And then when I was working on radio, I'd be booking people like Annie Nye and the Girthmaster, who you guys may have heard of.

They're two of Australia's biggest creators.

I'd be booking them onto the breakfast shows I worked on as their first ever mainstream interviews.

And essentially everything I was doing over these years was highlighting how these creators...

feel empowered in like a mainstream way to mainstream audiences, as well as like highlighting the crazy money they were making.

But the problem I realized with this last year, especially though, is like as OnlyFans has become more and more mainstream, creators are now going to more and more extremes to stand out, which...

has kind of become dangerous.

And I'm talking like these sex stunts of, I'm going to have sex with a thousand people today.

Oh, well, I'm going to try to sleep with more than a thousand people to beat you.

Well, I'm going to tie myself up and put myself in a glass box and people can come do what they want to me.

Like it has got out of hand.

And I have realized like this narrative that I helped initially set in the media that joining OnlyFans is like an instant gateway to fame and fortune.

is just not true and we're now at a time where we're seeing like the effect

this narrative has had on society as things now get like out of hand.

And yes, OnlyFans does make people rich and famous, but most regular people who sign up, like after being sold this dream through the media and through articles that I have done previously, they barely make minimum wage when they sign up and they're then left asking themselves like, what have I done here?

As they realize their content will live on the internet forever and it was just not worth it for them.

So on that, the show I've wanted to make for a good while now is just showing the reality of this world, but through a medium people are familiar with, which is reality television.

And when I pitched this idea to production companies or streaming places or networks, they basically all said the same thing, like...

No thanks, not for us, and you'll never make these people likable to the general public, which pissed me off and made me go, well, yeah, I will.

Just wait.
