MAFS Funny Podcast

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.

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.

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.

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?

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.
