Starting point is 00:00:02 What's up gigglers? Gary, fix the Wi-Fi. Manifest that shit. We can't be managed. Got away from me? What's up, my greasy gigglers? It's Friday. Friday.
Starting point is 00:00:19 Everyone's in the Friday. You know, I got dressed this morning, and I was like, oh my God, it's so cute. Like preppy. She's giving beach house. She's giving second home. And then I got on the Zoom and I'm like, I'm just dressed like Hannah. When you do it, it's chic. I'm obsessed with it.
Starting point is 00:00:38 like you're in boarding school and just gave your first hand job and you like don't know what to do and you don't know if it went well or not and like it gets sticky and like it kind of smells no one warns you no one tells you that it does in fact smell that's something you learn on your own his dick the come I would say oh I try not to get that close I think the first time I was like oh guys gross I would get into it but I'm pretty sure I have a 15 minute bit about um how back in the day we used to like swallow and stuff on my upcoming special so anyway we're going to have to save that anyway um wait i wanted to bring up your special because i wanted to make it about me for a minute please please please please how you know that you have a true real friendship with someone no seriously
Starting point is 00:01:30 listen to this like it's so easy to be happy when your friend is happy like oh my god like we're going out tonight or like something whatever but when your friend is stressed now mind you when you were filming the special i was getting a massage but i knew i knew how stressed you were for the trailer to come out that like when it did get posted i felt relief i was like you and now she doesn't have to worry about that you know well you also sent me the cutest sweetest funniest text she goes i realized never texted you for your trailer and I had a paris social relationship instead. Congrats, which was basically, she commented on every photo I posted. She reposted everything.
Starting point is 00:02:19 She was on a full PR campaign for me yesterday and then was like, hey, sorry, I didn't text you directly. Are you mad? Well, I was like, I'm no better than someone on Reddit. Like, I literally made up that I have a friendship with this woman. Every now then when you do something like really big, I turn into a fan and then I'm like, if I text her, she really pissy right now. Is she doing it right now?
Starting point is 00:02:41 Like is she on set now? We had an airport moment where I was like, I'm going to show you this trailer and I just want to see your thoughts. And that was like the test. Like you didn't realize it. But if you didn't have a decent reaction to it, and I didn't need you like laughing hysterically, I just know when you like something. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:03:00 And you had a great reaction. And I was like, I don't go, fuck. Page liked it. We're good. And that's how you have to be with creativity. Like if the people you care about love it as much as you do, You go for it. And also, we're just talking about the trailer right now, but I'm just a real perfectionist.
Starting point is 00:03:15 You really are. It's actually exhausting. You think my hair cycling is exhausting? Listening to you, like, make art is so exhausting. Well, people don't talk about it. I'm a Virgo moon. People never talk about it. They're brought up in any of these, you know, thought things that people post.
Starting point is 00:03:32 It's not brought up because no one, I feel like I have a front row seat to you as a businesswoman. It's not, it's not relaxing. There's nobody I know other than Hannah that will start something and then halfway through be like, this is horrible. I can't believe you guys even let me get this far. I'm changing the whole thing. When I fail, I feel fast. And I'm, I love to move.
Starting point is 00:03:58 I love change. I will pivot. I'm a pivoter. But also, by the way, just so you guys get a glimpse behind the curtain. So Grace sends us all these clips from what happened on the pod. And Paige literally is like love cute. Can you actually like change the background of that or like can you not use my face in that one? Well sometimes Grace picks the most diabolical screenshots of me and I'm like, Grace, act like you've met me before.
Starting point is 00:04:20 Grace thinks you're beautiful in every angle. That's why. And I will come in and be like Grace at 0.4 seconds there's like two and I'm like we can't post this. This is not good enough. And then I'll be like at 0.75 seconds you have to cut that faster. and then like do actually like a CGI moment over my head when I say this joke. Paige doesn't respond. Grace and I are in like eight hours of editing.
Starting point is 00:04:43 I'm like Hannah's skin color is giving orange. So maybe we change the lighting. But everything else is how you guys are crushing. Can you make the Hannah look aesthetically pleasing for like a second? But that's the thing. Like when I'm with an outfit, I'm like, I'm stressed about editing clips. I don't have time. My favorite thing is like when we talk about merch and you say,
Starting point is 00:05:01 Paige, what do you think? I'm like, sorry, it's my time. Um, also actually we don't know where Grace is. She's supposed to be on this virtual. We don't know where she is. And Paige said, tell Grace to join at her own leisure. And I just want to say, shout out to you for like thinking of words. I talk for a living, but I actually don't do words.
Starting point is 00:05:22 You talk for a living. You love a word. Well, you know what? Not like a full sentence. A word. I, it's true. I could make one word my whole personality. I love a word.
Starting point is 00:05:34 that has an alternative, rich person way to say said word. Like foyer. Yes, like foyer. Like I love someone that would be like, oh, my God, leisure. But then there's like a rich woman that says leisure. Like, at your old leisure. Like, I like, I feel like I have so many words. Like, okay, actually, this is so crazy.
Starting point is 00:05:59 You know, like the word mature. Sometimes, one time I heard this woman pronounce it, mature and I I literally remember where I was, how old I was, what I was doing when I heard that because I was like, oh my God, she's not like other girls. Well, not to talk about my husband because that's annoying, but because he grew up in Europe, he says some funky-ass words and at first I'm like, you are so dumb, you said that word wrong and then he's like Google it and I'm like, oh, it's the European way.
