Transcript
- 0:02Speaker 1: Hey that folks. It is Saturday, June twentieth, and Love
- 0:06Speaker 1: Island Season eight, episode fifteen is in the books. What
- 0:11Speaker 1: did we learn? You're a hole? No, you're a hole?
- 0:15Speaker 1: And with that, welcome to this episode of Aby and DJ.
- 0:19Speaker 1: What there was? Okay, Well, there's so much in this
- 0:22Speaker 1: episode to get to what give me your top three highlights?
- 0:28Speaker 1: Don't get into them, just list them. What stood out
- 0:30Speaker 1: of this episode?
- 0:31Speaker 2: Well, it could be a low light for me, not
- 0:33Speaker 2: necessarily even a highlight. Stood out that they're really good
- 0:37Speaker 2: at teasing stuff that didn't actually happen, like we thought
- 0:40Speaker 2: there was going to be this huge brew haha. And
- 0:42Speaker 2: then Brice apparently has a foot fetish that I didn't
- 0:45Speaker 2: need to know about.
- 0:46Speaker 1: Oh wow, that.
- 0:47Speaker 2: Stood out okay, and then I'm here to watch the
- 0:51Speaker 2: explosion between an I and Casey.
- 0:54Speaker 1: Okay, that has been building, that's been bubbling. Can I
- 0:56Speaker 1: ask this? Why does it feel? Maybe to me there
- 1:01Speaker 1: seems to be I don't know if it's intentional, but
- 1:03Speaker 1: it's gotten gossipy in this episode, like stirring up the
- 1:07Speaker 1: pot that was unnecessarily Why are you doing that to
- 1:09Speaker 1: your friend? You know what's gonna do to her? And
- 1:11Speaker 1: let me talk behind you, But it seemed like some
- 1:13Speaker 1: stuff was going high school stuff was going on in
- 1:14Speaker 1: this episod Baybe have you lived.
- 1:16Speaker 2: I always tell this to the girls, You're never out
- 1:19Speaker 2: of high school. It doesn't matter how old you are,
- 1:22Speaker 2: you are always going to be in high school. And
- 1:24Speaker 2: gossip is always going to be a part of any conversation,
- 1:28Speaker 2: and especially at the villa where you've got so many
- 1:33Speaker 2: people kissing one another, trying to figure out who's loyal
- 1:37Speaker 2: to whom, and everyone wants to try and basically there's
- 1:42Speaker 2: a tribalism going on between the girls, between the boys,
- 1:45Speaker 2: between the couples, and it's just messy, and it really
- 1:50Speaker 2: is truly what happens in real life. It's just an
- 1:52Speaker 2: extreme version of it.
- 1:53Speaker 1: Okay, first, I'll say we'll get to this. They brought
- 1:57Speaker 1: some nasty stuff back in this episode that I absolutely hated,
- 2:00Speaker 1: absolutely hate it. But fine, and you saw an oracle
- 2:03Speaker 1: we'll get into as well. Yes, you saw that. We're
- 2:05Speaker 1: not the only ones gonna miscape Gonna. I'm really uh,
- 2:10Speaker 1: I'm really bothered. Even more so now about Gabe. We
- 2:12Speaker 1: liked him because he was authentic throughout. He's a Latin
- 2:15Speaker 1: love a boy. His English wasn't the best. He expressed
- 2:19Speaker 1: himself better in Portuguese. He grew on us and he
- 2:21Speaker 1: broke down crying when Beatrice left, So to see him
- 2:26Speaker 1: handle it the well as well as he did. This
- 2:28Speaker 1: is how the episode started, and most of you listening
- 2:30Speaker 1: did see. But he'd started out by by letting him
- 2:34Speaker 1: have his little say after they had dumped him off
- 2:36Speaker 1: the island.
- 2:37Speaker 2: Yeah, and look, he was essentially accused of being an
- 2:40Speaker 2: f boy, and it was confusing because he had been
- 2:43Speaker 2: in two relationships.
- 2:45Speaker 3: He didn't dump Beatrice.
- 2:47Speaker 2: She got voted off basically by America, That's what happened,
- 2:51Speaker 2: and he was put into a couple with Jims. So literally,
- 2:55Speaker 2: any of the choices that he made weren't made by him,
- 3:01Speaker 2: so it's bizarre. They said he had a lustful energy,
- 3:05Speaker 2: doesn't everybody? I think Zach was like, what do you mean?
