Love Island Tea Time

It's a solo episode today! Gigi's getting into the loved up UK Islander news then diving straight in to THREE big UK Islander break ups that all happened this week! Mainly, Julia and Lorenzo. If you want to skip to the bits of new from USA this week, at 18 min I talk Trinity and yachts, Melanie and the grove, NYFW and Beyond the Villa filming. Last but not least, 28 min in is a bit of lore about the one and only Maura Higgins and her rise to fame. Thanks for listening!

We're back with some news updates! Jumping in first with USA news and then onto a little bit of Uk news at 28 minutes in. There's more fallout from the reunion, and before you jump on use for not mentioning Jaiden was hanging out with the core 4, we see it! We saw it. Still suspicious. UK news is a little short, mostly on who is potentially broken up!

Was it nothing burger or was it everything bagel? We fear you'll spend less time listening to us break it down and complain than if you spen two hours watching the whole reunion. Maybe it is the Melanie show, and that's okay, she really served up the drama. Mostly it's beef between the core four and the other islanders. Two announced breakups, and one announced hook up that we really would've been fine missing out on.

We're getting into the new outside of the villa today! Who's together, who's potentially broken up and who's hanging out. We're starting off with USA and switching over to the UK at about 16 minutes in.

Today we're getting into which couples lasted and which didn't after Love Island USA seasons 6 and 7! We start off with season 6, and get into exactly how unlucky season 7 seems to have been! We focus on mainly the finalists from each season going from 4th placed to the winners. Thanks for listening!

I will put something else here

And we're back! We're keeping the end of love island blues away by talking about the biggest lessons we took away from Love Island USA season 8 and Love Island UK season 13. We start with some Love Island gossip news first, and get into the Main topic at about the 12 minute mark!

Thanks for listening, Hotteas!

It's been a crazy 8 weeks! Love Island UK 13 has come to an end, and we're talking the result of the last twist resulting in the the final dumped couple. Afterwards we get down to the bits of gossip and islanders cracking on outside the villa before we go couple by couple through the final three down to the winners of Exclusively Dating Island 😂 Afterwards, stick around to hear our end of series superlatives for our Love Island UK 13 yearbook.

We're up an hour late due to multiple technical difficulties, apologies for any poor audio quality this episode. Beyond that, we're jumping into the ex-islanders votes for who doesn't deserve to be in the final, from those who have the least votes to the dumped couple and THAT big twist. We're up on Youtube now, and Patreon coming soon! Thanks for listening yall!

We think it's time to get everyone out of the villa because everyone's acting paranoid and moving a little weird! Too many voices and opinions, not enough LOVE! Tommy and Yasmin are having a bit of a rocky end, Priya and Aidan are calling it off, Lorenzo going exclusive??? Simba thinks he's a genius for going against the grain, Samraj has a LOT of humble opinions and Kav might feel like his brother is more important to his Love Island experience than Jasmine??? The end has come just in time. & THANK YOU FOR 10K STREAMS!

Honestly, we're very distracted by Julia's shenanigans today! We're so over it we definitely missed out on a thing or two that happened this episode so sorry in advance. If you're a Julia fan, maybe give this one a skip. We're breaking down the Priya/Julia/Jasmine situation, that dressing room fight and how Lorenzo's handling it. Then we're touching on some but not all of the podcast vote results or we would be talking for two hours! Thanks for listening

It's the second half of the Grafties, lots of old stuff is being dragged up to cause new problems and there's a few islanders who've lost the plot. Priya and Aidan continue to run the show, Jas and Kav are doing better than expected, but Julia??? Babe? Her strong opinions are officially starting to fall apart. We are really missing the girlhood that used to be in the villa!

Priya and Aidan get to go on a date instead of any other couple??? Aidan has done a 180 on priya but he's trying to act like it's not a 180??? Kavan has been lying to him and everyone about Priya and Aidan this whole time??? The Grafties have started but they can barely get through it because everyone's holding trials about who's right and wrong??? We're already too nauseated to deal with this but here we go!

It's a bit of a shorter one today, as neither of us are feeling 100%, but also it was a pretty light episode. Kavan and Jasmine's families were wayyyyyy more on board than we were expecting, and Aidan was really just as into her little sister as the first look suggested. A recoupling meant it was finally the end of the road for Ethan but it didn't really seem like Priya cared much and was just glad to be back in bed with Aidan. We're SO READY for the Grafties to wake her up tomorrow!

We're a little extra goofy today, if you'd like to skip out on the personal chatter up topwe get into family day about three minutes in! We're going through each family one by one, the highlights and important moments, and how we felt about them. We're a little worried about what's going to happen with Kav and Jasmine that they pushed their families to tomorrow but we'll just have to wait and see!

It's apology time in the villa, and a few islanders are winning us over just in the nick of time before the summer ends. The boys are all falling in love, and Priya and Aidan are actually growing on us??? Then we move into the game; Knowing Me, Knowing you. We take it almost answer by answer sharing what surprised us, what didn't and what got on our nerves. Lastly, Jas and kav have finally dropped the L bomb, but is it going to be enough to carry them on the outside?

The results of the vote are in, four islanders have been dumped, and Ellie has self evicted from the villa. Julia is coming in hot with her unfiltered opinions and Mica and Angie are in tears. Ethan makes sure that he and Priya are dust, Samraj and Mica chat to Julia about who should've gone and last Jasmine is in tears too??? kavan better figure it out!

A new mean girl trio has officially banded together in the villa, and it's honestly not looking very cute as they pick apart Priya deading it off with Ethan. We still think there's a lot of bad behavior all around but you know it's getting weird in there when we're starting to come to Aidan's defense. Then we move on to a blow by blow of the Love Island Fest game that had couples "anonymously" assigning cooked statements to other couples and islanders, whether we agree and who could've gotten it instead. Then the news about four being dumped plus another islander self evicting.

Finley and Ellie are seemingly back on track, but do we want them to be? He's dead it off with Elicia, gotten into it with the boys, but we don't know if he's been taken back too easily. A big recoupling mixed things up a bit, and now Aidan is in another one of his favorite shape, the triangle, but now it's a square. Ethan's getting the worst end of it, but somehow Priya and Julia have made it that they're having the worst time?? We're wrapping up with our predictions for favorite boy and favorite girl and the bottom six!

It's still the bombshell pentagon with Finley and Ellie at the top, Priya and Ethan and Aidan coming in hot to fill it out. Anyone else think Aidan is Definitely NOT kidding about trying to rekindle with Ellie? Anyway, it's a real hot mess and it's starting to feel like the whole villa is involved. Add a splash of some cute moments with other couples and you've got today's episode. Like usual, we finish off with predictions for the next episode.
