What's up gigglers?
Gary, fix the Wi-Fi.
Manifest that shit.
We can't be managed.
Got away from me?
What's up my gigglers?
Yeah.
So someone messaged me and said,
I was listening to Paige tell a story about how her ears were ringing.
And just wanted to let her know that actually could be a health concern.
It doesn't always mean people are talking bad about you.
Tell my mom.
Matt. I go not an Italian. Not in Italian. I also want to apologize to the community for saying that
Mormon House Mormon's secret wives was better than Vanderpump Rules. I was just having a moment of
excitement and I apologize. That wasn't true. Well, everyone's entitled to their own opinions. And if you
feel like you had a better time watching that over the past couple of weeks, that's okay.
Thank you for validating my feelings. Also, just want to
to start out with our woman of STEM of the week.
Up top, there's a woman who does Uber Eats deliveries, and she realizes that when she takes
a picture of the food and she puts her feet in them, she gets bigger tips.
So that is our woman of STEM of the week.
I can't believe you just said that because I have what pissed me off this week.
What is it?
You know how Uber launched.
They're like, oh, you can request a woman to drive you.
Amazing.
I love that.
What a great feature.
Awesome.
When I have really heavy bags, though, I'm not putting that on the girls.
Anyway, I digress.
Also, women can work for sex traffickers.
So you're not fooling me, honey.
You're actually not fooling me.
Where Uber has messed up with this is when I'm doing an Uber eats grocery order,
why can't I pick a woman?
And I don't know if this is what Darwin had in mind when he discovered natural selection.
But Uber eats delivery drivers who are men who go into the grocery store.
Are you alive?
Are you alive?
Because whenever I'm doing a grocery order from Uber Eats, it's because, oh, I need like two things
that I forgot that I'm not going to the store by myself or I need something really heavy,
like a 24 case of water bottles.
So I'm going to Uber Eats that and add a couple other things.
When I have a woman, I actually messaged my woman the other day and I said, I'm so thankful
that you are a woman because I've been.
trying to get garlic now for 48 hours.
Okay, so don't tell me that they're out of garlic and then send me a picture of a plastic
bag with a million garlic cloves unshilled.
I want them in their home.
I want them as God intended them at my door.
Okay.
Do they give you the minced cut up ones?
No, they sent me like a bag of like, I was like, no, I was like, no, I.
I don't want a bag of garlic that someone in the back room like unpeeled all of them.
I want it in its home.
I know it's there.
I know it's there.
The next morning I did the same order.
She got it.
So if you're really interested in women's rights, put the option on Uber eats to get women also.
Because let me tell you something.
All the men aren't going to be able to work for Uber real soon.
And that's just natural selection that has something to do with us.
I distinctly remember my mom having fights with my dad because she'd give him the list.
Did your mom have like a written list?
She'd say this is the list.
This is all you have to do is get like the six things on this list.
And he would come back.
He'd lose the list.
Something happened where he couldn't find anything.
He bought a completely wrong thing.
And I just remember I'm like, this happens every time.
A sentence that is burned in my brain is where's the goddamn list?
And that's from my dad.
a direct quote from my dad.
Gary Shakespeare to Sorbo.
And there are so many times that he's come home and my mom has been like, okay, but
this isn't one.
And he's like, Kim, they didn't have it.
They didn't have it, Kim.
And she's like, don't make me go over there.
And she's like, I know that they did.
I know they did.
I know they did.
My dad also would on the list of things we need, he would like write jokes at the bottom.
Like he'd write a backhand.
That's sweet.
Yeah.
So like he'd have his little jokes, but my mom was like, it's not.
And it isn't funny.
And it's not funny.
That is a good game show, though.
Like, dad's trying to remember their children's birthdays.
Yeah.
And what is it?
We're like, like, my dad the other day.
It's weaponized incompetence.
Period.
But my dad the other day, he, like, wasn't answering his phone.
And I was like, oh, silly dad.
We're like, if my mom doesn't answer, I'm like, so she's in a ditch.
She's in a ditch.
She's dead somewhere.
She went to a doctor's appointment.
She didn't tell me about it.
about it now she's dead on the table like I got my dad I'm like he left his phone in the car
stupid not no I was like my dad forgot how his phone works and that's okay meanwhile when my mom
when she answers on the first ring that's what you love is do you ever call your mom and your dad
answers and you're like uh I'm calling for a reason like can you gather like sometimes I almost feel
bad because I'm like oh there's nothing for you
I'm like, I actually called for a mom.
What's the TikTok?
This is my house.
It's Pam.
I don't know that one.
I'm the owner of this house.
Oh, yeah.
No, my dad's answered before and it's just like when she's in the shower and I'm like, I'll call back.
Thank you.
Also, last night, the Last Culturista's Awards aired.
Wait, can I give some tea?
So, this is so funny.
We get in and they.
put us in like these seats.
They were in the front row.
Yeah.
Thank you.
Bowen and Matt treating us.
They put us right in the front.
I'm so excited.
I'm sitting there all titillated.
I love watching other people perform.
And the camera guy comes.
I love watching other people perform.
So this camera guy comes and he just looks at us and he goes,
you guys saw my house.
