I don’t even watch LIB anymore I just listen to your recaps 🥰💕

Allie Barden

WHY DID CLAY DO THE SHOW?!?!

__fieldnotes

What broke my heart about AD, as a fellow *early* (I’m hangin onto that, don’t @ me) 30-something gal, was how she said “I thought it was finally my turn.” 😭 Mattie—you were on the right track, the officiant was Johnny’s brother in law. I’ve never cried at a LIB wedding until Amy and Johnny! Their families were so sweet. I believe in them more than Lauren and Cameron! I also noticed they skipped johnnys vows tho? So excited to see you queens in seattle in June! S/o to the sissies in the straggler cities still getting cock-teased w those tour tickets!

Nicole Roy

I think either for clout, or as an audition for Perfect Match. Cause that man was not here for love

TT

As soon as I saw Clay's dad's Alphi Phi Alphi pin that told me everything. Clay doesn't want to be in a marriage, he wants to be seen as a married man. Appearances are everything.

Erica Burks

I was hollering at the episode title being “Meet Me at the Altar” because I remember Jimmy using those Jagged Edge lyrics in his proposal. 😉

Brittanny Tucker

I cried for AD feeling like shes never enough and was a sacrifice for Clay to find who he was. That resonated with me so much and it hurt so bad

renee wheeler

Language matters! Yes, I’m a Poodle

Amy Kalasunas

“ Come over here, you b**ch!” - Daisy Duck - I SCREAMED

Lisa Paulk

Adding mint milanos to my instacart as you talk about being judged by your orders. Another perk of kids- I blame all the shit food on them.

Michelle Martinez Logsdon

As for Clay, he might have felt that he has changed from this experience, as Amye Archer says…he had “Browth” and not “Growth”. A much more shallow change that might not have even happened, but a bro thinks it has… And unfortunately, rumor is AD and Clay are still together as of thanksgiving 2023….so, she’s still making poor emotional investments for herself. She may need to process that.

Carey Addis

That bachelor party was so depressing. It looked like a Party we would’ve seen in 2020.

em shum

I clocked the "literal rollercoaster of emotions" too poodz 😅 I was like SHE'S RIGHT! *Gets banned from patreon*

Jen Greenan

I knew clay was a no because he was blinking waaaaay too much this whole episode

Courtney

It was me: I was the Black woman sissy that screamed over the Langston Hughes joke. 😂

Sarah Taafe

French onion dip is the best. I always knew my mom was stressed when she started eating it.

Ashley Janes

Waterparks are disgusting. Last time I went, there were pubes everywhere and one was stuck on my friend’s cheek.

Shan

The Kid ‘n Play reference tickled me. Y’all are the best. Fun fact, my mom grew up with Play!

Marquetta aka Marq

I felt so bad for AD. Clay had no business being on this show and playing in AD’s face. I think everyone is giving Clay too much credit for saying No. He knew he wasn’t ready. He knew AD was serious about the experience. And yet he played in her face; smiling all hard, showing his missing side tooth. I fast forwarded through Johnny and Amy. Happy for them. Beautiful gowns.

Sandra A.

the financial comment took me the fuck out. the gall!!

April Verhagen

AD literally said in the pods “I’m such a fix-a-ho, you can practice on me” and then is like “Why did he use me to get better but I’m not good enough…?” 🙄

Roxanne

Poodle is giving chelsea too much credit, it’s not like she meant to refer to the literal rollercoaster

Jenny Caldwell

I’m shocked poodle didn’t know what wet n wild was. We used to go to the one in Orlando all the time. But agreed I hate water parks now and haven’t been to one in like 20 years lol

Jennifer Riester

I'm not much of an emotional eater but every once in awhile you need to do it, and I think that's the hardest thing about having Celiac. It's so hard to emotionally eat ☹

Jacqueline Smith

Matty! You’re right! It was his brother in law!

Solange Crawford

We did meet Chelsea's mom via FaceTime during the wedding dress try on!

Elizabeth Moore

Mattie has some nerve calling the Prairie Home Companion stories too long! #okiestories

Mary Scheske

I walked down the aisle on my own - my dad sat and watched next to the rest of my family.