Starting point is 00:06:26 You're actually better than me. Sorry. Sorry. I actually do think that sometimes I can have actually sorry whenever I have a thought period whenever I'm gonna forget
Starting point is 00:06:41 brain explodes I saw this girl she made this TikTok and she was talking about how women there's like a bunch of people that will do like she's talking about women that will do full studies on linguistics and the separation between men and women
Starting point is 00:06:59 and things they say and she was talking about how women say like a lot I mean, I've never, but some other women. But like how women are like, oh my God, all she doesn't say like, and like that we have a lot of filler words. And some girl commented the video and was like, I'm actually learning about this for like my thesis in linguistics or whatever. And she said from like all the studies people have done,
Starting point is 00:07:24 women don't get to talk a lot. So we actually put filler words in because if there is a silence, typically the other person will immediately start talking. So we almost have to add in filler words to keep our place to let the other person know we are not done speaking. And I was like, Oh my God, we're trying to take up space. We're just trying to take up space. Why am I like emotional?
Starting point is 00:07:52 Why am I like getting like emotional like right now? And the girl that made the like initial video was like I would never hate on another woman for using filler words or like. or having like a valley accent because it is most common women. And so why would I hate on another woman for being a woman? I also love a woman who speaks slow like this. I'm like, take, waste a man's time. Waste a man's time. And actually never get to the thought.
Starting point is 00:08:20 Never fully get to the thought. Wow, now I think of everything differently. What were we saying though before? We literally just started the pod and we're already, we never had a direction. I actually think. I mean, we're talking about the trailer. If you approve, a lot of the gigglers approve, but they have to wait for you to co-sign before they jump on board.
Starting point is 00:08:38 Well, it's funny because I had a lot of gigglers in my DMs, seeing if they could figure out what exact second that I said, wow, your hair looks so good like that. But you know what happened? You saw the wide trailer that's on YouTube. This was cut down so you actually couldn't see the full hair. So anyway. Also, Lenore is visiting right now.
Starting point is 00:09:00 now because so the place is spotless you know like you clean before like a hookup comes over that's nothing like the way I clean before my mother comes over I do like to leave her some things because she likes to have a hobby and she really likes to do the dishes that's like her thing so I let her have fun but like Des and I were cleaning like we've never cleaned before we were so scared wait really yeah we woke up early Oh, that's serious. We woke up early and I was like, come on, we got to go. And we were like, I mean, this is what normal people do, like, once a week.
Starting point is 00:09:37 Do you know that I don't think I've ever seen you clean? Like, I don't think I've seen. Because I'm a feminist. Because I'm a feminist. Wait, now that I think about it, I don't think I've ever seen you take like a spray bottle and spray something. And you just say cleaning takes initiative. And when you grow up in an Italian household where like the women take. over. I'm never used to taking that initiative. You have to just, even if you're at someone's
Starting point is 00:10:05 house and I realize, like, you just have to start cleaning and everyone, like, respects it. But I see it as, like, invasive. I'm like, I'm not going to touch your table. Like, I wouldn't walk into someone's home and open up their refrigerator. So why would I open up their cleaning supply closet? 100%. I do think, too, there's something about dinner. I always hated how, like, when we were done eating, all the women got up and took everyone's plates. And you call me lazy, but I was like, no, the men can take my plate. Why are the women doing this? They already cooked it all.
Starting point is 00:10:39 What happens at your family holidays now? Who's cleaning? Okay, well, my nana and papa are perfect and adorable. My nana cooks and she takes the plates, but then Papa loves cleaning. Like, Papa handles all the dishes, and that's how my mom and dad are too. I just never like when all the men are sitting down and the women are at work. I'm like, what is this? Did you have chores as a child?
Starting point is 00:11:02 Well, this is also, this is kind of the problem is that I had a full-time job. I was just playing tennis. So it actually inhibited my chores where like. And there we go. Des doesn't let me. And that's the problem. And we've just figured it out. Well, yeah, because I'm not good at it.
Starting point is 00:11:21 So I don't want to embarrass myself in front of other people by being like, that's how you put the dishes in the dishwasher. I actually tried to do the dishes. And Des was like never again. Like this is chaos. He's like, I'm not, that's not where you put everything. How, how bad can you mess up loading a dishwasher? I guess some people like it more organized where I'm like, if there's an opening, it's like Tetris, you just figure it out.
Starting point is 00:11:44 Well, cups are on the top, plates are on the bottom. Yes. However, sometimes you don't have a cupboard plate. You have like a weird shape bowl and I try to just shove it. But look, we all have our strengths. We all have our quirks. We all have our things. But I
Starting point is 00:12:01 The truth is After school I go to tennis practice I get home at 8 p.m. I have to do my homework And I think my parents were like The girl has enough going on She can't do it she's tired I played paddle this morning How is that? Well I want everyone to know it's different than pickleball
Starting point is 00:12:20 I'm not like on the dark side You don't have to like call the police I'm not playing pickleball Hannah actually texted me and said can we push the pod one hour Because I'm playing paddle and I And you know me, I don't know sports or anything, but I've known I've heard her talk about it before. And I said, wait, just checking in because one time you did say, don't ever let me play paddle or I will get arrested. And she takes it back and goes, nope, that was pickleball. And I said, great.
Starting point is 00:12:43 Yes, yes. Also, sorry, I like can't take you seriously because you dress like me right now and I've lost respect for you. I'm like, what is you talking about? Like you. Wait, one day we should do a pod. I'll be you and you be me. And we just talk the whole time, like, what we think the other would say. I would just immediately start crying about my dead grandpa.
