What, sup gigglers? Gary, fix the Wi-Fi. Manifest that shit. We can't be managed. Hello, my grizzly gigglers. Wait, I need to get my phone. Oh, my God. Because I just, like, I have things.

I have, oh, you do. Well, I have notes and stuff. I was in the car on the way to the Teen Vogue party. Sorry, I just love saying that. What is that film? Selena Gomez is like, oh, I got a little blue my hair on the way to the teen Vogue party. We messed up today. Yeah, we messed up today.

This is what we get. Wait, first of all, I'm wearing a YSL windbreaker. First of all, everywhere you walk today, you got a compliment. Also, her hair is tucked in, like Mary Kate Ashley Olson. She's obsessed with herself. But you also don't feel like talking. You just want people to look at you today. Yeah.

I feel like my voice is different. I'm like, it's smaller when I wear this outfit. Not to defend you in your obsession with outfits, but the right outfit really makes you feel like that girl. No, in a good way. Okay, thanks. The right outfit makes you, like, believe in yourself. Yeah, but the wrong outfit.

Ruin. Cancel everything. I've, like, broken up with boyfriends. I'm like, I just can't. I'm over-simulated and my outfit sucks. And everybody knows it. You walk in and I'm like, everyone's whispering about my outfit. That's actually happened to me, though.

That's in your head. That's my reality. Today, me and Hannah went shopping this morning. What can I just say? Yeah. Not to get deep, but I feel like, me and you have like never been more in love with each other. Yeah.

We're like obsessed with each other. We're so close like on a soul sister level right now. And we've been like making time for each other, which we've never done. The other day you said to me, if I wanted to stop being your friend, I could have years ago. Chose each other. Like no one forced us to be friends. Yes. I mean people forced us to possibly not be friends at some point.

Totally. And we fought against that. We rose above. We rectified. I don't know if that was the right word. But yesterday, you're like, let's go to dinner. Yeah. Now, let me just say, you ordered wine.

I was feeling crazy. You were crazy. And then I got scared. I didn't want to order wine, but I saw they had a coconut drink. One thing about me, I love a coconut drink. But it came in a full coconut. And let me just tell you, it's very hard to have serious adult conversations while you're holding a full coconut. No, we were the video of like the waiter coming over.

at the most horrible point. Because he sees me with a coconut. He thinks it's an easy... He thinks it's fun. It's dirty. It's like, oh. And she's like, and then when the lawsuit got involved. She was, and then she lost all her children.

So anyway, I'm sending a cease and to sis. And also, this wasn't just like any coconut. It was like a pumpkin. Yeah, it was massive. At one point, everyone was talking at the dinner and I go, I'm holding the coconut. I'm speaking. Unless you have the coconut in your hands, you can't speak. That was the funniest joke of the whole night.

I know. Actually, I didn't even talk that much last night, which I'm proud of myself, because sometimes in a group dinner, I don't know how much to talk. I feel like I talked the right amount. Like, I left the dinner being like, I didn't overdoch. Great performance. And I had some of the, like, top hits of the night. You did.

You had the... I got like two applause breaks. Yeah. You had laugh breaks. Me and Des monopolized the whole conversation. No, I was obsessed with you and Des because you're very powerful, separate. But when you're together, you're like too powerful and you were like scorpying it. Well, we were also sitting across from each other.

So it was like I could only look at him truly. And so I was just like. Page is fully interrogating Des. I'm drinking from my coconut. And it was getting kind of, it was like, like Barbara Walters. Well, the stories were deep. Well, because Des has so many great stories. Yeah.

But then it made me laugh. You waited until I was married to a man for four years before you changed his, you like put his name in your phone. Yeah. And that's so. fucking real. Yeah, I just recently saved it, like not that long ago. It's true. Like, wait. And it went to like, I had it saved, but it was like, Des, Hannah's boyfriend, summer. Like, I have to write all these. And then it became Des Bishop as of late. Because I was like, yeah, he's a person. And I should recognize that.

Once the marriage is like four years in, it was a little bit of a COVID meeting. I understand. I can't believe if you're married for four years. Like, I feel like my parents will go out. And out and like like my mom is me like so I know like when she goes my favorite time of year is like my mom's my dad's high school reunion it's like oh my god like I can't exactly not my mom's high school reunion like different my dad like when he has one I'm like we're picking out her outfit where like it's just like a whole thing but I feel like when my parents talk about like going out and like they've always had good social lives like even when I was younger they would always go out to dinner like with someone Saturday nights.

That's so funny. Then like for the longest they didn't. I feel like that was like when I was like middle school, high school. And now that like... They were stressed about you. God forbid they left, you'd get a tongue piercing. But now that they're like in their 60s, I feel like they like socialize more than ever. Yeah.

And like... Our parents are partying. Yeah. And like my mom will call me and like we talk like girls. You know? And she'll be like and I feel like she was like hitting on your dad. So obviously like I had to go over and be like, hello. And I'm like stand up for yourself.

right? And she was like, and you know, dad, he always plays dumb. I'm like, and I hate when he does that. So I'm like, I feel like as, like you will always have a crush. It's the people that take the crush to the next level. I remember the first time I realized my dad realized another man was hitting on my mom. And I was like so proud of my mom. I was like good. Make dad jealous. Yeah. I'll never forget one time I went out with my parents and we were in Saratoga and we went to there's like after you go to the racetrack, there's like a. couple bars that you go to that are like honestly dirty like it's like you're in the dirt but everyone's dressed up and like drinking from plastic cups but it's just like the vibe and so there's one that's like a little more adult called cirros and then there's another one that's like a little bit more rambunctious and this is your like home court it's like my home court like if you go to the one it's like full

high school reunion so like I avoid it sometimes because I'm like who knows I'm obsessed with small town stuff like this. Yeah, I feel like I did kind of have like a small town, but it's like, you knew everyone there. And I'm standing. And this was like right when I turned 21 and like would go out with my brother, there were times where we'd be like, let's bring mom and dad. And we would go to like a dinner or something. But anyway, so we're at this bar and this guy's walking up to me. And like my parents are behind me. And I'm like, oh my God, like this guy's walking up to me. He's going to be like hitting on me in front of my parents. Like this is like so embarrassing. But like he was hot. So I was like, well, they're going to.

