Foreign. We're back and we're going deep, deep into Love Island USA season eight. Breaking down. The last week we had movie night, we had a recoupling. It's the most mayhem driven season of the show that I've ever watched. Some craziness. So we're going to get into it. We're going to keep it cute. We're going to have some fun and remind everyone that this is fun. We are talking about a reality TV show.
Danny
Yes.
Dan
Let's everyone take a deep breath and just have some fun talking about Love Island. It was crazy stuff.
Danny
This is, this was the greatest week of television I've ever watched.
Chris
It was.
Danny
I am absolutely buzzing right now.
Dan
I, I can't believe the stress that this show provides me. Yeah. Like I, I went into this going, oh, hey, it'll be fun to review Love Island. I love Love Island. It's fun. No, and it's just been nothing but anxiety and stress and going online and seeing people trying to kill each other online over a reality show. And I'm like, oh, my God, what happened?
Danny
That's. Dude, that's a, that's a no brainer. That's automatic.
Dan
I didn't, I didn't know. I thought it would be fun.
Chris
I, I think it was Thursday. I had to catch up and I, I deadass told myself, I was like, I'm not watching tonight. I want to be in a good mood.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
But then I was like, well, I got to review it, so I got to watch it. And I, and I watched it and it did piss me off a little bit. Got me worked up because then I got to go on Twitter and check all the stuff. But take our. Take a quick thought here to just pray. Pray for Melanie, right?
Dan
My God, man, someone save her.
Chris
The entire villa is against her, right? The girls are all against her. The guys are all against her. Everybody's under the sincere spell. The entire villa has been under the sincere spell for the entire fucking show, right? And this, she's the only one who's broken. And she's done it three separate times. Every time this woman breaks this fucking sincere curse, one of her stupid friends gets in her face and is like, hey, you know what? Just take him back. He still chose you, Right? I think, like, let's, like, let's work on it.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
We watched a 3 1/2 minute Netflix special on that TV of Sincere lion in front of soul's face, Melanie's face. And then he did it again with Amora and, and, and Melanie. And Melanie and Crickets. Right after crickets. After all these yelling at kc.
Danny
Yeah. Yeah.
Chris
These ladies had the nerve. The fact that he was able to get his sentence out after that Netflix special, dude, is just unbelievable. How about her getting up? She's the only one to defend herself. Hey, Kada. Hey, Trinity. Where are we at? Right? Yeah, let's be girls. Like, let's be girls,
Danny
dude.
Dan
Well, dude, I, I, I. My takeaway from this show. Looking at the, the discourse online, the producers of this television show, there are. Are some of the most significant evil geniuses I've ever seen.
Chris
The racist, like, the. I'm serious.
Dan
It's nuts, man. Like, the way that they have specifically designed and crafted this show to attack the cast members.
Chris
Oh, yeah.
Dan
Is nuts, because I'm like, these, these are real people, dude.
Danny
But it's like this every time, right? Like, movie night is. Is.
Dan
No, no.
Chris
Well, not like this. It's gotten really bad this year.
Dan
I, I have gone back and watched some movie nights, and from what I've watched and I saw that was such a funny tweet that I'm going to shout out. It felt like movie night. In the past, there were some, like, funny moments where everyone was like, oh, I'm just laughing at someone. There's obviously some drama moments, but every single clip in this movie night was, like, meant to create division amongst the cast. Whereas in the past, it felt like there were just some, like, awkward moments, funny moments, and then every now and then, some drama.
Chris
Season six, it was like that. I'm sure before that it was very lighthearted. But season six was just like season eight, where it was like every clip was shown to piss people off, but they had couples you could root for. Sure you wanted these couples to work it out with. This season, it's like, not only does this movie night suck and create division, but all these couples fucking suck. Like, I'm not rooting for Sincere and Melanie to get back together. I'm not rooting for Kayda and Zack back. I'm certainly out on Trinity and Bryce.
Danny
I knew you were gonna.
Chris
Because production is. Is throwing them down our throats. They're. They're the fake, like, fun couple this year. I'm so out on Trinity. If I could vote for Bryce twice, I would. But Trinity. And you know what? You know how much she has to do for me to not be a fan of Trinity anymore.
Danny
She's my.
Chris
Like, she is. She is disappointing me.
Danny
Yep.
Chris
Her being silent during Kenzie's thing and being silent during Sincere's thing, but she's Got the most to say about kc. Is that not weird, dude?
Danny
What was the.
Chris
Is that not a little bit?
Danny
We remember the line.
Dan
You're again, what I.
Chris
It's contradiction.
Dan
What I need to know is it's the producers. Like, maybe she wasn't silent, but the way they're positioning it feel feels so. No, it feels so violent. Everybody.
Chris
Everybody was silent. There was crickets.
Danny
Dude. I will say, I like, as a new to Love Island.
Dan
Yeah.
Danny
I want my movie night to be like this. Like, as a new viewer. I'm like, I don't want to watch. Like, oh, that was fun. I'm like, literally. Yeah.
Chris
Tell us when they see clear bombs on everybody.
Danny
So I got everything I wanted and Dann there. And maybe you remember there was one line where somebody. It was during one of the movie night fights where they go, the guys were like, you girls. You villa girls ripped Titi to shreds before you knew anything. And then the girls sit back and Kada or somebody goes, I'd do it again. And I was like, you're out of.
Chris
You're out of your mind.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
They're just.
Chris
Now it's a game.
Dan
They're being a little too mean. They do this.
Chris
They're being high school girls.
Dan
It's funny. I shout out the tweet that I was going to say someone. Someone tweeted. It was like, bro, movie night used to be a fun little thing. And now Casey's movie night portion was a full on Rico case. And I dying laughing. I'm all, dude, it was in. It was crazy. It was 10 to 15 minutes of the entire episode. So I was like, so these producers literally went, let's try to ruin this man's life.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
And that's where I'm like.
Chris
And they almost did.
Dan
It's. It's nuts, dude. It's. I actually saw someone. It was like. Or. I mean, I'm getting too dark in it. But it's like, there have been some pretty dark things with this show in the past. Yeah. And people are like, this is why, dude, like you. You guys are actively trying to ruin people's lives on this show.
Danny
And I'm like, well, I thought this show was fun, dude. You go on Love Island. It's a. It's a tall, dangerous game, friendo.
Dan
But it's like, I get. I get so confused. And again, I know it's got to be the editing, at least to a huge extent, but. But the way they all, you know, after the recoupling, the way they all talk about the like, we're a family here. We love each other. And I'm like, well, I just watched two nights of Mo or two nights of movie night, and you do not feel like you love each other and are family. Like you guys are actively. Some of them are being really mean to each other. And I'm like, this is uncomfortable.
Chris
Disappointed in Bryce, because, like, this whole Sincere, like, I get not knowing who Sincere is up to this point. Right. It's easy for us to diagnose Sincere
Danny
because we see it all. They don't see his private convos.
Chris
They don't see his private convos. They get a little dose as Sincere in group convos and that kind of stuff. So I get that. But after movie night, there is no excuse to not know how he is. Why was the only male cast member to recognize Sincere's behavior? Corbin.
Dan
Yeah, man.
Chris
Are you out of your mind?
Dan
You're Bryce.
Chris
You're 30. You're supposed to be the big. Supposed to be the dad big. And also, he has the most comfortable couple. So he's in a position where he can be more observant. Right. He doesn't have to worry about chasing and like, Car. Corbin being the only one to recognize Sincere's behavior and Parmita being the only one to say, hey, you don't deserve that to Melanie. And Melanie going, that's what a real friend would say to me. Because all my birdhead friends keep telling me to go back to this stupid. They're all team Sincere.
Danny
It's crazy.
Dan
Dude, that was weird.
Chris
Just Sincere. Anaya, why don't you just Him. You too, Kada. You guys can all just have one big orgy together when. With Sincere. Because it's all kc, but Sincere gets to dance all over the villa.
Danny
Correct.
Chris
I did a clown.
Dan
I. I was win in the Corbin column. Like, if you. If you hate Corbin, you know, what do you. I thought that was a very mature moment.
Chris
Because he's honest. He's not.
Dan
When he was like. He was like, man, I hate to do it like he's my boy, but like that. I just watched a bunch of lies.
Chris
I feel lied to.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
And I feel he was like.
Chris
I feel like he broke my trust.
Danny
Yes.
Dan
Like, Parmita was like, I'm looking out for you as a friend. You deserve better than that. And it's. It's another one. Sincere was like, that's valid.
Danny
Yeah. Understandable.
Chris
That's all he says. It's all a broken record. The up.
Dan
You can't just keep agreeing with everything Sincere and then you Know, not change. And that's what he's done the whole show. So it was crazy.
Danny
Danny, this line killed me to this random throw, but Danny just said it and it reminded me when Corbin in his video had the college girls quote. I forget, you know, he's like, the. The caster girls are like college girls. The villa girls are like high school girls. Somebody, I think K was like, under her breath was like, please, Corbin, you're 22.
Chris
You're 20.
Danny
And dude, I can't remember Corbin's. If he like dropped out or didn't go to college, I don't know. But I do have to say K. I would say that someone who is 22 is exactly the type of person who would know the difference between like, that is graduate from college age. So she was like, oh, you think you know, college girls, high school girls, you're 22. And I was like, if I needed that.
Chris
Yeah.
Danny
If I needed someone to analyze that, I would ask a 22 year old.
Chris
Also, she tries to be the big, like, scary girl she is. And it's all. It's only towards the women, which I think is the worst kind of girl to be. It's like she's big and strong and big and like, oh, don't step on it. Like, to the girls, she's big and strong. Don't step on her toes. But to the guys, she's. She just goes right back to Zach. Like, where's this strong woman mentality now?
Danny
That.
Chris
That. Come on, Keta, Zach's playing in your face.
Dan
I sometimes forget that Kata was a bombshell.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
The way she behaves is like, you know, they call them the core four or whatever.
Chris
Oh, yes. Oh, they suck. The core four Dead.
Danny
The core four.
Chris
It's like Hitler times four. I'm dead serious.
Danny
Who are the core four?
Chris
I believe Hitler, Melanie, Stalin, Mussolini. Mussolini and Satan himself. And he leads the band. He's the lead singer.
Dan
I think it's like Trinity, Anaya, Melanie and K is who they.
Danny
Because Caleb too.
Chris
Caleb's was a boxer nightmare. Blunt rotation.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
Also, I think you're wrong about Caleb.
Danny
Caleb. Oh.
Dan
I think he showed this week that he is just like kind of a sensitive guy who was looking for someone to like him and be kind to him.
Chris
I agree with that, but I don't think I'm totally wrong. I think the reason he didn't make a serious, genuine, like he never made a genuine connection on the entire show. The common theme with every girl he talked to within a day. They were tired of his. We Wanted them to be more, you know, demanding. I think he still was kind of playing into that whole like cons, you know, I'm gonna be conservative role. But I also do think he is a sensitive young kid.
Dan
Yeah, I think he's just like kind of shy.
Danny
And when he had that.
Chris
Yeah, I think it's a little bit of both.
Danny
I was like, whoa. Danny was all over this. But I actually will say I loved his. I don't know if you could watch till the very end, but I loved, loved his parting line when he was like, I wish I was staying but not at the cost of any of them. And I was awesome.