Starting point is 00:13:11 No, I actually had a dream about him the other week, and it's like, why are you upcoming my dreams? I had a dream the other week, and my mom told me, like, gossip in the dream, like, he was trying. And I had, and I woke up, and I went to my Instagram, because I was like, is this how I get messages now? Like my mom sends them to me in a dream. And I woke up and I had to like check my Instagram for something to see if it was like true and real, but it wasn't. But I sat in it for a little because I was like. It can be witchen. Yeah, because I was like, no, I had a dream that my mom came and whispered something in my ear.
Starting point is 00:13:50 And so and right when I woke up, I was like, my mom just told me something. And that's really scary. But anyway, I do. I do feel like I want to play sports. I want to be athletic. I want to sweat. I'm not done with my battle stories. But I woke up to play at 9 a.m.
Starting point is 00:14:10 Yeah. Which is early for me. And then it was so hot and I was so tired. After it, I was like, I need to cancel all my plans. Like, hold on, wait. Just like to take it back for a minute. What is the difference between paddle and pickleball? So paddle's European, which makes it cool.
Starting point is 00:14:25 Okay. Like people in Spain and then South, America play it, it's cultured, it's, it's way more advanced than pickleball. Got it. Pickle ball is like, is with a freaking, for kids. What is it? What is, it's with a wiffle ball. Which is so funny.
Starting point is 00:14:41 Imagine someone being like, whiffle ball is now a sport. And like all these people are just like, did you remember wiffle ball as a kid? Yeah, I thought it was stupid. Yeah, it was for the unathletic baseball players. Yeah. So anyway, but look, if you're playing pickle, I totally support you. It's just as a tennis player, we get like hate. even in the community and like I could only handle so much within the industry and we can't have to
Starting point is 00:15:02 that within the industry I love getting involved how many industries can we get in trouble with my favorite is gossiping to page about sports drama and stand-up comedy drama because like you have no I was going to say gun in the fight that's not they say I have no skin in the game no skin in the game thank you you should hear me when I tell other people tennis gossip because I'm like and that's what I heard from my friend and they're like do you know any of these people I'm like like no and that's what makes it so good like we'll be we in tour we were like running out things to talk about and I would like see something on my Instagram of people you definitely didn't know and I go these people are getting divorced you want to know why and then to make her interested you have to
Starting point is 00:15:44 start from the beginning like I'm like she was born in a small town and you were locked in oh god yeah you're locked in but anyway how are you I'm good how are you I um oh crashed a bachelor's at i was going to i was going to say girls girl of the week first ever girl's goal of the week wait how did it end up on tomorrow like what is going on wait the first ever girl's girl of the week is hilarious you are i'm so proud of you you want it thank you so much i wasn't even campaigning i'm a stickler with it you don't just get girls girl of the week well because Because Daphne launched bridal support. So like if you're going out of Bachelorette.
Starting point is 00:16:29 Rital support is so funny. Yeah. Bridal help. Email bridal support at daffney the label.com. So you can like bulk order monogram things. It's just like easier for if you're the maid of honor or whatever. So we get a lot of emails. And let me tell you something.
Starting point is 00:16:44 The gigglers are animated. Like they're giving you the plot. They're giving you the full story. They're giving you why they've chosen cloud over white stripe because it's just like not aesthetically pleasing. and the background, you know, like they, they tell you. I also feel like because they also think you might be judging them. They're like, hey, I know that yellow seems like a weird choice.
Starting point is 00:17:05 I swear it goes with the like, sunflower aesthetic. And they're like, let me send you my Pinterest because I feel like I can break it down more for you. No, so I do think sometimes they're like, well, what if she's reading this email, which sometimes I am. So that's how we found this girl. We had a maid of honor email in and say like she was planning. a bachelor's and it was going to be in New York City. So I was like, oh, this is a perfect bachelorette to crash because I'm right here. Come to find out.
Starting point is 00:17:34 So we're like talking to the maid of honor. We're like, what if like Paige surprise the bride? The maid of honor adds another girl to the email and she goes, actually, she knows more about the logistics. This girl emails and goes, okay, so that was actually the bride and she's so type A. that she was pretending to be me and asking for the order. And now she's looped me in and sorry about that. Iconic.
Starting point is 00:18:05 I con so from that moment I was like iconic. Like I love a type A girl that's like actually I'll just do it myself. Wait, pretending to be your own assistant is like not talked about enough and needs to be done as women in STEM to be like, hey, Hannah's waiting for the follow up. I actually have talked to a couple of people who have made second emails pretended to be their own assistant and like always made themselves a man. Love. Because like people respond better. Love. So anyway.
Starting point is 00:18:33 So we're like let's surprise both of them because now the surprise is like totally ruined. So we email back and we're like, sorry like page of schedule. Like it's just not going to allow it. But we would love to make you a reservation for Friday night or for Thursday night when you guys arrive. for your like welcome drinks basically. Like we'll make the reservation. We'll set the time on us. So Daphne also will plan your bachelorette.
Starting point is 00:19:02 So Daphne literally will plan your bachelor's. So we had the bride and the maid of honor have no idea. So I had a couple people from Daphne already there and I'm in the basement. It's giving punked. Literally. And like, Jack Shepherd is going to come out and be the waiter. You're just in a basement with a headset and you're like, The eagle has landed.
