About the podcast

Rugby League star Marcelo Montoya is a clean freak who makes sure everything in his life is ”just so”. His wife Tayla thrives on annoying her husband with her form of hilarious disorder, constantly keeping him on his toes. Once they start talking, the conversation could end up anywhere. Join in as The Montoya’s lift the curtain on the life and relationship of Aussie imports assimilating into New Zealand as a newly married couple. Think Keeping Up with the Kardashians crossed with Modern Family and tune in for the podcast you never knew you needed. Follow: @themontoyaspodcast on TikTok and Instagram About The Hosts: Tayla Montoya is an ex-cheerleader with her roots from a large Italian Australian family, with all the passion and fire that comes with that. Most importantly, she is like that friend at the BBQ that is constantly surprising the group with a new questionable take, internet-based obsession or just something to annoy her husband. Marcelo Montoya is a Fijian Australian professional rugby league player and brings insight into what it actually means to be a professional sportsman. He is a little bit bogan, and a whole lot of a perfectionist. He strives for everything in his life to be centered and deliberate so he can perform at the highest level, while contending with his wife’s need to try and throw him off balance.

    The Montoyas are invited onto a $90 million superyacht, where Marcelo makes an unforgettable impression on the bathroom. Tayla would like to apologise to everyone who had to use it afterwards.

    At the gym crèche, the twins reject The Wiggles, Ms Rachel and Rockabye Bear. Tayla knows exactly what they’d rather watch: the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show. Marcelo isn’t sold on the idea.

    Back to School returns with what should be a simple question about chickens and sheep. Tayla’s maths takes a turn when she starts counting a chicken’s wings as legs and suddenly everyone’s debating whether chickens have arms.

    Tayla’s new sunrise alarm clock has birdsong, a glowing light and a very convenient snooze button. Then she takes a spectacular tumble at home—only for the twins to ask for a biscuit and a dummy while she’s still on the floor.

    What’s the smallest thing that’s ever put you off someone? The Montoyas weigh up barefoot first dates, Velcro wallets and a man who couldn’t even scare a pigeon.

    A listener’s boyfriend tries to sweep her off her feet while she’s holding a ceramic plate. The romantic gesture ends with him missing half a front tooth—and the Montoyas have questions about whose fault that really was.

    The Montoyas check in on their money-saving challenge and uncover some spectacular spending regrets. One parent paid $9,000 for concert tickets, only for her daughter to sleep through the show.

    We also have a very special guest on the show, Jazz Tevaga who joins the couch fresh from a grand final win. Celebrations went so long that his partner had to pack his bags for the trip to play for Samoa and he reveals he played much of the final with impaired vision after a finger to the eye.

    Then Jazz relives the night he answered Marcelo’s phone while Tayla was trying to reach him. He thought he could smooth things over. He thought wrong.

    Date night at Luna Park turns into survival mode when Marcelo abandons Tayla with a double-jointed clown. So much for sticking together when things get scary.

    Tayla hears a whisper in a Nicki Minaj video and dives straight down a conspiracy rabbit hole. Is Nicki a body double, or has Tayla just watched the clip too many times?

    This week’s Uncomfortable Moment comes from a pregnant listener’s five-pound bathroom disaster. It involves an enema, her husband’s best friend and a mop.

    Tayla has watched the Victoria’s Secret Fashion Show reveal roughly 35 times and still gets emotional over its $50 million fantasy bra. Marcelo struggles to understand why she’s crying over someone walking down a runway in expensive underwear and thinks the money could have been put to much better use doing anything else at all.

    Tayla shares some of the worst workplace mistakes people still think about years later, from telling a cancer patient to “enjoy the rest of your days” to promising a double amputee they’ll be “back on their feet in no time.” One worker even congratulated someone on their retirement in their funeral card it just gets better and better.

    This week’s Uncomfortable Moment brought to you by the good folks at Budgie Smuggler comes from a listener whose drunk ex-girlfriend had an accident in his bed. Years later, he still can’t forget the smell or what he had to do afterwards.