have to deal with it. Like, look alive, dad. And this guy comes up to me and he's chatting me up. And we're like chatting and he goes and the woman behind you. Who is that? And I'm like looking around and I like see my mom and I'm like, who's behind me? And he's like the woman like wearing black. I'm like my mom. And he's like, well, sorry, I didn't know what was your mom. Like is she single? And I was like my dad is like right here. And it scarred me so I was like disgusted. I was So I was like, this is the worst thing ever. See, every guy is obsessed with my mom. Welcome to my life.

Yeah. Every guy I've ever dated after they meet my mom, they go, wait, so your mom's you, except she like has her shit together. Yeah, mine's the opposite. Every guy I've ever dated hates my mom. I'm like, because she calls you on your bullshit. My mom literally one time said to a boyfriend, were you a fat child? And now, like, you think you know how the conversation's going to go after that?

like because it's just so awkward. But Kim is a silent killer. Like that'll be the only thing she says the whole night. No, I know for a fact that man thought about it three weeks later and was like, what'd she mean by that? And I was like, she meant what she asked.

And he was like, I actually was and she goes, yeah, you act like it. And I was like, oh my God. Because honestly, he was like so crazy about things I ate and she didn't like that.

No, my mom. Oh, I had one of those guys. Yeah. And so she called him out without calling him out. Like my, don't project your,

Project your shit onto my daughter. She can eat whatever she wants. Oh my God. My mom and I have the same thing. And I said he wants to help me be a fitness model. And she said, you're eating pasta. Yeah. Guys would like go to my mom's house and be like, it's so clean.

And I'm like, yeah, my mom's really clean. Yeah. And then she'd like, you know, she just is fully domesticated while also being successful while also being beautiful. And they were like, so you're missing a couple. So do you think this will come with age or? Also, by the way, when we go off about our moms and people, parents on this podcast. I always get a call. I got a call actually yesterday being like,

hey, some of the stories you told not true. She goes, first of all, I didn't dress you before you went to school. You know, when you were telling that story, I thought, I don't know if Lenore would have done that. I didn't put you in jeans to bed. She goes, that was when you were an infant. And I was like, okay, why did I think I was 17 when you did that? And she was like, yeah. So, I thought that was before a tennis match in college. Also, apparently my dad dropped. her off to a date to break up with the guy but then like it's okay how did they get to sue us I mean I got to see some of this from my mom again my mom is like I'm laughing so hard

listening to you like almost get her right like it's so close like your heart is there yeah um no I every now and then too like parents are crazy like she's like I got a Facebook message from like my middle school boyfriend and I'm like I'll kill him no that's so insane yeah It's so insane to think like, well, because here's the other thing. At some point, your spouse passes away. I'm very aware. And I'm like, who's checking in when I first get single and I'm like 75 and like still look good? Well, one of the most fun things about getting married is like, first of all, you're

unavailable to everyone. So you feel like around men, you're just so calm. Yeah. Even if they don't like you, they start liking you because they know you're unavailable. Well, you take away the whole like all the time I used to stress about my crushes, which was a lot. I'm not pretending. I was fully boy crazy. Yeah.

Now I spend it stressing out about other things, which has as a result has helped my career. No, that is so beautiful. So like when you're, when I was single, I deal with so much bullshit with the dating, which we all do. And now my bullshit is in other things. I'm not saying like I'm happier. It's just relationships cause me no drama anymore. That's nice. It's like, it's just very calm.

And I hate to say it. I used to call my mom for everything and now I have Dez. Lenore, if you're listening to this, she didn't have her own life. Like, Lenore has a sewing club. She's in historical society. She's actually, she's very busy, Leinor. What is the historical society? Like, what is she doing?

Is she giving tours? Oh, my God. There's a house on Shelter Island. Shout out historical society. And she loves history. And actually, I don't know what those are. So you're going to color and ask. No, but there's this old house from like, I don't even want to say a date because I'll get it wrong, but like, I don't know, 1700s.

And they preserved outfits that they found. Wow. And they dress up people in their, you would have loved. Wait, I love stuff like that. The outfits like that. But like, then I was like on Halloween, like that shit's haunted. That's scary. No, I love like a mansion tour of like, I was just going to say JG Wentworth.

Why did that pop into my head? G. Wentworth. 877. 777. Um. like the Vanderbilt or something like my mom used to make us do that so much when we were little and I go to like historical things yeah like go to like different like tours of things I was so

annoying on tours because you know when they were like does I don't have any questions I was like it's my time to shine which is so crazy that we're best friends because I'm just like I rather puke oh I'm such a Leo son that like when it wasn't about me I was like well someone needs to hear for me even like when we're on zooms and it's not like we're like we're like we're like We're insane on Zoom. Well, it's like, I don't feel bad not asking a question because it's not like I'm like interviewing for a job or something. It's like, people are explaining stuff and then like they're always like, do you have any

questions after? And half the time I wasn't even listening because I'm like someone is going to call me after to talk about this anyway. And give me the spark notes. But like I would die. Sometimes I have a question. But like I feel like we've helped each other. Like you have a calmness to you.

Like I'll start a call and I'm like, Yeah, because I'm not listening. And you're just, you're spaced out. I don't know, you're actually texting. I'm disassociated. So then, then I like to ask questions, but I like to wait for you to ask the one question, which is normally like, who are you people? Well, I always feel like you're going to answer, you're going to ask the question that I would have.