Starting point is 00:19:24 So they get there. My Daphne employees give them like a bunch of matching shirts and matching sets and everything that they wanted. And then they went and sat down and were like, okay, like have so much fun. Like, sorry Paige couldn't come, whatever. Then like two minutes later I brought over like champagne to the table. Oh. It was so fun and just like a. like easy quirky fun cute thing like it was a great like kickoff of her bachelorette weekend like
Starting point is 00:19:57 i just felt like it was such a adorable moment i also imagine you doing things like without me and i'm like how'd normally normally i'm like how'd she get out of the house if we were doing it i would have jumped and you'd been rolling your eyes in the backer but like you surprising someone on your own i'm like that's but she's so like coofe you actually you're like but she's ever spoken to I'm like she's never really exclaimed before but you I saw the video you come to your little kitten heels and you're just like hey well you want to know it's so funny I would scare this shit out of them I'd be like during the whole thing I didn't know what to do with my hands I know that's why I know I was like she's so cute I kept like grabbing them because I was like hey I'm just like a small small girl no page is so shy you guys are saying she show she's so shy so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so so. So then when you do difficult things like difficult things like that. I'm always like, oh my God, look at her navigating the world and her kitten heel.
Starting point is 00:20:54 But also like surprising someone is, it's tough because you're like, what if they don't respond the way you want it? And then once you're there, I'm like, what do we talk about? Yeah. So how are you? No, I was very, I was nervous to surprise them. But I was nervous that to surprise them because I thought they like knew. And I was like, I didn't want them to be like, oh, yeah, obviously like here she is.
Starting point is 00:21:16 Hey, girl. Hey, thanks for. Got us. badgerette so I got like a little nervous but they were so sweet and it sucks that they have like a horrible weather weekend but well at least in the city doing like fun indoor things they sent me like the power point for the whole wedding weekend so I knew like what the vibe was for all the outfits and like there's nothing I love more than a power point that a girl makes that has nothing to do with her job and like because they're so helpful and resourceful like who the girl that made this powerpoint like
Starting point is 00:21:48 she was like think skirts shorts shorts pants I'm like so close like totally like she gave a vibe of like each night of what she should you guys should wear and I'm like so everything is acceptable and a go that reminds me of us and one of our important zooms which is just that should be a show in itself because Paige and I were like just listening to people talk
Starting point is 00:22:12 but I felt like we should say anything and they were like are you ready we have a presentation and I just go we love PowerPoints and they're like okay and we're sitting there and at the end they go um page you have any questions and she goes I'm just happy there wasn't a quiz at the end of that I thought there was going to be a quiz and then we got off the call because someone had to crack a joke because I literally almost interrupted and was like what in the eighth grade science class because I've almost fallen asleep seven times the whole point of a PowerPoint is you get to press it and surprise people with a funny photo.
Starting point is 00:22:53 I texted Hannah while we were doing it because I had literally in the moment come up with the most genius thing I've ever come up with. I could not stop yawning. So all I kept doing was rubbing my nose because you couldn't see that I was yawning. I was like, I'm a genius. Every on then I screenshot page in these zooms. And by the way, it's not with like three people.
Starting point is 00:23:15 There's like 20 people. And but I'm watching her. Believe me. I'm keeping eye. You know, I always wondered. I watch me the whole time. She can't help. Oh, we'll wait for what I'm going to say about you.
Starting point is 00:23:31 Okay, she goes, come from me. No, but like I screen shot and send it to the group chat just so great to knows how you're representing us in a public. Well, sometimes she pulls out her skincare, which like at that point, I'm just like, that's woman is stem. She's multi-tasting. That I know. Yeah, but sometimes like, like, I think like I pretend smile in this life way more. than you, which, like, I'm jealous of. I wish I could have your confidence.
Starting point is 00:23:56 I'm fake smiling 24-7. I'm like, Paige is just sitting there like, well, you've made yourself a clown for the people. I didn't tell you to do that. So, like, people expect, people interact with you and they're always laughing. So they expect you to also be in a jovial mood.
Starting point is 00:24:14 It's so hard being a light in this dark world. Yeah, and I've given, I'm, I'm this close to a panic attacks. Don't push me. And so they know. What was that laugh? I just like, I don't know. So what do you have to say about me?
Starting point is 00:24:28 Okay. Miss performative. Hannah's in the Zoom doing performative chin grabs. Like she's con, like she's contemplating a goddamn thing. She also. I kept switching my chin. I go, what are you, Colonel mustard in the library with a revolver? Like you're trying.
Starting point is 00:24:52 It's like, I figure out who. I think everyone's watching me. I like think people are watching me and I have to show them that they're doing well. Yeah. Wait, also, do you know what I'm doing? I'm hiding my double chin. Okay, the other thing that I think you do that literally could make me burst out laughing in any moment that I actually have to look away sometimes is you nod.
Starting point is 00:25:14 And it sounds, it sounds innocent enough. But she does it in a like, hey, that's a really good point. Never thought of that. And I'm like, they didn't even say anything. Okay, I'm an active listener. I'm, look, I'm an empath. And when someone's speaking and no one's reacting, see, I know, you know how you feel for inanimate objects. That's how I feel for real people.
Starting point is 00:25:34 And no, like, when they're talking and no one's reacting, I'm like, come on, someone has to give them a little positivity. So I'm, but you know, that's why I don't like social situations, because by the end, I should win an Oscar. Well, I have a team meeting every two weeks. And last week I said, guys, what are we doing here? This is an off-camera zoom. Get out of my face. Were you there for our last off-camera zoom? Yeah, I'm the one that started it.
Starting point is 00:26:04 And guess who didn't finish it? Who? You? Yeah, I showed up and didn't go off-camera. Oh, yeah, yeah. I was the first one on with one other girl, and I said, hey, you're either with me or you're against me. Turn your camera off.
Starting point is 00:26:18 goes, I'm with you. Absolutely. Everybody else joins. They go, oh, it's a no camera zoom. I go, excellent. And I show up two minutes late. Hannah shows up. Two minutes late, didn't have to do the intros.