- 3:08Speaker 2: Or Casey even said like, we're all lusting.
- 3:10Speaker 1: Well, yeah, he was a great All.
- 3:13Speaker 3: Have lust in our hearts, Like how is Gabe any difference?
- 3:17Speaker 1: But they made points. Now this is where and I
- 3:20Speaker 1: know it was the guy girl thing, but the guys
- 3:22Speaker 1: were making, come on robes a decent point here that
- 3:26Speaker 1: it got They were shocked and upset when they heard
- 3:30Speaker 1: his name called. He was going to get voted out.
- 3:32Speaker 1: When they heard their logic for it, they really started
- 3:36Speaker 1: spiraling because it doesn't make any It really doesn't make
- 3:40Speaker 1: I still don't understand.
- 3:41Speaker 3: Do you think that.
- 3:42Speaker 2: The girls regretted their decision and just tried to defend
- 3:46Speaker 2: it because they felt bad about it.
- 3:47Speaker 1: That's why the the tease was what it was and
- 3:52Speaker 1: why there was a little fighting at the beginning of
- 3:55Speaker 1: this episode. Bro If they immediately got mad at the
- 3:57Speaker 1: guys for just being bothered that their boy was leaving,
- 4:00Speaker 1: this is where relationship stuff comes in. Just the fact
- 4:04Speaker 1: that they showed emotion at what the women had done
- 4:07Speaker 1: resulted in the women getting mad at them for showing
- 4:10Speaker 1: that emotion. What do we do with that?
- 4:12Speaker 3: Well, isn't that a lot of our fights?
- 4:14Speaker 1: All of them, every single one of them. Every fight
- 4:19Speaker 1: is that thing. So I robes so break it down
- 4:22Speaker 1: when you can step back from a distance. They made
- 4:24Speaker 1: a decision that upset the Fellas. Now the Fellaws could
- 4:29Speaker 1: have you could say bad reason, let's not even go
- 4:31Speaker 1: that far. But just them getting upset, Why can that
- 4:37Speaker 1: not be listened to?
- 4:39Speaker 3: Because they viewed it immediately as being.
- 4:44Speaker 2: Disloyal, okay, who the women felt like the men attacking
- 4:48Speaker 2: them or questioning their decision felt like a breach of trust.
- 4:52Speaker 1: Hey, let me a breach of trust to be upset
- 4:54Speaker 1: by a decision you made. See again, this is how
- 4:57Speaker 1: there's a.
- 4:58Speaker 2: Way disrespected, like respect our decision, respect how we came
- 5:01Speaker 2: about this choice.
- 5:02Speaker 1: This is what I'm saying. And there it is. And
- 5:04Speaker 1: this is where that's very much a woman's response and
- 5:06Speaker 1: your response when we're having these fights. You still won't
- 5:10Speaker 1: stop and let the guys be upset. You just came
- 5:14Speaker 1: back and said, well, yeah, we'll said you didn't respect.
- 5:18Speaker 1: It's a respect thing. Robes. You won't let them even
- 5:22Speaker 1: have an emotional reaction to their boy leaving, and you're
- 5:27Speaker 1: nodding it. Yep, that's right.
- 5:30Speaker 3: It's what we all saw play out.
- 5:32Speaker 1: It's a weird thing to watch, Robes. This is fascinating
- 5:34Speaker 1: relationship stuff.
- 5:35Speaker 2: It is, and it's funny. It does seem to be
- 5:37Speaker 2: a I don't know what it is if it's socially
- 5:41Speaker 2: how we're conditioned, if it's just a girl and a
- 5:43Speaker 2: guy thing, a Venus and Mars thing. I did think
- 5:46Speaker 2: the guys were able to bring the temperature down really well.
- 5:49Speaker 2: I was impressed. They just said, okay, let's hug it
- 5:52Speaker 2: out and they just moved on. Some things probably will
- 5:56Speaker 2: never be agreed upon.
- 5:59Speaker 1: And that's but I'm saying, Robes that there was a
- 6:02Speaker 1: conversation that didn't need to explode into brief anger. But
- 6:08Speaker 1: if that been outside in the real worldhere, the couple
- 6:11Speaker 1: has been together for two years, and that kind of like,
- 6:13Speaker 1: that's a different conversation. You made a decision that hurt me.