So I'm like, I don't actually have to do it because she's going to do it. And that's why we work well together. Wait, I had a giggler DM me because we were talking about my, our, what our big three were the other day. And I just found it interesting because a lot of girls are like, wait, I have your exact... Yours? Yeah.

What did they say? Her name's Taylor underscore astrology. She said, Giggler here. Random astrology thought, after you mentioned, not identifying with Aquarius rising on the pod. Sometimes the rising sign is more how other people experience us than how we feel inside. I actually see Aquarius in you in a really cool way.

You're always ahead of trends, very innovative, Daphne pajamas, that double as an outfit is very Aquarius. You're quick with observational humor and you're great at stepping back and reading group dynamics. Aquarius has the ability to detach and see things from a bird's eye view, which can be as helpful balance for Scorpio Sun and Pisces Moon like a mental zoom out button when the water gets intense. Also Aquarius tends to enjoy others who beat to their own drum, aka might be a little quirky. And I just thought That was sweet. Wait, you're talking about me?

Yeah. I'm obsessed with that because I just went on TikTok. You do beat your own drum. Well, I just got, this is what comes on my algorithm. Me, because I'm too weird for the popular girls and too popular for the weird girls. And I go, that's weird. So I go into the comments and everyone goes, someone goes Scorpio Rising Corps. And then someone goes, Leo Sun, Scorpio Rising.

And that's me. And I was like, it's literally me. So astrologically, things are going well. Thank God. and it's all that it is. I don't go fuck. I care so much about astrology. I don't go to fuck.

I love it. Me too. It's just because it's branded as women and that's why people are like, grow up. Did you see Doja Cat? Did you see it or you're just laughing at the segue? Well, I love that Doja Cat. You won't hear from here for months. And then she'll come out with like the craziest quote and then get herself into a drama that she never had to be involved in.

She was at peace. But she's like, I want to know what's. her chart is. I would love to know what her chart is. What did she do? She basically did like a full, when she said the whole thing about Timothy Chalameh and was like about the ballet and the, what was it? Opera.

I guess Kylie Jenner had commented her Insta or her TikTok wherever she had posted it. And Kylie said, calm down, L.O.L. And so then I don't know if this is why Doja Cat did an apology, but then like seemingly a couple hours later she did like an apology. And the apology was, I have. have to admit I've never been to the ballet and I've never been to the opera. And wait, I actually screenshotted it because I thought it was so interesting what she actually said and she basically said that she did it for clicks.

And then I think she felt guilty because she realized a second ago it could have been her saying something that everyone was jumping on and she felt bad. So I think she was trying to like fix her karma. I've never been to the ballet. I've never seen an opera and took it upon myself yesterday to kind of give it to the man because there is a culture there is culture based around outrage what i was doing yesterday was virtue signaling because i wanted to connect and i knew that timothy timothy's goof up was something that i could leverage in order for people to connect with me yeah it's a modern way to garner clicks

likes approval and kinds of things like that i'm actually obsessed with her she kind of did not intentionally but unintentionally did a social experiment and just proved that like i mean i've feel like because we're from reality TV, we can see it so clearly that like one person can mess up and it could be like, maybe not that bad. And then, but people just feel part of a group when they like pile on top of that person. Also, when someone does something wrong, your algorithm will be full of people that agree with you. That agree with you. And also, you get the most clicks when you're speaking on an issue that's like hating on someone. That's why like I don't understand how anyone's taking anyone seriously that's like I ask chat GPT all my questions it's like okay but it's

programs who like eventually start agreeing with you it's very strange it's very strange I'm like I feel like I'm living in the twilight zone I'm like what do you talk for everyone online who's like their job is like calling people out and critiquing whose job is that well like some like some people's social media yeah it's just like that's that's because they want their own fame yeah like no one actually I'm gonna be honest I didn't like I had to reread virtue signal I mean it was I was like what does that mean I think she's saying like she was pretending that she like really cared about the art of it but then she knows deep down she feels she doesn't feel a type of way about it she just wanted

attention and then I think she felt guilty some people are like wait what other comments are like she's playing 4D chess yeah like people should be as self-aware as her just interesting yeah it's funny because if you think of whenever anyone post something there's always a reason they want to make someone jealous they want to make someone laugh sometimes they want views and i know as a content creator sometimes i'm like okay what do people want to see if i wanted views whatever drama's going on i could just give my take on it that's how i actually would get views but i don't want to be a part of that anger economy i post to look at myself i know i watch it i look at you look at yourself i'm posting today because i want to see this outfit on a big screen next time you're

post something online, figure out like why you're doing it and make sure there's good karma behind it because that shit bites you in the ass. Yeah. Are you aware of the David protein drama? No. Oh my God. You'd love this. What? Okay, I'm gonna like butcher this. I'm not big into, I'm like the, I'm not big in the protein community. I get so many memes that are like the world's falling part, but at least we have protein popcorn. Yeah, it's just like everything has protein in it and I'm like, how much was I lacking? It's a, like, oh my God, you guys are really serious. It's a trend. I think because a lot of people are on GLP1s and when you're not eating a lot, you're not getting enough protein. Got it. I just saw a thing that said that they were like doing

studies and like OZMPIC is like making your bones. Brittle? Yeah. Well, I think if you overdo anything, it's bad. But I haven't done the science on it all. However, thank God. But everyone wait. I'll do the science eventually and I'll let you know my report as a woman in STEM. So I'm very into protein bars. I love a protein bar. Yeah, it's my thing. Oh my God. Well, as a tennis player.

So you've been hiding this from me. I've always bar in my bag right now. Like, I always have protein bar just in case I get hungry. Are you doing protein powders at home? No. No, no, no, no. It's strictly, dickly. Just a bar.

