[02:44] Oh my god, Barry Plath has hired a matchmaker, Renee. Ethan Plath is an absolute creeper stalker who has decided to move to Wisconsin to be near Teegan. Oh, but he's not gonna tell her. And Kim, who's like a complete whack job manipulator, is even like, dude, are you in Wisconsin right now in a super recognizable 1970s gangster vehicle? And you're not gonna tell her you're there, you don't think this is a little weirdo creep, and you've got a bag of tools in the back and a duffel bag with clothes. Even Kim Plath is like, you're not all right, you're not 100%. Okay, welcome in, brand new TSFS. On Wednesdays, when Welcome to Plathville is in session, in session, in season, I do a recap of the show. Last night, this show does not disappoint. I love how many people are on board now or catching up with Welcome to Plathville because we're season eight, episode four last night. I mean, just another banger of an episode. And in fact, what I love most about this is, cause I feel like they do this a little with Sister Wives, but they really do it with Plathville, is the producers basically have a laugh at the Plath family expense. Like they are always trolling Barry. They're always trolling Kim. They're definitely trolling Ethan. I mean, they like, they go with him. They shadow this whack job up to Wisconsin where he wants to sign the paperwork and a lease on an apartment close to Teegan and not tell her. And then he thinks that that's how she's going to fall back in love with him. Excuse me? Dude, we know you grew up sheltered. Watch one episode of Dateline, all right? It's how 90% of the shows start. Like, just click on a random Thursday night on Dateline. Guarantee it starts out that way. Okay. We opened last night's episode. Barry and Ken are hanging out. Ken is Kim's new boyfriend. Barry, of course, is Kim's ex-husband. They finalized their divorce. They are divorced. And Barry is delivering oats to the farm. Okay. This is part of Barry's divorce agreement. Most people, they have to split the vehicles. They split the homes. They, you know, yes, of course, you all know a lot of your products of divorce. You know, your parents fought over the dishes or whatever they bought back in 1973. So anyhow, in this divorce settlement, this is how you know you're in Cairo, Georgia, the bear meister has to bring oats every week to the girls for the animals. He rolls up. Ken's there. I mean, Ken literally is like worse than Ethan Plath. Okay. If we, we somehow managed on this show to cast a man who has fewer words than Ethan Plath. Okay. Ethan Plath is the most miserable fuck you've ever like laid your eyes on. And yet Ken actually seems happy go lucky. He's probably like a low key alcoholic. Allegedly, it's a joke. Okay. Ken, don't sue me. He's probably a lovely upstanding man who doesn't drink a lick, right? But the guy seems to have a mouthful of marbles and four words that he can come up with. So he, you know, Ken's clueless. He tells Barry he doesn't know where they're supposed to take the oats and, you know, Ken is sitting there in these awkward moments and they're trying to talk to each other. And the only thing that Ken can sort of have an exchange about is his pal Ethan, who shockingly he gets along with so well. Well, no kidding. You and Ethan, you have no ability to argue with Ethan or fight because you guys literally between the two of you, it would take you an hour to get four sentences out. You are men of zero words.

Speaker 3:
[06:27] All right.

Speaker 4:
[06:27] So like that's Ken.

Speaker 3:
[06:29] Ken tells Barry, my favorite person is Ethan Plath because he's a real good guy.

Speaker 1:
[06:37] Uh, yeah, we get it because you guys have a lot in common. And then all of a sudden, I mean, wasn't this so staged, you guys, so staged? Stage-o-rama.

Speaker 3:
[06:49] Out of nowhere, Ken goes, so Barry, are you dating anybody?

Speaker 1:
[06:53] I mean, like, like that, Ken had that thought. Ken doesn't know where the oat bucket is in the home that he lives in. But he wants, he's curious about Barry's dating life. Completely staged by producers. And Barry's like, this is kind of weird that I'm talking to my, talking to my Kim's new boyfriend about my dating life. But hey, you know what, maybe I could give Ken a couple of pointers. X, Y, and Z about what not to do with Kim, huh? All right. They go back and forth here in this very weird exchange and Barry tells him, you know, he's not really dating anybody. And then Barry goes, well, actually I'm here for a reason. And that's for a juicer.

Speaker 5:
[07:36] In this channel.

