Summary: <br> <br> [dropcap]T[/dropcap]he Sisters claim it's the "middle" of summer when summer literally starts the day after this podcast is published. That's what having kids does to ya! Crazy children!<br> <br> So let's talk about the so-called "LDS Millionaire" that has cast a pall of love and intensity over Utah. Brought to you by the fools that started "The Mormon Bachelorette" and later sold out to The LDS Matchmaker, this Mormon Millionaire stuff involved a bunch of poor women showing up to an empty red carpet at a random country club, then being presented with a PowerPoint presentation and a creepy silhouette of said millionaire.<br> <br> Who is this man? We may never know. Is he a single millionaire? Multi-millionaire? What are his assets? What are these "millionaire dates" of which they speak? The fine folks at <a href="https://www.thebeehive.com/an-lds-millionaire-update" target="_blank" rel="noopener">The Beehive have a killer rundown of the entire, stupid affair.</a><br> <br> Not to be left out, <a href="https://www.ksl.com/article/46576848/2-women-share-their-experience-at-the-lds-millionaire-event" target="_blank" rel="noopener">KSL ran some coverage</a>, too, and since the Church owns KSL, we can clearly assume that the Church sanctions this idiotic enterprise.<br> <br> Allegedly, treks are going to be nixed! No more treks! This is anecdotal, of course, but that's the rumor. Yay for rumors!<br> <br> Last week, President Nelson spoke at a large gathering of Latter-day Saints at the Amway Center in Orlando, Florida. (Yes, the Mormons gathered in a facility named after an MLM. It was all apropos.) But aside from the expected uplifting remarks and presence by the best former mission president in the Church (per Geoff), President Nelson also <a href="https://www.deseretnews.com/article/900074619/president-russell-m-nelson-orlando-pulse-nightclub-owner-church-of-jesus-christ-of-latter-day-saints-mormon.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">met with the owner of the Pulse nightclub,</a> where a horrific mass shooting occurred in 2016. This was an excellent meeting of minds and hearts.<br> <br> We're straight up confused about this one. Apparently <a href="https://www.dailystar.co.uk/news/weird-news/784132/prisoners-mormons-hot-chocolate-church-of-the-latter-day-saints" target="_blank" rel="noopener">inmates in the United Kingdom pretend to be Mormons in order to get hot chocolate</a>? Uh... This is from the Daily Star, so... yeah... But...<br> <br> Hey! So the Oakland California Temple was finally rededicated <a href="http://thisweekinmormons.com/2017/02/washington-dc-oakland-california-temples-to-close-for-major-renovations/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">after a multi-year renovation</a>. But you know what else happens at the Oakland temple? Quinceañear photos! Yes, the famed California landmark is <a href="https://www.mercurynews.com/2019/06/17/for-catholic-quinceaneras-oaklands-mormon-temple-is-place-to-be" target="_blank" rel="noopener">wildly popular with the Hispanic teen community</a> when it comes to celebrating the special day. Of course, the Church now kindly asks that the limos park off site.<br> <br> VidAngel. We love what VidAngel does, but there's no denying that its previous business model was legally suspect. <a href="http://thisweekinmormons.com/2019/03/vidangel-found-liable-for-copyright-infringement/" target="_blank" rel="noopener">A judge ruled as such in the spring</a>, and now a jury <a href="http://thisweekinmormons.com/2019/06/vidangel-order-to-pay-over-62-million-in-damages">has handed down a hefty fine</a> - over $62 million - to the plucky streaming startup. Is this the end?<br> <br> Hey, so Manti's <a href="https://www.deseretnews.com/article/900075215/mantis-mormon-miracle-pageant-prepares-to-come-to-a-close-with-52-years-of-memories.html" target="_blank" rel="noopener">Mormon Miracle pageant is drawing to a close</a>,
