Wait, I don't know why this just triggered this, but this is so funny. Okay. So we, when we got home from tour, we got home what? Friday night, we drove home from Atlantic City and then Saturday, my mom stayed with me all day and then took the train later in the day. One of the things she said to me was,
Starting point is 00:03:07 Hannah's always so happy, she's always in such a good mood. I was like, no, literally I think I could count on my hand how many times I've actually seen her upset or in a bad mood. She goes, and she's so silly, everything she says is silly and I start laughing. I'm like, no, I know, she's so silly, like everything she says is like silly. And I like start laughing. I'm like, no, I know she's so funny. And she goes, it's interesting because.
Starting point is 00:03:32 Say it. If anyone else had Hannah's personality, you would hate them. You would get so annoyed. personality you would hate them you would get so annoyed but everything she says you're dying laughing and I start laughing just like thinking about you she's like she's like your real best friend. I was like, no, I think everything she says is pure comedy gold. She's not as funny as you think she is.
Starting point is 00:04:11 She's the average person who would be like, okay, we get it. Someone's insecure. Something wrong with you guys. You think everything is funny. I'm like, no, it is. No, we have it. We have it. Well thank you Kim for calling me a little silly goose.
Starting point is 00:04:28 We had fun on tour. No we had fun. We had fun with your mom on tour. However we almost died again. No we almost died. Should we discuss? Should we go right into it? Well I decided I have a rule. If it takes less
Starting point is 00:04:44 than three hours to drive somewhere, we're gonna drive instead of plane. Because even if a plane's quick, the whole driving, so whatever. So this took three and a half hours to drive, but I was like, we're doing it. We're going at night, we're gonna fly through traffic. Because after shows, you're all hyped up.
Starting point is 00:04:58 You're hyped up. There's also something like about being on the East Coast where like, you're like, we'll just drive. Like we were in Washington, D.C. I'm not flying. We don't know where anything is on the East Coast. We just know that we're close. I have a better gauge of where we are
Starting point is 00:05:14 when we're on the East Coast, obviously, than like the West Coast. So- Florida, Rhode Island, same shit. We do a show in our last show in Washington, D.C. and then the next day we have to be in Atlantic City. So after Washington DC we're like, let's just get in a car service, drive to Atlantic City. And it was kind of a last minute decision on our part.
Starting point is 00:05:33 I'm like, fuck it, we're driving, let's go. It was a last minute decision. Also, I like driving because it's just me, you and Grace. So we're all together, it's easy. Three is an easy number. But the first drama started where you go in the back where you like to go because you like to lay down. I get the third row.
Starting point is 00:05:53 But Kim was in the car with us and I'm not putting Kim in the back. Kim is mother, period. I said Kim, you go in the seat over there and you're not sitting next to the strange man in the front. And neither is Grace. Grace is our CEO. So she gets a bucket So she gets like a seat so I go to the back and I can feel your eyes looking at me I can feel you being like how do you like this and I'm like, I felt like
Starting point is 00:06:18 Who are you? This is the back row. This is for sleepy iPad kids. I'm like, forget I'm here. And you're watching, like, This Is Us. No, you're watching Grey's Anatomy now. So you're all in on it. I'm deep in Grey's Anatomy. Your mom tries to talk to you and you're like, I'm watching Grey's Anatomy.
Starting point is 00:06:38 What do you think this is? A fucking Ted Talk? No, when I travel, I have to get into my own cuckoo and I have to be in myself. Be with myself. Kim's like, why did you bring me here if you're just gonna watch No, when I travel I have to get into my own cocoon and I have to be in myself, be with myself. Kim's like, why did you bring me here if you're just going to watch Grace and Admi the whole time? She's a good energy source to have.
Starting point is 00:06:52 So we're in the car, we're driving. The three, Hannah, Grace and my mom are like chatting, talking. It's like the first hour of the ride. I'm headphones watching my iPad. Something comes over me. I think maybe I saw Hannah laughing and I was like, what is Hannah laughing about? I want to know what they're talking about. We were actually having like a really cute talk with Kim and we were like talking
Starting point is 00:07:14 about you a little, like when you were little or something, I was looking back at you and I, you sensed there was fun energy happening. So I take my headphones off and now I'm engaged in the conversation. I don't notice it as much when we're leaving Washington, DC because it's probably what, like 11 p.m. And there was a little bit of traffic. It's a car service, it wasn't an Uber,
Starting point is 00:07:39 so I'm really not thinking about it. We're on the road now, we're like an hour and a half into the car ride, maybe two hours into the car ride. And I take my headphones- It's like midnight. Yeah, it's like midnight. I'm now alert in the car and I'm noticing the driver. And I rarely, am I rarely ever like this,
Starting point is 00:08:03 but if there's one thing about me, I do not fuck around in cars. Like, I don't know if in a past life something did happen to me in a car, because like even in high school, like I've never thought it was funny to go super fast, like I do not. I was always the kid in the car that was like,
Starting point is 00:08:22 put your fucking seatbelt on and like don't do that Like I don't like any shenanigans. That's why I don't drive. Yeah We don't we don't care Hannah doesn't have a license it's for the greater good But my thing is cuz I don't drive. I don't have those little Yeah, I have no fucking clue what's going Someone could ram a curb and I'll be like, do you wanna go to Wendy's? I don't care and I don't notice anything and I'm just here for fun.
Starting point is 00:08:53 I'm here for the funsies. So the first thing I notice is we're in a two lane highway, we're in the left lane, tractor trailer's in the right lane. He's coming up to pass us and our driver starts to go into the shoulder where like the bumps are like we're feeling it and I feel that he's put and I'm like the tractor trailer is getting that close to us that like we need to be in the shoulder of the lane like is this guy like losing control of the car that
Starting point is 00:09:21 kerfuffle gets like fixed he's like back on the road. Okay, now I'm alert. Now I'm watching his eyes in the rear view mirror from the third row and he's taking really long blinks and I'm like, this fucking guy, is he like? See, I'm trying to see him but it's gotten dark at that point and at this point, everything's gone silent in the car and we're all speaking with our eyes. I'm looking at you, you're looking at that point. And at this point, everything's gone silent in the car and we're all speaking with our eyes.