Speaker 1:
[07:38] Only. You guys gotta give TLC credit. I know you all hate this network because they pay their talent through cents and, you know, make millions and exploit everybody. But you gotta give this, this network credit. They are able to make a whole first half of a show over a juicer. Barry wants this juicer that Kim used to use back in the day when they were young and in love and they didn't hate one another. Kim would juice, okay? She likes celery juice with cinnamon or ginger, whatever that crap she's adding. And Barry's there and he's like, you know, I love a little crack at that juicer. I'm still on my health kick. I don't know about Kim basically digging at the fact that poor Kim has gained, you know, 200 pounds. It happens to us all. Okay. I've been various sizes. And so Ken manages to find the juicer and give it to Barry. Now that's going to come back to Han Ken because later on in the episode, Kim really wants to like absolutely yell and scream at Ken over giving Barry the juicer. But instead she brings Ken into the kitchen and goes, did you give, what happened to my juicer?

Speaker 3:
[08:47] And Ken goes, Barry was over here. He wanted it so I gave it to him.

Speaker 1:
[08:53] And Kim looks at him with death stares, okay. As though amazon.com doesn't exist and it ushers him away back to the living room. She literally says to him in the scene, you can go back to the living room now, Ken. All right, then we go from there to Russell's military vehicles. All right, we meet Russell. I like Russell, all right. I like Russell. Russell's got the most personality of this episode. He owns a shop that he desperately wants to give basically to Ethan. He restores old vehicles and he's also the dad of Ethan's good friend. And so he's like basically in this scene trying to also another very, it felt like very stage scene, but I liked Russell's attitude. And, you know, he starts talking to Ethan about, well, this could be your shop, you know, Russell's military vehicles and then Ethan Plath underneath it. Then it could be Ethan and then Russell and I could work for you. All right, and I like this is some like revolutionary thing. But I do really love this because there needs to be a show on how all these baby boomers are essentially like they're all getting ready to retire. They're my mom's age or younger, and they're trying to get rid of or sell their businesses because most of their kids don't want them. I mean, taking over a baby boomer business is a reality show for sure, because these boomers never want to give it up. They always like sell you the business, but then they want like 51% control. So they start talking about Ethan's future plans, and he says that he is now ready to move to Wisconsin, and Russell's like, what are you talking about? Show me your girlfriend. So he brings out a picture of Teegan, and Russell's like, oh, Lord. You know Russell's a man with some experience. He's just sitting there going, I don't want to tell him, but this is a rebound. It's not going to go well. This guy has been through some trauma, and he thinks that this chick, she's hot, she's sexy. She wasn't born and raised in a crazy Christian cult. So this chick knows how to get down, and he's pee-whipped, and he's moving to Wisconsin. Russell's like, horrible idea. I'm ready to give this guy the entire Russell vehicle, military vehicle operation. And this guy wants to chase this chick to Wisconsin. Has he looked around Georgia? Plenty of tail here. That's okay. Like, Russell doesn't say this, but you get the idea, all right? So Ethan says he's finally ready to move to Wisconsin, and he does drudge up the fact that, you know, he told Teegan he was going to do that, then he couldn't really do it, and past trauma came into play. But Teegan is home to him, and he is willing to give up this income, this real business, to go to Wisconsin, and he wants to chase her. He wants to see if she'll take him back, and that's what he's gonna do. And he makes the announcement to Russell that he hasn't even told his family that he is moving to Wisconsin. They have no idea, because he just moved back to Cairo, just started living the Cairo life. And so he is going to go up there. He hasn't talked to his family about it. He's talked to like Russell for the first time, and Russell is like, dude, I don't want to tell him, but you're making a huge mistake. So Ethan, in a heartbeat, loses probably like $100,000 a year business that's basically being given to him, because Russell's like had it with being a mechanic and like having oil all over his fingernails every night. Ethan's walking away from that. So then we go to Barry, okay? So we have this, we get this image that Ethan is moving back to Wisconsin. Then we hop over to Barry. Barry has hired a matchmaker, you guys, Renee. And this is epic. This is epic. He is paying a matchmaker to hook him up. I love this storyline. I want to see Barry. It's just lunch out on dates. I had a girlfriend that did It's Just Lunch. She had so many great dating stories. I mean, oh my God, the men that she would get, it was, it was epic. Gusto, I'm obsessed.

