J&J put out another podcast/youtube today. This one about what is was like growing up on TV   

Nothing that we don't already know but  a couple of interesting things.  Like expressed in past it seems they seemed like the crew was liked by all.  Jinger and Jeremy are not that interesting story tellers so not sure how long they can keep up podcasts at this rate.

Jeremy talks about the standard of beauty being your spouse.  He says to Jinger at 19:06, "I don't look at you and compare you to other women and say 'Hey Jinger, can you be attractive like these other women?'  You are my standard of beauty."

I know he didn't mean that to be insulting, but it sort of sounds insulting.  Is it just me?

It sounds like the type of thing he thinks he should say. But not a thing he actually believes.

I wouldn't believe someone who said that to me. Objectively, there are others more attractive than I am. It doesn't hurt me for that to be acknowledged. Obviously there is more to attraction than just looks. But if someone is purely talking looks than I would find it disingenuous to claim I was the standard. If he really thinks that, he's lying to himself and to her.

They've got three kids under 3 and a half, so he's probably busily helping out with them on tour.  Only not.  That's women's work, right Cade.

eta:  Maybe I was a bit hasty.  I looked on Gabby's Instgram and Cade looks like an involved dad.  

They’ve got three kids now? Last I heard she was pregnant with number two! Crazy.

Especially given the fact he used to make her responsible for her phone so he wouldn't sin (presumably concerning other women), it sounds really condescending and disingenuous. Almost like he got called out for it so has come up with this as his new talking point.

In Jinger and Jeremy's latest video, they do a Q&A and one of the questions is about Jinger's daily routine.  In her answer, it sounds like Felicity attends school.  They don't say what kind of school.

They later have a discussion about school in general, and surprisingly, Jeremy doesn't seem all that against public school.

It was kind of long and repetitive but they seemed to be more relaxed.  I don't think there was a lot of new info but they did have Jana, Michelle, and some of the sisters come to their house for a bachelorette party/weekend.  Curious if they or Jana put out a video or pictures of that event.  Jinger talked about how happy she was to see some of Michelle's family there that she had not seen in a long time.   Jinger must have said "sweet" a hundred times and she kept getting teary eyed.  Of course the Rev. Jer  had to add a few God lessons in and quoting John MacArthur one time.

One thing I thought was kind of refreshing is that Jeremy referred to Stephen Wissmann as a "handsome devil."  You or I wouldn't think twice about using that term, but it's surprising when a fundy uses it.  I used to work with a born-again Christian, and she would never in a million years say the word "devil."  She wouldn't even eat devil's food cake or deviled eggs.  (I think some fundies now call them angel eggs.)

That is a lack of knowledge.  Deviling is a cooking method which mixes warm spices with food.  Mustard is often involved.     You can devil anything--almost.  Deviled salmon, deviled ham, deviled eggs come immediately to mind.

This is a woman (my co-worker) who was taught by her strange and cultish pastor that demons came out of the TV (so no TV was allowed), so who knows what she thought about deviled eggs.  That was 40 years ago.  She's now thankfully in a more mainstream church.

woodscommaelle, I thought your post was harmless, but I know the feeling of having second thoughts after a post.  I've deleted a few myself that probably didn't need deletion, lol. 

Thank you. I appreciate your words. And it’s nice to know that I’m not the only one to second-guess (and in this case third fourth and fifth!) myself. 🤗

I've deleted posts too, especially when I anticipate "corrections" or when I feel that my post temporarily killed a thread, worrying that my post was too boring!

My opinion is that Mr. Wissman is better-looking than the other brothers-in-law, even Jeremy.  I hope Stephen isn't arrogant like most fundie men seem to be.

I always thought Ben was good looking.

Latest podcast episode:  Jinger discusses growing up with 18 siblings.  It's actually quite interesting.

 

Gee, Jeremy, wear a pair of shoes!  I don't want to look at your socks.  Jinger is wearing big honking sneakers, also not the most attractive.
