his hairline did. 🤷♀️
😂 yes
😂😂😂😂😂
😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂😂
This comment wins the internet. 😂😂😂😂
Haha so true he looks like Medusa with that hair.
Crazy thing is legally he can't hire a real estate professional to sell that joint property without the other co owners having a say in who the agent is, and how they want it sold. All of that conversation should have been done with all of the owners there. I think that Kody was presenting it the way he did so that the realtor wouldn't clue into the fact that he hadn't been communicating with the other owners (Janelle and Meri) and that he didn't have the right to even put it on the market without their approval. Hence why he told the realtor that he had paid for one of the lots all by himself, and posing it as going through divorces. When in reality he wasn't married to either of the co-owners legally when they bought the property. The fact that neither Meri or Janelle have any idea that he is listing it with a realtor or that Kody had even brought a realtor to the property is pretty shady. and a huge red flag that he plans to screw them over. And I think Meri and Janelle both know it, although Meri is coming to the realization slowly. I mean Kody and Robyn have already screwed them over, over property. Meri and Janelle put the down payment on Robyn's house, they have gotten none of that money back after the "divorces". Notice that topic hasn't come up again. But they effectively have already been screwed out of that money, without their names on the deed they have no legal claim and no way to force Kody and Robyn to pay them back for the down payments. Now he's dealing with the coyote pass property without even telling them what He's doing. I think they can be pretty sure he's not looking out for anyone's interests but his and Robyns.
This 🔝 💯 and it’s making me crazy insane when he acts like he’s doing them a favor by speaking to them or letting them in on the information when they are co -owners. He’s a despicable human being.
I thought this too, but Kody doesn’t care about the law, rules, decency. I think the irs needs to investigate him
Hey you two! I'm a subscriber who never comments, but I just had to say that I LOVED this format with you, David baking, and Allison keeping you company.❤Reminds me of my husband and I. BTW your kitchen is BEAUTIFUL! I'm not even going to comment about Kody Brown because the man makes my skin crawl, but I think this was the best episode this season!
I operated a plant nursery for 8 years. It’s HARD. Very hard. It can work, but takes a lot of work.
I agree does Janelle understand this ?
@@pearlbubbles6885I doubt it. The Browns are good at starting random things they know nothing about, quitting then moving 😂
She thinks her so called fame will bring the money in
It’s funny how he never wants to admit the sneaky shit he pulled
OMGosh...Allison and I both said NO at the same time regarding your comment about Kody being charming in his comment about Janelle's dogs.
Flower farming as a business is high risk and hard! One hurricane can wipe them out. The cost of insurance will be massive. Janelle calls it a 'hobby farm'. Maddie and Caleb call it developing a working farm from raw land. Sometimes I think that Janelle is as disconnected from reality as Kody.
I agree. Wish her the best but…
Agree also. She can grow veggies in her backyard but flowers would demand perfect timing. They have a very short life. I don’t think this is the best of her ideas.
I imagine Maddie & Caleb will help guide the direction of the farm. They’re not in it to “lose the farm”!
I get the impression that Janelle is basically providing funding for Madison and Caleb, and possibly other family members, to have a venue business primarily.
I liked this different way of filming this video. It was like we were a fly on the wall. Pov to you guys just having a conversation in your kitchen. ❤
5:56 in Maryland theres a sunflower farm. You pay to park, for entry, then pay to purchase any flowers you pick. They also allow for photoshoots, you pay a small fee and can stay all day.
The way Kody described swimming with the family was DISGUSTING (as was the actual thing). Who tells a stranger that they stripped down to their underwear with their children 😮
I love when you heard him tell Gabe to not get it in his mouth because manure was in there. Like sir, you have other holes that everyone is submerging in poo water.
@@alixaugustine9599😮🤢
He said he went " skinny dipping " with his children. Skinny dipping means you are naked and to say that he went skinny dipping with his children, makes it sound creepy and strange. They weren't skinny dipping, they had underwear on. Once again, Kody uses a word in the wrong way.
@@BekEhr Another case wherein the truth actually sounds better than the lie, even though the truth still sucks.