Speaker 1:
[14:42] So Renee is there and you know, he's loving Renee. She's a beautiful blonde, you can tell. And Renee's asking him about his love language. And then Renee goes, how ready do you think you are to have a relationship? Barry goes, maybe a five. She goes, a five? That's, how'd you come to that number? I'm thinking to myself in this scene, Barry, you dope, how are you, you're spending thousands of dollars because a matchmaker isn't cheap. Now, by the way, TLC is probably paying for this, but you're going to do all the effort of a matchmaker and you're only at a five of wanting a relationship again, because Kim has like just burnt you so bad. Now, I loved it. Renee goes, why do you think your marriage ended? Why do you think Barry paints himself as a man scorned? Then he does admit that basically Kim came to him and said, Barry wasn't meeting her needs. He was not mature. He basically says he's matured a lot and he admits that he's made some past mistakes, but he doesn't really get into what those are. What are they, Bear? Bear, you got to tell us about your flaws. If you don't want to repeat the same mistakes. But he basically says that he has made some big mistakes in that marriage. What were they? I mean, because I don't think I've never heard any Barry cheating rumors. I really haven't. But Kim definitely says that he never wanted to do anything that she wanted. You know, Kim basically calls him a loser. And I think if we've watched the show long enough, you're like, well, she's not entirely off. And he does admit he wants no alpha females. He calls Kim that. No controlling and he's definitely over manipulation. Now Olivia Plath has been trying to tell y'all for a long time, Kim is a master manipulator, master manipulator. So he wants a woman who is not an alpha female, not controlling, not manipulative. And his dream woman is Sandra Bullock. Why do people do this? Why, why do matchmakers, why do TV shows set people up like this? This is like, you know, Big Ed asking people, Big Ed, who's your dream woman? Nicole Kidman, who's six feet tall. I mean, Big Ed, you ain't getting Nicole, okay? Barry, Sandra Bullock, you aren't even, I don't think you're even pulling in a chick that's in a Sandra Bullock look-alike contest, okay? We are so far off base. Why do shows do this to people and humiliate them? Okay? I'm at the point in my life now. I'm 44, you know, do I look good with a lot of makeup on and my tits taped up? Sure, like many of you, you know? I am like one of those transformation, extreme transformation videos on TikTok. This is like saying to me, Sarah, who do you think you can pull? And me going, God, it's a toss up between Michael B. Jordan and Timothy Chalamet. I mean, it's not, no, it's not, it's not. Okay, it's not happening. Get real, okay, get real. Now that Jon Hamm is a little fat and old and aging, you know, I probably have a shot at night, you know, but it's, he's on the downward turn, not the up. So this is an embarrassing moment for Barry because Renee is like, okay, yes. You have nine kids. I know that when I was writing all their names down, it was exiting the page. And you really have an army behind you, Barry. She's like, she's reaching here for something good. And then we go to commercial and we come back to these horrible sounding noises. You know, forest and it's Kim Plath's voice. And the producers are messing with all of us, making it sound like she and Ken are out having a romp on, you know, a bed of poison ivy. Well, it turns out Kim is out there pushing down trees, not with a chainsaw. She and Isaac are bonding over pushing down trees on Kim's four wheeler path. So when Kim goes out there and hits the four wheel trails, she won't have trees fall on her. I think I hate this show so much because it reminds me of my childhood, which was not on a farm, but like I had to do a riding lawnmower. I do a push mower, a weed whacker every weekend. You know, and thank God we never had four wheelers, but snowmobiles and cutting trails and oh God, I just nature is so overrated to me. It really is. So anyhow, thankfully Kim and Ken are not doing it, but we have to see Kim and Isaac bond over pushing down tree stumps. And we're revisiting the Kaylynn and Isaac thing. And Kim informs us that she spoke to Kaylynn after the breakup and Kaylynn's biggest concern was is Isaac okay? And Kim's like, that's a good woman. That's a good woman for you right there. She's concerned about you buddy. And Isaac is like, oh, I don't know if I can win her back. So we dumped her and he's giving all these legitimate reasons as to why he should stay single. Okay. He's 19 years old. The guy's a peanut farmer who loves a crop duster plane. And he basically goes, yeah, all the relationships in my family have failed and I'm only 19 and I should probably learn more about myself, but I'm going to try to win Kaylynn back. It's like, dude, no, you just gave the playbook of why you should let yourself be single for the next five years. And if Kaydog is your gal in five years, she'll still be around or she'll have moved on. And you will find the love of your life and you will have done some healing because you have 0.0 examples of healthy relationship models in your life. Right. Instead, this is Kim and Isaac plotting as to how he's going to get her back. And in another creepy move, we find out with Kim in a confessional that she used to be anti-sex before marriage with all her kids. She didn't want him having sex before marriage, but now she's got Zach Weiss as her son-in-law, who is a thorn in her side, whether he's gay or not. By the way, he says he's not gay. But, you know, he calls Kim out for being the manipulator that she is. And she's like, you know what? Now I'm actually for my kids having sex before marriage because I've got these kids, they've married off within months just so they could bone. And this isn't going well for me. You got to love a woman who admits her faults, however strange those faults are. So Kim, this is Kim's big confessional. And yeah, the family has decided for Isaac that they should be back together. It's not good for him to be broken up with her. And he is now determined that he's going to win her back. So Barry has been given an assignment by Renee, the matchmaker. And Bear Gare is supposed to talk to his younger daughters about his dating, what they think he should have in a woman, who they'd like to accept, what's happening. So Bear goes and sits with Amber. By the way, Amber is my favorite Plath of all time. She's like 17, but she's like wise beyond her years. The young girls are sitting there knitting. I don't know why. I feel like every once in a while on the show, they try to still make us think that they're these homesteady people. When we know Kim's been arrested for a DUI, she loves a bottle of wine at a bar. Ken, they're living in sin. Barry is out here jacked AF, probably doing some sort of roids or HGH matchmaking. Olivia and Ethan, Ethan, a wacko, you know, I mean, Teegan, she's at raves, you know, she's dropping that Molly. I mean, why these girls are sitting there like, you don't have to pretend with us anymore. Y'all want to get on a cell phone or YouTube and show us what you're watching? We're here for it. Anyway, they're sitting there knitting and Barry tells them that he's going to start dating. And Amber's like, about time, about time. I wanted you to start dating. Amber is like, yeah, you need to get over, mom. Get out there, get underneath somebody. Let's go. Amber is, she's telling him what he needs to do. So the girls, very funny in this scene, give a laundry list of things that this chick has to be. Barry's new woman. She's going to like 80s music. If she drinks coffee, are they going to make out with coffee breath? She's got to like water activities, good sense of humor. It was great. And Barry's like, he can't keep up.

