HELP! I Suck at Dating

We just wrapped our Love Island USA watch party and boy do we have thoughts! We gathered our group straight to the mics to first discuss the unnecessary amount of French kissing that lasted throughout the entire episode. And then there were those uncomfortable sex questions, the constant doors, the bombshell additions and the silly, highly produced opening to start season 8 off with a bang.

Jenny Mollen is doing damage control following a controversial post showing her intertwined with her 12-year-old son on the bed, with her in-between his legs; the original caption saying the “eldest son is the most toxic relationship of your life.” While Mollen took the caption down, her essay she posted days ago is making headlines as well. Mollen is in the middle of divorcing actor Jason Biggs of “American Pie” fame and penned an essay with the first line reading: “Call me old-fashioned, but I only want my sons to marry women with dead mothers” and ending with “I pray that at least one of them is gay.”

We introduce you to the islanders competing for love on Season 8, premiering tonight on Peacock. From a DJ and model to a Paralympian medalist to a daughter of an NBA player, many of these 20 somethings will soon become household names and online fodder for the next six weeks. One contestant even drew the ire from his town’s mayor, clearly upset that he quit his job as police officer to be on the reality show. We also discuss the show’s success rate at finding lasting relationships, you might be surprised how many couples from previous seasons are still together.

Here we go again, but this time, an islander who used the n-word on newly resurfaced social media posts is being removed before we even meet her. Two videos from 25-year-old Vasana Montgomery have been circulated where she is seen saying the n-word playing a video game and rapping to a song in the car. Last season, it was Yulissa Escobar who was kicked off after the first episode when videos of her using the racial slur were discovered. Later, Cierra Ortega was kicked off for videos showing her using an Asian slur.
