Married At First Sight stars Ella Ding and Domenica Calarco have launched a new weekly podcast, Sit with Us, distributed, hosted, and monetised by Acast.
Ding and Calarco shot to fan-favourite stardom on Channel Nine’s infamous dating show, Married at First Sight (MAFS).
Sit With Us will unpack the friends’ life after MAFS, revealing the real stories behind the headlines, covering everything from dating to daily life.
Calarco, co-host of Sit With Us, said: “Although I didn’t find lasting, romantic love on Married at First Sight, I ended up with something better. A forever friendship with Ella. The fans have been calling out for us to do a podcast and I can’t wait for them to come along this journey with us.
“Between Ella and I, we’ve done countless media interviews but we’ve really never got to tell our story and share our perspectives on the headlines. Joining the Acast Creator Network gives us an uncensored platform to do so. Everyone is welcome to Sit With Us.”
Ding, co-host of Sit With Us, added: “We’ll be discussing everything. Our conversations won’t be censored. Our listeners can expect lots of laughs, realness and, let’s be honest, a little controversy.”
Guy Scott-Wilson, creator network director, Acast Australia and New Zealand, said: “The interest we’ve seen in Dom and Ella’s podcast has been phenomenal. Sit with Us was already charting in the top three podcasts before the first episode had even dropped.
“By joining the Acast Creator Network, Dom and Ella are now in full control of their brand and are able to monetise the richly engaging content they produce, on their own terms. We can’t wait to see their show take off,” he added.
As part of its commitment to the open podcast ecosystem, Acast will make Sit with Us accessible to listeners on all podcast platforms, including Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Amazon Music, Google Podcasts, Samsung Free, and more.