Protein bar. Okay. And what's your bar of choice? Right now, I really like those bear bell proteins. It's always normally like a peanut butter chocolate type thing. Remember when you're totally, um, what are the, bars from calteen bars. Remember you totally calteen barred me on tour? So I, um, there's this thing called perfect bars and they're perfect. They're perfect and they just taste like you're eating peanut

butter. They're like 400 calories. It's like a meal replacement. And I told you once like in the airport. You were like, hey, those are really good. You should get them. Because sometimes in the morning, I don't want a full breakfast. I'll have one of these. And I'm like, this is a minisk school little bar. This is amazing. I'm going to eat these all day long. And I'm eating them and Hannah's like, How many have you had? And I'm like, I don't know. And she's like, those are 400 calories each. They're milk.

I'm like, are you trying to move me up a weight class? Are you kidding? I go on this tour, we got to be sturdy. You got to pick up your luggage. I'm like, I'm literally disassociating from the world on this tour. Well, you're going to die. And I'm going to get this wrong, but there's this thing called David Protein bars. Okay.

You might have seen them around. They're the guys who did RX bars. RX bars were the ones that are like, no, Wait, I didn't realize that I know so much about protein bars. What is this documentary? And you may have heard of David. You ever see the bars that say no BS on them? No.

Oh, my God. Oh, yes, yes, yes. And it's like, dates. Egg. I'm like, fuck you. And a nickel. That's like all this in it. It's like cardboard and egg.

At least we tell you what's in it. So I think they sold that for a lot of money. Okay. And then something kind of sketchy happened. We're not done in the protein space. Something sketchy happened where they somehow claimed that a certain way they make their protein, they like own it and that other protein bars can't do it. So they basically were trying to take over the protein space by saying like we've, um,

clothing minds have that too. Like we've made this whipped fabric that no one can use. No one can use it. So that was weird. But it's not that was being dealt with. But then it comes out that. They've been saying that it's like only 150 calories. And a report comes out saying that their bars are actually 250 calories.

And people are losing their fucking mind. Who's doing these like independent studies? Someone was just like, I've got a hunch. I have no idea what my sources are. But all I know is someone was like, hey, we tested it and the calories aren't. Also, how does anyone test calories? Like how do? So people are freaking out.

They're like, this is Calteen bars status. Well, that's, it seems illegal. Well, but then. David just came back. I don't think his name's David. I just going to say, is he the actual? Mr. David has come back. And he's, they're like, actually you tested it wrong.

But it's gotten all blurry and people are a gasp. People are. Oh my God. I would be livid. And the protein community is like, the macros didn't make sense. This is weird. So at the end of the day, one thing my mom, who's a dietitian told me is just eat real food. Yeah.

When in doubt, just eat real food. If you're like, should I have this fiber bar? have this protein bar. Eat a fruit, eat a vegetable. Yeah. And let's move on. Yeah. So anyway, watch out for that.

Wow. I didn't expect, I was, I didn't expect coming in today. Yeah, to get like the workout protein lore. Yeah. Speaking of food, did you see the McDonald's CEO, like, taking a bite up, like, advertising the, like, new burger and everyone's like he couldn't bite it? Wait, I saw it. I couldn't get, there's so much content I can't get myself to actually watch.

But I school through. Here's what I found interesting about it. And not even that like, not even that like he didn't do it like a normal bite. He like bit it as if he didn't want to eat it. Well, billioners don't know how to act as humans. Well, here's my thing. Why do we give a fuck about the McDonald's CEO like biting the burger? I don't care what's in it.

I truly don't. I'm gonna buy it. I don't need. I actually don't, if there's one thing on the planet, I don't need you to sell me. It's McDonald's. It's also, I'm going to get it. If there's one person who's not the McDonald's demo, it's the billionaire CEO. I mean, it's just like, I don't even know.

You're like, I don't know what that meant. But I also, do you remember there was a Kim K ad where she got in trouble where they were like, she didn't actually bite down on that? Like, it was some vegan burger she was promoting. Yes. And they were coming with that. It was like beyond a burger or something. Yeah, but also when you shoot these commercials, you have to do it like 800 times.

So she probably was like, I'm not, I can't keep eating this. Trying to think if I've ever had to eat something like on a shoot. My biggest pet peeve is when there's a commercial where someone's like drinking water and you could tell there's nothing in the water bottle and they're fake swallowing. Ever like pisses me off. I'm like got you. Or like sometimes when I'm watching TV shows, I'm like, what do they have in place of the alcohol? Oh, apple juice.

Yeah, like what's in place of certain things? Champagne is apple juice with a little sparkling water, I think. I think you are right. Movie magic. I will, yeah, like set design and not set design, but yeah, I guess set design. I am so fascinated by stuff like that. Like I love watching people come in and like do. Well, there's food artists.

Yeah, food art. Food artistry, I think is crazy. I love a food artist. Like, how did we get here? One time I was on a shoot, I forget what it was for, but something was like sitting in ice cubes, but the ice cubes were fake, but they didn't look fake. And I was fascinated. I was like, oh my God.

And I went up to the like food director and I touched it. And she looked at me and she was like, don't ever touch that. I know your finger's tiny. I was like, I'm so sorry. I'm just coming over to give a compliment. Now I have to go. No, that's like matters the most in a food shoot. Like the model is the last thing.

It's all about the food. Do not ever look at her and touch her stuff. We had empanadas yesterday. No, we did. We had a flight. A flight of empanadas. I don't think we've ever shared a flight of alcohol together, but we have shared a flight of empanadas,

and that's like way more important to me. Also, our drinking days, we don't remember. I used to drink. Yeah, you did. That's why I was so, I couldn't believe you got a mocktail last night, because I was like, let me set the scene. I'm going to get a cocktail. And I drink that whole glass of wine.

