I'm talking hair so shiny, it's stopping people in the streets. No, seriously, it's giving double take, which is why we're so excited to tell y'all

about the new LaMelaure gloss collection from the girlies at Tresemme. Gigglers, this is the shine we've been searching for. I don't know how this LaMelaure technology works, but it's insane. And Gigglers, we've got you too, because Tresemme partnered with us to bring you 1-800-GLOSS, a special bonus episode of Giggly Squad

where Hannah and I give advice on all things hair and giving gloss. Check out the episode and grab the LaMela gloss collection today because I'm officially declaring this spring gloss season. What's up, gigglers? Gary, fix your Wi-Fi. Manifest that shit.

We can't be managed. Gigglyler. Gary fix your Wi-Fi. Manifest that shit. We can't be managed. Giggly Squad. I mean the day just got away from me. Welcome to Sigley quad. That's Giggly Squad reverse. Welcome to squad Giggly. We're running out of names. Wait first first of all, you look, you're glowing. Like you're stunning. The sun is coming. It's just like tan. Yeah, but the sun is coming in.

It is giving angelic. It's giving angel. Angel numbers. And your hair is like perfectly like bed head, but like chic waves. Wait, do you love me today? Yeah, I love when you're pretty. It's so toxic people don't talk about how sometimes our relationship is toxic because I love you more

when glam. Well this is the problem though I know that and then there's like this rebellious side to me where I thought I was gonna lose you this weekend because I had to text you my nails that are like they're grown out So bad wait, you know what energy you get we never start a podcast normal like we have literally before we're like, okay We have so many things to talk about this wasn't discussed. You know what energy you give I'm so scared the energy of the girl in middle school who only wore a Ponytail her entire life and then all of the sudden

we hit ninth grade and she wore her hair down and it was like, everyone was like, oh my God, did you see Hannah has her hair down? And it's like instant glow up and that's like, that's you. Wait, that's how we were raised though with those movies where like the girl would have curly hair and glasses and then she'd straighten her hair, take off the glasses and everyone would be like, she's amazing.

Yeah, and it was like she was pretty with glasses. Like what, she didn't have a shield on? Yeah, she didn't get a face transplant. But yeah, I sent you my gross nails and you wrote how do you wipe and I said it's not easy. And then this was just a coincidence. I realized I was wearing your shoes that I had stolen. Yes, a year ago.

I had like a year ago, which is like now they're mine. That's just for math. That's the rules. If you don't ask after a certain couple months, they're mine. Statue of limitations has is off. But I do have to say it's because it's Zara. Like if they were like expensive shoes, that would be mean. But like if I had a nickel for how many Zara shoes

you've lost around the world. You also needed a pair like that, and I feel like they come in handy for you a lot. That was a charity case for you. Yeah, that was me doing a good deed. That was when we went to the open last year. Yes, yes. But I had a huge open sore blister on my foot,

just from honestly one bad shoe walking in it, it'll do me in for the year. And I sent that to you. And you ignored the grossness of the blister. I did. But then I sent you Chanel flats that I found to try to cheer you up. Right.

And then, so. I know there's a balance to how much ugly shit I could send you. Before I just like stop responding. Yeah. Yeah. Before you snap. Before you start taking it out on your loved ones. But when I see something really gross, I just love getting. That's the thing I just love getting,

that's the thing, I love getting reactions from people. That's why I'm like the annoying older sister. Like I love annoying my brother and he's like, why are you annoying me? I'm like, cause you keep reacting. Stop reacting and I'll stop. You love putting me in situations to see like what I'll do. Well, our YouTube series, someone writes,

I feel like this is Hannah tries new things and makes Paige come with her. Someone writes, I feel like this is Hannah tries new things and makes Paige come with her. No, I'm not kidding. You literally act like I am your Barbie doll and you take me different places and you forget my shoes sometimes and you like stuff me in different bags and you forget what bag I'm in. You're like, now she's going to play baseball and actually we're going to shave her head

off. It's tough. Oh my God. I'm in you're like now she's gonna play baseball and actually we're gonna shave her head off It's tough being someone's human Barbie doll, but it's so fun and you've grown and learned I've grown and I've learned so yeah The last episode that came out was us going to a vintage store Which made me so happy because Paige was not about it in the beginning. Yeah, but it was so Funny, it's also very funny to watch ourselves back because I'm like, I'm so monotone sometimes and I guess I never realized that. I laugh too much.

Like I have- You enjoy your life. Wait, but you said something before we started recording which is like so pertinent, I think, to our YouTube series. Pertinent. Yeah, as I take it. I was in such a different headspace filming that YouTube series. I feel like I truly was trying to survive day to day.

What actually adds to the tension of the YouTube series is- The lore. Paige is fighting for her life. For my life. Paige knows that there's a show that night that she is hoping she doesn't have a panic attack with and I'm like, let's go yoga aerobics and she's like, okay. And I'm like, instead of staying home and spiraling and being scared, but the truth is is after your first panic attack, I wholeheartedly believe this.

If you didn't get back on stage the next day, you may have never gone on stage again. It's like riding a horse. You gotta get back up on the horse. That's what Marilyn Monroe said. Yeah, that's what Molly Mae did. Yes, oh shoot, I have to finish Molly Mae's docu, which is her basically like self launching

getting back with Tommy. Yeah, Tommy Fieri, but we're happy if she's happy. We're happy if she's happy. How was your weekend? Oh my god, I've been playing so much tennis. I knew that, I felt that. I'm in my tennis phase, there was like a high school kid. People here like oh she plays tennis. There's a high school kid in the yeah in West Hampton That's like oh he plays in the neighborhood in the neighborhood and I was like, you know what fine bring him in. Mm-hmm. I

How old see like 16? Okay. I gave him no mercy like it was at the point He was like, please if someone put me in a room with a 16 year old boy i felt like that fun substitute teacher i was like hey but this is the thing with sports it levels the playing field it doesn't matter what generation you are we're playing it's deuce motherfucker, let's go. And Dez was like, hey, let's calm it down. It's a Saturday, it's relaxing. I said he's come on my turf and he's challenged me. He's come to my home. In my personal space with his weird testosterone levels.

