Speaker 1 Hey, it's Paige DeSorbo from Giggly Squad. Head home for the holidays with Abercrombie and Fitch.
Speaker 1 We all know our calendars are about to get chaotic for non-stop plans, and Abercrombie has the pieces to curate your perfect seasonal wardrobe.
Speaker 1 Sweaters and denim for casual plans, party dresses for nights out, and comfy matching sets for everything in between. Keep the chaos cute this season in Abercrombie.
Speaker 1 Shop their new holiday outfits in the app, online, or in stores.
Speaker 1 So I recently had one of those moments where I stood in front of my closet and I said, I have nothing to wear, while surrounded by hundreds of things I never touch.
Speaker 1
So I started listing them on Depop, and honestly, it's amazing. You can sell the pieces you're over and someone out there will be obsessed with them.
And the best part, there's no seller fees, none.
Speaker 1
So the money you make actually stays in your pocket, which feels very chic. Plus, it's so easy.
I listed something while watching TV and it sold before the episode even ended.
Speaker 1 Depop isn't just one aesthetic either, it's all of them. Minimal, street wear, date night, whatever your vibe is, there's someone who shares it.
Speaker 1 So, download the Depop app and list your first item today because your old outfit might be someone else's new favorite.
Speaker 1 And don't forget to tune in to our latest bonus episode, where Hannah and I will take calls from the Giggly Squad Style Hotline.
Speaker 1 We're helping solve your fashion dilemmas, shopping woes, and style questions. Submit yours now at gigglystylehotline.com for a chance to get your question answered by us on the show.
Speaker 1 Depop, where taste recognizes taste.
Speaker 2 Sup, gigglers.
Speaker 1 Gary, fix the Wi-Fi.
Speaker 2 Manifest that shit.
Speaker 2 We can't be managed.
Speaker 1 I mean, the day just got away from me.
Speaker 2 What's up, my giggly G-Wagons?
Speaker 1 I feel like you've seen a lot of G-Wagons going to the Hamptons.
Speaker 2 Oh, my God. It's so many of the same cars.
Speaker 2 As a fellow driver, I'm like, hi, hi, fellow drivers.
Speaker 1 No, I didn't even put that together. Like, I'm like, what in the hell?
Speaker 2 This is the thing. I passed on Friday, and we've moved on.
Speaker 1 Congratulations. What does it feel like
Speaker 1 to be a citizen? Love when you interview me.
Speaker 2 Oh, like a partially functioning adult. Yeah.
Speaker 1 Like a contributing member of society.
Speaker 2 Hopefully I don't contribute too much because then people won't be safe. But, you know, I thought about this because a lot of people are listening thinking, Hannah, how did you do this?
Speaker 2 How did you overcome your fears?
Speaker 1 Where did you take it again?
Speaker 2
Wantua, Long Island. Okay.
I want to let people know mental health moment. I passed my driver's test at 33.
Speaker 2 I am an inspiration.
Speaker 2 In that,
Speaker 2 you know, when you just like define yourself as something, like, I'm Hannah. I'm many things.
Speaker 2 But driver, I am not.
Speaker 2
And I was like, she's quirky. She's silly, but she can't drive.
And that's
Speaker 2 like, that's who I am. And I said, who am I to question that?
Speaker 1 I really wish that every time you met someone, a 15-second, like...
Speaker 2
She's silly. She's cool.
She likes to go to school.
Speaker 1
Yeah, like it's new girl, like, and it's Jessica Debt. Like, I wish, like, you knew what you were getting into, kind of.
Like, what did they pick tonally? Like,
Speaker 2
what's the aesthetic? It's like a trailer before you go on a date, like what the relationship's gonna be. No, that was me.
That was my character. And then I stopped and I said, you know what?
Speaker 2 I can change myself today.
Speaker 2 I can be someone new today.
Speaker 2 And look, is it off-brand? Was it off-brand for me to get married? Yeah, everyone's still confused about it. But you know what? I keep people on their fucking toes.
Speaker 2 Just when you think you get a hold of me, I've changed and I've evolved. But I'd say this summer is my mental health summer of improving as a person.
Speaker 1 You're kidding. I didn't know that.
Speaker 2 I didn't say it out loud because it wasn't really happening.
Speaker 2 Was sorry.
Speaker 1 Let me just back it up here.
Speaker 2 Was this an intention?
Speaker 1 Nope. Let me put it in reverse.
Speaker 2 Let me three-point turn it for a minute. I know exactly what you're referencing.
Speaker 2
Parallel it for me. Parallel it.
But make sure you check your blind spot.
Speaker 2 Wait, why is that going to stick? Check your blind spot.
Speaker 2
Not me checking my blind spot 800 times. The driver says, like, did you see? There's a blind spot.
You got to check.
Speaker 1
Check it again. You know, that's the one piece of advice my dad gave me before I went to take my road test.
He was like, I think you're going to fail.
Speaker 1 Everyone in our family thinks you're going to fail. But keep checking your blind spot.
Speaker 2
We have the same family. We have the same family.
And for people who don't know, I did pass it once when I was 24, but I rammed the curb at the end.
Speaker 2 And my dad was like, I don't feel safe with you on the road. So I never had actual confidence.
Speaker 2
And I basically was like, look, I'm getting lessons and I'm actually going to have confidence in my driving and become a good driver. Yeah.
Des and I must have parallel parked like
Speaker 2 a hundred times.
Speaker 1
You know, it is a sport. Like, it is actually a sport.
Like, there's NASCAR, there's F1.
Speaker 1 So like it is out of your character to not drive drive and to also not be like amazing at it, I feel like.
Speaker 2 Also, because I'm from New York City, not to play the New York City card, but like a lot of my friends don't have licenses.
Speaker 1 Right. You don't need them.
Speaker 2 So at 33, like I can only be so good at driving with the lack of experience that I've been in a car. Like at one point, Des was like, how do you not have spatial awareness?
Speaker 2 And I'm like, cause I literally snap every time I'm in a car.
Speaker 1 Do you want to know what it's almost slightly similar to, which you hate?
Speaker 2 Don't say frisbee.
Speaker 1 Skiing.
Speaker 2 No, you're so right.
Speaker 1 Yeah, because you do have to have, like, you have to check your blind spot. You have to have such like spatial awareness.
Speaker 2 And like one mistake, you could die.
Speaker 1 One tree, you're out.
Speaker 1 Wow, that got dark.
Speaker 2 That got really dark.
Speaker 2
But like, that's why I love, I love jazz. I love stand-up.
You could, you kind of mess your way into it, make mistakes, but keep going. This, there's no room for error.
Speaker 2 And especially learning older, like, I feel like when you're 16, you're like, all the kids are doing it. Let's go to Sonic.
Speaker 1
And well, you're also similar to skiing. You're not as nervous to fall.
Do you know what I mean? Like, you're not.
Speaker 2 You're 16.
Speaker 1
You're like, oh, didn't even know. I almost just got off like a one-way, like, oopsie.
But when you're an adult, you're like,
Speaker 1 everyone will die.