Speaker 1:
[25:07] And then we go to Kim. I thought this part was good. Kim is working out at the house and she reveals to us that she hates her weight. All right. A lot of us can relate to that. She's somehow using a chalkboard. I have no idea. I guess for Kim, it hasn't hit her that there's like a bazillion workout apps where she could literally go type in like what workout she wants, her height, her weight, and it will spit out. I think CHEP GPT will do this for you in five minutes, an entire routine of how to lose weight. Or you could just skip ahead and go to Ozempic. Whatever. I'm not pro-ozempic, but everybody be on it. I know a lot of you are on it and I've softened a bit on this because some of my girlfriends who I grew up with in high school who have always had weight issues, and I did too, have just said for the first time in their lives on this drug, they actually feel like they're living. I know what that's like. I know what it's like to be overweight. I was 60 pounds heavier than I am right now. I know what that's like to stop living over your weight. So in that regard, whatever it takes, life is so short and so unpredictable at times. If ozempic is what is bringing you joy and getting you out there, then do it. I just think the side effects for people are going to be very tough long-term, but who knows? The thing is now all my girlfriends that are on it, you always now can tell when someone's on it because women, they all lose their hair in the front, all their hair thins. There's a side effect. I don't know one woman on Ozempic who has the front of her hair thick and flowing. It all falls out in thins and their hairline begins to recede. Small price to pay, I guess, because you could just get a wig, you'll be snatched with a wig. But Kim is on a chalkboard, an old school chalkboard writing out Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday, writing down her routines. Poor thing doesn't know about weight loss apps. But fair enough, she does talk to us that her weight has gotten out of control. She's big, she hates it. And you know, one of the things that back in the day, when they were all happier family, they used to cook all the time. They didn't eat sugar. And I wanted to be like, sweetie, you know, wine, your bottle of wine, that's what's keeping you, you know, up there. There ain't nothing wrong with that.

Speaker 3:
[27:17] I love a bottle of wine.

Speaker 1:
[27:18] But I mean, you talk about sugar, she's like, you know, it's just, I think it's the sugar for me.

Speaker 3:
[27:23] Really?

Speaker 1:
[27:24] Yeah, no kidding. Your bottle of wine or your six margaritas, that'll do it. And then of course, you know, in a nice tie in by producers, Kim wants to look for her juicer. She's going to lose weight again, she's going to get in shape. So she goes down and she's pawing around the pantry looking for that juicer. She's going to lose weight by getting back into doing celery juice and ginger. And the juicer is nowhere to be found, because we obviously know that Barry has it. And that's when she comes for Ken. Ken, Ken, get in here. Have you seen my juicer?

