That is me.

I am Dr. Adam, real-life professor of interpersonal and family communication and longtime follower of the TLC series Sister Wives,

and we are back continuing our journey through season five, my review and recap of

Season 5 of Sister Wives.

I get the feeling there are some of you that are new.

Thanks for joining me.

Thanks for sticking around.

In case you missed it, I did have the opportunity to interview Jen Sullivan in Mary Brown. Last week, it was kind of an impromptu, not really impromptu.

Are you ready? I am certainly ready. Also, hey, by the way, thanks to everybody who has recently

become a subscriber to the faculty lounge for the bonus content on Apple. And for folks,

through Spotify or through Patreon itself, have signed up for my

Patreon.com slash the sister wives professor, but we are here to talk about season five,

episode five, morning the loss. And this is indeed an emotional one for me. I wonder if it will be

for you too. It certainly is for the Brown family. But it doesn't start out that way, at least not the emotion that we're going to get to towards the end. We are starting off at Pinnacle Homes. Doesn't get much better. This is the peak, you might even say, of homes. The brown adults are meeting to talk about the interior of their homes, specifically because they're building, you know, the Vegas houses, the cul-de-sac of love.

And oh my God, it's baby Solomon, big old fat baby sitting on a table.

God Almighty, I love a fat baby.

You ever seen a fat baby, like a real fat one in person?

Oh, it's the best.

They got the rolls. They got the,
