Speaker 1: I want the fairy tale. I want the prince charming.
Speaker 2: She how do I put this? Isn't a fan of
Speaker 2: my kissing style with.
Speaker 1: The boyfriend and girlfriend for about twelve hours. He's in
Speaker 1: a trash bin. He's non recyclable catching them mu.
Speaker 2: I love being love. I love love.
Speaker 3: On today's episode of Where's Your Head At, we are
Speaker 3: sitting down with Marette and Tanya, the mother and daughter
Speaker 3: duo from Australia's newest reality TV show, My Mum Your Dad.
Speaker 2: We'll be asking them some questions about their time on
Speaker 2: the show and who they think will end up together.
Speaker 3: We also want to uncover how Tanya really feels about
Speaker 3: watching her mum date again. Stick around to hear all
Speaker 3: the goths. Where's Your Head At is a podcast that
Speaker 3: talks all things relationships, breakups, reality TV, trending shows, and
Speaker 3: everything in between.
Speaker 2: This is your new go to destination for laughs, gossip,
Speaker 2: intimate details, advice and much more.
Speaker 1: Hello, ladies, how are you hi?
Speaker 2: Good? Welcome to Where's Your head app? Podcast? So good
Speaker 2: to have you here.
Speaker 1: You both look lovely?
Speaker 4: Thank you so do you too, especially Matt.
Speaker 2: Sorry yeah I'm saying before how good I look? You
Speaker 2: guys are great as well. So you guys have obviously
Speaker 2: been on the show, My Mum, your dad, I'd just
Speaker 2: like to say sorry in advance. I've been in the
Speaker 2: UK for the last four weeks, so i haven't had
Speaker 2: a chance to watch any of it, so I've seen
Speaker 2: bits on Instagram and all that. So for the listeners
Speaker 2: as well that haven't caught the show, do you want
Speaker 2: to tell us a little bit about it?
Speaker 4: So the show is essentially so the kids, So like me,
Speaker 4: I'll nominate my mom in a chance of her hopefully
Speaker 4: finding love.
Speaker 5: Yeah, we get sent off.
Speaker 4: To like separate kind of like retreats which are like
Speaker 4: big houses, and Mum is there obviously to date and
Speaker 4: see if you can find a connection. I'm in the
Speaker 4: other house with kind of like their kids, and we're
Speaker 4: actually all watching our parents on like millions of TVs,
Speaker 4: so like surveillance. It's it's quite funny, it's a bit daunting.
Speaker 4: And yeah, so we're just like little spies basically just
Speaker 4: watching every move, which I love because I love telling her.
Speaker 5: What to do.
Speaker 2: So do you tell her, do you tell her who
Speaker 2: to go for in that or do you just let her?
Speaker 5: So we don't have any contact with them. We don't
Speaker 5: know that they're watching.
Speaker 6: So the kids like have to win challenges to send
Speaker 6: the parents on dates, so I didn't get to go
Speaker 6: on any day.
Speaker 3: I didn't win any challenges, so that hasn't seen it.
Speaker 3: But me, on the other hand, I am a huge
Speaker 3: fan of this show. I mean even from the ads,
Speaker 3: I was like, this is a great concept, Like, think
Speaker 3: about all of the parents out there who we could
Speaker 3: match up, and like, I want to see it all unfold.
Speaker 3: And then when I watched the first episode and I
Speaker 3: realized that the kids that were actually like watching, I
Speaker 3: was like, oh my god, imagine watching your parents and
Speaker 3: getting to see that whole different side of them.
Speaker 1: How was that?
Speaker 4: I feel like I've seen not like everything, but I
Speaker 4: am really close with mum, so it wasn't very confronting
Speaker 4: for me. But some of the other kids that I
Speaker 4: was with, they like literally like had no idea what
Speaker 4: their parents was like, maybe in the dating scene or
Speaker 4: how they even spoke about like a man or a
Speaker 4: lady or whatever. So for them it was like a
Speaker 4: very confronting.
Speaker 5: But one guy found out his dad was married and he.
Speaker 2: Didn't know and he was on the show.
Speaker 6: Yeah, also he was married before he had him. He
Speaker 6: didn't know that he married.
Speaker 2: Okay, I thought he was married while he was on
Speaker 2: the show.
Speaker 6: Probably should know that.
Speaker 2: How did you find out about the casting for the show?
Speaker 4: Then? So last year I was supposed to be the
Speaker 4: love I'm a bombshell. W Yeah, pretty pretty weird. That
Speaker 4: would yeah, it would have been season three. And then
Speaker 4: I went out, you know, spent like a thousand dollars
Speaker 4: on bikinis. I was super excited, like, yeah.
Speaker 6: Yeah, we just go and they kept saying, tweet, the
Speaker 6: contracts coming, the contracts coming.
Speaker 4: And then I was just thinking, you know, it's very odd,
Speaker 4: like I run like three businesses, so I need to
Speaker 4: know kind of in advance, like what's happening kind of
Speaker 4: dates and things like that. And then they just wouldn't
Speaker 4: send the contract throat and then it was kind of
Speaker 4: old just because I didn't feel comfortable to get the
Speaker 4: COVID vats. And at the time it was a little
Speaker 4: bit like here and miss, can you put it in
Speaker 4: a contract get A lot of businesses were saying like, yeah,
Speaker 4: it was early days. It was kind of early days.
Speaker 4: So anyway that didn't happen. I was obviously devastated and anyway,
Speaker 4: and then this year I wanted the producers emailed me
Speaker 4: and said, we've got this new show blah blah blah.
Speaker 4: She knew Mum and I were really close, and then
Speaker 4: she goes, are you interested? And then I just said yeah.
Speaker 4: And then next thing you know, we're on a zoom
Speaker 4: call and then we're filming. So it was just crazy
Speaker 4: it happened.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 3: Wow, you know what, I wouldn't be surprised if we
Speaker 3: see your face on Love Island next year. You know,
Speaker 3: Al from Maths is on it this year. I feel
Speaker 3: like you're going to be the next reality TV person
Speaker 3: to hit Love Island.