Kody is bragging to the real estate agent. He wants the agent to say 4 wives wow but it appears the agent doesn’t care
Kody has a habit of thinking that if he loaned you $5, you now owe him any profit you make forever and ever, even if you returned that $5 back to him. He completely glosses over the fact that when Christine bought her house, she did take the down payment from the family fund - as did Robyn - but Christine gave that money back and made all the mortgage payments herself. She was under no obligation to split the proceeds with “the family”. I’m sure it was something similar with Janelle. They may have helped with the start-up, but she would have returned that money and did all the work to keep the business going herself. I’m sure that she was probably contributing to the family fund right until she decided to leave…and her money & profits went with her. Personally, I’d like to know if K & R returned any of the money they took for Robyn’s house to the family fund/Janelle/Meri when they sold the McMansion to buy another one.
They actually put into a trust that only they have access to.
I think they're going to harvest the flowers too. They will also create a beautiful place to visit and include cabins like a B&B. Happy Birthday, Enzo!
I believe Kody and Robin have yet to give Meri & Janelle the $$ they put for the down payment their house. Also if you look at R & K house of paintings and chotskies those two have been taking the lions share of the family$$. I don’t agree that Janelle owes K anything. He has taken advantage of those ladies.
“We’re overwhelmed parents, so you’re going to watch me bake a cake for my kid while we gossip about this train wreck of a reality tv family.”
I’ve never loved this channel more.
I worked as the accountant at a flower co-op - the place florists come to get their flowers and decorations.
Flower farming is a hustle. People are up at like 4 am getting their grind on selling flowers, plus there is the actual growing of the flowers and harvesting and getting them to market. Running the business part behind it.
I will say that most of the people I worked with were very happy and liked what they did. It’s a little like wine culture.
I went out to a flower farm of one of the board members once and it was absolutely beautiful land full of tulips and roses and giant sunflowers among others.
But I also saw the grind that everyone went through and I hope for Janelle that she does find the peace that she is seeking. Either with this or something else.
Leon’s college was discussed in an old episode, they wanted to attend a more expensive college so at least on the show it was said they would get an amount equivalent to the state school the others attended then the rest Meri or scholarships would cover. But then Meri also admitted she didn’t actually know what the other paid for and didn’t.
Meri & Leon should have gotten the equivalent of what the other kids got and then Meri should have paid the difference, but I did read somewhere (a long time ago) that Meri just paid the whole bill.
Congratulations on reaching over100K subscribers. Well deserved!!
That poor realtor, why did Kyle need to give so much information?😂😂
Kodys got a crush on that handsome realtor lol
No wonder Robin wanted Meri to hang on for years. She wanted access to her money and help pay the "family bills.".
Yup, same reason Robyn keeps pretending she wants Janelle to come back. Robyn thought the other women would never leave and that she would continue financially abusing them. She thought they would be happy with the crumbs Kody would throw their way once a year, but the jokes on Robyn. They wised up and got the hell away from them.
Great birthday cake! I love that you have this tradition. Your kids will remember this with great fondness that you did this special thing.
Her business was an MLM style business. He did NOT fund it, it doesn't work that way. You gain through a downline of other resellers. Likely, if at all, he gave her a few hundred dollars.. but the thing is, Kody does not fund anything to do with his life. He uses his wives as producers (Watch Notes to Self 444 who used to be in the AUB for more information on this) So he is not funding his family, his family is funding him. In Kody's eyes.. Kody IS "The Family" and all roads lead to his wants/desires/needs. He can't stand that these women took their hard work and investments and walked away with them.
My understanding is that the starter kit is $250
Totally agree and now he is going to have “to work” to keep Robin happy.
I love it that you are wearing "pair-look" sweaters! And making a cake while watching the show, wow!
3 ways. Kody&Robyn, Meri and Janelle. He got the mansion and the 4 acres. Actually Robyn and kody should get zero of CP.
Happy Birthday, Enzo!!!🎉🎉🎉🎂🎂🎂🍨🍨🍨
Its should be split 2 ways since Janelle and Meri's house money went to Robyn's house. Kodi and Robyn shouldn't get anything from Coyote pass.