In my sanctuary. In my place of calm. And Dez was like, can I talk to you for a second? He's like, you need to calm down. And I was like, he's coming for my throne. So I whooped him. Yeah. Whooped him.

If he's listening, I'm sorry. Start him young. It was very motivational for me. I talked to his dad and his dad was like, this was good for him. And I said, if that's why I'm on this planet is to beat up men. That's why I'm on this planet.

And then I hit with my friend Madison today and it was just like gossip girl talk. But I'm trying to, I told you, I'm trying to be healthier this summer. I don't know what that means yet, but we'll figure it out. Like, yeah, just moving your body more. Just, that's what people say when they get in their 30s they go honestly, I just move my body more

I'm like Shut the fuck up. All I'm doing though is watching all the gigglers and They're beautiful houses and pools and vacations tagging us with the book No, the girls were reading this weekend. And I'm obsessed with that. Tell me about your weekend. I had a good weekend. I was around a lot of random babies. Like obviously they're random if they're not mine.

No. You go, babies are so random. Babies are so random. Like where'd you come from? Why are you here? Like ask me one question about myself. I'm like, are you staring at me? No, literally.

Why do you have a stank face? Are you pooping? I met one baby and he only spoke Italian and I'm not kidding, he judged me the whole time. Like I feel like he was looking at me like I'm better than you and I would agree. I just watched the Rome tennis tournament which I feel like we should go go we love making these kind of plans

we should go to Rome next year and The umpire is Italian. So after the point they're like Quindici quindici guandaccio. No, not that just quindici It's so cute hearing Italian. It was so cute coming from a miniature voice. No, I know. It was just adorable. I was like, are you ordering chicken parmesan right now? I'm not a waiter.

I was with another little baby, and she asked if she could paint my nails. And look. You're obsessed. I'm obsessed. I love the girliness. And I'm like. I love a girl with a creative vision. And I'm like, here love the girliness and I'm like. I love a girl with a creative vision.

And I'm like, here's the thing though. Jacqueline literally just left my apartment yesterday. And so like, I'm trying to explain to this four year old that I just got a $250 manicure. And if she puts sparkles on my nails, I will freak out. Can I talk to you for a second? I love the thought behind it. I'm loving the creative vision

and I think you're gonna be, you're gonna go places in your life. See your aunt with her bare ass gross nails, go do it on her, okay? Cause I'm not your girl. I'm not your experiment. This isn't a school project. But I felt like I was growing

and I was becoming maternal in that moment because I said, you know what, have at them. And I let her put sparkles all over my nails. And then when she wasn't looking, I ran to the bathroom and wiped them off so that they wouldn't stick to my nails. But she didn't know about that part. She didn't notice.

Okay, that could have been bad. It could have been really bad. She could have been like, mom. When I was with Lois, she found my like press-ons and she started putting them on my toes. And honestly, that was hilarious. Like honestly you needed it because I'm sure one of them was bruised and falling off.

One of them was on its last day. Yeah. I have a question about Jacqueline. Has she asked about me? No, she hasn't, but she like. Cause I haven't seen her in a long time. Okay, well we could tell. We know you haven't seen her.

No, cause she gets worried that if I haven't seen her, I've like gone rogue, like I've killed the whole family or I've like done my own. She actually brought me like a little gift. Jacqueline and I went to the next level. She brought me like a little gift and she was like, oh, just like, she was like, oh, this is just for you. And she gave me like some edibles.

And I was like, Jacqueline. So Jacqueline and I stepped it up a notch. Wow, suddenly. I didn't realize having the same nail girl was gonna be my favorite thing that we share a nail girl. And usually we're on the same schedule. She's never got, maybe she knows. It's cause I don't do edibles.

Yeah, it's cause she knows you don't take edibles. Yeah. Maybe she'll bring you like a pair of Crocs or something. Maybe I've been talking to her too much. When she comes over. Cause I actually, if I think about it, I did ask her probably one too many questions the last time she was there.

And she likes that you guys just watch TV Sometimes less is more we catch up on our shows Um, here's one thing I wanted to do just say quickly because I feel like i've been giving the girls updates on my egg Freezing I finished I finished my period that you get like after it. It wasn't that bad It was a solid like seven days though. Do you always get your period after it? Is that like a thing? Yeah, you get it, yeah. And it's like a-

Were you nervous you weren't going to? Well, yeah, cause I wasn't getting it. And what made me nervous was I was like, is my body just absorbing all of this? What, that can't be good. Where's the blood going? Yeah, where's it going? Yeah.

And they were like, if you don't get it, just call us and we'll give you something that will make it come. And I really, you know me, I didn't want to take any drugs. I was just like, I don't want to do that. I'm so anti-birth control and anti-pharmaceuticals. Jacqueline can roll in with any edible. And I'm like, yes, thank you, Jacqueline. But you're like, nothing doctor prescribed, please.

Please, nothing with Big Pharma. I really am against it. Except betas. Well, obviously. So I finished my period. Here's what I wanted to say, because I don't know how I should honestly invest in, what is it, thanks,

because they saved my life while I was having this crazy period because you know me and UTIs, I can't wear tampons anymore. And I was bleeding so much that I was like, shoot, I have to like. You were bleeding for the whole year. Like you're making up for lost time.

No, I was making up for lost time. And so I would like put a pad on the thanks period underwear and they saved my life because I don't know what's going on. I can't put any brand of tampon in me anymore. My body just immediately is like, nope, thank you. You're so pure. You're like me with cocaine. Yes, I'm so pure.

