Sup Gigglers. Gary, fix the Wi-Fi. Manifest that shit. We can't be managed. If you're watching, first... Take a breather. Welcome. Sorry, I'm wearing the same outfit as you.

I was on FaceTime with Hannah. She saw me get dressed. See, this is where there's two sides of every story. Yes, I technically saw you, but I wasn't processing. I was looking at myself in FaceTime. Right. I wasn't like, oh, she's wearing a white shirt. That's like a great idea of.

And glasses and black pants. Or what are you wearing on your feet? And that's why we're different. my comfortable sandals um okay okay obviously we're alive like we see the internet we see it we know what's going on and this is giggly squad which is funny because we have to laugh through if you don't laugh you'll cry yes yes um so we will say obviously sierra is our real friend in real life so we have been talking to her consoling her we are behind her 100%.

We would never capitalize or monetize off of our friend's heartbreak. We love you, Sierra, as the one and only guest that's ever been on Giggly Squad, who's a woman besides a couple cat psychics. I'm sorry, Trevor Wallace. And Trevor Wallace. But like, we kind of just erased you from history.

We're like, we've never had a guest except one time a red-headed man came in and the girls rioted. Anyway, I digress. Degress. But, and this is the last thing I'm going to say about it. And we're going to say that throughout the whole pot. And this is the final.

And this is the final thing I'm going to say about it because Sierra is a strong, intelligent, capable woman. She will speak her truth when it is her time. I would never speak for her. And also, this is reality TV. Like, there is very concrete reasons on why Hannah and I are no longer part of reality TV. It's one of the scariest things you can ever do in your entire life. And it's partly why we created Giggly Squad. So, yeah, I think this is an example of how, like, what actually is going on in people's lives is far crazier than anything they ever show.

Yeah. And I think Gigley Squad was created after us seeing how they wanted to pick fights and how they wanted to pick people. And we felt like so much was on the cutting room floor and they weren't showing the things that they should show. They wouldn't show. And Gigley Squad is where we could just be ourselves and laugh. And I do have to just shout out, Sierra, that I was supposed to be beefing with her from the second I met her. Like, we should have never had a chance. Like, it was immediate, like, you two need to fight over a man.

And the second I met her, I looked through the eye. And we were like, I love you. You love cats. I fuck with you. I was just going to say. She's like a cat ring on. And she's had my back since the day I met her. And I feel the same way towards her.

So I love you. So since I've been trying to be off my phone, I deleted my apps. I didn't call me tonight. I deleted the calculator app. Also, I don't run the Daphne-Dissarbo account. I need to say that. I just need to say that because I don't run it. I don't know who runs it.

Shout out to their Canva game, but it is not me. So please stop tagging me. Are you sure it's not Daphne, though? And let me just give like one little snippet. Yeah, our group chat is better than yours. it's popping off. Okay? I'd be jealous too.

And I, why do you think I'm wearing glasses? I've been in the investigation. People being like, Page of Silent, Page of Silent. We're like Mary Kate and Ashley in those trench coats. That's us. You can rewatch that movie if you want to actually see what we've been up to. And here's one of the things that I also say is like we really do know the importance of female friendships.

And one thing that was happening like when I was going through a breakup, after all of a sudden done, I think I called Hannah one day and I was just like, thanks for letting me talk about the same situation for the past seven months and just like going over it again with me and going over it again with me. So like we are real friends. So if you think that I haven't gone over the same scenarios so many different times over the past year with my girlfriend's like you're crazy. Like it is weird to see things on the internet because you're like those are my real

girlfriends. So yeah, I'm going to react differently than to the people that are just natural viewers. You don't know them. And I'm no longer on the show, so I'm not. Also, there is, like, whenever you post something, it becomes a news article where it's like, that's not what you want. Right. You guys donated a shit tonne to the food bank. I posted a food bank. It's a story and everyone, they're all donating. So the New York City Food Bank is very happy for everyone who's, for all you little sleuths on my Instagram. This is a good point because a couple of weeks ago, I had made, uh, Daphne had made a, a t-shirt for St. Jude for just like a, something like in-house that they were doing. We didn't like post about it really because it was like for something they

were doing at the hospital. But so many people DMs about the, the t-shirt. So we are going to put them on the Daphne website. And then obviously all the money will go to St. Jude's. But I've become like a partner with St. Jude. Um, and I'm going to do more with them throughout the year. But, hi, how are you? Today. Some stuff went down. Yeah. We were together. Working as two women do. And stuff starts going down and I'm like, Pidge, I just dropped my music video.

