First Things First episodes

  • She Would Have Been Pregnant!

    Things get a little saucy in this episode as we put the "Not So" into Not So PG.

    Where is the sexiest place you have had sex? Who did Matty almost make pregnant?

    We also talk about gender norms after Brooke found herself in conversation with her postman... or post person we should say...

    Brooke's back on your TV on 10's "The Challenge" - A cross between Big Brother and Survivor and you best believe she is a little competitive pocket rocket!

    Catch The Challenge on 10 Play or Channel 10 Mondays and Tuesdays at 7:30pm ADST.

  • Interrupted In The Shower!

    In this episode we talk all things The Challenge and really get an inside look at how Brooke viewed her time on the show.

    We also had to deal with some casual racism and homophobia this week, and let's just say, we were questioning what year it was! Is it really 2022?

    And Matty was caught out in a compromising position with it ALL hanging out..

  • Is It Time For A Parasite Cleanse?

    We take a look at our social media addictions and learn all about Brooke's TikTok crushes and what she has been looking at on social media - a parasite cleanse? What is THAT?

    Also, is Matty a Lizard Person? We learn about lizards that are apparently roaming around in suits... yeah, we have no idea either but ask Matty, he know about it!

    Brooke is so innocent, she thought a cow lick was something completely different from what it actually is and Matty is not so innocent, he had surgery all because he told a lie - WILD!

  • Enough Outrage, More Action

    This episode discusses violence, murder, and the death of a young boy. Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander listeners should know we will be using his name throughout the episode. If this raises any issues please reach out to the resources listed below. 

    The death of 15-year-old Cassius Turvey has sent shock and anger around the country. Outrage is one thing, but what are you going to do with it? This isn't an isolated incident and Brooke and Matty are tired of this being a very real part of First Nations kids' lives. Enough is enough. What are you going to do about it?

    We take you through the Gina Rinehart V Australian Netball Team news that kicked off last week because of *checks notes oh yeah what a surprise* deeply racist comments made by Lang Hancock (Rinehart's late father and founder of Hancock Prospecting PTY LTD). Rinehart had offered a $15million funding boost to Netball Australia and members or the team didn't feel so great about being sponsored by someone who advocated for the sterilisation of Aboriginal Australians only 50 odd years ago.

    Plus Rachel Corbett - the head of Nova Podcasts - announced she is pregnant, and is doing it solo. We talk about how badass that is, and how Brooke and Matty can't wait to make their families whether or not the right partner is in their lives.

  • Aboriginal Identity Is More Than Ticking A Box

    Brooke's wrapped her book tour in WA and was papped at the beach with MAFS alum Domenica Calarco AND Kate Walsh from Grey's Anatomy; which has Matty asking the important questions like - "do you ever wake up and just think my GOD I'm so hot"

    Plus there's been some chatter lately about a "boom" in the number of Australians identifying as First Nations people (based off 2021 census data). We chat about whether or not this is a good thing - particularly when it comes to doing the work connecting with community and culture when you come to your identity later in life.

  • Ain't Nothing Sexy About Baby Talk

    Baby talk needs to get yeeted out of the bedroom ASAP - not to yuck anyone's yum or anything.

    Plus we talk about the constant balancing act between celebrating your wins online when trolls love to spit racist garbage in the comment section.

    AND if podcasting doesn't work out turns out both B + Matty have a good chance at making $$$ from feet photos!

  • Getting Caught By Airport Security

    Brooke was caught by airport security this week and you wont believe why!

    We also chat about the Koori Knockout, Matty's fashion sense (and his shoplifting) and then we ask the question... does age really matter when it comes to love?

  • Picking Up A Man On Gumtree!

    Trying to navigate love and relationships in 2022 is hard. From the apps, to dating and then relationships, it is all just a bit rubbish!

    One of the team picked up a guy on Gumtree! Lawn mower, bed frame, a man! You really can find it anywhere these days!

  • The Nicer The Hands, The Nicer The Budoo!

    Brooke and Matty are back in the studio!

    We discuss the goddess herself that is Lizzo and discuss Disney's live action Little Mermaid release which is causing waves all over the world for all the right reasons!

    Matty reveals his theory about nice hands and fingers. We aren't sure the science backs it up, but we were willing to hear him out!

    And who got a song written that is so cringeworthy it is never going to be heard? The lyrics include: "You are my pot of gold at the bottom of the rainbow" and some thoughts on Buffy!  *Eye Roll*
