Thank you so much for acknowledging the devastation experienced by some LGBT partners upon losing their spouses when their family of origin swoops in and takes over. I personally went through this and it absolutely wrecked me emotionally as well as financially, but at the time I had no legal standing to prevent any of it. Support for marriage equality goes far beyond the ability to have a lovely ceremony… it extends through their lives together and into end-of-life issues.
I was a pallbearer for a good friend. At evangelical service, all the preacher did was go on and on about his church and religion! Nothing about the person lying there! When a opportunity came up to share , I shot up and shared how we could be winning in a sailboat race, and he would literally sacrifice his position to retrieve a piece of garbage on the water! And the clown behind the pulpit chimes in with I quote; it doesn’t matter what good you do in life, what only matters is accepting Jesus is all that matters! I could’ve walked out in that moment!
This reminds me of what I saw Ron Desantis do the other day at a funeral for a Florida Highway Patrol Officer. It was a very large funeral with hundreds of law-enforcement, sheriffs, deputies, and patrol officers from across the state and across the nation. There were many heartfelt tearjerker speeches. And then Ron DeSantis got up on stage, making a lot of noise with his kitten heels, some obnoxious, almost hostile speech, and ended it with God bless Florida. I don’t even think he mentioned the 26-year-old Florida patrol officer, who was murdered, and the speech felt angry and hostile.
Several years ago, I attended an evangelical service in a small Southern mountain town where the preacher went through all of the fire and brimstone $hit and at the end, held an alter call trying to get new members. Thank you, Jesus!
My SIL funeral....her step dad, a fundamental Baptist preacher, was the officiant. His first words were that, although Cheryl was a good person, she was going to hell because she wasn't "saved." And, we were all going to hell as well, because we weren't saved. He preached for an hour on this subject and then the funeral was over. It was brutal.
I’ve had it with our broken prison system! They refuse to separate people who would benefit from mental help, to actual criminals. They DO NOT BELONG IN THE SAME PLACE. If they need more people to help make this happen. Great. Create jobs!
My dad was always on the eccentric side, but so loved & so liked by so many. He also wanted a Viking funeral. You know, burning long boat & all. A friend of mine found a cardboard model of a longboat in a bookstore. Our daughter built it, & after the military salute at the cemetery, friends & family watched as the long boat was placed in our swimming pool, lit on fire, & everyone chanted, “Lo there do I see my people…” from The 13th Warrior. Dad got his Viking funeral! ❤
Same thing here. I did the DNA test on Ancestry and found out when my uncle was young he knocked up a woman and refused to marry her. Then a few years later, he married another woman and had 3 more kids who he later divorced. He completely cut off from these women and kids. His 3rd family produced the cousins I knew and grew up with. But because of Ancestry, I have discovered and been in contact with these newly found cousins.The kicker is my Dad knew ALL about this and never said a word.
Caught my wife cheating, 2002, kicked her out, divorced her. Years later, my daughter tells me her mom's boyfriend has another family 30 miles away (still in Houston), they break up. The ex calls me a week later, expecting me to be the shoulder to cry on. I have never tried so hard to not laugh hysterically.
From a pie, shitting on your pants, accidentally killing someone, a secret relationship in the family, reading someone's diary... this episode is hella WILD! Good job Kylie, KB, Jessica & Pams 🩷🩷🩷 congrats on 100k subs!!
Funerals so often turn into deifying people whom were complex and like all of us, nowhere near to perfection. It’s sad. I appreciate it when families choose to do celebration services for the person’s life … a bit after the passing. When the immediate horror and shock has moved into a place of celebration for the beauty they gave to others and the world while they were here. Music and warmth and celebration. I think that kind of honesty brings more closure. More peace. *Hard to believe it hasn’t even been 15 years since gay couples could legally marry at the federal level. I’ll never forget that evening when the WH lit up in rainbow colors. During the height of the AIDS crisis so many life partners - husbands and wives in life - could not even be in the hospital with their partner. CONGRATULATIONS ON 100,000 subscribers. Can’t wait for your silver plaque.