Speaker 2 And when you crash when you're 16, your parents do the paperwork for you. Like, I have to deal with the paperwork now.
Speaker 1 like i didn't realize like i have to deal with insurance one time i was like i think i was like 17 i might have even been i might have even been 18 and i was pulling out of a parking spot and someone was like driving by and i mean i rammed right into them
Speaker 1 I rammed into like the back of their car though, not like I didn't.
Speaker 2 You didn't get like their whole family.
Speaker 1 Yeah, I didn't like T-bone them or anything.
Speaker 2 I literally hit like the bumper.
Speaker 1 But I got out of the car and that was the first time I had ever done that or ever ever been in like an accident like that.
Speaker 2 Bender bender.
Speaker 1 And I cried so much because I was in
Speaker 2 such
Speaker 1 shock of like that I did that to this lady that she literally was like, it's less hassle to deal with you.
Speaker 1 And I'm just gonna go.
Speaker 2 She's like, I'm gonna pay you to leave me alone.
Speaker 1
I was like, wait a minute, let me call my dad. Like, I'll know exactly what to do.
I think she also heard my dad being like, god damn it
Speaker 2 you go can you hold my hand and we pray to saint anthony together she's like leave me alone don't get religion into this he was like are you kidding me
Speaker 1 i'm like okay so i'm like i need to come here
Speaker 2 i also i had a really bad embarrassing driving test experience when a How old was I? A couple years ago where
Speaker 2
I was practicing with Des and Des was like, you're not ready, and I wasn't ready. And I was trying to just like wing it like I did the previous one.
Yeah.
Speaker 2
And I just immediately started and took a too tight of a turn. And the guy was like, you're going too fast.
And that was too tight of a turn. Turn around.
Speaker 2 And I was like, what? You're not.
Speaker 1 You're not.
Speaker 2
You're not. When I tell you, and it's so embarrassing, there's a line of like 40 cars.
Everyone's watching you. Clearly, I fucked up so bad.
He was like, I've seen what I needed to see.
Speaker 2 I've seen what I needed to see. So, like you're embarrassed anyway
Speaker 2 but of course you know with me it's never there's always a little bit of drama yeah so we get there i'm feeling good i take my beta blocker it's kicking in i'm feeling zen as fuck like the calmest you could be yep
Speaker 2
and the way the test starts is there's a red light in front of a really busy road And I'm in my head. I'm like, trigger blind spot.
Like, make sure you cross over the arms.
Speaker 2 Don't T-bone anyone like i have a zillion things in my head we're at the red light and all these cars are passing by and then the cars there's no cars but it's still red light and i'm like in my head like i think you're supposed to turn right on red in long island but this was i did not factor this into the test like i was like
Speaker 2 like hardwiring yeah not sure what to do but i'm like it's okay it'll turn red eventually like i mean it'll turn green soon it felt like 10 minutes i'm sitting in silence with this anyone behind you I think there was, but no one was honking.
Speaker 2
But, like, it was the beginning of the test. And I just basically was like, I couldn't get myself to go on a red light.
Like, I just felt, I just freaked out and just froze.
Speaker 1 Well, because that is too, not to defend you,
Speaker 1
but like in New York, it is different all over. Like, in New York City, you can't go right on red.
In Albany, you can go right on red. In Long Island, like, I don't know if you can.
Speaker 2 In my head, you can. You're supposed to.
Speaker 2 But I don't. Because when in doubt, I will be fearful.
Speaker 1 Yeah.
Speaker 2
When in high pressure situations, I will be scared. And I was immediately like, I'm not going.
I'm not moving.
Speaker 1 Yeah. I will freeze.
Speaker 2 I will.
Speaker 2 When a challenge comes my way, I will be paralyzed. I'm paralyzed.
Speaker 2
I will fold like a cheap beach chair under the pressure. So Des is watching this like, oh my fucking God.
Like he's like, she's already.
Speaker 1 Wait, how is he watching?
Speaker 2 So he leaves the car and he's standing there and watches me leave to start the test. Okay, gotcha.
Speaker 2
Oh, it looks so embarrassing. Then also, you know me, I'm like, do I make a joke? Like, so the guy looks at me.
I give him my ID and he looks at me and he goes, is this you?
Speaker 2 Which was a weird thing to say, but I was wearing my hair and a ponytail. So I go, yep, that's just me with the ponytail now.
Speaker 2 And he like kind of giggled. Because the gigglers told me to put my hair up and wear long earrings so they can see that you're checking all your mirrors.
Speaker 1 No, the gigglers are witches.
Speaker 2 I pulled all the stuff.
Speaker 2 And they were sardine earrings.
Speaker 1 You've never worn a long earring in your time. Never.
Speaker 2
I ordered sardine earrings. You would have hated them.
But it made me like funny, but also grounded. You know, like, I love animals.
Speaker 2 She loves classical music.
Speaker 2 Like, I was trying to be someone I wasn't in this road test.
Speaker 1 What was the outfit that you picked?
Speaker 2 Oh my God.
Speaker 2
So, my driver, shout out Greg, who I have to get a present for. I'm so stressed.
He told me not to dress too nice.
Speaker 2
Okay. As a woman.
So like they said the men to dress nice, like button up. But if you're a woman, if you dress too like sexy, they judge you.
It's like literally female stand-ups.
Speaker 2
Oh my God. That's what he said.
So I just wore like a t-shirt and honestly, I wore basically what I'm wearing right now. I looked like a teenager.
Speaker 1 A t-shirt and shorts?
Speaker 2
T-shirt and shorts, hair-ups, sardine earrings. Okay.
Actually, now that I said it out loud.
Speaker 2 I don't trust that girl.
Speaker 2 I don't trust her at all. She's up to something.
Speaker 2 She's trying too hard.
Speaker 2 Nothing makes sense. You're not driving my child to school.
Speaker 2 No, you're making me die.
Speaker 2 So. Wait four hours for this red to turn green.
Speaker 2 No, but it felt like we're literally in silence. And I'm like, you know, I've, I've, when was the last time I sat in silence?
Speaker 1 No, I'm literally, I have tears. Okay.
Speaker 2 So I get on the road and I am in the zone. Like, I'm like, you've trained your, you've trained all week for this.
Speaker 2 And like, also, I didn't have to tell the gigglers. Like, I could have done this like undercover, but
Speaker 2 yes, it added, it added so much more stress to my life, but
Speaker 2 well, the reward is so much greater. Yeah.
Speaker 1 And it also, I'm sure, relieved a lot of stress.
Speaker 2
Relieved stress. Also, I felt like if I failed, at least it would be good content for Giggly Squad.
Thank God. Thank God.
So, honestly, like, I was feeling myself. I was turning.
Speaker 2
He goes, Parallel Park. I did it pretty far away from the curb.
Like, didn't try to get fancy. And then I drove up.
Nailed the three-point turn, like, beautifully.
Speaker 2 Yeah.
Speaker 1 Those are always my favorite.
Speaker 2 No, I actually was like here to have fun with it. I was like, poopy, poopy.