Speaker 1: And then you can use all your bikinis up.
Speaker 3: Thank god.
Speaker 2: So you didn't get to use them at all on
Speaker 2: my Mum, your dad. You didn't. You didn't just whip
Speaker 2: it out and walk into the bunker with it on.
Speaker 4: I was just wearing them all the time. You're taking bikinis.
Speaker 2: This isn't.
Speaker 4: I got to wear them once in the hot tub.
Speaker 4: I didn't want to go in the hot tub. It
Speaker 4: was kind of cold when we were filming, and the
Speaker 4: hot tub it wasn't really that hot. But I just said,
Speaker 4: give me a bottle of prosecco and I'll go in
Speaker 4: there and then and we were in there, but they
Speaker 4: didn't they didn't error. So everyone, all of my friends
Speaker 4: were like, did you get to use you bikinis? Yes,
Speaker 4: stay tuned, stay tuned, And then it never came on.
Speaker 2: And I've done a lot worse for a bottle of prosecco,
Speaker 2: icon a lot less.
Speaker 1: So, Tanya, why did you want to nominate your mom?
Speaker 1: What made you like?
Speaker 3: You know, obviously the producers have reached out to you,
Speaker 3: But tell me what the thought process behind that was.
Speaker 4: So with mum, so like we literally obviously you would
Speaker 4: have sayen like I intro how she says on Friday nights,
Speaker 4: we literally go through dating apps whatever.
Speaker 5: We're not on the same I'm online and she's on her.
Speaker 4: Honestly, we laugh a lot and just like what Usually
Speaker 4: she will find a guy in there she likes, and
Speaker 4: I can literally just glad for him and I'm like
Speaker 4: to him, and then she would choose the guy and
Speaker 4: she'll talk to him and I just would be like, no,
Speaker 4: it's not in a way something about him would just
Speaker 4: throw me off. And then I'm always right in the way,
Speaker 4: it's always right. So then I was kind of like,
Speaker 4: this is perfect because if she goes on this show,
Speaker 4: I can't literally see the man. They don't know I'm watching,
Speaker 4: so it's just unfiltered and I can basically just choose
Speaker 4: one out for my mom, and I think it's going
Speaker 4: to be great. But sadly they didn't really put anyone
Speaker 4: in for Mom, so it was a bit hard. And
Speaker 4: then Anna, you would have seen the scene with the
Speaker 4: man spoke quite badly about Mom. And then there was
Speaker 4: another lady on there who was actually going around really
Speaker 4: bad mouthing my mom, and I saw.
Speaker 5: All of it.
Speaker 1: Who was it?
Speaker 5: I was crying so much on day one.
Speaker 6: I was bawling my eyes that she was so mean
Speaker 6: to me.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was really tough.
Speaker 6: And I said in my interview room and I said,
Speaker 6: you know what, she's judging me on my appearance, and
Speaker 6: by the end of it she'll love me. And by
Speaker 6: the end of it she does love me. But now
Speaker 6: that I know that, all awful things she said be hummaback.
Speaker 5: I just can't be bothered.
Speaker 7: I'm not.
Speaker 5: I just I just can't be bothered.
Speaker 6: I'm lost too sure, like you either are who you
Speaker 6: are to me and love me or just I don't know.
Speaker 5: I just she was just meaning to me, but to
Speaker 5: go around, and Tony got to see her actually go
Speaker 5: to each parent and pick on me.
Speaker 4: Probably one of the first like kind of scenes we
Speaker 4: saw of all the parents. It was actually this lady
Speaker 4: going around bad mouth and Mum, and they kept showing
Speaker 4: my mom kind of she could see her crying and
Speaker 4: she was kind of a bit reserved, and I could
Speaker 4: see her crying, and I saw her bread and I
Speaker 4: was like the first thing that I've seen of her
Speaker 4: is her crying, and I just I just wanted to
Speaker 4: like escape and go and find her. I felt so bad.
Speaker 1: Oh my god.
Speaker 5: Anyway, I ended up having a really good time and
Speaker 5: got on with everyone really great and love mail. We're
Speaker 5: really close. But it was just a little bit.
Speaker 6: I didn't realize the men were saying such awful things
Speaker 6: hummabat and then none of them have said sorry, which
Speaker 6: I've find it, you know, Like Darren was crying when
Speaker 6: I left, and then he's he's actually going on and
Speaker 6: jumping on the hate and stuff.
Speaker 4: It's like, now, yeah, it's finding hate, so like people
Speaker 4: like comment on Mum's videos and like leave hate comments,
Speaker 4: and he's actually going on those hate comments and replying
Speaker 4: to them and it's just of her videos.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and you know what the amazing thing is, right, Yeah,
Speaker 5: a big deal. I have my lips down and I
Speaker 5: have both.
Speaker 6: I have been honestly bullied my whole life for my
Speaker 6: face shaped, my chin.
Speaker 5: I don't want to.
Speaker 6: Like my Yeah, it's just been a really hard thing.
Speaker 6: So it's like, these are my cheekbones, and this is
Speaker 6: my chin, and this is my nose, these are my boots.
Speaker 6: My biology of had is Swedish.
Speaker 5: That's just been a thing that I've been picked up
Speaker 5: my whole life.
Speaker 1: I'm so.
Speaker 5: And everyone says it's plastic. No one says I've had
Speaker 5: all this plastics.
Speaker 4: Like just a lot of it was very like manipulated.