OMG!! The funeral one! I’m 18 and one of my best friends (17) was killed in a car accident and the Pastor kept calling her JAYLA AND JAYLIN…her name is Jaleigh….he wasn’t even close… I’ve never been so ANGRY!
I was in the Army 20 years and FUBAR was definitely used all the time….along with BOHICA which is bend over here it comes again! Got to love military acronyms! Love your show ladies!
Yalllll, the pastor at my grandfather's funeral went on a 20 minute tangent about cats not going to heaven.. in the middle of the service.. my grandparents did not have any cats, or any pets for that matter. When I tell you that my cousin and I were holding hands crying- we were, but from laughter. Wtf.
My fathers funeral was a complete mess. My dad was 98 and went weekly to church until covid. At first meeting, he apologised for not visiting my dad when alive confessing he thought he was dead. The minister obviously didn't listen to us. During the service he addressed his daughter (he had 3 daughters and a son) and his two grandchildren ( he has 6 grandchildren and 7 great grandchildren). We all looked at each other and smiled! My dad would have laughed!
When my mother died, I just told my father and sister I didn't want an open casket. I already saw her lying dead in the hospital bed, I didn't want to see her like that. But at least the service was not disrespectful
You’re 100% right. I remember my mom found my diary from my years. I don’t even know if I would want to reread the things that I wrote in there. But I do remember her saying, “ a crazy person, writes down everything”.. just to let me know that she had read my diary and did not approve. She also didn’t speak to me for six years after that. I feel really violated, but I was being punished for her violating my privacy..
@@HH-gv8mx I’m so sorry to hear that. How awful! I write everything down too. I have years of journals. But again, not for public consumption. I’ve had my privacy violated by the moving crew I hired who, behind my back, read the journals next to my bed and then asked me about my beliefs!
@@HH-gv8mxI’m so sorry 😢that easily could’ve been turned on her, like “only a crazy person snoops on their loved ones & indirectly drops hints about it”. Obviously she had her own issues to work through. That’s wasn’t your fault & im sorry for your experience.
My sister's friend was on vacation in Mexico. She was at an event of some kind, and suddenly she realized she needed to run to the bathroom as fast as she could. She didn't quite make it, but she lucked out in one way. The crap was trapped inside her pantyhose, so she just took them off, threw them away, cleaned herself up and walked back out with no one the wiser.
I've gotten up and walked out of nonsense like that! I've had it with people pushing their religion in any way. You can't have a conversation without someone injecting their religion into everything. Why would your god who supposedly knows everything care about what you got, won etc... They undermine their own belief system with their ridiculousl behavior
Like, you prayed to God and he made the rain go away, yet made your husband and niece suffer with cancer for years.... Right. That's a real convo I had with an aunt. She's deep in that crap, and QANON as well... It's crazy.
I had to go to several open casket "visitng hours viewings" and funerals before I reached age 12. As we knelt next to the casket, I was sooo sure that they would move a tiny bit, or twitch or something. I was scared shitless. I still cannot stand the smell of a florist shop to this day, I'm 64.
Great episode, as always! I was thinking about a dear friend. Her wife passed away about 10 years ago. The family absolutely took over the funeral and when all was said and done, my friend was listed on the obituary as the "caregiver" and she had to sit in the back of the church. So sad and disgusting 😢
Cremation leaves some porous bone, which they grind up and that’s what you get back. No ash is left, bc it’s so Hot. That’s why they’re called Cremated Remains. I worked in a Mortuary/Cemetery office for 17 years,and that’s the story.
When I was very young I had a “second mother” (12 years older who babysat me a lot!) who lived up the street. I frequently spent the night at her house. Her father was a very gruff, large (and obese) man, who terrified me! He died from heart disease when I was still young (about 8?). I went to the open casket funeral, of course, with my real family and my second mom. I can still remember thinking “he doesn’t look so scary now”. 😏 I didn’t touch him but I really don’t think that would have bothered me either. I was just happy to not be scared. 😉 Now I work in a hospice care center and frequently see people dying and recently dead people. Still doesn’t bother me but I honestly don’t see the reason behind embalming and burying people in a box that costs nearly as much as a car. 🙄 Just cremate the remains, spread the ashes, have a memorial service. ☺️
my husband doesn't care about what is done after he dies. Being the wife, I have made the decision of both of us. We are both being cremated, no service whatsoever. If his mom is still alive she will shit bricks about it, but I or my husband just don't care. Love you all.
