Speaker 3 Manifest that shit.
Speaker 3 We can't be managed.
Speaker 2 I mean, the day just
Speaker 1 got away from me.
Speaker 3 Guess who's back? Guess who's back? Guess who's back? Paige is only letting me sing because she missed me so much.
Speaker 2
I, it really feels like a month. Like, it was one week we didn't do it.
And I'm like, I'm foaming at the mouth.
Speaker 3 The mouth. What's that TikTok? Did you guys miss me? Because I missed you.
Speaker 2 I also feel like throughout my weeks, I'm like, oh my God, I can't wait to tell Hannah this. Or like, I cannot wait to talk to Hannah about this.
Speaker 2 And then I get on the pod and I'm like, I forget everything.
Speaker 3 you just blank because you get so excited you're like that kid who's trying to tell a story and you're like and then this one time and and then they and then they went and then but um the truth is is I realized it's like a purge every week for us so like if we don't get that day of the week to purge everything it starts it bottles up
Speaker 3 I'm not okay
Speaker 2 Okay, it also makes me realize that I like if you died
Speaker 2 like I don't have a single other person in my life that I have the relationship with you, like, the way I do with you. Like, if you just, like, disappeared, I'd be like,
Speaker 2 they'd have to commit me because I'd be so bottled up with things.
Speaker 3
You don't have a healthy outlet. I don't have a healthy outlet.
But I'd also argue that the things that we're like, we need to say stuff on Giggly Squad, none of them are important.
Speaker 2 No.
Speaker 2 Not a single one.
Speaker 3 My first note that I have for this week is French is for girls.
Speaker 3 And where's the lie men should not speak French French is only a language for girls men do not say genes qui that is a French girl word and honestly if like your man says do you want to go to Paris gross it has to it has to be you giving him that information and then him being like yeah we can go you have to trick him to go to Paris yeah like him coming up with the idea to go to Paris even him saying like jean mappel by the way I don't know how to speak French Because basically, I wanted to learn French, but then Des was like, should I learn it too?
Speaker 3 And I was like, oh, no.
Speaker 3 No, I got the ick.
Speaker 3 I was like, you could learn Italian or Spanish.
Speaker 2 When I was like, when I was centering men in my life a couple of years ago,
Speaker 2 I took the French class of 2016 that literally haunts me for my life.
Speaker 2 I started taking this French class because this guy I was dating told me I was not impressive because I didn't know another language.
Speaker 3 Wait, did you go in person?
Speaker 2
Sure fucking did. This was pre-COVID.
This is like things were in person. I went to like four classes of this French class and I was just like, I don't even like this guy that much.
Like
Speaker 3 did you like go to the restaurant and you were like, oh, like, c'est la vie?
Speaker 2 I learned how to ask for the check. And that's the only thing I retained.
Speaker 3 Wait, a man said you're not impressive. Also, look, you fucked with like the wrong finance bros.
Speaker 2
I think about that guy all the time. Or not that guy.
I think about that that moment all the time. Like you're just like not that impressive.
And I was like, pardon?
Speaker 3 But do you realize that's because he's insecure about himself?
Speaker 2 Yeah. I wanted to send him my time, the Time 100 thing, but I think I'm blocked.
Speaker 3 Also, men blocking women? Not a thing. Men are not allowed to block women.
Speaker 2 No.
Speaker 3 That's petty ass behavior for women to do to other men or other women who have wronged them. Yeah.
Speaker 2 I want to go on, if I want to date you, I want to go on on your Instagram and I want to see like that you didn't post for like a whole year. Oh, a hundred percent.
Speaker 3 You know, I want you to ask me how to post an Insta story.
Speaker 2 Yeah, like, how do you add sound? I want him to be like, if you, if I wanted to add sound, how would I?
Speaker 3 If a man knows how to add the location and then change the font of the location sticker, I'm out.
Speaker 2 Yeah.
Speaker 3 I'm out. I love breaking up with imaginary relationships while I'm married.
Speaker 2 Well, I would say you live through me at least.
Speaker 3 Yes.
Speaker 3 No, fully. I'm like, I I can't do this anymore.
Speaker 3 Last time people saw of us together was Time 100.
Speaker 2 Yes.
Speaker 3 I was obsessed with your fit.
Speaker 3
You're going in the high fashion direction that I want my Barbie doll to go in. Thank you.
Thank you.
Speaker 3 Yes or no? Are you annoyed that all day I send you vintage products that I can't wear?
Speaker 3 and I send to you to get.
Speaker 2 No, I don't get mad at them at all.
Speaker 3 Have you purchased any?
Speaker 2 uh i think so okay good
Speaker 2 not recently i haven't no okay we don't need that
Speaker 2 but in the but like in the course of you sending me things have i ever purchased something from something you've sent me yes actually i'd even go as far to say the other day i did an amazon live for prime day and
Speaker 2 your super bowl my outfit literally my i kept getting comments like your outfit is so hannah coated
Speaker 2 and this is a compliment to you because when when I saw the outfit on Amazon, I go, oh my God, that's so mew mew.
Speaker 2
But like it's Amazon and it was like this striped little set. Honestly, you would look adorable in it.
I'm going to send you the link.
Speaker 3 Well, we are merging into the same person. We are.
Speaker 2 Like, I don't do my hair anymore.
Speaker 3 Welcome to the dark side.
Speaker 2 I'm literally an air dry queen.
Speaker 2
I'm an air. Here's my method.
I'm an air dry queen, and then I throw a little Treseme hairspray.
Speaker 3 Yes.
Speaker 2 Then I do a little, um,
Speaker 2 what brand is it? It's like a, it's like a salt spray.
Speaker 2
I want to say it's whey. I want to say it's like a salt texture spray.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 And that's it. And then I'm like, hello.
Speaker 3
Wait, so you're just like not like on other girls and like laid back. You're like low maintenance.
Would you call yourself low maintenance now?
Speaker 3
You're some look can we say for spay to spay what's happening? You're tan, so you can look hot doing anything. If you were pale, you would need to get three hours of glam to go outside.
Yeah.
Speaker 3 That's where we're at.
Speaker 3 Also, I do think, like, first of all, frizz in the summer is a thing. You can either fight it or be one with it.
Speaker 2 Lean in.
Speaker 3 Lean in. Also, if it's at the top of my head, I can't see it.
Speaker 2
No. And again, the back of our head is really none of our business, but I want to say it's pretty wavy back there.
Remember when I was convinced I had curly hair?
Speaker 3 Yeah, you were going through something where you were like, can you treat me differently? I'm a curly-haired girl.
Speaker 2 Like, respect my straw. Well, okay.
Speaker 3 You gaslit yourself.
Speaker 2 Look at that piece.
Speaker 3 That is curly.
Speaker 3 It's wavy.
Speaker 2
It's wavy. Yeah.
Okay, anywho, none of this was even on the freaking docket.
Speaker 3 Well, let's be honest, we never could get to anything on the docket.
Speaker 2 Okay, so we're at the time party.
Speaker 3 Yeah.
Speaker 2
First of all, we couldn't believe that we were even on the list. Let alone like did the photo shoot, did the interview.
Like it was just all very surreal.
Speaker 2
So we get invited to this cocktail party, and we're getting our outfits, we're very excited. And I am a well-trained cocktail party goer.
I know the exact timing that I take my beta blocker
Speaker 2 where I'm going to arrive to said cocktail party. So, we do our pictures, we do the little like step and repeat, we're upstairs,
Speaker 2 we're at the time where you're done mingling and you're gonna get a cocktail.