Dan
I, I let out an audible awe.
Danny
Me too.
Dan
Oh dude, you're just a nice.
Danny
That was great.
Dan
I think he needs like I, I, I think he's his love language is words of affirmation and I think he didn't really get that from anybody. And I, yeah, I thought, I think he's just a sweet guy at the end of the day and it was
Chris
tough in reality he's not because he's on love island. But you know, he is sensitive. I guess it's sensitive, you know, loving guy, but yeah, you know, even what's his face crying over Kenzie kissing another girl. It's like, dude, would you give me a fucking break? And remember you have chest on your
Danny
hair, on your chair, on your chest.
Chris
Dude, I chest on your hair, bro. Fuck up. You're crying over Kenzie. She's done this six times already, dude.
Danny
That was baffling.
Chris
Also he was trying to farm with the popcorn during movie nights. Like bro, him. Would you just stop?
Dan
Do you think that that was that or do you think he was genuinely just.
Chris
They do it every time. Like somebody tries to be cool on movie night. Yeah, he's trying to clip farm.
Danny
Dude, he, him crying for KZY was insane.
Chris
I was like, I just really liked her. No, you bro, what is wrong with you? Are you trying.
Danny
Cuz to your point, they also just met three days ago and I'm like, stop crying.
Chris
He's trying to cater to the female audience. Oh my gosh. I liked her, bro.
Dan
I, I'm never going to come at someone for showing emotion and sensitivity will
Chris
for fake emotion but that when he
Dan
was crying with Kenzie I was like, no, dude, just don't, you know, feel the emotions. But you got to hold those in. It's like Dune. I was like, don't let the water out. Yes. You've got to hold those.
Danny
You have to.
Chris
Yes, dude.
Dan
I was like, you have to hold that in, man. I feel the emotions. I want you to show your emotions. But right now, because for me it was. Kenzie doesn't deserve your tears.
Danny
Obviously not.
Chris
She's a theme, obviously some sort of goddess.
Dan
Kenzie does not deserve your tears, man. You've been nothing but a gentleman and, and you've shown. You've showed affection towards her. She does not deserve these tears, man.
Danny
You laid out condoms for her on the dock once.
Dan
And then, dude, the, the. The clip that. When she is, like, hugging him and. And being like, I want a second chance because she knows that she's going to be booted if she doesn't. The deadpan look on her face, like it's the cameras on her face. And she just looks so mad that
Danny
she has to say this. Yeah.
Dan
And I was like, oh, gosh, dude.
Danny
And Dan, I loved this line. She goes, this was like after the. All their fights and he's already cried and maybe it's the same scene, but she says to him, she's like, I don't want to hurt your feelings anymore. It's like the next day. And Dylan goes, wow, that really shows your maturity. And I was like, do you think that she has matured in 12 hours? According to Dylan? She was once this. And now she says, I don't hurt your feelings anymore. And he goes, wow, you've really matured.
Chris
Producers make them say certain. Like, you can sometimes that to me, the case. Yeah. Oh, yeah, they will. They make them do stuff and say stuff sometimes. Okay, so, like, conversations that happen in terms of like, hey, this something. This happened last night. We want you two to talk about it. Or, hey, you know, this. Look, they won't say it looks bad, but, like, if they can tell the audience, like, I don't. I don't know, like, certain things of, like, apologies that don't make sense, that come out of nowhere. Right. Or. Or conversations that happen out of nowhere. It's like I've never seen these two talk. That is all like the producers, like,
Dan
perfect, perfect transition because we can't tiptoe around it. I do not want to spend too much time on it because I'm exhausted by it. I felt that way with the Casey and I resolution. Yeah. We watched.
Danny
Oh, interesting.
Dan
We watched World War three with these two. And that's been the biggest point of contention with the fan base. And I'm. This is what I'm saying. Like, remember, everybody, we are. We're talking about a reality show.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
And we're, We're. We're just we're talking about the reality show. Doesn't need to go deeper than that. These two have been at going to blows. And then Casey stands up to try to defend himself. He gets fucking ethered for standing. And then Anaya comes over and hovers over him, screaming at him. And I was like, hold. At that point, I was legitimately not enjoying the show.
Chris
Yeah. If I'm Carl, I'm like, dude, I
Dan
said the same thing.
Chris
I would have been, do I exist
Danny
so fucking out if I was Carl watching that, like, holy.
Chris
It's just very gross. It's like.
Dan
But, like, I'm gonna be honest because it goes both ways. I would have. I would have felt so out if I were Tierra, too, because I'm like, these two are so toxic. Like, I, I. Casey has been bullied and. And piled on, and I don't think that that's right.
Chris
But Casey was wanting to move on, though, and it was like, just say, can I apologize and not have four wolfhounds just screaming at me?
Dan
I agree. And I did feel like this week, he did get the opportunity to apologize.
Chris
He did. He did a great job.
Dan
And because. And this is what I. I need to say. He needed to apologize. And. And when he was. He was like, I said a bunch of dumb shit because I was frustrated and blah. And that's not an excuse. And it was good to see him own up to it. But he did need to apologize because he was. I. I think Casey's kind of corny in a lot of ways, and I think that corniness comes out in him maybe trying to sound cool to his boys, and he's. I think he sounded like a douchebag way too many times.
Chris
He did. And in Casa.
Dan
Yep, absolutely. And, like, that's why the girls were piggybacking on it. I think they. They piled on him too much and
Danny
ignored the massive double standards.
Chris
But what if he. What if he picked her?
Dan
Oh. Oh.
Chris
It would have all been forgiven. Right. So that's why, to me, that's all just out the window.
Dan
It had been the same treatment Zach got sincere got, and absolutely, it went too far because he found a new connection.
Chris
Because he found a new connection.
Dan
And that was disappointing. But I thought after that, after Anaya was hovering over him, screaming at him, I was exhausted with the show because I was like, these two have too many emotions, and the producers and the cast members are feeding into it too much, and now no one's having fun. Yeah.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
And then when Anaya came over and, in my opinion, showed the True. And I. The Naya, that was my best friend week one.
Danny
The.
Dan
The woman that I love, that I
Chris
think is awesome production told her to do that.
Dan
Well, that's what I want. Like, oh, interesting.
Danny
Regardless, because that was my favorite. One of my favorite moments.
Dan
She came over and delivered one of the most eloquent and sincere apologies ever that I believe showed the person she really is. And that I was like, I'm having fun again on this show. And it did feel. I was like, did someone tell her to do that?
Danny
Would actually bummed me out so much because I loved that moment.
Dan
But I don't care if. Even if they did tell her to do it, I think it was still her apologize.
Danny
Okay. Okay.
Dan
And it was like, whether she was told to do it by a producer.
Chris
A little bit of truth to that. Yeah.
Dan
Yeah. By another apology. I think it was like a. Someone snapping into to the both of them going, enough of this shit.
Chris
It's not that big of a deal. Yeah.
Dan
And she went. She was like, you know what? Let's fucking bury this nonsense and move on. And then he pulled her for a chat. I thought their chat was amazing. And, like, they both were able to say certain apologies.
Chris
And, like, one was able to talk.
Dan
Casey being like, I'm happy that you're with Carl. And she was. Again, I'm happy that you're with tt. Like, I'm.
Chris
She said, don't fuck it up with tt that's not what she said. Yeah.
Dan
Yeah.
Chris
She's still being a little snarky.
Dan
Well, that I've. I read that as a little bit of snark, but also a little bit of, like, friendship personality, given that is it.
Chris
You know, that is true.
Dan
And to me, it was just like. I was like, thank God that these two. Because the thing that sucks about that whole situation, I actually think they do like each other. I don't think that they're romantically.
Danny
She loves him.
Chris
She's obsessed.
Danny
She's obsessed with him.
Chris
Yeah,
Dan
possibly. I think that they do really, really like each other. And maybe they're just not a romantic match. Yeah. And that's why he found a different connection that maybe fills his love languages.
Chris
She did too.
Dan
And she did too. And the fact that they seem to find a resolution where they're like, you know what? I'm happy for you. I'm happy for you. Let's go back to the friendship that we had made me so happy because it made me enjoy the show again.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
Like those two and the rest of the cast members, like, feeding that War.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
I was like, I haven't had fun on the show in two weeks, dude. Like, please stop making these two try to kill each other. So the only thing I didn't like
Danny
about the end of their chat was, and you know how I always bring up gaslighting on the show. This is the show's greatest gaslight, in my opinion, was at the end of their apology. She goes, because you said there's a little stark. She goes, I forgive you. And I wish he had been like this. And I forgive you too. But instead, it's like this whole narrative.
Chris
Well, she's never apologized for anything on the show. And that's fine. Nobody, you know, it's fine. Whatever. I, I, My whole, my whole thing is like, like, it's not like, what I hate that the audience does is we pretend that Casey did all that just to do it out of spite. Like, he just, he got, he blew up and he said all those things about Anaya just because that's who he is.
Dan
Yeah.
Chris
No, there was built up resentment. These two didn't have a good conversation for weeks. She would constantly get up and never. That nothing ever got resolved. They like, they were the worst couple going into Casa. I think those by a mile. Every contestant on the show have kissed the least. And I mean everybody. I'm talking like, Kada and Caleb have kissed more. Then Bryce and Zach have kissed more than Casey and Anaya. But, like, seriously, like, those two were not. They had issues. And Anaya would constantly tell her friends, like, no, like, we're good. Me. And I think, I feel like me and Casey are good. Which is like, not the case. And she knows that's not the case. You haven't hugged your man in three days.
Danny
And can I add Danny, because I was clocking this too. When she gets with Carl, do you guys remember this quote? They're making out and she goes in her interview, she goes, I was about to this man and say less.
Chris
Which is so.
Danny
Okay, so then you like him.
Chris
But it's also very. I feel bad for Carl because when Carl first comes back, she, like, mounts him.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
And they like make out. And then the only person in the villa that she can tell that because you can't go to actual real people about this. She goes to Kenzie.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
And sincere.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
The two biggest pieces of garbage on this show, mentally. And because, like, she can't tell that to her girls because they're just going to be like, whoa, that's not you. Like, yeah, yeah. It took me forever.
Danny
Why did you do that.
Chris
It took you forever to cuddle with Casey. I don't even know if you did. It's just like, it seems. It seems a little weaponized, in my opinion. I don't know.
Danny
But.
Chris
But at the end of the day, like, they all found their connection. I'm hoping it goes well, but I think. I really hope Anaya just, like, forgets about Casey because to me, it still feels like some of this stuff is out of spite and it's going to play with Carl's feelings.
Dan
Well, I'm starting to get in. I mean, dude, we've talked about it like this. The decision to go on a show like this is. I think that these people are fucking superheroes. Like, the emotional and mental fortitude that every cast member has to go on this show when the producers and the edits do what they do to these people is unbelievable. Like, they are. They are all. It's miraculous to me.
Chris
But, like. Yes.
Dan
Oh. I was just gonna say, I think the, like, the spike that we see in some of the situations, I think it's a combination. We kept hearing the word, like, disrespect. Disrespect. I think there's so much embarrassment, too.
Chris
That is all it is.
