Digging Up the Duggars

***We are aware of Joe's arrest for sexual abuse of a minor We weren't able to get into it in this week's episode, but we will discussing it in depth next week.***

We start this episode with a heavy dose of irony, with Lego telling Cannon she better leave the house so she's not late. Even she seems more annoyed than normal at his antics. Cannon is taking some of the kids and Grandma to a charity event called Laundry Love. The Duggirls give a talk at an ATI conference, where Jilly Muffin is rocking some sweet business attire. While in Tennessee the family gets to tour the Grand Ole Opry and the neighboring Gaylord Opryland Hotel.

IBLP teaches its followers that they all have varying "Spiritual Gifts" that you receive when you are born again. In this week's Dig we are examining the seven "Spiritual Gifts", how they are defined, and what it looks like when they are misused.

One of the real Moms in this family is finally getting some time away. We watch as CinderJana takes a 10 day break from the fam to be a leader at the "Journey to the Heart" retreat. Meanwhile, while the family takes a bike ride, Soundman Jim proves that he is the engine that makes this show go.

In our Dig, Whit breaks down the aforementioned, Journey to the Heart program. We take a look at the genesis, the history and dig into "Wrong Heart Conditions."

Lego Hair plans a family excursion to a property that Grandma Duggar owns. He takes them on a hike through some very rough terrain. The footwear that this family chose was...ill-advised at best. At least in the last scene the kids decide to give Grandma a spa day.


In a previous episode recap there was an in-frame shot of Tim Tebow's first book, "Through My Eyes". We dig into the Tebow family, their connection into the IBLP sphere, and how Tim became a poster boy for Christians. It seems "Timmy" was being propped up to be a big deal before he was even conceived. We assume that was a rough comparison situation for this siblings...whatever their names are.

There are some big developments this week. Do you crave sopping wet chicken in a lukewarm-at-best "Flour Tortilla Shell"? The Chicken Kassuhdeeyuz recipe has been found! While the family was hosting some dinner guests, Whit and I discover and dig into a previously unknown ingredient in Tater Tot Casserole.

In our Dig, we continue with the second part of James Dobson's book, "The Strong Willed Child: Birth Through Adolescence." We get into the breadth, influence, and effects that this book has had on an entire generation who grew up under a parenting style based on this work.

We start the episode with the family doing a Mother's Day event. You know that even with Lego on the mic, The Stache was the real draw. Plus,the family gets their picture "made"...slowly but slowly.

In our Dig, we explore James Dobson's book "The Strong-Willed Child: Birth Through Adolescence". Our disgust for this vacuous trash bag and the book he wrote cannot be understated. The entire book is a way for Dobson to get sleep at night and justify villainizing your children and beating them. Alternate titles could have been "I don't mean to promote child abuse, but....."
