As this year's cast now all battle it out for brand deals and followers, in this podcast I breakdown realistically what money is on the table right now - and why most of them won't make anything.

Plus, I speak to Lisa Galway, the Founder and Creative Director of The Femi Agency, a social media and brand management agency, who has some great insights into how the influencer world has changed in recent years and what this means for Married At First Sight participants.

I invited Sam over to my house on Saturday to finally meet and record a podcast chat about life post Married At First Sight, gay hook up culture and, um, saving penguins while trying to prove to Australia… he’s not as serious as he may seem with his little notebook.

As the public response to Danny has dramatically changed over the last week or so, here's how his friends are trying to take Bec down to build him up again. Sadly for Danny though, it may be a lost cause if the final episode of After The Dinner Party is as bad as I'm told...

After the unexpected success of Dear Scott the song, and then the Final Vow follow ups, I've done one step further and wrote and recorded (via the random AI app) this end of season song: We Kept Watching. I hope this puts a smile on your face as you go into the weekend.

Lyrics below.

Verse 1
This season started like a promise in disguise
White dresses, big dreams, hope in their eyes
But something twisted underneath the vows
A finger banging scandal, brought it all down

Verse 2
Gia came in like fire and gasoline
Unhinged, calculated, borderline mean
Every episode went further than before
A leaked group chat about to burst through the door,

Pre-Chorus
Yeah, we said “this can’t get worse”
Then it did, yeah it got absurd

Chorus
Oh oh, we kept watching
Every dinner party, couldn’t look away
Oh oh, we kept watching
Bec's on the wine again, her and Danny up in flames
We can judge them from our couches at night
But we’re feeding every moment of the fight
Oh oh, we kept watching
Yeah, we’re part of the problem, right?

Verse 3
Scandals hitting brand new lows
Poor Joel's teddy bear, he knows
Leaked messages calling Alissa a rat
No one forgets drama like that

Verse 4
Sam writing truths inside his book
Scott breaking down, couldn’t even look
Filip and Stella tried to save the show
Gia quitting and returning every week, oh no

Pre-Chorus Repeat
We said “surely this is it”
But we stayed, yeah we committed

Chorus Repeat
Oh oh, we kept watching
Every meltdown, every bitter fight
Oh oh, we kept watching
Finger banging drama, neon lights
We can judge them, say it’s all a mess
But we’re tuning in, we must confess
Oh oh, we kept watching
Yeah, we helped create this stress

Bridge
What does it say ‘bout you and me?
We crave the chaos on our screens
We shake our heads, but still press play
Addicted to the disarray
It’s not just them, it’s what we choose
A finger bang we always lose

Final Chorus
Oh oh, we kept watching
Through every scandal, every tear
Oh oh, we kept watching
Even when it felt too weird
We can judge them, say they’ve gone too far
But we made them who they are
Oh oh, we kept watching
Yeah, we’re part of it… we are

This evening we watched Danny and David brutally dump their wives during the Married At First Sight final vow ceremonies, so I've taken their brutal speeches and turned them into two surprising songs.