- 6:18Speaker 1: It upset me, and I'm upset about it, and I.
- 6:21Speaker 3: Don't like you're upset that you're upset about it.
- 6:24Speaker 1: That's the thing when someone does that man or woman
- 6:28Speaker 1: said I'm upset by something you just did. Don't explain
- 6:32Speaker 1: what you did, don't defend. That is absolutely listen to
- 6:37Speaker 1: why somebody is hurt. Just listen. Oh, I love it.
- 6:42Speaker 2: And then from there I loved how Corbin then explained
- 6:46Speaker 2: to Kenzie because he found out because he was up
- 6:48Speaker 2: on the chopping block too, so he wasn't a part
- 6:49Speaker 2: of the decision, but he found out later that the
- 6:52Speaker 2: boys were about to throw Kenzie off the island for
- 6:56Speaker 2: the exact same reason that the girls decided to Gabe,
- 7:01Speaker 2: and that's kind of legit.
- 7:04Speaker 1: They had numbers like you kiss four guys, he only
- 7:06Speaker 1: kissed two. Like they were calling her on her stuff, Robes.
- 7:11Speaker 1: That's a good point.
- 7:12Speaker 3: It was a good point, and she did not concede it.
- 7:16Speaker 1: Nope, she defended and deflected. You love saying that, and
- 7:19Speaker 1: it's so true what you all If you all don't
- 7:22Speaker 1: know that, Robes, I don't know where you got it,
- 7:24Speaker 1: and you but you've been saying it to me since
- 7:25Speaker 1: I've known you. But it's what people do oftentimes and
- 7:28Speaker 1: pay attention to it in a fight, defend and deflect.
- 7:32Speaker 1: If you say something to someone and their first thing
- 7:34Speaker 1: is to defend and then deflect, you know you're well, that's.
- 7:39Speaker 3: Not really fair. That's not what I did. But you
- 7:41Speaker 3: know what you did.
- 7:42Speaker 1: You did this defend and deflect sincere did it last episode, right,
- 7:46Speaker 1: Well you did bad stuff too.
- 7:48Speaker 3: You're no angel.
- 7:50Speaker 1: Defend and deflect.
- 7:51Speaker 3: It is human nature.
- 7:53Speaker 1: But keep it in your pocket so you'll notice when
- 7:55Speaker 1: you do it and other people defend and deflect.
- 7:58Speaker 3: It absolutely, But I did appreciate.
- 8:01Speaker 2: I thought it was so interesting and I actually thought
- 8:04Speaker 2: it was good that that Corbyn told Kenzie like, I don't.
- 8:08Speaker 3: I didn't feel like that was gossipy.
- 8:09Speaker 2: I felt like he wanted to let her know that, Hey,
- 8:13Speaker 2: your behavior was noticed as well, and you almost got
- 8:16Speaker 2: kicked off, kicked out of the villa.
- 8:18Speaker 1: And I was, I guess I was surprised, and maybe,
- 8:21Speaker 1: as I'm saying, I was like, oh, are you surprised?
- 8:23Speaker 1: So she kind of really defended herself in that in
- 8:28Speaker 1: a not a mature way. She was you could tell
- 8:31Speaker 1: you she's like, I'm.
- 8:32Speaker 2: Rusty, I'm not lustful, like she like that was the distinction.
- 8:36Speaker 2: And I'm sorry, I just heard you say you were
- 8:37Speaker 2: horny three times in the last episode, So I don't
- 8:40Speaker 2: know if that's not lustful, I.
- 8:42Speaker 3: Don't know what is.
- 8:44Speaker 1: Why do I know the last time she had sex,
- 8:46Speaker 1: I shouldn't she let us all know she's lustful.
- 8:50Speaker 2: So I think that's so funny that she immediately said
- 8:52Speaker 2: I'm not lustful.
- 8:54Speaker 3: So I also thought Corbyn handled that well as well.
- 8:56Speaker 2: Instead of continuing, he just said, babe, don't get defensive, Babe,
- 9:01Speaker 2: don't get defensive, and he just said, I'm just explaining
- 9:04Speaker 2: where their heads were, please don't take it so personally.
- 9:06Speaker 2: So and then he moved on and.
