The SLOMW: Maze feat. (Taylor) Frankie Beverly (Pt. 2)

**Part 2/2**
This week we're discussing episodes 1-5 of season 3 of "The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives." This group always seems to be in a bit of a fragile space but this season finds #MomTok more fractured than we've ever seen them before. Whitney is still on the outs with the group but, thanks to a shockingly inflated ego and unexpected Vanderpump Villa love triangle, Demi has become public enemy #1. As the ladies prepare for press in LA for their season 2 premiere, they must figure out how to coexist, and find the answer to that age old question- "Can MomTok survive this?"
"The Secret Lives of Mormon Wives" is available to stream on Hulu.

Weapons: No Wig Formed Against Me Shall Prosper (Pt. 1)

**This was meant to be our Halloween episode but due to issues with the original recording (and even thinking it may have been lost forever at one point!), it was a much longer journey than expected to get it out. Let's just call it a very special Thanksgiving episode lol**

Rebel Royals: A Soul-Sexual Connection

When I get that feeling, I need soul-sexual healing...
In the documentary "Rebel Royals: An Unlikely Love Story," we meet Princess Märtha Louise of Norway and her soon-to-be American husband, Shaman Durek Verrett.

Divorce in the Black: A... Highbrow Experience

Guess who's bizzack! It's ya girls :) Have we been gone for far too long? Yes. Did we record this episode while the Olympics were still on? ...that's none of your business. But all that matters is we are so back!
And since we've missed y'all so much, we wanted to review a movie that has been widely loved by critics and audiences alike- "Tyler Perry's Divorce in the Black." In this *cinematic masterpiece*, Ava and Dallas are in a tumultuous marriage which abruptly comes to an end when the already-checked out Dallas announces he wants a divorce. Though the divorce was his idea, Dallas is also somehow FURIOUS about it(???) and makes Ava's life a living hell, along with the lives of all of her loved ones. While marketed as a Thriller/Drama, "Divorce in the Black" just might be the funniest movie of 2024.
"Divorce in the Black" is available to stream on Amazon Prime.