Not in Miami though If we're talking about our periods I want to just ask the gigglers since there are doctors at this point and they are doctors Don't tell me the gigglers aren't I've seen them. Wait What are you gonna remember that? Yeah, I will I Cannot believe the amount of girls just backing up post-baby clarity. Oh, that clip! Are you? I was fat. I read everyone. I read literally every comment. What were they saying consensus wise? So half the girls were like, in that moment I realized I married the right man. Like I cried for literally two years after I had a baby because I didn't look the same.

My husband had to like carry me to the bathroom to like shower me. And then the other half was like, I knew before I got married, I shouldn't have married this guy. I had a baby and I stared at him and was like, I fucking hate you. And so they were like, not only is it post-baby clarity, but whilst you're pregnant, you're also getting those thoughts of like, is this the right guy?

People were saying while you're pregnant, you start to see the signs too. Yeah. While you're pregnant. But as I'm getting older, just in general, you just see how men are so replaceable. And when you're younger, it's so like, oh my God,

look, wherever you are, figure out the right dude, and then get rid of him if he's not it, period. Slay the boots down. No, like literally set him on fire. Who cares? Because there's a thing like girls are now moving in together and like mothering each other's babies. I kind of love that.

I kind of love it. It's just because, well, because girls aren't settling anymore. Like girls used to have to settle so fucking hard because they needed money. Like they needed to survive. You weren't allowed to have a credit card. You like couldn't live.

Well now, I also read something, I don't know if it's true. No, it is true, but I don't remember the source. But basically that because women are now making more money, we're investing into things that women care about. And all these just companies and causes that women care about are now getting stronger. So that's a positive.

Oh, interesting. Like different charities and stuff. Different charities and yeah, things you support that you wanna see more of and then your interests, cause it's basically the money shifting a little bit. It's women in the arts. It's women in the arts. Also if everyone,

I feel like everyone's talking about postpartum depression. Before it was this big announcement, did you know that Cindy Crawford said 20 years ago, she had postpartum, and I might've made that up, but that's how it was, where now everyone's like, and then when the postpartum hit. Yeah, everyone has it. I remember asking my mom,

this is probably like a couple years ago, like, oh my God, did you have postpartum like at all? Because I just, when I got my cat, I was like, oh, I'm gonna have postpartum. I was like, I don't. Why does that make you laugh? Because when I got Daphne, the first day I looked at her and I was like, I don't love you. I don't know you

You go first of all hello First of all, hi, how are ya? How was your day? Welcome to my home And I remember asking my mom and she said well, yeah Every she was like but we didn't call it that. She was like, everyone gets, and we called it the baby blues. That's so much cuter. And I was like, and what you just,

she was like, and then one day it would just go away. Like you just lived with it, and then you were like, oh I have baby blues. Postpartum's PR team was so much better in the 90s. They were like, baby blue time, baby blue. The baby blues. Baby blue blues. Well, did you, I have a question.

Did you have, a lot of girls also say after they get married, they have a little bit of depression. Did you go through that? I was very just calm after it. I think it's because sometimes when you put your wedding on such a pedestal. To pedestal. And it goes by so fucking fast,

you're like, wait, and we're done? I didn't even do it. Yeah, I didn't even. That planning I did for a year and it's done. I remember feeling like it was way too fast and being like, wow, I spent a lot of money on that. But I remember feeling calm and a little relieved. Cause I also had a little, like I don't,

I told you that kind of, the wedding attention is like. That kind of attention is not your vibe. I don't like that vibe at all. I'm not like, look at the guy I'm fucking. Yeah. But with postpartum depression, one more thing. Wait, calling someone's wedding just a party of look at the guy I'm fucking is.

This layer in my head, I just was like, hi aunt whatever. This is the guy that I let have sex with me. And I'm glad you're here to celebrate it. I hope we stay together. That's all a wedding is. Hey dad, I want you to formally meet the man that will be inside of me later. On this last episode of Burner Phone,

Dez was telling me that when my dad was alone with him for the first time, he basically was like, she's your problem now. That's exactly how I would think Danny would respond. And like, obviously he loves joking, but it's so funny that my dad was Learcock blocking me. Yeah.

Most dads would be like, please take her. And my dad's like, I developed a twitch while coaching her with tennis and it's finally wearing off. He's like, here's a number for a hotline. You're gonna need it. Are you sure you wanna do this? But I also think Des likes a challenge.

So Des was like, okay. But anyway. That's funny. I deal with depression. I know I'm funny. I deal with depression. I know I'm brave. I deal with anxiety. Do you think that when postpartum depression hits, it's gonna be like two negatives create a positive

and I'm gonna be like, it cancels it out. It's gonna be me on estrogen. You're gonna be me on estrogen. That was crazy, I loved it. Like is depression gonna try to hit? I'm like, that's adorable. on estrogen. That was crazy, I loved it. Like is depression gonna try to hit? I'm like, that's adorable. I've been depressed and now let's. Well, maybe because, maybe you'll react better to it

because you already know what those feelings are. Like I feel like some people when they get postpartum, that's the first time they've ever felt those feelings. So they're like even more like what's going on. I do think that in general milestones in life are emotionally dramatic and people don't prepare you for that they're just like yeah you're gonna get married and you're gonna have a baby and you're getting a new job and they don't talk about like the mental aspect of handling the ups and downs of it.

And your identity, it's identity shifting, I think. I was talking to one of my girlfriends and she was like, who has three kids now, and she was just like, no, after I had my first child, obviously I loved my child, we tried to have a baby, this is a planned thing, but she was like, I had the biggest identity crisis, because she was like, I had the biggest identity crisis. Cause she was like, I didn't know

if I was gonna go back to work. I didn't know if I wanted to, or if I didn't want to. I like didn't really like breastfeeding, like all of these different things. She's like, I'm a 200 pounds. Like I was never 200 pounds. Like it was just all this stuff. And I'm just like, yeah, I, but I feel like for us,

because we are waiting to have children later in our 30s, I think that we're more prepared than our counterparts, who did anyone tell them when they were 26, 27, hey, you're gonna have an identity crisis? I do think the pro of having kids in your 30s is that you've been able to accomplish some things where some women, I know women who have had abortions in their 20s, because they were like,

if I have this kid right now, my dreams will not happen and I actually can't do this right now. And it was like, she wanted to be fulfilled. But then some people know in their 20s, like this baby is what I want. Moms do give you, they give you mixed messages. I was talking to this mom and she was like, it is the most fulfilled you'll ever feel as a person,

but you will lose yourself. And I was like, what? I was like, wait. No, and that's why I just think like, it's so important who your husband is. They were like, I wouldn't trade anything in the world except for my old nipples. And I was like, what?

