Because of the challenge, he did not masturbate when the reporter-presenter Maria Veitola he had a night because of filming.
– This would probably have been the fact that I would have decided to go then at night, because I jerk off every day. But then I didn’t jerk.

Saarinen revealed in the program that he was in love with the reserved man in question. Saarinen’s host couple Katja Lintu asks on the podcast if he’s still in love. Saarinen does not want to comment on the matter, but says that he told the man about his feelings before the episode was published.
During the episode, Saarinen regrets that he used his screen time in Veitola’s program to announce his love.
– I get a little angry with myself for the fact that I’m actually talking about a reserved man on national TV. I give this damn show some attention.
Saarinen feels that he failed in the sense that by talking about his feelings, he fueled people’s interest in his love life.
– I felt disappointed as to why I, who have appeared so much in the media, did that. I didn’t do it on purpose – there was no attention seeking involved.

– People have really strong opinions on the matter and have condemned it very harshly, both him and me, says Saarinen.
