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 Harriet, fix the Wi-Fi. Manifest that shit.
Speaker 1 We can't be managed.
Speaker 1 I mean, the day just got away from me.
Speaker 2 Lois, do you want to say something on the pod? Giggly squad.
Speaker 2 Are you saying, what's up, gigglers?
Speaker 2 What's up, gigglers?
Speaker 2
Now let's say it louder. What's a giggler? Go giggler.
Yay!
Speaker 2 How y'all doing? Paige and I just came back from Texas and we've saved at least 22 minutes off our lives by saying y'all instead of you guys.
Speaker 1 I'm going to be honest, I feel like I didn't meet enough people with like thick accents.
Speaker 1 Like here's one thing about me when we go to different parts of the country I'm cosplaying.
Speaker 2 I want the full effect.
Speaker 1 Like, I want all the stereotypes. I want, I want to be in the mix.
Speaker 2 Well, tell them what happened when you took a photo in the elevator.
Speaker 1
We like touched down in Texas and we're at like our first venue. And I'm trying to, like, get in the elevator to take a picture.
And one of the maintenance guys that like works at the venue was like,
Speaker 1 where are y'all trying to go? Like, he was going to help me with the elevator. And I just like instinctually said back, oh, no problem sir I'm just taking a picture and then I
Speaker 1 and then I was like I'm so sorry your culture is not my costume I no apologize
Speaker 2 we get down to Texas and I'm so excited because I put together an outfit like cute farm girl county
Speaker 2 like could not be more
Speaker 2 What a stereotype of what I think someone in Texas dresses like, but I thought they were going to accept me with open arms. Walking in, everyone's dressed like the club, and I'm here looking like.
Speaker 1 Annie, get your gun.
Speaker 2 Annie, get your damn gun. Everyone was like, What are you doing? And I was like, I got brought a cowbell.
Speaker 1 Yeah, you were like, what's going on? Living in Texas. Like, what are you doing?
Speaker 2 Shout out to Texas for being the first state that the Izzy Trash guy got booed off stage.
Speaker 2 That's never happened in the history of Izzy Trash.
Speaker 1 In the history of Giggly Squad. And let's just like, let's just
Speaker 1 crunch some numbers really quickly.
Speaker 2 Which we never,
Speaker 2 either.
Speaker 1 The sentence, no.
Speaker 2 Crunch some numbers quickly. No number has ever been crunched on Giggly Squad.
Speaker 1 Has it been misappropriated?
Speaker 2 Absolutely. Has it been crunched? Negative.
Speaker 1 Okay, this is our second tour.
Speaker 1
We are almost done with our second tour and we have done like 50 over 40. Okay, let's just say 50 cities so far.
Last year, let's say we did another.
Speaker 1 Let's just say we did another 50.
Speaker 2 30.
Speaker 2 We'll just round up.
Speaker 2 We don't know. We actually have no idea what's going on.
Speaker 1 For the sake of the story, for the sake of the story, let's just say we've performed Giggly Squad
Speaker 1
80 times. 80 to 100 times.
Never in the history of Giggly Squad has a man been booed off of stage. Have I been like,
Speaker 1 you're actually for serious annoying me, like leave the stage?
Speaker 2 Has men
Speaker 1 has men?
Speaker 2 Have they?
Speaker 1 Phenomenal question to bring.
Speaker 1 And never in the history of Giggly Squad has a man said, no, I'm not coming on stage.
Speaker 2
No. And that was the other show.
Okay, Texas. I have so much to say about Texas.
This is the problem. There's a lot of problems going on.
I got an abortion in the bathroom, came out.
Speaker 2 I was like, why are you looking at me weird? Why are you looking at me, man? The men,
Speaker 2
have there been booze on Giggly Squad? Yes. Yes.
There's always booze. If I'm doing my job well, that man will be booed.
Do I want him to get stoned? No.
Speaker 2
And will I break him down to build him back up? Yes. I have, like, we are, it's an art form we're doing with Izzy Trash.
Trash. I know how to navigate the crowd and the guy and keep it all
Speaker 2
competitive. No one gets hurt.
That was the word, that was literally the exact word I wanted to say, but I could never come up with that word.
Speaker 1 Entirely sure on what it means, but
Speaker 2
no, but it's perfect for the moment. This man comes up and I think he was like blackout, which is funny because the boys never get blackout.
No, because they squad cousins. They stay alert.
Speaker 2
They need to stay alert. They don't know what's about to happen.
They don't want to.
Speaker 1 Definitely stay woke. Stay alert when you're at at Giggly Squad and you have a PC.
Speaker 2 And that I want
Speaker 2 the boys at a club to feel like how girls normally feel at a club.
Speaker 1 We have an escape plan at all times in our life. The only time you don't need an escape plan as a woman is at Giggly Squad.
Speaker 2 The bathrooms are ours.
Speaker 1 It is as if the outside world, we've had the men go extinct and there's only like one or two in the crowd that we're procreating with. You know, like that's how we're keeping the world alive.
Speaker 2
So this man comes up drunk and also cocky. Like he was like, I asked him a question.
He's like, well, repeated it back to me. And I was like, oh, no.
Speaker 2 But then the crowd was like, I guess like he showed enough disrespect that the crowd was like, we're not going to even let Hannah and Paige deal with this. Like we're dealing with this.
