For fans of Lele Pons: Suite 305 with Lele Pons
2026/10/05
Introducing Ep 12. Aniya Harvey: The Villa, Unfiltered from Suite 305 with Lele Pons. Follow the show: Suite 305 with Lele Pons Love Island fans, this is the post-villa debrief you’ve been waiting for. Recorded at Sofitel Los Angeles at Beverly Hills, Aniya Harvey checks into Suite 305 with stories she has never shared since leaving the show. From what really happened behind the scenes to the cast relationships that became even deeper once the cameras stopped rolling. But this episode goes far beyond the villa: Aniya opens up about who she is when no one is watching, the personal dreams and fears viewers never got to see, and the parts of herself she hasn’t talked about publicly before. She also delivers hot takes guaranteed to ignite your group-chat and reveals how she truly feels about becoming TV famous. Surprising, personal, and impossible to look away from, Aniya is out of the villa and showing fans a whole new side of herself. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

2026/09/21
No songs were harmed in the making of this movie, only ears. The Thor's Hour of Thunder pantheon firmly stands by the fact that the Confederate flag is only flown by racists, and if you disagree, you're not going to like this episode.

Ba Bah Ba Bah Ba Bah. We've got more numbered street content in 831: Vanishing on 7th Street, 1135: 22 Jump Street, & 1139: 26 Summer Street. The next episode will be 13 going on 30 (2004).
1142: 28 Days/Weeks/Years Later

1141: Supergirl (2026)
2026/07/09
Look in the sky! It's a bird! It's a plane! It's a modern super hero movie that has nothing to do with numbers year, except that Krypton is atomic number 36 on the periodic table of elements. SPOILERS! You may also like 1012: Supergirl (1984) and 1088: Superman (2025). We will resume numbers year with the 28 Days/Weeks/Years Later trilogy.
