We continue with little Josie growing, and Lego continuing to uhhh...Lego. This time with the kids at the zoo! We get another appearance of the Cracker Jack cosplay, hopefully not the last. In our Dig, we get into one of the numerous Billy G's. We are slowly covering all of the Grahams, Billy maybe Teddy. (I love teddy grahams!) We explore his Revival's Explosion onto the scene and how he became "America's Pastor". Please do not let any Mrs Butterworth's or Land O Lakes on the table if I'm...

We're Just Chill Man, We Don't Need To Objectively Think About Anything, We're Just Vibing With The Bible! (I Capitalized All Words In This Description Because...

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?

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...

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.

The Brood decides to eat out in public at a favorite of *gasp!!!* Bill Clinton! Jana and Jill get a view of their future job when they go visit Josie in the hospital. To pay off our Dig cliffhanger last week, we present what Tim is calling Jesus Camp 2 : Electric Boogaloo. We continue on and explore some themes throughout the documentary, the reaction, and catch up with the 3 main children from it. Join us as we dig on fans of things that can create beautiful odes to their fandom with modern...

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...

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? Dig on over to...

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...

In our recap, we explore some Hanny Moments while the Duggars take a trip to the park. Later, in a big milestone since her birth, Cannon gets to hold Josie for the first time. In the Dig, we explore a Wisdom Booklet and the supplementary curriculum they use. We are digging on Lake Street Dive and some pet Parent Lingo. Like what you hear? Would you like to support us?

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...

Welcome aboard, the Blood Vessel (Venture Brothers reference). We show the Dugggirls going with Lego to donate blood, as Grandma maintains a historic home and all the littles. Lots of preparations for eating with a trip to the grocery store and baby Josie gets a feeding tube. In our Dig, we explore the complicated Jehovah's Witness blood policy. Buckle Up, cause the whiplash in this episode is wild! Like what you hear? Would you like to support us? Dig on over to...

Welcome back from the Holiday Break. Hope you had a wonderful Toyotathon! Enjoy the Inception and (maybe) end of a segment called "What We're Harpin' On". The place for your hot, Duggar-related Harp News. In the episode recap, we watch the brood invade a historic house. In our Dig, we look at the Arkansas Birth Control Movement and the Specific, Avengers-style team up to try and get Family Planning into women's hands. If you have a good Marvel-based pun for the name of this team-up,...

We're here with a bonus episode! Over on buymeacoffee.com/diggingupthedug , we drop bonus episode and posts that we call Pickles. Here's a sneak preview of this content for everyone. It's our recap, post-holiday to get us back into the groove. Enjoy!

Let's get it out of the way. There is way too much Pest in this one, folks. We had a good half season where we didn't have to watch him try to lead a show like dear ole, Lego Hair. No Fank You. In the Dig, we examine the "War On Christmas" and its origins. How it, oddly, involves early days of Amazon, and join us as we push out the good vibes in What We're Digging On. Happy Holidays...everybody. Like what you hear? Would you like to support us? Dig on over to...

Join us as we watch a Christmas episode. The family is split between being with Josie in Little Rock and the rest of the brood back at the Tater Tot Mansion. Cannon tells us that with Christmas, the kids have more work. They always have all the work, what's the difference?! In our Dig, we look into what ole Billy G tells his followers about gallstones and c-sections. Make sure you contact your elders if you have bitter thoughts after listening to this episode. Like what you hear? Would...

Episode 70 - Uuuuuhhh...yeah Aaaaaaaaannnnnnnnddddddd.......We're Back!!! Welcome to our Season 4 kickoff. Reap the rewards of the Duggars bigger budget! Better intro cards, Check! Better backgrounds for talking heads, Check! New bingo cards, Check! We recount the special that showcases the birth of Josie.

Here we are! We've reached the end of season 3! Usually a season ending episode would have a lot more fanfare, but its a little anti-climatic. We watch as the behind the camera crew gets a little bit of facetime and we learn the seedy rumors about "Frana". In an absolutely epic Digg, we learn about what was the catalyst for the satanic panic. Get Whitney's merit badge ready because this source material was a painful read. Next week is the 3rd State of the Pod episode. Make sure to quickly...

We get right down to the Bates and a cast of (seemingly) thousands, trying to finish their house. Watch as the Bates kids get their Volunteer Firefighter on. Yearn for some delicious, Southern cooking (boiled hot dogs). See Erin Bates slamming those ivories as volunteer labor tries to build her new house around her! Sorry Folks, no Kass-uh-dee-yuz this time. Grab your shovels as we Digg in to ole Billy G's thoughts on finances and how they reflect your dedication to the Lord. Be warned,...

We haven't seen the Bates in a while. That bingo square was getting a little lonely. We join the Duggars as they are on the road, stopping in Pigeon Forge. We get to see Jessa celebrate her birthday with a light spa day with her sisters. We get the first Dug-girls talking head and watch as the Bates drop, almost, 3K on groceries since they will be hosting so, so many people. In the Dig, we explore Halloween and all the scare tactics (see what we did there?) that some groups use to...