Jeniffer is actually immensely intelligent; whether or not they say it, they both are! If you can FLIP a Trump lover like me and additionally encourage me to do more research politically and finally wake up to reality, that is what I call strong, mindful intelligence. And I am extremely thankful.
My friend's dad went to Federal prison for counterfeiting and the clueless officiant said, "I understand he was a successful printer. Perhaps some of his clients are here now."
I often sing at funerals. (I’m asked to, it’s not a weird hobby or anything) anyway, I attended funeral up here in the Scottish Highlands a few years ago, where the minister didn’t know the deceased and he waited until after the various eulogies from family and friends and then he said ‘I feel I must confess the sin of envy today, because whilst I didn’t know her, hearing all these wonderful stories now, I am so envious not to have met her..” which I thought was really smart and stylish x
I always knew I was adopted. I tried finding birth mom when I was 25. I always knew I had half siblings. I did 23&me back in 2019 hoping one day a sibling would pop up. Starting lockdown 2020 THAT MARCH, I found birth mom and my 2 half brothers!!! (My half sister had just passed away that Oct 19). It’s a very long story. But still today I’m in full contact w bio mom and my 2 awesome half brothers. It’s a very awesome story !!!💙. I’m very lucky and fortunate.
Explaining how Josh has to explain what he’s gonna do as far as his meals ago just reminded me that I’m pretty sure I do this with my woman friends. I’ve been talking about the last couple of weeks about my plan for getting a new car and didn’t really understand what I was doing until right now. 😂
Pumps...Girl please just start getting Depends pull ups! I use them for the days when my IBS flares up. They're a lifesaver & saved so many pairs of pants!
Omg! This sounds like my aunt's funeral in Del City last year! And he was such a nice guy, but once he got the hellfire and damnation stuff, it was like a switch flipped. Crazy stuff!
The priest who officiated the my Dad’s funeral was asking about personality traits, values, charities etc. The priest didn’t know what to say when I said that my Dad was a mean son of a bitch and hated everyone and it was ok that he was dead.My Father verbally terrorized me almost every day. The funeral officiant ended up saying, “He golfed a lot”. There was nothing else.
My mom is in her 80’s and she’s one of 4 natural born children to her parents but her parents actually raised 7 children 3 of whom were born to other members of the family that were either too young or financially unstable to support them themselves. I am 8 years younger than my sister and one of the youngest cousins etc and didn’t know 3 of my aunts/uncle were actually my cousins etc until I was in my early thirties. Anyway I remember talking to my mom one day and she was talking about her mother being an only child and how she had always wanted a large family and that’s one of the reasons she was more than willing to raise other people’s children. I wondered how you could be raised alone and not have been spoiled etc etc, anyway my mom tells me a whopper of a family secret. That my grandma was an only child because during wartime her father had left to serve and never returned. I’m not sure if they assumed he died or had been misinformed that he died but long story short, years passed and my great grandmother was living as a widow raising my grandma alone and one day they were in the local Big Bear grocery store and around the twist of a grocery aisle they came face to face with my great grandfather, alive and well with his newest wife and other set of kids… he apparently had come back from the war but moved only to the other side of town and started a new life/ family. We couldn’t imagine that today with cell phones and social media but even almost 20 years after finding this out I’m still completely mind blown in shock…
At my Dad’s funeral- the priest couldn’t even pronounce his name right. It’s an easy name to pronounce)Through the whole funeral he kept pronouncing his name wrong. 😡
I continuously kept a diary from my early teen years. When I married, my jealous, controlling husband kept wanting to read them 'to see what I said about him' so I destroyed them all on a bonfire. I wish I had just hidden them so I could re-read them now, age 65!
