‘Love Island’ S7e15-20: Not Mamacita’s Little Meatball! w/Kelsey McKinney
BFF of the pod Kelsey McKinney joins us to discuss a real rollercoaster of a week on “Love Island USA.” We start with some truly baffling eliminations – how dare they do this to Hannah??? – and then head straight into the most pain-filled Casa Amor Fiji has ever witnessed. (We feel personally victimized by some of these choices. Stop taking cues from that failed “Bachelor In Paradise” season, producers!!!) Luckily we got a hint of redemption at the end… and Nicolandria stans everywhere rejoiced.

‘Pretty Woman’ Is The Most Charming Vulture Capitalist Fairytale w/ Josh Gondelman
It’s rom-com rewatch time! We head back to 1990 Los Angeles for a beautiful tale about a sex worker (Julia Roberts) being lifted up into wealth, privilege and classiness by a corporate raider with a heart of gold (Richard Gere). It’s the ultimate capitalistic fairy tale, dreaming up a ruthless investor who has amassed millions by destroying things – but who actually has a soft heart, principles, and a deep yearning to be loved. Comedian Josh Gondelman (host of the upcoming YouTube special “Positive Reinforcement”) joins for a beat-by-beat journey through the Rapunzel-Cinderella-Pygmalion Frankenstein that made Julia Roberts a star.

‘Love Island’ S7e9-14: Hurricane Huda Is A Mamacita
“LOVE ISLAND USA” SEASON 7 IS CINEMA! We weren’t quite ready to commit after a week of episodes – one can’t lock in too early, you have to explore! – but after watching episodes 9-14, we’re closing off. The drama in the villa reached all-time highs, with a pancake incident pushing Huda and Jeremiah’s bond to the breaking point, a forced recoupling that prompts an epic crashout, and a newly minted couple experiencing a breakup so agonizing you’d never guess they had declared their feelings just an hour before.

News & Gossip: 2 Weddings, An ‘LIB’ Divorce, And A ‘Bachelor’ Breakup w/ Zachary Reality
Bachelor Nation and Love Is Blind Land have been rocked by two major splits – including an acrimonious divorce between Lydia and Milton of “Love Is Blind” that finally closes the book on a disastrous season 5 (from which zero couples now remain). Then we discuss the entirely unsurprising split between Grant and his “Bachelor” winner Juliana, delivered anticlimactically via Instagram Stories. But it’s not all bad news! Two big “Bachelor” weddings brought the love this week. We dig into it all, plus some thoughts on the “Traitors” season 4 cast announcement.

‘Love Island’ S7e3-8: Ace Loses Face
“Love Island USA” is getting juicy. Huda and Jeremiah are careening towards disaster, two new bombshells enter the villa to try to turn the men’s heads, and we have our first exit from the villa. (We’ll miss you, Belle-dasha. Sort of.) We also are getting some strong redpill vibes from certain men – cough, Ace, cough – and honestly hope that our fave gals get some new dudes in the villa to jump ship to as soon as humanly possible.