Speaker 3
And the bar is crowded. The bar is crowded.
It's not easy easy to get the cocktail.
Speaker 2 Would you like to proceed from here? Because this is your story to tell.
Speaker 3 Well, I have to say when I get to a party, I enter hot. Like I'm saying hi to everyone physically and emotionally.
Speaker 2 I was going to say and physically.
Speaker 3
Immediately my temperature rises. Yes.
And I picked my dress, the white Versace.
Speaker 3 Mm-hmm.
Speaker 3
Mainly because it's beautiful, but also because I'm like, I could sweat through this and no one would know. Yeah.
I had another dress I really liked, but I was like, this is going to be a nightmare.
Speaker 3 Because then you just become the sweaty girl that everyone remembers you as, which is fine. I've been it before.
Speaker 2 Don't put me in a box.
Speaker 3
I just don't like to be typecaster all the time. So we get there.
We run into Taylin Biggs.
Speaker 2 Yes.
Speaker 3 Miss Taylin.
Speaker 2 No, she's just
Speaker 2 so freaking cute. I mean, I can't.
Speaker 3
Well, she walked up to you like, Paige, and you were like, you look gorgeous. And she was like, thank you.
And then I was like, hey, it's Aunt Hannah.
Speaker 3
And you were like, isn't Aunt Hannah silly? And I'm like, look at me, look at me. And she's like, I'm literally 11 years old.
And like, I don't understand the sense of humor.
Speaker 2 No, she is.
Speaker 3 No, she's 13. She owed it.
Speaker 2 No, I think she's like 11 or 12.
Speaker 3
I think she's 11 or 12. She's so cute, so sweet.
I can't imagine. Like, she's going through the same stuff we are at that time party.
Speaker 2 She has a better career than us.
Speaker 3 No, I was like, what are you talking to people about? She's like, I'm networking. Leave me alone.
Speaker 2 i was like no literally she's just kidding she's a little professional she's so
Speaker 2 but here's the thing that is so amazing about her she is a little professional and it's almost like this is her like after-school activity she is still very much a innocent little girl like she still is a little girl well yeah you know like to go full disney no she's like it's and it's like very endearing you know like everything she's doing is like fun for her yeah i did talk to her i was like do you enjoy interviewing?
Speaker 3
Because I love interviewing people. Yeah.
And she was like, I love it. It's my passion.
And I was like, good.
Speaker 3 Because I have that like tennis PTSD where if I see a kid who's like really good at something, I'm like, are you enjoying it? Or is someone forcing you? Yeah. Are you happy?
Speaker 3 She was like, Hannah, I'm networking. Can't deal with this right now.
Speaker 2 She was you're on my hair. Can you please get up?
Speaker 3
No, she looks so cute. And then we said hi to like our peeps.
And then the heat started to hit me in particular. And I I looked at you, and I was like,
Speaker 3 it's very hot. It's 85 degrees.
Speaker 2 And I wasn't really like, I was beta blockered up. So
Speaker 3 you go, I took a beta blocker, and I was like, you looked at me, you looked me up and down. You go, you didn't?
Speaker 3 Left me for dead.
Speaker 2 I was like, why are you freaking out? Did you not medicate before we arrived? And you were like, I literally forgot.
Speaker 3 You know, I'm actually, I'm not that bad with those social events. I'm more bad at like a
Speaker 3 group dinner.
Speaker 2 Yeah. You're bad at a more intimate setting?
Speaker 3
Like that middle intimacy. Like if it's with two people, I'm great.
If it's with 500 people, I'm great. But if it's like seven,
Speaker 3 I don't know the rules.
Speaker 2 See, the time party is my exact.
Speaker 2 Like if it's like 150 people on a rooftop, I'm anxious.
Speaker 3
See, low-key, I thrive because you, you're just running around. Hi, hi, hi, hi.
You're running around. My problem was temperature.
Speaker 3 So long story story short, we eventually lock eyes and you're out to lunch. Who knows? You are Hezekiah.
Speaker 3
You're in a happy place. You're in a place.
I'm literally, I'm taking pictures.
Speaker 2 I'm meeting people.
Speaker 3
I'm networking. People are just...
putting cameras in front of your face and you're just smiling. I'm smiling.
Speaker 2
I'm posing. I'm literally, I'm never in this mood.
I'm having a great time. I'm actually in my head thinking, I might get a cocktail at this event.
Speaker 3 Like, I'm having a
Speaker 3 point where I was like, water?
Speaker 3
I was struggling. I'm freaking out.
I look at you. You're calm.
A little too calm. A little eerily calm.
And I go, I think, I think it's time we should get out of here. And you don't hear me.
Speaker 3
So I'm like, did you hear me? So I repeat it. I'm like, we should leave.
You still don't respond because you're literally, who knows what you're thinking about. And I go, look at me.
Speaker 3 Do you want to leave?
Speaker 2 And you go, oh my God, of course.
Speaker 2 The only thing better than having a good time is leaving. So, like, I could be having a great time, but if someone says, hey, let's get out of here, I'm like, that's
Speaker 3
also, I like to leave on top. I'm not leaving on a low.
I'm not having an awkward conversation than getting out. I'm getting on a high.
I'm having such a good last sentence with a group.
Speaker 3
Everyone's laughing. I go, that's my time.
Thank you so much. I'm here till Wednesday.
Get in the elevator, get out.
Speaker 3 So I don't have to think about anything I said that might be going around the party at this point.
Speaker 2 Best idea wins.
Speaker 2 And that night, it was your idea, and that was to leave. And so literally, everyone's leaving like this one area to go to like this other area where like the bar is really popping off.
Speaker 2 And our Irish exit was actually in one of the top five Irish exits I've ever done in my life.
Speaker 3 I've ever seen in history.
Speaker 2
As we're walking by the elevator, one magically opens. We pop our bodies right in there.
We say, sir, press that button as fast as you can.
Speaker 3 We felt like spies. Like, we talked with our eyes the whole time.
Speaker 3 We were like, sir, get us home. You didn't see anything.
Speaker 2 We are very honored to be on the list and invited to the party. Thank you so much.
Speaker 3
We had so much fun. There were so many amazing people from like so many different entertainment areas.
It was just very cool. But I just said New York City in the summer is not for the week.
Speaker 2
It's absolutely not. And those rooftops, like you think because you're outside and you're on a rooftop, you're getting ventilation.
You're not. No.
The air is not flowing, it's stagnant.
Speaker 3 Because all the air is getting sucked up by other succubuses because there's 200 people and everyone's fighting over the same air.
Speaker 2
And everyone's just everyone's full glam, so no one wants to come super close to you because you're sticky. And then like everyone's glowing.
Yes. Because they're so hot and sweaty.
Speaker 3 Also, it's one of those things where I've...
Speaker 3 saw so many people that like I know online and I message a lot of people like once you message someone once you're best friends right yeah isn't that the rule so then I was obviously forgetting if I met them in person or not.
Speaker 3 And that I had that same conversation like eight times, and I was like, okay, we gotta go. We gotta go.
Speaker 2 You want to know why else I was calm? I had gotten the shot before we got there.
Speaker 3 Well, you did a whole ice cream photo shoot, and that's what it was.
Speaker 2 And that's, and I just realized that. Wait, I was going in with no pressure.
Speaker 3
For people who don't understand about Getty images, I'm gonna explain it to you right now. Because I didn't.
Now I do. So you get glam for like two to three hours, depending on who you are.