So you know why I didn't? Because we had a big day today. Oh, because we had to go shopping. So this is where we fucked up. We had so much fun yesterday together. And we said, let's keep it going. We're like, let's keep this high. We would have had a sleepover if, like, Des was in there.

I would have been like, let us be. We were about to sleep over. But I, yeah, I was like, we're going to go shopping. It's going to be so much fun. You got there at noon. I got there at noon. I got there at noon. Thank God has started to rain.

I would have kept going. No, we would have kept going. But then I got home and I was like, and I'm done for the day. I'm exhausted. I'm exhausted. No, why is it that, like, I could do a million things. from like 6 a.m to 6 p.m. Yeah.

And like be fine. And then it's like when you have a leisure day, you're like I'm exhausted. I'm like, how do I have time for anything else? Oh my God. I love answering emails and editing videos is my like relaxing. Yeah. It's the best.

If I'm on my computer and kitty's on the ground like licking herself, I'm like, this is true happiness. Someone was saying how like kids nowadays don't understand what it was like to like be on your laptop in the bed. But if like millennials, we still do it. Well, you have your little iPad sometimes. Are kids not using laptops? I don't think they're like bringing it in the bed.

Like when we're making a big purchase, we're bringing out the laptop. Yeah. I've switched to making like flight purchases on my phone. True. Yeah. Well, the app is sometimes better. Yeah. I'm like, I have to make the switch.

But do you ever like, you're like, I'm on my phone too much. I just need to watch TV. You're like, I need to get off the low screen and just watch it. And just watch. Well, because my mom will text me all the time about my attention span. Yeah. She's like, tic tauts rotting your brain. You're not going to have an attention.

I just need to watch a movie. I'm like, mom, that's for Gen Z, not me. I could lay in bed for eight hours. What are we talking about? You've been around. But like I literally medit and like get off my phone to meditate while watching like a nice movie. Wait, speaking of TV. Mm.

You rarely watch Love is Blind, right? Have you ever? I feel like after the first season, I was like, got it and good. Yeah. Yeah. I watch, I've watched a lot of seasons, not every season,

because sometimes the casting is like so bizarre. But this year was, or this place that they did it, they did it in Ohio. The Ohio has a lot of famous people that come out of there, which I just find interesting. Anyway, I digress.

So they're doing their reunion was last night. And I don't know what it is, but Netflix just really has not figured out the reunion. I don't. I honestly, I don't think anyone has figured out the reunion, but Bravo. Like, Andy truly is, as someone who's been at multiple reunions and then watched multiple reunions, he truly is the best of everyone. Netflix no longer is doing it live, which thank God, because that was like, I'm like,

I'm like, guys, no one can get a word in. Last year they had like some man come and like play basketball in the middle of it. that was like so bizarre. This year, now I'm going to be honest, I skipped through some parts because I was like, don't care about you, don't care about you, like don't care about this, like, okay. How do you really feel?

She's like, boom. Well, they had so many like random interludes. And I was like, I don't care. Like, so happy for the people that used to be on and they're like still married and thriving. But like I don't care. I want to get to the couples. Now, this is a very interesting show

because it's hosted by, Vanessa and Nick Lachay, who are a married couple, who should not be hosting reunions. Like, I love them as the host. I love when they come in. Are they getting along with each other? Yes, but okay, here's why. Because people love commenting on their relationship. Yeah, sometimes they're quirky.

And look, and you know I love a quirky person. So, like, I've been into it for this many years. Also, we were raised on him and Jessica Simpson, so we're like, we know the lore here. And I love Vanessa. Like, I've watched her on MTV. A professional. And all. Here's why I think it's weird when they do host the reunion is because he's a straight man.

Yeah. And she's a married straight woman. So. They need a gay man is what you're saying. No, they need a gay woman. Well, here's the thing. They need a gay man because a gay man can get away with way way more than a woman ever could. Like I could make a TikTok and verbatim say something about like someone's outfit.

And girls would be in my. in my messages being like that's the meanest thing and it totally it could have totally bad but if a gay man did it it's like maybe a little funnier he didn't really mean it like he can just get away with more things as someone who's watching ruPaul's drag race every day these men are so mean to each other but they're so good at like making up and it being funny if it was girls fighting people would be murdered but instead it's like funny so you're so right the guys you're so right the game in is the perfect way like and he's able to say the like like a shady thing be so shady and people would be like clocked it you're smart where if it was a straight woman they'd be like what's her

problem with her so you're jealous of her so you're jealous no that is like i didn't even right that's and with it being nick lachey being a straight man sometimes he wants to go hard at the other straight men which we want someone to go hard at them but it almost feels like a lot of little too much when it's like straight man on straight man. Oh yeah, I don't want to see a war. I'm like, whoa, whoa, whoa.

I don't want a battlefield. Did we, yeah, did they walk through like security check before they got here? Like, we can never be too sure. Hannah, the other day I was in the park and I walked past three 14 year old boys and in my head, I was like, they have a bomb. I'm not kidding. I'm not kidding. They walked over to the trash can put something in it.

I literally go, we got to go. And they goes, I'm recycling, ma'am. I'm like, I can't trust. your kind. They both had me all. I just picked up litter and threw it away that you dropped. All three of them had blonde curly hair. Something was up.

Well, they're getting perms nowadays. They're getting perms. The boys are, I'm not getting into, it'll upset me. I'm not getting into that. I'm not getting into that. We did so much work that the jenzy's have undone. I'm not even getting into that.

I'm not getting into it. Hot take about men. This is a really hot take. You love them? You know, like a man's in jail. Totally. I watched a lot of like Syracode documentaries. There's men in jail.

