  • Is The Fantasy Bra ICONIC? or Ridiculous?

    Tayla has watched the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show reveal roughly 35 times and still gets emotional over its $50 million fantasy bra. Marcelo struggles to understand why she’s crying over someone walking down a runway in expensive underwear and thinks the money could have been put to much better use doing anything else at all.

    Tayla shares some of the worst workplace mistakes people still think about years later, from telling a cancer patient to “enjoy the rest of your days” to promising a double amputee they’ll be “back on their feet in no time.” One worker even congratulated someone on their retirement in their funeral card it just gets better and better.

    This week’s Uncomfortable Moment brought to you by the good folks at Budgie Smuggler comes from a listener whose drunk ex-girlfriend had an accident in his bed. Years later, he still can’t forget the smell or what he had to do afterwards.

  • Would You Allow This At Your Wedding?

    The Montoyas react to a bride walking down the aisle beside a public swimming pool filled with strangers watching the ceremony. Tayla thinks the venue should have closed the pool, while Marcelo argues the other guests paid good money for their holiday. If you want complete privacy, apparently you need to hire the entire resort or get married on a private island.

    Tayla reveals it took four attempts to pass her driving test, including one attempt where she crashed into a pole before even leaving the car park. Her former driving instructor then calls into Triple M and confirms every lesson was an adventure. Now Tayla and Marcelo have agreed to retake the test and finally discover who is actually the better driver.

    This week’s What We’re Invested In, thanks to Blue Wealth Property, is the new flying Tesla car. Marcelo is impressed, but Tayla has questions: Does it come with its own ramp? Do you need a pilot’s licence? And if she already struggles with gates, garages and hedges, should she really be allowed anywhere near one?

  • Never Rate Another Man's Wife

    A footy journalist shares a player’s appreciation post for his wife and asks followers whether he’s “punching.” The post sparks a debate about whether partners should be dragged into online commentary, and Tayla and Marcelo weigh in on whether it crossed the line.

    Tayla convinces her mum to save money by doing her own nails, which goes brilliantly until one disappears into her dad’s salad. Surely that couldn’t happen twice? A few days later, another nail turns up in a restaurant dessert. At this point, Marcelo thinks it might be deliberate.

    Down the Thread Hole asks for the most unhinged things guests have ever done inside someone else’s home. Sleeping with the host’s girlfriend, leaving a used condom on a Bible, installing a hidden bathroom camera and leaving a trail of diarrhoea through the kitchen are just the beginning. Tayla also reveals why one childhood friend was permanently banned after a visit to her house.

  • The Most Unhinged Chat GPT Questions Ever

    The Montoyas launch their first Monday episode in front of a live audience! One man has hard launched his divorce on Instagram, complete with an FAQ explaining what happened, who gets the pets and whether people can still invite them both to events. Marcelo is convinced there’s more to the story. Was there cheating, swinging or an opera career that destroyed the marriage?

    Marcelo finally abandons his dream of owning a Nokia and buys a new iPhon, but the real trouble begins when he pays $295 for two phone cases and a screen protector. Tayla nearly turns the twins’ stroller around to demand a refund, lucky for the unamed store the twins were hungry otherwise it would of been on.

    Tayla discovers the most unhinged ways people are using ChatGPT. It’s being used as a relationship referee, personal shopper, lawyer and even to recreate conversations with a friend who has passed away. Then someone admits using it to fabricate evidence after getting caught cheating. Maybe artificial intelligence has officially gone too far!

    Marcelo makes the genius decision to leave his wallet on top of the car before driving away. By the time he realises, it’s gone and someone has already tried to spend $800 on Amazon gift cards. Tayla is furious, Marcelo is surprisingly calm and, forget the bank cards, he’s mostly mourning the Burberry wallet Tayla bought him!

    Finally, Tayla has one simple request: Marcelo needs to stop tightening every lid like he’s competing in a strongman competition. The twins’ water bottles are impossible to open, and it’s bringing back memories of the time Tayla cried at 4am because she couldn’t get the lid off her blender. Marcelo’s solution? Get stronger. Helpful as always!

  • The Dumbest Argument I've Ever Had

    *Join our Patreon* Sign up for a bonus episode each week and more, exclusive to paid subscribers. Plus massive news for Patreon subscribers, listen out in this weeks Patreon episode, you now have access to our hotline to leave us a message!

    Marcelo arrives home to tell Tayla he's scored two free coffees, only for Tayla to discover they’ve come with a very expensive parking fine. He barely accepts that he broke the rules, but what he can’t accept is being caught by a parking ranger wearing a cowboy hat while driving a hybrid RAV4. If you’re going to dress like Crocodile Dundee you should at least arrive on horseback.

    An innocent trip to the playground turns into Tayla beefing with a five-year-old after he tells one of the twins to shut up and stop copying him. When he returns to order the family off a park bench, Tayla decides she’s had enough and stands up for her girls once and for all.

    Plus, the Montoyas reveal the laziest things people have ever done. From paying for a remote control app to avoid leaving the couch, to wearing sunglasses in bed because turning off the light feels like too much work, Tayla and Marcelo discover that some people’s laziness knows absolutely no limits.

  • Ladies Beware Of GTA 6

    *Join our Patreon* Sign up for a bonus episode each week and more, exclusive to paid subscribers. Plus massive news for Patreon subscribers, listen out in this weeks Patreon episode, you now have access to our hotline to leave us a message!

    The Montoyas arrive slightly dusty after Marcelo’s final Bulldogs awards night as a player, where Tayla enjoys her newfound NRLW friends and Marcelo walks face-first into a glass door. Then it’s back to reality and Marcelo’s new nine-to-five life, although his colleagues may already be regretting it after he starts calling them before their working day has even begun.

    Tayla reveals how close the family came to losing Louis after he squeezed through a tiny gap and ended up stranded in the middle of a busy road in Cronulla. A stranger stops traffic to rescue him, Ralph suddenly remembers he’s a German Shepherd and absolute chaos follows. One dog nearly gets run over, the other gets kicked, Tayla loses track of the twins thankfully everyone is SAFE.

    Plus, Tayla warns women about the reported GTA 6 “girlfriend mode,” where players can take a virtual partner shopping, buy her flowers and keep the relationship alive. Is having a girlfriend inside a video game actually cheating, or are people taking pixels on a screen far too seriously? The Montoyas attempt to settle the internet’s newest relationship debate.

  • The One Topic That Will Start A Fight

    *Join our Patreon* Sign up for a bonus episode each week and more, exclusive to paid subscribers. Plus massive news for Patreon subscribers, listen out in this weeks Patreon episode, you now have access to our hotline to leave us a message!

    Marcelo attends his nephew’s rugby union grand final expecting nothing more than a giant game of kick tennis. Instead, he leaves questioning everything he thought he knew about union and wishing he’d played it himself as a young fella. The Montoyas also debate whether children need to experience losing or if everyone should walk away with a participation award.

    A survey reveals the five things couples fight about most, and naturally, Tayla and Marcelo manage to tick off most of the list. This leads them back to their latest argument: whether Lebanese bread that’s been sitting in the fridge can still be called fresh. The disagreement ends with silent treatment, separate bedrooms and, somehow, one of the best nights they’ve both had in ages.

    Plus, the Montoyas discover an $800 toothbrush and have plenty of questions. For that price, it shouldn’t just clean Marcelo’s teeth—it should straighten them, build the family a new house and get the twins ready for school. Is it the future of dental care or has the world officially lost the plot?
