MAFS Funny Podcast

In this podcast you hear what happened last week as I attended the NSW Parliamentary Inquiry into unsolved murders and long-term missing persons cases where Katie Walker was used an example into present day police failures. The entire day was heartbreaking, infuriating and eye opening into what Katie is sadly now part of. 

I also speak to Sally Leydon, the daughter of missing person Marion Barter, who you some of you may know from podcasts The Lady Vanishes or The Missing Matter, about proposed police reform.

After his split from Stella earlier this year, Filip has re-launched his YouTube channel and is pushing an anti-relationship, anti-woman and dangerous rhetoric that plays into misogyny and the manosphere. In this episode I break down what he’s saying, how there’s a financial motive attached to his views and how the rest of the cast, including Stella, are reacting to what feels like a new person to the one we watched on TV.

As Katie Walker’s story continues to reach more people, a growing number have questioned if she could have intentionally disappeared and is choosing to stay hidden. In this episode, after much research into previous cases like this around the world, I discuss why myself, and Katie’s family, do not believe this theory.

I also discuss the Parliamentary Inquiry that is happening in New South Wales tomorrow where Sally Leydon, the daughter of longterm missing person Marion Barter, will share Katie’s story.

As one couple are kicked off the show, another groom is dubbed the future 'most hated man in Australia' and four cast members have previously dated each other, in this episode I look at what's happening on-set of Married At First Sight 2027 and what we can expect from the upcoming 14th series.

As I await a response from NSW Premier Chris Minns on how he can help Katie Walker by raising her case with the Police Commissioner, this week I look at the eerily similar disappearance of 28-year-old Melody O’Gara (pictured) – who was last seen in the exact same spot as Katie in 2004.  

The Tamarama location isn’t the only thing Melody and Katie’s disappearances have in common, which is what left Katie’s brother “freaked out” as I shared this story with him after it was first sent to me by a lovely listener.

I spent several days this week questioning if I share Melody’s story and if it’s relevant? Or if we’re simply now clutching at anything in the hope it’ll bring… something? Ultimately, I decided that even if this isn’t related to Katie, despite the similarities, at the very least this podcast today will help keep Melody O’Gara’s memory alive.

After months of silence, NSW Police Media Unit finally respond to me about Katie Walker's disappearance - and what they say, and the reason I believe they decided to finally reply, will infuriate you. Australian radio star Kyle Sandilands also backs my investigation and helps me speak to NSW Premier Chris Minns who has now publicly promised to raise this with Police Commissioner of New South Wales. 

In this episode, I also become emotional while explaining why Katie Walker's story resonates so much with me - and why I won't give up trying to find answers.

We start this episode with Katie Walker reading from her own book – an extract that is now chilling to hear knowing what happened before she got chance to finish writing. I then discuss the significance of Dubai in the story of her disappearance and how a human trafficking operation potentially first targeted Katie in Sedona and could be behind everything. 

Throughout this series, and especially these last two episodes, i've struggled to make sense of everything I've been told and put it all into a script that'd make sense for you guys to follow - and that's because, more than ever with this story, I've realised so much doesn't make sense and it often feels impossible to piece together... hence why Katie is sadly still missing. 

If you know anything, please contact Crime Stoppers 1800 333 000 and PROOF INVESTIGATIONS.

Before I get to why Katie Walker’s friends and family now believe she was potentially targeted by a human trafficking operation, in this episode I take you back 10 years to Costa Rica when Katie’s search for solace led to her being persuaded to take psychedelic drugs as part of a ritual that promised her a spiritual awakening.

It was this trip that friends say changed the trajectory of Katie’s life and led to more darkness than enlightenment. 

Plus, in this episode I introduce you to Katie’s second husband Dean Taraborelli, who claims to make ‘miracles’ at the sanctuary he owns in Sedona, which Katie lived at for six years up until late 2023.

The next episode will be out on Monday.

It has now been 117 days since Katie Walker was last seen in Sydney's Tamarama - and this week, a lot has happened. A new person has come forward and their claims have led to a huge development which, in our opinion, finally and definitively, prove that Katie Walker did not end her life.

Katie Walker, 46, was last seen in Sydney's Tamarama at 1:12pm on May 23, 2026. 

In articles several weeks ago now, the press wrongly identified the mum-of-two as a "Married At First Sight Australia producer" and described the wrong woman. They confused Katie Walker with Kate Walker, who works in TV. Since then, some outlets have quietly deleted their stories and there has been zero further coverage.