And you were like, hey, babe, not now. You're like, hey, like, you know when a mom's like trying to have a conversation with adult and someone's like, mom, mom, mom. And she's like, hey, I'm literally, I'm on the phone. I literally like, I'm on the phone. She's taking, like, press is calling her and she's having to like, and I'm like, Ma, ma, ma, hey, what's this? Wasted my damn time. I go, look what I can do, look at I can do. And she looks at me and she's like, what are you

talking about? I go, it's my world premiere. And she goes, I thought this was a joke. And I go, it's not. It's a music video that I really produced. I thought it was a bit. Okay, well, it's not. And then I go, can you watch it? Now, I do have to say, the pain of watching someone watched something you're forced to watch. You're male YouTube videoed me. You were over my shoulder. I waterboarded you, but the funniest part about it is like, you don't realize until someone else is watching something, how long it actually. she is because when you're watching it through someone else's eyes it actually is like dog ears I'm so sorry that was the longest music video I've I mean if the only one I've ever done but it was it was

unnecessarily like 40 seconds too long Paul wall is gonna call any minute I mean it's kind of crazy so then like someone else came in the apartment and I was like hey and they're like what's going on and I go I just dropped my music video and page was like Hannah shut the fire I was like stop telling people let's get to like some important stuff why you're actually stressed no let's when I'm on my iPad at night I know no bounds. Sometimes I'm like, it's time to take the iPad away. When you tell me, hey, don't go on socials, I'm still alive and a human. So we're like, I'm going to be on my phone.

So I'm pulling up Pinterest. I'm on Amazon. I'm shopping. And all of a sudden I get it in my head. Now, simultaneously, I'm thinking about how there's a pile of clothes in my closet that I need to hang up and, like, put away. Just like, I'm thinking like closet mode. I'm getting, I'm like, should I organize? something. Also, do you never even organize, you can come over to my place too, if you ever just want.

Let's not push it. But when you're trying to be off your phone, crazy things happen. I fed the cat. Called my grandma. No, literally. I met my brother for the third time. I learned how to read. Have you ever heard of a steamer closet? It's a closet just for steaming yourself or for clothes? Clothes. I wonder what would happen if you got in it? Probably nothing good. But I've only ever seen one in person at Amazon, like at the Amazon studio. Like they have one in one of the green rooms and you can like throw your outfit in there whatever. And you close the door.

And you close the door. It looks, it's basically like a dry cleaner at home. So I'm doing some research and licking them up. $2,000. I think, hmm. It is a little steep, but let me girl math it for a second. How much time would I save steaming my clothes and not bringing things to the dry cleaners? using this little and as a CEO of a business and as someone that owns a fashion brand I should be

pressed and I do have to say it's a write-off I look like an accountant right now that's why I thought of that so I purchased that and right now it's in my foyer because it's so fucking yeah you know that's like when you order a couch that I have no idea I haven't even I'm honestly I'm actually waiting for my dad yeah come over so that an adult knows how to get it up perfect thing for a dad to do but I know He's going to be like, what the hell is this? He's going to love it, which brings me to my next point. I'm hosting my first holiday this year, this Sunday. Jesus has risen.

I'm hosting Easter, which. God has died. Jesus has risen. You just made that up. Christ has come again. Wow. Sorry, I'm a singer. Remix coming soon.

I realized not that many people celebrate Easter, I feel like. Like, no, like I'm saying, even the people that like that is your. I feel like Italians do. Yeah, but I feel like some people, like a lot of people don't make it a big deal. Really? I feel like, well, growing up for sure, there was like Easter egg hunts. Once my Nana made jello Easter eggs. And I guess they like went down a little too easy.

I had like 14 of them and then I threw up in the car and it was all like green. It was just like green and like I still haven't lived it down. My dad brings it up all the time. And it was actually traumatic. I've never had jello since. You're coming to my Easter. And I hope there's jello eggs. No, wait, I'm so excited.

Unfortunately, there won't be. I'm trying to get Des to dress up as the Easter Bunny. The Easter Bunny, which we almost did, but we kind of messed it up in our pitch. Well, I should have said that it was my idea. Yeah, if you wanted it, he would have done it, but he knows it just messing with him. I'm not cooking. I'm catering. So, like, am I hosting?

Yes, you are. I mean, there's like about 20 people. Having people in your space is an emotional exhaustion. Yeah. Like last night I was like, I don't have any ice buckets. No. How am I hosting? Do you have garbage? With no ice buckets.

Do you have enough garbage bags for when people just like toss their cup around? I have enough garbage bags. Okay. Look at me trying to host. That's the one thing I worry about. But it's really stressful. I don't know how people do this all the time. People get mad about garbage.

