This season is COOKED! Hard to get through but fun to discuss. The full 2hr episode on Patreon which you can buy for a once-off fee, or become a monthly subscriber. We discuss Ep1 all the way through to half way through Ep5. We end after the couples meet and before they go on holiday. There are no spoilers beyond Ep5. We discuss: 

• First Impressions of the Show (we hate it but are committed lol)
• Leo and Brittany: manipulation, coercion, Jewish Guilt, epigenetics
• Hannah and Nick D: 
• White beauty standards, dating as a racial minority
• Taylor and Garrett's Relationship: “secrecy” and privilege 
• Monica and Stephen: America’s relationship with blackness and the one drop rule
• Marissa and Ramses: gender dynamics, masculinity, emotional availability, and dating Trump supporters
• Marissa and Bowden: Balkan rizz, green flag military service and emotional distance
• Tim and Tyler: Boundaries, Emotional Purging and using women as therapists
• Black Love vs. Struggle Love
• Tim's Red Flags and Boundaries
• Ashley and Alexandra: not them being accessories to their men! where’s their screen time?
