Explicit language. Remote Reality dives into Sister Wives Season 20, Episode 1 (“Why I Want to Be a Monogamist”). Lauren & Dee react to Kody Brown’s “roller-coaster” narrative, Robyn’s take on accountability, Meri gearing up for speed dating, and Janelle building a new life in North Carolina. We talk Coyote Pass, the “spiritual vs. legal divorce” convo, Maddie’s heartbreaking perspective, Christine & David’s sweet dynamic, and (yes) the fork-licking scene we can’t unhear.
We also compare timelines since Garrison’s passing, discuss grief, accountability, and whether Kody & Robyn are actually embracing monogamy—or just rewriting history. Plus: cabins, flower farms (Bob Boulevard), shutters that need fixing 😅, and why soup = love language.