And you didn't hear him say this.
He just asked me because I was on the corner.
And I look at him and I go, now he walks away, comes back.
He goes, you guys are supposed to be.
be summer house and I go yeah well Sierra was sitting like right behind us so I go I mean the people
I think they're going to be summer house and he goes no you all are supposed to be summer house I go okay
I got fired I looked at go I got fired he goes hold on one sec he walks back come back he goes are you sure
you're not summer house I'm like it's complicated it's the whole thing I'm just not aligning myself
right now with them I go it's just not really my brand like I know that I'm back on bravo today
but like overall I just don't this guy was like we're going live in three minutes what the
you talking about and I was like there was like a lot that went on that like it's been like six
years like I'm not on summer house like it's actually super nuanced and like I could explain it to you
but like I'm not sure we have the time and some people know we from summer house some people
know I from game squad I also do this like hand on the street thing sometimes on TikTok that people
you have a Hulu account I go honestly I started doing sets at the stand and like I really started
to find my comedic voice on stage like literally it was so fucking like because I
I was like, could not get myself to be like, yeah, I'm on, I'm part of summer house.
It felt like vitriol to be like.
Vitriol.
Yeah.
It's like, no.
Like, I actually, go back to your team.
Explain the nuances.
And let's not label people.
I wrote, I wrote down Mandy Moore because.
Oh my God.
We walked by her.
She performed.
And with Bowen and Matt.
And I just feel like as a society, as a whole, as a collective, especially
as millennials, I feel like we're not putting enough onus on
on Mandy Moore's career and how much she impacted our lives.
Mandy Moore actually was the first pop star I knew of.
Like before, before Brittany and Christina like really came into my world,
I was a Mandy Moore girl.
Really?
Well, I feel like, no, this was a long time ago.
So if I get this not fully correct, don't at me, but...
You know, it's really funny to think about, like,
like our mom's saying, like, Gen Z jargon in everyday life.
Like, imagine if you just heard Lenore be like,
and don't at me, but I finished a sentence.
She actually does because she listens to Giggly Squad so much later that day.
She was like, I was so page-coded.
But, um, man, I feel like it was a,
timing thing where there were too many girls of similar fonts like there were too many blondes i'm
so real with you they were like either go brunette or we don't have space for you here like they had
because they had jessica simpson they had they had christina and they had brittany and mandy moore was
like as good like i loved mandy more but it seemed like the timing was wrong she should have
her hair red name a redhead pop star vitamin c we didn't have a redheaded pop star
We still don't really have, we have Chapel Rhone.
But I don't even see her as like a pop star.
No, no.
Also our generation, we had a ton of pop stars.
Like the past 10, 15 years, who were their pop stars?
Arellas.
Taylor Swift.
Ariana.
Yeah, but Ariana isn't, wasn't doing tours like Brittany and Christina were doing,
and Destiny's Child were doing tours.
You are so nostalgic.
Wait, I'm charging my computer.
You literally just want to talk about your childhood.
I just love our era of pop stars and the girls.
I did just post Eve, the rapper, Ev, EVE, on my Instagram.
I just love finding old songs that were so fucking good.
That was from 2001.
Besides 9-11, that was an amazing year.
I love that you had no reaction to that.
I just heard you say 9-11, and I thought, best to switch the topic.
Wait, speaking of 9-11, did you see that the NICS parade, like, downtown this was downtown this morning?
I hate to be, I don't want to be negative.
I don't.
I don't want my, like, initial thoughts on things to be negative.
I want to be a positive person.
But when I saw the parade on TV and I saw that it's, I think one of the news reporters said, like, there's three million people down here.
My first thought was, why in the fuck?
Well, also, you know how I feel about parades.
Yeah.
I don't think they're, I don't think they're appropriate.
But this is the thing, these people are not like us,
and I admire them so much to be like,
they want to add a life experience to their life and have a core memory.
No one's got to be anywhere on a Thursday at 10 a.m.
Come on.
I was like, and then I'm looking.
I'm looking.
And obviously the majority are men.
And I'm like, oh, no, like the loneliness epidemic, how will you guys survive?
Also, the smoking of cigars is so funny to me.
Like, imagine if, like, the woman's tennis player who won the U.S. Open is just smoking a cigar.
Like, it's crazy.
I've never been around a man smoking a cigar until Joe.
It's a culture.
It's a culture.
It's a whole thing.
It's a whole world that I had no idea about.
men are spending their money on on specific weird shit like watches cigars i've also i've never really been
around someone that golfed as much as joe golfs how do you feel because des is a golfer i always say before
you have a family it's quite nice here's my thing with golf and this is like so candid i almost like want
whisper you just whisper just say it here's the thing i don't care when you're golfing i don't care i don't have
kids so I don't have to go as hard so you you do and go wherever you want to because I certainly
will as well not that's not where my problem lies my problem lies is when you come home I don't need
to talk about it I don't need to know how everyone else did I don't need literally Joe texted me
the other day he was like I'm playing really bad I texted him back and I go Kim there are people
that are dying I go I'm your sister's going to jail I like I'm like
I'm like stop taking selfies of yourself I don't care so that's where and I didn't realize that's what
the girls were dealing with I thought that they were like the majority mad that they were leaving at times
or it was like I planned something for a Saturday afternoon I didn't realize the other part of it was
that you have to then talk about it well sometimes they for fun like bet money and I know like does and his
friends just for fun we'll like put five bucks in or whatever so come home he'll be like babe I made
today. And I'm like, I'm wet. I'm so wet from this. I feel like you liking sports. If someone came home and was like,
great golf story today, you would be like, okay, I'll listen. The thing also with Des is he does wake up really early.