Speaker 2
To the point that I was like, guys, it's okay. We got it.
And the crowd was like, get him. We didn't even get it.
We didn't even get a question out.
Speaker 2
I didn't get one question out for him. He gets kicked out.
Then the next show in Austin, I see a douchebag third row and I said, are you a boyfriend? They said, yes. I said, babe, come up.
Speaker 2
And he shakes his head, no. Now, a lot of guys, a lot of guys do this.
And I go, look at you acting shy. Get your S up here.
He's like, no, I'm not coming up.
Speaker 2 And I'm like, okay, this is, I've never felt rejection like this before. And I looked at him and I was like, I'm not going to be mean, which obviously is a lie, but I was like, I got you.
Speaker 2
Like, we do this every show. Like, you came to the show.
This is the one thing you can do is entertain the gigglers. and he wouldn't come up.
And then you had a conspiracy theory.
Speaker 1
My conspiracy theory was one of two things. One, he's like old, so shy that it, like, would, he would have literally had a panic attack, and that I support.
Like,
Speaker 1 he didn't want to get into musical theater, and that's fine. I support not getting involved.
Speaker 1 Or he was so scared of what our questions were. And we don't go, like,
Speaker 1 we don't go that hard. Like, we're not trying to like break them.
Speaker 1 And we certainly don't do anything that would like actually jeopardize your relationship I think he was like scared we were like actually gonna go hard and be like let me see the last DM you sent or like let me see the last text and that's why I think he didn't come up but also again I just made all of that up so but also you're right you've never been wrong I've literally never been wrong ever but period but it's funny because we're like we're not gonna go through your phone but then the guy that comes up I go I ask them like like what's the background of your phone and this guy pulls out like a whole to-do list that's on his background and i go
Speaker 2 i go give me the phone babe and i look at it and i'm like first of all i i literally put my hands on his shoulder because i have a inspirational quote on my phone and i was like we've both been through dark times which you've had for like
Speaker 1 a couple years now.
Speaker 2 I've had it for because I'm a little superstitious. So when things started going well, I was like, I can't change the quote, but it still is like the most depressing quote of my life.
Speaker 1 I'm I'm such a sports person.
Speaker 1 Like, that wouldn't even run through my mind.
Speaker 2 No, if I change my background, the whole world will collapse. So, everyone.
Speaker 1 It's a butterfly effect.
Speaker 2
Yeah, you're like, you're welcome. And I also like to see it to be like how far we've come.
So that when I'm sad, I'm like, remember when you were sad, sad?
Speaker 2 Remember when you were sad, sad, sad? So anyway, the first thing it says is like,
Speaker 2 be grateful. So I'm like, oh, this is dark.
Speaker 2 And then he said the most manly shit he was like when you're not doing anything do push-ups or squats just do it and I'm like okay toxic masculinity damn and then my favorite was by Friday fix your finances and it was so wholesome and so
Speaker 1 that actually made me like love him I was like that's so cute and stupid
Speaker 2
But then he goes, then he goes, set therapy appointment. And then the following week, set another therapy appointment.
I go, you're so close.
Speaker 2 Let's just set it to weekly so you don't have to keep setting one each week. But you're so close.
Speaker 1 No, like, pick one day that your therapist has that slot open and you're in there weekly.
Speaker 1 But no, it was so
Speaker 2 cute.
Speaker 1 I will say
Speaker 1 52 shows has
Speaker 1 it's done me in. I'm
Speaker 1 emotionally drained.
Speaker 1 I can't pick out another outfit.
Speaker 2 I, Paige DeSorbo, on November 19th at 10.30 a.m.
Speaker 1 I cannot do it. I cannot put together another
Speaker 1 entire outfit. It's literally,
Speaker 1
I have nothing left in me. I have no more clothes.
I've literally exhausted.
Speaker 2 Okay, but can I just explain how Paige is? This is her Tuesday, but come Friday when we have to be in Miami, this bitch is going to have it together.
Speaker 1 I'm like, wait till you see my outfits tonight.
Speaker 2 Throughout the tour, Paige will be like, I can't do it anymore. And then she'll get a good Diet Coke and be like,
Speaker 2 that Diet Coke in Dallas saved my life.
Speaker 1 That Diet Coke in Dallas saved my fucking life.
Speaker 2 She was taking photos of it. I was like, this is.
Speaker 1 I'm going to post that Diet Coke because nothing hit the way that Coke did.
Speaker 2
Wait. Can you explain? Wait.
What?
Speaker 1 I need to bring something to the forefront to
Speaker 1 compliment you and say a personality trait that I don't think people know about you. And I've recently learned it and it's quickly become my favorite thing about you.
Speaker 1 Like I'll never, I'll never go to another person
Speaker 1 for this specific situation.
Speaker 2 I have no idea what you're gonna say.
Speaker 1 Hannah has this crazy ability that in any city we're in,
Speaker 1 she will find you the best breakfast place. Like,
Speaker 1
no ifs, ands, or buts. Like, you land, your room's not ready.
That's fine. Hannah Birder's going to take you to the most fire brunch you've ever had.
Speaker 2 Wait, no, people don't know this. People don't know this about me.
Speaker 2
People don't know this about me. Because people will be like, oh, Hannah's not fun.
Like, she doesn't do Coke and she doesn't party.
Speaker 1 Okay, I said it one time.