People get mad about garbage. I also texted you because Des was going to be gone all weekend. And then I was like, wait, he's actually going to be around. Can he come and you go imagine if I said no. No, but he would have been so funny. as the bunny because he does like a character arc and he likes to give it he would give it as all I feel like if the suit's there yeah I might just Amazon it and be like oh my god did you order I'd be like page must have sent it we'll see we'll see maybe I'll do it I feel like that's really what

you've been gunning I know but I want I want Kim to Sorbo to respect me well wait I envisioned me and Kim me and Kim with some wine in the corner talking shit about you like that's what I envision Hannah texted me today, like, out of nowhere and was like Kim's waiting for this email. And I was like, who? Like, I literally didn't know when she was talking about. And Hannah was like, your mom, because we were like waiting for an email. And she was like, I bet your mom's waiting also. I hate who I become in these social events because, again, I'm going to be like, oh, like, you have to socialize. But I think I'm going to be excited. You actually said to me the other day, don't worry. I'm going to leave before it gets serious.

Like, Jesus is actually going to rise in my apartment. I'm like, what part is it getting serious? Take me with you. I don't want to say when it's when's it's serious you're like don't worry I'm going to scoot out right before I'm like before what before Christ rises yeah is there anything that I should know about it before like to prep is there a what are you going to wear pastels right it is um oh there's a theme it is business casual no I just it's Easter brunch yeah it's Easter brunch like I'm going to be in this yellow Gucci dress that I saw Kate.

Kate Blanchett. Jessica Chastain. Got it. I saw her wear it on the cover of a magazine and I was like, that dress needs to be mine. And so I'm going to wear that for Easter. What's Kim wearing? You know, I don't know. Speak your moms.

Lenore Cut a Bob. And how is it? Is she different? She's gorgeous. Well, she's sending me a lot of selfies. She's loving it. I saw the pixie cut. That we posted on Gigli Scott account.

What do you think? Gorgeous. I love it. Not for you. It is for me. Not right now. You're not ready. I think here's what I think.

In like a couple years, she's post-wedding. She's and children around. She's pre-children. Oh, pre-children. She's post-wedding, but she's pre-children. Somewhere in there. I feel like if you're nervous about getting an ugly haircut, do it when you're pregnant. My mom shaved her head when she was pregnant.

It was iconic. Yeah, but she was in New York City in 1991 in the middle of all games. Yeah, she was, yeah, she was eight months in the summer. So in terms of what I'm going to wear, does I know look cute? He's good at like the preppy look. Me, I don't want to wear something that upsets anyone. Okay. I don't want to take the tension away from Christ our Lord and Savior.

Right. Because it's not about me on Easter. I'm not the main character. Yeah. Do you want me to make you an Easter basket? Yes. Do you have a chocolate bunny? Damn, and I don't have a chocolate bunny.

That's what I forgot. I've been ordering stuff on Amazon. Let me bring it. Because I need to bring a gift. I need to bring a gift. Because I was like, oh my God, my mom's going to come and be like, what is this table scape? So I need to like impress my mom with my table scaping. Oh my God.

I'm so nervous for you. No, it's so stressful. And let me tell you something. There's not a lot of Easter stuff out there for boys. Try doing a Easter basket for a little boy. It's really hard. Just get them dirt. So anyway.

A couple rocks. So that's what I've been doing while I've been staying off my phone. I've been ordering steam. closets and looking at how to fold a napkin into bunny ears. And so we're really thriving. You know who's not thriving? Yeah. Tiger Woods and Justin Timberlake. Like this is either I'm in a different timeline and this is a Mandela effect or I've seen this news article. Did you just bring up Mandela effect? We've never done that in Giggly Squad. You're never on TikTok and you're like and people are like what timeline are you in? If you remember this, then you're on this timeline. You smoke weed.

Thank God. Thank God. No, I don't have any vice. No, thank God. You're my vice and you're like, can you please stop face-sign me? Well, because now, sometimes you face-sign me and I feel like your mom. I'm like, are you okay? First, tell me what's going on?

What did you do? Like, you know, what did you do? Your mom has that voice, like, you answer the phone. She, like, immediately knows, like, either something's going on with you that you're sad or, like, you did something. You're like, what is in your mouth? What happens? Yeah, it's... Give me what's in your mouth.

Let it out. Spit it out. Spit it out. That is like how I feel like I have to talk to you sometimes. I'm like, what did you do? What did you do? Because we're casually texting DMing all day, smoke signal all day. So then when I do the FaceTime, it's always something.

Well, first of all, my invisible ink texts have gone rampant. I still don't know how to send it as well. People don't talk about... If you're talking to a friend, like what your usual medium is to talk and then they FaceTime you, you're like, oh, shit. This is serious. But also, I don't do it for work. Like, I've never facetime you ever work stuff. Yeah.

Or like a group text. I think that's grace. Lake Wednesday. That goes through grace. I think you Snapchated me a couple months ago. It's actually crazy in the year 2026. Like, okay, we could say that we've been addicted to our phones for how many years. Sorry, I was on my phone.