Dan
And I have so much sympathy for that. And I don't like the way that the producers and the other cast members, like you just said, weaponize the embarrassment because they spin it into, like, they show these clips and they keep letting, like, the cast members feed the. In my opinion, maybe the misdirected feeling.
Chris
Yes.
Dan
When it. When it actually is one feeling. And it's like, well, why don't we take care of this feeling and nurture that and build you back up? Because it's just so many misplaced emotions. And then when you pour gas on the fire of said emotions, you misdirect it, and then it turns into hate and anger. And I'm like, we're. This is awful.
Chris
And then everybody. One person gets to be a victim, and the other person. It's like, literally Hitler getting death threats in their DMS and made out to be a terrible person.
Dan
Yes.
Chris
Because they just. They just are like this. It's like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Like, there was a teacher online that made, like, a very, very racist video about Casey. Really? She a licensed teacher, about how he's, like, a part of, you know, no Child Left behind shit.
Danny
Like.
Chris
And I'm like, where do you get, like, what happened on this show to make you think you can get online and be comfortable enough saying that weirdo. And that's been. Happen. Like, it's. It's gotten kind of bad on the Internet about.
Dan
Yeah, that's what I'm saying. I thought. I thought talking about this show would be fun and. And people are doing stuff like that, and I'm like, this is a reality TV show.
Danny
I The. You said you didn't have fun for parts. The first episode we watched this week was right after the return from Casa.
Chris
Like, that was the first episode Mondays or Sundays.
Danny
Yeah. So it opened with, like, Casey has just come back. There was that fight, and then it. We pick up right there, and it was Anaya, and she's, like, bawling, crying, screaming like, I'm humiliated. They're laughing at me. And she was falling to the floor, and I was like, dude, like, that is the literal post. Uncomfortable. I have ever been watching television. It was awful.
Chris
Why Everybody comes to her aid and everybody. Everybody's fine. Melanie. This has happened to Melanie, like, four different times, and nobody gives.
Danny
Yes, let's go here.
Dan
Let's go here.
Chris
Because that is the victim. I'm telling you right now. Like, and you know what also sucked during movie night? When she's watching all this, like, Anaya in her ear. Anaya and Trinity being like, see, I knew you wasn't crazy. You're not crazy. I know you weren't crazy. Look, at least you know you're not crazy. I know I'm not crazy. I know I'm not crazy.
Danny
It's so crazy. I didn't do anything so crazy.
Chris
The more you say it, the more I'm gonna feel crazy.
Danny
Like, and I'm about to hit you.
Chris
And then why did I have to get up and defend myself? I was the only one going at sincere. Even after his first response was, but what about you? You, like, he literally deflected crazy. Still crickets from the girls. That was insane. They should have been like. They should have been like, no, you sincere you for saying that. But, like, oh, like, that should agree. You know what I mean?
Danny
That's.
Chris
That was barbaric. At least KC Just sat there and ate it. And same with Corbin. There's been teams for every couple on this show. There was a Team Kenzie and a team Corbin. The worst couple on Love Island. There's never been any buddy for team Melanie. It's always been team Sincere team. Since there was a Team kc There was a team Anaya. There's teams for everybody. No Team Melanie.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
No Team Melanie. Melanie, I love you. Melanie, I pray for you. Melanie, I'm there for you. I'm Team Melanie.
Dan
I saw a tweet that was a freeze frame of sincere. Like this, dude.
Danny
So Danny said this while you were
Dan
gone, and it said. I think.
Chris
I think that was Evan Sean.
Dan
Sorry, Lexi. Lexi sent me this tweet. Yeah, it's like, he's like this. And it goes. When you see bro with his hand tooted up like this, and the word tooted is the funniest thing I've ever heard. And it's says, you are about to hear the biggest display of manipulation you've ever seen. And it is true, man. And I. I was devastated when all the girls were like, you're not crazy. You're not crazy.
Chris
It's disappointing.
Dan
And then after movie night, they're still being like, I'm team Sincere, man. Like, I. I think you guys are going to work it out. And I'm like, protect this woman.
Chris
Yeah. Not even that yelling in her face. If I want to be Tim since Team Sincere, I'm going to be team Sincere. Why are you yelling at me?
Dan
I need to know. Last night, I need to know the things that we haven't seen from the edits of the way that he has manipulated everyone else, probably the other girls
Chris
trying to kiss him and shit, because it's like, Anaya loves that man.
Dan
I. I cannot handle. She's obsessed with the way that we have. The Internet and the cast have villainized certain people, and this man just keeps dodging it all.
Danny
It's crazy.
Dan
Listen, I don't want anyone to be villainized because like I said, I want to keep. I want this show to be fun and to keep it cute, and I want everyone to love each other and be happy when they come out of here because I don't want anyone to feel attacked. But this. This guy has been pretty evil.
Chris
Also, when they went, like, he came up with a rose and a plate of eggs. Always forgiven. And matter of fact, Kada. Kada and Kada and Anaya are sitting there going, we're Team Sincere. They're doing this little dance together. How about Titi standing there, not joining in, being like, these are weird.
Danny
Remember, she was like, yo, he's. He's different. Like the person we met in Castle. Like, he's a complete.
Chris
The Casa girls know exactly who he is. And so does Corbin.
Danny
Yeah. Yeah.
Chris
Like, he's the only dude that knows. He's the only one that was sat there and was like, hey, like, I feel lied to. My trust is broken with this guy.
Danny
Dude, how about when Bryce is one of my favorite.
Chris
Bryce Bryce would be the one.
Danny
Well, he did have this moment, remember?
Dan
He thinks Bryce. I think Bryce is scared.
Danny
Me too.
Chris
Bryce told Melanie to go back to him.
Danny
I know, I know, dude. They're all. They're all like.
Chris
I think you have to. He has to win you back with his actions. Bryce, tell that woman. Fucking save that girl.
Danny
Save that.
Dan
He sees me in Switzerland, like, because he wants to be nice to his buddies and they sincere.
Chris
But sincere's not your buddy.
Dan
That's true. That's. That's.
Chris
And we saw that on tv.
Dan
I. I feel for Bryce because I think he's just being. Bryce is doing everything he can to stay out of the drama.
Chris
He doesn't deserve.
Dan
Like, when everyone is screaming, like, he's just like, kind of during movie night, he kept, like, leaning behind everyone being like, oh, my God.
Chris
Well, and his girl is m. Like, she can't. She can't wait to get into everybody else's situation.
Danny
She's been going.
Chris
Except for sincere.
Danny
Exactly. Bryce kept going. Like, my two favorite Bryce comments were one when he was talking about. And he was like, sincere is just stupid.
Dan
Who said that?
Danny
Bryce. Yeah, he was like, sincere, just stupid.
Chris
But he's not. But he's not just stupid. He knows exactly what he's doing.
Danny
That's what. That's the problem.
Dan
That is the fear.
Chris
That's why I was like, Bryce, you. Like, I wanted better out of that. Like, I understand Bryce wants to stay out of the drama, but, like, I would have loved for him to, like, I think he does know. I feel like he should. He should know. He should diagnose who. What's in serious.
Dan
I.
Chris
Him saying he's stupid tells Melanie, like, yeah, he's just trying. He just doesn't know how to convey his feelings. Instead of. He knows exactly what he's doing, which he does.
Dan
I. I get. I. I will never, ever, ever do anything but love Trinity. And I love. We talked about it. I love how she. She's always going to fight for her, for her friends. I think that's a great trait. I. I am with you on the.
Chris
It's weaponized, though, Daniel. It's not. She's not. There's no consistency. I don't hate. I lost eternity. I love you, but you're disappointing me.
Dan
Yeah.
Chris
That's what it is. I very disappointed. Disappointing for the most. Like, mature emotionally. Like the greatest couple on earth.
Danny
Yes.
Chris
Both be team sincere. Can somebody say something for Melanie that the.
Dan
My. The. The fear is. Of the edits that we've seen. I don't think that there's enough protection of Melanie and. And watching her just, like, cry so much the last couple episodes, and then people are like this. Yeah, go back to. Go back to the source that has made you cry.
Danny
Dude, I.
Dan
This feels dangerous.
Chris
Exactly, dude.
Dan
But I. The Bryce comment about sincere being dumb is when sincere's talking and he's like, dude, I've learned a lot. Like, I do awful things. Yeah, it. That shit scares me so much because I'm like, okay, either you are genuinely unaware of, like, the really poor treatment you've displayed to so many of these women.
Danny
And, dude, like, you were. And you.
Dan
And you genuinely have no idea. And now it. Being on camera and having to watch it and your friends calling you out. Not enough.
Chris
We don't know anything about sincere.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
So I'm. I'm curious. It's either that and this man has been truly blissfully unaware of his poor behavior and is now like, oh, my God. And will change, or he's incredibly aware and he's saying all these things. Like, that is. It's the second terrifying. Both are terrifying. I pray that it is the former, because I'm like, please become better for your life and for the people in your life.
Chris
It's the second one. We don't know anything about sincere because everything, every time he talks, it's weaponized towards whoever's in the room is on his side or he's going to be on your team. He's never actually stood on anything the entire show saying what you want to hear. That's all he says. Yeah, he is. We don't know anything about this man. Yep, he is. He is a. We are. Yes. It's very, very scary. Like, what is he gonna do?
Dan
He went the clip in movie night. That it. What an edit. I mean, I've been. I've been saying. I think the producers are kind of spooky with the way that they're pitting these people against each other. But the edit that they did, where it literally goes from him calling Melanie my beloved, one second later calling Amora my beloved, and I was like, oh, yeah, Jesus Christ.
Chris
And Anaya, pick a side, girl. You can't be both. Like, you can't sit there. You can't be the comfort. Because she's the first one. Every time she wants to come off as, like, I'm the comforter, I'm going to be the one, you know, I. The hero. I'm going to go to my friend first. You don't get to be the first one to go up to Melanie and be like, hey, you know, you're fine. At least you don't look stupid. Oh, take him back, though. And then the next day with Sincere, be like, sincere, you up.
Danny
Yeah, yeah.
Chris
Sincere you up, Pam. Sincere, that bicep. Sincere, you up. Yeah, you got to choose here.
Danny
I. You.
Chris
You can't be both. You don't get to be both.
Danny
It's crazy.
Chris
That's gross. That's really gross. And any girl would agree with me, that is the last person you want around your man. And you, especially if you're going to claim I'm your. Your friend. You're not my friend, dude.
Danny
Even sincere. This one was less bad, but sincere being like, I with you, like my best friend in here. And then the clip of him going to tt being like, casey's so happy with you.
Chris
This is amazing.
Danny
And Melody's like. Or I mean, Anaya's like, sincere, dude, no. Are you dead ass right now.
Chris
But. But she, you know, she goes right back. They're all. They.
Danny
No consequences for him.
Chris
You know what else it is too, is they all tell Melanie this because all those other girls beside, like, Trinity, I guess, has never really been tested because their couple is, like, set in stone.
Danny
They're perfect.
Chris
They're already dating. They're dating.
Danny
Boyfriend, girlfriend.
Chris
Dude, Bryce and K have the same dynamic. It's just very watered down. Like, Keda always goes back because Zach just. Zach and Kate. I mean, because Zach always chooses her. Like, Zach did explore. He did. Like, he might have taken that, but because he came back with nobody and chose Keda, all is forgiven, right? Because. Because Sincere moves the way he does, but he always. And. And Melanie even says it. He's like, just because you choose me is not enough for me.