Speaker 1 You were like making it your own.
Speaker 2 Then you know when you start showing off and you're like, I'm going to do one more blind spot check just for fun.
Speaker 2 I'm going to twerk, back it up. You need anything? You good? Okay.
Speaker 2 Welcome to the Hanna Mobile.
Speaker 2 So then we're turning back and I'm feeling like,
Speaker 2 I'm feeling the happiest I've ever felt in my life. Like
Speaker 2
better than my Netflix special. Like, I, I don't know.
I'm like dreams you computer.
Speaker 1 You're euphoria.
Speaker 2 I'm euphoric, but I'm also high as fuck on beta blockers also is that legal anyway so then he goes okay pull in and does the standing there and immediately I'm like do not hit the fucking curb like do not hit the fucking curb so I like pull in and I'm like
Speaker 2 far far from the curb I'm pretty far from the curb okay which is not good yeah but I'm like I nailed my parallel park I nailed all my turns
Speaker 2 But then the guy is like, we don't tell you if you passed or failed.
Speaker 2
You'll see it online tonight at 6 p.m. because apparently New Yorkers have been assaulting the testing people when they failed.
Like the guy's like, you failed.
Speaker 2 And they'd be like, what the fuck are you talking about? And like, fight them.
Speaker 1 It's not funny.
Speaker 2 It's not funny.
Speaker 1 It's truly disgusting, is what it is.
Speaker 1 But also, also, I need Andy and a camera.
Speaker 1 Because what the fuck do you mean
Speaker 1 that the goddamn DMV can't tell you if you passed or failed because they're afraid for their lives?
Speaker 2
Also, like, I'm wearing sardine earrings. Like, I'm not hurting anybody.
I'm like a cat. I'm more scared of you than you are of me.
Speaker 2
You know, like, but I also, I do understand, like, I don't want the people feeling like if they tell someone they failed, that they might get hurt. That's fucking crazy.
That's insane.
Speaker 2 But then I have to have diarrhea for the next six hours. Right.
Speaker 1 It's like, okay, well, why don't you send me the email?
Speaker 2
And, like, like, also, like, can you give me a blank? Like, give me like a, like. Yeah, like, you're.
Okay, but did I, yeah, like, give me something. Give me a smile.
Speaker 1 Literally be a girl's girl for once in your life.
Speaker 2 Bro, like, do you support women?
Speaker 2
Do you, you already know it's hard for us to drive. You already know we're struggling out here.
And you,
Speaker 2
you already know. Also, I'm PMS.
I'm PMSing so bad. Actually, my period was four days late.
So I'm pregnant at that point. Okay.
And like, I have literally something.
Speaker 1 I'm like, sorry, where's the baby on board sticker?
Speaker 2 Mind you, the second I passed my test, I got my period. Because, you know, when your body's like so stressed out, it like can't even ovulate.
Speaker 2 So anyway, he leaves the car, and I walk out of the car, and I look at Des and I'm like,
Speaker 2
she's that girl. I was like, she did it.
He goes, that's crazy because the beginning and the end, the only parts I saw, you completely fucked up.
Speaker 1 No, and that man keeps you humble.
Speaker 2 That man
Speaker 2 grounds me.
Speaker 1 No, keeps your feet firmly planted. And
Speaker 2
it's beautiful. But then we obviously go to a diner after, as one does, after you take a road test in Wantaw, you find the nearest diner, and we sit there.
And I'm like, I passed.
Speaker 2
And he's like, you didn't take a write on red, and you like, we're 200 feet from the curb at the end. He goes, that can't be good.
So then we're googling.
Speaker 1 Like we're deep in real life. Yeah, like it's a series of points, right?
Speaker 2 And it's literally not to say, like, I'm an Olympian, but like, it's giving Simone Biles gymnastics. Yeah, you made one mistake, but how many points do they feel like deducting that day?
Speaker 2 Because, yeah, if you do one bad turn, they could also deduct for careless driving.
Speaker 2 Look. Yeah.
Speaker 1 The world is really their oyster.
Speaker 2 They can get on power trips. And this man gave me nothing.
Speaker 1 Now that you passed, they should probably, probably be replaced by AI.
Speaker 2 Oh,
Speaker 1 like driving tests.
Speaker 2 Okay, Paige, that's.
Speaker 1 Sorry, did I go too hard?
Speaker 1 And actually, well, let's have your job taken away.
Speaker 2 You go, and you're done. But also, I.
Speaker 1 You were me to my friend, and so now I'm sending a robot.
Speaker 2 But also, I was trying to wait until like you basically get self-driving cars, and they basically have like self-driving cars now but anyway that's a whole nother scary issue so we're sitting at the diner literally like people saying like yeah if you don't turn a right on the red that's considered like um slowing down traffic which is 10 points and i'm i've convinced myself i failed at that point because i have des whose you know foot is on my neck like my soldier my biggest op my biggest op at that point doesn't believe in me thinks i'm lying about it going well he goes so with the parking spot how how good did you park?
Speaker 2 I was like, I did it. I did it.
Speaker 2 And then I'm questioning myself. I'm like, did I do it?
Speaker 1 No, and this is how they get you.
Speaker 2
This is how they get you. And this is part of the driving test.
You have to fight your own demons. Yeah.
Speaker 2 Oh my God. So then I'm going to my mom's play on Shelter Island for the Historical Society.
Speaker 2 She wrote, directed, acted, sang in it.
Speaker 1
You are literally a woman about town this summer. Like you have galas, you have historical societies, like you're wearing Vivian Westwood on a Saturday evening.
Like, I'm like, who is this person?
Speaker 2 I'm a suburban mother.
Speaker 1 No, you truly are.
Speaker 2 I'm a suburban mother.
Speaker 2
And I've, yeah, I'm not working, but somehow I have the busiest summer I've ever had in my life. But I had to support my mother.
And you know, that's the only thing that I will.
Speaker 1 Drop everything for.
Speaker 2 Drop everything for, as she would for me. As she would for me.
Speaker 2 Right before her play, like you have to keep checking.
Speaker 1 Yeah. It's like getting into college.
Speaker 2 Literally, or like an STD test.
Speaker 1 Yep.
Speaker 2
You're crazy because you were like, tell me what time you find out. And I was like, 6 p.m.
6 p.m. on the dot, you text me and you go, what the fuck is going on?
Speaker 1 I said, hello.
Speaker 2 Hello. Hello.
Speaker 1 Hello.
Speaker 2
And then, like, honestly, it was like rainbows, butterflies. I blacked out.
I'm so happy. So now we're car shopping.
Speaker 1 Have you driven since?
Speaker 2 Next day, we go car shopping.
Speaker 2 Shortly realized to test drive, the guy goes in the car with you. And I'm like, bro.
Speaker 1 Respectfully, this is, it's PTSD. I just did this.
Speaker 2 No, because he's like, make it right up here. And I'm like, what are you judging me?
Speaker 1 Also, like, how many points? Huh? How many points?
Speaker 2 How many points was that? I feel like, why do you have to, I was like, can you not watch? Can you look over there when I turn? Like, don't look at me when I'm driving were you by yourself?
