She Built a “Hoe Finder” with a Broom: Auntie Wigs Strikes Again
In this jaw-dropping episode of Ricky’s Big World, Auntie Wigs is BACK, and she’s built a homemade “hoe finder” out of a broom, a paper plate, and pure vengeance. Ricky recounts the chaos that erupted after Auntie Wigs’ trip to Louisiana went sideways, Monica disrespected her wig samples, and Uncle Pork Bottoms caught feelings for a NASA engineer. What follows is a full blown southern family meltdown featuring woodchippers, pork rind feuds, and weaponized synthetic hair.
Meanwhile, Ricky reflects on his hard-headed daddy, a trip to Columbus, and why funerals on one side of the family are way too normal.
This episode is full of chaos, love, betrayal, wigs, pork, and one very haunted broom.
