We're four episodes into this season and it's all a mess we can't wait to watch unfold. This episode Christina and Brenna talk about the words Davide uses to try to describe Gemma and the different words men have used to describe them in the past. Luca's behavior is interesting, Tasha seems to be self-sabotaging, and Ekin-Su is on a mission to shake things up, arguably more so than any other islander in Love Island history.

You're So Interesting

So much has happened in such a small amount of time. Some of us at What's the Craic started this season not on Team Andrew, but after this episode could it be, Give-Me-An-Andrew-2022? Tasha and Andrew seem to be headed in the right direction, while Luca seems to be planting all of his seeds to see where his garden will grow. We see our first islander leave the villa as well as the first official recoupling for the season. Don't worry, Christina and Brenna talk about it all in this episode, so stick around!

Ekin-Sue Me For Touchin' Ya

Things are starting to heat up as we see our first bombshell of the season steal an islander and leaving another one single in the process. In this episode, Christina and Brenna talk about how different this group of islanders behave in comparison to other seasons...it seems the boys (surprisingly) are more closed off than the girls and honestly, we're here for this group of empowered women. There's a big discussion on who is the snake in the grass, the importance of being funny, and our very first date in the villa! We're only left with thinking one thing though: we want more Indiyah on our screens!

This episode Christina and Brenna talk about the potential love triangle with Luca at the forefront; the Italian stallion and who he decided to couple up with; what the islanders had to declare to one another in the first challenge of the series; and of course, all the tangents and antidotes that Brenna and Christina have to offer.

Hold His Feet to the Fire

Our couples are being sent on their final dates and we love to see it! Who had the better date so far? Faye &amp; Teddy or Kaz &amp; Tyler? One thing we don't love to see though is Liberty crying. If you hurt our girl, you hurt us! While discussing this episode, we are given more dating advice from the ladies who may not be completely qualified to dish it out...maybe. Jake and Liberty may be on the rocks, but we'll leave you with one sentiment: anybody who makes you feel like you're not enough - get out of there.

Basura

We're getting down to the wire, so it's all just banter at this point, ladies and gents! And....on that note....THE BABIES ARE BACK! Christina and Brenna heavily discuss all things baby related - and maybe a little too much. While they may go off on tangents, one thing we can be certain of, Teddy is proving to be the perfect specimen once again.

It All Started With Betty

The unofficial Love Island podcast from an American perspective. Recapping full episodes with our unadulterated opinions, questions on British vernacular, and predications for future episodes.

As much as we love the drama, at this point it seems a bit unnecessary. Of course Christina and Brenna will still talk about it, though. This episode starts out on a low with the results of the islanders' votes, but then goes to a high with the talent show! This was one of the messiest talent shows to ever grace our screens and honestly, we  felt transported back to middle school with some of the performances. With another dumping on the horizon, we genuinely don't know who's going home...

Yeah, No I Hate Beans

We're given a lot in this episode actually. There's so much sharing of perspectives and people respectfully hearing others opinions and don't worry because Christina and Brenna discuss it all. There are just two questions remaining after watching...Do you know anyone who doesn’t like pasta?! AND, do YOU know what asparagus is?

Goodbye to You

It's the day after hurricane Faye and things seem to have settled a little bit in the villa. In this episode Christina and Brenna discuss Liberty putting her feelings first and Millie and Liam rekindling their romance. Both Christina and Brenna have their own heroes of this episode and it might not be who you would expect.

He's Now Walking Around Like a Monk

This episode in particular was extremely heavy and hard to watch. Generally speaking, this podcast is light hearted and both Christina and Brenna enjoy bantering one another and making jokes, but they both thought this episode dealt with a lot of issues that we cannot take lightly. We must always remember that the people on Love Island are human beings with real feelings and not characters and that a lot of what is shown has been edited for our entertainment. This episode of the podcast does discuss the importance of mental health and being there for your loved ones, so if you are struggling we encourage you to reach out to any of the resources provided below. National Alliance on Mental Illness: 1-800-950-6264Crisis Text Line: Text SUPPORT to 741-741