Starting point is 00:09:47 I'm looking at you, you're looking at your mom, she's looking at Grace, Grace is looking at me, I'm looking at you. This goes on for like 30 minutes where this guy keeps doing weird shit. Doing weird shit. In the beginning of the car ride, which Hannah pointed out, this is great detective work,
Starting point is 00:10:04 Hannah pointed out that in the beginning of the car ride we pulled off to a gas station, which I thought when you gotta go, you gotta go. This guy had a pee, we're about to get in on a three hour car ride, he's gotta go. Hannah said, flags up. That was weird. I've never had a driver stop in the beginning of the ride.
Starting point is 00:10:22 Usually they're a little bit more prepared. He got a snack. So yeah, this is the thing he 25 minutes in is like can I pull over I've never had it also I'm like pee in the in the woods like I don't know like we don't need to whatever yeah I was fine with it but then he was gone for kind of a bit and he comes back without a coffee or a Red Bull yep which is also fucking weird. He just got chips. So we're in full investigative mode
Starting point is 00:10:49 and that was while you were still on your iPad and Grace and your mom who were better at driving than me look at each other and they were like, is he driving kind of aggressive? So they already were on his case but then. Ears were perked up. We were in it. So then he starts to, we're in the middle lane,
Starting point is 00:11:10 he starts to go really slow. And I, so like my head is like... 55. Yeah, 55 on like a major highway. With no traffic on the highway. Yeah, like a... Yeah. So I say to him, I speak up and I go,
Starting point is 00:11:21 sir, are you okay to drive? Do you wanna pull over for a little? Are you getting tired? Because I mean, it is like 1230 at this point. He which I was so proud of you for speaking up because I didn't have the balls. I was like, I do not want to upset this man. Take me out. If that's how I die, that's how I die. I'm not accusing this man of falling asleep right now.
Starting point is 00:11:40 He could be passed out in the car and I wouldn't want to wake him up. And Hannah in the car, and I wouldn't want to wake him up Row as soon as I speak up and start talking looking Hannah crouch And like ducks her head down It is so funny that we did reality TV because I can't explain to people how much I hate confrontation. I like sir. I remember. No, but you were so polite about it. You were just like, sir, are you OK?
Starting point is 00:12:10 I think it was so awkward because it was so obvious that he wasn't OK. Because he was like, I think he was not OK. He kept not using his blinker because I think he was just like, like he was falling asleep and then going to another lane to pretend he was on purpose when it wasn't. And it wasn't not a blinker in sight, Hannah. And then there were some, not a blinker in sight. A blinker has not been used at one point in this car.
Starting point is 00:12:32 And like, I don't know how to use a blinker, but I know you have to use it. No, you were right. You were so spot on. And then there was a turn he had to do, and he like did not make the turn. No, I mean. Wait, do you remember what I said?
Starting point is 00:12:43 I said, this is, I whispered to you, I said, this is how I drive during my nightmares when I have to drive and I can't control the car. And I need to wake up. How Hannah drives in her dream is how it felt being in this car. So he then does this really crazy turn, like off of an exit to like get on like this different
Starting point is 00:13:09 highway and I mean, we almost go full force into a cement wall and that's when I go, okay. So then I speak up again and I go, sir, do you mind pulling off on the next exit? And he goes, yeah, no problem. Pulls off on the next exit. I go, literally any parking lot, pick a parking lot. So I'm laughing because Paige is just in like,
Starting point is 00:13:31 we need to fix this mode where I'm thinking, we have to explain to this guy what's going on even though he's pretending he's fine. So you just go any parking lot and he's like, the wah-wah, do you want Popeyes? I go, you pick. Paige is like, right here. So it's this bank that's closed and we're sitting there.
Starting point is 00:13:46 And Paige is like, I'm calling an Uber to her mom. Well, she shows us. So I'm like, OK, perfect. Then it says 13 minutes away. So I'm like, are we all just going to sit here in silence for 13 minutes? And the guy is like, do you want food? And Paige is like, no, thank you. And I'm just like, oh god, this is so awkward.
Starting point is 00:14:01 So then Uber's not moving. I made it 10 times more awkward than it needed to be. But I'm like, I'm going to go get some food. I'm like, I'm going to go get some food. I'm like, I'm going to go get some food. I'm like, I'm going to go get some food. I'm like, I'm going to go get some food. I'm like, I'm just like oh god this is so awkward. So then Uber's not moving. I made it 10 times more awkward than it needed to be. But I was also pissed. Well you were pissed and then I don't okay I was scared. So then finally your mom is like Paige let's just go to a Wawa, shout out Wawa. Two seconds down the road. So I text the Uber driver, it was a girl, which a saint of a woman. I text the Uber driver and I go, I'm literally across the street at the Wawa, can you pull in there?
Starting point is 00:14:33 And she goes, yep, no problem. So the three of us- And I'm like, are we sure a woman driver is the next best option? So we get into the Wawa, the three of us, and the Uber's like. Well we start having a meeting. Yep.
Starting point is 00:14:49 So all of us are whispering, we're like, okay what the fuck is going on? And we're whispering to each other like, are you okay, what's happening? And then he comes in the Wawa, and Grace and I run into the bathroom, and then Grace and I are hiding in the bathroom. And then he walks out, gets back into the car,
Starting point is 00:15:03 and then at that point our Uber is like about to pull in. Still doesn uber is like about to still doesn't get a coffee still doesn't get a coffee doesn't get an energy drink nothing so Hannah and grace come out and they're like what are you had to be like come out yeah there's like we have to go get our bags and great and Hannah's like what are we saying to the guy and I go nothing we're just saying we're getting you go I'll handle it I'll handle it I go I'll talk I'll talk you go I'll handle it I go okay so then Paige just walks first and she just starts taking the stuff out of the car and the guy's like are you okay and she goes yep she just starts taking out the car walks out so then I'm left standing with him and he's like, what's going on?
Starting point is 00:15:46 And I go, our friend's picking us up. And he's like. So then he goes, okay, I'll wait for your friend to come. And I was like, it's okay. But this is like 1 a.m. at a wah-wah in the middle of nowhere. Us three beautiful women, four beautiful women, just helpless on the
Starting point is 00:16:06 corner all I could think in my head is no fucking way is my legacy stopping at dead in Atlantic City age 31 I refuse like there's just no way that's where my journey ends but no we were in a death trap, but then our people pleasing was, we're gonna stay in that death trap because we didn't wanna make this guy uncomfortable. But then part of me was like, is he falling asleep? Or like, was he just like drunk or high or really bad at driving?