At my dad’s funeral no one cried. We all knew him as an abusive person who not only beat us all up and abused us emotionally, but also sexually abused my sister. He beat up my mother a week before he died. And the preacher went on and on about what a swell guy he was.
Recently had a funeral for a pianist at my church and the whole thing was a sermon about the end times coming and our need to repent. I've been to like 6 funerals and 4 of them were like this.
I think the difference between the diary and an instagram page is an instagram/Spotify is public. A diary is literally meant to be private, it’s not for public eyes otherwise the person would have just posted the stuff in their diary on insta/social media. It was definitely sinister
The 23 and me one I did that when I was 23 and my half sister 18 at the time did it too, I kid you not we found out that her dad had had two more kids while he was married to my mom and he didn't know. My half sister and I told my mom and she eventually Divorced my step-dad (half sisters dad) for cheating, we also found out my mom's dad isn't actually her dad, didn't tell her that part.
About the ashes. I know I may be in the minority here, but I don't get people's attitude with remains. When i watch true crime and learn that murderers get time, sometimes substantial time, off their sentence in exchange for telling the location of the victim's body, I shake my head. The victim is gone. They aren't coming back. I think it is more important that the murderer serves their full sentence than knowing something that is not going to change the situation.
Pumps don't worry about the serial killer thing. I would hazard a guess that a huge majority of serial killers have a history of horrific abuse. Whenever I learn the history of these people, almost without exception, there was abuse in their past.
I went to a rural Chinese funeral. They burned a 7' high paper house, full sized paper black BMW, trillions in prayer money. Preist had a yellow mitre, tent painted with scenes of the fish story like a marvel comic book. Buddy bought in van loads of fireworks which were set off for days. Lots of feasting a drinking white liqour.
Oh he was so wonderful, what a great son, brother…. The guy never saw or supported his only child, and died stripping copper wire off electrical lines, oh ya he was wonderful
My best friend in highschool was a trans man. He struggled with alcoholism and drug addiction. He overdosed and his family deadnamed him during his funeral and on his gravestone. His brother even got his deadname tattooed. I heard a story once told from the drag queen eureka that her friend was a trans woman in the south soing s work. She was murdered. Stabbed to death. And her family shaved her bald and put her in a suit for her funeral. Funerals are scary for trans people....
The day hasn't even started and already I'VE HAD IT.
I hope it was good :) and the day keeps getting better for you.
Thank you so much for acknowledging the devastation experienced by some LGBT partners upon losing their spouses when their family of origin swoops in and takes over.

I’m so sorry that happened to you. ❤
Amen thanks for sharing your experience, the people who tried to keep LGBTQ folks from getting married are just evil IMHO

I was a pallbearer for a good friend. At evangelical service, all the preacher did was go on and on about his church and religion! Nothing about the person lying there! When a opportunity came up to share , I shot up and shared how we could be winning in a sailboat race, and he would literally sacrifice his position to retrieve a piece of garbage on the water! And the clown behind the pulpit chimes in with I quote; it doesn’t matter what good you do in life, what only matters is accepting Jesus is all that matters! I could’ve walked out in that moment!
This reminds me of what I saw Ron Desantis do the other day at a funeral for a Florida Highway Patrol Officer. It was a very large funeral with hundreds of law-enforcement, sheriffs, deputies, and patrol officers from across the state and across the nation. There were many heartfelt tearjerker speeches. And then Ron DeSantis got up on stage, making a lot of noise with his kitten heels, some obnoxious, almost hostile speech, and ended it with God bless Florida.
I don’t even think he mentioned the 26-year-old Florida patrol officer, who was murdered, and the speech felt angry and hostile.
Sounds like dude was a bad person, I don't trust anyone who thinks you need a God or Jesus to be moral, or even a good person.
That is a good reason for not ever participating in organized again!
Several years ago, I attended an evangelical service in a small Southern mountain town where the preacher went through all of the fire and brimstone $hit and at the end, held an alter call trying to get new members. Thank you, Jesus!
