The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives & The Art of Seduction
Description
It's a solo episodeeeeee! Jessa has been in Europe for 3 weeks galavanting her way through summer, so Amanda is taking the mic this week to discuss very important things in American pop culture — The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives. Before diving in, she updates on prepping to join Jessa in France, and some honest feelings about Ellis turning three, mom guilt, and a Halloween birthday party in June.
Then it's time to dissect the drama: why we’re culturally obsessed with reality TV, how each woman on the show embodies an archetype from The Art of Seduction (yes, Amanda compares each of the women to a role in Robert Greene's lengthy book), and why success inspired manipulation might just be the show's true leading lady.
Lastly, Amanda comments on Season 2’s wildest moments: pregnancy roulette, Taylor’s parents choice words at the BBQ, that CMA mess, Jen’s scapegoat arc, and Demi’s demise. This one's for the reality lover & human behavior geeks.
