Meet the Minneapolis cast for "Love Is Blind" Season 8

The latest: The local cast, unveiled Monday, includes a 30-year-old wine bar owner, a former Timberwolves cheerleader, a one-time Gerber baby model, and two oncology nurses.

How it works: Contestants on the show, now entering its eighth season, "date" via pods and commit to getting engaged without seeing each other.

• After spending time together IRL, they decide whether to actually marry in the finale.

Reality check: While the premise is a hit with viewers, the show doesn't have a great track record when it comes to producing love that lasts, as Axios has reported.

Go deeper: Meet the contestants via their official bios — complete with astrological signs! — and this season teaser video.