- 9:10Speaker 1: That was Corbyn's best moment since he's been on the show. Corven,
- 9:13Speaker 1: well done. He I think it was necessarily necessary, and
- 9:17Speaker 1: I think it was I think it was kind to
- 9:21Speaker 1: tell her that I do too. He wasn't betraying the
- 9:23Speaker 1: boys at all. Agreed that he showed me a lot
- 9:27Speaker 1: and I have really appreciated Corbyn and how he handled
- 9:30Speaker 1: that moment.
- 9:30Speaker 2: He grew on me because I thought he was honest,
- 9:33Speaker 2: but he was kind I like, and what he was
- 9:36Speaker 2: saying was hard to hear, if not even though it
- 9:39Speaker 2: was true, it was hard to hear, and he but
- 9:42Speaker 2: he I hate the idea of someone managing someone else,
- 9:45Speaker 2: but I do think when you're in a couple with someone,
- 9:47Speaker 2: you're in a relationship with someone, there has to be
- 9:49Speaker 2: some level of managing someone else's feelings to the extent
- 9:52Speaker 2: that even if you know it's a hard thing to hear,
- 9:55Speaker 2: still also saying, but I love you, and I just
- 9:57Speaker 2: thought you needed to know this. I know he didn't
- 9:59Speaker 2: say I love you because they're not in love, but
- 10:01Speaker 2: he writes a sentiment.
- 10:02Speaker 1: He recognized immediately that it wasn't being received well, and
- 10:06Speaker 1: he cut his losses.
- 10:09Speaker 3: That's a good way to put it.
- 10:10Speaker 1: Okay, Corbyn, that was well, really well done. I was
- 10:13Speaker 1: waiting for him to have a good moment, Like I
- 10:16Speaker 1: like that moment a lot.
- 10:17Speaker 2: Yes, And so we were like really into it and
- 10:19Speaker 2: we were just talking about how wonderful it's been not
- 10:22Speaker 2: to have too many or too much kissing.
- 10:25Speaker 3: And then we get another challenge.
- 10:28Speaker 1: What was it called the Swords and the Kings and
- 10:30Speaker 1: the Queens, and everyone gets to it's so funny.
- 10:32Speaker 2: It's like these are grown ass adults and they're getting
- 10:35Speaker 2: to play dress up and it's super.
- 10:36Speaker 3: Exciting to all of them. So they were in princess
- 10:40Speaker 3: costumes and the men were in like prince costumes and
- 10:43Speaker 3: they looked idiotic, but somehow they were all excited about
- 10:46Speaker 3: it because they're just that bored.
- 10:48Speaker 1: Yes, that's right, man. When a text message comes in,
- 10:51Speaker 1: it is the biggest moment ever.
- 10:53Speaker 2: Oh my god. It's like the door dash delivery when
- 10:55Speaker 2: you're starving. It's like the same exact reaction.
- 10:59Speaker 1: It's a lot of sitting around. Oh, I don't give
- 11:02Speaker 1: them give him a Nintendo.
- 11:05Speaker 2: They don't even have alcohol or anything to give them something.
- 11:08Speaker 1: Man.
- 11:09Speaker 3: I mean that's a good thing. Can you imagine if
- 11:11Speaker 3: they let them drink.
- 11:11Speaker 1: Sat around and oh, I watched that.
- 11:14Speaker 3: It's one drink a night or two drinks a night.
- 11:16Speaker 3: I think it's two drinks a night. I think that's
- 11:18Speaker 3: so smart.
- 11:19Speaker 2: But yes, even without any liquid courage, we got to
- 11:23Speaker 2: see the Islanders licking each other's toes, sucking toes, going
- 11:27Speaker 2: from one toe to the next. Some of the men
- 11:30Speaker 2: licked legs. It was repulsive and even Casey acknowledged it
- 11:34Speaker 2: was disgusting. I think he did say that, but Bryce
- 11:37Speaker 2: was so weirdly into it.
- 11:39Speaker 1: But the kissing came back, just swapping. I don't why
- 11:44Speaker 1: are they doing that now everybody's coupled up, Why are
- 11:46Speaker 1: you kissing?
- 11:47Speaker 3: Because they want drama.
- 11:48Speaker 2: The one guy gets to pick who the other guy
- 11:51Speaker 2: who's blindfold kisses whoever's girl?
- 11:54Speaker 3: And yes, and it did create drama. It did create drama.
