Sister Wives-Season 17-

Reacting to Kody and Janelle Brown

Note: This episode was originally recorded and uploaded to another platform before Janelle and Kody announced their separation. 

In this episode, I discuss what cognitive dissonance is and how it shows up during season 17 of the show Sister Wives on TLC.

Please Note: The episode was recorded and originally uploaded before Meri Brown made the official announcement regarding her divorce from Kody Brown. 

In this episode, I discuss the relationships between Meri, Robyn, and Christine Brown. Were Meri and Robyn's reactions to Christine leaving justified?