Speaker 3 And then you show up to an event. And I don't know about you, but I still like kind of shake on the red carpet.
Speaker 2 Every single time. I like forget how to pose.
Speaker 3 I'm like, why am I shaking?
Speaker 2 I literally look like a Lego square on every red carpet because I like forget to turn my body or put my hand anywhere.
Speaker 3 Well, because you also, they give you literally 22 seconds or less.
Speaker 2 Here's the other thing. So many people are watching you.
Speaker 3 Oh my God. If anyone watches me do anything, I'll forget how to speak English.
Speaker 2 Yeah, so I'm like, can you guys look away?
Speaker 3
No, you're like, can you guys stop? Well, someone got a video of me from the side. I don't know.
I was trying to like stick my chin out.
Speaker 3 Like, I looked insane posture from the side, but the front, it looks normal.
Speaker 2 And then you know the pictures are coming out and then you know people are going to be like, and that's what she chose to wear. You're like, so you can hear it in your head as you're doing it.
Speaker 3
You're like, everyone fucking hates this dress. And then it's over in a second.
And then you're like, they're like, thank you so much.
Speaker 3 I've walked off the carpet before and then like looked in the mirror and been like, oh, my hair is completely standing straight up.
Speaker 2 Because my dress wasn't pulled down.
Speaker 2 Yes.
Speaker 3 You get out of the Uber and immediately feel like go on the carpet and you're like,
Speaker 3 my belly button's sweating.
Speaker 3 But the stress is that, yeah, everyone sees these photos. And these photos then get picked up multiple times throughout the year whenever anyone wants to write a story about you.
Speaker 3
So it's not like they take a photo like a... and you never see it again.
Like this photo lives forever.
Speaker 2 And it's usually the worst one you've ever taken in your life.
Speaker 2 I'm not kidding.
Speaker 3 I have a photo from the first year of BravoCon.
Speaker 2 When no one warned us. In 2017, that haunts the fuck out of me.
Speaker 2 I know whenever someone writes a story about me and they don't like me because they use that photo and I'm like, oh, you're a fucking op.
Speaker 3 They came for you. Yeah.
Speaker 3 And it's funny because they take a bunch of photos, but they choose their favorite ones, which also, let's be honest, no one chooses the photos you actually like of yourself because everyone sees themselves in a weird way and that's just like our our our messed up psychology but you take these photos and then you can't enjoy the event because you're like checking to see when they go up to know if you wasted your entire day for a bad photo uh-huh uh-huh and that sounds so depressing to say but i need to i keep it real with you guys on giggly squad this is what's going on um in our heads but i actually liked my getty photo and i realized it's because i was tan you know what else i liked our getty photo together which rarely happens that's the thing the photos come in of page the photos come in in of me, the photos come in of us both.
Speaker 3 Sometimes one of us looks good, then it's a whole thing. Can I post those photos?
Speaker 3
Yeah. And I sacrifice myself sometimes.
You'd sacrifice yourself. You're very, you have done that before.
Speaker 2 You can see the level of connection you have with your friend based on when she sends, can I post this photo and how much your friend loves you or not, if she says yes or no.
Speaker 3 Because I will look at myself and be like, don't love that, but then I'll look at you and I'll be like, she deserves it. She just, she earned that one.
Speaker 3
That's so fucking true. But I also love that we still send to each other for approval.
Well,
Speaker 2 we're not monsters.
Speaker 3 You know, we're girls, girls.
Speaker 2 We're not just going to post.
Speaker 3 I hate when someone asks for approval and then when they post it, they've added like a strange filter on it. I'm like, nope, didn't approve that, that draft.
Speaker 2 Or I've seen photos where people like edit themselves and then not you. And I'm like, hey, throw a girl a teeth whitener once in a while.
Speaker 2 I mean, look at yours.
Speaker 2 Look at mine.
Speaker 3 Now I look like I am from England.
Speaker 2
Wait, I had such an interesting thing happen to me on Instagram the other day that's never happened, and I've always like wondered. I'm scrolling.
I'm just like doing my nighttime scroll.
Speaker 2
Nothing crazy. I see a picture.
I don't even, now I can't even remember who the picture was of. A celebrity, though, and a carousel of an outfit.
So I'm scrolling through the outfit.
Speaker 2 And like, I like to look at the comments to see like, where is certain things from?
Speaker 2 I saw someone that I know in the comments making a rude comment, and it's like seeing your teacher outside of school.
Speaker 2 Like, not that I really knew this person very well, but like, I recognized the name and I saw the profile picture, and I was like, oh, I know that person.
Speaker 2 And the comment was like,
Speaker 2 oh, I'm so annoyed that I can't think of who the celebrity was, was commenting on this celebrity's appearance.
Speaker 2 And I was like, oh my God, I immediately unfollowed the person because I was like, that's so weird. You're a person that comments mean things on people's Instagrams.
Speaker 2 And it's just never happened to me before where I saw like a legit person I knew and I feel it felt weird.
Speaker 3
I've seen that before where I'm like, oh, they have this whole side to them. Yeah.
That I didn't see. It's very jarring.
It's jarring.
Speaker 3 It also reminds me a little bit of like if I see someone come for someone on reality TV like super hard, like to the point that they're bullying them, I get, I'm like, guys, that could be you tomorrow.
Speaker 3 Let's, I, we have like a weird perspective because we've been on both ends. What did, what's the quote? You're sometimes you're the dog, sometimes you're the thing they pee on.
Speaker 2 You know, I'm not familiar with that one.
Speaker 2 But I'm going to choose to believe you because Marilyn Monroe said it.
Speaker 2 I mean, sometimes I've seen my girlfriends in the comments where they're like, where is this from? And I'm like, she's so cute.
Speaker 3 See, I'm that person that's like
Speaker 3
obnoxiously hype, where it's like, Hannah, calm down. Like, you don't need 800.
Like, if I was a guy, I'd be creepy. Like, why do you need 800 fire emojis at your friend's selfie?
Speaker 2 And, like, I sent you and said I was posting.
Speaker 3 Wait, I know. I have a new word, like, lingo for us in life.
Speaker 3
Gigglers, get your notebooks. Yeah.
Um, you know, when you meet someone, which this is like very common for you because you're a Scorpio, and their vibes are just off.
Speaker 3
Like, you're talking to people, and you can't figure it out. You just don't like them, and you don't know why, but it's definitely something.
The way I describe it now is
Speaker 3 sinister energy.
Speaker 3 Yeah, like I was describing actually a man from my past, and the girl's explaining, and they're like, How would you describe him? I was just like, sinister energy.
Speaker 3
And she's like, I know exactly what you're saying. It's just like something is fucking off.
And I love the word sinister.
Speaker 2 Okay, Our final episode of
Speaker 3 Henna Page, Try New Things.
Speaker 2 Is coming out, well, when you're listening to this tonight, when we, we do a psychic reading in it.
Speaker 2 And one of the things in the psychic reading that she says is like the past couple of months, I was having a hard time trusting my intuition, which I actually said to a therapist, like, I was like, I'm so good at like listening to my gut.
Speaker 2
And the past couple of months, I felt like I don't know. I can't listen to my gut.
Like, it's almost like it's not speaking to me.
Speaker 3 Literally,
Speaker 2 from the start of the summer, like not going back to reality TV, I feel like my intuition has almost been on another level.
Speaker 2 Like, to the point where I can walk into a room and not even look around the room and feel like the energy is sinister and be like, I have to move.