- 11:58Speaker 2: Because you all so have these which islander basically isn't
- 12:03Speaker 2: being true to his princess or at which king? And
- 12:06Speaker 2: of course they picked Casey and we knew where this
- 12:09Speaker 2: was heading. So when we come back, we'll tell you
- 12:12Speaker 2: about the yes powder keg that is brewing between Casey
- 12:18Speaker 2: and Anaya. This one, I think is going to be explosive.
- 12:23Speaker 1: And and and.
- 12:31Speaker 2: Welcome back everyone to our Love Island edition of Amy
- 12:34Speaker 2: and TJ. And the episode fifteen ended with Trinity stir
- 12:42Speaker 2: in the pot with Anaya after she had just heard
- 12:45Speaker 2: that Casey possibly wasn't being true to his feelings once again.
- 12:50Speaker 2: Now she's all in her head spiraling and Trinity just
- 12:54Speaker 2: added gasoline to the fire.
- 12:57Speaker 1: Why why does she tell her this? She?
- 12:59Speaker 2: I do think Trinity's a nice person. I do think
- 13:02Speaker 2: she was trying to let her friend know what she
- 13:07Speaker 2: might be up against with case She might be trying
- 13:10Speaker 2: to protect her and make sure that yes, when either
- 13:13Speaker 2: new bombshells come in or they have those guys walk
- 13:16Speaker 2: into the villa when the boys go to Casa Moore,
- 13:19Speaker 2: Maybe she's trying to make sure her girl keeps her options.
- 13:22Speaker 1: Open, is my question. So Casey voted for Soul or
- 13:26Speaker 1: made an argument for Soul to stay yes.
- 13:30Speaker 3: And he was the only one of the boys who
- 13:32Speaker 3: wanted Soul to stay.
- 13:33Speaker 1: Okay, So let me ask you, just as an observer,
- 13:39Speaker 1: is that a problem? Is that an issue? Did Casey
- 13:43Speaker 1: do wrong? I guess what is? What? Do you see
- 13:47Speaker 1: the problem in what Casey did?
- 13:50Speaker 2: There's nothing wrong with what Casey did. If he wanted
- 13:53Speaker 2: to keep someone there because he thought she deserved a
- 13:55Speaker 2: fair shake, and maybe he thought he wanted a fair
- 13:58Speaker 2: shake with her, that's what the game is all. But
- 14:00Speaker 2: I also think that Anaya had every reason to feel
- 14:03Speaker 2: upset about that.
- 14:04Speaker 1: Oh there it is. There it is, and that's fine.
- 14:06Speaker 1: So this is going to once again cause they.
- 14:09Speaker 2: Have had too many of the same arguments about the
- 14:12Speaker 2: same girl and about his wanting to write they're.
- 14:16Speaker 1: Going to break up now that she's gone.
- 14:18Speaker 2: I could see that happening, honestly, yes, because she feels
- 14:20Speaker 2: like she can't trust him, and she's going to say
- 14:22Speaker 2: the next time someone walks in a light skinned girl,
- 14:24Speaker 2: I'm going to be on the chopping block.
- 14:26Speaker 1: Okay, this is my prediction for the show. And if
- 14:28Speaker 1: I use polymarket or Calshi or whatever, I would bet
- 14:32Speaker 1: on this. Okay, They're going to send some light skinned
- 14:36Speaker 1: girls Casey's.
- 14:37Speaker 2: Way because they just heard that is going to ramp
- 14:42Speaker 2: up the drama significantly, or at least it casts el Moore.
- 14:44Speaker 2: That's next week, right, Yeah, there will be some light
- 14:47Speaker 2: skin girls that.
- 14:48Speaker 1: Man, they are recruiting them now who because that's that's
- 14:55Speaker 1: and the folks that don't know they've they've touched on
- 14:57Speaker 1: this a little bit. But this is important and it
- 15:00Speaker 1: is relevant, and this is where Anaya needs to be
- 15:03Speaker 1: listened to and hugged to a certain degree. Yes, people
- 15:08Speaker 1: like her, even the water she twenty whatever, but her
- 15:12Speaker 1: and women who in their eighties black women dealt with
- 15:16Speaker 1: the same thing, this idea of lighter, wider skin is
- 15:21Speaker 1: the standard of beauty or longer and straighter hair is
- 15:24Speaker 1: a standard of beauty. And so she's dealt with this
- 15:27Speaker 1: her entire life. And it's a thing in the black community. Colorism.