The real Katie's story has now been ignored by all mainstream media.

I (Joshua Fox) have spent a week now speaking to Katie's frustrated friends and family, and promised them I'd use my platforms to get her face and story out there that'll hopefully lead to new information. Plus, I've been speaking the private investigator they've hired to also try and find answers

I'll be documenting our progress on this new podcast, The disappearance of Katie Walker, as well as on my Instagram, TikTok and Facebook. 

NOTE: NSW Police have now issued two public appeals for information and their investigation is active.

Married At First Sight 2027 has officially started filming this week, and as last season's cast fight about who they should turn to for advice, here's an open letter to them from me. In this, I discuss the psychological journey they're about to go on, the various emotional stages of the process they won't realise until months later and the producer tactics to look out for. 

Everything I read in this letter is from spending years speaking to far too many former cast members than I could ever count.

This episode is going to make several people uncomfortable.

That includes myself, the influencers from the Bali trip, content creators in general, journalists at mainstream publications and, in some ways, you, listening to this, wherever you are.

I’m now home from Bali, I’ve spent 48 hours reflecting on what I learned over there, what I’ve learned from the online commentary and I have a few things to say.

In this episode, you’ll also hear from Below Deck’s Alli Dore, who is now recovering from the “rib contouring” procedure and Stella from this year’s Married At First Sight, who shares her own cosmetic surgery story – and the regrets she now has.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

This isn't the ending I thought this Bali series would have, but after I waved Married At First Sight bride Bec off at the hospital ahead of her "rib recontouring" surgery, a lot quickly changed. In this episode, she explains why she has backed out of it, for now, at least.

PS: Not discussed in the episode but It is worth noting though that here, in Bali, several of the girls' scheduled surgery times and days did get switched once they arrived, allowing for people like Bec, who weren't first up, to have that little bit of extra time to stop and think, like you'll hear in this episode. 

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Ahead of Married At First Sight bride Bec undergoing the “rib recontouring” procedure with all of the other influencers here in Bali, we sit down to really discuss why she is doing this and the conversation left me a little sad. I also share my thoughts on this whole thing so far and what I've realised. 

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

As I remain in Bali, in this second episode of my little investigation series into the rise of "rib recontouring" I address the backlash, welcome former Married At First Sight bride Awhina into my hotel studio ahead of her procedure and ask both Awhina and Bec: Why are you doing this? And do you think it's setting a dangerous example to young people? 

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

I'm currently in Bali alongside Bec and a group of other Australian influencers who are here to undergo a very controversial new cosmetic procedure called rib recontouring - or the "snatched waist". I have come here to investigate why this is the fastest growing procedure in the world, why it is about to be forced into millions of Aussies newsfeeds and what the actual reality of it is.

Trigger Warning: This episode discusses rape, sexual assault and sexual violence.

A lot of you have been asking for my thoughts on the Married At First Sight UK situation, which is still very much unfolding.

As the Bec vs Small Business drama continues across socials, I've decided to look at the bigger picture of all of this with how the influencer world is now being more regulated, how so many Married At First Sight participants are (presumably unaware that they're) breaking Australian Consumer Law with most of their posts and the huge fines they face if investigated by the ACCC.

The last time I interviewed Bec, she’d just lost her job, everything was uncertain and she was still heartbroken. Now, as the dust has settled on this year’s Married At First Sight, I wanted to see how things have changed for her in the seven weeks since we last spoke.

During this interview, Bec breaks down what her new talent management do, the $6,000 brand deal she turned down, how things stand with certain cast members and what is happening between her and her rumoured new man, who is a well-known male escort.

After the unexpected success of Dear Scott the song, and then the Final Vow follow ups, I've done one step further and wrote and recorded (via the random AI app) this end of season song: We Kept Watching. I hope this puts a smile on your face as you go into the weekend. 

Lyrics below. 

Verse 1
This season started like a promise in disguise
White dresses, big dreams, hope in their eyes
But something twisted underneath the vows
A finger banging scandal, brought it all down

Verse 2
Gia came in like fire and gasoline
Unhinged, calculated, borderline mean
Every episode went further than before
A leaked group chat about to burst through the door,

Pre-Chorus
Yeah, we said “this can’t get worse”
Then it did, yeah it got absurd

Chorus
Oh oh, we kept watching
Every dinner party, couldn’t look away
Oh oh, we kept watching
Bec's on the wine again, her and Danny up in flames
We can judge them from our couches at night
But we’re feeding every moment of the fight
Oh oh, we kept watching
Yeah, we’re part of the problem, right?