They do all these horrible things. Wait, the other day, Grace texted us and was like, what are you guys watching? And I literally said back like, rainbows on the shore of like Canada or something. I don't even know. And you were like death in the room over. I was like, Jesus. To fall asleep. Tuesday.

So all these women will be like writing letters to men in jail. And I always thought like, okay, these girls are crazy. Then I realized, maybe they're geniuses. Think about it. If your man's in jail, he's up to nothing. He's not showing up at your apartment. He also is dealing with, he learns that there's repercussions for your actions. He is forced to go to therapy.

He has some form of a job. He's got structure. He's up early. He's writing you novels. Yep. And like he doesn't bother you. Like, loki, I'm like. Like you could go and do whatever.

He's not like tracking your phone. He's not tracking your phone. He doesn't have a phone. He doesn't have a phone. Some of them do. Oh, because they stick it in their butts. I mean, I'm not exact. I don't think.

No, I think they can just get them. You're not going to fight during that one minute phone call. No, you're not. You're like, you don't even know him well enough. You're still in the, like, flirty phase. Like, you can't even get past the, like, cute phase because you only have a minute with him. I am such a girl's girl. I'm, like, so for the girls.

Like, I really, like, I believe them first. And, like, I root for them. Not all of them, because some of them are psychotic and crazy. Are you going from my girls who are calling... If you're writing to a person in jail to have a relationship with, you're insane. Look, some people... Let them have her crush. No, that's crazy.

Let them have a crush. Like, okay, actually, this reminds me of it because I feel like I heard this and I never forgot it and it's stuck in my brain. Remember Lacey Peterson who got murdered by her husband? Yes. when he went into jail the amount of women that wrote to him was like insane no i know i know you randomly not like you saw a guy on tv who killed his wife who like looks like a bad boy how am i randomly happening upon inmate 302 in prokipsy like are you kidding like it was a bit it was a bit

i thought it was cute that you made dark you know what i do like though when you see a mugshot and you're like okay new york fashion week actually we could change your whole We could change your whole situation. There have been men and women that have gone viral. Yeah, remember that guy? People used to get discovered in malls now. They get discovered with a viral headshot. Do you remember the viral felon who married the heiress to top?

Yeah, he had gorgeous blue eyes, I remember. What was that store? What do I want to say? Top shot. Top shot. I was going to say top shelf. You can find out that he, like, knows how to write. Like, I've dated a couple guys where, like, I'm finally, like, hanging out with him,

and I realize that he doesn't know what punctuation is. I also think when you're writing to a guy in jail, as one does. You've thought about this for a while. It's like when you over sex, like you say all these things. And then suddenly he's like, hey, I'm out. You want to hang out? And you're like, no. This is me having fun.

I was just flirting. What do you that sound like a conjugal visit? I think that's hot because it's like you can't touch me. No, that means you can. Oh, you could touch. What does conjugal mean? I think like having sex. Is conjugal?

Is that the thing like in the back of your throat? Conjugal. Fornication. You can't have sex with them. Yeah, you can in some jails. You have to be married. How do you know that? You have to be married.

That seems fucked up. Does it? Yeah. You should be able to have sex when you want to have sex. But it's like, where do you go? They put you in a room. Haven't you ever watched? Haven't you ever watch 50 cents music video?

21 questions. I'm pretty sure it's like depicting a conjugal visit. Yeah, I'm actually 100% positive. I don't think 50 cents conjugal visit in his music video is accurate. Okay. well he went in a trailer for it so and that's where I do my research I mean didn't the other day I feel like I said to you like yeah I really just like that person but like in a 50 cent way yeah and I'm proud of that and what do you mean by that like you want to make a documentary about them yeah like I go

make a documentary and it would just like and I'd be like gotcha I feel like that's everyone wait I don't want to bring up Kanye West on this podcast but I saw a quote from him the other day Yeah. And somebody asked him if he wishes Kim the best. And he said, no, because that would mean she'd end up with me. So he's still flirting. I mean, he's just an insane human. But that line absolutely ate, you know.

It's like, how could I wish you're the best when I'm not available? This is your problem. You love a one-liner. And sometimes you'll separate the artist from the art. And sometimes it's too much. Gotcha. Yeah. Sometimes it's too much.

Coco-moco is this creator online. who I don't know I'm going back into the protein bar situation you know sometimes a threads

pops up my worst nightmare which by the way I don't look at threads but then Instagram recommends threads to me and they don't have

the same muting that I've done on my Instagram so I have to re-mute my threads because I have my social media very organized

for my mental health but this was actually a funny one that came up from Coco and she said if men text in all lowercase

they're gay because that means they have to uncapitalize the first letter and purposely like my husband who's straight not to brag. No, in this day and age it's like, oh wow. At first I made fun of him because he's writing like he's putting punctuation. He's putting he puts commas. He's 50. Even on Instagram he responds to someone's comment with like full punctuation.

And at first I was like, babe, you're coming off like intense. This is too strong. And then I realized, no, he's a straight man in his 50s. No, yeah. When a guy is like, I'm going to answer with an aesthetic. No, the other day. You're an evil laugh. The other day I was like watching a video or something and one of the guys was like, I don't know if he was gay or not.

I don't think he was. If you have to ask. Yeah, that's so true. But he was shortening every word, like abbreviating it. And there was like a straight man listening to the video as I was watching it. And it was just like so. they were like he was like what are they said it was just I have an answer to that only gay men shorten words because gay men are busy they have things to do but like they have like

their creative directors they have like multiple things happening they're doing reunion that's why they walk so fast like they're going places also they have to deal with like possibly getting chased by like angry straight men straight men like you know things happen um that's why they're good at reunions yeah they're busy they're doing reunions so we figured that out recently I was walking behind someone who was walking fast. Okay. Sorry. Sorry.