Danny
Right? You don't just have to go to
Chris
the strip club and come back. Oh, at least you come back to me. Like, she's the only one that's seeing it. But these other girls are like, no, at least he chose you. And I was like, well, I didn't even get chosen. At least you got chosen, bitch. Your situation is way less than mine. It's like, no, no, no, no, no. Melanie situation is way worse than yours, Anaya. Like, what are you talking about? This guy is playing in her face again. Three and a half minute Netflix special. Yep. On the tv. And nobody said a thing for Anaya. But everybody wants to yell at Casey.
Danny
Dude, I wrote it down. She had such an awesome quote when she was so sad.
Chris
And I can't.
Danny
No, Melanie, Melanie, where she was like, you guys might remember. I can't find it. But it was like, the prize isn't being picked. Yeah. It's being respected.
Chris
Like, you keep going.
Danny
I picked you. I picked you. That's not my. What.
Chris
Oh, thank you so much, K. And I don't know what that Respect me, and I don't know what that means. And I was trying to. And I tried to spin it that way, but it was because she didn't get picked again. If Casey had gone up there and said no bad things towards Anaya, moved the way he did. Right. Was respectful about it. Did. Like, what if he just didn't say a word? The entire casa thing. Never said any of the disrespectful things. But he didn't pick Anaya.
Danny
He was still there.
Chris
Still would have gotten. He still would have gotten murdered.
Danny
I completely.
Chris
Because Anaya was also lying to the girls about how Casey. She was like, Casey hasn't. Hasn't been exploring.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
Or I think she said he has been explored. She said she said something to the girls. Oh, no. She said that he hasn't been exploring. Remember when the girls were like, oh, yeah, me and Casey are good. No, he doesn't want to explain explore any other girls. So then when. Even though that's not what he told her, he did tell her, I'm open. Still.
Danny
We're both open.
Chris
We're gonna explore. So her telling the girls, that set him up for failure. So now he gets back and the girls are like, you're a liar. You lied. It's like, no, I didn't. Like, Anaya is lying. She's. She's lying to you about how we were.
Danny
Dude, I was really. Hold on.
Dan
I, I do think. I think there would have absolutely still been a. If Casey had behaved like a gentleman in casa.
Danny
You.
Dan
I, you're right. I still think he would have caught hellfire for bringing someone back.
Chris
Oh, yeah.
Dan
I don't think it would have been as bad.
Chris
I, I, I would have cried and slept outside.
Dan
Absolutely. Absolutely. I don't think the attack would have been bad because I, I do think it's important to note Casey deserved some of the. That he got, which he owned.
Chris
He said a lot of stupid.
Dan
He owned up to it. Nobody I'm, I. But you're right. And that's where we're getting into, like, the emotions of. Still would have been bad for him, but I don't think as bad.
Chris
And I had joked about the grandma comment a day later.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
It wasn't. She does not care. These two are Friends, like, yes. And again, that's not to excuse any of the stupid shit he did.
Dan
Yeah.
Chris
Said in that Villa Corbin, too. Like, I feel like last week we. It comes across as like, we're defending their comments and the way they behaved. No, no, no, no, no. Yeah, they did a lot of. They didn't set a lot of. Not a little. A lot of stupid shit was done in there.
Dan
They were truly acting like a couple of frat boys on. On a bachelor party.
Chris
And I think since you're so much quieter about it, he gets away with it.
Dan
Yeah.
Chris
Like, those two. At least they're honest about it.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
You know, they. It was bad, but at least they were honest and they put it in front of our faces. Sincere is just kind of behind the scenes being a little fucking Emperor Palpatine.
Danny
Yep.
Chris
Pulling all the strings, dude.
Danny
My favorite. Zach had a couple cool moments this week defending the guys, and one of my favorite ones was about what you're just talking about, where he goes. This was post movie night when they're on Casey for everything he did, which was a lot. Zach goes, dude, when he got back, you hadn't seen movie night yet, and you went nuclear on this man. And they were like, well, we saw the sneak preview, and he was like. He did what?
Chris
One.
Danny
He, like, slapped TT's ass in, like, the sneak preview. Like we all did. Everyone made out in the sneak preview live stream that you got to watch.
Chris
And then Corbin walked in.
Danny
They murdered him and are now pretending. Your justification of murdering him is the movie night clips. You didn't even see that when you, like. Like, he was like, dude, the double standard is.
Chris
And they say food Corbin for coming in. And again, that's my. That's why I do think it still would have been just as bad. They just wanted anything to yell at because the girls know about Kenzie's and they still sat there and booed a man for being. They were on team Kenzie and they. And they booed Corbin, dude. That's how I know they're. They've been standing on nothing. All this.
Danny
The girls audibly went in the Anaya movie night when she was making out
Chris
with Carl, and it's like the first night.
Danny
Awesome. When you killed.
Chris
The double standard is insane. Yeah, it's.
Dan
It's. It's. It is brutal. But again, it's like there's just way too many emotions. Like, they've. There's. Gasoline has been poured on all of these emotions, and it turned into complete and utter mayhem.
Chris
And there's one emotion that none of the girls care about, man. It's Melanie.
Danny
Yes. Legit makes me sad, like, internally, because she's giving speeches, like, crying, like, I really do like this, man. And I'm like, I know.
Chris
How.
Danny
How could you like this person?
Chris
What?
Dan
But what makes me so sad is, like, these people are going to leave this place in what, like, two weeks?
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
And I'm like, I wonder if Melanie leaves. And because there's so many times during the day where I'm sure they're all having so much fun.
Danny
Right.
Dan
She might leave and be like, I mean, when. When Caleb left and he was like, this has been the best experience of my life.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
I was just like, damn. Like, I hope that's not true. Like, I hope that's.
Chris
I hope you've done something substantial in your life.
Dan
He's young, and I'm sure this is, like, a crazy experience, but, like, Melanie, I hope to God doesn't leave being like, that sucked, man.
Chris
Did you see Sister. Sister's Instagram story?
Danny
Who's she?
Chris
Like, Sister, Melanie's sister, like, posted an Instagram story about how the girls are being super unfair to her over sincere. How it's like, sincere is playing with my sister and Anaya, and these girls are, like, trapping her in this relationship. Like, Anaya can't run away. Or Melanie. Melanie cannot run away. She can't get out of the situation because every other person, all her friends are like, hey, he is a good guy. And so she posts something on her story. I don't know if it was last night or the night before. But, like, Anaya, you know, all the stands get, like, Anaya's fan base and Stan FC, like, attacked her in the DMs, attacked Melanie. Melanie's fucking real life sister is getting death threats in her DMs because she stood up and said, I don't think it's fair for Anaya to be telling my sister to go back to a man who's playing with her and then get the next day acting like her best. Like, she's the type of girl that, like, will settle. She couldn't get the relationship, so she'll settle for being the boyfriend. The guy gets to touch the thigh, right? Bicep. Like, I love doing it with Dano, right? I can't be with Dano, so I'm gonna be Dano's friend, right? I'm gonna touch Dano up a little bit. But it's very like, you don't get to be. And I don't get, like, she shouldn't be the one that has to comfort yeah, that's that's weird. Let somebody else do that. If you want to see her friend, do not be talking to me because it's all everything you say to me is not real. It's through the lens of being in love with sincere.
Dan
If you need any example of the worst corners of the Internet it is
Chris
Stan fan It is, it is a
Dan
it is the parasocial fucking clown Internet fan base Strangers sending death threats to Melanie's literal sister. Like do you if there's a person who is allowed to speak on the well being of one of the humans on the show it's probably their blood
Chris
relative, probably her older sister.
Dan
I I I implore people to not slide into the DMS of another of Melanie's sister.
Danny
Have you guys seen G's family killing him?
Dan
I good dude, I haven't but I
Chris
heard about that conversation with Jen was awful.
Dan
I was like bro, what are you he that was mean.
Chris
Just tell her you you're not into her but like to sit up there and waste her time and be like well I feel like I just brought it up and you were like you just didn't even hear me out. It's like bro, get the okay, let
Dan
me take you like interrupted her immediate
Chris
like Jen just so she grew on me man. I like Jen. I love I'm so bad for her.
Dan
Oh my God, I love Jen. Jen is such a homie.
Chris
The Kenzie call out that's why Kenzie
Dan
call out was incredible. It wasn't mean or petty. It was just honest truth and Kenzie didn't want to hear it because she doesn't want to hear anything that is calling out her behavior.
Chris
Easy Dano.
Dan
But listen I just I I no no no. I know I I I feel like there's been a lot of people who've been called out in the show and they've learned and grown and I need her to do that. Like I I I want the best for all these people and that's not the best.
Chris
Yeah, it's not the best.
Dan
And yeah man, like Jen is just me. What a brutal stick she was given in this show.
Chris
Like yes.
Dan
Jen came in, is just so nice and so chill and normal finds Gabe and they have an actual awesome connection.
Danny
The girl.
Dan
Even though Gabe was a slut girl's completely her. Yep. And we listen like that that was a joke by the way. But like Gabe, Gabe got around for sure. That was Gabe's thing. But like they were digging each other.
Chris
They were digging Each other.
Dan
And when they debted him, I was like, what are you guys doing? And the guys called out Kenzie and that. They were like, kenzie's done the same thing Gabe has done.
Chris
Yeah.
Dan
Zach is always like, why are you guys murdering Gabe?
Chris
And then from then on, anybody's lost four, it's Kenzie. Kenzie's just as lost for like, he's. He's quick every time.
Danny
Word. One more time. All right, let me take you guys through some highlights, the remaining topics. This is from the whole week. There was one of the. I think on the Sunday clip, Zach is literally on the couch humping Bryce. And I was like, daddy.
Chris
No, literally, he like, yeah, he. He literally.
Danny
He gets on the couch and he
Chris
gets him down and just gives him a quick one too, and then gets up. It's like, bro, what are we doing?
Dan
I. I love it, dude. Like, they're. They're true old school boys around with each other playing grab ass. I love it.
Chris
But Zach actually wants. He wants to get inside that dude.
Dan
Listen if.
Danny
And good for him.
Dan
Exploratory thoughts. Rights man. Like, oh, find yourself.
Chris
Tell Trinity first.
Dan
Yeah.
Danny
I did not like Zach in bed telling Kada I love you. And then the next day going like, we're not dating. And then she's like, you said the L word last night. He's like, that was a joke.
Chris
And I was like, bro, Dukeda is so arms, like, head over heels for this guy. I agree. I just.
Dan
I hate something to say about that one. I. Two of our very close friends,
Danny
Locks
Dan
and Lexi, are all out on Zach.
Danny
Really?
Dan
And it makes me sad. I think Zach, as we all have flaws in life and like we said, we all want what's best for everyone on this show. I think Zach is. I. I think he likes Keda just as much as she likes him. And I think he's a little. I think he looks at Kate. You are so beautiful. And I don't want to this up. And I think he's doing dumb things to try to protect himself. He's saying dumb things that he doesn't mean. Like those moments when he's like, we're not dating yet. He's being like, because. Do you like.