Like he starts golfing at 7 a.m. So by the time he gets home at like 11, I already just had my coffee.
I'm like excited to see him. Okay. But some men will just like be gone the entire day. I just wonder like,
because I know the men aren't talking about anything interesting.
So I'm like, how are you guys not getting bored?
Also, I went to Shinnecock, which is the practice for the U.S. Open men's.
So what's so interesting about golfers as a sports podcast, you can't tell who the professional athletes are versus like the coaches, the managers, the agents walking around because it was like a practice because they all have the same body type.
Like, you know when like the basketball team comes in?
everyone's like, those are the basketball players.
No one knew who the golfers were.
It was just a bunch of dudes with pants and collared shirts.
And some of the agents were more fit than the golfers.
And I was confused.
Hannah, that is so funny.
I kept, like, smiling at everyone.
Then I was like, who's who?
So do golfers, are they, like, not working out?
They don't have, like, they can have guts.
Because they kind of just need power.
Yeah.
And, like, they're not burning a whole lot of.
calories just swinging and then getting in a...
But then some of them work out a lot,
and then some of them get injured because they worked out too much.
Interesting.
Like they got too jacked.
Yeah, they just have to really, like, hit it hard.
Also, I don't care.
I know.
I was like, we've been talking about this way too long.
Also, I don't give a fuck about these guys.
I also do think that if you wanted to, you'd be so good at golf because you have a
wingspan of, like...
If I wanted to, I could.
If you wanted to, you could.
Wait, one more thing about Las Culturalistas.
Yeah.
One of the more embarrassing things happened to me.
Instagram.
Like the day before, I see a message from Matt, Bowen, and you in a group chat.
Yeah.
And Matt said something funny that made us laugh.
And then I scroll up and I realized, like, I'd missed all of it.
So then I'm like, oh, my God, I'm so sorry.
I missed, like, the previous conversation.
Then I realized he had added me to an old conversation.
that you guys had had from when you won Cool Girl of the Year, the previous year.
So then I, and I'm like, honestly, like, I know them, but I don't know them enough to be, like, so stupid over DMs.
So then I had to be, and I can't unsend it.
Right.
Well, it's not on SNL.
I have respect.
I'm not sending messages.
So then I'm, like, over explaining what that I'm, then I'm like, I'm a fucking idiot.
I'm so sorry.
I'll see you guys there and don't tell them, don't tell the camera guy that I want them out.
That guy's only job was to record.
me, you and Sierra, and I was literally being like, you're in the wrong place, bro.
Also, at one point, Sierra took my scarf, almost suffocated me.
It was, choked me and then started, started, like, swinging it.
The scarf was actually dangerous at some point.
It was.
It was a health hazard at some point.
Yeah.
My thing, when you came and told me that, like, oh, they added me to your original group
chat so I could see the previous messages.
The first thing I thought was, what is any girl in high school doing?
Like, could you imagine being in high school?
You're DMing with your friend.
You're talking shit about someone.
Then you guys get into a fight.
They add the third girl in.
She sees everything you guys have said.
I'm like, no, I just think a lot of people know.
Because, well, I scrolled up and it was literally Matt being like, thank you so much for
coming.
And I, and I, only you responded.
And I was like, oh, my God, how did I ignore Matt?
And then it was just me being like, sorry, I don't, I didn't know what's going on.
Yeah, that's a crazy feature.
And I didn't know they had that.
So Hannah taught me that.
Honestly, DMs are like, I don't even know what's going on with DMs.
I still don't know if people can see if I read their DMs or not.
My Instagram has a lot of bugs.
So, like, I don't really know what's going on.
I can't see any of my mentions.
If I click a DM and then I click off of it, it's gone forever.
It's gone forever.
So I've been like, I've like tried to respond to people and then it's gone.
So whatever, who cares.
I canceled my Botox appointment for next Friday because my mom keeps sending me videos about how it goes right into your brain.
She said, you want to numb your brain?
Wait, I'm obsessed.
She's like, there's, what are those, like, eating things that eat your brain?
And an amoeba.
And amoeba.
There's amoeba toxins.
Also, do you know the difference between disport, Botox, set of fill?
The way I think about it is.
You all sound like aliens.
This is the way I think about it.
You know a Band-Aid?
Yeah.
The brand is Band-Aid.
Got it.
That's not a Band-Aid.
Botox is the brand, but there's other ones that all do the same.
same thing, but they're not called Botox.
Botox just has the best PR.
I also could have just made that up, but I'm pretty sure that's how it is.
So, no, I actually don't know the difference between Botox and Disport.
I know that if you metabolize one or the other faster, they give you the other one.
Do you think your Botox has worn off yet?