Starting point is 00:16:37 And then at one point you were like, do I have to drive? Yeah, that was my first thought. I was gonna say, hey, why don't you pull over? I was gonna say like, is this your car or like the company's car? Cause why don't you pull over and I'll just drive the next 45 minutes. But then I didn't want him, I didn't wanna say that
Starting point is 00:16:56 and him be like, no, no, no, what are you talking about? And that's get into like a kerfuffle. And I was like, you know what? Path of least resistance. I'm getting a car, making sure that it's right here, then we're leaving. My favorite is how the whole time I was like, this is so awkward and then I was the last person
Starting point is 00:17:13 to speak to him and explain what was going on and I go, look, a friend just randomly said, hey, I'm gonna meet you at Wawa at the stop in New Jersey. Well, first of all, no is a complete sentence. He didn't need to know where we were going or what was going on. That's not what he was there for.
Starting point is 00:17:29 He also didn't help us get the stuff out of the car. Take the bags out of the car. That was so weird to me. Anyway, it was fucking weird. But then this lady came, an angel. An angel sent from Earth took us the next 45 minutes to the Hard Rock Casino. We yapped the entire way there about how we almost got killed.
Starting point is 00:17:50 But honestly Hannah, what an amazing societal teaching moment. Because all of those nerves about saying something to him is literally because you don't ever want to make a man feel like you're accusing them or saying something. But what was the alternative? We died in a fucking car accident. I couldn't let it happen. Do you know what helped me? Well, it didn't help me, but I saw a video that hopefully will help someone else, is clearly they don't care that they're making you uncomfortable. So why are you caring that you're making them uncomfortable?
Starting point is 00:18:30 And I think we could use this also in your early 20s when you're with a dude and he's making you uncomfortable in whatever type of way, and you're like, well, I don't wanna make him upset. Or an older guy who's saying weird stuff to you, and you're like, well, he's making you uncomfortable. It's like when someone, a crazy saying weird stuff to you and you're like, well, I don't, he's making you uncomfortable. It's like when like someone, a crazy person comes up to you on the street, be crazy bad.
Starting point is 00:18:49 Yeah. No, all I could think was like in the next second something's gonna happen and I'm gonna be like, why the fuck didn't I say something and get us out of this situation? No, you were the champion. Who knew? You know why you did it?
Starting point is 00:19:05 Because you were the only one on Beta Blocker. It was the only one who had a body calm. I was like, I can handle this. I was like, my blood pressure is a perfect 85. No, you saved our lives. Look, tour life is not boring. No. That's one thing.
Starting point is 00:19:24 It's not boring. They, tour life is not boring. No. That's one thing. It's not boring. They literally never adult moment. Then we get to our hotel at like 1 a.m. And it's just. It was like 1 30. It's just so Atlantic City. It's just the vibes and all of it. Casinos are fun because they're for like older people
Starting point is 00:19:40 who hate their children but want to go to Disney World. No, I just kept like thinking about like, what was Atlantic City like in the 50s and 60s? I do think it was out of season. Speaking of seasons, there's this podcast called Two Dykes and a Mic. Okay.
Starting point is 00:19:54 That came across my algorithm. And they said something very interesting and funny. They said summer is for gay men. Yeah. Fall is for lesbians. Okay. And then winter is for straight women and then like Christmas and stuff.
Starting point is 00:20:13 Yeah. And then I don't know if they finished it, but I guess then straight men is spring and it's very, it was interesting how we all got a season. That is interesting. And bisexuals get everything, I guess. And can I tell you something to even further prove your point?
Starting point is 00:20:29 For whatever reason, I think it's because it's my first holiday season in my new apartment. I've been ordering Christmas decorations, can't stop. And I'm never a Christmas person. I wanna decorate, I'm never like a Christmas person. Like I wanna decorate, I wanna do all these things. Can't find the right garland, driving me nuts. Babe, it's not even Halloween yet. I know, well I already have my pumpkins out.
Starting point is 00:20:54 So like, I'm over that. We're onto the next thing. I'm onto the next thing. We're onto the next thing. Also people have been asking, we are dressing up for our Seattle show. We are dressing up. So if you don't dress up, you won't be stoned or anything,
Starting point is 00:21:06 but if you do dress up, we are supporting you. Someone did email me. Someone did DM me and ask if there was like a theme. No theme. Hannah and I were gonna do like a together one, but now we're being individualists. Yeah, we're being individualists. Also, another side note about TikTok.
Starting point is 00:21:26 I don't know if it's just because I spent the last two days scrolling as my mental health, but the algorithm, my algorithm is so bad right now. Like, first of all, you know, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, no, think about baby, the boy's dancing. Have you seen that thing where the guys go, I can't do this for your daughter.
Starting point is 00:21:46 I love your daughter. I can do this and then they dance. No. All I know is if you watch one thing right now with TikTok, it thinks you're obsessed with it and then we'll show you like 40 of the same videos. The Gracie Abrams song, which I love, but it's a sad song and I don't like sad songs, it makes me stuck in my head.
Starting point is 00:22:05 I think it subconsciously is bad for you. Everything is this Gracie Abrams song. And then I am obsessed with the Menendez brothers right now, but it's the only three things on my feed. And it's driving me up the wall because I know that there's other things on TikTok that I would enjoy. Does that happen to you?
Starting point is 00:22:24 You have the same shit. A little bit, yeah. Where I find myself scrolling out of the TikTok app a lot more than I usually do, where I'm like, okay, I'm over TikTok. I guess you can say not interested in stuff, but that's not the whole point of an algorithm. But long story short, I am enthralled
Starting point is 00:22:45 by the Menendez brothers, and in November they might be released. Did you watch the Netflix like actual document? You did, I might watch it tonight. Is it really good? Which I highly recommend. I highly recommend people watch. And it still didn't have all the information
Starting point is 00:23:01 because I got even more from TikTok. But the Ryan Murphy one is like cute. It doesn't represent really things accurately at all. It scratches the surface. First of all, I mean, it makes me so upset for these men, but basically they said that in the jury, all the men said the guys were guilty and then all the women said that the guys were it was manslaughter which means
Starting point is 00:23:30 like that it was murder but it wasn't like premeditated behind it of defense exactly it was premeditated but that it would there was like a reason behind it were feared for their life they were fearful for their's cause the women were able to empathize with abuse where the men, sexual abuse was not a thing for men in the 90s. Which is just. The church and all that stuff came out later but it was like the timing and cause OJ just got,
Starting point is 00:23:58 was not guilty. The DA was like, we cannot let another like rich person get away. Get off. In the next, sorry I like don't know how to use words with law stuff, see you in court. I'd be the worst lawyer ever. But the next trial, they basically weren't able to show the abuse portion because the judge said
Starting point is 00:24:19 that abuse was purely a woman's thing. And then people were like okay why did he kill, okay, why did he kill the mom? Why did he kill the mom? You should never kill anyone. I'm saying that right now, you should never kill anyone. But it did come out that Lyle was getting sexually abused by the mom. See, that's not in the show.