Also Janelle and Meri should get more because they contributed to the McMansion
This was so chaotic! Alison's tired, boy! 😂😂😂
Flower export is a big thing here (the Netherlands) and it is indeed lot of science. I visited the area hete with all the greenhouses, the water is dripped automatic, it is huge. I also, ofcourse, visited the outside tulip and other fields, beautiful. Anyway I like how David states what he wants to make (sounds cool, the ski slope cake) asks how one gets to let the different pieces stay up and then says he doesn't know. (must watch old Cake Boss episodes again, he put pieces of wood in the centre sometimes)
Kody just fell in love with that handsome realtor
Him not paying for leon was his way of punishing meri like she said for 20 years then he'd work on their rekationship which never happened
Enzo and I have the same birthday! How cool! Happy birthday to Enzo, my birthday buddy.
You are a great Dad! Love seeing your son with his birthday cake! Alison, You & your sons are blessed...
Would you tell Allison this if it was the other way around?
It baffles me why anyone expects reason or common sense from someone who is purportedly an alcoholic. Once you realize it, if you have any experience with alcoholics, you can't unsee it.
I suspect more than alcohol.👀
Tip. Use butter instead of oil. I learned that from a baker. It taste so much better! Not to mention you are not using horrible oil.
Another tip. Butter, cream cheese and powder sugar you have homemade cream cheese frosting. I use to love frosting in the can but once I started making my own I can taste the chemicals in the can frosting.
Frosting is the easiest thing in the world to make! Can't stand the canned stuff!
Don’t forget real vanilla extract to go with the cream cheese, butter and powdered sugar for the frosting. You can also add a dash of heavy cream while beating the the frosting ingredients so it isn’t too thick and it gives it a bit of a whipped cream taste. Yum!
They are using ingredients and brands that typically* are dairy-free (* sometimes brands change their ingredients). If so, butter and cream cheese wouldn't be options here. But good tips that I didn't know before 😊 edited to say nevermind, whipped cream. Happy birthday!
@@crystalgarciaherring5139 yep you’re right I did forget the vanilla!
Kody did not say that he would divide it EQUALLY among the 4 adults.
Wasn't that implied? He didn't say it would be unequal. It actually made me think maybe he wasn't going to screw Meri and Janelle. If he thinks of the property that he paid for as being split between the four then he should be thinking of all the lots as being owned by everyone equally, if not legally. That is what they have implied by all their talk of redividing the property. And I remember talk of plots in names being a convenience to get everything bought.
Not sure how they split their money to say he paid and not anyone else. They have never been clear what this family fund was and the allowances that went to each wife. Or what money would be considered to belong to only one of them.
@@kirielbranson4843 Kody has always said that Meri doesn't deserve for than 2 acres of the 14 acres. That's 14% of the land. That's not equal based on what they have paid in.
Sad that contrary to Meri’s statement she is a doormat. She only has 1 kid and had to pay for their own college when other kids tuition came out of the family fund! She allowed that to be okay. Also I agree that it is pure BS that the land is being split 4 ways. Christine left with her house. And Kody and Robyn have their huge house so the land should be split 2 ways between Meri and Janelle.
Allison is the voice of reason. The voice of the sane people. David. You say he usnt going to try to screw them, when he is screwing them all along. His ganes, withholding, etc. Its all screwing with them. Oh thank goodness, by the end of me typing you saw reason 😂😂😂 I was getting so concerned for your patients.
Meri has been very generous to this family. She also paid for part of Aspen’s wedding.
Regarding the cake, which you are probably done with, for stability you can use straws cut at level with the top and cardboard to set the layers on. I hope you share the finished product! Whoops, the cake looked great! You’re very skilled!
What wasn't good for Kody and Janelle's marriage was him taking money from Janelle and buying Robin a big house and then not giving Janelle any family money so she could buy a house! To this day he hasn't given Janelle her money back!!!! And then has the nerve to say Janelle is going to screw him over!!!!!!!
Kody and Robyn used all of the women financially. They have zero remorse for anything they do.
Meri paid for Leon's school, Christine paid for Izzy to have back surgery, Janelle an RV.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ENZO!!! So sweet.
