Week 8: Is Alex a VIP Incel? with Alexandra Heaminsley

It's all sex, lies and videotape this week in the Love Island Villa. That might be as it seems, but if you are still telling people it's a fascinating depiction of human nature, you are listening to the right podcast.This week Harriet Minter (journalist and feminist) welcomes fellow journalist and author Alexandra Heminsley to dissect the shenanigans of a bunch of 20 somethings trying to get it on in the most intense dating exercise ever.Of course, it's more complicated than that as this week Harriet and Alexandra realise that you don't really want to know the results of a lie detector test even though you think you do. Alexandra rants about Alex and Alexandra at an epic scale. And Harriet just wants more Danny Dyer.Harriet writes and broadcasts and you can find her here... always: @HarrietMinterOr for the "long-read": http://harrietminter.comAnd you can find out more about Alexandra Heaminsley cos she is awesome here http://www.alexandraheminsley.com/Check out her new Judy Murray book and everything.

A weekly recap of the hit ITV show, Love Island, from a fan and her friends (spoiler; this isn't the one with last year's winner, sorry). Each week we'll chat through our favourite bits of the show, who we're loving and hating, the deep life lessons we've learned from it that week (just who should pay for dinner? can you actually have good sex while holding down four corners of a duvet? what is the correct way to ride an inflatable swan?) and our hopes and dreams for the couples (that they all make enough from flogging protein shakes on Instagram to buy their very own villa). Join us on a Monday morning as we get under the covers with the our favourite summer reality show, Love Island.  Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