Starting point is 00:24:39 No, no. Okay, you know what? I actually, I would have killed those people so long before. Like that's disgusting. Yeah, this is my thing too. And it's obviously you should not kill people and they needed to go to jail, cause that was insane.
Starting point is 00:24:57 But they were saying that like the men, the lawyer said that these boys, she could tell they were horribly abused because they actually like did well in prison because they had some structure and they weren't getting abused and they actually enjoyed having a place of safety. I'm getting my period next week and I'm crying.
Starting point is 00:25:19 That makes me so sad for them. No, I know. And then all these men that will say, oh like you don't fucking kill your parents Whatever it's like yeah, but then if you tell that man like someone touched your daughter They'd be like I'll fucking kill that guy No, that's what they did They had this macho and they were in sand their brains are fully formed and they thought that was the best solution Which is not killing is never the right solution
Starting point is 00:25:41 No, if you abused my child or did something to my family member, I'm killing you. I don't give a fuck. If you touched my child, oh my God, I would literally shoot you in the face and call the police on myself. So it's very interesting, and at the least, the Kadook has spread awareness to boys get abused too. And whew, I'm deep in it right now.
Starting point is 00:26:08 I'm so upset about it. And also they kept calling the fucking lawyer crazy, which mind you, whenever you look back to a story with a girl that they were calling crazy, this bitch is always right. She's always ahead of her time. Yeah. And that's just history.
Starting point is 00:26:24 That's her story. No, it's, oh my God. Okay her time. Yeah. And that's just history, that's her story. No, it's, oh my God, okay, I'm glad you watched that because I was. I highly recommend it. I was debating if I was gonna watch it or not or if it was just gonna be like a repeat of like everything I've pretty much. No, I think it's good, but you'll be like
Starting point is 00:26:39 deeply entrenched and you'll keep having like dreams about it and your TikTok will blow up with it. Support for today's episode comes from Honeylove. Sometimes bras are just a must. There's certain tops where you literally can't go outside if you're not wearing a bra and it has to be comfortable. Honeylove has revolutionized the wireless bra game. Their bras feature supportive bonding that eliminates the need for uncomfortable wires
Starting point is 00:27:06 and unnecessary bulk. I like to get a good pushup when I can here and there, but I don't need the bulk under certain outfits because there are certain tops where I don't want you to know that I'm wearing a bra.

Starting point is 00:29:45 code GIGGLI to get your first month free. Okay, speaking of dreams. So last night I am in bed and I'm sleeping. It's about, I would say it's like 430. I wake up, but I don't wake up where I'm like, my eyes are open. Like I wake up like I'm not asleep anymore, but like I'm turning my pillow and in my head, I'm like, I kind of have to pee,
Starting point is 00:30:16 but not enough to like get up and go pee. I'm like, oh, I'll catch that pee on the next wake up. Like I'm good. I really don't even think about it. I think about it for a second, then I fall back asleep. At like 7 a.m., I don't even know. I just like wake up and I feel like my pants and I just like touch my pants and I'm like,
Starting point is 00:30:43 oh my God, did I pee my pants? And I look over because Craig was at my apartment and I look over and he's not in the bed. And I'm like, what the, like what's going on? And I jump up out of bed, I run to my bathroom, I peed my, I had a pair of sweatpants on, thank God. I peed so much in my sweatpants. I go back to my bed to like see if I peed in the bed. Nothing's in the bed. Craig comes back into my room. I'm like,
Starting point is 00:31:15 where were you? He was like, oh, I just like went pee in the other bathroom. And he was like, what are you doing up? And I was like, I peed my pants. And he was like, what the fuck are you talking about? And I was like, I don't know, I peed my pants. So then I don't know how it happened. I don't know what happened. And so then like a couple hours later, I'm like, I feel like I'm getting a UTI. And so I don't know, usually when my immune system's down
Starting point is 00:31:46 I feel like that's when I get UTIs. I don't know if I was just like so tired or if like my bladder was like getting weak because I was getting UTI and I just peed. Well, you know, don't UTIs like give this intense feeling like you have to pee? Yeah, I wonder if like I had it and I just, my body was just like,
Starting point is 00:32:07 no, we gotta get it out. First of all, I got, we got some crazy texts from you today. It starts off with, I have to do a virtual recording tonight. I have a raging UTI. I have to go to urgent care. I wrote, ha ha ha ha ha. Then you go, I peed the bed last night.
Starting point is 00:32:20 I don't wanna talk about it until the pod. And then I didn't respond to that. I think I was like, she's just trying to get out of the pod. Just like burying my soul here. I'm like something's going on and you know me I'm so deep in Grey's Anatomy right now that I'm like do I have a brain tumor and that's why I couldn't wake up to like go pee. That tumor on your spine that you've been telling every Uber driver about.
Starting point is 00:32:45 Don't bring up my tumor. Is that why when I asked you if Daphne's okay, you were like Daphne is fine, mama is not okay. Daphne's fine, yeah, I'm the one that's like having, I'm the one that keeps going to the bathroom in the bed this week. Like I'm the one that can't figure it out. It's anyway.
Starting point is 00:33:03 Wait, so how's your UTI? Did you go to urgent care? I had extra pills, so I just took those and hopefully it goes away. But that's what I always, this is like, okay, this is like, you should not do what I do. Then this is my problem. Then I don't finish the prescription
Starting point is 00:33:22 because my symptoms went away. I'm good, I took four pills, and then it comes back like a month later. That's like my own thing. Oh, okay, so you're like, are you peeing after sex? I always have extra pills. Are you peeing after sex? Well, that's the thing.
