Mean, I 182 00:10:19,880 --> 00:10:21,559 Speaker 2: binged it in a matter of I don't know, it 183 00:10:21,679 --> 00:10:24,400 Speaker 2: was it ten days or something. I binged the entire season. 184 00:10:24,679 --> 00:10:25,720 Speaker 5: That's an extreme sport. 185 00:10:25,920 --> 00:10:30,480 Speaker 2: It was absolutely an extreme sport. I see it that way, Tess, 186 00:10:30,720 --> 00:10:33,920 Speaker 2: you actually wrote a piece for Refinery twenty nine. The 187 00:10:34,000 --> 00:10:37,520 Speaker 2: title of the piece love Island usas Amaya and Brian 188 00:10:37,760 --> 00:10:41,079 Speaker 2: represent the Latine love story we really needed. And so 189 00:10:41,760 --> 00:10:44,360 Speaker 2: just again for people who did not watch in the end, 190 00:10:44,520 --> 00:10:48,560 Speaker 2: a show that is not always been really inclusive and representative. 191 00:10:48,960 --> 00:10:52,960 Speaker 2: On this season, you have two Latinos who end up 192 00:10:53,000 --> 00:10:56,000 Speaker 2: falling in love and it feels special, Tess. What made 193 00:10:56,040 --> 00:11:00,120 Speaker 2: it so special with Amaya, who's Dominican and Brian and 194 00:11:00,200 --> 00:11:02,120 Speaker 2: who is Guatemala and Puerto Rican. 195 00:11:03,280 --> 00:11:06,760 Speaker 5: I'm Brian, I do real estate and I also bartend nightclubs. 196 00:11:06,960 --> 00:11:10,319 Speaker 8: If you hate me, that's a youth cower fan. It 197 00:11:10,520 --> 00:11:12,560 Speaker 8: was really a perfect storm. 198 00:11:12,800 --> 00:11:15,480 Speaker 6: We had Amaya come in as a bombshell episode for 199 00:11:15,800 --> 00:11:17,839 Speaker 6: people didn't really know how to feel about her in 200 00:11:18,240 --> 00:11:21,920 Speaker 6: the context of this siloed villa. We quickly got to 201 00:11:22,240 --> 00:11:24,400 Speaker 6: no one love her and all of her Amaya isms, 202 00:11:24,480 --> 00:11:26,920 Speaker 6: like calling the villa a bag of skittles. 203 00:11:27,120 --> 00:11:28,640 Speaker 5: This is like a bags of skittles. 204 00:11:28,880 --> 00:11:32,240 Speaker 6: There's different flavors, different backgrounds, different connections. 205 00:11:32,960 --> 00:11:34,920 Speaker 8: America fell fast and hard for Amaya. 206 00:11:38,000 --> 00:11:40,000 Speaker 1: When we come back, there were a lot. 207 00:11:39,880 --> 00:11:43,599 Speaker 9: Of memes about all of the Latina representation. 208 00:11:43,960 --> 00:11:48,640 Speaker 10: People were calling it Rubbian Island and the real in reality, 209 00:11:49,080 --> 00:11:52,599 Speaker 10: you were just reminded that actually our world is not 210 00:11:52,920 --> 00:11:54,719 Speaker 10: as shiny. 211 00:11:54,520 --> 00:11:57,160 Speaker 3: As beautiful, as progressive as we think it is. 212 00:11:57,720 --> 00:12:10,800 Speaker 1: Stay with us, yes, hey, we're back. 213 00:12:10,920 --> 00:12:13,560 Speaker 2: And before the break we were speaking with Juliana pache 214 00:12:13,920 --> 00:12:18,680 Speaker 2: Tes Garcia and mont Moralis Garcia about how one Latina 215 00:12:18,800 --> 00:12:23,160 Speaker 2: on Love Island USA one America's heart. Now we're going 216 00:12:23,240 --> 00:12:25,760 Speaker 2: to get into the USA franchise of the show and 217 00:12:25,840 --> 00:12:29,400 Speaker 2: how it differs from the UK original and how race 218 00:12:29,800 --> 00:12:31,400 Speaker 2: plays into all of it. 219 00:12:32,000 --> 00:12:33,319 Speaker 1: Let's get back to the conversation. 220 00:12:37,400 --> 00:12:41,359 Speaker 2: So the British original Love Island UK was never explicitly 221 00:12:41,440 --> 00:12:46,040 Speaker 2: targeted to non white audiences, but Love Island USA has 222 00:12:46,160 --> 00:12:49,439 Speaker 2: become increasingly more racially diverseed. This is a point of 223 00:12:50,000 --> 00:12:52,360 Speaker 2: discussion for a lot of people in a point of analysis. 