Danny
Yeah, yeah.
Dan
He's trying to do the like.
Danny
Jealous.
Dan
He doesn't. Yeah, but. But I think that's. Listen, like, people are young. You're trying to figure stuff out. It's the classic. I'm gonna say first that we're not dating, just in case you were gonna say.
Chris
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dan
I think that's what he's doing.
Chris
I agree with that. But I do, I do think Kale likes him more than he likes her. I don't think he's. She's his type. For whatever reason. I think if, like, you know, I don't know who his type is because these guys all have types and these girls all have types too.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
Maybe his. His type is like, I don't know. Like, I have no idea. But. But I don't. I think it's the kind of. I, I think he is doing exactly that. Daniel, he is self sabotaging and doing that whole thing. But I think it's also because, like, it is like, oh, this girl's super hot. He's trying to, like, embarrass her. It's some sort of weird kink of his. I don't know. He's.
Dan
I. I need him to be better. I need him to be way better.
Danny
I said before, I don't like him with Keda. I do like him with Bryce. Like, when he's with Bryce, I'm like, zach's the man. I'm like, I don't like.
Dan
Because there's.
Chris
There's no.
Dan
It's love with Bryce. There's no insecurity there.
Danny
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Dan
No, it's because he. Maybe it's because he's. That's his boy, dude. He knows.
Danny
He. Then show him your dick.
Dan
He.
Danny
Show him.
Chris
Show him your limp, guys. Show your limp.
Dan
He's. He's safe there. He doesn't feel like his heart's going to get hurt there. And he's, he's insecure and not in a bad way. Like, it's just in the way we all are.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
And he's worried, like, I don't want to fuck this up. And I think he's been making a bunch of dumb decisions and saying dumb things because he's trying to. He's self sabotaging as a result of trying to protect himself. But I'm like, dude, just show yourself to her and hope for the best.
Chris
Show yourself to Bryce. She's great. Your tally whacker with no blood. I want no blood. No blood, no blood.
Dan
I want it shriveled after a workout.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
White tripled after a workout.
Danny
White is the driven snow, dude.
Chris
Right after a cold punch.
Dan
I want that thing. Yeah, Yeah. I want that thing to look like a piece of pirate.
Chris
Is that thing gonna grow back? I hope. Yeah. Pirate booty is a real.
Dan
Yeah, it looked like a piece of pirate booty, dude.
Danny
I really liked that we got A little bit more french fry. This week, Trinity announced to Kenzie that Bryce french fried her, which I was very happy about. Good job.
Dan
Is that going down on each other?
Danny
No, no, it's fingering. Because they. And then Caleb later goes, what is french fry? Which I was like, thank you, Caleb. And she. I think Trinity goes DJing, so I think it's just fingering that.
Dan
Cool.
Danny
Good job, Bryce.
Chris
I got fingered last night. Like, let's just keep that to ours.
Danny
Come on, Danny. I like it.
Chris
I understand having sex, but, like, yeah, I got fingered last night. Good for you.
Danny
Yeah, that is good, dude.
Dan
Danny, we are. This is horny Island. Come on, Danny. If you're all sleeping in the same bedroom and you're getting frisky, we got to just be open.
Chris
If I'm eating eggs and fruit and I hear somebody go, I got fingered last night. I'm gonna audibly spit up my food. I'm gonna spit every. I'm like, that's gross.
Danny
You.
Dan
You're a dude. Don't be a.
Chris
That's gross. Save that for after.
Danny
I have a. Something Jen said here, but I just. I'm not. I want to ask you, in case you have it listed, it is your favorite quote.
Dan
No, I. I know.
Danny
Okay. Jen says to Gall, they're having a. Like, he. She's like, I'm touchy feely. And he's like, I'm not that much. And she goes, can we have a calm promise? And he goes, a compromise. And she was like, oh, yes, compromise. And I was like, a calm promise.
Dan
That did.
Danny
Yes, it did too. She said calm promise, and Gal had to go, I do remember it's compromise. And she was like, oh, compromise. A calm promise. Let's calm promise. That was incredible.
Dan
That might be worse than epitome.
Danny
A calm promise, dude.
Chris
Also, no, I. We got to give epitome the cake because we hate. We don't like sincere. We like.
Dan
Epitome was so bad.
Chris
Yeah.
Dan
Did you see when they were showing. It was an. In movie night. It was in. This was the most diabolical thing by the producers in movie night. It again showed that clip of sincere talking when he goes. I tried to emerge myself in this experience instead of immerse. And they literally put emerge in quotes. I was like, jesus, dude.
Danny
He said it in his defense of it out loud. Like, he said emerge again. He doubled down on emerge. And I was like, oh, my God,
Chris
I can't believe his first response was. But, like, talking about her and what was the guy that she was with? Corey Literally the first word out of his mouth was, but you're not perfect either. And like, he, like, yelled.
Danny
Defending himself was actually out of pocket.
Chris
Nobody stood up and said anything. I just, I can't.
Danny
Bryce leaned over and goes, you got to just say you're right, you're right.
Dan
That was so.
Danny
He was like, just say you're right, dude.
Dan
Just say you're right.
Chris
I can't get over that. I can't get over that. None of the girls saying any, Nobody standing up and being like, sincere. Stop. Sincere.
Danny
It was, it was literally just like Melanie taking grenades.
Dan
I do not understand how he wasn't Seward.
Chris
They all want to fuck him. Yeah, they all want to fuck sincere. That's what it is.
Danny
Then I put, Parmita and Corbin have left Love island and they're on their own show where they just fuck all day in Fiji and they don't care if they win or what the challenges are.
Chris
So here, honestly, I'm a big fan of this. Amazing.
Dan
Okay, can we be real if, like, like we're getting into the recoupling and, you know, more of that stuff? Dude, this, this show is completely off the rails for me. I, I, I've never seen to this point in a show so many relationships that feel like I don't even know if anyone likes each other. Yeah, those two, when they were like, you got to fix pick each couple and who is the least secure.
Chris
They have the best answers about anybody.
Dan
But also, Parmita and Corbin are the strongest couple and it's not close by a mile.
Chris
They're the most emotionally mature. They're the strongest couple and they are also the least in the drama like
Danny
they could do because they're not on Love island anymore. I'm telling you, they're just on a Fiji vacation and they're like, oh, and
Dan
if you dinner, if you want to yell at me and say it's superficial and they just like each other because they're hot, you go for it.
Chris
Yeah.
Dan
But at the end of the day, there they are. Whenever you cannot argue this, what I'm about to say, I really think you can argue it. Whenever there is drama going on, those two are fine. Like, they, they are just chilling with each other every night. When it shows them they're cuddling or kissing every time craziness is going on, they are just arm in arm kind of looking at each other like, damn, this is getting crazy. Like, they, there is no drama to be said or had about them. And since they got together, there's been nothing but Great stuff between them.
Chris
They're the only two.
Dan
I think it's worth noting that they're like, they're pretty strong. I mean, you cannot like them. You can think that again, they're superficial. And that's fine, you're all entitled to your opinion. But I don't think that there's many arguments. And it gets to the fucking pettiest thing I've ever seen. With Kenzie convincing Dylan to vote for them. And what she said was so like, dude, it was truly just her going, I hate Corbin for liking not much
Chris
more than choosing me. Yeah.
Dan
And everything she said, she just, I want her to be better so bad, like I said. And every time she talks about him, so much hatred is laced into her words. And I'm like, can you just stop being so hateful?
Danny
He lives in her brain. He lives in her brain.
Dan
Like when she was just to, to. Someone is asked like, why don't you think they're secure? And she's just like, because he just says he sees himself in her. And, and by the way, Parmita's response to that was hysterical, dude. But she was just like this, we are hot.
Danny
And I'm like, dude, I wrote Parmita saying, defending, saying, I'm sorry, I'm sorry. Insane in the circumstance.
Chris
I'm sorry. We are hot and obviously very good looking.
Dan
But that was insane. I was like, you're not helping.
Danny
Because they were in the right.
Dan
And then she said, but like, it's whether again whether true, because let's be real, Corbin has said stuff like that. He has been like, you know, like, we're perfect.
Danny
Yeah, that's.
Dan
He was like, I never thought I'd find someone else perfect like me.
Chris
I'm like, he is perfect.
Dan
Oh, dude.
Chris
I mean, let's just be.
Dan
I said this to Alice last night. I was like, that dude is so fucking hot. It's insane.
Chris
It's insane.
Dan
And she was like, she was like, really? And I was like, look at the guy, he's a fucking Adonis. Like, it's insane.
Chris
He literally starved out of his touch.
Dan
I don't like when he is. I mean, who gives a shit what I like or not like. But like, when he said stuff like that, I kind of rolled my eyes. But to like call that out as to why you don't think they have a good connection felt petty to me.
Danny
Oh, it was massive.
Dan
It felt like you just still are mad at him. And I'm like.
Chris
And I loved his response too, that neither of them really like, he, like, he didn't really like blow up. He just was like. I feel like that was out of spite.
Danny
Yep. Which he was right.
Dan
And he's a th percent right. How good did it look on them that when he had every opportunity to they didn't vote for Ken.
Chris
They. Those two had the best exclamat explanation for both selections they made. They had the best convo. Like, those two are so emotionally more mature than everybody else in the villa and they both are the only two who know who sincere is. Yeah, that's what it is. They are the only couple not under the sincere thirst. That's why when drama hits, that call is very impressive.
Dan
Dude. They're always very impressive.
Danny
Do when the couples are whispering or go ahead.
Dan
Just how funny was the gauntlet that Gall and Amora were put.
Danny
Dude.
Chris
All right.
Dan
It was like. I know the second that happened, Alison, I looked at each other and goes so. So everyone is voting for Goll and Amora. Like honestly, Ariana should have been like. And by the way, no one can vote for Gol and Amora because we know that they're dead.
Chris
After the third one, I was like
Danny
stupid from the show.
Chris
You gotta know your.
Danny
They made a meal of like Goll pick who's staying on the island and then they go. And then in five minutes we're voting for the least compatible cup. Literally in five minutes. I was like. It was just coupled up with Amora right now.
Dan
It was a disaster.
Danny
So dumb.
Dan
Because if Gall had picked Jen there,
Chris
the same thing would have happened. Exactly.
Dan
So he completely. That was the next day.
Chris
He kind of. I mean he kind of ran into that though. Like Jen was a pretty liked girl and a lot of the girls liked her because of the way she stood up to Kenzie. So when you as Gall go and have the most idiotic conversation I've ever heard in my entire life with. With Jen, you're going to look like a idiot amongst all the other girls because what does Jen go do? Tell all the girls? Like, this guy is. I don't even know what the fuck just got said. Like I literally 11 minutes just got wasted from my life. I don't know what the was said. So none of the girls were with like Doll was dead, bro.
Dan
He was dead no matter what. He was dead no matter what. And like it.
Danny
But.
Dan
But again I almost think that anyone in that scenario if like there someone is single, there's like a recoupling where two whoever it was, regardless of Gaul having a crazy Love island performance. Yeah, I think those two, that couple Would have been dead no matter what. It was a crazy setup where I was like, like, what is happening right now?
Danny
Yeah, same awful.
Dan
And it was funny how everyone kept walking. They're like, sorry. And Amora was like, it's still.
