The Duggalos: Jinger and the Holy Goalie

[iwantcookies]

I can’t find how much is the PHD costs a year. 
 

More doctrines and donuts ? More studying? 
 

3-4 more years of free housing?

Isn't that much cheaper than the MDiv?

In the recently released transcript of the sisters' lawsuit, Jinger was asked how much she made last year (not Jeremy, just her) and what was it from.  She responded that last year she made more than $100,000 but less than $200,000 and most of it was from her social media accounts.  

What about the other sisters? Did the transcript give their answers to this question?

They may have but I haven't seen it.  But I've only read a tiny percentage of the humongous transcript.

Why is Gabby wearing the lacy robe thing?  To a fair?  Is PAC not allowing her to show her legs?

Aunt Cade is still as punchable as ever.  So is JereME, Mr. Homeboy.  Yuck.

[laurakaye]

Ew, Cade, with his sweaty paw on Gabby's pristine white dress like she's his personal property.  I hate that Fundie way of posing.

I am no body language expert but Gabby's smile seems forced and she seems to be leaning away from Cade, while his smile doesn't reach his eyes and makes him seem as though he's not as happy as he would have us think that his wife is the star and he has been relegated to the background with his stupid hair.

At least he'll always have Jeremy, the spouse of the TLC breakout star Jinger Duggar Vuolo.

Maybe she’s wearing the robe because she’s pregnant? Seems a bit early for that but who knows. Cade’s making sure to keep her pregnant and in her place as much as possible.

I took it she was one of the performers at the fair, and that's her stage outfit. Aunt Cade has on the same outfit as the picture with the guitar.
And yes, yuck to the keep-a-grip-on-mah-property pose

Yes, you are correct he announced it as a good headship would.  Sigh

She is like 22. What’s the rush with having 2 kids when she has a career? If she was 35 I get it. It’s now or never. 
 

I vote for Cade Jr.

He actually had that guitar when he started Idol.  He barely knew Gabby then, much less got guitar gifts from her.  

Here he is with it over 2 years before Idol.

I can understand about half the words. The music seems louder than her voice and she sounds muffled but lately I have been listening to acapella so that may have something to do with my problem. Although that is one reason I do not like hard rock or opera the music overwhelms the singers.

Well, good for him. But he's still riding Gabby's coattails. He should be home doing the housework, cooking, and child care. I can't believe Gabby doesn't have help.

She was a “mentor” on American Idol a few weeks ago (my mom watches it). The contestants she mentored seemed to like her, but I kept wondering what they would think if they knew how hateful and bigoted she is. Some contestants are gay and belong to other groups her cult wants to marginalize..

Yep, she may not have paid for that guitar, but it’s more than likely that she pays for the bulk of their household expenses, while also being expected to be the primary caregiver of their child.

Here's the petition we were discussing in the other thread. Jeremy wasn't just a signer but one of the initial signers. 

I think one of the issues with Jeremy is a lot of people have in the past tried to hand-wave away his affiliation with MacArthur as "Oh he doesn't really believe those things--he's just leeching off the old man." And I find that problematic because to me all evidence suggests that Jeremy really does believe the most hateful things that MacArthur teaches. He keeps quiet about it because he doesn't want to lose business deals, but I don't think that doesn't mean he isn't really okay with these bigoted ideas being used to dismantle other people's freedoms or rights. The petition itself, per its own stated goal, is about counteracting "dangerous" ideas in churches and society. 

He just doesn't want to own up to it because it will inconvenience him. He may not be as dangerous as a more outspoken person, but I think that still makes him pretty spineless and despicable.

Okay, yes I remember this. To me it reinforces what they all believe. I thought they were out and about in the community trying to interfere with others' rights.

They can sign whatever they want and preach whatever they want as long as its amongst themselves. I disagree with what a lot of mainstream churches believe and teach too. I just can't drum up a lot of hate for what folks do in the privacy of their home or their house of worship. To each their own.

Start spewing, spouting and hating publicly, then I have a problem.

I can understand that. My biggest issue is the narrative that seems to have died down fortunately that Jeremy is somehow just going along to get along and get freebies and in no way believes anything of the sort.

I think I gave Jeremy the benefit of the doubt initially, but I do believe he believes what he signed. How that looks in his day to day life or marriage though, is a mystery to me.

[emmawoodhouse]

What interested me from the deposition was Jeremy saying he made "nothing" in 2020. I thought he worked in Mac Daddy''s inner sanctum doing lord knows what after class. That was all voluntary?

So he's saying to that they lived off of Jinger's SM earnings until the book came out last year? What about the podcast? Their sad hats and mugs? And most glaring was the proof that they weren't compensated for their appearances on CO.

He seems pretty cagey about it. LOL

At one point, he says his preaching is volunteer, but then he says this magnificence of vagueness: “Since moving to California, because I've taken on a different role with, you know, where I'm not pastoring full time - an assistant job isn't like, you know, great pay or whatever."

I can't tell if he's insinuating he has some sort of stipend that is much less than he made in Texas or if he's just blabbering and literally makes no money.

He then says that they make very little from the show, about $2-3,000 per episode. He makes a weird comparison to working for McDonald's in relation to it that I really don't understand. 

But yes reading between the lines, it does seem like Jinger is the one who brings home the bacon. Or the majority of the bacon.

I can't find the article - I thought Jeremy said they were paid from the show.

I wonder if Jeremy's work at the school goes toward his tuition.

Oh, I missed the part where he says they were compensated for CO. But since they weren't on every episode, and they were making far fewer episodes by 2020, that wasn't much money.

That's certainly possible! When I had my assistantship, my tuition was completely covered, and I got a small stipend that I was able to live on in genteel poverty. LOL Though I was supporting only moi and an elderly Chihuahua, not a family of 4. But it's possible that the seminary isn't super generous, especially if he's already getting a free place to stay as well.

I defer to any of our lawyers on this, of course, but my understanding is that's okay in a deposition, and they're a little more no-holds barred than what is usually seen in court. I'm really wondering how well any of the daughters were prepped for what to expect in a deposition and if they also realized that their testimony there would become public record eventually.

Is this why Jinger was crying when talking to Michelle about wearing pants? Then Michelle lied through her teeth when she said she didn’t mind. Just another fundie lying for sport.

Going back to Jeremy's comment on TLC pay - $1000 per episode being the same pay as McDonald's would mean he's saying they filmed about 80 hours for one episode. I hardly doubt it.

[Absolom]

It takes many, many hours of "work" to get 42 minutes (one hour) of TV.  Fictional shows work an average of 8 12 to 16 hour days and longer to get each episode.  Even reality shows can involve multiple takes plus there is all the set up and take down.  They may not be in front of the camera the whole time, but they must be present.  There is also hair and make up and clothing selection.  Either they have to do it or someone comes in to do it or assist plus transportation time to the whatever they're filming.  It isn't like the crew shows up at 9 AM and immediately begins filming whatever you were normally going to do that day and at 5 PM they depart.  It's planned out, set up, reviewed, and yes even scripted.  The reality shows employ writers who provide if not exact dialog scene pages to be followed.  I remember one of Honey Boo Boo's complaints being having to memorize and yell the suggested "cute expressions" the writers came up with for her.

For sure. I remember when Michelle said they filmed three days a week to get an episode for 19 Kids. And I'm sure when they were filming only the Vuolos (due to location), they followed them around quite a bit, but the episodes very rarely had only one storyline, so I'm still calling bullshit on the Vuolos filming for 80 hours for an episode.