Starting point is 00:33:37 You have one job. Because here's the thing, well, okay, but you know what? It's a little bit more complicated than the girls talk about. What happens when you pee before sex and then you have sex and you're like, I gotta pee, but I'm like, I got no liquids in me. So you pee like a little bit of a trickle.
Starting point is 00:33:54 Is that doing the job? I don't know. So I was like trickling all weekend and then bam. It is true. You don't have sex having a pee and you can't half pee before. No, I can't have sex when I have to pee. Poop fine, pee no.
Starting point is 00:34:09 No. Wait, okay, wait. I made Craig so uncomfortable the other day. I literally couldn't wait to tell you about this conversation. This is such a TMI conversation, but such a convo with like girlfriends, I feel like. So remember the one time when you farted when British Dave went down on you I think about it
Starting point is 00:34:29 all the time I think about it all the time because like everyone feels that like at some point you're like oh my god if I farted right now it'd be like the worst possible time I feel like I never have to fart until the worst possible times. The second I'm in doggy, I'm like, I have to fart. It's so embarrassing. So I brought it up to Craig. I was like, do you ever feel like you have to fart when you are about to have sex? And he was just like, I don't think I've ever felt that ever in my life.
Starting point is 00:35:01 And I was, now when it happens, after we have sex, I have to tell him. I'm like, there was a moment where I felt like. Are you at that point in your relationship that, no, you'll never get there, where like, you'll fart to be cute and funny? Never, I'll never get there. See like, every now and then comedically, timing wise, I'll throw it in, but I have farted
Starting point is 00:35:27 because I wanted the guy to break up with me. Okay, I'm gonna say something controversial. Farting, I would say, is universally funny. Everyone can laugh at an untimely fart noise. It's never been on the top of my comedy list. I can appreciate it because I can get it, but I've never been in a situation where I'm like a great time to fart right now
Starting point is 00:35:52 would really bring the joke full circle. You know what would really bring this home? Do you know what this conversation needs? I can appreciate it. I hate farting. I actually would prefer farting in front of my husband than my friends. Like I really don't want to fart in front of my friends
Starting point is 00:36:11 if it smells. I feel so bad. Like I'm like, you can unfriend me. Like that was horribly fucked up of me. That's. Like I don't want it. Okay, but I don't think I'm in that category because I feel like if you're around me
Starting point is 00:36:23 and you have to fart, like you have no problem letting it out. You're like, my stomach hurts. Yes, but like I don't. You're like a little, you try and keep it a little bit quiet, but like, you're not like farting loud, but like, Nana's gonna hate this episode.
Starting point is 00:36:36 My thing is, my rule with farting with men is, if they fart, you then have like about 20 seconds where you can respond with a fart and it doesn't count. And that's feminism. It's equal opportunity. Like if he farts and he thinks it's so funny, I like to, if I have one that I've been holding, let it out so then if he gets upset, I go,
Starting point is 00:37:02 and that is called sexism and that is double standards. We're just making men pull over from the road because they can't drive and then farting on them. So we truly are from this podcast. We're like you know what you've lost a privilege. Speaking of dating drama I want your opinion because the internet is divided about I want your opinion because the internet is divided about Kayla, the girl who dated Travis Kelsey. She went on Angel Reese's pod. And Angel Reese said, tell me the craziest thing you've ever done.
Starting point is 00:37:36 And Kayla responded and said, a guy broke up with me or he left me for someone who was famous. So for Halloween, I dressed up as that famous person. So then immediately everyone's like, okay, we did one Google, it's Teyana Taylor. And then Teyana Taylor posted some long rant about it. So this is my question to you.
Starting point is 00:38:00 There's a couple sides of it. One, is it like, I don't get why that's crazy. Like I don't get the point. Like who won out of that, you dressing up as her? Like is it giving fan behavior? Like what are you stalking her? Like I don't know what that was. Are you trying to have a threesome with that?
Starting point is 00:38:20 I don't know. Two, is it accurate? Cause she's giving a crazy story. And it's like it is she's giving a crazy story. And it's like it is kind of a funny crazy story. She's given the tea. She showed up to the pot. And she's given the info.
Starting point is 00:38:31 I've been waiting for anyone to ask me this question. Yes, like let me be not relatable, but entertaining. Or three, Teyana jumping into it. It's like, what's going on? Who is driving the Uber right now? Who is in charge of the truck? What did Teyana say? Was it, wasn't it the guy,
Starting point is 00:38:57 is it the guy that she has children with? Like did she end up going on to have children with him? Yes, but she's not with him anymore, Iman Shumpert from the Knicks. Okay, if she had gone on to date him and then they broke up, I would expect a certain type of response. Her then going on and having children with this man
Starting point is 00:39:13 and now being broken up with him. First of all, I think she should've stayed silent through the whole thing. I don't think she needed to do a response at all. For sure. What is the girl's name that went on Angel Reese's podcast? Kayla. Kayla. Okay, as a listener, I think that's fucking hilarious.
Starting point is 00:39:30 Like- Yeah, it's great. Would I ever- I'm laughing, I'm not thinking about it. Would I ever do that? Absolutely not, but the fact that she did that, I think that's hilarious. And also, if I'm Tiana while they're dating, I'm being like, she's obsessed with me but also like that is funny.
Starting point is 00:39:48 Like I'm trying to think. You know what I think it was? Cause you know, look, I guess she was not in her right mind cause she was upset and she wanted to let him know. That's not the, also I'm a girl, okay? I've been surrounded by girls. That is not the craziest thing I've ever fucking heard. Is it unique?
Starting point is 00:40:09 Have I never heard that response before? Absolutely, but is it that crazy? I would argue it's a compliment. Yeah, I would be like, why is she being like- That's what I wasn't understanding. I don't think it was crazy. It's all these friends. It's giving, you telling him you have good taste and I like your outfits and I'm a dress officer. It's like, I'm a fan, I crazy. I was like, it's giving you telling him you have good taste
Starting point is 00:40:25 and I like your outfits and I'm gonna dress up as her. It's like, I'm a fan, I'm gonna stay a fan, have fun with him sis. Like I don't. That's what I was getting. That's why like when Teyana was mad, I was like, I think we're all getting mad at the wrong people.