I've been in Canada. Sorry, we've done this podcast for six years now. So this will be the topics moving forward. Sorry, let me get this straight. Recently, you were walking behind someone and that person in front of you was walking super fast. So were you walking behind them? Because it actually doesn't sound like you were.

People have to talk about this. I hate a crowd. Yeah. The second is a crowd, just drama. Also, I don't care if you're walking with me. I'll lose you. I have to get out of this crowd. If you want to hold my hand, come with.

Otherwise, I'll leave you for dead. But I'm getting through the crowd. Like, you know what? Someone's slow. I'm like, I'm sorry. No, I'm getting through. Yeah. I'm getting through either come with me or don't.

Yeah. Oh my God. So it's really one for all and all for one when you're in a crowd. It's like, if you're coming or you're not make the decision now. Yeah. Like if I make a move to go around someone, you got to follow. You got to go when there's an opening or like you're getting blocked. Fucked.

If I sacrificed myself. Anyway. So I saw, I went, where was this? Oh, I was in Indian Wells. There was a crowd. And I said, and it's Indian Wells lot of retired people. It's calm. It's California.

Everyone's chill. It's a weekend. You're doing a social event. But I see this crowd. I can't do this. And then there's a woman in front of me with a backpack. And she's not having it either. And she starts, like, Moses.

So you hit yourself to the back. Random woman. I go, I'm following this woman. So she pays. paves the way for me and me and this woman we got through a whole tennis tournament together and I just want to say shout out to that woman with the backpack in Indian Wells. Thank you for being there for other women

the only equipment I could say that I could relate to that is you ever been in an Uber? You ever been? You ever been in an Uber that gets right behind an ambulance. Let me tell you, that Uber driver has never been happier in his goddamn life. he's riding that Uber. He's riding that ambulance all the way down Fifth Ave.

Like, I mean, he's going, he's moving. I was in an Uber recently where the guy fully just went in the, like, empty lane that you're not supposed to go to. And at first I was appalled. And then I said, this guy's a genius. Yeah. Because when it's you, when other people do it, they're assholes. Well, I feel like when I'm in an Uber, like, unless I feel like you're going to sex traffic

me, I'm on your side. Like, when an Uber guy, when he haunts? We're a team. When he honks, stick up for us. When he honks, I'm like, it's us first the world right now. I'm like, no, that guy was crazy. You were in the right. And because I've been in Ubers that are a little lackadaisical, they don't care to like when

it's yellow, they just like stop. Like they're not in a rush. I'm like, so you don't care about like my well-being. I've low-key been in Ubers and gotten in car accidents like fender benders. I've been in like two, maybe three. That's not great. You are in a lot of Uber. I'm in a lot of Ubers.

I have a question. What's your Uber setting? Like, do you say don't talk to me? No, I'm not a monster. They get the vibes when I get in there. I'm the opposite. I have to say, no talking. That's insane.

They still talk to me because I have such a nice aura. Yeah. So when I walk in, they're always like, hi, and I say, hi. Like, polite. But then I'm like, I don't want to be in a conversation. When a little kid makes eye contact with me, I'm making that motherfucker laugh. Because my comedy, it's childlike. It's childlike.

I really kill it. It's kid friendly. In the one to two year old demo, like they get me. Like they, isn't it funny at such a young age? They know I'm trying to make them laugh. I actually would say, even though you don't have children, I would leave my children with you without even thinking of it. Because I know you're such a people pleaser that you're going to be like, and what do you guys

want to do? But that's the problem. Like in what's the back? And it's craziness. And like, yeah. I'm going to, I'll be an enabler, but they will have fun. They will have fun. But I have to learn to put my foot down with my future.

on board childs. Yeah, well, you're kids, but like other people's kids, you don't have to put your foot down. So it's like a free-for-all. I jack them up. I get them so excited and then I leave before it's, you have to put them to bed. Yeah. Did you babysat? Fuck, no.

I thought you ran like a babysitting, like, business. Yeah. There was always like one cool girl that like ran a full, like. Not me. Not me, honey. Oh, you never babysat. One time I actually remember a mom, like, asking, I was like a senior in high school and maybe and a mom asking me like, oh my God, do you babysit?

And I remember being so offended. I was like, no. Like, and I remember calling my mom being like, she asked me if I could babysit her kids. Like, no, no, I don't know your kid. I don't know if I met your kid. Can I see a photo first? What's their sign? Wait, asking for a photo and being like, no.

I'm a pick me when it comes to me a babysitter. I'm like, who's your favorite? babysitter and I mean I've like watched like my younger cousin like I've seen a kid before but I'm like I can't get fired from this job they're the purest form of a soul yeah that's how kids are you're just like I don't know like you know like you're in the airport and you're waiting line you want to fucking kill everyone and then some kid looks at you and it's like hi no I actually get more mad I'm like and there's goddamn kids I don't have a follow-up to them kids they do make stuff about them which I think that's what you don't

like they're like it's about me well i just find them annoying i'm like be an adult what does they have a good outfit on adorable well that's a testament to the mother so which at the end of the day it's all about the moms it's all about the moms um have you heard of this nona maxing thing no really that hasn't come across your like as in and like grandmas yeah nona maxing it's no but i'm quite interested eating generational recipes. Okay. Cotton nightgowns. Okay. Check, check. Walking everywhere. Check, check, check. Italian penicillin soup. Air out the home. You must air out your home. Was airing out your house a big thing when you were growing up? No, because we lived in New York City. Oh, right, right, right. Every single window in the house, it would be like the first nice day and she'd be like, we have to

spring clean. It was as if like the Pope was coming along. I feel like that's like a rural thing to do. Like you have to have nice air to do that. Yeah. Like you guys had nice air. Yeah, we had nice air. Yeah, we didn't. Yeah, that's true. Some guy's smoking a cigarette outside.

