About this listen

Rugby League star Marcelo Montoya is a clean freak who makes sure everything in his life is ”just so”. His wife Tayla thrives on annoying her husband with her form of hilarious disorder, constantly keeping him on his toes. Once they start talking, the conversation could end up anywhere. Join in as The Montoya’s lift the curtain on the life and relationship of Aussie imports assimilating into New Zealand as a newly married couple. Think Keeping Up with the Kardashians crossed with Modern Family and tune in for the podcast you never knew you needed. Follow: @themontoyaspodcast on TikTok and Instagram About The Hosts: Tayla Montoya is an ex-cheerleader with her roots from a large Italian Australian family, with all the passion and fire that comes with that. Most importantly, she is like that friend at the BBQ that is constantly surprising the group with a new questionable take, internet-based obsession or just something to annoy her husband. Marcelo Montoya is a Fijian Australian professional rugby league player and brings insight into what it actually means to be a professional sportsman. He is a little bit bogan, and a whole lot of a perfectionist. He strives for everything in his life to be centered and deliberate so he can perform at the highest level, while contending with his wife’s need to try and throw him off balance.2026 The Montoyas Podcast Relationships Social Sciences

    Tayla had the day from hell, that just kept getting worse! Luckily along came her knight in shining armour, Marcelo… who are we kidding he was one of the culprits!

    Later this Lombardis and Tayla and heading to Vegas for the NRL opening weekend. The family dogs, Ralphie and Louie will be looked after by dog sitters, but after hearing the bizarre list instructions there’s doubt if they even show up!

    At a family dinner, Tayla learns her uncle friend is being catfished and not for the first time! It’s safe to say the family didn’t let him off lightly.