Speaker 4: Like in one of the challenges, one of the like
Speaker 4: cards that the host bred out was to do like
Speaker 4: someone's parents has had botox or plastic surgery and just
Speaker 4: whatever the question was, And I had to drop the
Speaker 4: word plastic surgery in there, and I just knew it
Speaker 4: was a dig at my mum. But I think it's
Speaker 4: funny because when you actually go on the show, you
Speaker 4: have to fill out a form saying you know you
Speaker 4: would know you've got to fill out so many contracts
Speaker 4: saying if you've had work done, have you heard surgery,
Speaker 4: had you had this? No, they should like she has
Speaker 4: had no work done and she's born like this and
Speaker 4: people literally pay to get her look, her draw and
Speaker 4: her cheek.
Speaker 3: I was about to say, you are stunning and like
Speaker 3: you should not be judged for your appearance. I mean,
Speaker 3: you are absolutely gorgeous. And the fact that you've received
Speaker 3: so much hate and bullying it's just bizarre.
Speaker 6: And aren't we in this time it's all about empowering women?
Speaker 6: And oh my god, I'm already on a show where
Speaker 6: I'm being vulnerable and it's just been weird. It's just
Speaker 6: been And I did really expect the men heat reached
Speaker 6: out and was just more.
Speaker 5: Like, how you going and how would you not?
Speaker 2: Oh my god, we.
Speaker 6: Said these things about you. I'm really sorry. You got
Speaker 6: to see that none of them have.
Speaker 5: And yeah, Heith was literally chasing me the whole show.
Speaker 5: There was so much that wasn't shown. Yeah, I didn't
Speaker 5: even even know the guy was into me because I
Speaker 5: just was friend zoned him. They wen't.
Speaker 3: So do you think anyway it made you kind of
Speaker 3: close off because you received kind of like so much
Speaker 3: bullying from Was it mel who was talking badly?
Speaker 5: No? No, no, God, no, she was Darling who.
Speaker 1: Was the one who was talking badly.
Speaker 6: I feel bad saying it, but I mean anyway, she
Speaker 6: knows she did it. So was Christie Christy.
Speaker 1: That's so sad.
Speaker 5: Yeah, it was really tough.
Speaker 2: Was that one of your reservations for going on the
Speaker 2: show that you thought you were going to cop that
Speaker 2: sort of like bullying?
Speaker 6: Well, no, because I don't feelter what I say and
Speaker 6: I'm just very open and honest with everything. So I
Speaker 6: was concerned about the edit, Like I was thinking I
Speaker 6: was going to say something and they were going to
Speaker 6: show that in a you know how they edit it
Speaker 6: and chop it up the change, and they did.
Speaker 5: They made me.
Speaker 6: They would say things, put my words together, but not
Speaker 6: show my face, just show me.
Speaker 4: Put the audio over.
Speaker 6: And I've been sitting there and so they were saying
Speaker 6: things like Roe is totally my type.
Speaker 5: I never said that. There's just lots of things, but
Speaker 5: that was all right. I don't care. That's all part
Speaker 5: of it. I'm happy with that that they didn't. They
Speaker 5: didn't show my real personality. The only time they really
Speaker 5: showed me being fun retty and having a good time.
Speaker 5: Was when I was running so and.
Speaker 8: Getting everyone involved, like yeah, yeah, that was the only
Speaker 8: time really otherwise they just because they didn't look up
Speaker 8: with anyone.
Speaker 5: They weren't really that you know.
Speaker 6: They wanted me. They just pressured me all the time.
Speaker 6: Put yourself about that, put yourself out there. And how
Speaker 6: funny on day one when Kate goes, you know, choose
Speaker 6: a date. Right before she'd said that, Tanya had said
Speaker 6: to me, this is day one. She said, mom, don't
Speaker 6: get bullied and you stand your ground and like really
Speaker 6: stand up with something. And I was like, yep, yep, okay.
Speaker 6: So then Kate there's this big speech about right, we're
Speaker 6: all here, but you don't have to feel pressure to
Speaker 6: choose the date Day one. Ladies, if you haven't felt
Speaker 6: a connection, you say you haven't felt connections for them.
Speaker 4: I've watched it as of all the kids, because it's
Speaker 4: all live, so we're watching Kate say this.
Speaker 6: Yeah, and then it comes to me to choose the day,
Speaker 6: and I said, oh, sorry, okay, And I'm that proud
Speaker 6: of myself going good on you for standing up because
Speaker 6: normally I just go yeah, And I was like, no,
Speaker 6: I haven't really found a connection yet. Wow, did she
Speaker 6: rip my head off. She was like, we're not here
Speaker 6: for She goes in her here you know, to production.
Speaker 6: She's like, we're not here for because at the time
Speaker 6: when we were filming, it was called grown up love,
Speaker 6: so they changed it animals. We're not here for growing
Speaker 6: up friends. We're here for growing up love. You need
Speaker 6: to put yourself out there, and they.
Speaker 5: Go on.
Speaker 4: And then and then I go back into my diary,
Speaker 4: range get into the interview room and I'm saying like,
Speaker 4: I'm so proud of her.
Speaker 5: And I was saying.
Speaker 4: I'm so proud, and then they then what actually airs
Speaker 4: to TV is me saying how I'm disappointed in her.
Speaker 5: Yeah.
Speaker 9: Yeah, No, I did not say that.
Speaker 4: I probably said it at one one point in time,
Speaker 4: obviously because they put it in, but it wasn't for
Speaker 4: that moment, and it just upset me because it almost
Speaker 4: made it look.
Speaker 5: Like you were supporting me.
Speaker 4: He wasn't supporting her. I literally gave her that advice
Speaker 4: and like beating it into her, saying, stand up for yourself.
Speaker 9: Yeah right, Okay, As Captain Jason, have you watched the
Speaker 9: show below Deck down Under? Not yet, but it is
Speaker 9: this Captain Jason is like my absolute I just adore him.
Speaker 5: He's kind of, he's caring, he's kind I mean, oh, PV.
Speaker 5: You know, I didn't know the guy.
Speaker 6: But anyway, anyway, so I kept when I was running
Speaker 6: one morning and like, Dan, you want to produce three?