Starting point is 00:26:27 It goes, I'm just going to be camera on. I said she's always a home. Well, I came out on camera and I just was like, wait, I love this attention. And then everyone was talking. I was nodding for them. Because the truth is, if I'm off camera, I can't trust myself. If I'm off camera, I'm playing tennis. Like, if I'm off camera, I'm petting my cat.
Starting point is 00:26:45 I'm not listening to anyone. But if I'm on camera, I have to look. at least like I care and then you care more wait I love how we just did 20 minutes about zoom calls but I feel like it's relatable no that but that's like really pertinent to my everyday life so yeah like we use legal jargon in everyday life yeah so I love a little zoom joke in the beginning and then I could calm down once I get the laugh yeah my quiz joke was pretty good on that that was really fucking funny I always laugh a little too hard and everyone's like okay yeah you guys know each other okay so I've been having a full woman in STEM moment lately because
Starting point is 00:27:18 I got some new plants, you know, planting, watering, sunlight, fertilizer, all of that. It's giving science experiment, but in the actual best way.

Starting point is 00:28:19 com slash giggly. Your plant parent era starts now. So summer's upon us, which is crazy, but I was like looking at bathing suits. And I love cheap bathing suits. Yeah. I don't know, because I'm not like doing a photo shoot in them. Like I'm just trying to be in the pool or the beach. You're playing games.
Starting point is 00:28:39 I'm playing games. Yes. Yes. Or I'm sprinting. I'm swimming. I'm racing. I'm doing I'm a mermaid. You're doing activities.
Starting point is 00:28:47 So it's impossible to lay out with you. No. Yeah, you're not. You have to be actively engaged. The only time you can really lay out is if we're discussing something that we've discussed eight million times, but there's one new fact. And we're beating that fact, beating that fact with a dead horse. Then you can lay and tan because.
Starting point is 00:29:14 because you're actively doing something. But if it's like the same old shit, you're like, should I like hit a tennis ball and we'll talk about this? Well, the good thing about our friendship is it's eight years of drama. We can pull from so much. The archivals are. The archive is fucking good. And we rotate.
Starting point is 00:29:33 But I got like some TikTok advertisement for a bikini that looked beautiful. I clicked it $195 for not the full bikini for the bottoms. What? Yeah. I mean, it's one of these like nice ones, but like, what is, it's underwear. What is in this bikini that's $195 and it's separate? So that's a $400 bikini. Make it make, as, okay, as a designer, as a fashion mogul, make it make sense to me. How do they get to those numbers? It's hard to justify because it's such a small piece of clothing. And what is it made out of that makes, like, isn't it just like? I would assume. I would assume it's probably mostly spandex. Is that like really pricey? No. But like I don't know what swim material. I don't know how hard it is to make swim because I don't even know what that's like made of.
Starting point is 00:30:30 I don't know. I think it's like a real rip. It's a real rip. What were you shopping on? Do you remember what website? Or like do you remember like? It was like a brand. It was like a swim brand or it was like a clothing brand that had swim.
Starting point is 00:30:42 But it was like, it was nice. Like it had like $200 dresses. No, bathing suits are tough. But here's the thing that is hard to justify spending so much on bathing suits is because a lot of the time, unless it's like a very good quality bathing suit, I would say a lot of the time after two summers, it's kind of like dingy and gross and you have to get a new one anyway. Yeah, it goes through it.
Starting point is 00:31:10 Yeah, you go through them faster than other art. articles of clothing. Do you know what makes me mad? It's because it feels like they're pulling something over our eyes where that I'm like, what the fuck am I supposed to do with one weird colored bottom? You hate getting duped. Put it in a set. Put it.
Starting point is 00:31:27 It's like being like, hey, this earring is $200. This one earring. Like, obviously I need to buy the other earring. Wait, one time I ordered earrings and it was, what was the brand? It was like a brand that was. they had a store in the West Village, I think. It was like super big at the time. Something like, it was like a woman's name.
Starting point is 00:31:48 Something like Tasha or like, I forget, whatever. And I'm like, and everyone's getting these like little mini, dainty earrings. And I'm like, I have to. So I go online and I like see the earrings that I want. And I'm like, great, I'm going to get this. It was like, one 95. I was like, that's insane. But like, whatever.
Starting point is 00:32:03 I get it. It comes in the mail. It's just one. And I'm like, is this a fucking joke to you? I'm like, clearly someone like messed up like the other earring. And you like get on customer service and they're like, no, we sell them individual. Like they thought I was stupid. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:32:20 Yeah. And I didn't realize it was like because every girl was doing like multiple piercings. So they just send it like one. But I'm like it's a it's a pair. I have two ears. And meanwhile men have three and one shampoo. But we're paying for for one bikini bottom. How are we going to take over the patriarchy when like we're out?
Starting point is 00:32:42 a month's rent for half a bikini. You know, it's something that would send me into a coma now that I would have, like, died for in high school as men in earrings. I never went that gay. Someone say I've gone gay. No, you have. You have. And they were good friends.
Starting point is 00:33:04 This is my question. Was it a little mini hoop? Was it a dangle, which is a genzy, or just a stud? Stead. Yeah. Okay. There was a time where guys with one stud, he was not. You're like, that's a bad boy.
Starting point is 00:33:17 One stat, no, I liked double. I liked cubic zirconium all the way around. You would have loved the Staten Island guys. Like, you would have lost your mind at the Staten Island Mall in 2006. You would have been like dry humping at a hot topic. Well, you know what's funny is like, remember when Facebook came out and we had like, we're just like in the kind of in the beginning of high school that like we could have it. And did you ever like happen upon like your friends, cousins, boyfriend,
Starting point is 00:33:51 sister who like lives in a different state? Like I remember the first time I ever saw like a New Jersey prom like on Facebook. You were like and just being like, wait a minute. Like I don't know what's going on in my body, but I like these guys. It's funny because I heard that you're from Albany and I was like, oh, I didn't know they had Italians that like up north. I thought they all were in Brooklyn and New Jersey. I didn't know they made them in the cold like that. Well, because my family didn't come through Ellis Island. Do you think you're better than us?