Verse 3
Scandals hitting brand new lows
Poor Joel's teddy bear, he knows
Leaked messages calling Alissa a rat
No one forgets drama like that

Verse 4
Sam writing truths inside his book
Scott breaking down, couldn’t even look
Filip and Stella tried to save the show
Gia quitting and returning every week, oh no

Pre-Chorus Repeat
We said “surely this is it”
But we stayed, yeah we committed

Chorus Repeat
Oh oh, we kept watching
Every meltdown, every bitter fight
Oh oh, we kept watching
Finger banging drama, neon lights
We can judge them, say it’s all a mess
But we’re tuning in, we must confess
Oh oh, we kept watching
Yeah, we helped create this stress

Bridge
What does it say ‘bout you and me?
We crave the chaos on our screens
We shake our heads, but still press play
Addicted to the disarray
It’s not just them, it’s what we choose
A finger bang we always lose

Final Chorus
Oh oh, we kept watching
Through every scandal, every tear
Oh oh, we kept watching
Even when it felt too weird
We can judge them, say they’ve gone too far
But we made them who they are
Oh oh, we kept watching
Yeah, we’re part of it… we are

This evening we watched Danny and David brutally dump their wives during the Married At First Sight final vow ceremonies, so I've taken their brutal speeches and turned them into two surprising songs.

See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

After waking up to many messages requesting this, here you go - featuring the lyrics below for you to sing a long too. This will make no sense if you haven't listened to yesterday's podcast.

Verse 1

Dear Scott,
This hurts in a way I didn’t think it could.
Through all the chaos and odds stacked against us we had found a real connection, and for me love.
It felt real the way you looked at me, the way we spoke about our future, looked at houses and even spoke about family pets we wanted.

Verse 2

When I entered this experiment I was incredibly hard shelled,
but overtime you softened me,
and I thank you for bringing that side back out in me.

Chorus 1

When we packed our bags together that day,
I truly believed we were leaving together, choosing each other, not the experiment.
I was ready to face whatever came next with you by my side,
but then you stayed and didn’t follow through, with our plans...
in saying that, if I had of known you'd be uncomfortable I would have never left.
I wish you told me why you didn’t leave with me,
and I'm hoping for some closure because the last 3 months have meant everything to me.

Bridge

I want to take accountability for the times I’d self sabotage and walk out, I’m sorry Scott.
At the time in this experiment I’ve felt emotionally exhausted with pressure and missing my daughter.

[AI started doing it's own mumble thing here]

Chorus 2
When we packed our bags together that day,
I truly believed we were leaving together, choosing each other, not the experiment.
I was ready to face whatever came next with you by my side,
but then you stayed and didn’t follow through, with our plans...
in saying that, if I had of known you'd be uncomfortable I would have never left.
I wish you told me why you didn’t leave with me,

[AI started doing it's own mumble thing here again]

Outro

It’s hard being a single mum, I don’t let people in easy but I let you in.
My daughter...

I told Bec she could only come on the podcast if she's brutally honest and nothing is off limits... and what she said even surprised me. During the chat, we spoke about alcoholism, drug use, the truth about the house she owns, getting fired from her job and why she believed Danny was falling for her amongst many other things.

As we all process the sad news of Married At First Sight expert Mel Schilling’s passing, in this episode I reflect on what we can take from this sad situation, what Mel’s final messages were and I then call my mother as we reflect on how cancer has impacted our family.

Following the tragic news of Married At First Sight relationship expert Mel Schilling’s passing, I’m unable to sleep and writing this at 02:05AM after spending hours listening to Mel's final interviews from the last two years - which I've decided to bring together, for this tribute episode.

As she battled cancer, Mel remained optimistic while urging everybody to listen to their bodies, take a moment to check in with themselves and if you’re noticing any changes – especially in your bowel habits – get it checked immediately, and if you’re unhappy with the answer from your doctor, get a second and even third opinion.

RIP Mel Schilling.

In the two years since then, she has shied away from the public eye, turned to religion, built a new life for herself and is now ready to speak about what prompted this change for the first time.