224 00:12:52,720 --> 00:12:57,640 Speaker 9: Juliana, Yeah, you know, I was a very religious UK 225 00:12:58,200 --> 00:13:00,920 Speaker 9: Love Island watcher. It took me a long time to 226 00:13:01,040 --> 00:13:03,800 Speaker 9: get on the USA train. So I started with season 227 00:13:03,920 --> 00:13:07,240 Speaker 9: six and I do think that they had intentions to 228 00:13:07,360 --> 00:13:09,760 Speaker 9: diversify for sure, and I think that paid off. And 229 00:13:09,800 --> 00:13:14,000 Speaker 9: I think season six had such incredible breakout stars with 230 00:13:14,200 --> 00:13:18,400 Speaker 9: such infectious personalities, and I think they just struck gold. 231 00:13:18,920 --> 00:13:21,920 Speaker 9: And then in season seven, obviously they doubled down. There 232 00:13:21,960 --> 00:13:25,800 Speaker 9: were a lot of memes about all of the Latina 233 00:13:25,960 --> 00:13:31,440 Speaker 9: representation on the show, from Amaya to Andreina. 234 00:13:31,000 --> 00:13:33,800 Speaker 6: To Shelley, Caribbean Island was the name of the game. 235 00:13:33,840 --> 00:13:36,000 Speaker 6: I feel like people were calling it Caribbean Island. 236 00:13:36,160 --> 00:13:39,199 Speaker 9: Yes, totally, and it makes sense, I guess, from a 237 00:13:39,280 --> 00:13:43,800 Speaker 9: marketing standpoint and from a reach standpoint to have audiences 238 00:13:43,880 --> 00:13:47,240 Speaker 9: that feel like they can identify with these figures. 239 00:13:47,800 --> 00:13:52,960 Speaker 2: So, Monica, I'm just wondering if you were a fan 240 00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:56,520 Speaker 2: of a Maaya. She wasn't part of the original group. 241 00:13:56,559 --> 00:13:59,280 Speaker 2: That's why she's called a bombshell. She sent in to 242 00:13:59,440 --> 00:14:03,199 Speaker 2: disrupt any couplings that may have happened. Were you a 243 00:14:03,280 --> 00:14:04,439 Speaker 2: fan from the very beginning? 244 00:14:05,120 --> 00:14:08,200 Speaker 3: I have to admit I wasn't a Maya papayas stand 245 00:14:08,240 --> 00:14:10,080 Speaker 3: from the beginning me either. 246 00:14:10,200 --> 00:14:10,440 Speaker 1: Girl. 247 00:14:10,640 --> 00:14:13,880 Speaker 3: I'm with you because when you watch these shows, you 248 00:14:13,960 --> 00:14:16,360 Speaker 3: want to be with the Ogs. I wanted to stand 249 00:14:16,480 --> 00:14:20,280 Speaker 3: Shelley Landria Hooda. That's like such a big plot of 250 00:14:20,360 --> 00:14:23,040 Speaker 3: the show. You want the Ogs to win, you want 251 00:14:23,080 --> 00:14:25,600 Speaker 3: to see them at the finale, and you want to 252 00:14:25,640 --> 00:14:29,200 Speaker 3: watch their love story. But where are the pledges of love? 253 00:14:29,600 --> 00:14:32,480 Speaker 3: The men need to be making more pancakes and yearning. 254 00:14:32,640 --> 00:14:35,240 Speaker 5: We need yearning, we need like on your knees in 255 00:14:35,320 --> 00:14:38,960 Speaker 5: the rain. There is none of that exactly, And honestly, 256 00:14:39,120 --> 00:14:39,920 Speaker 5: I have a hot take. 257 00:14:40,000 --> 00:14:41,960 Speaker 9: I think that the only reason why the men cook 258 00:14:42,000 --> 00:14:45,600 Speaker 9: breakfast for them in the morning is because production probably says, 259 00:14:46,200 --> 00:14:49,000 Speaker 9: be productive and do something because the women have to 260 00:14:49,080 --> 00:14:52,520 Speaker 9: get ready, so you have this thirty minute window, like 261 00:14:52,720 --> 00:14:53,440 Speaker 9: make a pancake. 262 00:14:54,200 --> 00:14:56,760 Speaker 2: Okay, morning guy. Let's get back to Amaya. Though she 263 00:14:56,920 --> 00:14:59,760 Speaker 2: wasn't an original cast member, she was a bomb show. 264 00:15:00,480 --> 00:15:02,040 Speaker 1: Praise Yourselves. 