194: Iain Stirling spills Love Island secrets!

With Pete away, Sam is joined by Iain Stirling! We hear about his unlikely journey from studying law to becoming one of the biggest voices in British TV.

Sam also begins fanboying (shock) when Iain tells us about his twitch channel. Of course Sam has now asked (forced) Iain to game with him.

The conversation then turns to all things Love Island, with Iain revealing what it’s really been like taking the show to the US and sharing some of his favourite contestants from across the years.