Starting point is 00:40:37 I think she, that was, likes you. She should have, I feel like she should have just said nothing. I'm trying to think. If a guy was in a situationship, left her, starts dating me, and then she dresses up as a girl who doesn't brush her hair and wears jorts, I'd be like, that shit's funny.
Starting point is 00:40:55 Yeah, I think that's hilarious. I'm like, that's funny. So anyway, I didn't know how to feel from the situation because there were so many moving pieces. But let people tell stories on podcasts. No, people were getting so mad. See, that's why people get so censored then because it's like, okay, sorry, I was like being myself
Starting point is 00:41:15 and you hate it. And it's also like, if I'm not myself, you hate it. So it's, who cares? She didn't like, no one got hurt in her dressing up. No one got their feelings hurt in her dressing up. At the end of the day, did anyone get hurt? Arguably, I think the problem was, she was trying to hurt someone, but everyone was like, that alpha looks great.
Starting point is 00:41:36 You clearly like Teyana, and I don't know if he noticed the photo. No, I think it's fucking hilarious. Also, like, I'm for girls being crazy. He wronged you, you wanna do something crazy where no one gets hurt? Have at it. No one gets hurt or arrested, pop off.
Starting point is 00:41:54 I'm gonna say something about nagging. Okay. I saw a TikTok about this in between all my Menendez algorithms. Someone basically was like, you're lucky if your girl's nagging you, because it means she still cares. The second she stops nagging you means you're fucking done.
Starting point is 00:42:12 And she's not nagging you by the way, they're warnings. If she starts nagging you, like I remember once I told this guy I was dating early on, I said, look, you don't have a job right now. That's fine, we all lose our job. But in six months, if you still don't have a job right now But in six months if you still don't have a job Yeah, we here yeah, and he looked at me He thought I was kidding three months and I said how's the resume going you could say I'm Naggy bitch I'm just warning you cuz helping if I ask you thrice if I ask you thrice
Starting point is 00:42:43 You're not gonna hear from me again. And he did ice. Hannah, I love it. I love it. Don't make me ask thrice. Don't make me ask thrice. Cause I don't think you should, you wanna be in a relationship where you have to nag a guy.
Starting point is 00:43:01 But to the three guys listening who are straight, if your girl starts to nag you, you best listen up. Look, here's the other thing. If you are in a heterosexual relationship and you are the woman. We're sorry. It's just science that when you start dating the person, you have to make them a little bit better
Starting point is 00:43:21 because you're already so much better than them. So like it would actually be mean if you didn't make them a little better right because you're already so much better than them. So like it would actually be mean if you didn't make them a little better right from the jump. I do have to say the second I stopped caring, it's so sad. It's so sad. If you see Craig wearing flip-flops with jeans in the future, I've stopped caring
Starting point is 00:43:42 and you should check on that man. Well, I think he listened to you. Yeah, 100%. So he loves that you push him to be better. Let's all remember that when Summer House comes out this year. If you think I mean to Craig, it's because I care. If you're disappointed in your internet service,

I spent the entire day on Sunday at Central Park. Oh, you're not doing well. No. Okay. I'm worried. No, reinforcements need to go over.
Starting point is 00:45:48 Wait, like you were like, I need some- Wait, were you with Craig? I was like, I- Well, earlier in the week, I was like, Sunday, I really want to go to Central Park and walk around and do a good walk and maybe go to lunch. And he was like, oh my God, I've literally waited for three years for you to ask me to do anything, like a cute like that. And my brother was in town. And so me and Craig walked to the park.
Starting point is 00:46:16 We did like a big long walk. I got a hot dog. I got a stomach ache obviously immediately after. I got a stomach ache and a hot dog, two for one. I was like, I have to run home. It was so nice. Like I really, I've lived in New York for 10 years. I think I've, this is disgusting.
Starting point is 00:46:36 I think I've been to Central Park five times. Well, now you live close to it. I mean, not to be all like New York City kid, but I went to school in the Upper West Side and after school we'd go to Columbus Circle and we'd hang out and just like hang out at the park and like talk shit. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:46:55 Like picnic at the park. No, I felt so productive. It's really, I will say it was like really nice day. So it was like a little bit crowded, but I felt so healthy and I needed to like connect with earth I wore ballet flats so that I could like feel the ground. Okay people were freaking out over you showing up to the Nationals baseball stadium for a batting and throwing clinic in Kittenheels when
Starting point is 00:47:20 you were distinctly told whatever you do whatever you do please wear sneakers and I. And in my head I go, she wore sneakers on the plane, she has sneakers. It didn't say wear sneakers, it said don't wear any heels that could puncture the ground. I was wearing ballet flats, okay? I was wearing a little sling back ballet flat. They were perfect for the occasion. And I really needed to make that Victoria Beckham crop trench work, and it only worked with a ballet flat. I thought I had the perfect outfit for that. You did, the people loved it. Grace posted it on our grid.
Starting point is 00:48:01 I've never been so entertained by the giggler's comments. People, it was so funny, but it reminded me of people were like, when you realize you've never seen your best friend full out run. Which is funny, because I feel like when you're younger, all you do is run around with your friends. Like when you're drunk, I run. Yeah, it's just, we're running.
Starting point is 00:48:19 We have to run. And then when you're adults. Even in high school, you're running, because you're like, oh, I have Jim with her. Like, yeah, we're running. Yeah, you're running because you're like, oh, I have gym with her. Like, yeah, we're running. Yeah, you're running. But once you're in college, maybe even a little in college because you get drunk and you run around and do things,
Starting point is 00:48:34 but post college, you're not seeing your friends run. No, that means you're getting robbed if you're running. But my favorite part was the whole time I was trying to explain to them that you're a prodigy you just like refuse to correct lean in to your sport skills and She'll like she she just has very natural good hand. Eye coordination. Anyway, she'll hit like three balls and then she's like I'm done Yeah, they couldn't get me off the batting range. Couldn't get you off the bat. They were like, you have a show tonight.
Starting point is 00:49:06 And I was like, I was loving it. I was in my element, ball is life. At one point you said to the guy you were batting and there was maybe like 30 baseballs in the box that he was pulling out. You had already done like five to seven and you go, no problem, I'll finish the box. And I was like, oh what?
