Which Love Island franchise is the best: the original UK or the upstart USA? British podcast host Will Njobvu and American magazine editor Nikki Ogunnaike are here to represent their homelands and do their best to sway Aminatou Sow to pick their show. Will says Love Island UK is real, raw, and vintage reality TV and finds the American version “a bit corny". Nikki says that Season Six of Love Island USA overtook the original with a diverse cast of people who had popular culture around the world in a stranglehold this summer. Which franchise will Aminatou declare the winner? Stick around to find out, and also catch some news about the show! Host: Aminatou Sow Associate Producer: Dani Matias Producers: Aminatou Sow and Rommel Wood Senior Producers: Joanna Solotaroff and Kryssy Pease Engineer: Noah Smith VP of New Content: Rachel Neel SVP of Weekly Content and Production: Steve Nelson Executive Producers: Stephanie Wittels Wachs and Jessica Cordova Kramer Music: Dan Molad Commissioning Editor: Rhian Roberts A Lemonada Media production for BBC Sounds