Would you say? Like, when do you think your addiction really start 10 years ago? I wasn't addicted in college. I know that because my Blackberry broke and I was like, who cares? Like, I literally was like, whatever. And I got addicted. Well, I remember in, like, 2015 seeing that, like, people started to make crazy money. That's when I started my Forks and Fitness account.

Oh, right. We can't forget. And I knew that you can use social media to, like, build businesses. And then when I started working, when I started working for Betches in, like, 2017, I was private. Like I would just want to be a video producer. Oh, no way. Yeah. So when I was working for them, I had like no followers and I was just creating on their stuff.

Yeah. And then I started like writing jokes. So I feel like I've had like a full. I would say, yeah, probably around the same time. Like 20, whenever I started like graduated college and then started like working. So like 2015, 2016, the world went bad. There's this new thing called dumb phones, which is fun, where it's basically like flip phones that people can use.

People are trying to solve it. They're like, can I have a phone with no social media? But then it's like if you have access to the internet, then you have social, like, no one's gotten the right way. Or phones that are just text and calling, but then it's like you need GPS, you might need your email. I kind of feel like we should do it like once a month for a week. Like legitimately not go on any social media, except for like Pinterest.

When like things are in a certain situation, I just get off my phone for two weeks. Yeah. I highly recommend it. It's literally like getting off a drug where like the first four hours are difficult. You're like grabbing the phone. You're going for it. Well, it's just like a habit, like a sensation, like a fixation, oral fixation. It's like wanting to get a cigarette, but you can't.

Yes, yes. And then you get past that a little bit and then you realize, I'm going to have a husband. Yeah. And then you start thinking of plans. You're like maybe I should call someone, like literally what you were saying. Maybe I should do something fun. Like, I was like, what other hobbies can I do? Because also the algorithm, I don't care how well you curate it.

You're always going to see something that, like, as sensitive girls, it makes you feel something you shouldn't feel in that moment. Right. Whether it's, like, grief or something or anger. It's like, can we just keep the cortisol levels? I'm not cortisol. Like, can you tell them the story? Okay.

You know, that, like, crazy guy that does, like, the looks maxing and he's, like, 20-year-old. years old and he like takes meth. Glamazon or something? No, like literally. He was like, it's gay to like be attracted to women. That's what he said. Also, he's like not good looking still. His name is, um, a little torp.

I want to say clavicle. Clavicle. It's not clavicle. But it's like that. Clavicular. Clavicular. Okay. Which I don't even know.

Whatever. He got arrested. What did he got arrested for? He got arrested for like basically, what is it when you like insight violence. Like he made these two girls like basically fight, I think. So I think he did get arrested and like possibly going to jail. But I don't even, I just like saw that clip.

But I saw a video and he's like a streamer, which I still. I don't understand. I don't know what a streamer is. I do not get it. Like I don't understand at all. I know that men watch other men play video game sometimes. Which I think is whatever. You know what?

Keep the guns down. Put the guns down. Put the guns away. And watch whatever you guys. someone plays Super Mario Kart. I still don't understand what a streamer is and where you watch streamers. Like, I don't get what it. I don't get it.

I think it's on Yahoo. But whatever, he's like streaming and he's like fighting with some girl. I don't know if it's his girlfriend or not. But he says to her. I'm not cortisol spiking. And right when I heard it, I was like, that's my new brain rot. Wait, next time I face time you can you answer like that and be like, I'm not cortisol. I'm not cortisol.

Not Corda is all spiking right now. So I don't know what you have to say to me, but I refuse to do it. I don't want to hear it. Here's one thing. Another thing I will say. I had a woman who I like work with reach out to me the other day and say. How dare she? A woman who knows me.

I said, oh my God. Contacted me. What can you want from me? No, because I believe just because you can contact me doesn't mean I have to contact you back. And I fully implement that. But she reached out to me and she was like, I just want to let you know. I listened to Gigily Squad. and I was deciding between like going to a new job and like and I heard you say how much

you like bet on yourself when you guys were on tour and like the different decisions that you had to make and I just want to let you know I ended up deciding to like go in a new path and like take a new job and like bet on myself and I was like I forget people listen to us I go oh that no that was really inspirational he felt like that was so nice and also we don't want everyone to quit their jobs. It's just like if you already are teetering. No, no, no, it wasn't that. It was like if you have a big decision, whether it's like job or relationship or anything and you're like, what should I do? Like I just always think like the universe will reward you. Not for picking the harder thing, but picking the thing that's most you. Even if it's scary. You guys, the universe does reward

you and sometimes if you're in pain and you're going through something hard, that means something good's happening after. And I was very much in a situation where. where I was like, I knew I didn't want to stay on reality TV for so many reasons, but I was also so scared to not be on it. But I was just like, oh. Also, as I said before, 75% of statistics are wrong, but 44% of women are in the workforce to men, and only like around 33% have leadership roles.