Speaker 6: And she's like, oh, you know you're on leaving. This
Speaker 6: is what's happening. And I was like, did you get
Speaker 6: Captain Jason? Because I literally have talked about him in
Speaker 6: every zoom we had, in every phone calls.
Speaker 5: He's just so nice. And then anyway, so she goes, oh,
Speaker 5: you have to wait.
Speaker 6: See, So I honestly thought because that airs on nine,
Speaker 6: I just.
Speaker 5: Thought it was I don't know, I just thought the
Speaker 5: way they kind of twisted it. So I kept waiting.
Speaker 5: I was really excited thinking he was coming.
Speaker 6: No, he didn't come in, but anyway, one of my
Speaker 6: friends tagged him in a photo and now he.
Speaker 5: Follows me on Instagram. So that's like the most It
Speaker 5: was like I won the lotto. I was like, oh my.
Speaker 1: God, that's amazing. So have you guys been talking on
Speaker 1: the d MS?
Speaker 5: No? No, I would never do that. Is it a
Speaker 5: bit of a stand up?
Speaker 2: Are you liking each other's photos, flirting.
Speaker 4: Has he liked I think he's liked some of your photos.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and then he just views my stories and I'm like,
Speaker 5: why isn't he coming story?
Speaker 2: You're going to have to make a move.
Speaker 5: I reckon and I love one of the producers. It's
Speaker 5: on your seat. I told you the show would get
Speaker 5: your mom together, kept him together. So now I need
Speaker 5: to go on Below Deck.
Speaker 1: I need to put it on my list.
Speaker 3: One of my very good friends, she is obsessed with
Speaker 3: Below Deck and she's like, you will love it, but
Speaker 3: I just haven't had a chance.
Speaker 6: Yeah, I was real as my friend Joe made me
Speaker 6: watch it and I'm obsessed.
Speaker 4: And then mom kept telling me watch it and whatever.
Speaker 4: It's just like people and like yach so I don't care.
Speaker 6: And then she's like texting me from my bedroom, Oh
Speaker 6: my god, mom, Captain Jason's dreaming.
Speaker 5: Oh my god, Mom, he's perfect. I'm like, yes, I know.
Speaker 3: You both have a crush on Captain Jason. Does this
Speaker 3: mean you have a similar type.
Speaker 5: No, it's dead. She's crushing on him for me.
Speaker 4: We actually don't have We actually don't have the same time.
Speaker 4: I don't That's why she chooses a guy and then
Speaker 4: when I say him, I saying no because she just
Speaker 4: chooses just dickheads.
Speaker 2: What's your type then, what's your type?
Speaker 4: Well, mine's just like I don't know, like toll dark, handsome.
Speaker 5: Like she goes for giants and she's like five foot yeah,
Speaker 5: like the toll of the bed.
Speaker 4: I just want to like crawl up you climb up.
Speaker 2: Like a koala and just like love me.
Speaker 3: So you're both still single. Any situationships happening at the moment,
Speaker 3: not me.
Speaker 4: Kind of me, But I don't know. It's kind of
Speaker 4: always just.
Speaker 1: Like this, Okay.
Speaker 3: Any interesting people that slid into your DM since the show? No, okay,
Speaker 3: I reckon. It's always harder for girls. I reckon, like
Speaker 3: guys get all the DM slides and with girls.
Speaker 4: Like girls are very I feel like nowadays girls are
Speaker 4: very out there, like they're just they're ruthless. I feel
Speaker 4: like they're they're like worse than guys. Really, like guys
Speaker 4: maybe are a bit more scared from.
Speaker 2: My mate drop like reactions and like.
Speaker 1: Flame emojis are the one.
Speaker 4: I've been getting all of that, but not like I've
Speaker 4: been in some messages, but like, no one that's like
Speaker 4: famous yeah, okay, Like obviously, like my phone is like
Speaker 4: going crazy, but I'm like, no.
Speaker 2: No, you're waiting to go in the villa next year.
Speaker 1: She's waiting for a while. It seems to remain single.
Speaker 1: I see what you're doing.
Speaker 3: What was I going to say, so, Maury, you've spoken
Speaker 3: a little bit about how you've been receiving a little
Speaker 3: bit of bullying post show.
Speaker 1: Can you take us through that a little bit more?
Speaker 6: Well, it was just more things like so on the
Speaker 6: show's TikTok, wasn't it? They did a TikTok and it
Speaker 6: was just one of the videos of us Too is
Speaker 6: all love. So if someone starts with love comments, it
Speaker 6: seems to just flow with oh my god, I love
Speaker 6: you too, you two a great together, blah. But if
Speaker 6: someone comes in with a mean comment, it's just there's
Speaker 6: just that's it.
Speaker 5: They just go nuts. But I mean it boosts my algram.
Speaker 6: I've got one of the highest TikTok views on all
Speaker 6: of their things. If I'm on them, I'm getting the
Speaker 6: most view. So I'm like, well, hey, then's.
Speaker 5: You're doing it for me?
Speaker 2: So that's it.
Speaker 5: But it was I think I was okay with it.
Speaker 6: But Tonya was getting really upset, and it would upset
Speaker 6: me that she's.
Speaker 5: So defensive, so.
Speaker 1: I'm the same.
Speaker 5: Yeah, And so then.
Speaker 6: I just reached out to the show and I was like,
Speaker 6: you know, you guys said that you're going to monitor this,
Speaker 6: and you haven't monitored at all.
Speaker 5: Oh we've got algorithm set up and all bots or whatever.
Speaker 6: And I was like, Okay, well you need to like
Speaker 6: sort it out because it's just not right. And it
Speaker 6: was all just comments like plastic fantastic, she's had so
Speaker 6: many fellers, her face looks distorted.
Speaker 5: Because she's had so much work. I just crap like that, you.
Speaker 1: Know, awful.
Speaker 4: Apparently apparently on Twitter, you got really out of hand,
Speaker 4: but I don't have.
Speaker 5: Twitter, and I didn't want to say.