265 00:15:03,080 --> 00:15:07,920 Speaker 3: Abroad, your popshells capturing the Fella. So when Amaya came in, 266 00:15:08,120 --> 00:15:10,960 Speaker 3: I just I felt like she could come, she could go. 267 00:15:11,600 --> 00:15:14,960 Speaker 3: But when we'd see Love Island form in the formula, 268 00:15:15,080 --> 00:15:17,440 Speaker 3: we saw she ended up becoming a star. 269 00:15:17,800 --> 00:15:20,080 Speaker 9: And she has so much personality, and she has so 270 00:15:20,200 --> 00:15:23,640 Speaker 9: much spunk and flavor, and she's so clever with her 271 00:15:23,720 --> 00:15:24,760 Speaker 9: little sayings. 272 00:15:25,440 --> 00:15:26,280 Speaker 5: I feel free. 273 00:15:27,120 --> 00:15:30,520 Speaker 6: I feel like I could fly like the pigeons back 274 00:15:30,560 --> 00:15:31,440 Speaker 6: in New York City. 275 00:15:32,000 --> 00:15:33,760 Speaker 2: I do love the fact that you all are like 276 00:15:33,880 --> 00:15:37,280 Speaker 2: these super smart journalists and writers, and that you're actually 277 00:15:37,440 --> 00:15:40,480 Speaker 2: talking about a TV show like, oh, they're really in love. 278 00:15:40,840 --> 00:15:41,440 Speaker 1: It is funny. 279 00:15:41,720 --> 00:15:43,960 Speaker 2: And that's why I would say to my kids, I'm like, you, guys, 280 00:15:44,040 --> 00:15:48,880 Speaker 2: it's not real. But this season also brought some interesting 281 00:15:49,120 --> 00:15:52,560 Speaker 2: elements to the conversation. There were a couple of other 282 00:15:52,760 --> 00:15:58,920 Speaker 2: Latina contestants, both of them removed this season for past 283 00:15:59,280 --> 00:16:01,880 Speaker 2: use of racist language online. 284 00:16:02,440 --> 00:16:03,640 Speaker 1: This girl saying the inward. 285 00:16:03,720 --> 00:16:05,800 Speaker 3: There's literally a podcast of her saying the inward. 286 00:16:05,840 --> 00:16:08,240 Speaker 6: There's been a lot of stuff circulating online about Sierra 287 00:16:08,440 --> 00:16:11,880 Speaker 6: and her racist c slur that she said. 288 00:16:12,040 --> 00:16:14,920 Speaker 2: Both of them are Latina. It really brought to the 289 00:16:15,040 --> 00:16:18,440 Speaker 2: four the way we talk and the words we choose. 290 00:16:18,840 --> 00:16:24,040 Speaker 2: And then even beloved Amaya Papaya is being talked about 291 00:16:24,200 --> 00:16:28,360 Speaker 2: like is she maga? Has she internalized racism, internalized oppression, 292 00:16:28,400 --> 00:16:29,200 Speaker 2: et cetera, et cetera. 293 00:16:29,400 --> 00:16:32,480 Speaker 4: Amaya has now deleted or deactivated her Facebook account from 294 00:16:32,480 --> 00:16:36,479 Speaker 4: back in twenty fourteen after some old problematic post resurface. 295 00:16:36,680 --> 00:16:37,520 Speaker 5: This is the first one. 296 00:16:37,640 --> 00:16:40,840 Speaker 4: It's titled facts about skin colors. The next one they 297 00:16:40,880 --> 00:16:43,920 Speaker 4: found Amaya like this picture of Trump and Milania celebrating 298 00:16:44,000 --> 00:16:44,680 Speaker 4: very anniversary. 299 00:16:45,200 --> 00:16:46,560 Speaker 1: Juliana. Let's get into this. 300 00:16:47,200 --> 00:16:50,120 Speaker 9: I wasn't surprised at all by any of the Islanders. 301 00:16:50,240 --> 00:16:53,760 Speaker 9: I mean, I give everybody the benefit of the doubt. 302 00:16:54,200 --> 00:16:57,520 Speaker 9: So when Unissa entered the villa, I was like, Okay, 303 00:16:57,920 --> 00:17:01,760 Speaker 9: she's white, Cuban, she's from Miami. I could make assumptions, 304 00:17:01,800 --> 00:17:04,320 Speaker 9: but I'm not going to and mind you, my mother's 305 00:17:04,320 --> 00:17:07,960 Speaker 9: side is from Cuba, so I have direct experience and 306 00:17:08,080 --> 00:17:11,400 Speaker 9: the same thing with Amaya. I know that she's Dominican, 307 00:17:11,520 --> 00:17:16,680 Speaker 9: She's clearly Afro Dominican, she's light skinned Sierra. I had 308 00:17:16,960 --> 00:17:19,920 Speaker 9: nothing to go off of. I had no preconceived notions there. 