For the last 6 + months, they have struggled with catering to their kids during bedtime.

Jamie would lay in bed with Henley and read, and then try to fall asleep to sleep stories. Doug is very anti-letting the kids sleep in their bed. Both Jamie and Doug were waking up multiple times a night, whether it was their daughter crying and climbing in bed with them, or their 3yr old son crying that he was scared.

Jamie and Doug discuss their extremely challenging past week. Jamie found out her Grandmother passed away, which was the first time someone she had known all her life had passed. Jamie talks about their relationship, and we learn more about their family dynamic. She opens up about how her grandmother’s passing has, in a way, helped reconnect Jamie and her mom. Hear about Jamie’s 3-hour phone call with her mother, and how this may have positively impacted her mother’s outlook on life. Jamie also had a girlfriend Sarah pass away a few days later from ovarian cancer. Doug and Jamie reflect on how quickly life can be taken away, and how lucky they are to live. Sarah has made such a profound impact on Jamie’s life, and how she looks at depression, anxiety, and complaining in a whole new light. Sarah knew she was given 2 to 5 years left, and fought every day to stay here on earth, and her one big wish was to see her son off to kindergarten this year. Hear Sarah’s story, and how important it is to advocate for your body, your health, and your family. Follow along with us below!

Before we dive in today, we just want to take a moment to say thank you! We really appreciate that you’re here and listening to our show, and how loyal and supportive you are. In today’s show, we’ll start off by chatting about Married at First Sight! The current season is coming to a close, and soon the couples will need to decide whether they want to stay married. So if you’re not up-to-date on the show, go watch it and then come back so you don’t accidentally hear spoilers! Can you believe that Kate and Luke have been having sex since the honeymoon?! The way he talks about her has never been okay, but knowing that they’ve been intimate this whole time is wild. We’ll also talk about AJ and Stephanie’s interactions in the newest episode, and Stephanie’s (wise!) decision to go to bed mid-drama. Everyone is talking about Kate and Luke, so we’d love to hear your thoughts on AJ and Stephanie in particular! Our guest today is Kate Casey, who you may recognize from her podcast Reality Life with Kate Casey! She interviews top producers and directors, and somehow manages to get the inside scoop on everything. Today, she goes beyond her professional life, and explains both her complicated relationship with her father and what it’s like to be a parent of five children. Kate believes that lots of people (including some from this season of MAFS…) go on reality shows not because they believe in the premise of the show, but because they want a boost to their business or social media. Tune into the episode to hear more about her theory, as well as which shows she recommends watching! In This Episode: [00:58] - Welcome to the show, and thank you so much for being here! Before we start, here’s a shoutout to a listener who left a review on iTunes. [02:32] - Let’s talk about Married at First Sight! We’re approaching the end of the season, when the people on the show will decide whether they want to get married. [05:06] - Jamie and Doug move onto talking about AJ and Stephanie, and whether any of the couples are a genuinely good match. [07:23] - Doug and Jamie introduce today’s guest, Kate Casey. [09:08] - Kate talks about her life growing up, and explains the complicated non-relationship that she had with her father (and how they get along today). [14:00] - We learn that Kate’s father isn’t interested in doing a DNA test. [14:48] - Is it manageable to have five kids? [20:48] - Kate has been watching this season of Married at First Sight, and shares her reaction to Luke as well as her thoughts on why people tend to go on later seasons of reality shows. [25:18] - Kate talks about how many cast members pitch themselves for a spinoff, and shares her experience in meeting the cast of 90 Day Fiance. [31:06] - Jamie rewinds a bit and explains what they’re talking about for anyone who isn’t up to date on this season of MAFS. [34:05] - Would Kate sleep with someone if they told her that they felt dead and repulsed after making out with her? [35:58] - Kate shares her thoughts on this season of the Bachelor, and whether Colton is in love with any of the girls. [39:16] - Doug explains that lots of the guys auditioning for MAFS in the first season were actors. [41:43] - Jamie believes that the experts on MAFS are pure, she explains. [46:43] - The American MAFS is more genuine than the Australian version, Jamie explains, and Kate talks more about the Australian version. [50:28] - Kate offers some suggestions for reality shows that Jamie might like to binge. [52:01] - What are Kate’s top three favorite reality shows, and what are some she dislikes? [59:47] - We hear Kate’s recommendation for what to watch after finishing Leaving Neverland. [61:41] - Where can listeners find Kate to learn more about her or keep up with her podcast?