Starting point is 00:49:24 I was like, that's insane. You're like, I'll finish the balls in there. I was like, okay. There are these hilarious videos going around also on my TikTok algorithm. Can you tell this is what I did all weekend? Yeah. But it was, it's this guy making fun of parents
Starting point is 00:49:39 who are taking it too seriously. And they're like, throw the fucking ball Jerome no and I'm one thing I'm gonna say is that Lana Giggs but I'm not gonna be that parent and it was making me laugh so hard and does is like I think you're laughing hard cuz that's gonna be you I am NOT gonna I'm gonna be overly nice okay okay you know what I walk off and I said, did you have fun? Did you have fun making mom disappointed? Because you were such a good athlete and you played for so many years,
Starting point is 00:50:11 I actually do feel like you will be that kind of parent where you'll be like, as long as you had fun and you didn't get hurt, like because you know what it's like to be an athlete, where I feel like I'm different because I've never done sports like that, but like I am very competitive. So I fear.
Starting point is 00:50:28 So you won't have empathy for them. I fear that I'm gonna be the one on the sideline, move your fucking feet. Move your feet. Yeah, be like, you have one job. It's to pee after sex and to make contact with the ball. No, girls knew you learned that at a young age. So Nate, we had fun playing sports,
Starting point is 00:50:49 we had fun on the road, DC was amazing. We had so much fun on the road. I loved our outfits, this leg of the tour. I was very, very into them. I felt very like, stately. You very what? Like stately in my outfits. Yes, we're obsessed with like matching
Starting point is 00:51:07 what the stereotype of the state is in our head. Yeah, I was like, obviously I have to wear a collar. This is a fancy place. One other thing about dating. So everyone was sending me the sex lives of college girls. Have you watched that? I have. Do you watched that? I have. Do you watch that?
Starting point is 00:51:26 So the new season came out. Oh it did? Or the new trailer, the new trailer's out. And everyone's sending it to me. I'm like why are they sending me this? The whole trailer is about the girl saying she fucked the mascot. Hannah, did Mindy Kaling listen to Giggly Squad
Starting point is 00:51:44 and just like. Is Mindy a giggler or is everyone fucking mascots now because it wasn't cool back in the day when I did it. It certainly wasn't. Okay but meeting the Nationals mascot I like got the vibe that you were talking about especially in college it is like low-key like a famous person. So I have to, well first, no, they're literally famous. People go more nuts over Bucky than like the quarterback. They're like it's fucking Bucky. Also, I did some research and I'm pretty sure
Starting point is 00:52:15 both of the mascots were girls. Okay, I like was thinking about that because I felt like inside their suits, they were like short. And their energy was like a little too good. Yeah, they were too nice. Yeah, like these are girls. Yeah, so anyway, Sex Lives of College Girls, if you knew that I have a lot of experience in this,
Starting point is 00:52:37 I would have loved to help write or tag up the scene. They really, they should have called the professional. Who knew what she was talking about? It's kind of like limited to In Sex Life of College Girls. It's like, hello, we've done this before. Hello. We're here. We can hear you.
Starting point is 00:52:55 We're here to help. Question from the Gigglers. Are we wearing barrel jeans? Barrel leg jeans. Okay, that's an amazing question. Thank you for bringing it to the forefront. I was definitely a little, like when they first came out, I was like, this is a trend.
Starting point is 00:53:15 I don't think you need to like spend money on them. I don't think you're gonna be wearing them. Like they're not gonna be like your go-to jeans, but I actually don't hate them with a ballet flat. What's the benefit of the shape of a barrel jean besides the fact that it's a barrel jean? Like does it make your legs look longer? Like what's going on?
Starting point is 00:53:38 No, it definitely doesn't make you look longer. It definitely, if you're short and you have short legs, it's only gonna, I feel like, emphasize that. It's gonna, yeah, so besides kind of feeling like an Oompa Loompa, what is the benefit of a barrel jean? I don't think that there are any. Are booties back? Booties?
Starting point is 00:54:00 Like booty boots. Like boots that go up to your ankle. I don't think they are. No, not with anything that you can see them. I have a couple booties, but I wear them with jeans and you're not seeing that they're booties. Yes, yes. But with a mini skirt or a dress, no, no, no, no.
Starting point is 00:54:22 No, what about if you're wearing a capri? Yeah. And you want people to see the your ankle? Yeah. Because that's when you're capri. But you don't want to wear a ballet flat? You have to wear... What do you wear? You have to wear like a pump. You have to wear like a heel. Oh god. I'm stressed out. Or like, I guess like a... No, you have to wear like a flat or you have to wear a heel. You're not wearing like a booty with a capri that's. Can you wear a dad sneaker with a capri? Yeah, you can wear a sneaker with like a flared capri like jean.
Starting point is 00:54:56 But that's again, that's also if you're short and you have short legs, that is also only gonna emphasize that. Okay, just come for me. I feel like flared jeans are back. You're tall though, you're tall. So like you. My entire body is my torso.
Starting point is 00:55:14 That's why you need to wear like a higher, I know you love low rise because you're Gen Z, but your body type actually, if you wanna go by it, if you wore like a higher waist pant, it wouldn't feel as like disproportionate as you feel it is. I'm kind of loving these like good American high-waisted flair jeans.
Starting point is 00:55:37 Our flair jeans back. Yeah, you can wear a flair. Yeah, for sure. A boot cut, a flair. Okay, I think I'm gonna wear one tonight. Okay, whoa. That was a good, I loved that little rapid fire. No, well, look, we need to know what's going on with fashion
Starting point is 00:55:49 and you keep us honest, you know? Thank you, I really try. And it's quick and easy and I'm just asking the questions we all need to know the answer to. No, that was, I actually just got my first pair of barrel jeans. I haven't even tried them on yet. We're doing Today Show, somehow we got invited back.
Starting point is 00:56:04 What are you gonna wear? I'm gonna wear this little like butter yellow blazer dress I think, even though like, I could wear something a little more folly, but like I haven't worn it and I like it and I think I'll do an ivory boot with it. Okay, fun. I don't know if I'm obsessed with what I have,
Starting point is 00:56:21 but we'll see. You know what I realized recently? I need to like fall back in love with putting outfits together because I feel like for the past two years of my life, I've been having to get outfits because I need an outfit to do things where a couple years ago, the fun of getting an outfit was because, oh my God, I'm going to this new club
Starting point is 00:56:43 Saturday night and out to dinner, I need to pick out a fun outfit. And I need to get back to like, it's become work. And like, I need to get back to like, I love picking out outfits. And being on tour, I was like picking out outfits for this past weekend and I was like, I miss this shit. You know? But like, also this is, you loved it for a reason,
Starting point is 00:57:07 it's cause you're good at it and then it's been spiraling. I also think over the last two years, like you have so many eyes on you. Yeah. So you not only it's work, but you're also getting judged for the work and then you actually forget the whole reason you like it, which is to be creative and put your taste on things.
