The MAFS Conversation That Crushed Our Souls
On the show today… The Hollywood Reporter has released an investigation into Joss Whedon’s behaviour on the set of blockbuster movie Justice League and it unearthed some disturbing news about Wonder Woman star Gal Gadot.

Plus, in today's deep dive...this week Married At First Sight decided they needed an extra hit of drama and so teamed the poor souls up for girls and boys night reunions, where one conversation in particular broke the cast (and us).

MAFS’ Most Dramatic Moment Was All A Set-Up

The Alarming Response To Khloe Kardashian's Illegal Photo
On the show today… Yellow Wiggle Emma Watkins is engaged, which is lovely, but let's talk about why adults are so invested in the dramatic love lives of a kid's musical group.

Plus, in today's deep dive...right now, there is a photo circulating online of Khloe Kardashian that her family is desperate for you not to see. The story of how the image was leaked is pretty wild all by itself, but it’s also unearthed a much bigger problem of how we “see” the Kardashian family.