I think it will be very interesting and telling on Kody’s part to finally get the truth of the family finances. My hunch and prediction was that Meri funded most of it, and this proves my hunch. It was said on the show Meri would take the allotted amount for Leon’s college and pay the rest out of her pocket and with scholarships since the school was out of the family budget. Here she is saying she funded it 100%? And their vehicle?! But let’s not forget the bone Kody threw bc he ALLOWED Meri to get the wet bar. FFS this guy…
Meanwhile, Robyn hasn’t funded the family in anyway. Her business put the family in red along with the debt she brought. Kody used the other wives incomes to fund his relationship with Robyn. Not only did he abandon these ladies emotionally and physically, he financially abandoned/ abused them. It’s really abhorrent behavior on his part. The fair thing to do would be to split the sale three ways. And that’s being generous.
Janelle worked outside the home diligently for almost the entirety of their marriage and brought in money to the household, worked as the family bookkeeper, and continued bringing money in via TLC. I can’t imagine Kody or Robyn put in any of their own money for Janelle’s business. He’s grasping at straws to not seem like the deadbeat we all know he is. And he needs to account for what happened to the money that was in the family fund and account for the money that he and Robyn took from the sale of the other wives’ Vegas homes to buy their home in Flagstaff before he starts dividing Coyote Pass for him and Robyn to each get equal shares.
I like seeing David as a dad. Helps me shift my dislike of his professional opinion to love of his role as a present dad!!
On tv yeah
David!!! We agree, it should be split three ways!!!
Also Christine gave up her part of coyote pass in exchange of her house, why does Robyn have the mansion and a large part of coyote pass?
Since Robyn and Kody have a million dollar house, coyote pass should be divided between Meri and Janelle.
They are still screwing them over .
I love that you made his cake! What a special memory for him
Why would he think that Janelle asking for child support would be screwing him over?? He should already be doing that.
My mom is a baker and you would normally use long wooden sticks. Sort of like chopsticks. You would stick about 2 in to keep the layers in place.
Meri and Janelle should be suing Kody and Robyn for a share of their house equity since their money paid for that too
Kody keeps saying he paid for a lot, but so did Meri!
Straws or dowels for your cake strength. Love your cake and watch along episode!
That was an awesome birthday cake!! Happy Birthday, Enzo!
Come on Dave…… canned frosting??? Your Italian Mother is disappointed! Lol
To make a cake with more layers I always make a building on the inside… cardboard in the shape of the cake that goes on top (covered with nice paper and cling foil) but a little bit smaller so you don’t see it and than make ‘pillars’ of wooden sticks to support the layer. (I paint the tips of the sticks with food colour so you can get them out when eating) Hope it helps 🎉 happy birthday!
It should be 3 ways because Kody and Robyn are one unit - Robyn never worked to earn anything.
Do you have chopsticks? Put them in the stack to keep it straight
I use thin wooden dowels but those are a good idea too.
Kody has never counted the cost of any of his life choices.
botanical garden escape sounds like a fab plan personally! A place they can do like clamping on the property, have a garden shoppe, do empowered women retreats, and sell the flowers as both direct to consumer pick yourself thingy to have contracts with local florists or just farmers market farming. I think with the past sister wives 'fame' and I think Janelle is ready to take her knowledge in business and her hard work ethic and make this into something special with Maddy and Caleb, I think this is going to be amazing.
You are awesome Dave. My husband always made our children’s birthday cakes!!🎉 Happy Birthday to Enzo
I don't believe Janelle owed Cody and Robin any of her profits. Consider the inequity of Janelle's living expenses and Robin's living expenses.
I’d love to see J&M sue K&R for Conversion, & Unjust Enrichment!⚖️⚖️⚖️
Agree it definitely should be divided 3 ways! If Meri and Janelle had any sense they should got after their share of his house and his land!
Aww, love that you bake for your kids.❤🎂Happy birthday, Enzo!🎉🎈
(Dowel rods)😉🎂ya need structural integrity!
My dad used to bake birthday cakes for me and all my sisters. ❤
Taking Christine out of it shouldn't it be divided 3 ways between him, Meri and Janelle as Robyn never contributed anything financially? 🤔
I really enjoyed this commentary with u guys out of the office.. have a great week ❤
I’ve heard a lot of people asking why Kody would trap that real estate agent like that and tell him his life’s story. Good news - I know why he did that - I guarantee you, the TV show wanted to film the agent out there, and they were encouraging them to talk about his relationships/back story/topics of the show.
But it really would be unhinged for him to just talk to someone that way if it wasn’t being filmed😂