Speaker 2 i party but i party with pancakes to the face like i i'm dancing i'm dancing i know exactly what to order i
Speaker 2 i will find like in the middle of nowhere when i'm driving from like city to city the perfect brunch spot and
Speaker 2 i have a i have an eye for diners like i can tell when it's shit no hannah you have an eye for a diner eye and it's like it can't be taught so like anyone listening I'm it's either have it or you don't.
Speaker 1 And you want to know what? I don't have it. And that's fine because you have it.
Speaker 2 And I don't mean to like promote capitalism right now, but like I still fuck with Yelp.
Speaker 2
And you've made fun of me before. I pull out my Yelp.
I put
Speaker 2
breakfast spots, and then I'm looking at it and I'm looking through the photos. I'm looking through it through the reviews.
You're going through vibes.
Speaker 1 You do it energetic.
Speaker 2
Energetically. Energetically.
i see their aura
Speaker 2 so there was a place in dallas but i had paige had to walk like four blocks and i was like she's gonna be she's gonna have a fit like literally a toddler so like second block she's like hannah where are you taking us and we see like one shop that has pink bows and she's like is that can we stop by the pink bow place and i'm like focus we're going to food she goes are you sure it's not that place i'm like no it's not the place with the pink bows
Speaker 2 that cracked
Speaker 2 You were fighting for your life and you were like, go towards the pink bows.
Speaker 2 No, that's not where we're going. I was fighting for my life.
Speaker 2 And then we get there and we order pancakes, happiest she's ever been. She was like, I love tour.
Speaker 1
I've started doing this really weird thing. It's not weird.
It's actually genius. Where I convince myself, because I always want eggs, but I also always want pancakes.
Speaker 1 So I convince myself that if I order pancakes for the table it's not like me getting pancakes but then I've noticed that Hannah and Grace have literally never once touched the pancakes for the table and I in fact am continuously getting two entrees I do have to say pancakes for the table is a power move it's everyone should be doing that at brunch I'm obsessed with it Pancakes for the table, because it's like, it's like bread for the table.
Speaker 1 Exactly.
Speaker 1 It's extra bread for the table.
Speaker 2
Or like a little dessert to dabble in. Also, we are, do not tell me I could get one drink.
When you get to brunch, you need your water because you need to hydrate.
Speaker 2 You need your orange juice or Coke, whatever your juice or soda of choice is. And you need
Speaker 2
your caffeine. So I want to drown myself in liquids before the eggs even come.
Yeah. And these are just, that's just just the law.
Speaker 1 You and Grace always get the same order.
Speaker 2 Well, Grace and I are very connected.
Speaker 1 You're very connected.
Speaker 2 I was sweet. Do you remember how bitchy I was when I went up to go to the bathroom? You know, when you leave your two friends, like, you don't know if they're alone too much together.
Speaker 2 And I go, maybe you guys can talk about Grace's anatomy. And then I walked away.
Speaker 1 Me and Grace, me and Grace have a different type of relationship than you and Grace.
Speaker 2 Like, she's like protective of me.
Speaker 1 She's very protective of me and she's very like weary that I'm gonna like break out into
Speaker 1
like hysterics. Like I'm either gonna cry or freak the fuck out.
Like there's really no in-between for me on tour.
Speaker 2
Where Grace and I will just whisper to be like, how's Paige doing today? She in a mood. I told, I had to warn her one morning.
I was like, Paige is going to hate my outfit tonight.
Speaker 2
So just mentally prepare. She's not going to be happy.
And Grace was like, are you serious? And I'm like, just letting you know.
Speaker 2 And it was so funny because it was the one outfit that i was like paige is gonna like lit it's gonna ruin her night and like she doesn't even know that her night's gonna be ruined and it's because of me and then i put on this outfit you turn to me and you go hey it's kind of cute and i was like that you like the full plaid fit you loved it we've also started this entire bit that like any city we go to why is it any city that you're in that you don't live in everything is so so cute
Speaker 2 no New Yorkers, when we visit any other city, will like literally see
Speaker 2 a sign post and we'll be like, wait, that's literally so cute.
Speaker 1 We literally, I feel like living in New York City and then going to any other
Speaker 1 city, you don't feel like it's
Speaker 1 even though New York is considered like a small city, I don't think of any other city in the country.
Speaker 2 I don't think New York's considered a small city.
Speaker 1 I mean, like geography-wise.
Speaker 1 Like, it's 12 miles.
Speaker 2 It has like
Speaker 2 crunching numbers.
Speaker 1
Sorry, crunching numbers. New York City is 12 miles and it has like 8 million people.
But when I go to other cities, I always think it's smaller than New York City.
Speaker 1 Like, any other city, I'm like, oh, this is a small town. Like, when I'm in Chicago, I'm like, oh, cute small town body.
Speaker 2
So cute. Everything is cute.
We'll literally get like a plate and I'll be like, this is the cutest plate. We love
Speaker 2 little things in other places, but you know what it is. We never leave the hotel, so when we leave the hotel and there's like a little bit of sunshine, we're like, Okay, cute.
Speaker 1 What's that job called when you like
Speaker 2 make stuff up on the microphone podcasting when you just talk to each other, don't say anything?
Speaker 1 What's the job called when it's like the study of people?
Speaker 2 Sociology.