    The Montoyas react to a bride walking down the aisle beside a public swimming pool filled with strangers watching the ceremony. Tayla thinks the venue should have closed the pool, while Marcelo argues the other guests paid good money for their holiday. If you want complete privacy, apparently you need to hire the entire resort or get married on a private island.

    Tayla reveals it took four attempts to pass her driving test, including one attempt where she crashed into a pole before even leaving the car park. Her former driving instructor then calls into Triple M and confirms every lesson was an adventure. Now Tayla and Marcelo have agreed to retake the test and finally discover who is actually the better driver.

    This week’s What We’re Invested In, thanks to Blue Wealth Property, is the new flying Tesla car. Marcelo is impressed, but Tayla has questions: Does it come with its own ramp? Do you need a pilot’s licence? And if she already struggles with gates, garages and hedges, should she really be allowed anywhere near one?

    A footy journalist shares a player’s appreciation post for his wife and asks followers whether he’s “punching.” The post sparks a debate about whether partners should be dragged into online commentary, and Tayla and Marcelo weigh in on whether it crossed the line.

    Tayla convinces her mum to save money by doing her own nails, which goes brilliantly until one disappears into her dad’s salad. Surely that couldn’t happen twice? A few days later, another nail turns up in a restaurant dessert. At this point, Marcelo thinks it might be deliberate.

    Down the Thread Hole asks for the most unhinged things guests have ever done inside someone else’s home. Sleeping with the host’s girlfriend, leaving a used condom on a Bible, installing a hidden bathroom camera and leaving a trail of diarrhoea through the kitchen are just the beginning. Tayla also reveals why one childhood friend was permanently banned after a visit to her house.

    The Montoyas launch their first Monday episode in front of a live audience! One man has hard launched his divorce on Instagram, complete with an FAQ explaining what happened, who gets the pets and whether people can still invite them both to events. Marcelo is convinced there’s more to the story. Was there cheating, swinging or an opera career that destroyed the marriage?

    Marcelo finally abandons his dream of owning a Nokia and buys a new iPhon, but the real trouble begins when he pays $295 for two phone cases and a screen protector. Tayla nearly turns the twins’ stroller around to demand a refund, lucky for the unamed store the twins were hungry otherwise it would of been on.

    Tayla discovers the most unhinged ways people are using ChatGPT. It’s being used as a relationship referee, personal shopper, lawyer and even to recreate conversations with a friend who has passed away. Then someone admits using it to fabricate evidence after getting caught cheating. Maybe artificial intelligence has officially gone too far!

According to the boys, the kids want their mums anyway very convenient!

    Marcelo makes the genius decision to leave his wallet on top of the car before driving away. By the time he realises, it’s gone and someone has already tried to spend $800 on Amazon gift cards. Tayla is furious, Marcelo is surprisingly calm and, forget the bank cards, he’s mostly mourning the Burberry wallet Tayla bought him!

    Finally, Tayla has one simple request: Marcelo needs to stop tightening every lid like he’s competing in a strongman competition. The twins’ water bottles are impossible to open, and it’s bringing back memories of the time Tayla cried at 4am because she couldn’t get the lid off her blender. Marcelo’s solution? Get stronger. Helpful as always!

    Marcelo arrives home to tell Tayla he's scored two free coffees, only for Tayla to discover they’ve come with a very expensive parking fine. He barely accepts that he broke the rules, but what he can’t accept is being caught by a parking ranger wearing a cowboy hat while driving a hybrid RAV4. If you’re going to dress like Crocodile Dundee you should at least arrive on horseback.

    An innocent trip to the playground turns into Tayla beefing with a five-year-old after he tells one of the twins to shut up and stop copying him. When he returns to order the family off a park bench, Tayla decides she’s had enough and stands up for her girls once and for all.

    Plus, the Montoyas reveal the laziest things people have ever done. From paying for a remote control app to avoid leaving the couch, to wearing sunglasses in bed because turning off the light feels like too much work, Tayla and Marcelo discover that some people’s laziness knows absolutely no limits.

