We are right in the thick of Married at First Sight madness, and this week’s dinner party is quite possibly the most toxic event in the history of the franchise. Sharyn isn't holding back on Brook, who has cemented her spot as one of the show’s biggest villains. While Brook reportedly tried to stop the episode with a cease and desist letter, the footage speaks for itself. We also look at the reality of the "mean girl" narrative and why an apology doesn't always fix the damage done on set.

Beyond the reality TV chaos, we have some bittersweet news from Hollywood. We’re remembering Eric Dane, famous for his role as McSteamy on Grey’s Anatomy, who recently passed away after a battle with ALS. His final interview is a beautiful, heartbreaking memento for his family and a massive awareness builder for the disease. On a lighter note, the creator of Bluey is officially working on a new show for adults, which has us (and every other exhausted parent) absolutely pumped.

To wrap things up, we celebrate the Auckland Pride Festival with our Person of the Week, Hugo Girl. Hugo has dealt with some incredibly tough moments, including facing down protestors during children's storytime sessions, yet continues to bring pure sunshine and education to the community. We chat about the difference between drag kings and queens, the importance of intergenerational bonding with "Elder Queers," and why being "out" in 2026 is both better and scarier than ever before.