Caramela Spice

Singing the RG+ LIB theme song, waiting for this to drop. My husband asks “Is that the LIB theme song?” And that’s when I realize I don’t know what the actual LIB theme song is, because I love the RG+ version so much more.

Nery Herrera

Matty is so on point with the fighting couples at theme parks! When I was 15 I broke up with a boyfriend at knotts berry farm because he ordered the same meal as me at the concession stand. He had been doing that for months, also was clingy! So I ended it and we had to wait for our parents to come pick up several hours later. Ruthless

Claire Pancerz

This was an incredible season, probably the best since season one. Netflix needed a hit because season five was such a dud. At any rate, I’m exhausted from listening to all my wonderful podcast “friends” review and discuss. For the podcasters, it probably felt like you were running a marathon at a sprinter’s pace! Thank you, Queens for such great discussions and incredible Reality Gays Theater moments. It also warms my heart to see that you understand women and the crap we are often told/shown/have to deal with. Love you lots, MEAN IT. 💋

Toni Lawver

The officiant of Johnny/Amy wedding is the fiancé of Johnny's sister

Jilliann Gardner

I’m so surprised you guys liked AD’s makeup. I thought it wasn’t good and didn’t match the dress. She’s so pretty and I don’t think it accentuated her features.

Cecilia Adams

It’s never been brought up, but the whole season I’ve thought Clay was on drugs.

Val McCue

So true! I was at a county fair way up in a Ferris wheel and my college BF and I witnessed this couple getting caught by what it looked the man’s wife (he was totally having a date with the mistress) and the wife was chasing them all over the park screaming at them, and the saddest part was the wife was with their little kid and the poor boy was crying chasing after mom, chasing after dad with mistress.

Val McCue

Poodle, I also got teary eyed when I saw Amy’s brother walking his sister with dad, my boy is also on the spectrum, and he is about my boy’s age 🥹

Patsy

CAR TALK. Dewey Cheatem and Howe

Aida Flores

Clay’s mom’s body language during her conversation with Clay’s dad was everything. You could tell her blood was boiling and she didn’t wanna give that man any ounce of unnecessary attention, especially when he started making excuses for his behavior. She picked up her fan to cool herself down from her frustration 😂😂

Angela Cruz

Officiant for johnny and amy was Johnny's sister's fiance

TT

I never thought about that! But addiction is another level of secrecy that makes sense!

Katherine Rea

PLEASE stop reading me for my regrettable improv choices 😭

Lauren Anderson

Totallyyyy agree about the south/vs other places and slut shaming. I live in Denver but have a few friends from the south. When I was watching this episode with my roommate (also from colorado) she said “what’s the big deal…everyone has fucked a friend” 😂😂😂

Erica Minor

The guy who officiated Amy and Johnny’s wedding was Johnny’s sister’s husband! Or boyfriend. So his brother in law

Nery Herrera

Omg not me googling Sean Cody!!!! 😵‍💫😵‍💫 I thought he might have been an obscure tv actor but nope! Lmao

Madeline Wysong

Jimmy wanted that private Carowinds date, y’all. He saw it on the schedule and, as Clay would say, looked at himself in the mirror and said “….just a few more days…” 🤣 P.S. a friend of a friend was at Amy and Johnny’s wedding and that queen got himself in multiple shots. A star is born!

Jennifer Moseley

I can write a dissertation on why the concept of “my person” will destroy marriages. I swear every time someone says it part of brain atrophies.

Lizzy

The music is always SO on the nose it’s hilarious. Where do they find these songs? Also, does anyone else have a problem with Chelsea’s upper lip? I know it’s not naturally like that. Whenever she’s on screen I just STARE at it. It looks like if you were to tape your upper lip to your nose.

Marcy Rodenborn

I LOVED Johnny and Amy’s wedding from their lovely families merging to Amy’s Autustic brother walking her down the aisle then at the reception- Johnny’s brother had his arm around him. Just a beautiful celebration

Marcy Rodenborn

For the longest time, I thought the lyrics to the LIB theme song “it’s Reality Gays PRETENDING Love is Blind.”

