Episode Transcript

(00:00):
Let's talk about some of the biggest storylines.
I think like the the one that really, I would say dominated
the first half of the game. I mean, I do see this show as a
game and some. I'm ace basically.
Oh my God. Like.
It was Hooda and Jeremiah. Like do you guys think that

(00:20):
Jeremiah's boot was reasonable? And do you think that if he
wasn't dumped from the island that him and Huda would have
continued to date? No and no, we agreed.
I do. I think him and Huda, they were
done. And that whole thing was so

(00:42):
toxic and not and from both sides in my opinion, like him
saying, oh, oh, I think Nick said this in one of his
interviews. He was like, yeah, Jeremiah
would say, oh, I'm going to talkto Huda the most today.
So she can't talk to anyone elseand then like, I don't know if
it was when they were leaving the OR whatever.

(01:03):
And he goes, I just spread my Cologne on her.
That was like, and that was like, that was after they had
sort of like split and I'm like,OK, right.
Like that. Is it just insane work?
I don't think they were going toget back together.
Also, they should should not andshould never.

(01:26):
And then the Jeremiah boot I I from a love Island perspective,
I don't think it was reasonable because usually like the whole
point right is to like work on your connections And he did.
Normally I feel like people would be like, Oh well, he has
this budding relationship that just started with Andreina.
Like he should definitely be safe at this point.

(01:50):
Austin had no one and so the clear answer should have been
him, but it kind of from a from a non Love Island perspective of
like, I don't know what are we going to call it ace of
strategy. I do think there was like a
little bit of not like competition come into play, but

(02:11):
like from the vibes of the conversations that we were
watching before that, like I don't think he like gelled with
the like, it was obviously like Taylor Ace, Nick in one corner
and Austin and Jeremiah and the other.
So it was more like Friendshipy Island.
When it comes to that boot specifically, and then we can

(02:34):
get back into like their relationship because I have
thoughts. But like, when it came to that
boot, it really did feel like I don't know very left field for
both picks. But.
I don't. Know it, it did feel like a
leader of an alliance trying to take out their biggest threat
and like in any sort of way, like if it came to obviously not

(02:56):
votes 'cause he was in the bottom and Ace wasn't.
But like if it came to like other girls or like if it came
to screen time or like, or if itcame to like, I don't know,
rallying the boys or having quote UN quote numbers in the
villa. Like it did just feel like a
sideswipe. And I don't know, maybe it

(03:17):
seemed like the the guys thoughtthat they were going to dump
Iris and that sign, but I think they just saw Pepe has a better
number to have and they saw Austin as like less threatening
than Jeremiah, But like it really did give social strategy
at that point. Not it did.
Because like, The thing is, is that I think Jeremiah would have

(03:39):
made it to the finale if he didn't get this early boat.
Because it's like you're right that it it is about finding a
connection technically, but it'slike, if you want to win the
money, you have to be like the best, tightest connection.
And I just feel like a saw how he was so coupled up with Huda
and then it's like he was about to do the exact same thing with

(04:00):
Andrena. Andrena.
I think. Andrena no like love and light
to her. She was honestly kind of like a
flop of a bombshell to be honest.
But like, I think that they would have made it to the
finale, to be honest. I think Andrina is proof that if
you're hot, you can just be hot.Yeah.
Like I, I think that's all thereis there.

(04:25):
I don't know. I'm, I'm setting feminism back a
lot with that, yeah. I mean, Brian, yeah, I don't
think. She had a big personality for
the guys to work off of, but I mean, clearly the girls fucked
with her. So again, I'm setting feminism
back. But I think it's like almost
that she was. So I think with she thinks she

(04:46):
has to be so perfect around guysthat she wasn't her true self
because yeah, the girls fucked with her.
So she probably is cool to hang out with in terms of like girl
time. But I feel like she thought she
always had to be perfect with the guys.
She did say she's never like hada boyfriend before.
Yeah, which is also crazy. Someone someone online said she

(05:07):
doesn't have to worry. Drake will be in a few weeks.
Not already like crawling aroundin there.
But how did Jeremiah like toxic from the beginning?