And that's why a lot of women are starting their own companies because the patriarchy is still alive and well in the workforce. And sometimes you're like, I cannot watch these guys who are mediocre keep getting promoted ahead of me. And I'm just going to do my own shit because I'm sick of being taking advantage of. So go into corporate, learn everything you have to learn. And we support you. You know, another reason that I bet that older men are like starting to date like even younger women today is because women are like making more money than them.

And so they can really only go after like 25 year olds. It does remind me of all those TikToks of girls who are like corporate so funny because I walk in. and I'm just like working with someone's dad. I'm like, Edward, Edward, did you forward the chart? Wait, I forget that, like, there are people's dads that I, like, have on emails with. That I'm like, do better. I have a current vocal stem.

Yes. Have you seen the Kendall Tool video of Peloton where she's, like, get him banned. Yeah. Ooh, get them banned. We don't do that here. We don't tell us. that disrespect.

Ooh, get them banned. I knew you would love that one. I can't stop. See, I have to scroll. I can't stop falling into ribs. It's too much because I immediately feel like I'm in.

Did you ever go through that New York City like? Soul cycle? Just, it was soul cycle, fly wheel. And then what was the other one? There was another one. No,

I feel like there was like another one that was like trend. Yeah. That like went out of business. See, this is my thing. I've been so physically and mentally abused during collegiate athletics that like, I never wanted to be yelled at by someone. Also, I don't have no rhythm,

but like when you go to a soul cycle class and you see the girls in the front with their like bouncy shit, I was like, that's an art form that like I'm not even gonna try to tackle. That looks like it would take years to do. I went to like three flywheel classes because like the guy I was dating at the time

was like, you should go, you would like it. I was like, I love it. I love all the different versions of Paige in your 20s. She was a one woman show. She was versatile. Sorry that I had range. Okay?

You could plop me anywhere with anyone and I could talk to them and I had a great time. I do have some single friends though that like they're doing their range. Like they're deciding like, oh, I'm going to date like a crocodile hunter. Like whatever. But some of them are because I'm married and bored. Yeah. I'm like, I trust her and like she's living life and she's bringing the story. Like you need a friend in your group who's like in that time of her life.

Well, I'm just like such a big proponent of and I felt it and I never felt bad about saying it. And I feel like I had like boyfriends be like, it's a really mean thing to say. Like I knew when I would break up with whoever, I wasn't done going out. And I'd be like, sorry, I'm not done being for the streets. Like I'm not done going out. You're trying on different shoes. Yeah, like I don't want you to ask me like where I am. every single night and keep tabs on me.

Like I... When if she doesn't fit, you keep going through the aisle. When I was like 27, 28, if you had proposed to me and I had gotten married... You're talking about me? No, just saying like in the ethos. I would have been divorced. Yeah. Making no situation when I...

Because I would have seen other girls out and I would have been like... Take me with you. Okay, now that all the non-gigglers are gone, we'll tell you the real... Because you knew they were in the end. You knew there. They were in there. They're like, they're stupid.

They're not saying anything. Okay, this is what's going on. Did you have anything else on your docket? Well, worse news. Pickleball has been added to the Olympics for 2028. Wait, was the Kit Kat thing fake or real? Was it an April full stroke, Kana? Oh my God, don't point at me.

Sorry. I don't know. How pissed are you about pickleball, though? Look. Do you feel like it's coming for your art? I support women in the arts. Totally. I personally haven't played it because I'm afraid I'll get addicted.

And then the tennis community will be mad at me. Okay. It's just interesting. It's just, I don't have any, honestly, I don't have an opinion. Difference between pickleball and paddle. Paddle is more respected. It's European. Got it.

It's South American. Great question. It should be. It's really, all the tennis players like paddle. So pickleball is going to be in the next summer Olympics. Yeah. But like they've had breakdancing. Like it's not even like a big, like you could have anything in the Olympics if they

have like a good marketing team. Really? Yeah, you could have fucking kitten heel walking. I'm writing that. I talk to my team. Which I'm not going to make the team. Wait, why is that just a great saying kitten heel walking? Sorry, I'm doing my kitten heel walking.

Wait, I would assume it's like you have to go through a committee. You have to like present why your sport should be in the Olympics. Like I would think that there's like, you have to like give the head of a pig to the person who invented the Olympics. Like, I don't know. I'm thinking that. there's like a whole rigmarole situation. I think drag should be in the Olympics. A hundred percent.

I would think lip sync drag should be in the Olympics. Let's go. Rue. Now we're talking. Put it on the docket. Put it on the docket. No, but the break dancing thing was we don't talk about it. We skipped.