Not fully.
From your lip?
Not fully.
How did it affect your mental health?
It affected my mental health in multiple ways because I waited so long to do it.
And then I felt like I went against myself because like I went against your own gut because you felt peer pressured from your own self.
And then like people would already like comment like oh my God, she's gotten so much work done.
So then after I got Botox, they were like, well, I know for her fact she gets Botox.
I'm like, I haven't had, you bitches wish I had a surgery on my face.
You bitches wish I had a nose drop.
But, so that, like, pissed me off.
I did post a photo, I think, of when I was little.
And someone's like, I knew you got filler.
I was like, I'm an infant in that photo.
I'm a literal infant.
They were like, look, look, look, your lips.
I'm like, I'm just, I'm two weeks old.
Wait, did you watch maternal instinct?
Now, let me do a warning.
I'm not going to say what happened.
Okay.
This first episode, I'm not going to spoil it.
And I will give you guys time until Monday to watch it.
But then I'm spoiling it because we have to talk about what happens.
Wait, there's more than one episode.
No, there's one one.
Okay, yeah.
It's like an hour and a half.
I don't want to give the ending away.
Okay.
Yeah, because this is a big one.
This is the kind of thing where you're like, yeah, this is fucking crazy.
And then it ends and you're like, oh!
Well, you're just like it's starting and you're like, okay.
Like, yeah, crazy.
and then you're like, she's not gonna.
There's no way she.
She's not great.
Also, like, part of me was like, how did we go from A to Z?
Like, there was no reason for it to end the way it did.
Like, there's so many levels of crazy.
And look, one thing about me, I hate calling a woman crazy.
Mm-hmm.
This woman is crazy.
Well, here's why I think it's so scary when women do evil things.
Because they're smart.
Because they're so smart.
So, like, if you have a girl who legit.
legitimately hates your stinking guts or like wants to wish harm on you.
That's one of the scariest things in the world.
I'd pick a man over a girl who hates me.
That's why I primarily fight with men.
Because knowing a girl hates you,
you literally are like she could be 10 steps ahead.
Like she,
I'm walking into what she wants me to do right now.
Like who knows?
No, they're terrifying.
Dude, I just saw a news article in,
that like two girls, I think it was like downtown.
It was either downtown New York or like,
or like over right in Jersey City.
And it was like two girls got acid thrown on them.
What?
Yeah, just like walking down the street that it was like a targeted attack.
It was like a guy who was two people on a moped.
They don't know if it was girls or guys.
Like that is.
Can you stop scaring people?
Sorry, people are scary.
You have to be alert.
You have to be alert.
Well, we've become Italian mom.
She's like once a girl was just just like you walking down the street.
Seriously.
A piano hit her in the head.
No, people can get so jealous of you that rather than trying to kill you, they just want to like destroy your life.
It's very scary.
One thing that made me feel good about my enemies was I was get, you know, I was getting those quotes and how like your enemies believe in you more than you believe in yourself.
Yeah.
And I was kind of like, holy shit, you're my cheerleader.
you're my everything you're my doctor you're my engineer you're my jalen brunson yeah but you have like
normal enemies i have enemies that are like i'll find where you live and i'll find where your cousins
live i love but we're debating who has worse enemies oh a kitty just jumped up oh hi kitty um i found out
because i'm a scorpio rising someone was like hey scorpio rising people are gonna really
fucking hate you. Like groups of people are going to come together and be like, I don't fuck with
her and they're not going to like you. And you either have to accept it and move on or your life's
going to be a living hell. And I was like, cool, cool, cool, glad I saw this TikTok. And because
you're a Leo, you like. I can't hide. Yeah. And like people just gravitate toward you. Yeah.
We have different types of enemies and we trigger different things in people. And that's why we're best
friends. Yeah. Wait, okay, so back to this documentary. Oh yeah. Do you want to explain or do you want me to
start? The one thing I want to say about it and this is why I think that gossip is so important.
Oh, yes. They were in the smallest town in America and a bunch of people knew this bitch was nuts and
no one said anything because they did not want to get involved in like gossip or drama. But like it is so
important to talk to your friends and be like, like, no, this is what I heard and that bitch is
nuts. I do think it's a red flag when you meet some of them, someone and they immediately start
demonizing someone, whether it's a guy demonizing an ex or a, or you're someone demonizing a friend.
Like, granted, there are obviously bad people, but when someone goes too hard, like, I don't like
that. It should be more like, yeah, I don't fuck with her, but like, whatever, like, I wish her well.
instead of this.
Okay.
So this girl,
she's beautiful.
She comes,
she's in the town,
and she meets poor Wade.
Poor Wade.
He just likes the farm.
He stays busy all day.
He's got red hair.
And he's sweet.
And he's chunky and he's cute.
Yeah.
And he just like wants to like do country stuff.
And like,
and his friend,
what about his friend that was like,
I don't care what no other folks do?
I loved that so much.
I was like,
I don't care what other folks do.
No, that was like,
he was like,
I would get the gossip,
but I just live my life
and I don't care what's going on.
But then, you know,
he sat there at the end and was like,
damn, I should have asked one question.
I should ask two questions, maybe.
Oh, damn.
