| 0:03.4 | It does not reflect the views or opinions of my university or its affiliates. Hello, and as always, welcome to the Sister Wives Professor. |
| 0:30.0 | That is me. I'm Dr. Adam, Professor of Interpersonal and Family Communication and longtime follower of the TLC series Sister Wives. And this is my podcast |
| 0:38.7 | where we talk about reality TV, especially sister wives. This is actually the season finale |
| 0:44.8 | of season five. Only eight episodes in this season. Doesn't that seem weird? Especially now. |
| 0:50.0 | I already know season six. The next season is 20 episodes. So yeah, starting next week, we are getting right into season six. This train doesn't stop. Just feels like a really short season. I don't know, no tell-alls, no nothing. We get a tell-all at the end of next season two, I think the very first one, at least of that format. So we got that to look forward to, but that's quite a ways away. |
| 1:16.8 | Obviously, if it's 20 episodes deep into that season, but still, finishing season five with this episode, season five number eight, hard to say goodbye. So I just want to talk about that, let you know |

| 1:34.6 | that kind of stuff, and they all seem pretty darn excited, which is nice. Baby Saul is once again |
| 1:39.1 | here too in Christine's lap, little chonker. We're meeting with Launette, and they've been picking their finishes with. |
| 1:45.7 | We saw her previously in this season. And oh my God, who else is here? What is that music? |
| 1:54.3 | That's right, Hammondegers. It's Mona. God, I love that woman. The idea is the homes could be done by December, and Cody, of course, wants to move the entire family at once before Christmas. |
| 2:06.0 | Get ready to hear this a lot, this Christmas thing. |
| 2:09.4 | He doesn't even care if they have Christmas in boxes. |
| 2:12.1 | He wants to be in those homes. |
| 2:15.2 | Christine, not so much. |
| 2:16.5 | She doesn't give a crap about Christmas. She just wants to close on the |
| 2:19.5 | homes period. She is so stressed. She's up at 3 a.m. every single stupid day, she says. A lot of emphasis. |
| 2:26.5 | She's trying to get clear to everybody that she's not doing well. This is really hard for her. |
| 2:31.1 | There's too much to do. Robin is the only one that seems to be genuinely |
| 2:35.3 | sympathetic or at least making an effort to come across as sympathetic to Christine. She's nodding, |