    The Montoyas arrive slightly dusty after Marcelo’s final Bulldogs awards night as a player, where Tayla enjoys her newfound NRLW friends and Marcelo walks face-first into a glass door. Then it’s back to reality and Marcelo’s new nine-to-five life, although his colleagues may already be regretting it after he starts calling them before their working day has even begun.

    Tayla reveals how close the family came to losing Louis after he squeezed through a tiny gap and ended up stranded in the middle of a busy road in Cronulla. A stranger stops traffic to rescue him, Ralph suddenly remembers he’s a German Shepherd and absolute chaos follows. One dog nearly gets run over, the other gets kicked, Tayla loses track of the twins thankfully everyone is SAFE.

    Plus, Tayla warns women about the reported GTA 6 “girlfriend mode,” where players can take a virtual partner shopping, buy her flowers and keep the relationship alive. Is having a girlfriend inside a video game actually cheating, or are people taking pixels on a screen far too seriously? The Montoyas attempt to settle the internet’s newest relationship debate.

    Marcelo attends his nephew’s rugby union grand final expecting nothing more than a giant game of kick tennis. Instead, he leaves questioning everything he thought he knew about union and wishing he’d played it himself as a young fella. The Montoyas also debate whether children need to experience losing or if everyone should walk away with a participation award.

    A survey reveals the five things couples fight about most, and naturally, Tayla and Marcelo manage to tick off most of the list. This leads them back to their latest argument: whether Lebanese bread that’s been sitting in the fridge can still be called fresh. The disagreement ends with silent treatment, separate bedrooms and, somehow, one of the best nights they’ve both had in ages.

    Plus, the Montoyas discover an $800 toothbrush and have plenty of questions. For that price, it shouldn’t just clean Marcelo’s teeth—it should straighten them, build the family a new house and get the twins ready for school. Is it the future of dental care or has the world officially lost the plot?

    Marcelo returns from his first wellbeing conference with plenty of new knowledge, no laptop and one very important question: why do the birds on Tangalooma Island sound like women screaming? He also nearly writes himself off on an ATV, proving once again that retirement hasn’t made him any less reckless.

    Tayla calls Marcelo out for his worst habit whenever he’s away: FaceTiming her late at night, then handing the phone to complete strangers while she’s braless, in her pyjamas and completely unprepared to meet his new best mates.

    The Montoyas unpack the AFL cheating scandal that has everyone talking. Should someone’s private life cost them a leadership role? Is cheating with your wife’s best friend ever just a “mistake”? And why are the two women receiving more attention than the man who was actually married?

    Plus, Tayla and Marcelo head back to school for a general knowledge showdown. With questions covering oceans, maths, planets and the human body, it quickly becomes clear the twins may need to find someone else to help with their homework.

    After receiving a flood of DMs and comments following last week's episode, Tayla and Marcelo realised they'd done the one thing they never intended to do... offend their listeners. So this week, they issue a heartfelt public apology from the bottom of their hearts. Will they learn from their mistakes? Fingers Crossed. Will it last? Well... at least for this episode.

    Tayla also celebrated a huge milestone in the gym, hitting her very first PB. It turns out all she needed was a new gym buddy who actually knows what they're doing. After years of convincing herself she'd been training hard, Tayla has come to the shocking realisation that she may have just been turning up. As it happens, nothing brings out her competitive side quite like having an audience in every single aspect of her life.

    Plus, thanks to Blue Wealth Property, we finally reach the last few pages of An Empyrean Awakening. After weeks of twists, questionable acting, and Marcelo's ever-growing collection of accents, the masterpiece comes to an end. Tayla finally unveils an accent of her own, while Marcelo delivers a closing performance as "The Guru" that leaves the door wide open for a sequel. If you think Tayla should write another script—or you've got ideas for the next one—let us know in the comments.

    Before we even managed to hit record this week, Tayla somehow found herself in a battle with... a boulder. After one final mirror check before heading into the studio, she confidently flung open the door without looking and was immediately met with an almighty bang. Her only defence? "Just be grateful it wasn't a car." Safe to say, tensions were running high before the microphones were even switched on.

