Description: A grown man in a swimming pool, fully clothed, hiding under a deck. That's the scene that opens Anna Peele's new book, and, depending on who you ask, the moment Love Island became one of the biggest shows in the world. Author Anna Peele joins Kaate to talk about Enter the Villa: The (Unauthorized) Reality Behind Love Island, her two-year investigation into how a canceled 2005 disaster became a cultural juggernaut, what nearly a hundred interviews taught her about why the show works on us, and what it costs the people who make it.
