Suuuuuper interested in plant medicine! I've been able to work with peyote and ayahuasca, as well as kambo, mushrooms, etc. It was an intense time of growth and letting go. Being raised in the LDS church left its scars, and my family was as close to fundie as you could get without more wives. I've been microdosing with mushrooms ever since and it's truly mother earth's medicine!
@@TheForestCrone I love this for you! They literally saved my life. We are doing a podcast on this. We can’t talk about it on our Lives but we can do a podcast.
Omg the adhd comment 😂 I honestly follow along with her perfectly and fill in the blanks on my own. I didn’t even realize something was left out until Cory said something lol but I have adhd too! 😅
This is for Cory: before they tried to baptize me, I had to earn money from house chores or me and my brothers’ legit shoveling and newspaper businesses to tithe. My dad helped me calculate the amount (10% I usually paid in dimes 😁). When the missionaries stop by my house I give them homemade brownies or cookies and a cold drink. They know I’m not ever going on their conversion list, but they’d often offer to mow. I never let them but in hindsight I think they’d prefer yardwork to knocking on doors and I should’ve just said “sure”. This was a very good live!
Thanks for the breakdown! Could you help me with something unrelated: My OKX wallet holds some USDT, and I have the seed phrase. (alarm fetch churn bridge exercise tape speak race clerk couch crater letter). What's the best way to send them to Binance?
Thank you for gathering the courage to explain the AUB religion to the public. One would think that the AUB would encourage members to go public about their faith in order to distinguish themselves from the Kingston clan and Warren Jeffs' FLDS. I suspect Kody started the show, thinking he would become such a PR poster child for the AUB. I wonder when Kody first admitted to himself that he was failing at polygamy. I have so many questions. I am not sure what you have addressed already. Just some of my questions would be: 1) when did you leave the AUB? When you first divorced your husband, were you still full members when you got a divorce and did you guys each seek releases? 2) some people have said that the AUB has denied applications for release that are based on DV allegations. Is that accurstr? If so, is that something the current prophets intent to change? 3) I understand that the faith encourages members to only marry another with the religion. Does AUB permit marriage with FLDS or is conversion to AUB faith required? 4) when you left the AUB, did you feel pulled towards LDS? If so, how were you received by LDS? 5) I know your dad is the prophet. Is he the only prophet or is there a management board of prophets? Is your dad the final say on matters of doctrine? 6) we have learned that Kody brown and Robyn were against COVID vaccines. Was this part of the religious doctrine or was this a political issue for Kody? 7) therapy support: The Browns opened up their family therapy sessions for the cameras. I suspect that they had some hurdles to climb to find an open minded therapist willing to work with the family in day to day relationship issues. Has the AUB tried to cultivate relationships with therapists, doctors and even lawyers so that it's members can feel comfortable with finding open minded peop,e. 8) a lot of people have stated that the AUB barred minorities from being members of the church. Is this still the case? Do you know any AUB families of African American or Asian descent? 9) what is expected, actions and behavior wise, of members in good standing? I assume 10% tithing. What about weekly attendance? 10) Several Brown children have discussed honoring the Sabbath similar to Jews. Can you explain that part of the doctrine? 11) beyond Mekanie's mom, are the rest of the parental units watching your podcast? Has your dad commented about your podcast? 12) I am a divorce and adoption attorney in Missouri. I asked a few weeks ago, under another video, as to whether or not the AUB has set up any formal guidelines and expectations of financial child support and maintenance/alimony for supporting each wife during the marriage and even if there is a release sought? 13) I am fairly certain that a creative attorney would be able to create a number of legal fictions that would secure each wives rights inside and outside of an AUB relationship. Has your father, as a prophet, made any efforts to bring predictability and stability to their created unions? If not, do you think your father w look ukd be open to said discussions? I would suspect that an attorney who is NOT in the AUB but believes in the right to create a consensual relationship would be a smart addition to the AUB family of professionals. What does the AUB recommend for estate planning to ensure financial stability if the husband passes away first? 14) when and why did AUB lose its tax exempt status? 15) it has been reported that Kody and Robyn are now members of a local Pentecostal church. Does their choice of new denomination surprise you or is it more compatible with AUB than night? Finally, 16) Does the AUB do the baptism of the dead like the LDS? If there are differences, can you explain the differences? 17) do you think your dad would ever agree to come in your podcast to explain the faith in better detail for those wanting to be accurate in it's understanding while trying not to conflate FLDS with AUB. 18) are women the only one who can a release or can men get a release? I don’t expect you to answer all of these as a comment, but any you do would be great. I asked these as possible future video topics for you to possibly,y address# have you considered setting up a moderator to put together your questions and responses? I am so thrilled that you guys are doing this.