    Tayla also expanded her culinary repertoire this week by buying a slow cooker and whipping up a beef ragu that Marcelo rated a perfect 10/10. In what should have been a rare and wholesome moment, Marcelo finally gave Tayla a genuine compliment about her cooking. Unfortunately, it only lasted a few seconds before he pointed out that the only thing slower than the slow cooker... was Tayla herself. So close to a heartfelt moment.

    Plus, thanks to Blue Wealth Property, Tayla's high school script An Empyrean Awakening returns for another chapter. Marcelo dusts off his ever-growing collection of accents, unveils one he's been secretly practising, and somehow the script gets even more chaotic. And if all goes to plan, Tayla might finally give an accent a crack herself next week.

    Welcome to the very first episode of Couples Couch. For our debut, we're joined by two very special guests, Jai and Beri Arrow, who sat down with us just five hours after saying "I do" to hard-launch married life.

    Together, we talk about how they first met, the journey that brought them together, becoming parents, and the moments that have shaped their relationship.

    Jai and Beri share, with incredible honesty, the journey that led to Jai's diagnosis of Motor Neurone Disease. Jai opens up about the moment something clicked after attending a Fight MND fundraiser, the conversations that followed, and the testing that ultimately confirmed what he feared. It's an emotional and deeply personal conversation, but one that's filled with courage, perspective, and the remarkable attitude Jai continues to face every day with.

    We're incredibly grateful to Jai and Beri for trusting us with their story, and we hope it helps bring greater awareness to Motor Neurone Disease and the people and families living with it.

    If you're in a position to support the fight against Motor Neurone Disease, you can donate here:https://support.fightmnd.org.au/donate

    You can also show your support this Jai July as the NRL and the South Sydney Rabbitohs host the "World's Biggest Birthday Party" during their clash with the Newcastle Knights at Accor Stadium on Sunday, July 12, celebrating Jai's 31st birthday while raising awareness for FightMND. Every conversation, donation and show of support makes a difference.

    Last week, Tayla made an appearance on the Bye Round fundraiser stream for Jai Arrow and, after discovering the magic of a bottle of red mixed with Diet Coke (now known as "The Shire Sangria"), things escalated extremely quickly. What started as a fun night out ended with an Uber ride home and Marcelo being woken up by the unmistakable sounds that no sober person ever wants to hear in the middle of the night.

    If that wasn't enough, the rest of the week didn't get much better. After going out to grab a coffee, Tayla somehow turned a simple café run into a public spectacle. Attempting to parallel park a large SUV outside a busy Cronulla café, she quickly found herself with a growing audience, traffic backing up all around, four failed attempts, a couple of kerbed tyres, and one innocent bystander who copped the full force of her frustration.

    Plus, thanks to Blue Wealth Property, Tayla's university script returns — and somehow it's even more out the gate than before. The mysterious Fijian woman is back, new characters enter the story, Marcelo abandons the script and a Kiwi accent makes its debut. At this point, we're all just along for the ride.

    After Marcelo announced his retirement last week, Susan Lombardi decided it was her responsibility to break the news to Tayla's Nono and Nona. Unfortunately, instead of keeping things simple and telling the truth, she turned the whole thing into a dramatic Italian soap opera, leaving poor Nona in tears and everyone else wondering how things escalated so quickly.


    Tayla tries once again to convince Marcelo to join her at the gym next year so they can finally work out together and, more importantly, so she can prove she actually works hard when she's there. Marcelo isn't buying it for a second. Instead, he launches into a dramatic re-enactment of the time he walked into the lounge to find Tayla doing a Tabata workout while simultaneously watching reality TV. Surprisingly, nobody was shocked by this revelation.


    After last week's cliffhanger, it's finally time. Tayla's university script has arrived. Titled "An Empyrean Awakening", Tayla and Marcelo bring a scene to life on the podcast and quickly discover some very interesting similarities between the story and their own lives. Including one particular character whose name is a little too close to home.

    Firstly, a massive shoutout to Voli K who recently reached out to collaborate with the podcast and has actually made music specifically for The Montoyas! You'll hear his work in today's intro and we absolutely love it. Huge thanks to him. At this rate, when we finally do a live show, we might even have live music from the man himself.