- 15:32Speaker 1: Even jokes about the light skinned ones get to stay
- 15:35Speaker 1: in the house with Massa and the dog skin has
- 15:36Speaker 1: got to be in the field with the Yeah, that's
- 15:39Speaker 1: a thing, but that is it is, and even in
- 15:41Speaker 1: society that lighter skin black folks have better advantages in
- 15:46Speaker 1: business and whatnot because we seem to blend or lighter
- 15:50Speaker 1: that way. It's just a thing. So you even said
- 15:54Speaker 1: she might be soul might be the most stunning person
- 15:56Speaker 1: who has set foot on Love Island this season. Casey
- 16:02Speaker 1: black strong brother with a dark skinned sister who he
- 16:05Speaker 1: has said in early comments, right, you remember him saying
- 16:08Speaker 1: complimenting her on her dark She almost cried.
- 16:10Speaker 2: She did almost cry about it, and Trinity talked about
- 16:12Speaker 2: it again this episode what dark skinned women face.
- 16:15Speaker 1: So this light skinned stunner comes in that it seems
- 16:20Speaker 1: like your guy can't get off his mind. There's more
- 16:24Speaker 1: there than just some Casa Amore and Love Island bullshit.
- 16:28Speaker 1: There's some history there. There's some real hurt and real
- 16:32Speaker 1: life experience. I'm sure she has had that came to
- 16:37Speaker 1: fruition in front of all of us.
- 16:38Speaker 2: And look, it's no matter whether I know there are
- 16:41Speaker 2: times you've not agreed with an Eya even like man,
- 16:43Speaker 2: come on, she's overreacting or she's being really insecure in
- 16:47Speaker 2: this moment, but I do think that's so important to
- 16:49Speaker 2: point that out. Yes, she is an authentic person and
- 16:53Speaker 2: she is so likable. I mean, I don't know what
- 16:55Speaker 2: the polling is showing, but everyone we've talked to, everybody
- 16:59Speaker 2: loves an Eye.
- 17:00Speaker 1: Yeah. I wish they could. I wish they could be calm.
- 17:03Speaker 1: I wish they could have a quiet moment because the
- 17:06Speaker 1: stuff that's been happening, the back and forth is and.
- 17:09Speaker 3: It's gonna blow because anyway.
- 17:11Speaker 1: Where they gonna send in. Oh, they're gonna send.
- 17:13Speaker 2: In Casey's Casey is I think at this point out
- 17:16Speaker 2: he's pissed, like he is done and she kind of
- 17:19Speaker 2: is too, So I am. I am not feeling like
- 17:23Speaker 2: at one point we thought they might win.
- 17:25Speaker 3: I do not.
- 17:26Speaker 1: Their last steps are so small. They just just a
- 17:31Speaker 1: little that word going there, or that sentence not being said,
- 17:35Speaker 1: or just a little, and they would be golden.
- 17:37Speaker 2: Those love letters put them right back on track. And
- 17:40Speaker 2: then now we got problems.
- 17:41Speaker 1: Going on and still is a problem.
- 17:43Speaker 2: See this is why, as disgusting as those challenges are,
- 17:47Speaker 2: they always bring the drama. And speaking of disgusting challenges,
- 17:51Speaker 2: you reference this. Yes, the New York Times did an
- 17:54Speaker 2: entire article called this season of Love Island USA is
- 17:58Speaker 2: giving fans.
- 17:59Speaker 1: The ick ding ding ding ding.
- 18:01Speaker 2: And we were waiting for this because we knew this
- 18:04Speaker 2: was coming. But they just said that basically, yes, producers
- 18:07Speaker 2: have absolutely upped the ante. And whereas challenges before used
- 18:12Speaker 2: to be more about getting to know people in intimate questions,
- 18:16Speaker 2: they still have that, but it didn't have women in
- 18:19Speaker 2: lingerie blindfolded with handcuffs roves.
- 18:24Speaker 1: I forgot. Those challenges just made you uncomfortable.
- 18:28Speaker 3: Correct, well, maybe there was a kiss at the end,
- 18:30Speaker 3: but nothing.
