  • What We’re Not Supposed To Say About The MAFS Pregnancy Scandal
    Feb 19 2026

    Netflix has just unveiled its 2026 lineup, and everyone is talking about Stranger Things: Tales from '85. Laura reveals why the original cast isn't returning to voice their characters and whether it can actually capture the magic of the original world. Plus get a sneak peek on what you’ll soon be bingeing, from a new Heartbreak High to a Willy Wonka reality series.

    Then, we dive deep into the MAFS dinner party from hell. After a week of forced intimacy, the cracks are wider than ever. We discuss the cringey "Love Actually" moment that went wrong for Rachel and Steven, and why Steve (the silver fox) has officially become the most hated man on the show after his condescending treatment of Rebecca.

    Plus, a massive bomb has dropped in the Married at First Sight world, with bride Brook officially confirming her pregnancy and engagement to her ex while she’s still appearing on our screens in the experiment. We unpack the messy timeline, whether she was "fake" the whole time, and Tina Provis shares her own behind-the-scenes secrets from life after Love Island (including how long you actually have to hide from the paparazzi after winning a show).

  • A Brutally Honest Review Of The America's Next Top Model Documentary
    Feb 18 2026

    Reality Check: Inside America's Next Top Model documentary has premiered on Netflix, giving us an unprecedented (and sometimes brutal) insight into the making of one of the world’s most infamous reality TV shows.

    Now we need to unpack the most shocking moments from the documentary, discuss what the fallout from the series has been, and talk about how our viewing habits played a part in this series becoming so wildly popular.

    And of course, there is the Tyra Banks of it all. In this episode, we discuss how her hand was forced when it comes to appearing in this documentary and how it has damaged her legacy forever.

    Content warning: This episode contains details of sexual assault.
    If you or anyone you know needs expert help, please contact 1800 RESPECT (1800 737 732) the National Sexual Assault, Domestic and Family Violence Counselling Service. If you are in immediate danger, call 000.