Speaker 2
I was with Des in the front and then like the guy would be in the back and he'd be like yeah take a ride up here and I'm like sir. Yeah.
Please. I've been around the block before.
I've driven before.
Speaker 2 I've drove yesterday.
Speaker 2 So we
Speaker 2 Des and I have solar panels.
Speaker 1 Can you imagine if you said like, oh, this is where I learned to drive like in this parking lot and he'd be like, oh my god, are you from here? Like do you go to high school?
Speaker 1 You're like literally yesterday.
Speaker 2
Des literally was like, She just passed a driving test, and the guy's like, Oh, nice. And Des is like, Yesterday.
And he's like, Are you worried? And I'm like, No, but you should be. Um,
Speaker 2
I just like kept joking. But also, driving a new car you've never drove is like, Yeah, yeah, I know you have to do it.
I was nervous, like, I couldn't figure out some things.
Speaker 2 I was nervous, but we want to get an electric car
Speaker 2 for me.
Speaker 2 Um, why am I fucking with the Kia?
Speaker 2 Are you? There's like a Kia E6 that like looks cool. Because I don't think I should get a nice car.
Speaker 1 Des is not a nice car guy.
Speaker 2 No, he is, but he's...
Speaker 2 Look, I can get whatever car I want. But he's like, maybe we get a starter car before you get big cars.
Speaker 1 I mean, I didn't really think that like, yeah, it is kind of like giving a 16-year-old. Like, look.
Speaker 2 Should I get a Lambo and let the gigglers just like hang off the side of it? Yeah. And run around New York City with my top down.
Speaker 1 Wait, literally, if there's any car that I could vote for you to get, it's like a 2016 Hummer.
Speaker 2 I go, I want an electric Kia. And you go, no, get a Hummer.
Speaker 1 Wait, I used to want one of those so bad.
Speaker 2 And my dad was like, those things don't even fit in New York City. You can't get it.
Speaker 1 And he's like, no, you're not getting a freaking Hummer.
Speaker 2 Try parallel parking with that.
Speaker 1 That was a car I wanted.
Speaker 2 But that was also like a very specific time in our culture where there was like...
Speaker 1 It was literally for six months I wanted it.
Speaker 2 There was like the bedazzled phones.
Speaker 1 Which I had to do.
Speaker 2 And the hummer. The Motorolas.
Speaker 2 So, yeah, I'm thinking of like an electric car.
Speaker 2
And I'm going to keep testing them. But it's fun.
I feel like an adult. Like, I feel like...
Speaker 1 No, I mean, you are.
Speaker 2 16 to 30.
Speaker 1 It's crazy how fast they grow up.
Speaker 2 I'm like grown. And I feel like, I don't know, like I'm like telling people directions now.
Speaker 1 I feel like I have been like we live in each other's brains because like recently now I'm like I haven't driven in so long do I remember how to drive and like I started getting nervous
Speaker 2 no don't let my insecurities creep up on you but I do have to say I've been getting messages from gigglers being like hey I'm 38 I never drove but if you could do it it's given me confidence that I could do it and I said you know what
Speaker 2 Period. So anyone stay off the roads right now because the gigglers are experimenting.
Speaker 1 No, it's nice to like be somewhere and be like, oh, I can leave because I can drive myself.
Speaker 1
I have been really into rings recently and I've been obsessed with stacking. I feel like when I was away on vacation, I wore way more jewelry than I usually do.
And that's because of Majori.
Speaker 1 Majori uses only the finest materials from 14 karat gold and sterling silver to diamonds and gemstones and they prioritize sustainable practices and exceptional quality.
Speaker 1 Between their accessible price points and stackable designs, there's a reason it's one of the most loved jewelry brands out there.

Speaker 1 I love this time of year because it's cozy sweater season and there's not as much tight clothing, but the one thing that will ruin cozy sweater season is if you're wearing a bra that's super uncomfortable.
Speaker 1
That's where Honey Love comes in. Most bras are uncomfortable and come off the minute you get home, but Honey Love is different.
Their wireless bras are soft, lightweight, and supportive.
Speaker 1 It's designed to move with your body, not against it, so there's no more digging straps, underwire pokes, or constant adjusting.
Speaker 1 And if you're tired of bras causing bulge in the back, Honey Love's bras are designed with back-smoothing fabric to prevent bra bulge, and they also have their new v-neck bra for totally smooth-fit underclothing.
Speaker 1 Honey Love recently launched their new cloud embrace bra, also, which sold out in just days.

Speaker 2 Anyway, how are you? Let's start the pod.
Speaker 1 Literally, let's start the pod.
Speaker 2 Shout out
Speaker 2 to one of my favorite outfits you've done.
Speaker 1 Which, what? Oh, for Las Culturistas.
Speaker 2 Sophia Loren.
Speaker 2 Adding the hat.
Speaker 2 It's not done a lot. Like, people aren't doing a matching hat, and it takes a particular head shape that most people don't have.
Speaker 2
First thing I thought of. Thank you.
You had to get it custom, probably fitted.
Speaker 1 No.
Speaker 2 No, it fit your head perfectly as it would. And you were like embodying the character.
Speaker 2 Tell us about this look.
Speaker 1 Let me tell you the story behind it. So, Last Culturistas was doing their first ever like televised
Speaker 1 award show.
Speaker 1
I'm not kidding and you know me, I don't like being out of the house. I certainly don't like going to social events.
I went by myself. I had to get on a plane to go.
Speaker 2 Basically Fiji.
Speaker 1
I was like nervous to go. I was like nervous about my look.
It was, I felt like I was really like risking whatever. So on the invitation, it said 1940s themed.
Like it was 1940.
Speaker 1 The red carpet was supposed to be like 1940s glamour so I was like oh
Speaker 1 if there's a theme I'm doing the theme and then when I walked in I was like oh okay so no one else wanted to do the theme got it
Speaker 2 so like that is what first happened to me so you never mind being the most um well-dressed in the room oh being like
Speaker 1
yeah you never mind it I would take being overdressed than underdressed any day of the week. True.
Like I'd rather walk in someplace and people be like, oh my God, why is she wearing that here?
Speaker 1 And it'd be like a ball gown rather than like my
Speaker 2 see, like, me walking somewhere in a ball gown and everyone's in normal clothes.
Speaker 2 That's my panic attack.
Speaker 1 It was
Speaker 1
so funny. Like, they are 100% going to get asked to host the Golden Globes.
They, I can't, I don't want to give too much away because it's airing, I think it airs
Speaker 1 August 5th on Bravo and then it's on Peacock.
Speaker 1
I haven't laughed like that consecutively and like been happy to be out in so long. And I literally, I'm like, oh my God, and I'm by myself.
Like, I'm having the best time with myself.
Speaker 2 Oh.
Speaker 1 So when I sat down,
Speaker 1 there was a, there was two empty seats like on either side of me. And Gabby, Wendy, and her wife, Robbie,
Speaker 1
Robbie, Robbie Hoffman were sitting next to me. They were so nice to me.