Speaker 2
Or, like, I have been in rooms recently where I'm like, I gotta go. I don't like it in here.
And, and it's so weird because I was like watching that, our clips, like back, and I felt that.
Speaker 2 Like, it's almost like I felt it come back. Like, I felt my gut come back.
Speaker 3 I feel like it's more than coming back. I feel like when you lose yourself and then you find yourself after losing yourself, it's so much fucking stronger because you're like, I'm not letting you go.
Speaker 3 And we know not to question ourselves now because we question ourselves for what? For what?
Speaker 2 If people think that I was narcissistic on reality TV I'd hate to for them to meet me today I'm obsessed with myself recently
Speaker 2 I've never been more obsessed with myself where like number one fan
Speaker 2 fan behavior like recently I've just been like oh my god good job
Speaker 2 to myself in my head I'm like even if it's like an outfit I'm like wait sick outfit like good job like you're being nice to yourself yeah like I'm being really nice to myself recently, I feel like.
Speaker 2 And I'm like, wait, I love
Speaker 3 my life. This is my life.
Speaker 2 I'm like, I'm having so much, I love my life.
Speaker 3 Mental health moment, sometimes I've actually had those moments in my darkest times where I like needed to be nice to myself or I wasn't going to make it. Yeah.
Speaker 3 And I've actually sometimes been my happiest during a time where like other people might think I wasn't because I literally like had to sit down and like actively
Speaker 3 be supportive because no one else was but then sometimes when things are going well for me is when I start to nitpick and I'll be like because I'm like bored and I'm like let's get mad at this mad at that yes but sometimes or like you do something and you're like well this actually could have been better about that yes because you're like taking things for granted where when you lose everything you suddenly like find gratitude again not to be like but anyway the ups and downs it's like just navigating your perspective on yourself.
Speaker 2 Well, also, I think I obviously went through such a, I'm going through such a transition period because before I left Summerhouse, I like made the decision that I wanted to leave.
Speaker 2 But in my gut, I was like, but how are you going to feel mid-summer when you're not filming and when it comes out and you're not on?
Speaker 3 You'll never know until.
Speaker 2 Truly, in my head, I was like, well, I won't know, and I'll have to deal with it then. And so, I think this summer, like, so many different things have happened.
Speaker 2 And I've just been like, wait, I think I made, I feel like I really did make the right decision for like my life overall.
Speaker 2 And I feel like that was part of like, no, you trusted your, your gut actually was right when you made the decision initially. And now you're feeling the benefits of it.
Speaker 2 And you're like, I'm like proud of myself for trusting my gut.
Speaker 3 I also think there aren't necessarily like right or wrong
Speaker 3
decisions. It's more that like when you say something with your chest.
and you fully commit to it, the universe responds to it.
Speaker 3 Like, I do think there's a version of you that if you didn't really believe it and half-ass left the show, you could be twiddling your thumbs right now and questioning it.
Speaker 3
But you fully committed, trusted yourself, and the universe is like, oh, let's go. Like, let's do what we do.
And now I'm going to do.
Speaker 2 And now I'm embracing my curly hair and like being and trying to stay tan till Thanksgiving. Like life is amazing.
Speaker 3 Okay, Paige, one thing I love keeping the gigglers abreast about. I've never said abreast before.
Speaker 2 It's an important vocab word.
Speaker 3
Is sales. Yes.
Sales are really important because I hate shopping and wasting money. I want to save money and that's why I'm excited to announce the Nordstrom anniversary sale.
Speaker 2
And sometimes I feel like people think like, oh, it's the summer. They're having a sale.
They're getting rid of old stuff. No, no, no, no, no.

Speaker 3 Now I'm enjoying finding like high-quality items on sale. That's like my thing.

Speaker 3 Are One Piece bathing suits in?
Speaker 2 I think always.
Speaker 3 You love a One Piece.
Speaker 2 Wait, can we talk about my White Lotus look just for like a quick second?
Speaker 3 Yes, that's actually, I think, what inspired that note.
Speaker 2 Okay, so I was watching White Lotus, and when that episode came out, the girl, I think her name was Chloe in the show, she had this outfit on.
Speaker 2 I literally took a picture of the TV screen, put it into Google Images, and was like, I need to find all of this.
Speaker 2 Figured out that it was a custom Jacques Moose look so I was like oh he's definitely gonna make it for the masses he made the skirt in a version but it wasn't like to the floor and it wasn't like how she wore it on TV so I was like annoyed by him for that moment but
Speaker 2 whatever
Speaker 3 I digress
Speaker 2 so I like literally just found everything that looked similar through like a Google image search and then I got that hat in Italy when I was there like I saw it in the window and I was like that's I need that for my white lotus look which season from white lotus the most recent oh my gosh and then I saw Patrick Schwartz and Ager in the pool and I was just like you know what this is cosmic and you go somebody's gonna die and I'm like my look is amazing I think also with fashion and your conf like confidence is a thing too like if you wear something and own it versus like not really believe in it there's also a time I think where do you ever get you were stressed out like every outfit was like doomsday.
Speaker 3 Like fuck are people gonna hate it versus when you're in your power and you're like, these bitches aren't even ready for this fit.
Speaker 2
Well, I think I literally like exhibited that before I went to Italy. I was like, I have no outfits.
Like almost because I was like, people rag on me like so much sometimes for my outfits that I'm.
Speaker 2
In my head, I'm almost like low expectations. Like, oh, I don't have anything.
It's not good. Blew it out of the park.
And that was like me being like mean to myself. Yeah.
Speaker 2 But like while I was there, I was just having like the best time i've ever had there and i was just like leaning into my outfits i literally had a day where i was like dad i'm gonna put three outfits on and i need you to take my picture
Speaker 2 that was what i want to ask who is taking the photos my dad my dad is i have trained my dad like no other man actually a lot of my good pictures were taken on my g7x
Speaker 2 but My dad doesn't really love using the digital camera, you know, and I quote, he said, I can rapid fire better on the phone, so that's what I like to use.
Speaker 2 But I'm like, Dad, there's a certain aesthetic with the digital, and so it takes too long to click down the button.
Speaker 2 So he gets angry, but he gets the job done and he literally stays until the routine is finished. And I, his commitment is that's why I can't, I can't get married because
Speaker 2 whose commitment to the shot is ever going to be as good as his?
Speaker 3 No, what's Kim doing?
Speaker 2 Honestly, you want to know what? Kim weaponizes
Speaker 3 her incompetence.
Speaker 2 I know that bitch couldn't get it, but she rather say, oh, your dad likes doing it.
Speaker 3 Your dad can do it.
Speaker 2 And it's actually, this is a perfect example of if you work harder, you actually get the job rather than someone who might be more qualified.
Speaker 3 And you know what? Gary believes in himself. I don't know why or how, but he does.
Speaker 2
And he tries and tries again. And it's gotten to the point where I can use lingo.
I'm like, it's too much headroom. And
Speaker 3 you go, make sure the light's hitting my left cheekbone.
Speaker 2
I'm like, you see how you're tilting? It's making me look shorter than I actually am. I'm going to need you to come up.
And so, like, he takes direction while you're, he's a full-on production team.
Speaker 2 He really is.
Speaker 3 And the TikTok with him really made me laugh.
Speaker 2 And he loves doing TikToks.
Speaker 3 Speaking of family,
Speaker 3 I
Speaker 3 get an email saying audition.
Speaker 3 And I was like, oh, I'm back in the game
Speaker 3 for Vera DeLeo.