Right, awesome. Okay. But yeah, your partner is the world's, the lens you see the world through, the mirror you see yourself. I love Decentering Men and I think that we have done such a good job in it, but at the same time, I do think that the biggest decision you make in your life is who you choose to marry.

Also, I feel the same way about being in a marriage. If I'm in a marriage for 10 years and one day I wake up and I go, hey, this guy fucking sucks, I'm taking the kids, I'm going. Like that's what prenups are for and he will be surely signing one. You're basically like, you know what's better than being with a guy, being with a guy that you love and waiting for the right person.

What's better than being with a guy is being without one. You're weird. It's a fucking dream. If you haven't heard of a neutrophilfol then you're basically living under a rock. My mom has been taking it for years now and her hair is completely different.

We haven't even started the episode. No, we haven't even started the pod.

I have so many notes. Yeah, I see them. None of which makes sense. Here, wait, just one note that I just wanna say before we get into it, because this is a sports podcast. Yeah. Did you watch the Knicks last night? I cried.

I mean, I cried. Wait, are you like so into it right now? I'm locked in Hannah. I'm dialed in. Well I had two amazing shows. I was in New Hampshire and I was in New Jersey. In New Hampshire the Knicks are playing while I'm on. And you know I'm being silly.

I'm being goofy on stage. I go, anyone know the Knicks score? 1700 girls start booing me. Cause New Hampshire, I forget cause I'm a dumb on stage. I go, anyone know the Nick score? 1700 girls start booing me. Cause New Hampshire, I forget cause I'm a dumb New Yorker. Oh, they're South Texas. Is Boston fans and we just beat Boston. Yeah. And when I tell you, I lost the crowd for a second.

Like I was scared. I said, gigglers, you're gonna have to, I apologize to the Academy. I said, I love Larry Bird. I don't know what to say here Bill Belichick's girlfriend is making me laugh right now. I don't know what to say. Sorry how can I get you back? Tom Brady is the goat like I don't know. But for anyone who doesn't know the Knicks have been very bad a very bad team for a long time.

Okay wait so I like didn't know. Oh yeah you didn't't know. I didn't know that the Knicks sucked. And so. You were like, wait, but we're in New York. I'm gonna be bad. No, literally, I said to one of my friends. That's why it's so embarrassing. I was like, wait, but we're in New York. We've been bad for how many years?

And he was like, 50. And I was like, oh my God, I'm so embarrassed. And that's why all the celebs are showing up. And it's funny, because my friend was like, oh my god, I'm so embarrassed. That's why all the celebs are showing up and it's funny because my friend was like, oh now you guys are showing up. Well, Timothy Chame, he's been a fan. Yeah, he went to Indianapolis. Yeah, him, Michael Che, Ben Stiller. I feel like they all got in a, they did like a boys trip. And like, I will, I'm gonna be biased for like a small quick second living in New York. When you're at a sporting event that is based in New York,

I'm sorry, I've been at other sporting events in different cities. New York fans are different. It's just different. It's a different electricity. It's a different feeling. Like remember that one time when we were at the US Open and who was like about, who was about about to win it was like a young girl was it it might have been yeah it was it maybe was it like her first US Open she was

about to win something I forget it maybe but I just remember like the whole place cheering for this like young girl and just being like, that's New York City. You know, like I just love a New York fan. We love a chant. We love to be passionate and we love to trash talk. We love a storyline. New York loves a come up story, a comeback.

We love that shit. The Yankees have Benny Hanna in the stadium. I know, anyone else can compete. Not to defend other states, because I know you have beef with Oklahoma and the air conditioning, you'll never live that down. Sometimes sports in other states is better because it's all they have going on.

Like when I went to Wisconsin, they were obsessed with the University of Wisconsin because there's only so many teams. When you go to Texas, high school football is their religion. Exactly, so yeah, Wisconsin, when there was a Wisconsin football game, the entire state drove down to watch it.

New York is actually so greedy. We have three of everything. Sorry, we want more. Also during the next game, people are like, oh sorry, I have dinner tonight. There's shit going on. I'm sorry, I've literally been waiting for this reservation.

I have a reservation, yeah. I have a reservation, gotta go. Oh, I'm going to a Broadway play. By the way, I'm gonna try to go to a Broadway play. Just in your lifetime. Where are we going with that? It's just so funny because I've been like going out to West Hampton now when I can. And I'm like, next time I'm in New York, I'm going to see a Broadway play.

You're being a tourist in your own city. I'm going back to the city on Wednesday. I'm going to try to see Sunset Boulevard with Nicole Schlesinger. Wait, do you know something that I do behind your back that I don't think I've ever told you? Just the way you worded it. You know I do behind your back. I do something behind your back where I, like obviously like when I'm places without you, like I bring, I find places, I find spaces where I can bring you up. You know, like I find, I find small caveats in conversation where I can bring up my friend But like a lot of times people will bring you up to me and like I don't know

Who I'm talking to you and I don't know if they've ever heard of giggly squad So I'll say sometimes I'll say like my best friend who I have a podcast with I assume right or I'll say like oh my co-host where I do this thing with her But she's also my best friend like so I introduced you in different ways but I don't think that you know that I Talk about you being from New York as if I grew up in that in that town home with you Like I'll make an emphasis and a point to tell people that you were born and raised in Brooklyn because it's important to me.