I like leaned over and was like, just want to say, like, I'm a huge fan of both of you.
Speaker 1
And Gabby immediately was like, did you come by yourself? Like, you can sit next to us. But I was like, I think there's someone that's supposed to be sitting here.
But they were so nice. And I just
Speaker 1 know, and it was just the best time ever. So, once it airs, I will give like more spoilers about it, but it was just so much fun.
Speaker 2 You would get along with Robbie and Gabby because they are the reality TV comedy couple.
Speaker 1 No, I felt like it was like us.
Speaker 2 No, I love them so much. Oh,
Speaker 2 Paige almost spilled her entire Dunkin' Refresher on Daphne.
Speaker 1 Except that I'm an actual. Did you see that athlete?
Speaker 2
Yeah, let's do a replay on the YouTube slow-mo replay. Well, your fingers are so long.
You like grabbed it with the tip of your finger.
Speaker 1 That was crazy.
Speaker 2 That was crazy.
Speaker 1 None even got on my floor.
Speaker 2 I mean, we're looking, it's a sports podcast.
Speaker 2
Literally. No, but yeah, the look nailed it.
It's funny. You were nervous about it, and I was just immediately like, maybe it's because
Speaker 2
I do have crazy looks on carpets. I was like, that's chill.
That's a chill, nice, good look.
Speaker 1
I felt like it was like, I had this picture that I was trying to like kind of recreate. And I just felt like I just got back from Italy.
Like, I was super tan.
Speaker 1
And it was just, and also, here's the other thing on why I did it. It was girls and gays.
It was a night for the girls and the gays.
Speaker 2
Also, there's, you don't need an explanation for anything, but I feel like you're in a creative place and I'm really inspired. I'm inspired.
I'm creative.
Speaker 2 Can I have a quick warning PSA?
Speaker 2 We've all been drinking from our Stanleys.
Speaker 2 I don't know if we all are washing our Stanley's property properly. And by we, I mean me.
Speaker 2 And you too, are you putting your hand up as well? Okay,
Speaker 2 I thought that, you know, after I finish my Stanley, I put the water in it and it's washed.
Speaker 2 Somehow, I see the straw of my Stanley.
Speaker 1 And it's humble, it's humbling.
Speaker 2 What?
Speaker 2 Yeah.
Speaker 2 Live animals are living in a full ecosystem in the straw of my Stanley.
Speaker 2 And it's because I put my electrolytes in every day. So if you put sugar in it, which that's all I'm doing, I'm drinking sugar with a little water.
Speaker 1 And God forbid you're a girl who wants to throw a lipstick on once in a while.
Speaker 2 God forbid you have
Speaker 2 a peach, you know,
Speaker 2 road lip pore.
Speaker 1 God forbid you have a literal peptide
Speaker 1 going into your lip pores.
Speaker 2 When I tell you, I've been just drinking straight mold from my Stanley, which, by the way, tastes kind of good,
Speaker 2
for who knows how long. So now I'm worried.
Like,
Speaker 2 do I have everything that TikTok says I have?
Speaker 1 Okay, well, as a longtime Stanley drinker, I would classify myself as...
Speaker 1 went through this like epiphany a couple months ago and so I ended up ordering like a bunch of new extra straws.
Speaker 2 Yeah, you just throw it away.
Speaker 1 I throw them away, or like I, then I can like rotate washing them because it's like, okay, well, I can't take 15 minutes out of my day every day to deal with the Stanley situation.
Speaker 1 Like, what do I look like? You know, I don't have kids, I don't have to go as hard.
Speaker 2 Like, I well, you, they have like Stanley straw cleaners that you can buy, which again, that's above my pay grade. Like, that's so organized to be like, oh, time to clean the straw.
Speaker 2
Let me use my accessory. Like, we're not doing that.
We're not doing that.
Speaker 1 I'm throwing everything in the dishwasher. I'm doing it the normal way, like, with the, in the faucet, whatever.
Speaker 2 Yeah.
Speaker 2 You're pull out and pray. Pull out and pray.
Speaker 1
I feel like I have so many Stanleys now that I just like started rotating them. Yeah.
Yeah. And I, I was like, because I can't.
Speaker 2 And your apartment's so big, you can fit so many Stanleys, as in like five of them.
Speaker 1 I literally think I might have five Stanleys.
Speaker 2 Do you know what this made made me think about? Hmm.
Speaker 2 What happened to juicing?
Speaker 1 Like juice cleansing.
Speaker 2
Yeah, and like, do you remember when juices were like the thing? Like every block in New York City was a juice store. And then the girls woke up with a clean.
It was Gwen if Paltrow.
Speaker 1 Remember when Gwen would do that like crazy juice cleanse and she would say she would do it like once a year?
Speaker 2 Yeah.
Speaker 2
But then like people were doing it like every day. You should have a green juice and all this stuff.
And now like one day I woke up, no juices anywhere.
Speaker 1 Remember when everyone was doing celery juice?
Speaker 2 Yeah, that's
Speaker 2 insane.
Speaker 1 That's disgusting. Celery juice is disgusting.
Speaker 2 At least to a fruit.
Speaker 1 The thing with juicing is, I think, I think it like was
Speaker 1 realized.
Speaker 1 There was so much sugar when you did that to the fruits and vegetables.
Speaker 2 And it was actually like a lot of calories. It's like just eat an apple.
Speaker 1 Yeah, and so I think it just kind of fell off.
Speaker 2 You don't need nine apples.
Speaker 1
Which, you know, it's so crazy, and this is way above our pay grade. This is above our pay grade's pay grade.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 Why do the composition of fruit, like the sugar in fruit, change when you blend it into like a smoothie or like juice it into a juice? It's like, who told you to be that self-aware as a fruit?
Speaker 2 I feel like it loses nutrients when you...
Speaker 1 Yeah, how?
Speaker 2 I guess because the,
Speaker 2 oh my God, my brain just malfunctions. Like it gets pushed to get
Speaker 2 the fibrous.
Speaker 2 Like I like,
Speaker 2
oh my god, ow, something hurts. No, I hurt something in my head.
I pulled something in my fucking forehead.
Speaker 1 You glitched. And there was just a little bit of a drink.
Speaker 2 I literally glitched. I was just like, wow.
Speaker 2 Power down. Power.
Speaker 1
You know, so that, like, because I would drink a smoothie every single day, but I just feel like they're not actually good for you. No, it's dessert.
And I'm already so, I eat way too much sugar.
Speaker 2 Like, I love sugar.
Speaker 2 I love a banana strawberry smoothie, but my, like, trick is to throw peanut butter in it because then it tastes like a fucking cookie and turns out you shouldn't be having like tons of peanut butter every day in your smoothie like wait also also turns out that you that acai bowl is like not that good for you okay then stop marketing them with the other healthy bullshit
Speaker 2 why is a girl wearing a sports bra holding the acai bowl if it's ice cream
Speaker 2 literally why is it in the equinox why is It's a hot fudge. It's a hot Sunday.