We moved on so quickly. I mean, I made my whole identity for like six months. Like really, when you break it down, someone like broke into the Olympics. It was the heist. When you break it down, no pun intended. And she couldn't. She could not break it down. That was crazy.

Every now and then I check her Instagram. And what is she doing? I don't know. I think she was kind of. You were really connected with her. Yeah, I think she's still fighting the good fight. She's like, people misunderstood me. She was like, you don't.

You don't understand. It was edited. I got a bad edit. People are really mad at Talente. Four. I love how worked up you just got because they came for your Italian heritage. What are they round of them for? It's like impossible to open up a telentee.

Now you have my, now you have my ears. So like the way it is a cool, what's it called? Container. Pint. Yeah, it's a cool container pint. But like to open it, like when it's in the freezer, it gets like impossible. So there's always videos of people taking like nail guns and like knives and doing all these crazy things to open it.

But then part of me is like maybe it's good because you know, no one ever needs. eat ice cream. No, but no one's ever been like, if I don't get this ice cream right now, I'm going to die. We have a lot of pregnant listeners, so Santanto's down on that. And I've never been pregnant. And I, there have been times where I'm like, if I don't get the pistachio, not the mint, I know they're both green, use your eyes. Like, if you've ever tried to order, no, I'm actually getting pissed. If you've ever tried to order a pint of ice cream on Instacard or like Uber eats or whatever your medium is and you get a man and he just gets because it's green. I'm like if you get the mint, if you get me mint, I will riot.

Mint is disgusting. Mint with chocolate is so vile to me. Yeah, yeah. I like minty though. No, but what I'm saying is there are those moments where like I could see you like trying to open the tilinti and be like, I like put it under hot water. I'd be like, do I actually need this right now? Or is this just an impulse?

is it 3 a.m. Yeah. I'm also a savory girl. Like, I want a cheeseburger. I want a penny ale vodka. Like I'll wake up in the morning and be like, it took great day to have cheesecake later. Des told me that he used to wake up at like 6 a.m.

and go to his freezer and eat like a layer of the ice cream. So his parents couldn't tell. So he would like delicately eat a layer of it and do it every day. One time when I was little, I stole like a thing of frosting. and I just kept it in my bedroom. Because, like, frosting doesn't go bad. And one day my mom was like, why do you have this?

And I was like, I don't know. It's true frosting. I guess it doesn't go bad. It doesn't. I had a friend whose mom, like, never let her have candy. So I went in her bed one day. And she was like, look at this. And under her bed, she had, like, tons of candy.

And I was like, just come to my house. My mom, let's just have candy whenever we want. Yeah. I was same. We were like, well, I don't know if we knew. Italian households, they love a cup of chocolate when you walk in. Yeah. Do you want a Ferreiro, Roche?

You don't like Ferreira Rochay? Thinking about hosting, like now I get why my mom was so crazy when we were younger. Like, I could sit in the living room and hear like, oh, someone's coming over. And she'd be like, we don't have a cake. Where's the seven-layer dip? Like, what do we have? And my parents keep a frozen cheesecake in the freezer, in the garage in case.

Someone comes over. What's it called? She's like, bring out the fondue. The fondue mountain. She's like, I have nothing to serve them. I think you're going to be the hostess with the mostus. No, I'm very excited. I'll definitely put some picks in the newsletter because I'm really working on my

table scape and I hope that my mom is proud of me. I know. And I've seen all the packages coming in. And like it's early. Like my brunch are to 10. Do you want my help? Or do you think I'm going to be actually distracting? Yeah.

Just. See, that's what you're telling people. That's what you're telling people. They're like, why don't you help? And I go, because I would have made it worse. You'll come over. You'll see my mom and you'll be like, we haven't talked. Let's get into it.

Kimberly. Oh, Kimberly, I'm so excited to see her. I just can't believe we, you watch me get dressed on FaceTime. Who wear better? The funniest thing is we both have perfect vision. This is insane of us. Wait, now I feel stupid. Now I feel dumb.

Okay, now I really feel dumb. That's what I was going to say for the, um, we don't do that here. Yeah. Bam, we don't do that here. I wanted to say when other people make fun of Paige not be able to read. Like, that'll piss me off. I'm like, okay, she's actually really, like, you know how many times I've done like, actually she's actually really fucking smart. Actually, she's fucking.

She's smart than me. She's a genius. And everyone's like, but you make fun of her saying she can't read every single episode. I go, because she's a genius. Get in on the joke. Like, we're being sarcastic. Do you ever get a phone call in the morning and you have to answer, but do you try to pretend like you're not asleep? All the time.