So anyway, he has pigs.
He has a farm,
and he's just like,
I'm a hard working country.
I love from people from the country
and people make fun of New Yorkers.
I'm from New York,
which is so valid.
But country people are like,
do you like a country song?
Because that's all I'm looking for in a girl.
Would you listen?
in the country song with me and just sit out by the country and talk about the country
and talk about how those city folks are so weird but we got the country we got sunsets yeah
and trees so anyway the wades is doing his thing she comes into his life she love they like
it's quick quick and she immediately is like I have a lot of money but I can't get it because
of my trust which if I had a nickel if I had a nickel do you my
Remember there was a man in our life that was like, I can't get a tattoo or I won't get my trust.
And we were like, that makes sense.
So she's a combination of a lot of mental illnesses.
First, she's full, it's very con man things.
And I do have to say I'm kind of obsessed with con men.
I'm kind of obsessed because everyone else has to live with a reality.
And they're like, I won't.
I'm just not.
And when you believe it yourself, that shit's real for you.
And that's why you don't align with Summer House.
I told the cameraman to step back
No I love people that don't live in reality
I'm like guys she basically is like I'm loaded
And I'm getting you a truck because I love you
So if you know a countryman
There's nothing they love more than a truck
Yeah
I told you once I met these country guys
And they're like we're going to come pick you up on our truck
And I was like a hub truck
Like I never know what a truck
I was like I'm from New York
Like you mean like a moving truck
Like what do you talk about a truck
Just say SUV
Anyway, so he gets his big truck and then she wants to be sweet with the mom.
So she somehow buys the mom this like really nice car car.
Now the mom, because she's a woman, is like, let's look into this a little because this is kind of strange that this girl's like a month in buying everyone things.
And they're like no one paid for that car and we have to take it back.
Yeah, got repossessed within like three weeks.
You know what it is also with con men?
They go so crazy that it's like so unrealistic.
that you can't wrap your head around it because then she goes,
I want to buy this like $20 million acre farm.
Four million.
And she sits the whole family down to like present it to them that she's going to.
On Christmas.
On Christmas.
And they have footage.
That's why documentaries is so good nowadays.
They have footage of everything.
That's why Ben Stiller was like at the game with his sideways camera and just getting footage.
I wouldn't have been surprised.
Ben Stiller was at their Christmas holding his horizontal phone.
We're about to make history.
We're about to make history.
And she's telling.
She's like, I found this farm and we're going to live.
And everyone's kind of like, okay, go off.
Like, we're proud of you guys.
Have we ever been to Oklahoma?
We've been to Oklahoma City.
Okay, right, right, right, right.
Which is Oklahoma.
But Kansas City's not in Kansas.
It's in Missouri.
I digress.
Yeah.
And you know what?
And you know what?
And you know what?
And you know what?
Whoever was going through something on that day that that got named?
They go, you know how we're going to confuse those New Yorkers, those dumb New Yorkers?
We're going to call like Kansas and.
Missouri.
I'll really throw them.
They'll never find us.
So then she's like, I don't
fuck with my mom.
Which, look,
there are people who have bad relationships
with their mom.
Totally fine.
But she's like, my mom's trying
to steal my trust.
My mom is the worst person
in the world.
My mom's evil.
And the mom's nowhere to be found.
On any event,
the mom's not invited.
I thought we were going to see
the mom at some point.
Well, finally,
someone contacts the mom.
And the mom is basically like,
that bit is crazy.
Yeah.
She's like, but I can't say anything because then I won't be able to see my granddaughter.
Which made so much sense.
Then we find out she has these other former friends.
Do you want to tell them about the former friends?
No, you can keep going.
Okay.
So they have these former friends and they, because you were on your phone the whole time.
Because I don't quite remember how they knew the former friends.
Yeah, they were just like friends and one of them gets pregnant and she became obsessed with her
pregnancy. Yes. And she was just like, she was being so weird I had to distance myself, which,
look, I know on this podcast we're all about like pointing out the things that men do and were like
always all for the girls. But if you get a gut feeling about a girl, that is not being not a girl's
girl, that is not being like a mean girl. If you get a gut feeling about someone, nine times out of 10,
it is right. And she basically was like she was being so fucking weird about my pregnancy.
And then she started working for a company. And her boss had a daughter who passed away.
She tells the boss I had a daughter who passed away and they like bond over it.
The boss somehow finds out she's lying about it. Also finds out she's never done a slick of work since she's been there.
Like she's just fucking around, not doing calls, not doing meetings. But I guess she's charismatic.
illegal is not illegal and also i'm like good for her and that's not a bad thing here and that's why
she's a bad person wait hannah and i were on a zoom's no i can't go on zooms with you anymore like we
no i actually that was my worst one that was my worst one i have to pull up your texted hannah and i go
i literally don't know what's going on in this zoom and then i said something during
the Zoom and then I realized that everyone knew I didn't know what was going on because they laughed at me.