Speaker 1 It's a hot fudge Sunday.
Speaker 2
The peanut butter I'd get in those, I love that shit. No, I fucking love that.
And don't they? They put cacao nubs on it? Cacao nibs? That's chocolate, babe. You're just
Speaker 2 chocolate. That's chocolate.
Speaker 2 And acai.
Speaker 1 Just because that chocolate is like European does not mean that you can't set boundaries.
Speaker 2
Just because it's crushed up differently, it's the same. It's the same.
So, anyway, we're just warning you guys: don't be tricked.
Speaker 1 Like, don't get tricked. I don't know how we got here, but I do want to speak on something.
Speaker 2 Yeah.
Speaker 1 The Justin Bieber album.
Speaker 1 Have you listened?
Speaker 2 So, I
Speaker 2 did listen, but it was like in a car, and the car was kind of loud and it was kind of low. So, I didn't have like the right experience.
Speaker 2 You know, when like it wasn't ideal.
Speaker 1
Totally. No, I totally get it.
I feel like, one, I think it's amazing. I love it.
Like, I think every song is so good.
Speaker 1 And I think that the people, some people that are hating on it are millennials that, like, and I'm a millennial. I love being a millennial.
Speaker 1
I think that wanted like his dance music that he did when he was like 13. And I don't want that Justin Bieber.
Like, I love this new era, new vibe.
Speaker 2 I'm obsessed with him. I think he's also like a genius.
Speaker 2 I do think this album is like really good Pilates music for like the beginning of the session when you're like you're getting into it and you need to get hyped, but you don't want to be like too pumped up.
Speaker 2 It's like perfect. Like daisies, yeah.
Speaker 2
And then and then you're getting the pelvis involved. Yeah.
And then you're lifting the glutes.
Speaker 2 Sorry, I've been doing a lot of Pilates lately.
Speaker 1 Oh my God. Wait, that you're really, you've been really describing things today that are just like spot on, I feel like.
Speaker 2 Wait, that's the nicest thing you've ever said to me. Because I actually think I'm bad at describing, I'm bad at words in general.
Speaker 2 But I'm working on it. Wait, but Justin Bieber also,
Speaker 2
this is the thing. I feel like real music people really like it.
But then there's like top 40 people who are like, where's the chorus?
Speaker 2 Because there's like totally and he's a chorus master like he can make anything sound like a bop So he almost like he's choosing to be like, let me take you on this lyrical journey.
Speaker 1
And I don't think I'm creative in a musical sense whatsoever. I'm simply just an observer of what I think sounds good to my ears or not.
Like, so I wouldn't know about a chorus or about.
Speaker 2 You just like the vibes.
Speaker 1 I like the vibes.
Speaker 2 Were you high?
Speaker 1 No.
Speaker 1
Okay. I know I've listened to it a lot.
Like, I've actively gone on my Spotify and played it.
Speaker 2 We don't talk about like how good his tone of voice is.
Speaker 1 No.
Speaker 2 And I'm not even being nostalgic. It just is a good voice.
Speaker 1 Well, and also like as his voice has changed, obviously like as he's gotten older, he's still like, it still sounds good.
Speaker 2 Yeah.
Speaker 2 Yeah.
Speaker 2 Speaking of boyfriends slash husbands,
Speaker 2 Des and I had an interesting moment the other day because he sent me something and I pulled it up on my phone and he was like.
Speaker 2 Why is my name Des Bishop in your phone? And I was like, that's your name. And he was like, you have my government name in your phone.
Speaker 2 And I was like, When I met you, I put your name in, and that's what happened. Yeah, and then he showed me his phone, and it's burn with like a heart
Speaker 2
because I think I put that in as that's how I did it, yeah. And he kept it, which is cute.
But this is the question: Is it psychopathic that I have my husband's government name? No,
Speaker 2 no, I think, look, that's your name.
Speaker 1 No, I have so many friends who are like married and and for like a couple years and I still have like Katie's boyfriend,
Speaker 2 Cam.
Speaker 1
And I'm like, like, I'm not changing that to his government name or like who, or like her husband. You know, like I feel like it's how you had it in before.
It's very nostalgic. Yeah.
Speaker 2
Yeah, that's fate. I agree.
Also. I've been dabbling with manifestation, as you know.
Speaker 2 Yeah.
Speaker 2
For years now. Yes.
And I wrote, I will pass my driving test like 400 times.
Speaker 2
I saw that. Because Coco Raff wrote, I will win the French Open.
And she did. And it's like pretty similar.
Speaker 2 So
Speaker 2 I realized if little ways of manifesting is to set your phone background to something that's like channeling like a mood.
Speaker 2 I think your phone background, because you look at your phone 8,000 times a day. Yeah.
Speaker 2 is a really good opportunity for manifesting.
Speaker 1 I agree with that.
Speaker 2
Like don't pick a bad color. Don't pick a bad bad image.
Pick positivity.
Speaker 1 I feel like also just like writing,
Speaker 1 you don't even have to write it 400 times, but if you have it in your phone somewhere and you've written it down, and you, I don't even feel like you have to go and look at it.
Speaker 1 Like, I feel like it just like that energy being with you.
Speaker 2 Yes. Love wins.
Speaker 1 So stupid. Love is literally all you need.
Speaker 1
Because I remember this is how I really got hooked on it. I one time like wrote down like things I wanted to manifest.
This was when I lived in like my first apartment.
Speaker 1 And I lived in that apartment for like five years. So when I finally moved, I found that piece of paper because it was like put in some random book.
Speaker 1 And when I looked at the piece of paper, I had done all of the things. But like I'd forgotten about that.
Speaker 1
I mean, I don't even know where it went. I really have changed.
And that's when I really like started getting hooked on it. And so then I would always write down what like my manifestations.
Speaker 2 Hooked on phonics. No.
Speaker 2 Do you know my brother used to call me that when I was in middle school? We just knew
Speaker 2 because I couldn't read.
Speaker 1 Oh gosh. No, the bullying was so
Speaker 2 important for my growing funny. No, it was so important.
Speaker 1 Not only was it important for my growth, but
Speaker 2
people who haven't been bullied are not like fully grown. Developed.
They're not developed. If you haven't been bullied, like, what have you dealt with in your life?
Speaker 2
And, like, bullied by like people who know you. I know.
I think. Like, they know.
Speaker 1 So it's really important to be bullied specifically by your siblings, I think.
Speaker 2 By someone that knows you in and out and can really find the.
Speaker 1 The root cause.
Speaker 2 Yeah, the root cause, the weaknesses.
Speaker 2 Right there.
Speaker 2 I don't want a random person telling me something that's not bullying. No, no.
Speaker 1 My brother has literally like
Speaker 1 in my literal, in my almost 33 years of knowing him,
Speaker 1 he has been able to like change the course of my life with one word.
Speaker 1 Like I've had boyfriends before.
Speaker 1 And like we'll be somewhere and my brother will like lock eyes with me across the room. He'll say one word and I will have to immediately break up with him
Speaker 1 the next day.