Speaker 1 Okay, I feel like because we've traveled to the country, like I could meet anyone and be like, you're from
Speaker 1 this part of the country.
Speaker 2 This is how like we may start becoming psychics, like especially with Izzy Trash.
Speaker 2 When guys come up, because we've asked so many questions, we know based on like the shirt they're wearing, if they have an Apple watch, what kind of socks, how they do their hair, we know like what career they have,
Speaker 2 what kind of like personality they have.
Speaker 1 I've even guessed some men's names right before. We're sociologists.
Speaker 2 We're sociologists.
Speaker 2 This is a scientific podcast.
Speaker 2 Speaking of science, have you heard about the water aliens?
Speaker 2 Are they on your algorithm?
Speaker 1 They sure freaking are.
Speaker 2 Why is no one talking about that?
Speaker 1 No, this is the craziest thing.
Speaker 1 It's not a conspiracy theory. Like
Speaker 1 they said, hey, there's some people and they live in the ocean.
Speaker 2 This is why they're pushing Domingo so hard right now on SNL because they're trying to distract us from the water aliens.
Speaker 2 Shut out Marcelo.
Speaker 2 Shut up, Marcelo.
Speaker 1 No, there's shout out Marcelo and his start, which was Hannah Berner's Bachelorette Party.
Speaker 2 Like,
Speaker 1 I don't think he's like remembering his roots and where he came from. And it was Hannah's Bachelorette Party in which we convinced him to do that set to like become a comedian and now on SNL.
Speaker 1 We're also managers and agents.
Speaker 2 If you're wondering who the girls are behind Marcelo, it's us.
Speaker 2 It was literally us.
Speaker 1 We took a chance on an unknown kid and we said, you're a star.
Speaker 2 We take out talent.
Speaker 1 I mean, we just.
Speaker 2
Look, we have an eye for these things. We sure do.
And we have an eye for humor. Yeah, the water aliens.
Like, hello
Speaker 2 what are we gonna do what are we gonna are they are they cool are they not like i need some more information
Speaker 1 to think they are cool
Speaker 1 i've heard like a different then i've like gotten on conspiracy theory tick tock of like what their demeanor is what they're like where they're from like all this weird
Speaker 2 we have to see like who's talking about them like Is it their friends talking about them? Because then they're cool. But if it's their enemies, then obviously the enemies would talk shit on them.
Speaker 1
Here's the thing. Here's why I am going with the thought of like that they're cool is because like they've been in the sky.
Like they've seen like they're saying
Speaker 1 they're saying that like their little contraption things that they're in or whatever have gone up into the sky and then they go back down and they live under the water.
Speaker 1 So it's like they've seen us, they know about us and they're like, we have no interest.
Speaker 1 And it's kind of cunt.
Speaker 2 In the current climate, we're going to go under the water. So they have like a whole whole town underwater? Like Atlantis? I don't know.
Speaker 2 I don't know. Are they hot?
Speaker 1 I just feel like they see us and they're like,
Speaker 1 ew.
Speaker 2 Like they're New Yorkers going to any other city.
Speaker 1 They're like, cute, but I'd never live here.
Speaker 2 That's so bad.
Speaker 1
It's literally me going anywhere in the Midwest. I'm like, so cute.
I have no interest.
Speaker 2 Yeah, I'm just, I was watching this alien abduction thing on Netflix about how this woman was like,
Speaker 2 she's like this Italian woman that was just like, one day, the aliens like put something in my nose and they did an x-ray and there's like a little thing in my nose and they're like tracking me.
Speaker 1 Are you ever pushed to the point where you're like, where is all my money actually going? Well, you'll be shocked to learn that the average US consumer makes about 70 payments per month.

Speaker 2
nothing is accurate. And everything's, I mean, look at like the let's talk about.
No, Hannah, nothing's real. Let's talk about Mike Tyson and Jake Paul.
Speaker 1 Rigged, not a real thing.
Speaker 2 Like, how have
Speaker 2 I that Mike Tyson got $20 million?
Speaker 2 I didn't have to see elder abuse on my TV.
Speaker 1 I feel like, okay, this is also so crazy. Me, Hannah, and Grace were in, where were we?
Speaker 1
We were driving. We were driving from some city in Texas to another city in Texas.
I literally can't even tell you.
Speaker 1 And everyone makes one of my iPad, but hey, we watched the fight on my iPad and
Speaker 2 we,
Speaker 1 this is going to be crazy. We used a hotspot and Hannah literally thought it was aliens.
Speaker 2 So I don't believe in hotspots.
Speaker 1 Hannah does not believe in hotspots.
Speaker 2 I have a question.
Speaker 2 If my internet wasn't working today and we wanted to do this zoom could you hotspot could i have used a hotspot could i have used it yeah would it have worked for a zoom yeah like does it max out like it could do a zoom it could do a zoom could i download a video yeah you could probably download could i contact a water alien
Speaker 2 Okay, so my toxic trade is I think I could do a Mike Tyson impression.
Speaker 2
Look, Jake Paul's going to die. I'm a killer, and I'm going to kill him, and that's just what happens.
And I love my pigeons, and I love my daughter, and I think I have a son. I'm not sure.
Speaker 2
And look, they're gonna die. I can't help it.
That's pretty good. I can't help it.
It's also just like he has a lisp.
Speaker 2
No one's talking about it. No one talks about it.