Julie K

Agree: Jimmy wanted Chelsea to break it off. AD’s leg was distracting and that veil was a gimmick. The conversation between Clay’s parents gave me chills.

Hannah Goralewicz

We would listen to Car Talk every week! My mom loved it.

Enjoli Pickett

I will preface this as I am a mixed race woman (half black/half white) who had a non involved dad growing up. For years I was angry with him because I saw him take some of my siblings (I am the youngest of 16 kids he had) but I would only see him every 3-5 years. I thought I wasn’t good enough like AD said numerous times. When I became an adult, I had a chance to talk to him about it and he explained, “I knew you were safe with your mom and I was not in a good place to be with you. I took the other kids because I worried about them since their moms were on drugs and in/out of jail, I knew I didn’t have to worry about you. I never wanted my issues to stop you from being successful. I regret not being there more and not sending more money, but I never loved you any less and your mom did an amazing job raising you.” My dad had a horrible childhood and spent most of his younger years thinking his biological mom was his sister and then ending up in foster care. He never said a bad word about my mom and always told me how amazing I was and how much I would achieve. He passed away in 2014, 2 months after he gave my husband his blessing to marry me (after my husband got my mom’s blessing first). Now that I am an adult, I am thankful that he protected me from the bad influences and his struggle with drug use. I wish Clay’s dad would have thought more about how his actions would affect him. Clay needs so much therapy.

Lizzy

Poodle you’re right to not do waterparks. Every single time I went to Kalahari as a child I ended up with an eye infection as soon as I got home. There’s no water, only bacteria.

Claire Pancerz

And I’ve never seen a mouth turn down as much as hers does. I don’t know if she’s drawing it that way, or if the lip flip made it that way, or what. In the plus column, I love her lipstick color and would like to know more.

Julie K

They play a game on Another Podcast Network-Bad T.V. where they play awful soft pop songs and guess if they are Love is Blind music or not

Arden

Cameron (officiant) is the *fiancé* of one of Johnny’s sisters.

Marcy Rodenborn

The COURT JESTER is regular family viewing in our house since our daughter was little. It is HILARIOUS and I highly recommend

Sandra Munoz

When he said, I'm at peace with my decision I knew he was going to say no

Lizzy

It’s definitely a lip flip/filler situation. Her front teeth must feel so cold and dry since her lip is so flipped she can’t cover them 😭

Marcy Rodenborn

On 2BG1R, they were contacted by a woman purported to be in Jimmy’s friend group who said Jimmy and his friend were ongoing FWBs to the point they were like “why don’t you two just get together.” Look, not a Chelsea fan, but I don’t think Jimmy liked her from the reveal on.

Alyssa Krieger

Wait what was the SK and Raven comment?! I thought Raven had a bf????

Jacqueline Smith

When Jimmy said “I think the world of you.” It was sooooo obviously done. It’s weird how something that sounds nice is such a gut punch!

Frances

Car Talk is AMAZING!! Not a huge fan of Prairie Home Companion but I spent a lot of time listening to This American Life in college.

Steph 👩🏻‍🦰

The last time I went to a water park I left with some kind of mutant strep throat that lasted for two weeks. NEVER AGAIN

kristie1180

So do we know if Jimmy is still alive?? Or did he get eaten by a dragon?

Jackie Weisman

Mattie shared NOTHING with me. Not even a wink. He will forever be the keeper of my secrets moving forward.

Laura Vega

The Langston Hughes reference reminded me of the Strangers With Candy episode where they cast all white people for the high school production of Raisin in the Sun 😂

Jackie Weisman

While I felt bad for AD, she was told many times many different ways who Clay was and what he would say at the alter.

Laura Vega

Adults who wear their fraternity pins at non-alumni events are walking red flags.

Laura Vega

Get me the crunchiest kettle chips and a tub of French onion dip and get out of the splash zone!

Se Mo

I’m flabbergasted about this Raven/SK news…

Laura Vega

Water park water is too viscous for my liking.

Ashley Murray

You mentioned “Species”.. my dad took me to see that at the movie theatre when I was 5. F.I.V.E! Lots of therapy was needed but I’m ok! lol

Rachel in NC

I love you I love you I love you I love you (but I’m really hopeful that matty stops saying ‘fix-a-h0…’ i know AD called herself that but ugh I cringeeeeee!) I really love you though. So much.