I have a theory about Kody’s “safe” speech. If Meri was abusive to everyone (verbally & emotionally), then all the stories make sense. Why no one checks on her now, why the wives don’t talk to her. It would also explain Kody melting the ring, and why Kody wouldn’t tell her he was done. She isn’t “safe” to talk to or tell things to. To me he is using trauma speech. PS I do not believe he is a victim, but that he has adopted these things he has heard people say
I love you guys. I love James. I love pop psychic I like Sarah and I like Katie. She gets all the info and I love Amanda with her humor and so those are the ones I watch.
Have you ever seen the clips of Robyn ‘break dancing’? Lmao, look that scene up. As far as being too tall to model - it’s true. I had several interviews w an airline who had offered me employment I’m 5’2 ish. I turned it down bc of the relocation and needing another full time job just to be on call - so i referred an attractive friend of mine - she was turned down at 6’2” for being too tall for safety in the aircraft - go figure.
@@NotestoSelf444 You were the first podcast I have ever subscribed to and I am intensely enjoying your videos. I am 3 weeks from getting my masters degree in Behavior Analysis, and mentally analyzing the behavior in the sister wives family is my break from work and school. For my work I am a registered behavior technician working to improve the lives of kids with autism and other developmental delays. Interacting with you online is the highlight of my week!
I know that a lot of people who grew up in fundamentalist groups leave and go to the LDS church, did you or Cory do that or you left Mormonism altogether? P.S. Love your lives!
I find it interesting that the Mormons believe in this celestial afterlife and that’s what you’re doing here on earth is to make sure you get there yet. They’re so into survival on this planet with the extra food learning how to hunt there’s a economy there.
James is the man, I almost always learn something new from him - like his guest last week, her knowledge of the law and the time she took to explain everything was very valuable information. I understand why he’s your mom’s favorite, Melanie. He’s got that intelligence and common sense I’m used to, he’s one of the best. Suki on TLC needs him to be a referee for Kody and Robyn in the Tell Alls because TLC never gives them the hard questions that the ex wives get. He has contact info I believe on the information part of his channel description.

Also, Pop Legal Psyc podcast has given you a shout out. I think one of them said that they have reached out to you.
Yes, I’m planning a time with them now.

Someone said not a good cookie smelling bakery. They must have never smelt bread baking. It's heavenly.
@@deemattina6234 I know I thought the same thing. I love fresh baked bread
When did your mom start her very first thoughts of leaving and how long did it take her from that point to actually leave?
We’ve been asking her to leave for over 20 years. She has left many many times before. This one has been the longest for sure,almost 5 years now.
Pop psych has an email in the information portion of their channel and I think they’re in the Denver area, but they do zoom like interviews too
Robyn is not shy. Robyn is conforming to what Kody wants of her. BIG DIFFERENCE.
Oh! But she’s not shy with him! The have a close intimacy bond! Means, she gives him sex he likes. Which isn’t intimacy by itself.
@@cathywithac very big
Are any of these going to be posted to Spotify? I noticed you have a podcast over there. I don't think i saw anything new.
Spotify locked me out a few months ago and I haven’t taken the time to figure out how to get back in. I actually started looking into it last night.
Not only was Robyn's stepdad in the room while she gave birth, he was at the business end with a camera.