Starting point is 00:34:26 No. How did they get here then? My great grandpa came over illegally as like a stowaway but through like a port in Boston and he had like a cousin in Albany. So that's how he ended up like. Yeah, it was like wherever you could get a job. And so we didn't have anyone in New York City yet. so no one lived there.
Starting point is 00:34:48 Look at you with the historical facts. I mean, there's definitely, like, there was definitely, like, a part of Albany that was all Italian at some point. No, I didn't, like, go to high, I didn't have, like, high school girlfriends that were Italian in the way I was Italian. Like, maybe they were a little Italian, but they didn't either, like, celebrate the way I did on holidays, and, like, their mom certainly didn't yell at them the way my mom did.
Starting point is 00:35:12 So I'm like, she doesn't love you. I'm like, did you just tell your mom to shut up? That's crazy. No, I love the jersey vibe. And I also love, yeah, I don't know what age that changed that I was like, I would never date someone with two earrings. But now I'm like, that's so terrifying. Although the thought of like being able to share earrings is nice. Everything I say, it's just like, page you're a lesbian and you should come out.
Starting point is 00:35:44 I'm like, but you could have the same wardrobe and that would be convenient. Because I like said something and some girl made a TikTok and she was like, I literally said this right before I came out. Well, Paige and I were famously on the phone and I said to her, I feel like every friend group has in the closet lesbian. And Paige said, not in my friend group. And I said, that's how you know that you're the one. guys you think you think i don't want this i want this my life would be so much easier yeah i could see like you know that one random like really girl or girl dated myly cyrus like yeah if you did meet the right girl you'd have like the happiest life but i don't know if that's for this lifetime i just know
Starting point is 00:36:29 the right girl could swipe you off your feet um here's the only reason and dare i jump in on this convo the only reason i say that i'm not is because from the moment I was little and I saw a boy like I knew I loved boys I genuinely think that's why my mom made me go to an all girls high school because she knew I loved boys yeah I also feel like if I came out people would be like boo boring it's like so much more exciting for you to come out it would be so exciting because I'm lesbian passing I identify as straight but I'm lesbian passing and that's why like I'm so close to the community and not all gay guys like me um even though I because they get lesbian vibes for me. But no, there's a certain gay guy that is my heart and my soul. Yeah. You know, I've been hearing more and more people talking about gays, gays versus like girls gays. Really?
Starting point is 00:37:26 Well, there was like a lot of discourse on TikTok, I feel like, about how there was a guy. Did you see the guy with the whole solid core thing? Yeah. Okay, so that, that saga, I didn't, we talked about it. In the very beginning. Is it still going? Hannah, it's still going on. And I don't know all the details.
Starting point is 00:37:48 If you want to look it up, I think it was in like Darien, Connecticut, I want to say. Yeah, it's this guy from Connecticut who's like putting solid core on blast all the time. But it was this gay man who would go to solid core and he would go to like the earliest class every day. And something happened. I think he like was recording the instructor and she might have been like late one day or something. Yeah. And they were like, please don't like record the instructors. like don't put this on the internet whatever and he was like totally like but like she was late
Starting point is 00:38:14 and then something else happened and he got in trouble for something else and they emailed them and they were like you can't do this and he was like totally like so sorry about it and then something else happened that like he was like I didn't do this so now he's almost at like three strikes the last thing he did I guess was he's in the parking lot before the class class even starts early in the morning. Like I think he goes to like the 6 a.m. So say they're in the parking lot at like 5.45. Also that is when you should be in REM sleep.
Starting point is 00:38:48 Nothing good happens before 7 a.m. Or after 1 a.m. Nothing good ever happens before 7 a.m. And I guess he was like yelling the instructor's name. And I don't and I think the instructor kind of got a little like, wait. Like are you like really mad at me? Like again like it is a man at the end of the day. And so like all these girls were making TikToks about like certain gay men that
Starting point is 00:39:10 have been like really mean to them whether it be like in their friend group or like in a work setting or something and i'm like yeah it's happened to me a couple times and it's very jarring because it's like well but we get each other you're like you're supposed to be on my side can you talk to for a second yeah there are some men it doesn't matter what what sexuality they are that yeah are misogynistic there's women who are misogynistic yeah just keep an eye out in these streets. Obviously gay men can relate to us on so many things. Like I had this one friend who she was like, she was saying how one of her gay guy friends like said something about her being fat while she was pregnant. And she was like, and it just like, really? I'm like, who was this gay?
Starting point is 00:40:02 Let me meet him. But she was saying like I would like hurt her feeling. She's like, I'm so hormonal and he kept saying like you have to be pregnant with twins it's just like and I'm not pregnant with twins you're crying because that's going to be you I'm going to cry so much I already know it's going to be so hard for me I'm going to be in pain all day all I think about is my short torso and that's because of you I was never scared of that before page not to be too positive but remember how much you loved raising your eggs and the hormones because you finally felt alive feeling I felt love I felt no I felt real feelings.
Starting point is 00:40:40 Hitting it, I felt real feelings during that, and that was scary. You were a girls' girl. It was a girls' girl. Anyway, what were we saying? I've also had gay man fight for me, like I've never been fought for. I had actually a beautiful moment with a gay gluer where I was in L.A. at a coffee shop. Scared. And there was one beautiful man just standing there.