I was said and all I said was I'm so excited and they're so on to you like because all this
happened then you go I love school like you said something crazy you were like and I said I'm so
excited too and they go okay okay I have an earnest question to ask you could you tell that I was online
shopping during it no I thought you were going to text me back but you didn't so like I saw you
looking at something and I was like oh obviously something's more important but I obviously didn't know
you were online shopping there was but yeah you were like I actually have no idea what is going on
also you're like obsessed with sending me invisible text messages which is like actually giving me a
next level adrenaline hit like now when I see one coming in I'm like oh oh like I freak out
you have certain friend groups in your life that really give actually shout out to all the
friend groups that are out here doing the work so that like when you're in your like peaceful era
you can like I have a friend.
Mm-hmm.
Her name's Allie.
Yeah.
And every one, sometimes me and Hannah will be on the phone and I'll say to Hannah, we're so,
we're so viking and we're so content and we're like, wow, we're really like working so
hard in our lives.
And like I just like feel real peace right now.
And I'll say, why don't you text Allie?
See if she's got a little something for us.
Ali keeps me fed, like to the point that she'll tell me something like really upsettingly crazy.
And I just go, I just want you know, thank you.
Thank you for making me feel alive in my, in my heart and in this moment.
So shout out to Ali for having fun.
Because, like, she's single.
Yeah.
She's out there.
She's in the streets doing work.
Yeah.
She could have been the Knicks parade today.
Who knows?
She's everywhere.
Actually, one of my girlfriends was at the Nix parade and she's my friend.
And I'm like, I'll text and be like, what are your girlfriends fighting about?
Well, I've actually tried to infiltrate her friend group, too, because she hangs out, like, with the Knicks fans all the time.
Yeah.
Yeah.
This pot is about us finding other people that have stuff going on and then spilling it on the pod.
I'm like, guys, I know a girl.
You're not going to believe this.
But anyway.
Yeah.
So, finally, this girl tells Wade, a little country bupkin Wade, that she's pregnant.
Wait.
I, like, don't hate the name Wade.
I don't hate it, but I don't love it.
it's giving do it's giving like Mormon it's giving like dushy Mormon like the cool Mormon guy who like if he was in a normal city everyone would be like why is he talk like that but in Mormon town they're like it's Wade and he's like what's up guys yeah he's like quirky and he's fun yeah he's got like a really good personality but he's not the cutest but his girlfriend's gorgeous that's like Wade from Utah yeah yeah also why is his name Dakota like no one addresses it the whole
no one's ever said, hey, how do we get here?
Well, because you're saying, because you think that's a girl's name?
No, just because I, like, that's the kind of thing you say, give me the backstory.
Yeah.
Like, you don't just let someone say my name's Dakota and you go, oh, obviously.
No.
I need to be with you the next time you say to someone, and why don't you give me the backstory on that one?
Because there's got to be something here.
No one's just, no one's just at the hospital saying, honey, what about?
Dakota. Well, this is a thing about Dakota on Mormon Housewives literally takes to the reunion for him to be like, by the way, I was on heroin for 10 years and we're like, we don't talk about that. I'm like, this is a huge part of why he's brain dead. And no one talks about it. I'm like, the guy has been struggling in active addiction. And everyone's just like, well, I think he's trying to survive. Yeah, but he's also the worst. And he's the worst.
But anyway, so she says, Wade, my country bumpkin.
Wade, I'm pregnant, and he's like, I didn't really want a daughter, but here we are.
It's a, whatever.
But then she starts doing the thing where she's like, you can't come to this, you can't
come to the doctor with me.
She sends a ultrasound to someone that, and the date is 2016.
And the lady, they just met this girl, so they're, they're like questioning everything.
So they tell her, hey, why is to say 2016?
she immediately responds and is like, oh, there was a mistake at the hospital.
This happens.
Because it's like 2019, right?
I think it was after COVID.
Oh.
Maybe.
I don't know, but it was past 2016.
So she's being a little sloppy.
So people are kind of onto her.
And then some photos she looks pregnant, some she doesn't.
She does a whole photo shoot with a fake belly.
And the craziest thing about it is with.
Wade has never seen her stomach.
He's like, she doesn't let me touch her.
She doesn't let me have sex with her.
How is there not one moment in those nine months that he was like,
can I see the baby's stomach?
They didn't have sex for nine months?
Yeah, Wade's like, she's not letting me touch her because she's insecure
because she's pregnant and I respect her space.
I'm like, she's just eating a lot of Cheetos.
At what point are you not having sex with your husband where, like,
then you're saying something?
Like how long are you going?
Before you're like, oh, we should talk about this?
Yeah.
Nine months.
No, no, that's crazy.
That's crazy.
Wade is busy on the farm.
Wade's been on the farm.
I think I'm going a month tops.
Well, he said she would just, like, go in the bathroom and, like, put the shower on
and then be, like, on her computer, like, making up lies.
But also in the meantime, she had to make money.
So what she did was she became a photographer.
and she became a wedding photographer.
Sometimes when you describe what happens in documentaries,
I think, did I watch this?
That's like when Grace posts memes from the episode.
And literally you say things.
I'm like, I never heard her say that.
Like the funniest line in the world,
I'm like, I wasn't there for that.
I didn't, don't hear your comeback.
If someone calls me after we record Giggly Squad and says like,
oh, would you talk about it on Giggly Squad?
I go, I have no idea.