Speaker 4: And someone was sending me screen like one of my
Speaker 4: friends was sending me screenshots, and I was like, honestly,
Speaker 4: it's already out there, but I haven't seen it for
Speaker 4: myself and I'm not going out of my way to
Speaker 4: search for hate. Please just don't send it to me
Speaker 4: because I really just don't want to see it. And
Speaker 4: I mean some of the stuff was disgusting, but I
Speaker 4: honestly was like, my mum, your dad, she just closed
Speaker 4: that Twitter like it was so bad.
Speaker 1: Can you share with us some of the stuff.
Speaker 5: It was really bad.
Speaker 4: It was really bad. I don't have it on my
Speaker 4: phone anymore, but I'm sure I would still be on there,
Speaker 4: just like calling you awful names, not like on TikTok oh.
Speaker 4: Really it was just so horrible. They sent me like
Speaker 4: five screen shops.
Speaker 3: I honestly, Mara, I don't know why you're getting all
Speaker 3: this hate. You are absolutely gorgeous. I feel like people
Speaker 3: are jealous of you. It's so sad to see.
Speaker 7: Like insecurity, I had one of the because we've got
Speaker 7: on so great with all that crew and like all
Speaker 7: the makeup and hair people and everything, and I had
Speaker 7: one of the one of the crew ring me and
Speaker 7: just so I've never done this and the law to
Speaker 7: do this, but you are just amazing.
Speaker 5: I love you so much. And don't listen to them.
Speaker 6: She goes, there's actually people that just see in their
Speaker 6: rooms and they go from show to show and really
Speaker 6: just cut people. And she goes, and mad people that
Speaker 6: are one hundred and fifteen killers of the thousand cats
Speaker 6: and nothing else better to do than be mean to strangers.
Speaker 6: And I think that was a little bit I knew
Speaker 6: there was going to be hate. I did know that,
Speaker 6: so I'm not stupid. People do love to hate.
Speaker 5: But I just thought we were in a little bit more.
Speaker 5: I just thought our society was a.
Speaker 6: Little bit more forward thinking, you know, like and especially now,
Speaker 6: every single young girl boobs, lips, nose, teeth, everything's done face. Yeah,
Speaker 6: and I'm kind of I am actually proud of the
Speaker 6: way I looked at from.
Speaker 1: My age well.
Speaker 5: Way Chyna, mikecre needles, a ship out of my skins.
Speaker 6: That keeps my college in nice, like, you know, I
Speaker 6: think it's just yeah, I was.
Speaker 5: I was. It was a little bit bad. So I
Speaker 5: said to chair.
Speaker 6: I just reached out to channel and I just said,
Speaker 6: can you take like the hate down? They ended up
Speaker 6: taking all the comments.
Speaker 5: Off two with the tiktoks. Yeah, I have.
Speaker 4: The only thing that I found funny about it was
Speaker 4: like she was really only ever getting hate on how
Speaker 4: she looked. No one could pick on anything else. Like,
Speaker 4: I know that they didn't air a lot of her
Speaker 4: because she wasn't getting with anyone, and it's not really
Speaker 4: good TV. And that's the point of the show. Now
Speaker 4: we understand that. But she is smart, she's great, like
Speaker 4: she's she's really funny, she's witty, and it's like they
Speaker 4: couldn't pick on anything. They could only pick on her appearance.
Speaker 4: And I mean, like she didn't go on there and
Speaker 4: like trash talk, didn't she didn't like yeah, dress horribly
Speaker 4: like she was just she kept it classy. There was
Speaker 4: some other parents on there that they said some awful
Speaker 4: things and like maybe things that like when I was
Speaker 4: even watching myself, I was like, I would honestly die.
Speaker 4: I would just want to like slap my mom if
Speaker 4: she said that. Like I was just like and.
Speaker 5: Not one comment.
Speaker 4: Facts also being aired on TV, so you know at
Speaker 4: the end of the day that your whole family's going
Speaker 4: to see that.
Speaker 5: Yeah, and they didn't get in comments.
Speaker 4: There and they got and they received no hate.
Speaker 3: What were some of the worst comments, in your opinion
Speaker 3: that some of the other parents said.
Speaker 4: Just like for instance, Roe was saying how he can't
Speaker 4: touch like a female without wanting to have steck to
Speaker 4: them and like he will expect sex.
Speaker 5: Was great, that's how did you watch me?
Speaker 6: But I asked him about the bath when I said
Speaker 6: to him, so you run a bath expecting sex because
Speaker 6: he had just said that.
Speaker 5: So he said he literally can't walk through.
Speaker 6: And I said, wait, wait, were wit so in the morning,
Speaker 6: you're walking through You're going to say goodbye to your
Speaker 6: partner in the kitchen, not to our sex. And I
Speaker 6: was like, what, Yeah, he has driving the car. You
Speaker 6: can't touch his knee sex. He was telling me saying, yeah, yeah,
Speaker 6: he's telling the kids, and were telling the kids saying
Speaker 6: on TV and the kids watched that he paid it.
Speaker 4: Yes, so he paid. He went out. He was like
Speaker 4: in like la or something. He told his son, I'm
Speaker 4: going on a work trip, but he wasn't. He was
Speaker 4: over there partying, picked up a young girl at the club,
Speaker 4: brought her back to the apartment, pay the door guy
Speaker 4: one hundred dollars, and let the door man let them
Speaker 4: have sex in their elevator. We watched all of that
Speaker 4: and I was just not one hate comment, No one
Speaker 4: hate comment. I don't know if they aired that. I
Speaker 4: was so sick to my stomach. His son was so embarrassed,
Speaker 4: and I was thinking, Okay, so his dad knows this
Speaker 4: is going to be aired on TV, does not care?