Because it makes me look I support everyone move to the city I love it and if you can survive you're a New Yorker I accept you do I think I'm better than you yes do I say that out loud no but I also what's funny as I was thinking about that that I I know you grew up in Albany but you didn't you didn't your ancestors were Brooklyn I mean at some point I'm sure but I actually just hit my ten years I know and people like I feel like talk about it but like not really yeah but I remember moving to New York and thinking wow I wonder if I'm gonna hit my 10 year like if I'm gonna still be here because that's when you become an official New Yorker

How many times did you consider moving back home? Never not once and that's why you made it Do you want to know what I think made me? My biggest fear was having to move back home. My biggest fear was having to call my mom and being like, I can't afford rent, I can't afford it here, like I can't do anything, I gotta come back. And you were like, I'm not,

that's not gonna happen. And I was like, I can't, I can't. It's so funny cause then as a New Yorker, all you wanna do is like, Escape the city. Go to the Hamptons. Yeah. I'm like, it's so fucking like concrete.

It's so cliche. I'm like, I have to get out for a minute. Anywho, okay. What were we saying? Oh yeah, my notes. I have notes. I have notes. Can, clapping.

Okay. Did you see the festival? They have their like 19 minutes for this movie, 14 minutes. I don't know what to do with my hands while someone sings happy birthday for 30 seconds. What are you supposed to do during a 12 minute clapathon? It's like Paul Mezcal stood

as he got a six minute standing ovation. Six minutes? Get your steps in while you're at it. I mean, what? Six minutes? I won't even give a blow job for six minutes. Literally.

Six minutes? I can't even run on the treadmill for six minutes. No, I'm not doing anything for six minutes. I feel like, I don't know who started it, but they can't get out of it, I'll tell you one thing. What if you're like one of the organizers that's like- How does it end? Such a good question.

It's basically like people don't want, that's honestly, no thank you. No, it's like how does it end? Because here's the thing, if you're getting a time slot that's Saturday morning, people are up, they're peppy, they're cheery. If you're getting the last time slot, they're tired. So you might only get a four minute. Also, do they hire clappers?

We need a good press. What if the movie sucks? They just get four minutes. Yeah, great observation. Thank you. Also, the AMAs are happening right now. What are those again? American Music Awards.

I've honestly lost track. Award shows, I have like, I lose track. But the music people do, they are more experimental with their fashion, which I like. Is it in New York? No, I think it's in LA. Oh, okay. Because I still see the LA. oh, I have a story.

Okay. I was in a random place and there were people there. Oh no. First problem. So I left. I was like, why did no one tell me this? So this girl comes up to me and she's like,

oh my God, you know JoJo. Now, this was first of all the morning, second of all. My assistant. Okay. No, I'm trying to be smooth. Yeah. And I'm in conversation and I'm warm

and I'm like, yes, yes, yes. When she says JoJo, I think the singer. I went Siwa. It could have been JoJo Siwa, but I know, like JoJo the singer, do I know her? No. Have we DM'd? Yes.

Am I obsessed with her? Yes. JoJo's everything. So I go, yeah, I know JoJo. Because this is just out of nowhere. Like, and this was like, it was actually at like a woman's health thing, so she was like industry okay so I was like yeah I know JoJo yeah she comments on my photo once and she was like no like she I think she got into my

photo before and I'm like yes she was at the book festival like we almost saw her at the book festival JoJo oh my god yes so I love her and I was like yes JoJo yes and she's like no like don't you love her and I was like, yes Jojo, yes. And she's like, no, don't you love her? And I'm like, I love her. She's like the voice of our generation, honestly. Iconic. And she's like, yeah, ha ha.

And then we keep talking and she's like, yeah, it's so crazy you know Jojo. And I'm like, no. And she goes, and like, I don't even know how she got the job with Paige. So I'm sitting there going, I just told this girl I think JoJo is the voice of our generation and she smiled and said, yeah.

No, I'm dead. So then I go, oh Josephine. And she goes, that's so funny you guys call her Josephine. I'm like, well Paige is like fancy like that. Like she likes Josephine better probably. Okay, talk about millennial gen Z gap. My assistant's name is Josephine in my phone she's Jojo because it's like her. She put that in. I think so. Yeah. All of her friends call her Jojo. I just like I'm when I first met her cause I met her years ago, I met her as Josephine

and she never said like, you can call me Jojo. But then like now that she works for me again, I think she might've said like, everyone calls me Jojo. But I- It's giving, you refuse to call her what she wants to be called. You're Josephine. So you wanna know what?

I think her name is so, I feel like a mom. I'm like, but your name is so beautiful and I never hear it. Like I never hear someone named Josephine. I feel like she'd be cute as Joey too. She's adorable. The girl, the woman, she's a woman. The woman takes ballet classes on Wednesday nights.

Like she's just, she's so aesthetic. She's so cool. Like she keeps me, I'm like like does Gen Z thinks this is cool? And she keeps me like up to date. But I literally to this girl's face was like JoJo's the voice of our generation and she was like yeah, and I didn't even like, I pretended the whole time I knew which JoJo

she was talking about. So anyway, shout out to Josephine. Didn't know you go by other aliases and they got me. No, she's so cute. Honestly, all we do over here is play dress up and pretend. We had to go to a real meeting one day and I was like, Josephine, come with me. And she showed up and I go,

this is literally the Devil Wears Prada. We wear sweats all day. Josephine comes over in her literal pajamas and I was like, we're cosplaying. She showed up in the cutest outfit and that's all I really want from And I was like, we're cosplaying. She showed up in like the cutest outfit and that's all I really want from my assistant. No, she's killing it. Shout out JoJo.

I just want you to show up and look adorable. Hot take. Some pop culture question for you. Did you see Jessica Beals interview about Justin Timberlake? No, no, but proceed because I think I might say something after. She basically was like, I love him so much. He's like my best friend. He's like my chosen sister. Okay. Okay. Not how I ever want to think of my man.

