Little Bit Leave It

Little Bit Leave It

A Love Island UK podcast for American viewers focused on cultural translation, questionable scholarship, and lowbrow humor. Every week, we dive into a (hopefully) interesting aspect of British culture or history--whether it's the most popular sexual fetishes or legends of Celtic mythology. We also spend way too much time talking about a specific episode, go over any new slang terms, and review the islanders' questionable fashion choices. New episodes publish every Saturday on Patreon, and then two days later on Mondays everywhere else.

It's the second episode of Little Bit Leave It and the sixth season of Love Island UK. Ben and Becka discuss the arrival of Jess and Eve as well as a very predictable set of steals, and explore why the show is so obsessed with scaffolders in our Deep Dive into the Sexiest Jobs in the UK,...

Time for Love Island UK, Season 6, Episode3 3. Ben and Becka talk about the fallout from the twins stealing Callum and Mike, why the most boring dates ever might speak to a boring cast, a mutual dislike of Siannise, and Mike's manipulative behavior. There's a deep dive into Paige Turley's singing career, lots of fashion reviews (good and bad), and an unconventional ranking of the couples.

We recap Love Island UK Season 6, Episode 4 and pour one out for our favorite wild game poacher and gentleman of leisure, Ollie, and do a deep dive into Cornwall, home of both Cornish hens and the cuckold king (yes, that's a real thing). Siannise delivers the line of the episode in the outfit of the episode, Shaughna loses points for her eyelashes, and we rank those couples, of course.

We talk about the dates with two new boys (imagine that in a cheesy Scottish accent), avert our eyes in embarrassment for Nas, and ponder what choices the guys will make in the first recoupling. We do a deep dive into the most popular sexual fetishes in the UK, insult the islanders' offensive outfits, and rank the couples a bit unconventionally... with a lonely single in the basement.

It's the first recoupling! Connagh throws everyone a curveball by picking Sophie, and original Connor is none too pleased. Who can blame him, though, after Siannise reveals she's a huge Red Hot Chili Peppers fan? Apart from the episode itself, we honor now-dumped Eve's relationship with Jess to discuss some interesting facts about fraternal and identical twins. As usual, we rate outfits and rank couples.

It's an instant classic episode of Little Bit Leave It! We're all one big twin now! We discuss Season 6, Episode 7 of Love Island UK, the drama around the first recoupling, reboot Midnight Cowboy and MacGyver, and alternately laugh and cry along with Nas. We take you on a virtual road trip of Wales' coolest tourist traps, review some great slang, and lament islanders' fashion choices. And... a new couple is on top of the rankings.

The dirty dancing episode comes early this season, as we review Episode 8 of Season 6 of Love Island UK. It's more Connor vs. Connagh, plus a brand new girl arrives to shake things up... well, shake things up and down in any case. We've got a deep dive into the Welsh rabbit and a new couple on top of the rankings!

Enter the worst Rebecca! We get our first glimpse of this season's Hideaway, Sophie and Connor come back together, and Shaughna asserts her alpha status in the villa (or tries, anyway). We do a shallow-ish dive into OG Connor, question the contestants' questionable fashion choices, and (surprise!) rank the couples--and another solo contestant languishes in the basement, all the way down at #8.

The Worst Rebecca continues to rock the boat, giving Shaughna and Paige a scare, but who will she end up pursuing? Jess spills Rebecca's tea, Leanne and Mike's relationship shows cracks, and Siannise does what she does (again). Becka hates on Nas and does a deep dive into the use of the phrase "Becky with the good hair." We follow Shaughna's lip implants around her face and have a big shake-up in the couple rankings.

The Worst Rebecca continues to shake up the house, and who knows what will happen when not one but two Lukes arrive at the villa. Our deep dive explores Brits in Vegas, Becka excoriates the islanders' fashion choices, and a certain Bristolian is back in the basement by herself... again.

A recoupling shakes up the villa! But not before the two Lukes get three dates each, beginning with Siannise and Jess. We've got pranging, heads being turned, and no episode is complete without a Connor and Sophie argument. We do a deep dive into Bristol in honor of Siannise, talk about some cool jackets, and rank these cheeky couples.

What an episode! The fallout from the recoupling creates drama but it doesn't stop Siannise from getting to know Luke T.--and we're maybe rooting for her now? Callum and Shaughna go on a date--but are their feelings genuine? And to top it off, one of the marquee couples is going to be split up: will Connor or Sophie be the one to go?

Mike dumps Leanne from the villa and heads straight for Jess. Shaughna is angry with Mike but not angry enough to distract her from her mission of pushing Sophie out of the villa, too--or maybe she was just taking her anger out on Sophie. Luke M. does what he can to stop Mike from grafting but it's just not working, and Nas and Demi finally lock lips after breaking the ice in the sex position game.