Chris
Listen. Yeah.
Danny
I really don't think Connor brought back Corey. Should have brought back Carl and Corey. Yeah, that would have been better than
Chris
Mora knew who Sincere was too.
Dan
Yes.
Chris
Like, so that's one less person on the island now who's figured out Sincere. All we have is T.T. corbin and Parmita.
Dan
Yeah, it's. The producers brought back Amora one. I mean, they said that that was an America vote, right?
Chris
No, it was just for the melody.
Dan
Sincerely, that it was. It was to show I should have
Danny
brought back Corey because you still get the Melanie Sincere. But then you give Melanie an actual real option who's not.
Chris
But then you make. Then you make Melanie look like the villain. You know, it's just like Melanie did. She. Obviously, everybody's done something wrong on the show. There's no. There's not a single perfect. Like, literally, you can't name a single character who doesn't have some sort of baggage to. Yeah, like, even. Even. Even Bryce tried to get at ka.
Danny
Yeah, yeah.
Chris
The last second before. But, like, Melanie obviously misbehaved a little bit at the start of the show, but, like, she has just been mistreated time and time again by every single person on this cast. And it's so sad to see. And again, the girls. It's not illegal to stand up for your friends and yell and then, you know, be, you know, taboo a guy when they don't choose your friend, that's not illegal. All girls do that. All guys do that too. But for you guys to do all that to Casey and Corbin and then be crickets for. For Sincere tells me everything I need to know about all of you. And that's really disappointing because I was rooting for a lot of you, but, like, that's Trinity. What are we doing? You don't get to be Ms. Comment Comment Connoisseur.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
When Kenzie goes up, be like, no comment. Yeah, no comment, bitch.
Danny
Dude, on that Kenzie thing, when the couples were on their circles whispering like, who they're going to pick. And we kept zooming in on all of them. They were all giving pretty good explanations of like, oh, maybe this couple, maybe. And dude, Kenzie goes. She goes, Parmita and Corbin, I think they're shit. Do you agree with that? And Dylan goes, yes. Because I was like, he just had
Dan
to be like, she said twice. She goes, permit and Corbin are shit.
Danny
There's a. And he was like.
Dan
I'm like, oh great. So you have a level headed explanation for this.
Danny
What are you doing?
Dan
Also, how awesome was it? We got the double. Double hander of. It goes to Bryce and Trinity and they go, Zach and Kada obviously.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
And then it goes to Zach and Kada and they go, Bryce and Trinity, get them out of here. I was like, these, these.
Chris
It's good. But again you have to take into account the edit. Like the producers are trying to make us feel like those guys are the end game. Both those couples suck.
Danny
No, dude, don't abandon Bryce and Trinity. Don't abandon Bryce and Trinity to complain
Chris
about the edit both ways. They are forcing that couple down. Why were they the only couple that didn't have a single movie night clip? And they around too.
Danny
No, they didn't.
Chris
Trinity, she doesn't get to sit here and be like, oh, I wasn't feeling it. She went into that photo booth.
Danny
But he's already seen that. He's already seen.
Dan
Yeah, he already saw it.
Chris
First of all, really grown.
Dan
I, I like much they are forcing them on us.
Chris
They are forcing us. And same with and Zach, but I'm not a fan of what's going on.
Dan
I do think that they love each other and that was a great moment. I guess both can be true. The producers are definitely forcing the.
Chris
I'm a fan of Bryce and Trinity, but it's gotten to a point on this show where a lot of people are taking flack and these two. Like, I, I just don't. I think Trinity used her immunity over the last few episodes of being in the favorite couple to completely misbehave towards, towards some people. And it was, it was very out of line. There's not a lot of. I don't, I'm not, I don't, I don't throw a lot of flack on Kenzie because I think I'm like, I'm out on her. I think it's kind of a hopeless cause this is who she is. I, I have some hope for Trinity still. Like, I, I like that. So I'm like, I'm holding her to a way higher standard.
Dan
You.
Chris
She did not move well at all. And Kate didn't either. And Anaya, I'm, I like, she's a. I don't know, dude. I'm, I'm tired of sincere and I feel so bad for Melanie. That's like been my big takeaway after the last few Episodes. I'm not even like I could care less about the whole Casey and I situation now. It to me it is all how the girls have mistreated Melanie and they are not being honest with her or, or they are I guess but they're all giving her the worst advice. Why is it Parmita and Corbin and she, and also the fact that she recognized it. The fact that she was like understoodable with Corbin and she told, she went out of her way to tell Parmita. Hey, that's what a real friend would say.
Danny
Yeah,
Dan
I agree.
Chris
Like ladies, this is what it looks like to be my friend.
Danny
Yes.
Dan
I thought that was so awesome by permita and man I, I, I, I agree. I'm just, I am so confused by what's, what spell has been cast over some of these people. I think when the emotions aren't high I'm, I'm obsessed with Anaya. I think Anaya is smart. I think she's a good friend.
Chris
Speak for yourself man.
Dan
I, I, that's, I, I am doing that. But obviously we for the last two weeks we saw gas get poured on emotions and things got too hot and heavy.
Chris
Gas get lit.
Dan
And then I, I look at when Kenzie has her moment of reckoning in the the movie night. Anaya sitting next to her being like this does not look good. Like she was being so real with her. She's being like this, she was a Kenzie. This does not look good. Like you look bad right now. You got to own up to it.
Chris
Why can't she be real like that with a knife? I, I or Melanie?
Dan
Yeah, that's what I'm, it's whatever.
Chris
Because she likes her man.
Dan
The spell that has been cast over like I don't blame her cuz something magical is happening. Dark magic.
Danny
Yeah, yeah, yes.
Dan
I cuz I see the way she sees it so truly with Kenzie and then that she can't see it. I'm like this man has true dark wizard powers.
Chris
She wants to him. She's no, she does. That's not fair. She does not get to be the first one to go up to Melanie and that's what her sister said. You don't get to be the first one to go comfort me and then minutes later go talk to my man.
Dan
I think that that is true. You're right.
Chris
You're not my friend. You're my man's friend.
Dan
Don't be sincere, make blanket statements like that because we don't know that that's true. We do Paints people in a bad way. We don't know that yet.
Chris
We 100% do. What are you talking about? It's been four episodes now.
Dan
You can think that, but you don't know it.
Chris
All right, whatever.
Dan
You don't know it.
Chris
If you want to be the biggest, I take the higher road on here and say being honest.
Dan
I just want people to be happy and fun. That's my high road.
Danny
You missed this last week, but there was more this week. How about sincere saying he minored in sign language, Bro. Just does the alpha.
Dan
Holy. I'm so glad you brought this up. I was losing my mind at this.
Danny
He goes, I'll teach you verbs. We can do inside jokes. Then he's like, here's the letters again. We.
Dan
All we're seeing is what is shown on tv. But what I have seen. My guy, you do not know American Sign Language. You know letter. You know the Alphabet.
Danny
You memorize.
Dan
You memorize the Alphabet, and that's great. But even when he was doing, like, he was like, I think it's. It's this. Like, you clearly just memorize the Alphabet one day, and you use this to try to flirt. That's what it looks like. I need. I need that dude to. To say a full I. I want someone to be speaking. I want him and translate it in sign language. Otherwise, he's not allowed to say he knows how to speak sign language. Again, that is another grift of his. And, like, watching him try to do it with Amora and Melanie in a way of flirting makes to me go like, this is a tactic you do, dude. That dude does not know how to speak American Sign Language, dude.
Danny
And then how about this one, bro? This killed the Amora and Gall, I
Dan
guess you don't say doesn't know how to sign American Sign Language because you don't speak.
Chris
Yeah, you sign dog doesn't know how to sign.
Danny
Amora and Gall are talking because he's trying to be like, I'm out on Jen. And then he's like, hey, I want to get to know you. So he's like. She's like, have you always owned your own business? And he's like, yeah, yeah, I did this, and I'm an entrepreneur. Like, what did you do? And she's like, my last job was. And she's like, I was a waitress.
Dan
Was this Amora conversation. G string.
Danny
People would put money. And I was like, I think Amora doesn't know she was a stripper. Quite literally. Amora's last job was stripper.
Dan
She got the job on Facebook.
Danny
Marketplace, Craigslist. Amora's last job was stripper, and she was unaware of the listing, and she just kept describing it, and I was like, yeah, okay, so you're. It was a poll. There was a stage. There was, like a poll there.
Dan
No, she was a server. But it. It sounds like it was kind of like a Tudor server type situation with
Danny
the money being put into there.
Dan
But she didn't strip, Chris. She didn't take her clothes off.
Chris
She was already stripped.
Dan
I will not let you guys paint with an inaccurate brush. There was no stripping.
Chris
Well, you don't. You don't get to say that. We don't know that. Anaya and Sincere aren't friends. That's very, very.
Dan
He's not. That's different. You said she wants to him, and
Chris
I'm saying, yes, she wants to him. What do you mean?
Danny
We know this, Dan.
Chris
I. They're like, she.
Dan
You don't.
Chris
You don't get to play both.
Dan
Disavow.
Chris
You can't agree that she doesn't get to play both.
Dan
Evan. Evan, can.
Danny
Can we get to the award?
Chris
You don't get to. You don't get to agree that she doesn't get to play both. You can't agree with that.
Dan
I. I don't. I don't.
Danny
I.
Dan
No.
Danny
Okay. Excuse my gen comment. Before the awards, the. You guys said she grew on you. The things I did. There were two gen. Things I didn't like. One was when Gall broke up with her. She went to the girls and was like, I told Gall.
Dan
It's.
Danny
I told. I just told Gall it's not going to work out between us. And I was like. Like, he literally dumped you, and you were sad. And then she came over and completely. 180 Lied was like, I just dumped Gall. And I was like, chris, correct. That's what happened.
Dan
But, yes, but of course that's gonna happen. Everyone.
Danny
I'm just saying. I'm just saying. Two things I didn't like about Jen.
Dan
That was, one, she's just trying to protect her.
Danny
And the other one was she did this. Like, I. This happens all the time. She's like, I hate men. When will it be my turn? And I'm like, so, do you want. You want your turn? You like men and you want a turn or you hate all men? Like, I just hate that comment. Anytime. Yeah. I'm like, all right. The two things I loved about Jen were, one, when she was chirping Gall to the girls, she goes, he brought me pancakes with no syrup.
Chris
Yeah, that was really good.
Danny
I would have dumped Gall immediately.
Chris
She's like, no. She, like, went on to go like, all the. All this knows how to do is make coffee.
Danny
Yeah, Yeah. I was like, that was amazing. And then, dude, this line. I don't know if you caught this, Dan. When she was leaving and Kenzie was doing her bullshit, Kenzie comes up to her and she goes, I'm so sad. You're literally my best friend. And Jen goes, oh, you're my best friend in here too. And like, the ad of in here there was so gnarly.
Chris
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Danny
She was like, you aren't my best friend. What are you talking about?
Dan
You know, I didn't notice that. I. I clocked that part too, because I. I loved that we did not get into. We'll. We'll do the awards now so we can all get out of here. But. But we did not get into the. Kenzie's reckoning at the almost getting voted out. Like, Zach and Kada had an opportunity to do the right thing.
