Tayne Talks: A Reality TV Podcast

Taking a break from the MAFS world, we deep dive into the TLC show, Sister Wives. Ade has been a previous viewer of the show and she encourages Tayne, who has never watched, to get into the show.

We fine comb everything about the show from its very beginnings, their beliefs, the dynamics and the slow 180 of all the women and Kodi as we go from season to season. We talk about our favorite wives, the many tears and why we think they are lying to us and themselves. Tayne also fully expresses who her least favorite wife is and why while Ade shares some tidbits that have never been shared on the show before.

Y'all know we don't watch this before the show starts and instead prefer to watch it with hindsight glasses - all the better to judge with. Here is a sneak peek at our bonus episode where we go through the process with the experts and the couples and talk about how it is a different process this year, given that it was all done virtually.

Tayne's sole goal is to see how Chris made it through but by the end of the episode, she also wonders how Jacob made it through as well. We both acknowledge how we view Jacob through a different lens now.

We also go through the experts thought process on their match-ups and wonder why they skimmed over concerns that they had. We talk about the match reveals to the couples and their reactions, how hopeful Paige was and how interesting it was that Pastor Cal asked specifically asked Chris if anyone would be mad that he is getting married.

It's finally here and the season comes to a close with the second part of the reunion. Kevin Frazier is still around to probe and interrogate a bunch of different groups and we were here for every bit of it.

We still think that this 4 hour reunion was unnecessary but we discuss how we enjoyed this second part a little more for two reasons - Paige's friend, Nancy and having the experts walk us through their thought process. We go through the painful scene that is Haley and Jacob's hatred and Ade doesn't understand why they are so focused on blaming the other.

We try to understand some of Kevin's thoughts at the reunion especially his loyalty to Haley that forces Tayne to be a Jake apologist but she uses the opportunity to teach you all a Nigerian slang.

Thank you for listening to another season. We appreciate each and everyone of you! We will be back in July for the new season but we will keep the bonus episodes coming. Look out for the Ask Us Anything episode coming soon!

It's the penultimate episode with the Part 1 reunion and Kevin Frazier is back! Loads to talk about on this episode as we discuss the recap (yet again) of the couples' journey and Kevin Frazier asks the hard hitting questions that we the people want answers to. Ade talks about how this reunion has no business being 2 hours since they filled it up with guests that added no value.

We talk about ErGinia and how they might have rehearsed some of their answers and how Ryan & Clara seemed so solid and gave us the feels. We also talk about Kevin making Ryan say the three words to Clara and if it was forced. We ponder the possibility of Chris getting media training and wonder why on earth Pastor Dwight was at the reunion.

As always, we give you an update on previous couples and give a side eye to Jake, Tayne might have a teeny crush on Ryan but she still thinks there is a possibility Ryan and Clara still haven't had sex? We also wonder if Chris and Paige have rights to pick and choose what they don't want to talk about given that they chose to be on a reality show.

We also ask you guys to drop any questions you may have for us for an upcoming Ask Us Anything episode.

We made it to the finale!

The couples finally make it to the end of 8 weeks and everyone is back, including Chris & Paige, and they have to decide on whether they want to stay married or get divorced. No surprises here as our predictions were right on the money.

We discuss how the producers make up for the lost Chris & Paige time by having them dominate decision day with their unbelievable drama. We try to make sense of Chris & Paige's thought process and fail. We also talk about the three couples that stay together and the not so surprising decision by Jake and Hayley to get a divorce.

It was a packed finale and we ponder whether Chris & Paige are in some entanglement, Dr. Viviana's frustration at Chris, the cheesecake proposal, the couples' decision day looks and so much more. We also talk about the return of Couples Cam, which of the new couples will be joining and which aren't. Tayne gives a recap of last week's Countdown to Decision Day special and Ade gives a quick rundown on the last two episodes of Unmatchables.

Here is a sneak peek into our bonus episode where we discuss everything RHOA. We talk about the franchise as a whole - where it ranks among the franchises for us, our favorite past and present housewives and how the ladies understand that this is a reality show and play their roles accordingly. Ade reminds us that RHOA has a lot of one season wives.

We recap the season as a whole - How the ladies fared in a covid season, the newbies (we find Drew cringey) and of course, the Bolo episode. We talk about the three part reunion, the women's fashion, the Porscha and Kenya feud and how there wasn't really much to rehash that hasn't been rehashed already.

Since we did not recap the Countdown to Decision Day Special, we decided to recap the first two episodes of the newest addition to the MAFS family - Unmatchables with Dr. Viviana and Pastor Cal. We fill you in on the premise of the show and then discuss the first two couples featured in each episode.

We dissect everything about the show - from the selection process, to how loose the experts are on this show, without the pressure of a marriage like on MAFS. We also discuss how this show is not exempt from the over-editing and over producing like its parent show.

We share our different takes on the show - Tayne thinks the premise might affect the original MAFS while Ade doesn't think so and we let you know if we will watch this show again.

Don't forget as the season winds down, we will be dropping bonus episodes on our Patreon. You can join at https://www.patreon.com/AltarCallMAFS

We're almost there, people! The couples spend their last night together before Decision Day and this is one tense, edit heavy episode, as the producers try their hardest to make us think we have no idea what they will do. We discuss how the edits had a lot of the conversations making no sense and Ade points out that they had one person in each couple sure of what they will say and had the other seem unsure.

We do our best to break down a filler episode that is full of the same things we have watched in the last few weeks - Haley and Jake still thinking positive, Vince being childish, Clara still waiting for an I love you and ErGinia just being...Erginia.

As always, we give the social media updates from past couples and an Unfiltered season finale recap. We discuss how the timing of the reunion means different things to us, make predictions for decision day and Ade predicts the order of the couples on the D-day couch.

So close but still far from Decision Day, the couples are sent off to a couples retreat to hang out with the other couples and keep working on their relationship. Probably on edge close to d-day, we discuss all the problems that seemed to surface over the weekend.

We can't for the life of us understand Haley and Jacob as a couple and neither do they as we dissect the palpable hatred between them on this trip and how Jacob does not play with his meat and eggs. We also talk about how this was not a good episode for Virginia and Erik and Ade reminds us how incompatible they are. We still think they will stay together. We also talk about Vince's latest tantrum and Clara's astute observation on how stubborn her girls are.

As always, we give the social media updates from past couples and an Unfiltered recap. Tayne also recaps past couple, Jamie and Doug's latest podcast episode where Jamie thinks Doug is cheating on her. Drop your comments here or on Instagram and Twitter - @altarcallmafs.

Here is a sneak peek into our bonus episode where we revisit the 90 Day Fiance world with the Reunion Tell All that aired this week. If you haven't heard our previous episode before the 90 Day Fiance season premiere, you should go back and listen (Bonus Episode 4 - full episodes available to all!)

We do a run down on how we felt about the season as a whole and Ade explains why she thinks it is the worst season in recent times. We reminisce about old season formats and former couples we loved and got sick of and Tayne believes this is the first season Shaun Robinson has ever watched in its entirety.

We go through all the Tell All couples and breakdown Andrew's tantrums, Tarik and Hazel's complicated relationship and of course the hatred Mike and Natalie have for each other. It's a fun episode!

We hope you enjoy the preview. Feel free to share your thoughts on the episode! And don't forget that you can check out the full episode by joining our Patreon at https://www.patreon.com/AltarCallMAFS