Speaker 4: And is he really there to find a connection if
Speaker 4: he's talking like that, No, he's not. When my mom
Speaker 4: really really wants and deserves a partner, and so it
Speaker 4: was upsetting me too because I was like, they're putting
Speaker 4: these parents in that really just haven't They don't care,
Speaker 4: and they're there to just kind of written book kind
Speaker 4: of thing.
Speaker 5: I know it sounds that, but it's true.
Speaker 4: And I'm watching it. Who was my mom in there with?
Speaker 5: Because she does not like that?
Speaker 6: And when I left, they didn't show really much of
Speaker 6: us leaving because it was actually we would do it.
Speaker 5: It was so traumatic. We were crying a lot.
Speaker 6: And then Chloe got in the car one of the
Speaker 6: produced and she was like, I think you think end
Speaker 6: anyone in for me?
Speaker 5: And because we did, and I said home, she goes
Speaker 5: Darren and Rowe.
Speaker 4: And I was like, well, Darren used to go to
Speaker 4: swinger's parties.
Speaker 6: And he just was telling me Dad's twenty three year
Speaker 6: olds in Mexicola in Bali and I was like, so
Speaker 6: you sent me in a player and a sex addict.
Speaker 5: No, that's not at all what I wanted. And then
Speaker 5: they were kind of getting mad at me for not
Speaker 5: putting myself out there, and I was like, oh my god,
Speaker 5: where's Captain Jason dating?
Speaker 1: In twenty twenty two? Is so hard, right, And.
Speaker 5: We both go through the same sort of experiences.
Speaker 6: Really, because my generation are they've been married, they're now single,
Speaker 6: and they go back to playing. They just they don't
Speaker 6: they've had all the commitment and they want to just
Speaker 6: party and play.
Speaker 5: And then her generation are the same.
Speaker 4: They kind of don't want to grow up. They just
Speaker 4: want to party and just that's it.
Speaker 1: And I'm like, come on, where's the reading.
Speaker 2: How are you think?
Speaker 4: Yeah, I'm twenty five in January.
Speaker 5: Okay, okay yourself.
Speaker 3: Look, it's it's really tricky, and I mean that's the
Speaker 3: reason why we started this podcast, because we were both
Speaker 3: having a really tough time dating and we were like,
Speaker 3: we need to talk about.
Speaker 1: This because we have some wild stories.
Speaker 3: And I mean, like we even just started like a
Speaker 3: hotline episode where people have been voice noting us in
Speaker 3: and telling us their stories, and we can't believe it.
Speaker 1: We can't believe some of the stuff we're hearing. We're like, what.
Speaker 6: I'd stay in all the time. I can't even be
Speaker 6: bothered going out. I just can't honestly be bothered.
Speaker 5: So what's the point.
Speaker 6: My best friend's gay, so when I hang out with
Speaker 6: him and his husband, it's like, well, I'm not going
Speaker 6: to get any action there.
Speaker 2: Well, you said you go on and if you said
Speaker 2: you go on dating apps, do you like go on
Speaker 2: dates with anyone from the dating apps? So are you're
Speaker 2: just on there swiping?
Speaker 6: I went on one date last year and I went
Speaker 6: I've been on two dates this year so far. But
Speaker 6: they're just never so what I find they do and
Speaker 6: show you might have seen it actually happened.
Speaker 5: People change themselves.
Speaker 6: So I'll say I don't like this or I love
Speaker 6: that or whatever, and they say that that's what they
Speaker 6: want to do, so then I'll go and meet them.
Speaker 5: And then I go and meet them. I'm like, you're
Speaker 5: nothing like.
Speaker 6: You said you were that even on the show. Christy
Speaker 6: Heath actually is really, really really into NRL. And on
Speaker 6: the first day we have this iPad in the room
Speaker 6: and it tells us how messages and stuff. He was
Speaker 6: trying to break into the iPad and I thought, oh,
Speaker 6: how cute. He's trying to get us some music, you know,
Speaker 6: ALLOWD music. No, he was trying to break introe iPad
Speaker 6: to get the NRL scorce. So that would do day
Speaker 6: one right, which is fine and I'm not bagging it.
Speaker 6: But Day one in a new place with all new people.
Speaker 6: Just I just thought, what a weird thing for your brain,
Speaker 6: Like you're really into NRL. So then in one say,
Speaker 6: which is fine, and I'm not. I'm not picking on
Speaker 6: him like I just I'm not at all picking on him.
Speaker 5: It's just not for me.
Speaker 6: He talks NROL, he lives en er or he breathes,
Speaker 6: and which is fine, but not for me. That's I
Speaker 6: don't want to be with someone that's going, oh, we're
Speaker 6: going to the footage that oh, where he's on a
Speaker 6: holiday as he would be trying to find the NRL scortes.
Speaker 4: I don't know.
Speaker 5: It's just cool, but not for me. The show, and
Speaker 5: in the show, Christy actually says, if you want to
Speaker 5: go with ready, don't just don't talk about n L.
Speaker 5: She hates it. I don't hate it. I don't know
Speaker 5: anything about it. Yeah, and I don't hate it. And
Speaker 5: she didn't tell me she did that, And that's exactly. So.
Speaker 5: Then one day over the big brother of man said.
Speaker 6: By the way, hates your team lost or something, and
Speaker 6: I said, oh, we're just sitting on the couch and
Speaker 6: I said, oh, you're really into NRL, aren't you, And
Speaker 6: he goes, no, and I went, I know, you just
Speaker 6: break into the ipay.
Speaker 5: I know it's what we're watching it.
Speaker 4: So we've seen him the conversation with Christy.
Speaker 5: Then we've seen him and I didn't know that.
Speaker 4: We're all just like and I haven't said I don't
Speaker 4: like that.
Speaker 5: I don't like how he's changed himself to be what
Speaker 5: I want.
Speaker 4: It's hard to because you're with the kids and like
Speaker 4: his son's sitting in the room. So then I'm like,
Speaker 4: I just say it how it is. But then I
Speaker 4: don't want to hurt anyone's feelings too, so you do
Speaker 4: have to close your mouth a little bit. But at
Speaker 4: the same time, I'm like, is anyone else seeing it's like?
