Married at First Sight

What is his name? Like-

Paul C. Brunson, a professional matchmaker, relationship coach, author, and longtime expert on Married at First Sight UK.

He is also Tinder's Head of Global Research.

Why do I not have that job? That probably pays pretty well, right? Tinder's Head of Global Research?

He's a person that does interviews and is like, "On t-" Wait, what even accent does he have? I'm making everyone be on Love is Blind UK.

I think British.

Married at First Sight UK.

Is he British, too? Yeah, he's-

Like, he's not a doctor, he's not a marriage or, he's not, like, a marriage, uh, therapist or anything like that.

He was one of the, quote unquote, "experts" on Married at First Sight UK, but it's not like where Dr. Pepper was a sociologist and even Dr. Lisa Paz, she's a licensed marriage and family therapist, I believe, right? But, like, we have these two, like, quote unquote, "experts" calling women holes, okay? So basically, they're making fun of Felipe and how he wants to sleep with everyone and their mother, and they're just like, "How many holes are you putting it in?" And then Lisa, Dr.

Lisa, ends up saying, "I really hope that you're going to end up finding a woma- a woman with three holes." What the fuck are you saying, right? Like, what kind of age are we in where we're referring to women as holes? Like, Paul is literally saying, "How many holes are you sticking your penis in?" Like, I see that he's trying to be derogatory towards Felipe in, like, a flippant way, but you're being derogatory towards women.

Women, right? Like, he's making it seem as though all women are, are holes.

They had to take Married at First Sight off the air here because of all the abuse allegations.

Meanwhile, in the streets.

I might be checking out that Married at First Sight UK edition.

The irony of that.

That's crazy.

"...to keep the identity of their future spouse a secret.

The formal paperwork is typically signed immediately after the wedding ceremony takes place rather than before." And then it says, "While international versions like Married At First Sight Australia or Married At First Sight UK use symbolic commitment ceremonies instead of legal marriages, the US flagship series results in real legally binding unions.

For season 20, couples who chose to divorce on or after decision day still had to go through a formal legal divorce process."

Damn.

Okay.

Oh, yeah, she was on Married at, at First Sight, um, UK, season eight.

I don't know anything about her, but yeah.

Okay.

Oh, wait.

Maribor's first couple spent eight to 10 intensive weeks living together full time, sharing an apartment, going on a honeymoon and filming up to four to six days a week with production hours lasting long into the day or the night.

Okay, so you're all in a

week.

Welcome back to Not Married to This.

Today, we are joined by the two amazing experts from season 20 of Married at First Sight.

Please welcome Dr. Lisa and Paul.

Hi, guys.

I have just binged the show.

Oh, wow.

And it's my first season watching Married at First Sight.

I'm obsessed.

A Court of Splintered Harmony and a Court of Forgotten Melody.

Are we cooked? [laughs] Now every time I say "vibe" or "cooked", I'm gonna think of Sean telling Adam on Married at First Sight that he's low IQ, low emotional intelligence, because he uses these words.

And I think that he's just gotten into a habit, and it's so hard to break.

I remember when I lived with Summer and Oscar, and they used to call everyone Chuck.

But it's like I'm getting work done.

I'm just not getting anything else done.

[lips smack] Um, Paul Brunson, who is the expert on Married at First Sight, they talked about, um, him and his counterpart on the show, how they've been married for over 20 years, and I was like, "Oh, I kinda wanna go look at his family." So I pulled him up on Instagram, and I did a little Google search on him.

He's a world-renowned matchmaker and relationship coach, but he is not a therapist, which surprised me.