My SIL funeral....her step dad, a fundamental Baptist preacher, was the officiant. His first words were that, although Cheryl was a good person, she was going to hell because she wasn't "saved."

My dad was always on the eccentric side, but so loved & so liked by so many. He also wanted a Viking funeral. You know, burning long boat & all. A friend of mine found a cardboard model of a longboat in a bookstore.

which I thought was really smart and stylish x
I'm addicted to your adult sense of humour, pettiness, and your political view
I always knew I was adopted. I tried finding birth mom when I was 25. I always knew I had half siblings. I did 23&me back in 2019 hoping one day a sibling would pop up. Starting lockdown 2020 THAT MARCH, I found birth mom and my 2 half brothers!!! (My half sister had just passed away that Oct 19). It’s a very long story. But still today I’m in full contact w bio mom and my 2 awesome half brothers. It’s a very awesome story !!!💙. I’m very lucky and fortunate.
Explaining how Josh has to explain what he’s gonna do as far as his meals ago just reminded me that I’m pretty sure I do this with my woman friends. I’ve been talking about the last couple of weeks about my plan for getting a new car and didn’t really understand what I was doing until right now. 😂
Josh is a work of art. I adore him. ❤
No. You misunderstood Jen.
She said, “Piece of work!”
Obsessed with you all!
Happy 100k❤
9:00 Fresh from the refrigerator! Lol
Pumps...Girl please just start getting Depends pull ups! I use them for the days when my IBS flares up. They're a lifesaver & saved so many pairs of pants!
Omg! This sounds like my aunt's funeral in Del City last year! And he was such a nice guy, but once he got the hellfire and damnation stuff, it was like a switch flipped. Crazy stuff!
The priest who officiated the my Dad’s funeral was asking about personality traits, values, charities etc. The priest didn’t know what to say when I said that my Dad was a mean son of a bitch and hated everyone and it was ok that he was dead.My Father verbally terrorized me almost every day. The funeral officiant ended up saying, “He golfed a lot”. There was nothing else.
My mom is in her 80’s and she’s one of 4 natural born children to her parents but her parents actually raised 7 children 3 of whom were born to other members of the family that were either too young or financially unstable to support them themselves. I am 8 years younger than my sister and one of the youngest cousins etc and didn’t know 3 of my aunts/uncle were actually my cousins etc until I was in my early thirties. Anyway I remember talking to my mom one day and she was talking about her mother being an only child and how she had always wanted a large family and that’s one of the reasons she was more than willing to raise other people’s children. I wondered how you could be raised alone and not have been spoiled etc etc, anyway my mom tells me a whopper of a family secret. That my grandma was an only child because during wartime her father had left to serve and never returned. I’m not sure if they assumed he died or had been misinformed that he died but long story short, years passed and my great grandmother was living as a widow raising my grandma alone and one day they were in the local Big Bear grocery store and around the twist of a grocery aisle they came face to face with my great grandfather, alive and well with his newest wife and other set of kids… he apparently had come back from the war but moved only to the other side of town and started a new life/ family. We couldn’t imagine that today with cell phones and social media but even almost 20 years after finding this out I’m still completely mind blown in shock…
At my Dad’s funeral- the priest couldn’t even pronounce his name right. It’s an easy name to pronounce)Through the whole funeral he kept pronouncing his name wrong. 😡
“you’re teaching your mom new things” LMAOOO
Love you both from 🇨🇦
Oddly, Kylie has a great voice for podcasting.
Have her read all those posts in the future. Her delivery is excellent.
This was such a good episode
"Looking..for rattlesnakes .."you must be in the southwest, here too :)
I continuously kept a diary from my early teen years. When I married, my jealous, controlling husband kept wanting to read them 'to see what I said about him' so I destroyed them all on a bonfire. I wish I had just hidden them so I could re-read them now, age 65!
My mother was 14th of 15 children and there were Always 4 hour funerals and baptism in the river in Kentucky and I am still haunted
Great episode!