I'm just doing my Andrew Collins in the higher octave.
Speaker 2 No, but that's why I was scared because Jake Paul comes in all flashy.
Speaker 2 His brother's spraying him with whatever they're promoting.
Speaker 1 I had to look up what that was because it was, which is probably exactly what they wanted you to do.
Speaker 1 It was like a spray deodorant.
Speaker 2
Whatever. It's a spray deodorant.
And they're milking it. And they have cars and explosions.
They had pigeons in a
Speaker 2 box.
Speaker 1 I loved, I just loved being on TikTok after and like all the girls just being like, oh, women are so emotional. And it's just a picture of Jake Paul rolling in on like that car.
Speaker 1 It's like, we're so dramatic.
Speaker 2 Okay.
Speaker 2
Yeah. And then Mike Tyson shows up just himself in a ripped black shirt and I'm like, I'm out.
Like I'd be like, I'd be so scared.
Speaker 1 I would have been peeing my pants.
Speaker 2 Also, when I found out that Mike Tyson doesn't brush his teeth, I was like,
Speaker 1 that's insane behavior.
Speaker 2
That's insane behavior. And that's why I would not want to fight him.
No. Not that.
Speaker 2
So then they start fighting. And at first, we're like, okay, Mike, it's 58.
He can't fight. But then everyone's saying like he didn't do one uppercut which is his known move
Speaker 1 I've heard stories that in the contract it said that Mike Tyson
Speaker 1 could not do perform any uppercuts and could not knock him out in the first round I think that he would have been knocked out in the first round but if they went to eight rounds they were gonna get more money and they need and Mike Tyson wanted the money and
Speaker 2 I stand I stand with you well that little girl interviewed Mike Tyson and was so cute. And she was like, Mike Tyson, what does this mean for your legacy?
Speaker 2 And he was like, legacy the made up and we're all going to die and be underground someday. And she was like,
Speaker 2
oh, I never thought about it that way. She was like, perfect.
Thank you.
Speaker 2 That girl quit her job and she was going to be a future sports reporter.
Speaker 2
And he went to the dark side with her. But anyway, long story short.
I'm just sick of fake shit. Can we get back to being real?
Speaker 1 Hannah, I'm so glad you said that because i had the exact same feeling the other day where i was just like i'm sick of marketing i'm like is anything real everything's clickbait everything is clickbait nowadays and i'm so fucking sick of it okay well then you know what i mean this is a perfect time for me to call myself out because A couple of pods ago, I was on here like complaining about rage bait and I was just like, what is rage bait?
Speaker 1 Like, this is like, it's like really annoying me. And I, it's like a made up thing and blah, blah, blah.
Speaker 1 I posted a picture yesterday in my grid that was a bunch of things in a TSA bin. Now,
Speaker 1 I was going to ask you about that. Someone commented and said, lipstick cap off, you know about rage bait.
Speaker 1 Now, I was not aware that that was something that was infused in rage bait, like taking your lipstick cap off. Also, guys, I wanna preface.
Speaker 1 I did not take that at the actual TSA line, you freaks. How could I have possibly gotten that iconic shot?
Speaker 1 If you think that me and my assistant aren't over here thinking of new aesthetics and cute things, I ordered a TSA bin on Amazon.
Speaker 1 All my TSA bin pics. Like, if you ever see a TSA bin pic where it's like cute aesthetic accessories, I have a TSA bin and I take it in my living room.
Speaker 2 You're the problem.
Speaker 1 No, I know.
Speaker 1 That's why I'm being truthful and honest.
Speaker 2 I love that you're open and honest about that, but you ordering a TSA bin on Amazon is the craziest.
Speaker 2 that's up there with the girls taking photos in the private jets that's just one chair in Hollywood like in a hospital I think it look I think those pictures are it looks so fucking cute I did comment I was like that's why you took so long in TSA yeah like I could have never gotten that in TSA I'm throwing in different bags we're doing different shoes we're like I'm playing I'm over here playing
Speaker 2 so I commend you for not only understanding what rage bait is, but then like
Speaker 1 just trying to immerse myself in the culture so that I really know.
Speaker 2 And that shows how you can learn and change perspective on something and embrace it, things that you previously hated. So maybe you're bringing the world together in this political climate.
Speaker 2 So Grace posted a bunch of stuff on Instagram and you commented, take down this photo. Yeah.
Speaker 2 Then Grace told me that you can go in and take down a photo after posting.
Speaker 1 You can take, so I'm connected to the Giggly Squad account. So I was like, what am I doing waiting for Grace to take down this horrible photo? Let me go onto the account.
Speaker 1 And you can delete the, I think you can only delete in like the carousel of like however many are in the dump. I want to say you can only delete the first one, but I might be wrong.
Speaker 1 I think you can go in and delete other ones.
Speaker 2 I had no idea. That was a woman instead.
Speaker 1 Yeah, feature that was updated like a little bit ago.
Speaker 2 I have a pitch for
Speaker 2 the next Emily in Paris. Okay.
Speaker 2
Because I heard that, well, my mom's watching it. She loves it.
I know she's in Paris. And then they're kind of running out of ideas.
So they brought her to Italy.
Speaker 2 I want to see Emily in Pittsburgh.
Speaker 2 I want to see Emily go to a regular city,
Speaker 2 which actually has Pittsburgh has beautiful water.
