Plus, analysis of Viall Files interviews, behind-the-scenes revelations from Love Island USA, and what these contract-violation-level disclosures reveal about the modern reality game.Subscribe to Game of Roses on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/gameofrosesPatreon: https://patreon.com/gameofrosesMerch: https://gameofroses.orgListen on Apple Podcasts: http://bit.ly/gameofrosesListen on Spotify: http://bit.ly/spotifygameofrosesABOUT GAME OF ROSESGame of Roses is the reality TV podcast that breaks down The Bachelor franchise, Love Island USA, The Traitors, and more as a game.
