Tayne Talks: A Reality TV Podcast

Tick Tock. We start the countdown to Decision Day with the remaining 4 couples as they look back on their childhoods and share it with their significant others. Ade shares why she really enjoyed this episode (hint: Haley and Jacob) and we notice the cloud that is lifted with Chris and Paige leaving.

Dr. Pepper is still in the building and we talk about her no-nonsense approach with the couples as she dispenses tough love to all of them. We talk about how none of the couples seem to have any hope except Ryan & Clara who's mom we think is adorable.

We can't believe Bracelet-gate and how Haley's mom handled it all wrong. We don't understand why Virginia is hell bent on sleeping over at her guy's friends house. We think she and Erik are such a mismatch.

We touch on the Unmatchables ad, Ryan's t-shirts and also give a little lesson on colorism. As always, we give updates from past couples and a recap on Unfiltered and Couples Cam.

Yup. This was a filler episode that was full of a number of untruths. In fact, Ade thinks this was the worst episode in the last few seasons.

Dr. Pepper and Pastor Cal pay the couples a visit but don't really do much. They sit with the couples individually and don't even sit with them as a couple. We wonder what the big idea with this visit was and why the couples were encouraged to speak alone and without the expert's help.

Dr. Pepper wasn't playing any games and we discuss how the experts gave both good and questionable advice even when the couples seemed to hold back. Why would Clara say their relationship is a 10/10 like she has not been ranting every day? Chris and Paige are (hopefully) finally dunzo and we had little patience for all of the rude things Chris had to say.

Bri & Vince aren't being completely honest with each other and seem to be hitting serious bumps, ErGinia continue to plow through the mud and Haley and Jacob continue their couple mission statement of trying.

We had a lot to say for a filler episode including childbirth, spending habits, Paige's wigs, MAFS terrible editing history and so much more!

Here is a sneak peek into our bonus episode where we rank all the seasons of MAFS that we have watched.

This was such a fun episode to record!

We rank all the seasons of MAFS (excluding the current season) from worst to best. Tayne has watched all the seasons and Ade has watched 7 of them. We explain how we came about our rankings and what criteria we used. We also go down memory lane in each season and reminisce over stand out moments that were funny, aggravating and down right ridiculous.

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

No, really. Who let Erik out?

Just kidding!

It's the day after the monthiversary and the couples are reminiscing over how their day went. We settle into the dog-heavy episode and talk about how important the dogs were in the relationships this episode.

We break down the many ways Erik was oh so wrong this episode and how poor Rockie bore the brunt of it all. We wonder why we have to check in if Hayley and Jacob are both checked out and playing nice only every other hour. We express our happiness over Paige (hopefully) finally moving on and give kudos to the show for shedding light on mental illness.

We continue rooting for Bri & Vince as they bask in their happiness and there was no way we were not going to dive deep into Ryan & Clara's relationship, tantra yoga and all. We have no idea what the heck is going on with Ryan and we ponder whether Ryan isn't really reciprocating.

As always, we give the social media updates from past couples and an Unfiltered recap. We love to hear from you guys so, drop all your MAFS thoughts and questions to us on Twitter or Instagram at @altarcallmafs and use the hashtag #altarcallmafs

The couples make it to one month, which is a huge deal in MAFS world. We take a walk with them down memory lane and it's nice re-watching their wedding day with them.

Haley and Jacob seem to hit a dead end and we are confused about Haley's POV claiming she had no idea how Jacob felt. We continue to seethe over this Chris & Paige farce and hope this is truly the last time they are together.

We talk about how we believe Ryan & Clara are over edited to throw us off course on how they really feel. We also talk abut how Erik & Virginia seem to just get off of saying "I love you" all the time despite all the issues they have to sort out - including the living arrangement argument. And finally we wonder why Vince and Briana are not getting more airtime?

As always, we have a social media round up and keep you up to date on past couples + an Unfiltered recap. Enjoy!

It's intimacy week and in this episode we get the pleasure of an expert visit with Dr. Viviana. We talk about enjoying having an expert around and rank our experts in order of how much value we think they bring to the table.

Our couples are still trudging along and it was a quite heavy episode with some of the couples being vulnerable about their past. We discuss how the show seems to focus more on the couples' issues than on their lighter moments.

We also wonder if any of the couples, besides Briana and Vincent will stay together. We've decided to put Haley and Jacob in the same category as Chris and Paige and mention how we won't be mad if they decide to leave because it's become painful to watch.

Hope you enjoy this snippet of our bonus episode where Tayne & Ade discuss the Australian edition of our beloved MAFS, specifically Season 6 that is currently airing on Lifetime.

Tayne is no stranger to the show and has watched the last few seasons while this is Ade's first time watching. We compare the show to its U.S counterpart and talk about the differences between the two.

Ade gives us her first impressions of the couples so far, and we play a guessing game where she guesses who stays together and who doesn't (don't worry, there were no spoilers)

We are inching towards the halfway mark of the show and we honestly can't tell if the couples are progressing or regressing.

We discuss a former cast member's comment that explains why Chris and Paige are still on our screens. We ponder Ryan & Clara's donut date and talk about Haley's backhanded gesture towards Jacob. We wonder if Jacob needs to back off a little.

We also talk about the two couples who share "I love you's". Vinny's temper tantrums and Erik's mansplaining. We mention once again how the vibe this season is off and wonder how the experts have time for a new spinoff show when they barely show up for this one.

As Pastor Dwight reminds us - A double minded man is unstable in all his ways.

It's Friends & Family week where our couples' loved ones come by to pay them a visit to see how they're doing and give them sage advice.

We talk about how great the friends were in this episode and how well the friends seem to know them. Ryan and Clara continue to be a mystery to us and Erik and Virginia continue to tiptoe around their issues. We debate whether Bri and Vince's differences are cultural and how Jacob made us realize that the wives this season love their alcohol.

We are over the Chris & Paige drama and can't decide on what reason his ex-fiancée would have to make an appearance on this show. Big side eye to Chris for insisting he had pure intentions.

And the shit show continues...

In this episode, we discuss the rollercoaster Chris and Paige continue to take us on, Haley and Jacob's continued miscommunication, Bri and Vince entering reality, Erik and Virginia and their different definitions of marriage and we find out something new about Ryan and Clara.

We finally get an expert when Pastor Cal comes into town asking all the right questions. Tune in as we wonder if Ryan is controlling, why Vince overreacted and we ask a million times - what the heck is Paige thinking?! We wonder why Virginia bothered to get married and if Haley and Jacob have a chance (Tayne thinks yes and Ade thinks not)

Then hear why next week's preview has us just...weak.
