Chapter 1: What surprise interview does Joshua set up for his mum?

0.031 - 21.361 Joshua Fox

Hello and welcome back to the Maths Money podcast with me, Joshua Fox. Now I have a very exciting podcast today and it involves my mum doing a surprise interview with her favourite cast member and she's got no idea this is about to happen. And if you're wondering why this is about to happen, basically... As some of you guys may know, Married at First Sight Australia is huge in the UK.

21.802 - 38.737 Joshua Fox

I'm talking it's one of the biggest shows over there. It captivates the country and the audience is just as big as it is in Australia. But they start airing it usually about six weeks behind us. So the stage they're currently over there is they've now watched the weddings, the honeymoons and the first dinner party. Now, obviously, I'm from the UK.

39.157 - 42.68 Joshua Fox

My family still live over there and my 63 year old mum is mad into the show.

Chapter 2: How popular is Married At First Sight Australia in the UK?

42.7 - 56.6 Joshua Fox

So I've decided to make her my UK correspondent just to kind of get a vibe of, who people in England are loving, who they're hating. Are they feeling the same as we felt at that time? So mum thinks I'm about to phone her now just to get her thoughts on, you know, who she's loving and hating so far.

57.201 - 74.386 Joshua Fox

And what she doesn't realize is I'm going to have Katie waiting on the line ready for mum to do a impromptu interview with her. Because mum used to tell me she always wanted to be a journalist growing up, but she never was. Or at least I think she, someone told me they wanted to be a journalist and I think it was my mum, but it might not have been.

74.908 - 83.584 Joshua Fox

But that's basically the setup of why I'm getting to interview these people. So I hope it was her who said that. It might be, ah, actually, I think it was my auntie who said that.

Chapter 3: What role does Joshua's mum play in the podcast?

84.907 - 87.632 Joshua Fox

Ah, it'll be fine anyway. All right, so I'm going to phone my mum now.

0

94.48 - 95.222 Christine

Hello, hello.

0

95.282 - 97.287 Joshua Fox

Hello, Christine. How are you doing?

0

98.189 - 101.577 Christine

I'm all right, yeah. I've just started watching that protection.

0

102.319 - 106.749 Joshua Fox

Mum, this is your first kind of episode, your first job as the UK correspondent.

106.91 - 110.117 Christine

All right, OK. Just let me put this on pause.

110.839 - 112.523 Joshua Fox

Yeah, pause in the telly would be good.

115.996 - 119.002 Christine

Right. Come on, that can't do it.

119.643 - 123.03 Joshua Fox

Well, Mum, we're recording a podcast. We need quiet.

Chapter 4: What are the initial thoughts of Joshua's mum about the show?

218.763 - 227.391 Christine

I'm a very young 63-year-old, and my friends are younger, so... Well, I do have a surprise for you in this podcast.

0

227.411 - 233.177 Joshua Fox

Oh, come on. You're about to interview Katie. No, I'm not. She's on the line waiting.

0

234.298 - 238.922 Christine

No, Josh, don't do this to me, please. You said you wouldn't do this.

0

240.624 - 245.008 Joshua Fox

No, Katie just wants to come on and say hello to England.

0

245.343 - 250.215 Christine

Yeah, England. I'm sat in my bungalow in Cleveland.

251.879 - 259.196 Joshua Fox

That's funny. You can say that. Before I connect her, can you think of a couple of good questions for her?

259.216 - 267.06 Christine

No, not really. Say go fucking get it. Yeah, she's nice. Well, why is she going on a show like that? She can find a father anyway. Oh, right.

267.9 - 268.982 Joshua Fox

That's dad in the background.

269.062 - 270.183 Christine

Yeah, yeah.

Chapter 5: What unexpected twist happens during the interview?

356.124 - 376.567 Unknown

It was an interesting process for sure for him to be able to get to that point. And, yeah, I have no hard feelings. I think given what I've seen, he, you know, fooled a lot of people. Yeah, exactly.

0

376.587 - 381.858 Christine

You definitely did and you deserve somebody so much nicer.

0

381.878 - 392.58 Unknown

I think so too, yeah. I just want somebody who, you know, can see past all the superficial stuff and really connect with the things that matter, you know.

0

393.134 - 397.241 Christine

Oh, you just need somebody who's genuine, a nice bloke, that's it.

0

397.261 - 398.623 Unknown

Yeah, yeah, exactly.

398.703 - 399.965 Christine

And somebody who appreciates you.

399.985 - 402.83 Unknown

Any English for me? A nice English gentleman?

402.85 - 411.524 Christine

Yeah, we're going to ship you off to England. We're going to take you for a night out with me and my friends. Oh, right. And we're going to fix you up with somebody really nice.

411.544 - 417.454 Unknown

Yeah, sounds good. You probably have a better chance of picking up men than me. Look out, England, here I come.

Chapter 6: What questions does Joshua suggest for his mum to ask Katie?

757.17 - 757.57 Christine

Okay. Okay.

0

758.14 - 767.347 Joshua Fox

Yeah, you wanted to say something about Elliot, did you? Because you're two weeks in, so at the minute, you hate Tim, love Katie, and then the other one you probably have strong thoughts for is Elliot.

0

768.59 - 780.268 Christine

Yeah, Elliot. No. God's gifts to women. Yeah, he's a good-looking guy and he knows that. I don't really know why he's put himself up for the show anyway.

0

780.709 - 790.185 Joshua Fox

Would you be surprised if I told you that the point we're at now in the show, we're now kind of all big fans of Elliot and he's actually the funniest person to follow on TikTok?

0

791.227 - 797.277 Christine

What? Wow. Well, Elliot's gone missing in the show where I'm up to.

797.392 - 801.158 Joshua Fox

And what do you think of Big Dave, the kind of six foot seven tattooed bloke?

801.418 - 809.771 Christine

Oh, I like Dave, and I like... Yeah, you won't like Dave in a few weeks. Yeah, they come across really nice, nice guys.

810.191 - 816.22 Joshua Fox

Yeah, you won't like Dave in a few weeks. Pardon? You won't like Dave in a few weeks.

817.422 - 818.784 Christine

Oh, will I not? Right, okay.