Like you didn't just wake up. What's your, what's your strategy? Red leather, yellow leather, red leather, yellow leather. All the time, people are like, you just wake up? Yeah. And I go, no, I'm sick. Oh, that's a good one. Sometimes I'll give, like, oh, kitty, like, was up all night.

Kitty looks over, like, the fuck I was. You know I've been sleeping for 20 hours. I've been like, sorry, I've been just writing. No. But we are creatives. Yes. So we do stay up a little bit later because we don't have a traditional boss, as they say. Not to call you out.

You were quite productive this morning, though, over text. Well, I was mad about something. Oh. Like, I literally separately texted Grace and was like, his page, like, okay. If you piss me off, I'll be at the gym at 8 a.m. when I'm mad things are getting done oh I'm turning into my mom oh my god wait I actually just had a moment I'm gonna start crying because not like actually but like you know when you're younger and like your mom's pissed off about something and you're like fuck like she could pick up any like there's

anything could happen and she's gonna go off whenever my mom would get mad I feel like she would like come in my room and like and this and this is just all over the place and you're like okay like that's it's been all over the place but that's me like if something pisses me off and I can't like take it out on that that's really bad I should talk about it in therapy. I'll write it down look at us realizing things. That was really healthy. Yeah because I'll wake up and be like and guess what else isn't working the TV so figure it out like anything could set me off.

Yeah, that's like when you're pouring your coffee and like a little milk spills and your day's been going bad already. And you're like, are you serious? Can I get a day? Speaking of woman of STEM of the week. Oh, my God. Her name is at eMoney on the track. Shout out. She follows me.

That was pretty cool. She, why do I feel like a DJ radio DJ? Shout out in Staten Island. E Money on the track. Shout out. Um, she's doing, do you know what a crow poses? Okay, if you're a yogi, a crow poses a hard, hard pose. Okay.

And she's doing a side crow pose, which you can only imagine. I actually can. I can't. I can go with you. Like, usually I can follow you, but this one I... She's doing like a side crow pose. Okay. And then her head is like floating.

Okay. And then she's sipping up where all spreads. Okay. And I think that. earned woman of stem of the week. Okay. Because like you're doing yoga and you're getting drunk. Are girls still drinking apparel spritz?

Like do you think it's still a thing or it was just? Yes. That's the difference between me and you. What do you mean? Don't play innocent. I don't like apparel sprits. Okay. Because I was going to say aesthetic girls love apparel spritz because of the flat lay

because the color is so nice. I think it tastes like robitussin. It does, but it looks so hydrant. It looks like Gatorie Zero. And I try it every. summer. I'm like maybe this is the summer that like I love apparel spritz. Yeah, I want to be a girl who likes apparel spritz, but here we are. No, I want to be a girl that can like get drunk and not get hungover. No, it's not even that. I would take the hungover. I don't even get to the point of like

being drunk and having fun. Yeah. Like I'm already like, I'm like, sorry, I have to go. I have to throw up. Like I can't do that. Shout out to another girl who got women of stem of the week. What's it called when you didn't win, but you got runner. Yeah, she got runner up. She posted a video. Her name's M.G. She's like when you're about to get proposed to, but you don't know and you're not getting out at the pool.

And it's her friend filming her where like, you know when you get in the pool and you're like, this one doing for the next eight hours? And she's like doing mermaid. She's doing handstands. She's having a day. She's having a day. She's flapping around. And everyone's like, when is she going to get out of the pool?

Like he's trying to propose to her. And I feel like that is girlhood and that makes me so happy. That's so you. That's so me. If I'm like a sleep and like does woke me up to propose to me, I was like, can I get like an hour more sleep? Yeah. And then we could do this. If and when I get engaged, I feel like it's going to be really hard to surprise me.

Even if you did it successfully, you still would smell it off them. 100%. And here's the other thing. I'm asking my mom and my mom's telling me. Yeah. Like if I have a vibe and I say, mom, do you know anything about this? She's telling me. Can I also say something controversial?

Yeah. If your guy does surprise you. Yeah. That means he's a liar and he's a cheater. If he's that good at hiding something from you, I don't want to marry you. I want it clunky. I do think it's a red flag

if you're getting engaged to someone and no one knows like he's doing it and he hasn't told any of your friends. He hasn't told any of your friends. He hasn't asked your dad. I mean, not everyone does the like ask your dad thing but did Des do the ask your dad thing?

Well, that was actually a really funny story. I was in the bathroom as I almost am. Yeah. With the door open. It's right next to the garage. And Des was in the garage with my dad. And they're speaking very loud. And of course I can overhear them.

And he basically was like, hey, can I like marry your daughter? Oh my God, wait. You never told me that. So you heard him ask. I've literally heard it. And my heart sank. I was like, this is so annoying. And then of course my dad goes, yeah, she's your problem now, making a joke.