- 18:30Speaker 2: We're not seeing people straddling others, slapping butts and with
- 18:35Speaker 2: the and I sound so old and prudish, but these
- 18:38Speaker 2: girls have g strings on to the point where we're
- 18:40Speaker 2: I just they look like naked bodies, like it's bizarre,
- 18:43Speaker 2: and they're literally just rubbing up all over each other kissing.
- 18:48Speaker 2: It's going into private rooms to kiss strangers. The clip
- 18:52Speaker 2: on mics aren't muted. People are asking for the volume
- 18:55Speaker 2: to be turned down. They even said the British version
- 18:58Speaker 2: did the same thing and had this upped up sexual atmosphere,
- 19:02Speaker 2: and that fans were saying, please, please, at the very least,
- 19:05Speaker 2: can you turn the audio off.
- 19:06Speaker 3: We don't want to hear the sloppy kisses. It's gross.
- 19:11Speaker 1: It kind of is.
- 19:12Speaker 3: It is gross.
- 19:13Speaker 1: I just don't know who this appeals. It's not sexy.
- 19:18Speaker 1: But yeah, they brought it back. They've had a few
- 19:20Speaker 1: episodes where we seem to escape that.
- 19:23Speaker 2: I do think that hopefully they will kind of dial
- 19:26Speaker 2: it back a little bit, like people are on TikTok
- 19:28Speaker 2: or saying it's literally just like, hey, can we get
- 19:30Speaker 2: you guys to be as nasty and as sexual as possible.
- 19:35Speaker 2: The challenges are sexual in nature and that did not
- 19:39Speaker 2: happen before. So I feel like, especially when they don't
- 19:42Speaker 2: know each other, it's don't you think about when now
- 19:44Speaker 2: that you are invested in certain couple's relationships, it's less
- 19:47Speaker 2: gross to watch them kiss, but it's gross to watch
- 19:50Speaker 2: complete strangers completely make out in such an intimate way
- 19:55Speaker 2: when there's no level of intimacy. It's disgusting. But by
- 19:59Speaker 2: the way, this season so far breaking Peacock viewership records.
- 20:07Speaker 1: I say what you want, you all are watching.
- 20:10Speaker 3: And that, and we are watching Love Island USA.
- 20:14Speaker 2: Season eight is Peacock's most watched TV debut ever, with
- 20:19Speaker 2: twenty three percent of viewership on phones and tablets.
- 20:23Speaker 3: That was just after the first episode.
- 20:25Speaker 2: But they are doing gangbusters, and to think people are
- 20:29Speaker 2: watching it wherever they are, like with their phones on
- 20:33Speaker 2: the subway.
- 20:33Speaker 3: It just may be at work.
- 20:35Speaker 2: But this thing is not going away, and unfortunately, perhaps
- 20:41Speaker 2: neither is the ick factor.
- 20:43Speaker 1: I hate the eck and we do. We fast forward
- 20:45Speaker 1: through these things. We skip that part of these shows,
- 20:48Speaker 1: but ropes. We have been on the road since last
- 20:52Speaker 1: Thursday throughout Europe. We have a VPN. We have watched
- 20:57Speaker 1: and kept up with Loveland as we have bounced from
- 21:03Speaker 1: Amsterdam to Belgium to France to Ireland. People are watching.
- 21:09Speaker 1: We're hooked. People are hooked, and so no matter how
- 21:13Speaker 1: much we complain, they can always point back to you. It.
- 21:17Speaker 1: It's all the biggest fans we have.
- 21:19Speaker 2: Shut up, but it is fun and we'll get through
- 21:23Speaker 2: the ick factor to actually get to witness and watch
- 21:26Speaker 2: and learn from the relationship lessons that are there in
- 21:30Speaker 2: each and every episode. So I guess tonight they've got
- 21:34Speaker 2: the after Sun party, So we're not that into that
- 21:37Speaker 2: as much.
- 21:37Speaker 3: Maybe I don't know, Maybe we'll.
- 21:39Speaker 2: Tune it in, but we're here for Sunday night to
- 21:42Speaker 2: watch what happens between Casey and Anaya the end. And
- 21:48Speaker 2: with that, everyone, we always appreciate you listening to us.
- 21:50Speaker 2: I may be revoc alongside TJ.
- 21:52Speaker 3: Holmes. We'll talk to you soon.
- 22:00Speaker 1: Not two things