Starting point is 00:41:07 And I was like, wow, he thinks I'm so good looking. And then it came up to me. And he was like, I just have to let you know, I love your comedy because on Netflix, there's not a lot of, like, gay male representation. So, like, your feminine comedy is, like, the closest I can relate to because I don't relate to other comics. And he was, like, and through you, I've been introduced to other, like, queer comics
Starting point is 00:41:30 and artists and, like, thank you for being a voice, like, that we needed. And I was, like, so I'm Lady Gaga. If there's one gay man in my audience, I go, it's really hard being Lady Gaga. And being the voice of a community. Hannah, you in a meat dress? I feel like is, you should do that when you're for Halloween. But also, like, being straight is so boring.
Starting point is 00:41:55 All I want to be is an ally to more interesting people. It's all I want in this world. Well, you want to know why being straight is annoying because it's so predictable. You got married, you had kids, and then he cheated. Yeah, we saw that. You know, it's just like our lives are so predictable. Where the gays, they go out. They're doing things with different people.
Starting point is 00:42:20 They're like, they're all over the place. Also, they're naturally traumatized because they were told by society that like what they do isn't the norm. So they're naturally been through shit that made them grow, which makes them hilarious. So anyway, just reminding all the gaglers how much we love you. and any man that's in the closet listening right now. Wait, what are you doing for the holiday weekend? Do you have any plans? Oh, Lenore's visiting.
Starting point is 00:42:46 Mm-hmm. And she's getting a mini-petty right now, and she watched me play paddle, and we might take, well, she loves a mental health walk. Lenore loves it, and she goes fast. She goes fast. Also, we're going to Vegas for the American Music Awards. Oh, fun.
Starting point is 00:43:02 Because you had a wedding. Yes, I do. I have a wedding in the middle of the week. I do have to say, I did find out I do have one wedding because it seems like kind of depressing me being like, I have no weddings. And then I felt like everyone was like talking about me like,
Starting point is 00:43:13 oh, she doesn't have any friends. There's a wedding that does and tell me about that I am invited to. So not your friend. Got it. Sorry all my friends are sluts. Sorry they're all business sluts who don't want paperwork involved. Sorry my friends have rejected the patriarchy.
Starting point is 00:43:32 Sorry my friends haven't settled. Yeah. Sorry I'm the only friend who's got paperwork involved. Did you see Sports Illustrated? They were like, um, Alex Earl, can you ask Hannah some questions about dating? And I was like, oh my, like, what am I going to say to Alex Earl about dating? I'm like, ask Alex Earl. Like I literally haven't sent like a good flirty text in a minute, even though back of my day.
Starting point is 00:43:56 But you still have it in you. I have it in me. And I do, um, moonlight for a lot of relationships. But like, I haven't put myself out there, obviously. But she was asking me questions about dating. And then at the end, I was like, I'm fucking married. I don't have to, I don't have to be defensive about that. I'm married.
Starting point is 00:44:13 So I, you have to listen to what I say anyway. Okay, one of the questions was funny. They were like, do you wait to text back or not? And I think I actually had kind of a good answer. Because I feel like waiting to text back. Yeah, do it a little bit, but it becomes too exhausting to be like, did I hit the hour mark? I think you text back immediately with typos. So he's like, she like.
Starting point is 00:44:37 She's busy, but also like she clearly doesn't give a fuck. She responded immediately and spelled everything wrong. She didn't send this to all her friends. And I think there's something confident about that. And you get the conversation going. Those are great answer. I hate when you're in these like four hour text things with guys where I'm like, I don't even know anything about him because we've only, we're playing this like game.
Starting point is 00:44:57 I'm like, we're all on our phones. Everyone. All the time. Everyone. But I said I wouldn't double text. I mean, I've definitely done it. I've done it like if it's like we're texting during the day and then like I'm out, but I'm not like continuing a conversation.
Starting point is 00:45:14 No, like I'm not asking the next question. Like if a natural question is to follow like then I'll say it. But if the conversation has come to a halt, I'm not reigniting it with a question. Or like if I said something really dud, like if I just said okay to something, then you can continue it as just like being nice also if he's your soulmate you could literally send him a paragraph about how you want to have his babies and he'll be like cool same yeah you can never act too crazy for the right guy ever me and hannah are very much in the true belief of traumatize them early see what they can handle yes see how strong they are yes and then you can weed it out really quickly
Starting point is 00:45:59 speaking of women of stem of the week wait before we get to women of stem of the week sorry i got ahead of myself. I've had so many girls messaging me, cosmetologist, who have learned the art of the gray hair, honey. And a lot of them said, it's a myth that it's not that if you pluck one out, five will grow in its place. It's that the belief that is that you are damaging, damaging the follicle, okay? And that that causes to grow back a little weird. No, I forgot what that you've just lost melanin that like it's growing like it's not gonna grow five more back but like that follicle it's gonna grow gray because you've lost melanin but it was already gray yeah my girls were like pluck away okay so it's funny whenever we say we're confused about
Starting point is 00:46:57 anything we get tons of messages from gigglers and i'm telling des i'm like oh my god we get so many messages from like doctors he's like who's messaging you up i'm like people are like hey i'm a surgeon at n y u langone i was just listening to giggly squad but i did get one message that threw me this girl said that she's our women instead of the week she is a twin and she said they did their own study on the ground boots on the ground journalism and said that she plucked her grays and her twin didn't and she has more grace so that threw me me that threw me threw me up but I'm still
Starting point is 00:47:36 plucking what are you because what are you doing if you're not plucking well a lot of girls worth giving like different root sprays that they use or I just want to go full gray with thick tortoiseshell glasses and a cape and just like walking around like talk a shit about everything okay but not like our 30s no more like
Starting point is 00:47:57 like our 60s late 30 but our women of stem of the weak runner up is Shakira. Yes. Do you know what Shakira did? Yes. Wait, do you want to tell them? So a couple of years ago, I don't know if you guys remember,
Starting point is 00:48:12 but Shakira was accused of tax fraud in Spain, and she literally proved the court wrong and was like, give me back my $10 million, I think. They seized or something, or froze. I actually didn't know about this part. And so she, like, proved that she didn't commit tax fraud. And they were like, okay, yeah, you're right. We're wrong.