Speaker 2 You're a manager.
Speaker 3 And I, so my dream is obviously to make Nana a star.
Speaker 3 And
Speaker 3 I don't know how it happened, but it's like for a legit show on Netflix. And I so I start reading the description and it's like 80-year-old Italian woman.
Speaker 2 What, wait, what giggler is at Netflix? It's like, I have the exact grandma.
Speaker 2 I saw the exact one.
Speaker 3
Somebody was like, get Hannah's contact because she's the manager. So I'm like, oh oh my god, this is amazing.
I click on the script and it's like paragraphs. Yeah.
Speaker 3 Which, you know, Nana had a stroke a couple years ago. Nana, I don't want to put pressure on
Speaker 3 her. Yeah.
Speaker 3
So I actually sat on it for like a day. I'm like, do I even want Nana to stress out? But then I'm like, whatever.
So I call her and she's like so calm. She's like, I'm ready.
Speaker 3 And I'm like,
Speaker 3 so you're going to like, you want to practice with me and stuff? And she's like, I'll see you tomorrow. We'll film it.
Speaker 2 She memorized it.
Speaker 3 She memorized, but we also use like a little script to help her read it. Yeah.
Speaker 3 She sits down, so calm.
Speaker 1 She's a star.
Speaker 3 Embodies this. Like, it was.
Speaker 2 Like, you wanted to cry. You almost cried.
Speaker 3
I was like, how did you get that Brooklyn accent so good? Like, she was. I wanted to cry.
Like, obviously, it's very hard to book things.
Speaker 3 So I'm not saying she's going to book anything, but I'm just so proud of her.
Speaker 2 Okay, here's, but here's the other thing. What a core memory for her, even doing it with you.
Speaker 2 Like, even filming it and getting, and the fact that her granddaughter is in a position where she's getting these emails, like that alone, it's like she did it.
Speaker 3 Well, Nana, her whole thing, she loves Hollywood.
Speaker 3 And I feel like she always wanted to be a part of Hollywood, but her life just went a different way. But she dressed like she was a Hollywood starlet.
Speaker 3 And she showed me every Mary Monroe movie, Esther Williams, singing in the rain, Frank Sinatra. Like, that's how I was raised with this, like, love.
Speaker 2 Glamorous.
Speaker 3 Yes. So then for, at 84,
Speaker 3 for her to have her first audition, like, guys.
Speaker 2 No, that's nice.
Speaker 3
Life is crazy. Crazy.
You can start an acting career at 84. So Nana, she's going to be booked and busy.
Speaker 3
But the best thing is, she goes, I'm like, when can you come over? She goes, I'm getting my hands on. Yeah.
At noon. Because my hair looks horrible right now.
Speaker 3
I'll come over at 1.30 and we'll shoot it. I said, get your glam done, Nana.
Get your glam done.
Speaker 3 So I'm, shout out to Nana. I'm so proud of her.
Speaker 2 I'm so proud of her.
Speaker 3 So if you are listening, Netflix, Booker.
Speaker 2 One more thing I was going to say about Italy, because you know how like certain inside jokes will like happen on a trip and then like they last the trip.
Speaker 2 That's like I feel like the sign of a good trip.
Speaker 3 Yep.
Speaker 2 So true. And like at the end of our family trips, we always go around and say like, okay, what was your favorite part of the trip? And like it's unanimous.
Speaker 2 It's always like something my dad has done on the trip or like something he said. And my brother's girlfriend is like a pure angel.
Speaker 2 And I knew that he was going to be like obsessed with her on this trip because she could speak Italian. And so like he,
Speaker 2
him and I also figured out that he has anxiety. I digress because he won't like say the word anxiety, but when he's ordering something, he gets nervous.
Like, okay.
Speaker 2 You know, we'll dive into it. Why are you holding my hand when we're back in america but this is a pretty big sign
Speaker 2 i'm just sitting at dinner like rocking back and forth like oh no you're perfectly normal he's like freaking out about to order so he's like really would like just like hit her on the arm and be like you know do it like i'm nervous whatever so the one day we're at breakfast and my brother's girlfriend is not she's not like super health conscious, but she's like a normal girl.
Speaker 2 Like the one day she was like, I can't eat anymore. Like I have to have like a yogurt.
Speaker 2 So we're at breakfast and she puts in her dish like yogurt, some fruit, a little granola, and then chia seeds.
Speaker 3 She's going sweet.
Speaker 2 Yeah, she's going, just she's just having a little parfait.
Speaker 2 And we're all watching my dad watch her make this yogurt parfait.
Speaker 2 Whilst on his plate, he's got cut up tomatoes, proshute, and mozzarella cheese at 9 a.m. Okay.
Speaker 2 So he's looking at her almost like in disgust,
Speaker 2 and he goes, and so her final topping was chia seeds, and he's never seen that in his life.
Speaker 3
He has no idea what a chia seed is. He goes, that's made up.
That's a made-up thing.
Speaker 2 And so he looks at her and he goes, What is that? And she goes, Oh, these are chia seeds. Like they're really good for X, Y, and Z.
Speaker 2 My dad responds to her and he goes, Yeah, I had a hamster one time ate shit like that.
Speaker 3 Tell her how you really feel, Gare.
Speaker 2 For the entire rest of the trip, anytime anyone would say anything, we'd say, yeah, I had a hamster with shit like that.
Speaker 2
That is so funny. No, it's so good.
But my brother's girlfriend is literally obsessed with my dad, and all we did was make fun of him the whole time.
Speaker 2 But it was just one of those jokes that like will live on.
Speaker 3 No, that can bring a family together. A broken family can become a home again.
Speaker 3 no it literally like unite nothing unites a family more than picking on your dad or your mom like my dad is literally like the funniest person i know and he loves a callback yeah and he can make like anything funny and recently he does this thing i think it's a seinfeld reference you know when like you just don't even know where things started but it's become a thing yeah so if you're like in a house and like there's a weird sound there's an awkward moment where everyone's scared my my dad will just go
Speaker 3 my dad will just go mr. peoples
Speaker 3 so literally whenever there's like an awkward moment or any quiet he just goes mr. Peoples
Speaker 3 no you are your dad so I was literally watching Des's brothers play tennis and this is my problem I'll do inside jokes without reading the room.
Speaker 3 I'm sitting next to Des's cool nephew and they're like arguing over a point and it's like getting quiet and I just go Mr. Peoples
Speaker 3 And did anyone say anything?
Speaker 3
He's like, what does that mean? I'm like, I don't know if it's awkward or you hear a weird sound. Oh, yeah, I don't know.
There was a sound from the garage and Dad just goes, what was that?
Speaker 3 And I go, Mr. People?
Speaker 2 He's like, if my dad was here, he would have gotten it.
Speaker 3 No, but then Kieran started laughing and that's, as you know, enabling me. And once they get enabled, you can't stop me.
Speaker 3 So anyway,
Speaker 3 shout out to dads for like.
Speaker 2 Oh, shout out to dads everywhere, you know?
Speaker 3 Quick update. Speaking of dads, who I don't want to disappoint.
Speaker 3 My road test is officially on Friday.
Speaker 3 I had a therapy appointment this morning. What do you think I talked about the whole time?
Speaker 2
No, I literally texted Hannah. I was like, I can do the pot a little earlier if you can.
She was like, sorry, I'm in therapy.
Speaker 2 And then
Speaker 2 I have road test practice after.
Speaker 3
Last week, I was supposed to have a test with Greg. He called me.