Gardenqueen651

I think both Chelsea and AD were told in various ways that Jimmy and Clay were going to say no, but they weren't really listening, but also both guys should have just said no from the get. The fact that Clay had AD stand in front of family and friends and say no, that's reason enough for her to say “byeeeeeee.”

Abby Ziff

Can we please please acknowledge that this was said between 2 friends. Meredith Gray to Christina Yang. “You’re my person” was never said between 2 lovers. It got co-opted to that mind numbingly trite word art phrase as a replacement for soul mate. They’re both egregious but “you’re my person” was to celebrate a friendship.

Abby Ziff

Oh yes, waterparks are disgusting and I didn’t have to learn the hard way, just the snobby way. I would never set foot in such a disease infested petri dish!! ;)

Abby Ziff

How far you Queens have come that you casually drop an Arbuckle’s Wilderness reference without breaking into song! I guess the animals are no longer waiting for you, huh?? 😉 Please do better!!

Suzanne P

The car talk guys passed away 😪

Abby Ziff

How many cliches, trite expressions or other “word art” style sentences did Trevor speak. If you go back and listen, about 90% of his dialog was platitudes. And then here comes Clay, speaking the same way.. “Okay AD, you’re Aaaalll Day” and talking about how “suavay” his dad was. I guess someone finally told him it’s “suave” To Poodle and Matty’s point, they just speak in platitudes. No substance.

Mandy G

Oh, my Uncle Jerry would listen to car talk ALLLLLL time! LOL

J Moore

Omg, I loved Car Talk! Long before podcasts it was a way I soothed my anxiety.

Julie Erdfelt

My father passed away about 8 months before my wedding so I walked myself down the aisle. I considered asking an uncle, but I didn't feel like anyone else should be given that honor. When my last bridesmaid had started walking I did find myself feeling very alone. Luckily the DJ had brought his wife to the wedding and they were close by so I asked her to stand with me for the time I had to wait for the music to change. So, I recommend to those looking to walk themselves to get a friend to stand with you until you walk.

Hollan Read

Matty’s whole analysis of AD and Clay. I listened to it three times and sent the episode to a friend. Ya’ll read me (and probably a lot of ladies) for filth! That being said, I felt exactly the same when I watched AD’s family cry. And when I watched her mom cry in that previous episode. There’s some real trauma there that isn’t healing for whatever reason.

Erin Oliver

Are we sure SK and Raven are back together??? I need some proof.

Val McCue

Yes! I was never on the Trevor train, just another meathead, and boy, I wasn’t wrong, he’s a thirsty meathead with a girlfriend who knew the whole thing, YIKE

Abby Ziff

I’m flabbergasted that Raven is flogging her own active wear brand on Amazon. No worries Kate Hudson!

Mikyla Tuggle

I’m walking down the aisle on my own and my dad is excited about it. He said “Good, you don’t need a man to give you away! I raised you better than that” 🤣

Charmaine-Joan DePaepe

OMG I’m a Disneyland cast member and yes. Fighting couples are radioed to security and dealt with lol

Becky Bechel

I’m a lighting designer and I loved hearing you guys talk about cue to cue. Lol! Also, I can’t wait to hear you on 2 Black Girls 1 Rose.

Jessica Pyper

Clay shouldn’t have proposed. He just wanted to be on the show to further an influencer status.

Breanna K. Williams

As a Howard University Graduate with a BFA in Acting, I squealed at the Langston joke. I would also recommend the entire Century Cycle aka Pittsburgh Plays to any non Black person looking to better understand aspects of The Black Experience in America. August Wilson has the distinction of being the only playwright to write a play set in each decade of the 20th century and they all explore the African American Experience. Read them now before they’re forever banned.