Danny
Good point, Dan.
Dan
Do it. Yep, good. She's too bad.
Danny
Tv. They probably didn't let them.
Dan
To be fair. Caleb and Jaden, I. They don't have a great connection. So that. That, like, before it even started, I was like, it's Amora and Gall and Kaden and Jaden. Caleb and Jaden. This is happening. And. And that was the right decision. I think Caleb and Jaden are great, but it was just like they didn't have a great connection.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
When Jen called out, Kenzie was like, you would not be my friend.
Danny
That was amazing.
Dan
I. It was. It was not emotional. It was just logical and level headed. And I was like. And that's correct, Kenzie, and you need to fucking hear that. And when she was like, I didn't like that. That doesn't feel fair to me. And I'm like, own up to what you fucking been doing. You literally brought Dylan in here. Jen brought Gaul in here. And the next day you made out with Gall and like, lied about it, like, said you weren't gonna. And I'm like, dude, own up to the. Come on, be better. And then when that moment happened again, felt to me for the cameras, like Kenzie being like, so like, oh, Jen. I was like, stop trying to make everyone think that you guys are boys. And I was like, jen, please do not let her get away with this. So adding the in here, I was
Danny
like, my best friend in here too. It's like, nice.
Dan
Stand up for yourself.
Danny
Okay. Awards best friend from this week. I'LL go first.
Dan
Easily.
Danny
This guy's won before, but I'm usually him a Bryce here. Easily. Corbin, he was that dude this week for me. I just thought he's. He speaks the truth, like you always say. And he's so confident, but in a healthy way. Dude. And like, he's just like, he's level headed, you know, I guess that's it. He's just level headed.
Chris
He's just like, honest. He doesn't hold anything bad. He's. He's unable to mask his own emotions. They just pour out of him. So he says a lot of stupid shit, he does a lot of stupid shit, but he's honest about it. And that's why at the end of the day, everybody, like, nobody really has a problem with him because he's so upfront, he's so honest. He is not like, not giving all of himself to every single person in the village. You know what I mean? Like, he's not holding anything back. And also, he's also one of the first ones to call out anybody. It doesn't matter who it is. Like, you did this. I felt it was wrong. And also. So they're always silent. They take it very, like, they take it pretty good because they can tell it's like not manipulative.
Danny
Right.
Chris
He's just very honest and blunt.
Danny
Dan,
Dan
this was a very healing episode for me.
Danny
Yeah, we brought you back.
Dan
I'm close to that again. I don't like the online discord. I think people need to take a step back from their parasocial relationships and stop attacking people online.
Chris
Just stop standing people. Like, it's crazy. The people who stick with one character and no matter what they do, it's like, no, I'm staying with them. Like, you can. It's okay to get on a character and then build them up when they're right. Like if a character, If a character I really like up, like Trinity, where I felt like she did not, like, handle herself the way she should have in the, in the, in the movie night thing. Like, if you're going to have that energy for one person, have it for anybody.
Dan
I mean, listen, here's the deal. We're on an Internet show talking about. Yeah, yeah, a show. So like, I'm not being a hypocrite. Like, it's fun to talk to about
Chris
the show, but don't stand people.
Dan
Don't stand and attack people. Like, it's just like, let's have fun with the show.
Chris
Compliment when they do.
Dan
Well, these people are absolute legends for going on Reality TV and allowing their lives to be pulled apart. Don't, don't attack people. Like, it's, you know, I, My best friend, I think, is going to be Jen. Like, I just.
Danny
Okay.
Dan
I, I, I think Jen got such a brutal. She, she pulled a tough straw on the show.
Danny
She did.
Dan
And I, I just think Jen has through throughout the whole thing. I think Jen's been very nice, kind, and real and got very unlucky. And I just, like, I want Jen to get some flowers.
Danny
Okay.
Chris
Mine's gonna be Parmita because she's such a great friend and she's probably on. Honestly, she knows Melanie the least, but she's the only one that was the friendliest thing anybody's ever done for Melanie on this show. Yeah. We're five weeks in, four weeks in,
Dan
and I want to do a blanket. I, I think our threesome. Best friend is Melanie, because Melanie needs that.
Danny
I hear you. Yeah.
Dan
I met the way I had week one. I was like, Melanie's being a little too, like, I don't know. But now I know she has been under the spell of this fucking dark wizard.
Danny
She, she has actually had the worst straw.
Dan
Yes, dude. And it is time that people start coming to Melanie's defense and pulling the wool over her eyes. And she.
Chris
Exactly.
Dan
She needs more good friends and that we are. We are her best friends. And I hate how Melanie is our pick.
Chris
I hate how people keep saying, like, melanie. Well, why does she keep going back to him? She's tried to run away. Everybody keeps telling her to go back.
Dan
She's trapped.
Chris
She's. She seems, she feels crazy because she feels like, oh, I, I do want to run away, but because everybody's telling me to go back, like, maybe
Dan
I cannot hear another person look at her and say, he picked you. I'm like, like, dude, thinking is not the prize.
Chris
Anaya is going to do it tomorrow, by the way, and so will Kada and so will, like, I hope they don't, but they're going to.
Danny
Danny, biggest enemy this week.
Dan
We are. We are all saying the same thing here.
Danny
I might actually shock you guys.
Chris
Yeah. Biggest enemy this week.
Dan
We, we are part of the problem. Every, every week we let him get away with this. Dude, it is sincere.
Chris
Oh, sincere. Yeah, yeah.
Dan
I almost sincere is. Gives off the villain energy.
Danny
Okay, I'll say this then. Sincere is the villain. But my biggest swing this week from, like, I kind of like you too. I am now currently out on you is Keita. That was my pick. I thought Kate had a horrible.
Chris
No, that's fair. Keda, Anaya, and Trinity. It's all been very disheartening to see the way they have stood by Sincere and not had any. Like, no. Team Melanie and just stand by Sincere while also tearing down Corbin and Casey. It makes no sense.
Dan
They're all connected. Like, I. I think. I don't want to speak for you guys, but, like, three for me. Three women that I love. Kada, Trinity, and Anaya once loved.
Chris
I. I still can love right now.
Dan
Three. Three women that I love. I. I need. I. I think I need them to be better for Melon.
Chris
Oh, man.
Dan
Like, it's like Melanie. Sincere. Sincere needs to be held more accountable for what he has done to this woman.
Chris
You don't get to bring down Corbin and Casey for what they did. Stand by Casey, Sincere, while also shitting on your core four girl Melanie. Like, that's not okay.
Dan
Who was the other because part cor again? Corbin and Parmita. Indisputable. Great moment calling Sincere out.
Chris
I'm a huge fan of them now.
Dan
I thought that was really wonderful. Who was the other couple that did it?
Danny
Oh, yeah.
Chris
TT might have spoke up and said something.
Danny
No, no. Who voted?
Chris
Right?
Dan
Because they got another. They got two votes.
Chris
Oh, it was.
Danny
Come on, Danny.
Chris
I think it might have been Gall and Amora.
Dan
Oh, that might be. Oh, that would make sense.
Chris
Yeah. Dawn. Amora. Because Amora. Amora was like, I think you're right. It's never gonna work.
Danny
Yes.
Dan
Because Amora was saying something like. She was like. She was like, melanie, it's not you. Yeah, it was them.
Chris
Because Amora's not under the spell.
Danny
She knows it's Corbin, Parmita, and Amora.
Dan
And it's like, I. I hope that Alamore is gone. I hope that these other couples. I hope that these other couples that. Because, you know, what's definitely happening is actually, you know what I believe that are the three women that we love and need and want to love, continue to love. Anaya, Keda, and Trinity. They didn't vote for them because they don't want Melanie to leave.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
And I understand that.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
But I hope. Yeah, I hope that what Corbin and Parmita did and what Amora said makes them realize, you know what? That's valid and true and we need to hold him to a higher standard because she deserves better. That's what I need. Well, also because, like, I need them all to wake up from this spell because it's like, listen, do you want to save your girl and keep her on the. On the island? I get that. Like, here in the villa, it's not lost. Dan.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
If you want to keep her in the villa, I get that because that's your girl and I want her there too, but you can't let this keep going on, dude. Like, if this guy.
Chris
But then the next day, they Eggs in a rows and all the. His girl. Her girls are dancing for her. Yeah, we're team. It's like, they have got to wake up, dude.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
Because it's a problem. It's getting worse.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
What.
Dan
What makes me sad is I. I think there's a part of them that's doing it because they're like, let's. Let's try to make this better. We want to make her happy because, like, she's in a couple and they're
Chris
friends with Sincere too. They like, oh, we want to. We want to make it all work
Dan
from the beginning too.
Chris
Right. But it's like. But it's like, no, no, you do. You don't get to do both.
Dan
Yeah. This guy. This guy is. We need to put Sincere back in the doghouse.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
You've let him out of the doghouse way.
Chris
So I love how he's in the doghouse and his girl sleeps outside and he sleeps in the bed.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
And was it Corbin who was like, you need to sleep out there too, dude.
Danny
Yeah, he said that. He was like, well, she's going to be out there. That was hilarious when the owl was there, by the way.
Dan
She was like, I'm just trying to fucking have a break, dude. Get out of here.
Chris
You know who else I think knows is kc I think he knows who Sincere is, but Casey. And he's shown this in the past. His personality, his fastball is seeing something, knowing something's wrong, and then just shutting the fuck up about it. And he's gonna blow up later. I guarantee you, a little bit later. He's gonna step in randomly at some point, like, really mad, and it'll be all this built up resentment towards Sincere, and he's gonna be like, no, you're fine. It's gonna be like, whoa, where's this been? Casey? Just like, casa. Because that's kind of his thing. Like, he'll check it. And I also do think him and Corbin sitting by each other during movie night. Like, I. If Corbin feels that way, I guarantee you Casey does too, because they're kind of very close.
Dan
Yeah.
Chris
And tt, like, TT knows who Sincere is. Obviously they're a couple. Like, I guarantee you Casey knows. He's just not going to say Anything. Because Casey's not a, you know, a drama guy.
Danny
Quotes. Do you have any?
Dan
No.
Danny
Let's.
Dan
Or if you have some, you can do. I was gonna say we. We always just do all the quotes during the show so we don't need to waste time. But if you save them, just let them rip.
Danny
Three quotes. Jen, she goes, she had current gall blew up and she goes, if I wanted to get on by a man from Venice Beach, I would have just stayed in la. Awesome.
Chris
I love her. Incredible queen Jen.
Dan
I think G is if I see
Chris
him making coffee, dude, I'm spitting his face.
Danny
Yeah, dude, it's right. It's like right down the road from
Chris
dude, let's go right. Let's go right now.
Dan
I did not like the way he. He was so disrespectful to her.
Chris
Let's go chant. Team gen. Team Gen fc.
Danny
This one Melanie, all time code here to Anaya. Anaya was like trying to defend Casey or like she's going through the Casey drama. And Melanie goes, stop trying to build that man up. You playing Build a Bear with this, bro?
Chris
Yeah, like a. Like a real friend was, dude.
Danny
I was like, that was.
Chris
Is awesome. Remember when she said yesterday.
Dan
Sorry, wait, wait, who said that?
Danny
Melanie.
Dan
Yeah, yeah.