Speaker 1 Just a town. Canals.
Speaker 2
Just like a canal. Just a town.
I want to see Emily meeting the guy who is a plumber
Speaker 2 and flirting with him and doing marketing for Pittsburgh's
Speaker 1 Steelers.
Speaker 2 Steelers.
Speaker 2
I want to see Emily in Pittsburgh next. I'm sick of this glamorous.
Let's bring it back to the States. America needs you right now, Emily.
Because you want to know what?
Speaker 1 Nothing's real.
Speaker 1 Nothing is.
Speaker 2 Real. You still haven't watched The Substance with Demi Moore, have you?
Speaker 1 I haven't, but you want to know what? I started like the first five minutes of it and I fell asleep.
Speaker 2 I do have to say, it's not a chill movie. It's a movie that, like,
Speaker 1 well, when it started, here's the thing that I don't like when it comes to some movies.
Speaker 1 They don't preface that it's super fucking artsy. Like, the way it's shot.
Speaker 2 There should be a warning.
Speaker 1 There should be some type of warning.
Speaker 2 They go, hey, this is some artsy bullshit.
Speaker 1
Yeah, like, I need a warning. Like, hey, we're going to sing more than two songs.
Thank you. I'm out.
Hey, it's going to be shot from, like, a different angle lens that you rarely see.
Speaker 1 Thank you so much. I'm out.
Speaker 2 Like, what did Craig, the DP, think of their
Speaker 2 video direction?
Speaker 1 He wasn't around. I couldn't.
Speaker 1 That's his professional opinion.
Speaker 2
It's the kind of thing you're going to watch, and then you have to turn to the person next to you, and like, you're going to have a strong opinion on it. Like, the internet is divided.
So
Speaker 2 I think everyone should watch it.
Speaker 1
I will say Demi Moore is legit aging backwards. I want to know what she's done.
And, like, can we talk about Christina Aguilera? Because, like, is that her?
Speaker 2 Well, Christina Aguilera and Lindsay Lohan both sacrificed the blood of orphans
Speaker 2 and injected it into their body.
Speaker 2
Yeah. And then they now look like they're 17.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 Like, how does Christina Aguilera look like that? Like, for a serious, what, like, I need her to say what she did. Like, I feel like she definitely went on Ozempic
Speaker 2 for, like, a little bit.
Speaker 1 And, but, like,
Speaker 2 how?
Speaker 2 The stem cells of baby toads.
Speaker 1 Yeah, it's just, it's kind of crazy.
Speaker 2 It's, technology is getting,
Speaker 2 like, scary.
Speaker 2 But I do have to say,
Speaker 2 and someone on,
Speaker 2
I don't know who said it, but it's important on TikTok. It wasn't me.
They said, would you rather look weird
Speaker 2 but young
Speaker 1 look weird but young okay
Speaker 2 like you look young but you look off okay
Speaker 2 or just or just look a little bit like you aged a little bit like you aged
Speaker 1 i don't want to look weird
Speaker 2 i can't wait to look old and we talk about this all the time
Speaker 2 I want to be one of those interesting older women that wears thick glasses.
Speaker 2
Big glasses. And it's honestly one of the hardest parts of my life is that I have 20-20 vision.
So I can't, and I really get overstimulated when I have glasses on. I feel like
Speaker 2 take it on. You can't.
Speaker 1 If you ever see Hannah in sunglasses,
Speaker 2 seriously.
Speaker 1 Because they will be off in the next five seconds. You've caught a rare moment where she has them on.
Speaker 2 She walks into a car.
Speaker 1 The other day she was trying to put her Z-belt on and she couldn't click it. And she was like, it's because I have sunglasses on.
Speaker 2 i couldn't see shit i also wear the cheapest sunglasses but i want to be an older woman with a big smock
Speaker 2 okay
Speaker 2 okay and big thick like tortoiseshell or like bright green glasses yeah and then like gray
Speaker 2 short hair or like a bob moment okay and and i'm busy okay like i'm yelling at someone on the phone yeah
Speaker 2 And I have like cool jewelry that I got in like Milan. And then in my trip to South America.
Speaker 1
And you just have a story for like every everything that's in your home. You have like a story behind it.
It's not just like tchotchkis. It's like it happens.
And I curse.
Speaker 2
I curse, but it's hilarious. Like everyone's like, watch out, grandma's.
Oh, there's the F-bomb.
Speaker 1 And you have like three grandkids.
Speaker 2
And let's be honest, by that time, Des will have passed. Yeah.
Oh, yeah. And
Speaker 2 I will have a rotating suitors, and no one's allowed to tell the suitors that there are other suitors. So when they come in, they think their grandma is the only one.
Speaker 2 And I said, don't tell them that grandma saw someone different last night. Yeah.
Speaker 1 You're basically, you want to be Martha Stewart, but like
Speaker 1 a little bit more eclectic.
Speaker 2 Yes, eclectic Martha Stewart.
Speaker 1 And that's your vibe.

Speaker 2
You have your own Atlantis in your home. Yes.
You are a water alien of your mansion.

Speaker 2 Not to bring politics up, but
Speaker 2 what's a cabinet?
Speaker 1 Who cleans it?
Speaker 2 Who stocks it?
Speaker 2 Why are there cabinets and are they organized? Are they in the house, in the White House? Are they not in the White House? Are they in
Speaker 2 the water?
