Little Bit Leave It
Little Bit Leave It
Ben and Becka
A Love Island UK podcast for American viewers focused on cultural translation, questionable scholarship, and lowbrow humor. Every week, we dive into a (hopefully) interesting aspect of British culture or history--whether it's the most popular sexual fetishes or legends of Celtic mythology. We also spend way too much time talking about a specific episode, go over any new slang terms, and review the islanders' questionable fashion choices. New episodes publish every Saturday on Patreon, and then two days later on Mondays everywhere else.

A Little Bit About Casting
Why do some cast members on Love Island know each other? What makes contestants memorable while others are forgotten? Why do we feel "connected" to certain islanders? Why do some people cope well with the stress of being on Love Island while others can't handle tit? For insight into these and other questions, we interview Cathy and Joel from Worldwide Casting, a Los Angeles-based casting group that's hired by reality television production companies to find new and interesting people to be on TV.

Little Scandalous Bits!
We hope you enjoy this re-cast of three of our favorite featured segments from the past season of Little Bit Leave It! First, Becka gets into the fine details of the love triangle between Princess Diana, Prince Charles, and Camilla Parker Bowles. Then, Ben tells us the fascinating story of the Kray Brothers, notorious London gangsters. Finally, Becka undresses the seedy and tacky criminal clown behind the Dreamboyz, the touring male revue. This episode is a whole lot of fun and definitely not for younger audiences! Adults only beyond this point! Join the Little Bit Leave It community on Patreon starting at $2 per month!

Love Island UK Season 7: the Summer in Review and the Grand Finale
It's time to wrap up Love Island UK Season 7 with a neat little bow! We're once again joined by guest co-host Logan as we examine all of the summer's major narratives and themes and use enough critical theory to preclude any of us from running for school board! What does it all mean??? Then it's time to talk about the live final, say who we think should have won, tell you how all of your favorite islanders feel about Brexit, and give out our season-end awards!