I'm like, now that I think about it, like, I feel like she was right. Yeah. Because you're cooped up all summer. Just breathing each other's air. Breathing in the same air. Yeah. I also feel like the most Italian thing about you is if you ever go to Italy or just in general, even in Brooklyn, old Italian women love to just sit out by their window.

observing. They're protecting. They're getting into gossip. They just sit there all day. And like, isn't she bored? No. She is people watching, collecting information, spying. My grandma had two rocking chairs.

Outside on the porch. She was like, come on. We're going to sit outside. We're going to talk about the neighborhood. Like, I was four years old, and I was like, she did what next door? I'm like, grandma. Are you fucking kidding me? Like my grandma was everything I want to be today.

Like she smoked cigarettes, just chain smoked them. And like I think, we don't do that. I think about, right, because we don't do that on the spot. But I think about like if we were like girls at the same time, like, oh, we would just gossip. And if I lived in the 50s, all I would do is smoke cigarettes. In my family, Antistriac org. Yeah.

Which someone messaged me. It is run by Mormons. But they're just kind of obsessed. with lineage. Yeah. I don't feel like the Mormons are like taking your info. So when I got all the way back to like the 1600s with my Italian ancestry, I clicked it.

One of them lived till 93. Wow. So I call my mom and I'm like 93 in the 1700s. Is that insane? Super insane. And she said Hannah, there's these things called I'm laughing because now she's going to call me and be like, you said the story around. Blue zones?

Shut the fuck up. She goes, we lived in Sicily in a blue zone. You know what a blue zone is? Yeah. How the fuck do you know what a blues on is? There was like a documentary a couple of years ago. And your mom being a dietitian, she definitely saw it. And it was about all these different places in the world that people live to like an insane age.

So in Sicily, there's blue zones where you have to walk up a cliff to get to your house. And I guess it's so good for your lungs. And like all they did was walk. And they pretty much have like a Mediterranean diet. They're just these healthy Mediterranean Italians walking all around. Imagine if I had 90 years of gossip. 93. But also back then, I thought you croaked at 36, 93.

Right. He must, who was he talking to? Did he have friends? Right. Were they all just old? But it's like, I think then everyone moved to New York and everyone was like getting hit by trains. Like, it was just craziness.

But when you just live in a small Italian island, maybe that's the way you do it if you want to live a long life. It sounds like we're going back. I think we went back to the homeland. I mean, a blue zone does sound relax. say. Do you have Blue Zone in your family? I don't know. Well, you have to figure out where in Cicely. This pod is not sponsored by Mormonism or family search.org. Just want to say that in case that anyone was wondering. But I did have a giggler message me who's like, I work for like the Celsius

of something really important as the Googlers do. And she's like, it's very legit. The census. Maybe. Celsius. That's a drink. That's you. Celsius. It's also a temperature. yours oh right I want to correct each other double wrong you dumb bitch Celsius that's a drink yeah Celsius is a drink I drink once

and bash my head through wall It's temperature for like For Europeans When are we ever using Celsius Does use a Celsius sometimes And he's European Also he uses military time sometimes There's things going on in my relationship

That I'm working out Okay but again that is too. They do that in Europe. Yeah, it's Europe. Well, we found out that Des read Wuthering Heights in one week. That's shook everyone. No, we found out that he re-read it. He was like, well, obviously, I read it years ago. And we were like, oh, that. Pardon us. I was like, okay, well, I read my first book in 20 years last month, okay. What are you currently reading The Giglars want to know? Seven Husbands. The Seven Husband, Evelyn, what is it called?

Evelyn Hugo? The Seven Husbands, whatever. That. one. Is it good? Yeah, it's good. I'm only on like, I really am not doing well. I'm only on like page 50. I'm not doing well. Wait, stop with a negative self-talk. No, and it's not the book. I like the book. It's just, I'm not as into it as I was my last one. I don't know why. But I need to like buckle down. Are you going to read on flights? I don't think I can bring myself to do it. You know why you like a book? I know why you like a book. The aesthetic. It's an accessory. Totally. It's better. When you posted that photo of you at the beach, I go, okay.

You saw something in your lay flat and you were like, something's missing. Something's missing. I was like, should I do my sunglasses? No, we're over that. Like, we've seen those. And then they were like, how about just a corner of my book? No, I literally texted Kazi and I was like, I'm going to the beach. I'm going to take the best photo of your book.

Yes, yes. Because that's what friends do. That's what friends do. That's what friends do. They support their other friends and they like want the best for them. Women supporting women, gigglers supporting gigglers. We also are going to the IHeart Awards. Hell yeah, we are.

We did forget to tell anyone to vote. And they closed the voting. Did they? Yeah. Like, because you don't know what? We're not pick me. We're like,

if you happened upon it in your own time, great. Yeah, I'm not forcing the gigglers to get us an award. Also, we don't need awards for happiness. We have each other.

No, and we do have the best podcast. And we're also saying this because if we lose, we're like, well, we didn't care. We're like,

oh my God, surprise. And if we win, we're like, we need to be. even have any one vote for us. And now we know this is right. Doubally amazing.

I'm wearing a pretty crazy dress. Yeah, I still haven't picked out my outfit. I'm just like not loving anything these days. Are you going to try to match me? No. Okay. Do you think the gigglers are going to before or again to the dress, which is basically, did you think they're going to think you liked the dress or not?

It depends how it photographs. I like the dress because it's so true to you. like your personal style and being quirky and like trying something and being like you've seen that before and you're like I love that the way that looks and I think that's cool. Yeah and you go and I love when things get you excited. I love that for you. So keep an eye out for those photos. Hopefully they come out well if they don't. Just say a little like. I support you. I support women in the arts. We love you guys so much. Thanks for giggling and we'll talk to you on Monday. I don't know.
