    FRUITLOOPS REVIEWS - Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets

    Please enjoy this Video Club episode from 2023 when Fruitloops Video Club reviewed Shiny Happy People: Duggar Family Secrets, a four-part docuseries on Amazon Prime.
    Synopsis: "Shiny Happy People exposes the truth beneath the wholesome Americana surface of reality tv’s favorite mega-family, The Duggars, Michelle and Jim Bob and their 19 kids, and the radical organization behind them: The Institute in Basic Life Principles (IBLP). As details of the family and their scandals unfold, we realize they’re part of an insidious, much larger threat already in motion, with democracy itself in peril.”

LovelessLottie ,

Unnecessary yapping

It takes entirely too long to get to the point of the story and once arriving at the story, Wendy becomes chatty and strays off-topic often I only listen to the short condensed versions to avoid this.

molethomhall ,

Too much irrelevant commentary

I wanted to like this podcast but on my first listen, it took about 13 minutes to get to the actual story. That’s half of my commute!

Black Vulcan 69 ,

Highly Recommend

I’m new to this incredibly entertaining and informative podcast! I’m enjoying listening to this brilliant podcast which showcases domestic and international crimes and events which are centered on many cases involving members of the African diaspora. I was largely unaware of many of these cases and I appreciate the analysis and explanation of these stories and incidents. Looking forward to listening to what’s to come!