Chris
Can somebody say that to Melanie?
Dan
And she. She was talking about sincere Casey.
Chris
Kc.
Danny
She's like, stop trying to build this man. Playing Build a Bear.
Chris
And I was like defending Casey. And she goes, no, no, no, no, no. Don't defend that man. I like, that's what a real friend does.
Dan
Yeah, I love that.
Danny
And then this one. Dude, this was so funny. Such a good quote playing Build a Bear.
Dan
So good.
Danny
And then this. Corbin, this is now. Know what I'm saying this from now on, dude. He goes, I think he was talking to the boys. But he goes, I wish I could do his accent. Some people do it online. So funny. But he goes, am I a bad person for saying Kenzie is out the window? Probably, but I was with my boys. The energy was high. I thought everything was regular degular. Like, who's the man? Dude, the energy was high.
Dan
The AI jokes about him are so.
Danny
He thought everything was regular.
Chris
Hilarious human being, dude.
Dan
Every now and then when he gets like excited about something and his like his octave goes up a little bit, I'm like, what the is that? Like it's. He's so. One note.
Danny
Okay, Dan, Bottom two couples.
Dan
Oof. Bottom two for me are going to be Kenzie and Dylan. I. I just. I loved Caleb getting his moment to air out his grievances to her. And when he doubled down, he was like, Dylan, it has nothing to do with, with you.
Danny
Yep.
Dan
I, I think Dylan is a sweet boy. And I think he. I, I, I, I, I don't.
Chris
I'm gonna be next to go. That couple.
Dan
I, they must.
Chris
They will be.
Dan
She is a cockroach. The way she has survived on this
Chris
show so many times, they're not gonna let tt.
Dan
And I do not like the way that she does not own up to her actions. Again, Kenzie, I. I've got love for everyone on the show. I love you.
Chris
I want.
Dan
I would. I want you to be better. Except for you, Kenzie, too, too many, too many times. It's just been like, I don't know, man. Her immediately going and kissing gall just felt so rude to Dylan.
Danny
It was insane.
Dan
And then to watch Dylan cry, she was exploring. Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Danny
Allowed to.
Dan
I just like to watch him cry and then, like, the way he is. So quickly, like, I didn't like how Dylan was like, when, when Ariana was like, how do you feel about that, guys? And Dylan was like, I'm shocked by it. I was like, you're shocked?
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
That's my thing with the crowd being shocked.
Dan
Like, him to wake up. I'm like, dude, she was brutal.
Chris
He's playing the this.
Dan
I'm sorry. I, I don't believe that. Kenzie, like, when she keeps me like, we're great now. I'm like, you're great because you need him to kick you, dude.
Danny
Just complete.
Dan
I don't know if this shows bring in more bombshells. I pray to God they are just one. Because I'm like, I need to see how some of these people react.
Danny
Yeah.
Chris
And one more scent.
Dan
It brought me joy when they got three people voting for them because I was like, you need to see this. You need to see that you're not fooling as many people. Dylan has been very nice to you. I think you should be nice back.
Chris
That was good for her to see.
Dan
Yeah. And I. Let's. Let's believe that she will learn from it or hope.
Chris
Yeah.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
So they're in my bottom. And dude, I weirdly, like, really like everyone else. Like, I. As far as the base of the show, as we've said, this season is crazy.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
Like, I. There's a lot of couples that I'm like, I don't know what's going on here, but, like, I think Carl's the fucking sweetest man in the world, and I think he brings out the best version of Anaya and I like them together. I think TT and KC are great together. So I'm like, if. If I have to pick a bottom two. I'm sorry, I've not thought about this until this very moment.
Danny
Mine is Melanie, insincere Kinsey and Dylan. What the fuck is wrong? What is going on right now, though?
Chris
Zaddy's about to be like, what are you doing here?
Dan
I am so sorry. I am. They are so, like. He is such a dark wizard that I'm not even considering.
Danny
Yeah, he's got his spell on Dan now, literally.
Dan
No, no, he got me.
Danny
That shit's contagious.
Dan
Oh, my God. Thank you for pulling the wall over my.
Chris
I literally wasn't even considering a couple.
Dan
What am I doing? It almost got him Kenzie and Dylan. But far more is sincere in Melanie. And Melanie, my girl, it has nothing to do with you. It is all sincere. Melanie. You've done nothing wrong in your entire life. It is Melanie and sincere.
Chris
Absolutely. Just wish you had better friends.
Danny
Are those your two also? Those are my two.
Chris
Those are my two. Oh, yeah. And I tell you what, this is what's gonna happen, and I hate if it does. The show will be so unwatchable, but the four couples are gonna be the core. Like, it's gonna be Kada and Zach.
Dan
Bryce. Trinity.
Chris
Bryce and Trinity. And then it'll be Sincere and Melanie, which that is Anaya and Carl.
Danny
That'll be like.
Dan
That'll be four.
Danny
Go to the final or something.
Chris
Yeah. And that'll just be the worst show in history. Getting rid of Corbin, all the bombshells who've done well. And like, Corbin and Parmita are a great. Like, I think they're. They're really growing together. We've seen nothing but good stuff come out of them. And also too, like, Casey and Titi are like, that's probably to me. And nobody wants to hear it. I think those are, like, outside when. When you want to talk about, well, what are your.
Danny
You're up for top two couples. Like, what are your top two couples?
Chris
I like, well, if I can't say that because everybody gets pissy, but I do think they will last the longest when this show because, you know, it's always like, how long do the couple stay together outside of real life? Not. Doesn't last very long usually.
Dan
It's.
Chris
I think those two could actually, like, really be so.
Danny
Dude, my. I put Bryce and Trinity because they're still.
Chris
Yeah, that's one of them for me.
Danny
But then I. And I put Corbin And Parmita because they're amazing.
Dan
I think Corbin and Parmita deserve it.
Danny
But I almost put Casey and, like, Casey and TT are my three.
Chris
I was also so impressed with the way she was there for him. And, like, even though every girl in the villa, which is very hard for a girl to do when you're. Because you think anything about it as a guy, like, if all the guys in the group are, like, making fun of you for like. Or call, like, getting on your girl and you're gonna. It's very hard for a guy to sit there and, like, defend their girl. So vice versa, like, all the girls getting on her, very hard for her to sit there and defend her man.
Dan
How about.
Chris
I thought that was awesome.
Dan
How about that moment when Amora and Jaden were getting bounced and they all sat together and she was like, listen, I don't know anything about these people. People outside of the show. So sorry, I'm not. I don't care enough to do Internet sleeping on these people. But the empathy that I had for TT when she was like, I don't really have a lot of friends outside
Danny
of this, that killed me.
Dan
I almost cried. And, like, I was just like, oh, my God. So, like, yeah, you're right, dude. Like, to. It takes a lot of. It takes a lot of steel to see a. A house full of women all screaming at one person and you stand there and being like this, I'm gonna defend him. Like that was.
Chris
And if you guys get up, there's
Dan
a lot of strength.
Chris
I will, I will. 1v5. All of you skinny women.
Danny
Boom.
Chris
Besides you. Besides you. Melanie. Somebody take her away.
Danny
Yeah. Yeah. It's not her fault.
Dan
Melanie is not incredible. I'm the same way. I. Listen, I. I think Bryce and Trinity are. They're. I think they're both just such lovely people.
Chris
They'd have to do a lot to mess up.
Dan
And I just. I dig them together and I. Corbin and Parmita deserve the nod.
Chris
They are getting a good edit.
Dan
And I also think, like, just to go back to the, like, you know, people who don't like them for whatever reasons.
Chris
Yeah.
Dan
I think it's like, let's normalize and celebrate people being their own skin. Yeah. It's like, I. I don't like the word lustful that gets thrown around.
Chris
Like, it's such a buzz word this
Dan
year when I see two people who go, God, I think you're so gorgeous. Why don't we celebrate that? That's a beautiful thing. Like, they look at each other and they go, I think you're so beautiful.
Chris
You're hot.
Danny
Yeah, yeah. Like, dude, we're perfect.
Dan
You don't want the. You don't want to have vanity to the point where it's hurting other people or being shitty. And I don't think they.
Chris
I think she clearly doesn't feel like she's being used for.
Dan
Like, she think. I think they both think each other is gorgeous and I think that's a beautiful thing.
Chris
They both are very similar. They're both just like gym young gym heads who live in Miami and are hot.
Danny
Dude, there was one scene and they're getting to know each other and he's like, we should get to know each other. And he's like, you family oriented. She's like, yeah, me too. And like, they have like a nice chat and then he just goes and just smacks her ass in the thong. And I was like, but it'd be
Chris
one thing, but like, Parmita, like, that's her, man. Like, it's not like Parmita was like, I hate it. Like, that was. She was like, leaned in for a kiss. Like, these two rock.
Danny
I love them, dude. I love.
Dan
And like, there's a world where like, para. I'm pretty sure she's like a fitness influencer and it's like she puts a lot of work into that. Corbin, now she has a guy who's appreciating that that's maybe she loves.
Chris
Yeah, she like showed her him or showed her back and. And Casa. And Corbin was like, oh, damn.
Dan
Low key.
Chris
Like, he's like very. It's very hard to impress him. But he was like, Luki, yeah, you might be competing with me. Yeah, she probably really enjoyed that.
Danny
Yeah, I agree.
Chris
Like a guy that actually, like took the time to finally look at her back. You know, most douches would probably be like, muscular woman.
Danny
Yeah.
Dan
All right, let's let everyone get on with their Fourth of July, including Dr. Well, just us.
Danny
Everyone's listening on Sunday.
Dan
Yes.
Danny
We need to get up.
Dan
But listen, I will say it was like the. It. The. We had a couple weeks where I was like, this show's bumming me out. I think we could be seeing the light.
Danny
Let's go.
Dan
Yeah, we're sending all the love to the. All the cast, everyone, let's start getting better.
Chris
Yes.
Dan
Sincere. You are in the doghouse.
Chris
Sincere. We do. We wish the worst for you, buddy. We know exactly who you are.
Dan
You're stuffing you in the doghouse, sociopath. And you need to fucking be better. And let's also cast us fans. We're. We're. We're protecting Melanie.
Chris
Let's all get in Sincere. DMS.
Danny
No, no, no, no.
Dan
Do not send negative messages to people you don't know.
Chris
Do it to his family members.
Danny
Send supportive messages to Melanie's dm. Yeah, yeah, everybody DM Melanie.
Dan
Yeah, Melanie. And go, hey, we love you.
Danny
We love you, Melanie.
Dan
We love you, Melanie. We don't want you. We want what's best for you. And sincere. You're in the doghouse. You've got to be better, pal.
Chris
Send messages to Sincere. Send them to his sister and his mom.
Dan
All right, we love you guys all. Have a great. I hope you had a great fourth. Have a great Sunday. Enjoy the show. Let's hope everything keeps trending up.
Chris
Hopefully. Yeah.
Dan
Trending up.

Final Rally:
Bottom Line:
Love Island USA Season 8 is a powder keg, with manufactured chaos leaving real emotional consequences for its cast—especially Melanie and Casey. The Empty Netters crew takes the audience through every blowup, fake apology, and backstab, but with an underlying call for compassion, self-awareness, and keeping reality TV… fun.
