20. Sinners vs. Saints | Secret Lives of Mormon Wives Episode 3 Recap
The MomTok divide crystallizes when Jen and Zach uninvite Jesse, Demi, Layla, and Taylor from their baby blessing, separating the "good Mormons" from everyone else. Whitney's poor taste fruity pebbles gift to Demi at Galentine's Day only deepens the rift. From hot-tub tension to Galentine's shade, Austin and Jessalynn dissect the friendship politics, calling out emotional maturity gaps, judgment around sexuality, and how beauty standards collide with religious rules. We examine Utah soda culture vs. alcohol, class signals, the "uninvite," and why code switching shows up so often in tight-knit faith communities. We close with the baby blessing ceremony and its implications for gender and belonging. A recap of Hulu's Secret Lives of Mormon Wives (SLOMW) Season 1 Episode 3.