No, Grace is like, what should we title this?
And I was like, what do we?
I don't remember one word that we said.
Like, not one topic.
So she does this, and she meets this family,
and she shoots their wedding.
And it's, and I guess shortly thereafter,
the bride gets pregnant,
and they, like, stayed in touch a little bit.
So she's pregnant.
This one's saying she's pregnant.
And then everyone who's doubting her pregnancy is like, okay, like, what is she going to do?
It's like seven months, eight months.
We're nearing the due date.
Due date happens.
And I think she was apparently Googling, like, where to adopt a brand new baby.
Like you could Uber eats one.
Literally, she was like, fresh baby near me.
Like, and I guess she was trying to get she.
Who knows?
But, like, how do you go nine months without a baby?
at least like having a plan of that.
I don't know.
But the crazy thing with this documentary is it starts with her in a car,
getting stopped by the cops saying I just had a baby in my car.
Now, I'm not going to tell you guys any more information because I don't want to give it away.
But shit gets really fucking crazy.
Yeah.
And I, you know, guys know, no, I don't want to drop an F bomb for no reason.
That was worth it.
One thing I will say about the documentary, all the moms that are in.
that are like the talking heads that are like explaining the story to you are all the most like
when the girls were speaking the women I had to turn the TV up because everyone was so soft-spoken like
Wade's mom obsessed I love Wade's mom and then Wade's mom's friend who was like something's
going on here I'm gonna figure it out imagine being soft-spoken maybe people
people would listen to me more imagine not having the sound of your voice just be nails on a chalkboard
to some people like sometimes like our okay sometimes like our clips on ticot from the pod will be like
posted by like some random account like not us it'll be like a random clip they took from the pod and there
will be a rogue comment of someone who has no idea who we are just like horrible voices how do you
listen like and i'm just like valid like i know what i feel like of voices are voices our voices
aren't that bad.
No, but like everybody hates their own voice.
I feel like.
So when you see a comment like her voice sucks, you're like, no, I'm like, okay.
That's why we change our voices sometimes.
I also posted on my, I'm going to start posting on my Instagram stories more often like
the docs I'm watching.
So people, because people get annoyed when they're like, Hannah, we don't know what you're
watching and then you tell it.
So I posted also there's this, you, I don't know, you might like it.
It's a model cult in New York.
city on HBO.
And it was about like this guy who was an astrologist, psychic, like former model who was obsessed
with beautiful things and beautiful people.
And he just wanted a cult of like really beautiful people around him.
So just like a hot people.
That's a club promoter.
That's a literal club promoter.
He literally was a club promoter.
That's any guy you meet that's like, I work in nightlife.
Literally.
And this guy becomes like one of the biggest models in the world and he gave all his money
to him.
Um, that's where they get you with the cults.
Like, somehow they convince everyone to give them their money.
So speaking of cults, are you done with Secret Lives of Mormon Wives?
I have like six more episodes left right now.
Oh my God.
Taylor's like just left with Dakota and she's like preparing for the Bachelorette.
Aw, I'm sorry that you're almost done.
But I didn't realize that whole season is so like about leading up to the Bachelorette.
You felt more awful for her that they.
didn't air it because watching her
him so strategically like sleep with her before and
but that's the problem of getting in bed with someone like if they're your actual
op yeah like they have everything on you and they can use it against you so it's like
do you want someone who protects you from your darkness or brings it to the light why did
that become a spell but I also realize these poor girls they didn't get breaks from filming
no they went right into it i was just going to say that so they're not they haven't filmed another season
yet well i think for their sanity that will be really good but i i really think like that's why the seasons
are so good because they didn't take break so you know when like you watch seasons of a tv show and you're
like that was a different director on that one or like because it was all the same like it all
felt like every season was equal to me well now that love island is such a huge phenomenon
both in america and like there's franchises all
over the world. It makes it annoying to watch reality TV months and months later because of
social media so you know so much more where it's like, okay, they have the capabilities of being
able to watch it somewhat in real time. Because I think Mormon wives tried to do it. They did
it the closest I've seen in a while. They filmed and then it was out and you were like that was really
fast. But I do have to say competition shows the storylines are easier. It's like these people
say these people go where these shows they have to like create narratives i mean we do know that
they edit as they see what the fandom says like they change narratives so like that is kind of doing it
but who these editors are like yeah it would be i think it would make more shows real
because they couldn't go back and be like let's actually not even include that in that episode
because that will make her point in a later episode valid.
And we can't have that.
That's crazy.
Why would we have that?
Also, one thing about Swig, if you guys don't know what Swig is, it's this like soda company where they put like milk and shit in it and like syrup.
I never got that milk part of it.
No, but my question is how sweet is that?
They're like.
Yeah, no, you would die.
Even when people put one vanilla, like, thing in an espresso or a latte, I'm like...
I feel like you, once that time you had a sip of Coca-Cola.
Oh, I don't really dabble.
But even, like, a sepsky?
Yeah, I'll have a sip.
Yeah, but you're never, like, drinking a full...
If you're getting a carbonated or, like, a soda, you're never drinking a whole thing.
I don't think I've ever drank a full Coke.
Because my mom's a dietitian.