Speaker 6: And then he goes I said to him, so you
Speaker 6: I thought you're really into it and around and he goes, oh, well,
Speaker 6: I kind of have a chainment stuff, you know, but
Speaker 6: it's just more for something to just do.
Speaker 4: I think he coaches it.
Speaker 5: Coaches it, definitely, but that's what I'm saying. So they
Speaker 5: change themselves. Then when I go and meet them, they're
Speaker 5: just really nothing.
Speaker 4: Like, Yeah, it is like the texting and the phone
Speaker 4: calls and face timing, and I just say Mom, you
Speaker 4: need to just hurry up and meet them, because that's
Speaker 4: how you're really gonna know. Yea, she gets just sared,
Speaker 4: and then two weeks later she's still obsessively messaging and
Speaker 4: I'm just go and meet the guy, and then she
Speaker 4: makes them and then it's just like heartbreak.
Speaker 6: I used to get like really worked up, so Tom
Speaker 6: will drive me like drop me off and stuff, and
Speaker 6: I just get really worked out because I was.
Speaker 5: So excited and think, oh my god, we get on
Speaker 5: so great. And then I just just like, oh no,
Speaker 5: I just go. I we'll just get it out the way.
Speaker 5: We'll just see how they actually really are.
Speaker 3: To be honest, that's the hard thing about well, as
Speaker 3: we all put our best foot forward and we all
Speaker 3: like try and like make someone like us, and then
Speaker 3: like after a couple of dates, you start seeing the
Speaker 3: real person. And I guess in this yeah, and in
Speaker 3: this environment, you're living with these people, so you're getting
Speaker 3: to really see their true colors pretty quickly as well.
Speaker 6: Yeah, yeah, and then they you're only going to see
Speaker 6: what you know, I suppose the narrative that the producers
Speaker 6: want you to see, do you know.
Speaker 4: What I mean?
Speaker 6: So they didn't show me being fun and like laying
Speaker 6: on mail and chatting with everyone and Hate having a
Speaker 6: meltdown and me making him not leave the show, Christie
Speaker 6: having a meltdown and me make her not lead the show.
Speaker 5: Like they didn't show me building all.
Speaker 6: The relationships that I really did make with everyone, and
Speaker 6: then they didn't show me at home crying when I
Speaker 6: saw it on TV.
Speaker 5: I mean, they were yeah, that's all right, it's all right.
Speaker 5: Tanya had told me. Anyway, she was like, as soon
Speaker 5: as we saw each other, she was like, Mum, they
Speaker 5: were just so mean to you. Yeah, but anyway, and.
Speaker 6: It was funny because one of the dads wasn't in
Speaker 6: the conversation. Daughters literally had every single thing done.
Speaker 5: So yeah, he wasn't in that conversation being mean to me.
Speaker 2: Yeah.
Speaker 5: Well, anyway, Look.
Speaker 3: We've spoken briefly on that moment, Tanya where you actually
Speaker 3: walked out of the game because you were just like,
Speaker 3: you know, I think it was Darren. It said that
Speaker 3: he had botox, and like the guys had already been
Speaker 3: really mean to your mom and then you kind of
Speaker 3: walked out. Can you kind of explain to us what
Speaker 3: was going through your head because that must have been
Speaker 3: super difficult, feeling like your mum's being attacked from every angle.
Speaker 5: Yeah, yeah, it was.
Speaker 4: It was horrible. So we had we had just seen
Speaker 4: that footage of the dad's and it was all live,
Speaker 4: and then we played the game. The card was right
Speaker 4: out and I instantly just thought, that's a dig at
Speaker 4: my mom. Yeah, and then whoever buzzed in and said, Darren,
Speaker 4: it was right. And then the first thing that actually
Speaker 4: came out of Kate's mouth was and Tanya, how does
Speaker 4: that make you feel? So they didn't air that. I
Speaker 4: don't even know if I'm allowed to say this, but
Speaker 4: that and yeah, so she said, Antonia, how does that
Speaker 4: make you feel? And I actually said to her, I said, so,
Speaker 4: out of all of the kids here, you ask me,
Speaker 4: how does that make me feel? Just because of the
Speaker 4: way my mum looks what she's got a bit of
Speaker 4: literally what mum said, a bit of botos in her
Speaker 4: forehead and lip feelers. And I just said, this is
Speaker 4: just not okay. Yeah, and I just couldn't hold it
Speaker 4: in and I just started crying. So then I just
Speaker 4: walked off because I didn't want to stand there crying
Speaker 4: while they're playing the game. So I walked off inside,
Speaker 4: and I'm just like crying. They're just not running down
Speaker 4: my nose and everyone's running around trying to find a
Speaker 4: tissue they couldn't. Then they grab a tea towels. I'm
Speaker 4: like pulling my nose into this tea towel and I'm
Speaker 4: just so upset, and I just like just kind of like, yeah,
Speaker 4: ganged up on, like kind of picked on a bit.
Speaker 4: And then before you know what, the camera crews in there,
Speaker 4: and then Kate's in there and she's still whatever she
Speaker 4: was saying to me. I was still just kind of
Speaker 4: saying like like, no, it's it's not the car, it's
Speaker 4: the fact that you asked me, How does that make
Speaker 4: me feel? When you could have asked anyone else?
Speaker 5: Why didn't she ask? Because it was actually about her dad, Ye,
Speaker 5: about my mom.
Speaker 4: Yeah, that's what upset me. And obviously they do their
Speaker 4: little spin and then they air it differently, and that
Speaker 4: really upset me because I was just like it made
Speaker 4: me even some people were kind of like, oh, that
Speaker 4: was like just like.
Speaker 5: And I was just you don't see what.
Speaker 1: You don't get the full picture.
Speaker 2: It sounds like they had their own narratives they wanted
Speaker 2: to tell.