Speaker 1 If we had a cabinet, who would be in it?
Speaker 2 Great question.
Speaker 1 First and foremost, Grace Battle.
Speaker 2 Grace?
Speaker 1 Grace would be head of our cabinet.
Speaker 2 Head of the cabinet.
Speaker 1 Snoop Dogg would be there for just like general vibes.
Speaker 2 Then Butter and Daphne.
Speaker 1 I'm putting Martha Stewart in my cabinet.
Speaker 2 For sure.
Speaker 2 Cardi B.
Speaker 1 Cardi B.
Speaker 2 Domingo.
Speaker 1 Domingo would 100% be in our cabinet.

Speaker 1 Just for like someone to really lean on
Speaker 1 in hard times.
Speaker 2 You love Matthew McConaughey.
Speaker 1 I'm obsessed with Matthew McConaughey. I've always loved Matthew McConaughey, and I think I feel very connected to him because we share a birthday.

Speaker 1 I actually share a birthday with Bethany Frankel, Matthew McConaughey,
Speaker 1 and I want to say Oprah.

How insane.
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 Actually, wait, I kind of do want to say something.
Speaker 1 I've been seeing a lot of discourse online recently.
Speaker 1 And I just want to say, like, I do not watch
Speaker 1
Real Housewives of New York City. I don't watch anything on Bravo because it just, like, I would need an instant beta blocker.
Like, I can't do it.
Speaker 1
But I want to come out with like an un like not the same opinion as everybody else. Like, people are hating the new Real Housewives of New York City.
Like, I mean,
Speaker 1 they're going hard in their, in their TikToks and in their comments.
Speaker 1
And I just, oh, they're like in their comments. Yeah, just being like, this show sucks.
You guys all suck. Like, there's, and everyone loved it last year and blah, blah, blah.
I just want to say.
Speaker 2 Let's get a professional opinion right now.
Speaker 1 I just want to say, from like, yeah, from a professional opinion,
Speaker 1 you like everyone when they're on for their first season. Why would they make the show that you don't like everyone? They want you to watch the show.
Speaker 1 So, yes, you are going to like everyone when they're on for their first season. And everyone on that show was a first season cast member.
Speaker 1 I do think that we should give the real housewives of New York City a little bit of grace.
Speaker 1 It is very hard to film a reality TV show, and every single person on that cast has never filmed a reality TV show. They have no idea what is going on.
Speaker 1
And like, yeah, okay, they did their first season. They're like, okay, yeah, we know.
And then it came out and they were like, yeah, we know how to film a reality TV show.
Speaker 1 Then they get hit with a second season and they have no one to turn to because no one's ever filmed a TV show before.
Speaker 2
That is such a really important point. Speaking as people who came into a show, when you're the new people, you look around and there's a flow to how things go.
Correct.
Speaker 2
It's basically like imagine shooting a movie and no one's ever shot a movie. No one's ever shot a movie.
And they're like, do it. You need a couple people who are like, this is how there's a flow to
Speaker 1
how we shoot. And that is one thing I will say about Summerhouse.
Like coming in as a new person,
Speaker 1 we very quickly learned and were taught by the cast members that were already on the show. This is how you film and this is what happens.
Speaker 1 And we like learned, but after we filmed our first season, then we came back our second season and still had more things to learn of like the flow and how what you talk about.
Speaker 2 Because let's be honest, for a good show to happen, you need... certain characters,
Speaker 2 you need a storyline, you need arcs, and it takes a lot of people. Like it is work and it also is not just a bunch of people talking, even though it seems effortless like that.
Speaker 2
There's storylines that everyone has. And when people are like, oh, they're producing themselves.
Because you're literally told you need to have a storyline or you're kicked off the show.
Speaker 1 Right. And I just think that
Speaker 1 I just think
Speaker 1
that they did a real disservice. To put together the perfect cast is, it never happens.
It's way too hard. Like, it's so hard to get.
Speaker 2 They should not have had everyone be green.
Speaker 2 They should have kept some legacy. They shouldn't even be called legacy.
Speaker 2
That's like they're alive. So Asian.
They're still alive. They're still alive.
But I think there is something important to be said about people who know the ropes and know how to make a good season.
Speaker 2 And I also want to say one more thing since we're, you know, laying it all out there. Yeah.
Speaker 2 The reason people's first seasons, they make you likable is because if something's going to happen to you later on, people have to care. Yeah.
Speaker 2
And no one cares if they never felt connected to you in the first place. Right.
So a lot of people come in and their first season, they get shown in like the best possible light.
Speaker 2 And then their second season or third season is normally when shit hits the fan and they're like, how could this happen? I did the same thing I did last season.
Speaker 2 And it's like, well, now we're not introducing you anymore. We're now using you for storyline.
Speaker 1 Like I've seen so many things cut.
Speaker 1 from my own show from other shows because it's like well nobody would care because nobody cares about that that person or nobody cares about this drama. Like,
Speaker 2 there are a lot of times where you're like, how did only one person be the only drama all season? No, there was other drama, but they knew that it wasn't what the audience wanted to see.
Speaker 1 Right. And so I think like everyone coming so hard at them for their second season, like they're unable to be like, we don't know how to film a show.