Verona Williams

I was so over Clay’s bullshit this entire season. His whole “I wanna go to therapy with you,” aspirational talk seemed so fake and paper thin it was nauseating. Then… you could see the fear all over his face when he was talking with his dad. I’m not a Clay fan now by any means but his whole persona makes so much sense now, and I realized is entire genuine for him. I hope this whole experience doesn’t put him years back in his efforts to heal

Shelby Andrews

I do think the world of my lesbian aunt 😂😂 Her partners name is Tammy though

Elizabeth

“WELCOME TO CAAAAAA TAWK. CALL US IF YOU HAVE ANY QUESTIONS ABOUT CAAAS.” I used to LOVE car talk 😂

Jen

I walked down the aisle on my own. I stood in my own power and didn’t let toxic relationships force me to walk with someone who never loved or supported me.

Erica Garcia

Daisy Duck is a bitch 💅🏽! RIP Click and Clack Car Talk Guys

Jenn

You guys nailed it…Chelsea is a cheater. I think she’s done it before (several times) and that’s where the fear of him, or any man, doing something that she herself has done to others comes from.

erin.vip

Love y’all! Gonna miss these recaps! Sometimes I play an ep just to hear the theme song 😆 🎶Love is bliiiiiiind!🎶 Until next season 🫶🏼

TT

Agreed, anytime a person accuses you of cheating constantly when it's not the case...Thieves always think people are stealing from them!

TT

I wonder too! Why was he on? Did he not even read the title of th the show?

Traci G.

Car talk, Langston university and a dream deferred all in one episode. Chef’s kiss.

Rachael Hamilton

If you go back to the true origin of greys anatomy my person is my person I can put down as my emergency contact to have an abortion. Not romantic, but friendship. Kinda beautiful 😻

Sara

When I was 11 or 12, I went to a water park and came out of the wave pool missing my bikini bottom. I pass on those now!

Olivia N

The way I was sobbing when Amy’s dad “I Give you my treasure” 🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹🥹

Gardenqueen651

Y'all, I did hear that they get fined like 50 K if they don't make it to the altar.

Ebony Jones

I crackled at the dream deferred joke 😆

Laura Kalisch

I clocked “literally” too 😂

Jaide

Someone said Clay and AD talk to each other like IG comments and I can’t get over the accuracy

Elizabeth Marks

🙋🏼‍♀️ I'm a Sissy that knows the Vessel with the Pestle and the Flagon with the Dragon! Love Danny Kaye!

Kate Prothero

I appreciate the Michael Eisner reference 😅🤣

Marie Zuloaga

I really loved these insights on clay and his parents. I’m so lucky to have a dad who DID apologize to ME for cheating on my mother. When I was in high school was when he got caught and I hated him for so long. When I was in my 20s I told him how much I hated him for years and he cried and apologized to me. He said he didn’t know it affected me so much. Today, we have a great relationship and him and my mother are still together. Their marriage is weird but that’s their stuff lol

Lizzy

I’ll never forget when I was very young my parents and their friends took all us kids to some rinky-dink local waterpark which was essentially a large mud puddle with some slides. The next day me and EVERY other kid in the group were projectile vomiting. We didn’t eat anything there so it had to be the water itself 😭

Felicia Buday

I came here to say this! One time after a VERY long day at DisneyWorld in JULY with two kids my sister and I started arguing about where to watch the fireworks. I swear within 1 minute a cast member came over and was asking if we were OK.

Emily K

As soon as he said that, I was like, 😬😬😬 -- My mom uses that phrase when talking about older relatives. "Oh, they just think the world of you!"

Carey Addis

I only like it when I am PMSing. So I associate it with anger, tears, and self-loathing for 3 weeks a month and pure joy the 4th week.

Carey Addis

We get season passes every year because what else do you do with 4 kids in Ohio? I unknowingly took home a bloody pad on the bottom of my flip flop and once found my baby son playing with a condom (unused thank God).

Carey Addis

In high school I worked summers at an amusement park. There’s a whole gambit of couple reacts. Sex in alleys is very popular. Engagements are even more common and depressing. At least the fights seem like normal human behavior that should be seen at amusement parks.

mess_this_blessica

Thank you for what you said about people being at different points in emotional intelligence/growth. It really comes to a point where the relationship can’t work. It’s the reason I’m getting separated :)

Abby Ziff

I’m cold and heartless because those kinds of comments are way too “Butterfly Kisses” for my comfort level..

