EMERGENCY EPISODE! TW: this episode includes an open discussion about family and domestic violence, abusive patterns in relationships and coercive control.
You know and love Yvie Jones from TV, radio and podcasts but it was her recent story about the violent behaviour shown on MAFS that really got my attention. And I just knew we had to drill down into Yvie’s thoughts in more detail.
We jumped straight in to unpack our thoughts on Paul and Carina, Adrian and Awhina, how the MAFS experts handled the content (and what we think they missed), and why this was a wasted opportunity to turn something all tooreal into a crucial lesson for all Australians.
We had many, many thoughts. And because of that, we’ll bedoing this weekly! Subscribe now to be the first to hear our weekly MAFS deep dives, from the frightening to the inane.