Speaker 3: As well, yeah, was there a bit of animosity between
Speaker 3: the kids, because obviously tested, this is between Tessa's dad
Speaker 3: and your mom.
Speaker 1: Was there a bit of like, yeah, Tests was like
Speaker 1: my best I just love Tests.
Speaker 4: We would we would say, I'm kind of like mini Tests.
Speaker 4: And it was funny because her dad was kind of
Speaker 4: being so mean towards my mom, like behind Mon's back.
Speaker 4: But it was just win because Tessa and I were
Speaker 4: the closest.
Speaker 5: But she really was just like mortified.
Speaker 4: But she was mortified, and she just kept saying I'm sorry,
Speaker 4: and she was like poll Mark. She would be the
Speaker 4: first one pointing at the TV saying, oh my god,
Speaker 4: I can't believe my dad just said that, Like she
Speaker 4: was really good.
Speaker 2: Can you talk to your parents while it's all happening
Speaker 2: or no, you don't get to talk to your parents,
Speaker 2: so you can't even say it.
Speaker 5: So we don't know this, So we don't know. Christy
Speaker 5: kicked off one day and was actually going to leave
Speaker 5: the show, and because Mel kept going on dates, but
Speaker 5: we didn't know, the kids were playing games.
Speaker 6: And whoever won those games got to choose the dates,
Speaker 6: so her daughter obviously didn't win any games that day.
Speaker 5: For the date, so you know, so we didn't know
Speaker 5: that we were there.
Speaker 6: Was you know, you have conspiracy theories about stuff, and
Speaker 6: so I would always wake up in the morning walk
Speaker 6: outs and morning time, morning time, but they never showed it.
Speaker 1: So I was the one who was being mean to
Speaker 1: you behind your back?
Speaker 5: Is that right? Yeah? Yeah?
Speaker 1: And what type of things was she saying?
Speaker 5: Oh, well, she was me on day one.
Speaker 8: To me when she was mean, you said that she
Speaker 8: was bitching, but behind in the back, she was kind
Speaker 8: of just going around to like each like kind of
Speaker 8: like male and just be like, don't you think Bretti
Speaker 8: is like a bit over the top.
Speaker 4: She's just too much for me. You know, she's sitting
Speaker 4: there hearted up in the corner crying, and I was
Speaker 4: just sitting there watching the screen. But it's just being like,
Speaker 4: oh my god, no, Like the last thing I wanted
Speaker 4: was for mom to go in the house and like
Speaker 4: a female kind of like bully her and like change
Speaker 4: everyone else's opinions. But that's exactly what happened.
Speaker 6: And to me, she would just do those things where
Speaker 6: I've got to really dry sense of humans.
Speaker 5: I'd say something and then she'd go really and so
Speaker 5: then you're just like, oh my God. So I was
Speaker 5: just at the end, I just couldn't speak because I just.
Speaker 4: Felt you're walking video they did air her, someone said, oh,
Speaker 4: we've got two beauty people.
Speaker 5: Or something, and then she was just so quick to
Speaker 5: be like, I'm not I'm notting beauty.
Speaker 4: I like, I'm a hairdresser. It's just something and it's
Speaker 4: just like.
Speaker 5: And then the edit they made me go nice and
Speaker 5: I didn't like that.
Speaker 4: And if anything, if anyone between the tour of us,
Speaker 4: it's going to be a tad or bitchy, it's going
Speaker 4: to be made she does not have a bone in
Speaker 4: her body, like, she's just not like that much edited
Speaker 4: to make her look like that.
Speaker 3: What I loved I love Tanya about you is that
Speaker 3: you were like very forthcoming with your opinions. You said
Speaker 3: it how it was. It was very everything was transparent
Speaker 3: and authentic. It was like you weren't trying to be
Speaker 3: something that you weren't. You were like, this is who
Speaker 3: I am, this is my opinion. I'm not sugarcoating it.
Speaker 1: Take it or leave it. And I loved that because
Speaker 1: it came across as super genuine.
Speaker 4: Thank you, It's exactly me.
Speaker 5: We have actually got a lot of people say that
Speaker 5: about us, that you're the realist on the show.
Speaker 3: I'm maret as well because you were. You were kind
Speaker 3: of like, I'm not going to force something. I'm on
Speaker 3: this show, Like, if it's not working out for me,
Speaker 3: I'm not going to like do it to stay or whatever.
Speaker 5: Yeah. Yeah, whereas CHRISTI would say to me, you're gonna
Speaker 5: you're gonna leave. You don't hook up for someone. You've
Speaker 5: gott to hook up someone, And I'm like, I don't
Speaker 5: want to.
Speaker 2: Where are they?
Speaker 5: Yeah? No, why? I just couldn't know. Yeah, yeah, I'm
Speaker 5: not eighteen, you know, like, I'm not eighteen trying to
Speaker 5: be something. I was really genuinely there trying to find someone.
Speaker 2: Yeah, did any of the kids in the bunker hook up?
Speaker 2: Or was there any love stories there?
Speaker 5: She gets asked this a lot.
Speaker 4: Yeah, so I think not. I think, well, what is
Speaker 4: that one girl one boy did a few things.
Speaker 5: But I don't want you to say that.
Speaker 4: I'm not saying it wasn't me, but it wasn't.
Speaker 5: Don't worry other people outside. They're there involved, So I
Speaker 5: just think it's not right for us.
Speaker 2: Their parents look, well, so imagine that.
Speaker 1: So did those two people who hooked out.
Speaker 3: Did they hook up like during the experiment in the
Speaker 3: bunker or was it post show.
Speaker 4: During the experiment, But yeah, I think it was. I
Speaker 4: don't know like if it was, maybe it was just
Speaker 4: like a bedroom cam or something like that. I don't
Speaker 4: think it was like proper filmed with like cameramen and stuff.
Speaker 4: So I don't think it's going to be aired. It's
Speaker 4: about kids, right.