I'm going to say something. It's giving Lavender marriage? I think so. Because if you go back to seventh heaven, if you take it all the way back, there were strong lesbian vibes. Oh, see, I was calling Justin Timberlake gay. No, I think it might be her. Wow. I was calling Justin Timberlake gay. No I think she I

think it might be her. Wow. I think it might be her because I think this man has gotten caught maybe one or two times. Too many times. Too many times either embarrassing her with another woman or just like embarrassing her in general. Yeah that I can't I can't think that. I was just in a real lake and she called me her sister her chosen sister Mm-hmm. I'd be like y'all we need a rebrand. Yeah I chose a sister at least And not brother. No, not no just say you're not fucking Well, that's what it is.

It's also how many people are just in relationships because they're such public figures that they're like, I don't wanna blow up my life right now and have to deal with this massive divorce or all these press. Let's just chill and you do your own thing and I'll do my own thing and we're good. You understand each other.

Yeah, the amount of people that are probably in open relationships or separated and we just like don't know, or are lesbians, I don't know. You guys know I'm obsessed with home decor and I want home furnishings that are versatile with everyday style, modern, adaptable, worry-free. I want it to be practical and functional. I'm using a lot of adjectives and I'm describing cozy. C-O-Z-E-Y. Furniture shopping shouldn't

feel like a chore. Cozy makes it easy to finally breathe and enjoy the process. I'm obsessed with their modular modern design that grows with you. You can add, rearrange, or swap pieces. No sweat. Mix and match without the fuss because I like to wake up and change the function way occasionally I'm obsessed with their modular sofa beds comfort meets convenience without compromising looks they have Amazing credences their wall shelf is so cool I'm very into white oak right now, and it looks so chic almost Scandinavian their accessories are chic Not in your face and like annoying designs. They're really classic and cool.

These sofa beds are so cool. They're like transformers. So transform your living space today with cozy. Visit cozey.ca, the home of possibilities made easy. Speaking of gay men, straight men should not be doing photo dumps. Straight men should get off Instagram. They should get up for sure. The only photo you should have is from like 2017 blurry no caption and you don't know your password. If you are a man and you have a hankering for posting on the internet for Instagram, I think you can

do a post once every two months. I know I'm coming for people right now but I don't care. As a man if you're going through your phone to put together an aesthetic photo dump and you're like oh I just have photo of my face there so I need a photo of like food here. I don't want my future man to know that you can favorite photos. I don't want my future man to know that you can have a carousel on Instagram. Des listening to this, like what? Wait, have you seen the trend on TikTok where it's like this is my current boyfriend? Yes.

I love that. The funniest trend is happening right now. Have you seen men calling their guy friends to say good night? To say good night. Okay, do you wanna know what? This is a learning experience. This is bigger than a trend

that people are not picking up on. No, this is deep psychology. If you called any one of your girlfriends and said, hey, I just wanted to call you and like say goodnight and like I love you and I miss you, every single one would be like, oh, and I love you and how are you? And like, what's going on,

and we need to connect, and all of this. The men immediately start laughing. Or they get angry. Yeah. They're like, what are you talking about? Well, don't ever call. What are you doing? Well, this is the thing.

It is funny, because it's so random, and the guys being like, just want to call us, say good night. Yeah. And I'm like, that's weird. But then the reaction is so over the top that I'm like, no, that's weirder because guys will be like good night What the fuck does that mean? Good night? Yeah, bro. I'm going to bed. I want to say good night And he's like they can't even connect with their own gender How can we trust them on anything?

They can't like honestly I saw a Jane Fonda video like years ago And I think about it all the time where she would literally said like women sit and they face each other and they talk to each other and men are, they sit next to each other. They never like really look at each other and like ask them how they're doing. That's why I take my man, every couple hours

I take his head and I make him hold eye contact with me I said we're holding we're holding we're holding important. It's important. It's important. They have to understand Humanity and look no they really do have you ever like a dated a guy. Yes. I Don't recommend it. I'm super against it But have you ever dated a guy and you start obviously having sex with them and then after a couple of months, it gets more emotional or you fall more in love with them or whatever

and then you start having sex and you're making eye contact whilst you have sex and it used to be like he'd whisper something dirty in your ear, but now he's looking at you and he's saying it. That's the only time men do that. Like how many times have we looked at each other and said like the most deep in our soul,

like things that we feel, mainly me. With me and you, like literally, the first thing I said to you on the phone will be like the most unhinged thing because that's called intimacy. So it's like where are they letting that out? I'm worried for them. But also this, have you seen this whole thing

with like the lonely, like the men are lonely and it's like, you know, obvious, like what it's our society and blah, blah, blah. And it's just like- Our society, we live in a patriarchy Yeah, like you guys set this up and now we're just getting more. Yeah, like we're not helping you Wait, do you ever feel like when people ask like About me or when I'm with people they ask what you we feel like we're in a band

Yeah, like I'm like I try to explain I'm like we're in a band Yeah, and like yeah, sometimes I do some solo stuff, but we really come back to Giggly Squad. Like sometimes I forget that we performed at Radio City and I'll hear someone say like, she performed at Radio City and I'll literally be like, who? I forget like I perform, but I don't think when I'm with the Gigglers, I'm like, I don't think of it as a performance, even though it is. I think of it as like, are my beta bloggers gonna work?

Yes or no? This is more of a science experiment for all of us. Final thing about men, we're not gonna talk about it for the rest of the time. We didn't talk about the Justin Vogue cover. I know we didn't. Cause Haley's a dear, dear dear dear friend of mine. Who can actually do no wrong.

A friend of the pod. A friend of the pod and a close friend to my life. Godmother to my future children. No, Haley's the shit. I think that Justin's a little too loosey goosey online right now. I think that he... Is going through something.