Speaker 1 So like, the bullying, it does not end, and I'm actually more thankful for it now.
Speaker 2 No, because he's a real one.
Speaker 1 Yeah, because he's like, if no one's gonna tell you, mom's not even gonna tell you. Guess what?
Speaker 1 Hey, guess what? Everyone in the family is too scared to tell you.
Speaker 1 Like, that's how most of my phone calls start out. I feel like with my brother, hey, guess what? Everyone's been talking about
Speaker 2 what we've got.
Speaker 1 The high council has come together and they've decided that you're done.
Speaker 2
You're done. You're done.
I do think what's interesting is we have the same family dynamic of a boy, a girl, and parents.
Speaker 2 And I feel like it's great because there's,
Speaker 2
I love that you can turn on anyone at any time. Like, we can all turn on dad.
Totally. We can do us versus the parents.
It can be the girls versus the boys.
Speaker 2 Like, there's so many good teams that can be built.
Speaker 1 You learn camaraderie camaraderie and you learn that life is ever changing.
Speaker 2
Alliances change in a second. Alliances change in a fucking second.
And then when the siblings turn on each other, that's when shit gets dark.
Speaker 2
Because you're not strong without each other. The parents, they normally have each other's back.
So when you lose each other, then it's haywire.
Speaker 1 Yeah.
Speaker 2 Then it's scary.
Speaker 1 I do think, obviously not that I'm a parent, but like my mom genuinely wouldn't let me and my brother fight for longer than like
Speaker 1 a couple hours or like a day. Like we never like ended the day fighting, you know? And I think that like is important for siblings.
Speaker 2 Yeah, I mean I feel like I never fought with my brother that much. He would just like, we'd be like annoyed.
Speaker 1 Gary would just like beat me up. But like we didn't like what were we fighting about? But that was, I think that's like important to me.
Speaker 2
I remember what we'd fight about Nintendo. Nintendo was the source of all our drama as kids.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 Because I would play Pokemon and there there was, this is the thing, look, I come from humble beginnings. God forbid we had two Nintendos.
Speaker 2 We had one Nintendo that we had to fight for every second of the day. And look, I was stronger.
Speaker 1 You know what's funny is like thinking about having kids now, what is
Speaker 1 How do as the parent, how do you know what the cool toy is for that age group?
Speaker 2 Oh Cause yeah, you can't like ask what are the kids doing because they're like three and can't talk.
Speaker 1 Yeah, like, how do you know what to get?
Speaker 2 I guess you have to start.
Speaker 1 And you want to know what's crazy is like the toy stores aren't a thing anymore. Do you remember that, as like a child, going like the first time you ever
Speaker 1 could really remember going into like a big toy store that you were just like, What the fuck is this?
Speaker 2 Is Toys R Us gone? Gone.
Speaker 2
You have to find mom and pop shops now. It's AI now.
No, it's
Speaker 1 That is so sad to me. Like, I had to order
Speaker 1 a friend's kids' toy, and I was like, I guess I'll just get it on Amazon. Like, I don't know.
Speaker 2
And you, like, look at what chart's the highest. Yeah.
And honestly, kids' stuff does well, but that's what mommy vloggers are for, to be like, hey.
Speaker 2 Also, there are kids who are like really, really famous on YouTube. Like, a five-year-old boy is like hugely famous.
Speaker 2
All he does is like they put a toy in front of him, and he's like, he'll be like glad he'll get yes or no. And the toy companies will be like, no, Jeremy didn't like it.
We're fucked. We're fucked.
Speaker 1 No, I don't want to ever get into that world.
Speaker 2 One thing I do miss though
Speaker 2 is going with your friends to rent a movie.
Speaker 1 Yeah.
Speaker 1 That is like a very I think about that's probably one of the number one like nostalgic outings that I think about the most.
Speaker 2 Because you're like tonight's gonna be fucking crazy.
Speaker 2 And
Speaker 1 we're getting the Spice Girls movie for the 18th time.
Speaker 2
And it's going to be so fucking good. And one of us is going to fall asleep.
And the other one is going to fucking be awesome. And no one talks about how the
Speaker 1 Spice Girls movie actually never made sense.
Speaker 2 No. But do you heard they're like getting back together? Really?
Speaker 2
I don't know. Everything's AI nowadays.
No, I don't. Because you cannot trust anything you read in the media, including us.
Speaker 1 It takes me a little bit of time to introduce something into my routine, but something that I got the hang of really quickly was Symbiotica liposomal vitamin C.
Speaker 1 I started drinking them when we went on tour because the benefits were just too good to ignore. Collagen production, glowing skin, antioxidants.

Speaker 1 No.
Speaker 2 There's a reality show. Nelly and Ashanti are like together.
Speaker 1 I knew that.
Speaker 2 But and it's like a TV show about their relationship, like a Jessica Simpson Nicole Shay type thing.
Speaker 1 On what channel? Why is that?

Speaker 2 How did that not come across her desk? See, I'm the biggest Nellie Ashanti fan ever.
Speaker 1 Where is it airing?

Speaker 1 Yeah, like I'd love if they came out with like an album right now. Oh, imagine if they did a tour and it was just
Speaker 1 them.
Speaker 2

Have you seen Kesha's stuff? I haven't seen that. Our algorithms are so different.
So different.
Speaker 2 I want it on your algorithm.
Speaker 1 This is great. Wait, I'm going to Hannah's house in like a couple weeks for the weekend for like 10 minutes.

Speaker 1 That is a really good one because
Speaker 1 what does he have in common with you?
Speaker 1 Okay.
Speaker 2 Okay. First of all, he's from Queens.
Speaker 1 Oh, is he?
Speaker 2 So he's literally my alley, and he's a Zaddy, but like, I'm taking.
Speaker 1 Wait, you actually, you want to know something? His daughter, I've met a couple times.
Speaker 2 Really?
Speaker 1 She is, well, he,
Speaker 1
I think he used to have a house in Saratoga. So he was always, like, in Saratoga during the summers.
And she's, like, friends with one of my girlfriends. So I'd met her a couple times.
Speaker 1 She is the nicest person. I've like, every time I've seen her, she's always like been so nice and like remembered my name and like whatever.
Speaker 2 Well, after this pod, we'll find out if she's a giggler.
Speaker 1 She does the news in LA. She's on like their local news.
Speaker 2
Oh my God, I have to look into this Bobby Flay lore. But fun fact about Bobby Flay, he loves cats and he has his own cat food company.
He does.
Speaker 2 I didn't know that.
Speaker 2 And when I'm on the road and they don't have Netflix on the TV, I watch Beat Bobby Flay.
Speaker 2 as my comfort show.
Speaker 1 My favorite was when he was on Entourage.
Speaker 2 Oh my God. Was he good?
Speaker 1 Well, he was sleeping with Ari Gold's wife, and it was like, it was just a really good
Speaker 2 entage. I think he likes comedians, but he also might have seen
Speaker 2 that I'm fostering cats. Who knows? But
Speaker 2 I'm also...
Speaker 1 Maybe he's just a giggler and he loves our comedy.