309 00:17:20,280 --> 00:17:22,720 Speaker 9: But yeah, when I saw all of these things resurfaced, 310 00:17:22,800 --> 00:17:26,160 Speaker 9: I was very disappointed in the A Maya News because 311 00:17:26,280 --> 00:17:29,040 Speaker 9: I was standing for her so hard. 312 00:17:29,440 --> 00:17:31,919 Speaker 5: She's so lovable in so many ways. 313 00:17:32,320 --> 00:17:34,800 Speaker 6: What I will say is ninety nine percent of us 314 00:17:35,160 --> 00:17:38,520 Speaker 6: who were on Facebook at fourteen years old, I curiously 315 00:17:38,600 --> 00:17:40,320 Speaker 6: did a deep dive on my own. I was like, 316 00:17:40,480 --> 00:17:42,800 Speaker 6: what's on here? From two thousand and you know, Sequadan, 317 00:17:42,880 --> 00:17:45,359 Speaker 6: you like. I looked at my wall. There are people 318 00:17:45,720 --> 00:17:48,680 Speaker 6: from my middle school calling me Mexican. I'm Argentine, and 319 00:17:48,720 --> 00:17:50,880 Speaker 6: they're saying it as a joke, and I'm like, oh Jesus, 320 00:17:51,080 --> 00:17:52,119 Speaker 6: and is not to excuse the. 321 00:17:52,119 --> 00:17:55,040 Speaker 8: Actions of a fourteen year old who has autonomy. 322 00:17:55,240 --> 00:17:57,040 Speaker 5: It's just we've never lived this before. 323 00:17:57,359 --> 00:17:58,480 Speaker 1: Mondy Gott, how did it hit you? 324 00:17:59,000 --> 00:18:01,600 Speaker 3: I think it's the thing about reality TV, particularly with 325 00:18:01,760 --> 00:18:05,800 Speaker 3: Love Island, the racial diversity of the cast is how 326 00:18:05,880 --> 00:18:08,440 Speaker 3: we've progressed in how we understand TV, who gets to 327 00:18:08,480 --> 00:18:12,120 Speaker 3: be on TV, who's represented. But on the flip side 328 00:18:12,119 --> 00:18:14,879 Speaker 3: of that, it also shows how conservative we are, and 329 00:18:15,800 --> 00:18:18,600 Speaker 3: it is such a tough thing to watch, I think, 330 00:18:18,800 --> 00:18:21,920 Speaker 3: especially when you love the characters, you are just reminded 331 00:18:22,520 --> 00:18:27,000 Speaker 3: that actually our world is not as shiny, as beautiful, 332 00:18:27,160 --> 00:18:30,800 Speaker 3: as progressive as we actually think it is. That all 333 00:18:30,880 --> 00:18:32,960 Speaker 3: of that baggage comes with us, and it comes with 334 00:18:33,119 --> 00:18:33,960 Speaker 3: us in reality TV. 335 00:18:38,800 --> 00:18:52,440 Speaker 2: We'll be right back after a quick break. Let's jump 336 00:18:52,560 --> 00:18:57,280 Speaker 2: back into the conversation. So, Mornica, can you talk a 337 00:18:57,320 --> 00:19:02,040 Speaker 2: little bit about the importance of the gender dynamics because 338 00:19:02,080 --> 00:19:05,480 Speaker 2: I think here in this group a lot of progressive thought, 339 00:19:06,080 --> 00:19:09,360 Speaker 2: but some who would say it's just really so objectifying 340 00:19:09,480 --> 00:19:13,199 Speaker 2: of women's bodies.

I didn't 344 00:19:20,600 --> 00:19:22,239 Speaker 3: think they were attractive until the end. 345 00:19:22,560 --> 00:19:25,199 Speaker 8: That's being kind of Monica.

There's one season 359 00:20:04,840 --> 00:20:07,040 Speaker 3: of Love Island where a woman chose a woman to 360 00:20:07,200 --> 00:20:10,560 Speaker 3: couple up with, and like, it changes the dynamics, and 361 00:20:10,640 --> 00:20:14,600 Speaker 3: it's like just explodes the show. It doesn't have wiggle 362 00:20:14,640 --> 00:20:17,360 Speaker 3: room for people to be queer. If a man went 363 00:20:17,359 --> 00:20:19,240 Speaker 3: in there and he was bisexual, I think it would 364 00:20:19,280 --> 00:20:20,000 Speaker 3: irrupt the villa. 365 00:20:20,520 --> 00:20:23,320 Speaker 2: All right, So I want to go back for a moment, Tess.
