Alex' expert MAFS commentary & Jordy's viral memes have brought some new showbies to the block this week and we're SO happy you're here.


Last week's dinner party could go down in history as the most BRUTAL. Over the course of the episode, we watched Brook & Gia relentlessly taunt & mock fellow contestants, Alissa & Stella. Cue the public backlash, but in a time when villains gone by would blame the edit, Brook & Gia were forced to take responisiblity for their behaviour. Why? Because we had seen so much unedited, terrible behaviour that this excuse simply wouldn't fly. Of course, Alex & Jordy RACED to socials to point this out & hint that perhaps, the 'bad edit' has been a phallacy all along. To our surprise, comments from past contestants came in thick and fast. What did they say? You'll have to listen to find out...


Every man & their dog is trying to get Hilary Duff tickets, so Jordy finally shares the story about how she almost entered the family tree.


We discuss the recently released Netflix docouseries that focuses on the controversial legacy of America’s Next Top Model. As Jordy predicted, Tyra Banks gave a lacklustre apology & denied A LOT of responsibility. We recount some of Tyra's most unhinged moments, including the time that, for absolutely no reason at all, she pretended to have rabies on live television.