Speaker 2 No,
Speaker 2 that's possible. Maybe he loves women in the arts.
Speaker 2
I love the food network. Like, I'm a real food networker nerd.
And also I watch HGTV sometimes. Like, bring back cable.
Speaker 1 Yeah, you love cable.
Speaker 1 Actually, in LA, I didn't watch any streaming networks because I was like, when I get home, I want to save all my shows for when I get home so I can just like binge like four hours of my shows.
Speaker 2 Wait, that's literally like when you have a meal and you only like one thing on the plate, and you're like, I'm gonna wait till the end to eat the good part of the plate.
Speaker 1 Daphne is being obsessed with me today.
Speaker 2 Like, she's love-starved.
Speaker 1
She's like, just keeps jumping on me. And, like, right now, she's just sitting on the ground and I'm petting her neck and she's purring if you haven't gotten a cat.
Let me what are you doing?
Speaker 2 Let me explain one thing about cats cats because I'm now fostering three new cats Are they gonna be there when I'm there? Yeah. Okay,
Speaker 2 two of them are shy One of them is the most outgoing cat I've ever met. Let me tell you this
Speaker 2 Dogs can never this cat slowly comes up on my chest is staring me in the eyes like a human human. Like, you know, when your cat looks through your soul?
Speaker 2 Because, like, and you're looking at her, and I'm like, do I know you in a past?
Speaker 2 Yeah, I'm like, what are you trying to say? What do you want me to say?
Speaker 2 And I'm like, I will figure it out when you want.
Speaker 1 Hannah, why do I always think like my ancestors are trying to tell me something through Daphne?
Speaker 2
No, because cats are spiritual. Yes.
But I think they're actually just like looking at my eyelashes and thinks, think it's a spider or something when I'm blinking.
Speaker 1
No, we need the pet psychic. Like, we needed the pet psychic yesterday.
We need
Speaker 1 the only guest we're ever having on the pod again is a pet psychic, and we need her.
Speaker 2
Okay, we'll get her. Any recommendations, please send.
Um,
Speaker 2 oh, one thing about dogs.
Speaker 2
Now, look, I love all animals. I love dogs.
Barking is insane.
Speaker 1 Yeah.
Speaker 2
Imagine, this is what barking is. If I'm a human, this is me.
You're having a conversation with someone, I just start going, hey, hey, hey, hey.
Speaker 1 well it's so male coded also
Speaker 1 why are you yelling it's like just because you're louder doesn't mean you're right
Speaker 1 just because you're taking up more space doesn't mean your idea is the best idea oh you're scaring me you're so scary
Speaker 2 the fact that they bark is like should be illegal it's noise pollution And then some people who have barky dogs start to have that thing where they stop hearing it, where you're like, your dog's yelling.
Speaker 2 And they're like, okay, stop. I don't hear it.
Speaker 2
And then they're having a normal conversation. I'm like, I'm sorry.
I can't think when your dog is yelling.
Speaker 1
Here's the thing. All dogs to me, I feel like are kids.
Like, I'm like, oh, you have like kids. Where cats are young women?
Speaker 2
And when they do meow, like, they don't even want to. It's like, because they have to.
They're like, meow.
Speaker 1 Like, I was trying to tell one of my friends, like, the difference between having a dog and a cat. And I was just like, You
Speaker 1 own your dog, like, your dog is in a cult, and you are the dog's leader, and it literally will do anything.
Speaker 2
And you're like, responsible for it. Like, every second, the dog's like, what are we doing? And you're like, I don't know, I don't know.
I didn't.
Speaker 1 And I'm like,
Speaker 1
I do not own Daphne. She simply lives in my home.
She pays her rent on time.
Speaker 2 What am I playing for? She has things to do.
Speaker 1 So who am I to mess up her day or her schedule when, like, hello?
Speaker 2 She, like,
Speaker 1 what does she bring to the table? She is the table.
Speaker 2
She is a table, a marble table escape. Um, one of my favorite jokes is the guy from Crashing.
What's his name?
Speaker 1 What's Crashing?
Speaker 2 It's like a TV show, Crashing Show.
Speaker 2 Pete Holmes.
Speaker 2 He has the funniest joke where he was like, Cats are like
Speaker 2 sea list celebrities in your house.
Speaker 2 Yes.
Speaker 2 Where you're like, yes.
Speaker 2 You're like, is that?
Speaker 2 Do we have a cat? Is that Heidi Montech?

You might get a photo. You might not.
And it depends on her mood.

It's mango pineapple refresher with green tea. That's what I'm drinking.
Speaker 1 My refresher. See, I go like a rogue.
Speaker 1 What did you get? No, like you, because you can like add different things and like really make it your own. So like I don't think I've ever drank the same
Speaker 1 concoction that I've come up with. This one right now is
Speaker 1 strawberry, dragon fruit, tropical guava, green tea, and then like raspberry, something else.

So I saw one of my family friends, this woman who said, you know, she loves Giggly Squad.
Speaker 2
She loves listening to it. And she was with her 14-year-old daughter.
And I made a little joke like, do you let her listen to it? And she was like, not really.

Speaker 2 And then I just hang out with teenage girls all the time. And we talk about our acne
Speaker 2 and learning to drive
Speaker 2 and our road tests.
Speaker 1 Wait, we're having a high school summer.
Speaker 2 High school summer summer.

Speaker 1 You know, it's like we literally can't stop peeing because that's seven, but we're like, we're just like going, running an errand.
Speaker 2 I'll wake in. I'm going to be like, do you need to grab milk?
Speaker 2 Did you run out of hair ties?
Speaker 2 Do you want to get a hair tie with me really quick?
Speaker 1 No, I'm obsessed with high school summer.

But oh my God.
Speaker 1 I mean, oh, I'm never getting in the car with you.
Speaker 2

Speaker 1 No. I don't want your life in my hands.
Speaker 1 I'd have to look away.
Speaker 2 No, I don't want your life in my hands. I also don't want...
Speaker 2 That's like too intimate.
Speaker 1 I'd have to sit in the back seat.
Speaker 2 No, we sit in the back seat and let like Des drive.
Speaker 1 Yeah, perfect.
Speaker 2
Wait, that's so weird. One of us is not sitting in the front with Des.
That's weird. We're going full Uber.
We're in the back.
Speaker 1 I was wondering, should we bring Grace? Or is that like HR? She doesn't want to.
Speaker 2 We can, but she might be with her family, which is like kind of rude.
Speaker 1 See, my grace, my grace is, we're her family.
Speaker 2 See, if we want to be a real cult, we have to start getting her away from her family. That's like rule number one of cult.
Speaker 2 So we're like failing. We have to like make up a story of why she can't go to her, see her family.
Speaker 1 She's to work.
Speaker 1 She literally has to work.
Speaker 2 I just see us sitting in the back of the car and Desby, like, are you guys hungry? And we're like, yeah. Yeah.
Speaker 2 Where can we? I'm hungry now, though.
Speaker 1 Like, where's the silence button? Are we there yet?