Abby Ziff

Yes!! I commented on this too. It was about your ride or die friend, not your romantic partner!!

Abby Ziff

….of course it is!! If Tammy is not the perfect name for a middle aged lesbian, I don’t know what is!

Abby Ziff

Breanna, I love this reference and I am laughing and fully appreciating that someone as high brow as yourself is a sissy!!! I am 100% going to check out the Century Cycle/ Pittsburgh Plays. ❤️❤️

Abby Ziff

Does anyone remember when Clay said, in the pods, I don’t see why this necessarily has to end in marriage if we’re cool with each other and AD very quickly and astutely answered something like “I’m not going to keep dating you- that’s the whole point of the show” That’s why she said “Don’t do this” when they were at the altar and he was trying to play it off like I’m saying no but why can’t we keep dating? Because we already fucking addressed it Clay. He said afterward, he felt stupid and didn’t realize it was so serious. I believe that he genuinely thought he could get to the altar, say no, keep dating (for about 12 minutes) and then go find a basic white girl to feed his ego. From day one AD had to deliver and if she wasn’t an IG model, she needed to have money. In Clay’s mind, AD was not up to his standards.

Abby Ziff

I was so distracted by the delicious looking( tho probably disgusting) sliders that no one touched! That made me tear up…

Abby Ziff

True, but Garrison Keillor is a gross perv so it’s just as well Matty didn’t sully himself with that filth..

Abby Ziff

Pretty sure Poodz was “mock” giving her credit. She’s not clever enough to be that literal.

Abby Ziff

I feel like we really lost sight of AD’s journey in the beginning and how she was the one who really bonded with Matthew and “got” him. She was so captivated by him and then when that blew up, suddenly Clay is “the one”. AD was originally going for the “good guy” with something to offer her, not the taker.

Breanna K. Williams

Thanks Abby, I really appreciate that. I’m just well rounded like our Reality Gays. After all, Mattie is a therapist and Poodle probably has a whole Libretto dedicated to Chekov’s gun. 😂 At the end of the day, I’m just a dick pig that retains information well 🤗and if you ever want to discuss the plays, feel free to contact me. There’s even a tv version of “The Piano Lesson” that aired on CBS years ago starring Alfre Woodard and an adaptation of “Ma Rainey’s Black Bottom” on Netflix, which was one of Chadwick Boseman’s last performances.

Stephanie Young

Just FYI Mattie…it’s Frontier City on I-35 in OKC.

Jennifer Riester

Just talked to my friend who was SHOCKED that Clay said no at the alter, she needs help 🤣

Rose

Did anyone else think it was REALLY weird that they spent the first couple episodes really building up interest in Matthew, he was basically one of the main characters, they purposely chose to include him in the final edit saying he was leaving and "going to find Amber", and then... we never see him again???? Like especially what was the point of including that final line of his, it strongly implies there's going to be some followup, like it was a hook to keep us watching to see what happens with him and/or Amber and then... nothing?? Was that a really weird editing choice, or.... I dunno, it doesn't seem like a great choice by this highly produced, edited, financially successful show.

Chelsea Raycraft

I’ve been wondering if we’d see him again too. I think he wasn’t at the bbq because he didn’t get along with anyone else including the guys. So who would he socialize with? I hope we get some info on the reunion episode.

Taheerah Bilal

SK and raven are NOT together she's had a new man for a while now

Erika D. 🧡

Loved wet’n’wild! lol! ‘Splash of water is like urine’ 😂😂

Erika D. 🧡

Amen, sisters! To everything! ❤️ Love yall. See you in Denver.

Danielle G

Are you covering the actually decent reunion? It was run much better than 90 day’s tell alls lately.

Elizabeth King

I've seen the court jester! I love Danny Kaye!!

Bonnie G

I MISS CAR TALK SO MUCH

Amy Diehl

I walked down the Aisle by myself & it was glorious 😀😀😀

Michelle Schloss Caswell

Literally listened to this episode on my drive to work to start teaching Fences in my high school English classes. Thanks for the reference, Mattie and Poodle - Clay IS Troy!! 😭 “Fences II: More Fences” I SHRIEKED