He's on vacation, left me for dead. Starts freaking out.
Speaker 3 And then I'm like, okay, I'll drive with Des, which I don't, it tests your marriage.
Speaker 2 I mean, I could imagine.
Speaker 3 We lasted like a full hour, and then he was like, I need to go home. Like,
Speaker 3 this is, it's scary. Like, it's scary if I'm like having nervous moments.
Speaker 3 But I have another, I had a driving test, driving lesson yesterday, driving lesson today.
Speaker 3 And I was talking to my therapist because I said, if I fail, which is, let's be honest, 50-50.
Speaker 3 It's 50-50 at this point. I go, I feel like I'm going to disappoint the community.
Speaker 3 The community.
Speaker 2 No one gives a shit.
Speaker 3 Well, that's what she told me. She was like, if your friend is disappointed in you because you can't drive, I go, well, they already are.
Speaker 2 No, let's take this back as a minute.
Speaker 3 I just want to say I'm really hard on myself. And like, certain things, if I'm not confident in it, I get like so, like I have bad anxiety about it, basically.
Speaker 3 So Gary, me and you, we can hold hands, but I'm preparing as much as I can.
Speaker 2 Please don't blame us
Speaker 2
because we don't give a shit. It's really, you would be disappointing yourself because you feel like you've put the time in and the effort.
But if you fail, we don't care.
Speaker 2 I'd prefer you to fail because I actually don't think you should get a likeness at this point.
Speaker 2 If you haven't figured it out since now, I think you have so many other qualities. I'll drive your kids around because I'm actually nervous.
Speaker 3
Well, that's the thing. I'm like, if I fail, that means I have more work to do.
And I shouldn't be out in the streets outside.
Speaker 2 And you shouldn't be disappointed. You should just put pen to paper again and just like because it's not safe.
Speaker 3 Speaking of pen to paper, I'm going to get a notepad and I'm going to write, I'm going to pass my driver's test a hundred times. So that's what I'm doing this week.
Speaker 2 Speaking about bringing pen to paper,
Speaker 2 The discourse on the internet recently
Speaker 2
about everything anything mm-hmm. Let's bring back journaling.
Let's bring back bringing pen to paper. Let's bring back that's an inside thought like
Speaker 2 the outside thoughts have been getting insane.
Speaker 2 Well people get attention
Speaker 3 by saying whatever like
Speaker 3 The crazier the thought, the more views. And we're in this attention economy right now.
Speaker 2 Well, I think it was really, it was very interesting to watch people watch Love Island as like a Love Island fan for many, many years. And as someone who like
Speaker 2 just started watching Love Island USA and I'm in OG UK and even Australia
Speaker 2 to see how out it was it was so interesting to see how our country specifically could not handle it. Could not handle it.
Speaker 3 Can you tell me like what actually happened? I mean, no spoilers or spoilers.
Speaker 2 No, I'm going to be so honest. I fell off
Speaker 2 once I went to Italy because I was like, I'm on vacation. Like, I just, like, I got to go.
Speaker 3 I got distracted by pesto.
Speaker 2
No, literally. And once you miss three episodes, pack of money.
You're fucked. Unless you have a full day to dedicate it to.
Speaker 2 So I'm going to be honest, I fell off, but I knew enough to watch on TikTok that, like, I literally knew what was going on.
Speaker 2 So many different things that I think were just casting and production and like
Speaker 2 social media is so much now that it's like people are like, oh, you know, they're coming on just to be influencers. Yeah, no shit.
Speaker 3 Why they are influencers?
Speaker 2 Why the fuck else are they going on a reality show other than to change their life monetarily and not have to go back to their jobs? Yeah, why is that like so crazy for people to understand?
Speaker 2 But there weren't real love connections, which I totally understand the viewer being upset by that.
Speaker 3 Oh, so no one found love?
Speaker 2 I mean, not really, and not until like the very end. It just was a very unique season.
Speaker 3 I thought everyone loved each other in the beginning.
Speaker 2 Yeah, kind of.
Speaker 2 But it was just unique in terms of Love Island in general. Like the UK, I've never seen this in the UK, but it was truly because social media,
Speaker 2 people just couldn't handle it being every single night in life. I mean, the things that they were saying, this one girl came on.
Speaker 2 She came on as in like CASA, just like this blonde, normal girl, whatever. She had obviously had done a lot of plastic surgery in terms of like filler or like lip injections.
Speaker 2 By no means was this girl the craziest girl I've ever looked at in my life.
Speaker 2 But could you tell that she had had her lips done? For sure. Was she a cute girl? Yes, she was like a normal, cute little girl.
Speaker 3 Also, the majority of girls in that house probably have their lips done. Right.
Speaker 2 The way the people eviscerated this girl
Speaker 2 was
Speaker 2 so shocking and mind-blowing that I actually was like, We don't deserve Love Island. We actually don't deserve the show as a whole.
Speaker 3 It's fucking hunger games because you know what?
Speaker 3 It's at the point where these people do have power to become very wealthy, but they also can have their lives completely ruined.
Speaker 3 And there's been many trigger warning, like mental health issues and suicide that's come out of Love Island and reality TV in general. So with that said,
Speaker 3 the people feel like they're able to be like Caesar and give a thumbs up or a thumbs down to people that you see for 15 minutes on a show where the producers are trying to frame them into a character that fits with a storyline that they're not even, they don't even know about.
Speaker 2 No, Love Island, like
Speaker 2 production had to post every week, please be nice to the contestants, just to let you know they're not seeing any of this. When they get out, this is going to be very shocking for them.
Speaker 3 it also
Speaker 3 this is a hot take but I saw a lot of people like I guess Amaya ended up being like the favorite and people were like this is the girl we want to make rich this is the girl we want to make rich so mean to her so mean to her when she first got on in the beginning okay because that's where I was confused but then it's like the highs and the lows it's like whiplash because like
Speaker 3 As someone who's been on reality TV and you literally physically were there, when you're standing there with all these people, a lot of it's giving similar energy.
Speaker 3 These are just young people having fun. But then once the edit comes out, people are put as like
Speaker 2 different characters and different characters.
Speaker 2 As they should, because you're watching an entertainment show. Show.
Speaker 3 Yeah. Their job is to turn people hanging out into a story of some kind that has to involve ups and downs of villains and angels, whatever.
Speaker 2 But I don't, people are so loud and so wrong, too. It's also like, they're not editing the show.
Speaker 3 Like,
Speaker 2
people are like, I can't believe she said that then. It's like, she, like, it was a larger conversation.
What are you talking about? Like, they're not picking what's on the show.
Speaker 3 I used to love reality TV where, like, I love the entertainment of it, but I wasn't leaving feeling like
Speaker 3
pissed off at a character. Like, I was never mad at anyone.
Like, I was like, that was a great episode.
Speaker 3 Great. Another episode.
Speaker 2
And we grew up with Real Housewives of New York OG. Like, and we weren't leaving mad at them.
We were like,
Speaker 3
that's crazy night. That's a crazy night.
Yeah. That's crazy.
Vanda Punk rules. Like, you just appreciated the art form of it all.
Speaker 2
So the renaissance of it. Astasi slap is, it gives renaissance.
Like,
Speaker 2
and we heard around the world. And we weren't going to her and threatening her family.
Like, it was just like, oh, that was a crazy episode.
Speaker 2 And let's keep it moving because I have work in the morning.
Speaker 3 100%.
Speaker 3 100%. So
Speaker 3 I do think we have to appreciate the art form, but these poor people, I I think, you know what I think is going to happen? They're going to just have to start doing AI people on reality TV.