Speaker 3:
[28:00] Sorry, but I gave it to Barry, because Barry came over here and said it was us.

Speaker 1:
[28:06] She is seething, but she doesn't want us to know how horrible she treats men. We already know, Kim, let her rip. Obviously, I think Ken loves, whether it's his fetish or whatever, I think he likes being manipulated and controlled by you. She sends Ken off into this. She's like, you can get out of here now. You can go back to the living room. He walks right back in there, tail between his legs. Kim is like, I'm going to have to speak to Barry about this. By the way, did anyone notice this while they're shooting this scene in Kim's kitchen? On her counter, did it look like there were two motorcycle, giant motorcycle replicas that were displayed on her countertop? Is that like, was that Decor? Were they miniature bikes for the kids? I was so lost. But that scene, I'm like, what has she got for Decor in this kitchen? A couple of motorcycles? I mean, I guess nothing should shock me here, but what an interesting choice. And then we wrap up last night's episode, oh my God, with Ethan the Creeper. Oh my God, Ethan needs a new nickname. I don't know, ether maybe we should start calling him, which is the old school, like, you know, they used to douse a cloth with ether and then knock people out for surgeries. And of course, then people would drug people. I think I'm going to start calling Ethan ether Plath because he is a creep show. Now, before we get into the creepy conclusion of episode four last night, I do want to mention, cause people ask me about this. If you have questions about my podcasting courses, hit me up. And you may not know this about me, but I, about a year or so ago, people came to me, they wanted podcasting advice, they wanted to know what I do. So I developed three courses, Podcasting 101, Podcasting for Pros and Six Figure Master Plan. I do one on one consulting and I always sell my courses with a promo code. You can use promo code, Spring 20, Spring 20 for 20% off any of the courses or code Baby 20 because I just had a baby. But if you've always thought about having your own podcast or if you have a friend that has a podcast and maybe they're stuck on how to grow it or are the guests worth it or how do you get bigger name guests or how do you make money? Go bigpodcasting.com. The promo code Baby 20 is perfect and you get 20% off or Spring 20. So definitely purchase a course because you could be doing this too. Podcasts are going to be the next television shows. You are not too late. Launch your show. Get going. You and your girlfriends or maybe you are part of a religious cult. Hey, hey now, get your cult drama out there. Tell your story. Go bigpodcasting.com. So Ether has driven up to Wisconsin with a producer sitting shotgun in his vehicle and it's freezing in Wisconsin and we arrive and he announces that he has a bag of tools in his car, a duffel bag, a pillow in the back seat and a blanket. Now if this is not, like I said at the beginning of this show, if this is not the start of, I don't know, 90 episodes of Dateline, I don't know. What is this? Oh, my God. So he doesn't recognize in his mind that this is pure stalker vibes, okay? Now you think he would have gotten the hint after Olivia Plath put him on blast, basically calling him an abuser. He allegedly spit in her face. He took a door off the hinges. Dude, I mean, do you recognize these patterns in yourself here? You nuts. He doesn't. So he's in that old gangster vehicle, and he essentially says that he wants to be with Teegan, but their entire family is clueless about relationships. They have no idea about a healthy relationship. He doesn't. Obviously, that's obvious by him driving up to Wisconsin and not letting anyone know. And then he decides to FaceTime Kim. And if you need a relationship advice, you would have been better off FaceTiming Russell from the car detail company or the whatever, antique car fixer, then you would Kim. However, we caught Kim on a day where Kim is like, dude, what you're about to do right now is real weird. So he FaceTimes Kim and he tells her that he is in Wisconsin. And Kim listens for two minutes and then she's like, you're not being weird, are you? You're not being a creeper. Basically, Kim calls him out. She calls him a weirdo on this. She's like, you know, this is weird. You're not being weird, right? You're not going to just show up. And then he proceeds to go, no, I'm not going to show up. I'm going to just get an apartment near her. I'm not going to let her know I'm here until I sign the paperwork. And the producers are like, do you think this is a good idea? You have a very distinct car. You're driving around. Kim is like, this is a no bueno. Ethan, no bueno. But he's like, no, no, no. And she's like, don't you think that you should, I think you need to let Teegan know. It's awfully weird. It's really, this is weird. Doesn't register with him. So he's driving around with producers and he goes, wait a minute, we just passed Teegan. And boom, that's how we end last night's episode. Whether Teegan saw him or not, we will find out. The preview for next week, we talked to some of Barry Plath's family members who call him Plath Daddy.
