Swallow

 
One positive thing about the new show "Thicker than Water" is the dedication Ben Tankard shows his wife Jewel on the show . Listening to him you would think he was married to Kenya Moore or Nicole Murphy. He describes her as a smoking hot wife. She isn't bad looking, but she isn't anything to sound the alarms about either. I think Ben's position as a husband is safe. Ben and Jewel Tankard both are motivational speakers. So obviously neither of them suffer from a lack of self esteem. They are arrogant to a fault. They constantly brag about how much money they have. But their children still have pipe dreams and work regular jobs. That's the difference between being rich and wealthy.

This couple is good at putting one hundred on ten. He is quick to say he is the top selling gospel/jazz  recording artist of all time. But he fails to mention he is the first and only one. What he is doing is straddling the fence between the two genres. Then you have his wife. She talks about how she has been an entrepreneur since she graduated from college. But she made her millions with Ardyss International. A corporate name for distributors of Body Magic. A ponzi scheme with a product. She exploited the church community with promises of riches. But she didn't beat anybody out of their life savings. She just sold her clients a dream. This woman thinks you can do anything as long as you say "Thank you Jesus" first. I used to think she was the mouthpiece of  this duo. But they both are a lot to digest. Just listening at them talk about themselves. The pieces are too big to swallow.
