Show Notes
Ever wondered how Cannon would fare, having to actually watch multiple little ones and 2 dogs on top of it? Not well. They are pet-sitting 2 puppies and we proceed to watch the kids stuff these poor dogs with lots of cheese, more cheese, and then, cheesy eggs. Poor things.
In a follow up to last week's Dig, we explore the IBLP version of finishing school, EXCEL. They have to train all these little ladies on how to grow up and be manipulated and coerced by their authorities. We look at how it evolved, what they were teaching, and get an outsiders view of these girls through a newspaper journalist embedded with them. Joy Branch is the girl you never want to meet.

More from Digging Up the Duggars
We all know Lego Hair is the epitome of buffoonery and incompetence, but he is in rare form in this episode. Even Cannon pulled out her rare, high pitched annoyed voice.
The producers really ramped up the drama in this one when Pest and Anna confer with Lego and Cannon about a potential move out of state, for a job. Later, the brood goes to collect Joe from his ALERT graduation.
Steve is back to torture Pest and Lego. He has them training outdoors for the first time. Little Jordyn is having to have her tonsils out, but it means all the popsicles and ice cream she wants. We end the episode with the Stache being the only one privy to the “ginder” of Pest and Anna’s next blessing.
At the Pest Nest, Josh’s helpmeet shows us how she’s trying to cook healthier while still making something children will eat. Mackynzie has the secret to being able to enjoy this new menu. Meanwhile, at the Tater Tot Mansion, there’s a whole army of people coming over for dinner. Trainer Steve and his family joined the brood. Steve even brought his Pastor, and his family. In our Dig, we continue the second half of the Andrea Yates story.
In this week’s Dig, we take a look at the highly publicized case of Andrea Yates, and how it ties in with themes and topics we discuss in this podcast.
