Episode notes

In this "After Dark" edition, Ashley and Johnette dive into the darkest, weirdest, and most controversial corners of social media and reality TV. We’re moving past "emotional support chickens" and diving straight into a habit that left us speechless: a woman addicted to the scent of her father’s dirty laundry. Then, we shift gears to a chilling investigation into a modern-day "segregation" settlement in the Ozarks. Finally, we tackle the ethics of reality TV. From a 12-year-old father on TLC’s Unexpected to the "legalized trafficking" of Courtney Stodden’s 2011 child-bride scandal.
