'House Party' Podcast: The Latest Duggar Drama; Is Your Furniture Timeless or Tired?

“House Party” is realtor.com’s official podcast about the overlapping worlds of real estate and pop culture, hosted by Natalie Way, Erik Gunther, and Rachel Stults. Click the player above to hear our takes on this week’s hot topics.

And now our (Duggar) watch has begun.

The stars of TLC’s “19 Kids and Counting” are making real estate moves almost faster than we can keep up. Not only are Jim Bob and Michelle Duggar, the prolific parents of reality-TV fame, selling off a prime piece of property, but Josh and Anna Duggar have been forced to slice their asking price. What gives? And which Duggar will make the next move? You can count on us to keep watch—and offer some hot takes.

Then, a tiny archipelago off East Africa is connected to a huge New York home with a storied past. We get the details—and a geography lesson—from Erik.

Decor trends come and go, so is anything truly timeless? Our experts say there are 10 pieces of furniture that you can rock in any era. We weigh in with our thoughts—do you agree?

And, as always, we’ve got the week’s real estate winners and losers. Our winner really stands out in the crowd, while our loser’s home-selling woes are on display. (Sidebar: You really don’t want to miss Erik’s musical performance.)