    Tayla's friend came over this week and immediately expressed concern that Tayla still hasn't booked her nose surgery. Why? Because she'd gone down a rabbit hole researching what happens to chronic mouth breathers over time and apparently it's not pretty. The biggest concern is developing a recessed chin which, according to the internet, is every mouth breather's worst nightmare. Will this finally be the thing that gets Tayla to book the surgery? The jury's still out.

    Meanwhile, on his day off, Marcelo found himself living out one of his biggest fanboy moments after meeting one of his Top 3 celebrities, Neil Whitaker, at a mental health lunch. If you've listened to the podcast for a while, you'll know Marcelo's obsession with all things real estate. Not only did he get to meet Neil, but he was also bold enough to ask him for a personalised video message for a special someone... and the result is absolutely legendary.

    Plus, The Montoyas have a MAJOR announcement to share in this episode. Any guesses? A second sausage dog? We've finally landed a sponsor? We're adding another weekly episode? Drop your predictions in the comments and tune in to find out.

    Marcelo has never been shy about his dislike of Tayla being glued to her phone, and this week he finally gets some answers. After discovering most of her screen time is spent firing an endless stream of questions at ChatGPT, Marcelo asks the question we're all thinking: "What are the most outrageous things you've ever asked ChatGPT?" Tayla bravely opens the vault, but would you be willing to share your search history with the world?

    Meanwhile, Tayla joins the 5am gym crowd and quickly finds herself in a very unexpected situation. While struggling through a workout, a friendly stranger offers to oil one of the machines to make it run smoother. Assuming he'd wandered over from the maintenance team, Tayla gladly accepts the help… only to discover he's actually just a local gym hero, quietly roaming the floor helping those in need with a can of WD-40. A true man of the people!

    Plus, we may have received one of the greatest calls ever on the Ass Leaker Hotline. In the middle of a truly unfortunate situation, one listener decided this was exactly the place to share their story — and we're very grateful they did.

    Thank you to everyone who has joined our Patreon, we’ve just hit a massive milestone of 1,000 subscribers!! In today’s episode the Montoyas are drawing out three lucky “ass leakers” who will get to sit in on a recording soon, well…when we can finally nail down Marcelo's schedule. The Montoyas are truly grateful for every “multi tasker” and “ass leaker” who supports the show! We have big plans for 2026 so keep and eye out on more announcements coming your way.

    Tayla woke up on the wrong side of the bed, we all know how that feels! Marcelo started with good intentions and decided to clean Tayla’s car. Unfortunately the clean freak in him couldn’t ignore the chaos he found inside, Louie the sausage dog had vomited and the twins' snacks were littered all over the place. Instead of using his better judgment and ignoring the situation, Marcelo confronted Tayla… I’m sure you can guess her response!

    Just like your aunty on Facebook marketplace, the Montoyas have been scammed! There’s a fake Facebook page “TheMontoyas291” with a bigger audience than the real page, how does that even happen!? The page has been reported as being fake but we need your help, please report it on Facebook and if you don’t already follow the real page help us out!

    Marcelo shares who he’s supporting in the State of Origin, the NSW Blues. He even has a team shirt and a special match worn jersey from Mitch Barnett himself hung in the background. In the process of sharing his love for the team, Tayla discovers she has a new ick…

    Luke Lombardi’s appearance on the show last week has ruffled some serious feathers in the Lombardi household! Sue wants a second chance and has been preparing her show notes…the problem is Tayla and Marcelo aren’t sure, they thought Sue wasn’t being her “true authentic self” last time. In comes Tayla’s father, Ange, he’s also vying for a slot on the show to share his truth. Stay tuned to find out who the Montoyas have confirmed as the next family guest!

    After playing again in the Bulldogs last week, Marcelo’s body had a few aches and pains and he needed some good old Fijian treatment. His mum Litiana, came through to save the day. Her treatment this time was a very creative solution involving a trip to Fiji and holy water!?