She was like, your teeth are going to...
Oh, my God, Hannah.
That's not my vice.
That's why you don't break out.
Whitney and I did ketamine once.
No, but oh my God, I went, you know how some coffee shops?
The caffeine just hits differently.
Yeah.
I went to a coffee shop yesterday and all I wanted to do was start my day, right?
And I got two shots of espresso in a chile-late.
I was being a little crazy, but like crazy for you.
I know, but like nothing that should send me to the hospital.
When I tell you, I was out of your skin.
I was laying in the bathroom.
Hannah, two shots of espresso is insane.
Paige, I got home.
Like, I, lying in the bathroom, butters look at me and I was like, I was like, get my
fairs in order.
Sweating.
Shitting myself, getting up, dizzy, walking into walls.
That was my whole morning.
When was this?
Yesterday.
What time of day?
Like, I battle things that I sometimes don't, I can't keep you up with everything.
Yeah.
Because sometimes I want to protect you.
We want to know what?
We talked a lot this week.
We did.
And actually, but you've been good because we'll start really gabbing and you go, we need to save for the pod and we'll just hang up on each other.
No, we had that.
The other night, we had to hang up because I could have kept going.
Yeah.
Hot take.
I actually am really liking dogs right now that have like eyebrows.
Well, they have a story to tell.
They have a special life.
You know, they could be the narrator of a hit Netflix show.
know like they they have an aesthetic they have a vibe he's a deperman yeah like i love a dog with an
accessory yeah like he literally got his brows done like a golden retriever wearing a pair of goggles yeah
i'm in i'm not a monster okay i'm not a monster but am i taking you home with me a distinguished gentleman
with his eyebrows and then they look like they're judging you sometimes they're like oh and i'm like
I love that.
Yeah.
Like German shepherds,
German shepherds have jobs.
They work for the police.
Like,
they pay taxes.
And they love working.
Like, they wake up and they're like,
let me work.
Where cats are like,
I don't know your name.
I didn't sign up for this.
Someone said,
like,
literally you never tell your cat what to do.
And it's so true.
You know what's funny about having a cat is I do feel like it is any pet,
really.
It is like a little bit of a precursor to kids.
It's not that it's comparable at all.
But, like, I can imagine when you're trying to, like, reverse psychology a child,
like, when I want Kitty to stay in the room, like, I have to reverse psychology her as if, like,
I'm not going to shut the doors.
I mean, I'm just going to, like, walk over here.
And then she comes in and then I'm like, gotcha.
And, like, I am shutting the doors to do that you can't leave.
There is a lot of where, like, with dogs, I feel like you can just be like, come, sit, shut up.
No, the second the cat knows you want.
them to come they're like suddenly i'm not in the mood yeah and i'm like and then i'm looking around
and then she's looking the amount of times that me and daphne are home alone looking around
would send you that would be astonishing to you also because cats have like um ways that they do things
like rituals and routines so like butter doesn't just sit on my shoulder she does a whole like pretends
like she's not going to then she comes back in and then she they're performers not that giggly squad
is the culture.
However, there's a movie coming out of,
it's basically like a cat godfather movie.
Like, it's a cat mafia movie.
And I was like, this could not be more giggly-coated.
It's a bunch of cats in the mob.
Did you see it?
Yeah, I almost felt like.
Give us a producer credit.
Literally, I go, how about a producer credit?
I go Italian cats.
How about we are mafia cats?
Like, I actually got like a little annoyed when I watched the trailer.
I was like, okay, so you guys listen to giggly squad.
Just say it.
They were like, what if we get a bunch of cute cats who are also Italian and want revenge on each other?
Yeah, I'm like, no.
I'm like, wait, so the whole theme is revenge?
Okay.
Okay.
But also, I feel like I need to watch it.
That should have made me laugh.
So anyway, final thought.
Yeah.
Big glasses, big sunglasses are back.
I'm not happy because I have a small head, even though my personality looks like I have a big head.
I actually have a small head.
to brag, don't be jealous.
But, like, I can't pull off big glasses.
I look like a mosquito.
You can, Hannah.
You can.
I like little cunty ones.
Really?
Because I feel like you would love the big ones if you got a good pair of big ones because
you can hide your whole face with them.
Like, no, it's so nice.
Like, in the morning when you're like, I'm walking and get my coffee and you're like,
I'm not trying to interact with anyone.
It's like, yeah, I have my glasses on.
You just feel like Paris Hilton after a night out trying to get away from the paparazzi.
It's like what a mask was.
in 2020.
Oh.
But the other end of your face.
It's just like, please, I can't right now.
We can't speak.
I have my big glasses on.
What glasses are you bringing to Italy?
Because I know you lost one of your glasses.
And I wasn't going to bring it up.
And I held it for the whole pod.
I did lose a pair of my glasses.
And I reordered them.
They actually got delivered this morning.
Because I hate losing thing.
Yeah.
I'm doing all my Italy packing next week.
I can't even think of it.
I can't.
I can't talk about that, right?
I can't talk about that.
I can't.
I can't.
Well, we love you guys.
Have the best weekend ever.
Thanks for giggling with us.
And we'll talk to you later.
Bye.