They're laughing. And I'm like, what the fuck? And then my dad. dad walks in tells my mom. So even if I hadn't heard that, I then hear him telling my mom. Like my, my New York family is so fucking loud. No one can keep a secret. Then I get out of the bathroom. I'm like, hey, I heard everything. So how quickly from then to when he did it? Maybe like one or two months. But a funny thing that happened is we were in West Hampton. And he kept being like, I need to go to the city. And I felt like it was for a reason for the thing.

And we had to go to city and we were fostering, like, really shy pit bulls, like pit bulls that needed help. And he opens the door to go to the city, and this pit bull runs out. Like after him? Yeah. But we basically are, like, chasing up a huge pit bull around West Hampton. This is my nightmare. And it ends up taking, like, two hours. And Des is, like, normally pretty calm in these situations.

And he's, I could tell he's, like, freaking out. And I'm like, we're going to get the dog. It's fine. Like, there's nowhere for the dog to go. like we're on an island and we get the dog and I find out later he had an appointment to get the ring so he was like freaking out and I'm here just laughing because the dog like we just try to get the dog and it keeps running away from us and I think it's so funny and he's like not the time I really think my dad's going to be like no uh my dad was like are you ready to get a twitch

yeah I think my dad's going to be like ah let me ask my wife and we'll get we'll let you know I know for a fact that. He's going to be like, yeah, I don't like this at all. He's going to be like, what, you know what? I don't think he's been nervous for it because anyone I date, my dad's like, she's just playing. She's just having fun. He doesn't take anything seriously. I feel like anyone you dated in the past hasn't had like a moment to even like talk to your dad like that. He's watching the news in the other room. No, my dad's not making, he's not available. Also, they have to go through me first. Yeah. There's like a lot of steps before you get to your dad. Totally. How did we even get on that? You have to fight me first. You have to get a physical altercation with you.

I wish I could bring something up from like TikTok or like anything that I saw this week. Well, do you know what happened? I deleted all my apps. But then I messaged our Jen Alpha Z correspondent, my cousin Andrea. And I said, hey, what's going on on TikTok? She gets me on a voice note with her friend. And they're trying to explain to me about Olivia Rodriguez. go. She came out with a new album. Yeah, but how she was in the same party as Taylor Swift when they famously have beef. It was at the same party. Paul McCartney's party.

And you know who was also there, John Mayer, who Taylor Swift has wrote a lot of stuff about. And they were. So that was from Andrea. I was like, what do I say to the gigglers? And they left me like a long thing. So thank you, Andrea, for that tea. But she doesn't know what it means. At the end of the day, Paul McCartney is like an eye.

icon. I think they all want to be their support. What kind of party? I think it was a listening part. I don't know. What people do at parties? I don't know. The fact that people in Hollywood who are so rich and famous still want to go to parties, I'm like, when does it end? Well, you know, that's actually something that's very interesting because I feel like the like socializing scene in L.A., New York, and Miami is so completely different. I don't like any of it. I'm probably not going to any of them. So they're similar. But like New York is so like you might. go to dinner. Like, what, you're famished.

You haven't eaten. I don't know why they're all of a sudden British. And then it's like out. And then it's someone's apartment where like L.A. I feel like they skip. Crazy house parties. Yeah, just you go to someone's house in the middle of nowhere where there's no cell phone service.

And everyone's like, what do you do? Are you represented by? Who do you know here? I've only gone to like a couple parties in L.A. before. One, I did almost get abducted. Yeah. Slash murdered. Another one, me and you spoke to nobody and were just in the corner.

What one was that? One the dark one. It was like a bar. Yes. We got French fries. Anyway, I digress. Okay, now that all the non-gigglers are like for sure gone, because they thought they were before, but now they are. I just want to let you guys know.

Hannah's never told a lie. Name one time that Hannah's lied. I do have to say, I want us to like actually learn from the situation as a whole. Mm-hmm. When you feel wronged by someone or things didn't go well, do not. not try to get revenge. Do not try to hurt them. Do not think about them in negative ways. Literally say thank you and focus on yourself because the more you attach to the old energy, what they put at you, they're putting in other people, they're putting towards themselves.

Remove yourself from the situation and their stuff is going to be handled. Leave that to God. Leave that to whatever you believe in. Yeah. Focus on yourself. Keep your hands clean. Go to sleep at peace. And I focus on myself. And I try to stay out of drama. Occasionally drama comes to me and I hear about it. It finds us. It finds us. And that's women in the arts. Unless you're a man, then I'm coming for you. Don't rest. If you've ever dated me, don't rest. That speech was for girls. Don't rest. Okay, that's all the time for today. We love you so much. Thanks for giggling. Bye.