Speaker 3 And I'm telling you, it's going to be exactly the same.
Speaker 2 Wait, speaking of, I saw an article the other day, and it was like this influencer, like, did you see that?
Speaker 3 Yeah. No.
Speaker 2 And things need to be illegal.
Speaker 3 There's the internet is going to take us all down. And I'm saying that right now.
Speaker 2 Things need to literally be illegal. Like, they need to get a handle on AI before.
Speaker 2 I mean, you could make any video of someone saying anything. Yeah.
Speaker 3 The poor parents that are sending videos of, you know, cats flipping burgers thinking it's real, you know.
Speaker 3 But also,
Speaker 3 yeah, we're just in a very fucking strange place.
Speaker 2 It's strange.
Speaker 3 I love how we started so high and now we've gone so dark at the end. We're like,
Speaker 3 the world's going to end, but at least we have each other.
Speaker 2 Classic us.
Speaker 2 It takes me a little bit of time time to introduce something into my routine, but something that I got the hang of really quickly was Symbiotica liposomal vitamin C.
Speaker 2 I started drinking them when we went on tour because the benefits were just too good to ignore. Collagen production, glowing skin, antioxidants.
Speaker 2
If I'm having a panic attack, I want my skin to be glowing. Symbiotica only uses the best ingredients and the best flavors.
Their liposomal vitamin C is citrus vanilla and it tastes so good.
Speaker 2
I've actually even added it into my water bottle sometimes. I also love Symbiotica's sea moss pouches.

Speaker 3 Actually,
Speaker 3 I'm in the front seat anyway, so I don't know if that's true. Right.
Speaker 2 And I love the idea of getting a little suntan in the car.
Speaker 3 True. Like, let's be productive.
Speaker 2
Sitting there. I've actually truly have reverted back.
Since this is my first summer in so many summers, having like, I can do whatever I want. I've truly reverted back to high school summer page.
Speaker 2 All I care about is getting tan,
Speaker 2
wearing cute outfits, and like texting boys. Like, it's literally all I care about.
I'm like, what am I wearing this weekend? Like, what's my text back?
Speaker 3 You're like an alien that just discovered what summer is. Yeah.
Speaker 2 I'm like, wait, this is so, let's get a cocktail outside.
Speaker 3 I love how you never want to drink before and now you're like, should I party?
Speaker 2 Wait, I actually sent a message to a few people and I said, what are your thoughts on like doing like a day party situation one day this summer? Like going to like a day party place?
Speaker 2 And they were like, no, we're almost 40.
Speaker 3
That's crazy because I taught Des on Burnerphone this week what a Dardy is. He was like, you made that up.
And I'm like, it's a day party. Dardy, you never heard about Dardys?
Speaker 3 And then you fall asleep.
Speaker 2 You want to know what? That's probably a very millennial college show.
Speaker 3
So millennial. Oh my God.
Someone was at Wimbledon. One of my friends was at Wimbledon.
And I posted FOMO, but I put tennis balls as the O's. And then I screenshot it and I sent it to Grace.
Speaker 3 And I was like, am I in millennial jail?
Speaker 2 And she said, absolutely.
Speaker 3 She was like, I'm blocking her number.
Speaker 3
Oh, one more thing about Love Island. Yeah.
As someone who hasn't watched it, the heart rate challenge made me laugh, though, because I was like, what's heart rate challenge for millennials?
Speaker 3 Like, is it like when you see
Speaker 3 the dishwasher get too full and your heart rate goes up?
Speaker 2 Wait, you know, I had a very niche one today.
Speaker 3 What?
Speaker 2
It doesn't even have to be a doctor's office. honestly.
It was like a CVS.
Speaker 2 Whenever I have a missed call and like a voicemail for like something that I have to get like a prescription, I'm literally getting like a skin prescription.
Speaker 2 I'm getting tretinoin, back going back to tretinoin.
Speaker 2 I got a pimple injected the other day and I started doing laser genesis.
Speaker 3 What's laser genesis? That sounds like a
Speaker 3 lion.
Speaker 2 Hold on. We need to have a page.
Speaker 3 Sounds like a UFO.
Speaker 2 For the pages, listen up.
Speaker 3 Doodle on your notebook.
Speaker 2 Occupy yourselves.
Speaker 2 Okay, so I get a lot of messages from girls asking like what lasers I've done because we're so vocal about like not having Botox yet.
Speaker 3 I've never got one message like that. Continue.
Speaker 2 Right. So my one girlfriend
Speaker 2 sells pretty much all of the devices that go into dermatologists' offices. So like she'll always like send me like what she thinks I should do or like what dermatologist, whatever.
Speaker 2 So, I texted her the other day, and I was like, I have a pimple, and I need to go to a dermatologist immediately, if not sooner, tomorrow morning to get it injected.
Speaker 2
She was like, I literally have the perfect one for you. It's right by my apartment.
I go, she injects my pimple, and she's like, Let's start laser genesis.
Speaker 2
It's supposed to help with hyperpigmentation, building collagen, hydration, fine lines. It's supposed to be like everything before Botox.
Got it.
Speaker 2 You do a series of like, I think she said like six sessions, and she recommends doing a series of six sessions twice a year.
Speaker 2
So I'm starting with, I just did my first appointment. I go again in two weeks.
I
Speaker 2 think I did it once before, but I never like followed up and completed like all the sessions.
Speaker 3 Plan to stay out of the sun?
Speaker 2 No downtime.
Speaker 2 Zero.
Speaker 3 Like you get the laser and then you go.
Speaker 2 Same as like if you were
Speaker 2 like going about your day, like you're putting moisturizer on and sunscreen, but nothing like crazy. Pain level?
Speaker 2
Nothing. And I don't have a high pain tolerance.
I mean, I do when it comes to beauty stuff, but like if I can do it, it's fine.
Speaker 2 It's like a little hot, but it doesn't feel anything close to like laser hair removal.
Speaker 3 Yeah, I get my butthole lasered. I can't do it.
Speaker 2 Yeah, so you're fine.
Speaker 2 So I'm going to do that and let the gigglers know what I truly think.
Speaker 2 because I feel like I have a lot of brides in my DM that are like, Do you think you should do this before my wedding?
Speaker 3
Yeah, I also tried to do a laser like last year. I went and because I was trying to get Botox for my armpits and it didn't go through.
Anyway, and they were like, You should do this laser.
Speaker 3
And I was like, Let's do it. And they're like, Oh no, you have to like book that like next week.
And I'm like, I'm never going to see you again.
Speaker 2 It was probably laser genesis because I feel like everyone our age is doing it.
Speaker 2 Okay.
Speaker 2 But anyway, so I want to let the gigglers know that I'll let them know what I think because it is expensive.
Speaker 3 You want to make sure that you see effects from it.
Speaker 2 Yeah, and I feel like things are just like more expensive in New York City because
Speaker 2 it's so annoying. But it's definitely expensive, but we'll see if it's worth it.
Speaker 3
I have an astrologer update. No, sorry.
I have a psychic medium update. Okay.
I saw a psychic last week.
Speaker 3 Wait, you know you know i like to go on your schedule i just saw you on and i like to do it when you do it yeah i know so actually i talked to spirit tiff it's their spirit t-i-f-f she's amazing she's and she's also like she's gone to my shows we were just dming and she's like i haven't talked to you in a while do you want to have a reading and i was like i'll never say no to that yeah
Speaker 3 my grandpa came through
Speaker 3 I wanted to let you guys know, but some crazy shit happened. What?
