Digging Up the Duggars

We're taking it allll the way back to the very first Discovery special. A rewatch for me (Whitney) and a side-eyed first watch for me (Tim). In light of some...uh...legal happenings, we look back from the beginnings of this saga to catch the cringe, the red flags, and the tater tot casserole.

Episode 94 - Come to my Unfinished Basement and Talk About the Lord

Little Josie gets to come home now that its only normal levels of ick and not Chicken Pox ick. Cannon and the crew try to talk down to us about how most internet and media is so bad for you, but they make a living by it. We watch as they get their voice actor chops in. Cracker Justin and Soundman Jim are definitely the stars, while Jilly Croissant has to carry the bulk of the load. Go figure. We Digg into the Rise and Fall of Ted Haggard in our next 2 part Digg. Join us for the cringe. We don't suggest listening to Life at the Pond, but if you enjoy what you're listening to, head on over to www.buymeacoffee.com/diggingupthedug Enjoy our Mildred content at instagram.com/digginguptheduggarspod and if you'd like to send some traditional mail we do have a P.O.

Episode 93 - We Hosted Ourselves, and We Loved It!

Watch in horror as the Duggar brood get Chicken Pox. They also completely miss opportunities for good wordplay. See Lego Hair getting out of his normal jurisdictions and...ya know, takes care of his sick children. In our dig; you've heard of Character Houses, Streets, Neighborhoods, Cities, States, but enjoy the first Character Inn. No, its not an IBLP-made, Hallmark movie about a big city lawyer that moves to a Michigan hotel and finds a man to convert and court her. Its an actual hotel "run" by Billy G and his minions. Mediocrity and delusion ensue. Please enjoy your stay at the Character Inn, don't forget to utilize our amenities like joining us at www.buymeacoffee.com/diggingupthedug Enjoy our Mildred content at instagram.com/digginguptheduggarspod and if you'd like to send some traditional mail we do have a P.O.

Episode 92 - Not To Be Religious, But...

**Disclaimer** We have a new mic that really picks up everything so my (Tim) voice is echoey through some of it. We are aware and are working it out. The Bates make their return to the show, watch Jana and JD in Malaysia with a sneak appearance by Frank Sun. Join us in the Dig where we look at Character Cities. The Phillipines definitely were ahead of Mike Huckabee in winning the favor of ole Billy G. Hopefully, you'll be digging on my pick at the end because it is something to behold.

Episode 91 - Just Gotta Give It Up to the Ford

The Duggars go Hollywood. Watch the clan (minus Cannon) get on the "Big Screen". Joy, actually gets her actress skirt on and plays the part so well. Pest, is....annoying as always. In our Dig, we get into the Sherwood Ministry projects and talk through how they can fund movies through exploiting their parishioners. We don't suggest watching Fireproof or Courageous, but if you like what you're hearing, Courageously join us at www.buymeacoffee.com/diggingupthedug Enjoy our Mildred content at instagram.com/digginguptheduggarspod and if you'd like to send some traditional mail we do have a P.O.

Episode 84 - Not HIS Papa

We roll along the wagon train of getting the brood to actually do things again. They get carsick, watch some relatively defrauding dancing, and get to work some metal. The choice of activity at the Iron Works was very thoughtful and kind. We finish the Dig on The Passion of the Christ and get to ole JC (actor), the creative and targeted marketing, and talk Tim's love of Super Beard Bros. Like what you hear?

Episode 82 - We're Silly with Billy's

I've said before that in comedy its funny when you set up a premise and then destroy that premise. Not so much in reality tv shows about controlling religious groups and a lot of kids. Famy and Anna say they are going to knit or crochet booties for Josie, and then proceed to spend a whole episode doing...not that at all. We Dig into Hobby Lobby's connection to Museum of the Bible and how they gathered historical pieces with the aptitude of a Supermarket Sweeper that sticks to the produce section. Like what you hear?

Join us as we get a return of the Bates clan to the show! Lots of denim skirts, but unfortunately, no Kass-uh-dee-uz. We digg into the IBLP Levels of Friendship. I hope Whitney lets me up to level 2 or 3! Like what you hear? Want to hear some ad-free episodes?

Episode 79 - It’s Christian "Talk-to-the-Hand"

We're still hanging in Little Rock and we see the Duggars, "answering" phones during a telethon for the Children's Hospital. We also watch as "Kitten" is looking a little closer to being able to head home. In part 1 of a split Dig, we examine the documentary "Jesus Camp" and Tim gets emotional in this one...rare occurrence, right? In our Digging on, we look at expressing how we feel and the beauty of a CAT-io, I mean patio. We get a rare happening of Mildred getting on the audio for this episode. Like what you hear?

Episode 78 - Down with the Dillness

Join us as we they are scraping the barrel on content while the clan is away from the Tator Tot Mansion. In the Dig, we explore how controlling systems have lead to inaction in getting people the help they need when it comes to mental illness and abuse. We explore these parallels with yet ANOTHER Josh. We dig on local business and some more gems from social media. Like what you hear? Do you have a "Servant's Heart"? Would you like to listen to these episodes ad free?

Episode 77 - It Should Be Called Cheese-etti

Join us as we watch the Duggirls get a break with a little trip home. But in order to get a break from child raising and taking care of a historic house, they must sacrifice their gut health with a cheese filled dinner at the Pest nest. In our Dig, we focus on Billy G (not my lover). We look at his childhood, and how the word “spectacular,” and being called out by a superintendent AND a woman might explain a few things down the line. We’re digging on ice cream and memories from our youth that mean soooooooo much to us, and maybe not a lot to others. I think I posted a TED talk about the same thing a little while back.

Episode 75 - Are Your Trees Evil?

Join us as we watch a, pretty old-reality-tv episode. We watch the Duggars, just do stuff. Our girl, Johannah is a little afraid of what’s under the sea. In the Dig, we look at the dangerous precipice of black-and-white thinking and Bill G’s very specific teachings on it. We explore the challenge of such a close minded thinking process. We dig on the fact that 80's and 90's themes were incredible. I watched some of @mychal3ts reels and Levar Burton's Lifetime Achievement award presentation and bawled my eyes out. Just "take a look".

The way you get ejected from a vehicle in a crash is by not wearing a seat belt. Such an incredibly stupid thing to do
