Epik Brandons - Maskless in Montana | The Epik Life | Part 4

[NotHateButUhh]

Neysa clearly doesn’t know what the word “exasperated” means .

I shook my head so hard at that! oh my goodness...

Neysa should teach Shiloh the guitar. The poor kid always wanted to do more ukulele lessons and was never able to, and this whole time Neysa could have been teaching him guitar chords (yes, it’s not ukulele, but he was old enough to learn guitar instead)

[NotHateButUhh]

I have a lot of questions for them but they’d all get me blocked lol

[Jaybird]

She answered some of her q&a questions... all with totally factual answers *insert sarcasm*. She said there were too many so she’s making a vlog. Her fb has a post asking if they should go back to vlogging, so I guess that’s coming.

[Hydrangea]

The one about how Cozette’s mouth will magically become normal 30 days after stopping the paci was quite hilarious.

Yeah she answered another question saying that they are planning on going back to vlogging once a week (not sure when though). She also seems really adamant on buying a house, but honestly they need to focus on getting jobs first (at least Jason).

She also answered that question about Cozette's teeth so passive aggressively. Like sorry, but you're almost 3 year old does not need a pacifier!

The one about how Cozette’s mouth will magically become normal 30 days after stopping the paci was quite hilarious.

She has 7 kids she is a specialist in children’s mouth and teeth.

I have 8 fingers, so if any of you have a problem with one, I know ALL about them, had 8 fingers all my life.

She makes me angry. She doesn’t care about Cozettes teeth as long as she still looks like a baby and talks like a baby. Once all her baby teeth fall, her new teeth will grow normal. Apparently she had ruined the teeth of most of her babies who are now kids or teens and are ok. So that’s that.
Also Coco is still in diapers, and Neysa won’t be potty training her. Even when some time ago Cozette got stomach aches for holding her poo because according to Neysa “she doesn’t like how it feels like to be pooped”. If that’s not a clear sign telling you she is ready to be potty trained I don’t know what is.

And they got covid apparently. I mean quite possible because they don’t care and aren’t safe. But also, you actually have to get a PCR test to know if you got it and I sincerely doubt any of them had it done. So she suspects they had covid but she doesn’t know, which she will never admit. She is a covid specialist just as much as with baby teeth.

Also she loves Montana because of the freedom of being able to go everywhere, not having to wear masks and the outdoors. The only place I saw them go out every single insta story was when they were in California AND it was not allowed.
If it’s ok to go out, then she keeps the kids locked inside. If it is somehow banned they will go to the taped park.

[Carissa]

There is no possible way they were ever tested for Covid. Neysa's been saying they all had Covid in December. Of 2019! But they don't believe in doctors and don't have health insurance so I know they were never tested. But hey, the flu is way worse says Neysa. Its just a shame she can't explain that to the half million dead Americans she gives not a single shit about.

[Doopher]

Wow. These kids are so lucky that their mom is such a goddamned brilliant renaissance woman! We already know that she’s basically a medical genius who not only knows everything about every single medical disorder, but she’s got an essential oil to cure it! And now we’re just learning that she’s basically a board certified dentist/orthodontist as well!? Wow! She’s so humble for not making that known sooner. So basically, has she taken her chucky-looking daughter to a dentist? No! Why? Because neysa has SEVEN kids! She obviously knows what a child’s mouth is so why on earth would she PAY someone else for their expert opinion? (Well to be fair, we know the Brandons aren’t paying anything to anyone because they’re above “jobs” and “working” and “providing for their family”) Neysa is so lucky that she’s so much smarter than everyone else. In fact, she knows SO much that she’s decided that she doesn’t need to learn anything else or hear anyone else’s opinions. I mean, why would she want to learn about “facts” when it’s so much easier to just make up her own! At this rate, why even buy a house? She should just build one herself. I’m sure she knows more about building houses than any professional contractor. It’ll be the best house ever! She can build a special room where she can store all of her guns and trump hats! And she can build another space where her delusional daughter can keep pretending that she’s qualified to train service dogs!

[Jaybird]

Her level of ignorance is astounding. But I gotta give it to her, her determination to stick to her nonsense explanations and belief that she is an expert at EVERYTHING is kind of impressive. She’s very committed to her stupidity.

I can’t wait to hear the explanation about why Jason doesn’t have a job. And how are they paying rent ( she said that it’s a month to month rental) or affording a gym membership if no one other than Hanni is employed?