I think that he said it thinking like, oh, this is gonna sound good because I'm like correct it. I've been proven wrong. I'm correcting myself. Yeah. I think people are really like come down on her every time like, oh my God, why don't you just leave? Like, how could you, like,

your husband doesn't love you and blah, blah, blah. That's not it. Where it's just like things get like so nitpicked about Hailey in general, everything about her. I don't, I really, like, I don't know how she does it sometimes, but like, if I had a nickel, that's why I have a career. If I had- Of every guy that said you wouldn't make it? Yeah, if I had a nickel, that's why I have a career. If I had a- Of every guy that said you wouldn't make it?

Yeah, if I had a fucking nickel. So why women are acting and so mad at her? Like they haven't experienced that at least five times their damn selves. Like how about relate to her and be like, I feel bad for her instead of being like, you're stupid. Fuck her, people mean to her. I don't get it.

But I have a question. Cause I actually, I've never been in a serious relationship with a guy who didn't like believe in me. Really? Did you just, do you tell them what your dream is? And then when you least expect it, they turn it on you and come for you? Yes, it's not like in the moment where you're like,

oh, you're gonna accomplish this, and they're like, you stupid bitch. In a heated fight, they're like, and you wanna do this. I once had a boyfriend who was cheating on me with a girl who, now I can't even remember what her job was, but she did like, like hosting like random hosting of things like whatever she was a couple years older than me and he would cheat

on me with her and I remember like finding out about it and I remember feeling really insecure because I was like oh my god she's like so much more accomplished than I am and yeah why wouldn't he want her over me and blah blah blah and I remember him saying like you you'll never be, you'll never accomplish what she's accomplished. Now I'm like, I don't even remember what her job was. But I think about it all the time. Then that's just like so toxic.

Yeah. And it comes down to like my thing with relationships is like we literally are a team. And like if you're on my team, we're fucking winning together. My problem was I would date guys that I was like, I want more from you, like I want you to be as motivated as me kind of thing.

And that's hard to find as well. And I think it's actually getting even harder to find because like girls are right up there with men in like the workforce. And so it's hard to find. And I'm fine if I just want them to have a dream that they're chasing. I've dated guys who are successful but they don't want to be there.

They have no passion. They have no passion. Yeah. Talk to me when you have a business that you. Passionate about and then you'll know what it takes to run a business. No, you wanna be with someone that genuinely is striving for more and wants to accomplish more.

Well, because you get exhausted chasing your own dreams. It is actually so fun to root for someone else's dreams sometimes. Totally. To see Des's clip blow up, I'm literally like, it is a feeling that's, like you're so proud and he's also like, that's part of you.

So you just feel like, and you don't have to do anything. And you're just like, I'm proud of you. No, Hannah, you know how like the best feeling ever is like when your boyfriend wakes up in the morning or your husband or whatever, and they have to leave the bed and go do something and you don't have to. That's like my favorite thing in the world.

I'm like, oh, go be a man. Like, yeah, bring home a fucking cow for us. Like, you know, like, I don't know. I can't imagine the feeling it must feel for you when you go, well, you're not really allowed to go see Des, do you stand up? But when like, but when he has to go do stand up and you don't. Well, that happens a lot when I come back from touring

and during the week he's at the Comedy Cellar and he's like getting dressed at 10 p.m. and I'm in my like snuggliest snuggle moment. And I'm like, go make $20, baby. Yeah, wait, Daphne just sniffed my foot and then went like this. Wait, did she gag? She gagged. It's like, okay, literally chill out.

I was wearing ballet flats. Oh my God, your ballet flats have been through shit. Oh my gosh. Okay, what else? One more thing about my mental health. Yeah. Tell me if you think this is good or bad. Tell me if I'm wrong. And tell me if I'm crazy or not. Tell me I'm crazy. Wait, all girls. Tell me. Who understands? I'm gonna run something by you and you tell me what you think. From emergency to call the police, where are we at?

I do say Des has been watching the Mets a lot, which like go Mets, but like the games are like five hours, and I was like, I need to get a hobby. Wait, I was just gonna say, I forgot baseball was even on. Oh my God, what month even is? But also baseball lasts like forever. Forever. I bought on Etsy a punch needling kit.

Okay. And it's not even like real crocheting or anything, you just like punch a thing. Nice. That actually sounds really enjoyable. It's kind of therapeutic. Yeah. Because you're kind of stabbing something.

I freaking bet. So, and he was like, okay grandma, what are you doing fucking knitting? And I was like, first of all, I have mental health problems. God forbid a girl has a hobby. God forbid I have a hobby. And I haven't even showed it off on Instagram because I'm practicing doing things

and not for other people's opinion. Did I bring enough up on the pod? Yes. But I was just- That's different. This is a safe space. This is a safe space. This is just me telling you what I did today.

So I've started and I'm doing a flower one. So I've started punch needling. Wait, I'm obsessed. And what are they though? What do you punch needling? It's into kind of a paper and it comes out a whole thing. And then where do you put the paper?

My air frigerator? Well then it becomes like a painting. Like it has a whole thing. And then where do you put the paper? On your refrigerator? Well then it becomes like a painting. Like it has a wood frame. Oh, got it. So like I can decorate my apartment with it. Okay, so what are you punching over there? I'm punching, it's actually like so hard to explain. Okay.

I'm punching yarn into this paper that turns. I know, but what's the thing? It's a floral arrangement. Okay I thought you were gonna say it was like something for the mats You do it while he watches the mats. Yeah. Yeah, you're 105 Pick up cocaine. I mean, it's it's getting scary over there. It's getting really scary over there No, we were hanging out with people during the day yesterday and they were like, what are you gonna do tonight? And I was like, I'm so pumped up.

I'm starting green. I'm starting the green flower. I just finished the yellow petals. It's actually funny, I was thinking like, for whatever reason, I used to like be obsessed with Memorial Day weekend. Like it was my favorite weekend ever. That's so random. Oh my god. and I used to be obsessed with Memorial Day weekend. It was my favorite weekend ever.