FUBAR… fucked up beyond all recognition!!! Derived from military acronyms…👍 love you both soooo much 💜
Pumps that clap was amazing
At my dad’s funeral no one cried. We all knew him as an abusive person who not only beat us all up and abused us emotionally, but also sexually abused my sister. He beat up my mother a week before he died. And the preacher went on and on about what a swell guy he was.
So sorry you and your family had to sit through that. 🥺
I can’t wait for the St Louis show tonight!! It’s gonna be awesome!!! 🤗🫶🏻
Recently had a funeral for a pianist at my church and the whole thing was a sermon about the end times coming and our need to repent.
I've been to like 6 funerals and 4 of them were like this.
I think the difference between the diary and an instagram page is an instagram/Spotify is public. A diary is literally meant to be private, it’s not for public eyes otherwise the person would have just posted the stuff in their diary on insta/social media. It was definitely sinister
A friend of mine played with firecrackers in his parents' garage and burned the house down. The parents never found out who did it.
I had never heard of FUBAR either. Glad to know it now! 😊
holy shit! the funeral thing! I HAVE HAD IT!
😂😂😂 I love you Jennifer and pumps 😂😂😂😂
The 23 and me one I did that when I was 23 and my half sister 18 at the time did it too, I kid you not we found out that her dad had had two more kids while he was married to my mom and he didn't know. My half sister and I told my mom and she eventually Divorced my step-dad (half sisters dad) for cheating, we also found out my mom's dad isn't actually her dad, didn't tell her that part.
Y'all two are fine wine!
About the ashes. I know I may be in the minority here, but I don't get people's attitude with remains. When i watch true crime and learn that murderers get time, sometimes substantial time, off their sentence in exchange for telling the location of the victim's body, I shake my head. The victim is gone. They aren't coming back. I think it is more important that the murderer serves their full sentence than knowing something that is not going to change the situation.
6:26 to quote Dead Like Me, "You could be the biggest turd in the toilet bowl and still come out smelling like roses"
I agree Pumps. Girl please works
'i'm mixing john & jane doe up, i don't give a fuck.' CACKLED 😂
Pumps don't worry about the serial killer thing. I would hazard a guess that a huge majority of serial killers have a history of horrific abuse. Whenever I learn the history of these people, almost without exception, there was abuse in their past.
Severe abuse or traumatic brain injury! Mhm, absolutely.
Was sooo distracted by Jennifer’s undone button 😂
I went to a rural Chinese funeral. They burned a 7' high paper house, full sized paper black BMW, trillions in prayer money. Preist had a yellow mitre, tent painted with scenes of the fish story like a marvel comic book. Buddy bought in van loads of fireworks which were set off for days. Lots of feasting a drinking white liqour.
more and more tips by the week from Pumps on how to create the perfect murder. lol
Another f'ing awesome pod from 3 kickass ladies!

as a Rottweiler dad, i've had it w/ the Rottweiler slander!!!
Australian here so Jenn has to listen to me. The Chasers had a song called "Eulogy Song" She should listen to it, it's us agreeing with her.
I feel bad that they didn't hear Kiley say "You're teaching your mom new things."
"There's a lot of fuckery going on." "It's the fuckery capital of the Universe." I love it so much.... talking about funerals❤
Oh he was so wonderful, what a great son, brother…. The guy never saw or supported his only child, and died stripping copper wire off electrical lines, oh ya he was wonderful
My best friend in highschool was a trans man. He struggled with alcoholism and drug addiction. He overdosed and his family deadnamed him during his funeral and on his gravestone. His brother even got his deadname tattooed.
I heard a story once told from the drag queen eureka that her friend was a trans woman in the south soing s work. She was murdered. Stabbed to death. And her family shaved her bald and put her in a suit for her funeral.
Funerals are scary for trans people....
💔💔💔
FUBAR is from WWII.
I thought FUBAR was Fortune Feimsters new comedy tour
I would of ate that whole piece and put the empty container back in the fridge and leave a bit of creme on my face.☺