Starting point is 00:48:32 Not to be controversial, but... Sounds like an inside job. Sounds something, something fishy is going on. Can girls commit tax fraud? No. I don't think we should pay full... We should pay 70% tax. If women were in charge of politics, that would be the first...
Starting point is 00:48:48 There would be no pink tax. Like, why are we getting taxed the most when we make the least? It kind of is crazy that feminine products are taxed. No woman would have thought that. Yeah. Some old man. But I'll add that to why she's women's the same of the week. but my reasoning was so her ex who cheated on her is like a soccer player or football and
Starting point is 00:49:09 she's the face of the World Cup so iconic so iconic so whatever your ex is doing and the way to be the face of it it's not that hard just like put your mind to it for a couple years and it's honestly it's not that hard imagine everywhere he goes it's just her face and her songs and And people are going to the game just to see her. Hell yeah. So respect to that. Because you know that her team was probably like, you could do this, you don't have to, you're ready an icon, you don't need to work this summer.
Starting point is 00:49:43 And she's like, yeah, I do. Yeah, I do. Yeah, I do. Clear my plans. I definitely do. And the documentary I recommend everyone watch is the Kylie Minogue documentary. What's that on? It's on Netflix.
Starting point is 00:49:56 It's three episodes. I don't think they talked about how good. her style was. And one thing I'm very jealous of Kylie Minogue for it, she's, first of all, I think it's Mano. I'm going to have to say Minot to that. I hate myself. I think it's Minogue.
Starting point is 00:50:19 Okay. It's not Minoguegu, either. No, I knew that. And it's not Montagueu. No, that's a whole different. Family. A whole different word. Yeah.
Starting point is 00:50:27 It's just a different word. But you can say Mano to bring it back to the beginning. Like if that's what your heart is singing. We should double check on it. So the thing with Kylie Minogue, do you know that she, the thing with Connie Minow, she started in Australia, that's where she was born, on a soap opera that blew up. Like everyone was obsessed with it.
Starting point is 00:50:50 It spread to the UK. It spread to Ireland. And then she decided she wanted to do some singing. And everyone was like, you can't be a singer. You're an actor. And she was like, I'm 19 years old. I love music. I've always loved music.
Starting point is 00:51:03 And it just reminded me how much, like, people want to put people in boxes. Yeah. Because I hate being put in a box. Like, the second I'm in a box, I try to, like, do the other thing. Will you try and break the box? Yes. And I do think people can't comprehend that just because you started somewhere, that's not where you wanted to end.
Starting point is 00:51:21 And a lot of the time when you do something that's not even what you planned, and then they put a fucking stamp on your forehead and they're like, this is who you are now. So she was like, yeah, I was auditioning for gigs to make money. but like I always wanted to be a singer. Like I actually never wanted to be a soap opera actress. And she's so fucking beautiful. And she hasn't gotten work done,
Starting point is 00:51:39 which makes her like so, like you can't look away because she's unique looking. And what I'm so jealous of her about, this bitch can pull off every hair color and every hair length. From a shaved head, bright, blonde, blue, black. How old is she? She's now 57. And she's on like a full world tour.
Starting point is 00:52:04 Her career was insane and I love a music documentary. I just like eat that shit up. You love a music documentary. Do you know I haven't watched one music documentary that you've told me to watch. Why do you do this to me? Because I feel like you've watched it so you've informed us enough for the both of us. So if we ever run into this person someday, you literally have us covered. I'll be like, she thought your name was Minow.
Starting point is 00:52:29 embarrassing I think it might be Are you watching anything Am I watching anything No honestly TV has sucked recently Yeah what the helly I don't know
Starting point is 00:52:39 The streaming platforms Guys did you clock out Like what's going on There's no shows Everything is like I know that we are feminist Because we are alive But every show
Starting point is 00:52:54 Feel so geared toward men That I'm like Oh Like, I don't care about, like, this drug deal gone wrong. One thing I wanted to say about your special is, like, the Utah girls must have been, like, um, who did Hannah's hair? It was giving full Mormon wife, but, like, she doesn't wear her undergarments. Like, naughty. Jessie from Mormon wives commented.
Starting point is 00:53:21 I'm sure she did, what she said. She was like, I can't wait to watch. She definitely was like, that's my sister. No. I was like, where is Hannah's long blue dress and seven kids? Because you were giving Mormon. Lethair was giving J.Z. Stiles. Do you Han and Paige try new things Mormon?
Starting point is 00:53:40 Please. Just one day. Or just like any cult? Yeah. You're like, I think she's slipping. I think she's slipping. It's really hard to be in a cult if you have stomach problems like I do because it's like communal bathroom and you can't get up during the group.
Starting point is 00:53:57 group like chanting because I get mad at you so I'm like I'm like kind of past the cold I just also like need to be alone for a certain amount of hours of diet and so like don't tell me what to do because I'll have to like kill you so like no I'm not in your cult anyway I hope everyone has a lovely holiday weekend for giggling with us have a great weekend we love you so much bye