That's so random. Oh my God. I didn't even know when it was. Are you kidding? I'm so bad at days. High school and college, and even post-college, going away somewhere for Memorial Day weekend. And this year, I was just like,

I can't wait to do nothing and just chill. And this was the first weekend, I feel like, I can't wait to do nothing and just chill. And this was like the first weekend, I feel like I didn't get drunk. I woke up this morning sending aggressive emails to people and then being told it's a holiday. Yeah. And I was like, oh my God, sorry.

Yeah. Sorry. Sorry about that. Have you seen the AI baby clips going around? I love them. They're so funny. They're so funny. They're so cute. They're so funny.

They're so cute. Talking babies, like I love, like I like when real babies like say swear words. Yes, but have you seen the ones of us? Yeah, yeah. Okay. No, I love them. Yeah, and they're wearing our outfits.

I know. I don't know if they look exactly like us. Like I actually think I was- I do have to say, we were, they were really cute. Yeah, I think I was a cuter baby. And I'm not body shaming. I'm not body, I'm not baby shaming. No, we're not baby shaming.

We're not baby shaming, but like I was, I was cuter. 100%. Oh my God, wait, I have this written down because I saw a tick tock and one last thing about men. Yeah. And my mom used to give me this advice to well, she actually used to give me this advice when she would talk about like having children and she would say like, if you have low expectations for your children, that's what you'll get. And if you have high

expectations for your children, that's what you'll get. And if you have high expectations for your children, that's what you'll get. Which honestly now sounds extremely manipulative, but anyways, I digress. But there was this TikTok and it was this girl and she was saying like, when you start dating a guy, like it's more kind of like a formula. Like if you are one of those girls where you're like, all I want is a boyfriend and I'm like really gonna try

and get this guy to like be my boyfriend. And you do all of those girls where you're like all I want is a boyfriend and I'm like really gonna try and get This guy to like be my boyfriend and you do all of this stuff in the beginning like you're cooking him dinner You're you're doing his laundry. Like you're doing all of this stuff like men and women are so different that is not gonna make a man want to like Reciprocate all of that for you, that just makes them lazier. And now you, that's the standard. And now that's the standard. If you don't do that, it's like you're being weird.

You have set that standard. So it's almost like when you first start dating someone, you do nothing, but only as the woman. Wait, that's what I've been doing accidentally, just because I have ADHD and I can't do laundry. But the truth is, is if a guy's gonna be with you because you're doing his laundry, that's not the win you want it to be.

No. That's not the W you want. And so go out there ladies and stay lazy. Don't do shit. Don't do shit. I would argue sometimes though, little cute things that I want Des to do, if I do it for him, it subconsciously trains him.

Like an example. An example, this is like little things. And by the way, I never cook. But last summer I started to get tomatoes. This is making me sound like someone I'm not. Like I don't, this is like I did this once. Okay, you're crocheting, you have a garden now. I didn't know about, When did you get a garden?

I got tomatoes once from the market, the farmer's market, and I cut them up, because I'm Italian, and I got basil, and I got some mozzarella, and I put some balsamic and some olive oil, and I was like, I'm Martha Stewart. You made it midday time. And he ate it, and it was like, cute. And then today, he got tomatoes, and it was like, I And then today he got tomatoes and he was,

it was like I was hungry for dinner but we were waiting for it to come because we were Uber eating obviously. And he was like, let me make some tomatoes for us. And he cut it up and he was like, sorry I don't have mozzarella. And I was like, oh my God, he learned. So he fucked up.

Yeah, he failed. He failed. So he did it but not as good as you. So we're divorcing. That's the story. And I go, where the fuck's the mozzarella? And I flipped it. But sometimes it's like, it's more love language stuff,

not like, you don't work for him. No. You're not his fucking employee. No, well, and like all I see is like, oh my God, when you get married, like men don't share the same mental load. So it's like, okay, if you don't share the same mental load, then we have to share like the physical load

of like, I'm not for hire. Like someone told me when a guy comes over, you should have cookies baking in the oven cause he'll associate like you with that smell. And I'm like, if that's what we have to do. You got that from the movie Clueless. I guess they got it. If that's what you have to do to trick a guy to want movie Clueless. I guess they got it from that movie.

That's what you have to do to trick a guy to wanna be with you. I don't think he's the one. I have a vagina. I'm fine. You guys, you have a vagina. Also, it is giving job interview where like, when you're giving a job interview

and you don't need that job, they can smell it on you. Literally go into every date where it's like, I do not wanna be with you and I might choose to but I don't know and that's the vibe. That's the vibe. You don't work for him, he's interviewing you and you're the boss. Yeah, he works for you.

No, he literally works for you. That's the mentality. He's your assistant. He's your assistant. He's your assistant. Final question. What do you feel about neck scarves? Throwing a neck scarf on. You know, I don't hate it.

Is it like too waspy? Like too giving like New Hampshire? I think it has to be the correct outfit. I actually think you have to do it with like not that preppy of an outfit. True, true. That's, wow, that was really good. I think it has to be something like, you know,

people say like put an outfit on and then a pair of shoes that don't go and like that makes it funky. It's kind of like put it with an outfit that like it doesn't really like jeans and a t-shirt. But I'll wear ties all the time, but I feel like a scarf, people will be like, she's trying too hard.

Like a scarf is like trying to be fashionable to me. I don't know, I feel like you could, you could so do one in the Hamptons and try it out. I feel like maybe when I'm older and wiser. Okay. Cause there'll be like a story behind it. Okay, there'll be some lore. Yeah, I mean, I'll make up a story.

Okay. You guys, thank you for giggling with us. And check out our new episode of Hand on Page, Try New Things. We went thrift shopping. If you haven't caught up, we've already played baseball. We've gone to Salem, we've done witchcraft. And we went- Witchcraft and wizardry.

And wizardry. And we did cat therapy. And we have merch up from the tour that we weren't selling online and now we're selling. And we have some really classic Giggly shirts that we added too, so shout out to that. And yeah, thanks for giggling with us. Bye.