Speaker 2 I can't believe we've been into the pod 52 minutes and you're just saying no, because my list was so long.
Speaker 3 Yeah.
Speaker 3 So she was like, oh, your grandpa loves like the room you're in right now because there's like a lot of sun. And like, I am in the sunroom.
Speaker 3 And like, the reason I love this place is because the sunroom reminds me of the sunroom that used to be in his house. Like, it has the same tile floors and like wood on the ceiling.
Speaker 3
And I was like, oh my God. And she's like, he loves your setup.
He loves it so much. And she goes, are there flowers to your right?
Speaker 3
No, sorry, flowers to your left. And I was like, oh, no, there aren't.
And she's like, there aren't any white flowers to your left. And I was like, no, maybe outside, but I don't see any.
Speaker 3
And she's like, he's pointing to your left. I'm seeing a white flower with yellow insides.
And I'm like, no. And then I look down.
Speaker 3 My punch needle.
Speaker 3 Oh,
Speaker 3 God. That I'm showing on the YouTube right now is white flowers with yellow inside that was on the the left of me and she's like he just wants to let you know he's here and he's guarding you
Speaker 2 and he loves your punching it all and he thinks you have issues because punch needling is fucking crazy that's so grandpa of him he's like wow look at that punch needle but like that was one of the craziest things that's ever happened wait that's yeah and she was just like he's watching over you're there for you he loves that you talk about him all the time and that i feel like happens so much with psychic mediums though you'll be like okay i'll go into it with a grain of salt and they'll say something like that and you're like and tell me all your secrets.
Speaker 2 Tell me all.
Speaker 3 So she's amazing.
Speaker 3 She's also just like easy to talk to and cool. But
Speaker 3
they also just help you be like, yeah, keep listening to your intuition. Yeah.
Do your thing.
Speaker 2 It's almost like a re, that's why I like to do it like once a year. And I usually do it at the beginning of the year because it is.
Speaker 2 just like a reset of reassurance of certain things that you're like, okay.
Speaker 3 It's also just like, if you feel uncomfortable, it's probably a reason and you know what it is.
Speaker 3 And just to always go back to like who you actually are and stop trying to be someone else is like,
Speaker 2 period. That's why I'm wearing my natural curly hair.
Speaker 3 And that's why you've gone back to your curls.
Speaker 3 You're fucking Shirley Temple over here.
Speaker 3 I've also been watching TV.
Speaker 2 What have you been watching?
Speaker 3 I started the show Mr. Robot.
Speaker 3 Have you watched it before?
Speaker 2 No, is that on Apple?
Speaker 3
It's on Netflix. It came back.
It's like started in 2016 with
Speaker 2 2016?
Speaker 3 Yeah, with Rami Malik.
Speaker 2 No.
Speaker 3
He played the singer in the Queen. Yeah.
Queen. Yeah.
It's interesting. It's basically like Dexter for coding.
Okay.
Speaker 3 So if you're, so honestly, like, I'm not sure about it, but I, I, like, got through it, if that makes sense.
Speaker 2
You guys are like, I have no shows this summer. Wait, you you know what someone said on TikTok, and it's like so eerily true.
This summer doesn't have a theme.
Speaker 2 The girls are scrambling.
Speaker 2 Like, someone dropped the ball on the summer theme. There's no summer show.
Speaker 3 There's no summer movie.
Speaker 3 But nothing's, I think Love Island has like honestly taken this toll on the community.
Speaker 2 It's taken a toll.
Speaker 3
People try to do Tomato Girl Summer. People try to do Sardine Girl Summer, which is very me-coated.
I knew that was a bigger story.
Speaker 2 Oh, I guess it is.
Speaker 2
I guess maybe sardine. But last summer, it was so it's Brat Summer.
It's hot girl summer.
Speaker 3 And then Charlie tried to be like, It's still Brat Summer. And we were like, No, you can't repeat like that.
Speaker 2 We have no, we have nothing. And I feel like I don't have a summer show.
Speaker 2 Like the two shows I'm watching, Gilded Age and Buccaneers, it's like I have to wait each week.
Speaker 3 My mom is watching that because she knows you love those shows, and she says you guys have the same taste.
Speaker 2 A period piece.
Speaker 3 A period piece.
Speaker 2 It just puts me in a good mood.
Speaker 3
But I have been back on my bullshit with documentaries. I kind of think you might like this if you got high.
Okay. It's called the Shark Whisperer.
Speaker 3 Okay.
Speaker 3 How high
Speaker 2 do you want me to get?
Speaker 3 More than Bader Blocker high.
Speaker 3
Okay, bear with me. This girl's like gorgeous.
Like blonde.
Speaker 2 I'm in.
Speaker 2 No, you don't know.
Speaker 3
No, I love watching pretty people. Yeah, like she's pretty, right? Done.
And she basically has always loved sharks. And I was like, okay, like, do you? I support a girl, woman in the arts.
Speaker 2 Have a hobby.
Speaker 3 Yeah. So, but her whole thing is she's like, if sharks wanted to eat everyone,
Speaker 3
they would. Yeah.
So she's like, I don't think sharks are this evil, scary monster that they've been put out in the media, like jaws and stuff.
Speaker 3
And I'm like, okay, okay, I love a villain turning story. Like, let's go.
And she's basically like
Speaker 3 swims with sharks in the wild
Speaker 3 and can go down for like six minutes because she says it's mental. And she's what? She's learned how they communicate.
Speaker 2 She's a fish.
Speaker 3 And she's a friend of theirs. And she went viral because she takes photos with them because she's trying to raise awareness to stop just killing sharks for shark fin soup and that kind of thing.
Speaker 2 Shark fin soup? Who's out here doing
Speaker 3 a huge thing in Asia?
Speaker 2 The hell is out here doing shit.
Speaker 2 Hundreds of thousands of sharks are killed a year to to just cut off their fin for this like delicacy so she's fighting for the sharks but she basically is like these sharks they get scared that's why sometimes they'll bite and then be like ew and like people just get bitten but this is so funny because a couple weeks ago my dad was talking about the summer we went to martha's vineyard and how we like stayed in the ocean the whole time and there were so many sharks and they were watching them from like helicopters and i said well from the helicopters then why don't they just shoot them and my dad looks at me he goes that's highly illegal.
Speaker 3 Wait, Gary supports the sharks. How she
Speaker 3 support her? Well, you're watching it and you realize that they're like gaining trust in her.
Speaker 3 And she basically basically showed them that she was a predator too and held herself confidently around them.
Speaker 3
And it's incredible. So, and it's also like aesthetically beautiful.
They're like in the ocean and she's like kissing these sharks.
Speaker 3 Oh my god. But it's just cool to see how
Speaker 3 there's different perspectives on stuff. And sharks aren't monsters.
Speaker 2 Sharks are friends, not food.
Speaker 3
Well, you guys, thank you for giggling with us. We're so sorry we didn't do an episode last week, and honestly, we regret it.
That was fucked up. We were scared.
Speaker 2 Honestly, we were forced into not doing it.
Speaker 3 We were, it was doctor's orders.
Speaker 3 I have to go do my road lesson. Thank you to all the gigglers who have been sending me advice on like where to take the test.
Speaker 3
And give me parallel parking advice. I'm reading everything.
You guys are amazing.
Speaker 2 Our DMs couldn't be more different.
Speaker 2 Literally, they're so different.
Speaker 3