When I was a kid, my father was in a union that seemed to go on long strikes nearly every other year. As soon as he was on strike, my father would go out and get whatever jobs he could. During one strike, he had three jobs. He helped a friend with his roofing business, stocked shelves in supermarket at night and filled in for a school janitor who was out on leave. I cannot imagine him taking a year of Me Time while his 16 year old daughter worked a full-time day job instead of doing schoolwork. Jason is an entitled spoiled brat. A 37 year old entitled spoiled brat with 8 dependents.

Sure Neysa. Tell us all about that 5 bedroom house you guys are gonna build real soon. Just keep telling us (and yourself) those sweet, sweet little lies.

By the time they can afford to buy or build a house, all those kids will have fled.

I also like that they need to find a place to live that doesn’t enforce the laws that make it illegal to not have enough bedrooms for the children. Like, try and tell me again how she and her husband are doing everything in the best interest of their kids. School? Nope. Friends? Hilarious. Any kind of activity! Nada. Doctors? Forget it. Masks? Infringes on their “rights.” A fucking bedroom? Please! In order to have a house that has enough space for their family, SOMEONE would have to (god forbid) get a JOB! And that’s out of the question obviously.

Is there actually laws over in some of the states which dictate how many kids to a bedroom?! That's crazy. Totally invasive to a family. Go back 100years or so and it would be common to have 5+ kids in a bedroom, 3-4 in a bed. Not sure why nowadays there would need to be a law about it.

Really?
A 100 years or so ago children could work (no laws banning children working), school was not mandatory aso.
I’m not familiar with the laws in the USA but generally speaking these are not brutal impossible to comply with laws. For example every child should have their own bed, bedrooms must have windows and so on.

I don’t think the government checks if you comply with this I your own house. But if you’re renting, the person who is renting their house to you has to make sure they’re not doing anything illegal.

No, not in states. Neysa mentioned once that Billings has an ordinance that requires residential rental agents to only lease apartments that have enough bedrooms for all of the children. If you own a house and have two bedrooms with seven kids, there's no problem with that. And if you rent a house from a private party, there is also no oversight. They rented from a private party the first time they were in Billings because they had five kids and it was a three bedroom house.

I grew up in a house that had three kids to a room, and I don't see anything wrong with that. But seven kids in one room would be wrong and I suspect the ordinance is in place to curtail rental agents from making sales by cramming large families into tiny spaces.

As they are currently "renting" from a private owner (the church), they are able to put as many kids as they want in the space. It appears the only kids who have a bedroom are the two little ones who are with Hanni in a room so she can tend to them at night instead of their parents. The other four boys appear to be sleeping in the basement on cots or air mattresses.

Part of my job involves helping vulnerable families find secure housing. I live in Canada, and yes, there are rules in my province which dictate how many people should be sharing rooms, as well as boys and girls sharing rooms after a certain age. Some landlords will look the other way, but many won't because the more people in the apartment, the more damage it causes. So having a family of say 9 (like the Brandons) in a 3 bedroom (which is probably all they could afford, if that) would be pretty risky. It's very tough on large families who have low incomes and can't afford larger unit rent prices. The Brandons are lucky to have a place that's willing to accommodate them right now. I'm not sure how long that luck will last. I do home one or both of the parents will get a job and allow their CHILDREN to: Go.
To. School.
I do agree that it gets a bit meddlesome to try to tell families exactly how to live their lives. All over the world, kids and parents share one bedroom, and even one mattress on the floor, and many of them, when they come to Canada, actually prefer that.

It sure is taking awhile for her to get that job vlog up... she must be running out of lies and make believe stories to tell.

She's too busy playing with her phone and sticking safety pins into her fingers.

Jason has been out of work for a year. And it appears Neysa is too special to consider a job while he waits for the Second Coming of Donald Trump. They are incredibly fortunate to have the little church house, but I can't imagine they won't wear out their welcome at some point.

I get that these two like flying by the seat of their pants and think Jesus will protect them (and frankly, they've been lucky so far) but we can only guess how stressful this is for the kids. Some of whom haven't even had actual beds for the past 5 months.

I really wish you had made this up. But alas.

I don’t know if it’s just me, but Cozette cannot pronounce at all, and her enunciation is awful. By the way does anyone know if you can upload videos?