Starting point is 00:57:22 No, for like the past, I would say like four to five months. I think I've been depressed and anxious for a while, but anywho, for the past four to five months, I've been like, oh, I don't know what's in style. I don't know how to put an outfit together. Like, did I lose my touch? Well, someone needs to guide the gigglers. Yeah, I had a moment where I was like,
Starting point is 00:57:43 have I lost my touch? Do I not, like, no. And it's like, no, I haven't been appreciating it the way. You stopped caring for a second. Yeah, the way I appreciated it. And I love clothes. Oh my God, you guys. I can feel my personality coming back.
Starting point is 00:58:00 Paige is feeling better. Okay, cause we all were worried. No, we were worried. Beta blockers are have been helping me fucking thrive on Tor I can't say enough good things But I do have to say obviously we do not want the gigglers snorting beta blockers every day What else do you think has helped you? That was an attack That was so No, you said you went walking that was oh my god
Starting point is 00:58:28 I just felt like you were my therapist like okay Paige but what other coping mechanisms that are healthy have you done I don't love promoting drug addiction no I've been trying to like here's the thing I think that's really hard. You go, I have so much beta block in me right now. I could bash my head through a wall. Here's the thing I think that's another added to the fucking list on how hard it is to be a woman. You go through phases where you're like, I'm so healthy and you're in a routine and you are working out.
Starting point is 00:59:07 You're like, I worked out two times this week, that's good. I worked out three times this week, sometimes four. Like you can get into all these random routines. It's when you go cold turkey and you do nothing. And then now I feel like I'm at the age where it's not even about like, yeah, obviously I wanna look hot. Like I always want to fucking look good and feel good in my clothes.
Starting point is 00:59:30 But now I'm like, if I don't move, my brain is going right down in the dumps. So that's like a weird mind fuck. But it has made it I think a little bit easier for every single day for me to be like, okay, if I at least stretch my fucking body today and walk to my errands rather than take an Uber, that's better than nothing. So I have been trying to go outside, walk in the sunlight for at least,
Starting point is 01:00:03 even if it's 10 10 minutes to like whatever. So that's like one thing. Well people also will be like, you're working so hard, like take a break. And first of all, I work so hard because when I'm working, I'm actually my happiest. It's when I'm not working that the demons will start trying to speak to me and I'm like, text me.
Starting point is 01:00:21 Yeah. And then, but then they tell you, okay, you have to take a break. You've been working so hard, which is so valid, but it's when everything stops that like, it sucks. But you want to relax, but then you're fighting the like, should I be relaxing?
Starting point is 01:00:35 Should I not be relaxing? Anyway, it's really hard to exist on this planet. And like, let's, I mean, I don't even know how people do it like, cause we don't even have children yet, but what is the fucking guilt when you sit on the couch and you're like, okay, I'm gonna relax, and then you're like, in your head, you're like, but if I wasn't relaxing, I could be getting done
Starting point is 01:00:55 like this, this, and this. That's not even on my to-do list, but it would alleviate other things. I could be doing extra stuff. like that guilt is debilitating as well. It's funny you brought up kids because I think what we're talking about is also the reason people do have kids, because it was Sunday, I went to yoga, I felt amazing, I was like feeling myself, I was like calling my mom, I'm like I'm the the epitome of health and wellness. And then like, I settle down.
Starting point is 01:01:28 And then like four hours into the day, I'm like, I'm spiraling. I'm spiraling, I'm spiraling. And then I realized like, when you're of our age sometimes, it's like, I can have a kid because I can worry about something else besides the repetitive boring thoughts in my own brain about myself.
Starting point is 01:01:48 Hannah, no one's more sick of me than me. Than me. Like I am done with me. Not to go full circle, not to go full circle, but that's why Kim, what she noticed about us is so nice because it's like I don't wanna fucking be with someone all the time who's just like me. In certain ways, yes, because it makes us compatible, but I want someone who brings different thoughts
Starting point is 01:02:10 and silliness to the table. Right, right. So long story short, I think that's why people have kids and people have friends, and people say having community is the most important thing. And this is our mental health explosion at the end of the pod, but the problem with community is community also causes drama in your life sometimes
Starting point is 01:02:30 and relationships can cause the most pain. So then it's like, okay, it's this multi-level marketing scheme, right? And going outside cures your depression, but what happened outside is what caused the depression. What the fuck are we supposed to do? It's a spiral. That's why you have to get a cat.
Starting point is 01:02:46 They're not involved in the outside world. No. And it's still community. Your only safety, your best friend. No, you texted me the cutest photo this morning of Daphne and you have your heart, you have your purpose and you have the love of your life and she feels connected to you because you both pee in the bed no truly we're sisters we're soul sisters I'm like Daphne I get it I'm I must just be so anxious
Starting point is 01:03:20 well I hope you don't pee again tonight I don't think I will because I don't want it to be a thing even though be so funny if that became a thing And then you have to go to like a I have to go to like a specialist. They have to like watch me sleep You have to sleep on like an Italian grandma's couch that has plastic on it to do like sleep studies I'm dying to do any type of sleep study That's our next vlog, just us sleeping. No, I would love, Hannah, please. We have to. The way I would be so ready for a sleep study,
Starting point is 01:03:54 I'd be like, this is where I perform my greatest. Beyond. I just want them to tell me certain things that they've noticed. Yeah, yeah. Anyhow. Anyway, I feel like we started the pod very positive and then we did spiral at the end.
Starting point is 01:04:08 Enjoy your week trying to exist. No, I hope if you're having a down time, you feel less alone and keep grinding, keep hustling in these streets. Yep. Keep giggling. And we'll see you next week. And if you're in Minneapolis, Madison, or Milwaukee,
Starting point is 01:04:28 we're coming your way. Tickets are almost sold out. Grab them. We added a couple shows. And we love you. Thanks for giggling. Bye. Bye.
Starting point is 01:04:37 Bye.