Speaker 2 Like they can't come out and it's not, but it's not their fault. But I also think they didn't even know while filming the second season what they didn't know.
Speaker 1
Right. Like, they didn't know, like, oh, the second season, it's not as good as the first season.
Like, they had no idea because, like, they don't have anything to go off of.
Speaker 2 And also, if they're listening, shout out.
Speaker 2 If you're cast on a TV show, you can never believe what
Speaker 2 they've made you look like. Because once you believe you're the person that they're putting on TV,
Speaker 2 then you're believing the hype of yourself, which is not true. It's still a character.
Speaker 1 I just think there's such like a learning curve in doing reality TV. Like I am certainly not the person I was when I did my first season of reality TV.
Speaker 1 I'm not even the person I was when I filmed this last summer. Like there's such a learning curve and there's such like different aspects of it.
Speaker 1
And the best advice I ever got from someone was 50% of people are going to hate you. 50% of people are going to love you.
And neither of them are right because they don't know you actually.
Speaker 1 So like, yeah, I used to watch the show when I was like, when we would get it before it would air now, like, it's not, it's the way I feel about Instagram comments, it's actually none of my business anymore.
Speaker 1 Like once it's out, once your art is out into the world, you don't, you don't own it anymore. So like for me to watch it
Speaker 1 and go through like what I think viewers are thinking when they watch it, like that's too much anxiety. Like, so I can't watch it.
Speaker 2 I was told something similar. I was told you can't believe the hype or the hate because if you start believing the hype about yourself, then naturally you're gonna believe the hate also.
Speaker 2
And people are just judging based on the oversimplified version of you. And it's true.
I actually just watched this documentary about WWE
Speaker 2 about Vince McMahon. It took like, it was a long, long documentary, but WWE is all storylines.
Speaker 2 And the way they get a good storyline is getting emotion from people so we said once they'd get someone and they wouldn't know if the fans would like or hate the person but they just needed a reaction and if a guy walked up and people booed he was happy because it means the audience is engaged but if a guy walked up to fight and no one did anything he was like this isn't yeah like i'm done so they needed to at least get people to love or hate i mean at least people are talking about Roni, but I guess they're mad that it's boring.
Speaker 1
I guess they're like not, they're saying like they're not watching it. It's a boring blah blah blah.
But I just think like give them a little grace. They're figuring out how to film a TV show.
Speaker 1 This is only the second time they've been on TV. Like they don't.
Speaker 1 But then you could say the same for Real Housewives of Salt Lake City that like they were all new too. True.
Speaker 2 But they crushed it.
Speaker 1
But they like have been crushing it. But I just think there's a lot of pressure in New York because their first season, they hyped up so much.
Like every single article was like, New York City's back.
Speaker 1 These are the best women in New York City. And so, like, I think it gave the viewer, like, oh, they're gonna perform the way we're used to New York City performing.
Speaker 2 You guys, this is the realest reality TV lore you're getting right now.
Speaker 2 With Salt Lake City, they had to prove themselves.
Speaker 1 They had to prove themselves.
Speaker 2
They came on being like, Why you're Utah? Like, who gives a fuck? We don't even understand your religion. We don't understand your families.
We don't know who you guys are. Why should we care?
Speaker 2 Yeah, why should we care? And these women gave
Speaker 2 everything.
Speaker 2 They gave everything.
Speaker 2 But New York, I think Bravo really wanted to make sure and guarantee that the audience was going to like the new New York and not miss the old New York. So they pushed it so hard to be so good.
Speaker 2 And it's almost like they didn't earn it. And they were just given like, you're the new people and you guys are great.
Speaker 2 And then I think the girls are protecting this brand that they were just given and they didn't earn.
Speaker 2 And I don't mean this, like, obviously, they've worked hard in some capacity with what they could do. Yeah.
Speaker 2 But no one's gone to jail.
Speaker 1 It's just, it's harder to film a reality TV show than people think.
Speaker 1 And it's harder to give like good entertainment and have good flow and not harp on situations for too long and get to the next moment, but also like give enough context to the moments.
Speaker 1 Like it's not as easy as people think. It's saying.
Speaker 2 It's very difficult, especially a friend group. I think also,
Speaker 2 what would you do if you were Bravo? Would you bring back Durinda and Luann and try to force a friend?
Speaker 1 I don't think I would because it's almost like we're past that. Like if they had done that in the first season, like they kept Sonia and Luann and then they brought in the new girls.
Speaker 1 I think that maybe would have helped. Even if they got rid of Sonia and Luann like in the second season or in the third season, it still would have given the new girls like something to go off of.
Speaker 1 I think, like, genuinely, and I've met a lot of the real housewives of New York City, like the new ones, and they're all very lovely and nice.
Speaker 1 And so, I do think, like, giving them a little bit of grace of like, okay, let them film again, and like, like, it will get better as time goes on.
Speaker 1 But, second season, yeah, second season is hard for any cast member, let alone an entire show
Speaker 2 of
Speaker 1 all second season cast members.
Speaker 2
Yeah, I mean, also, I just want to preface this. This is coming from two people.
I've never seen a minute of the season.
Speaker 1 No, I have not watched a second of this season. Like, I also
Speaker 2 said,
Speaker 1
because I just kept seeing videos of, like, it sucks. This is why it's bad.
And blah, blah, blah. And it's like,
Speaker 1
okay, well, none of the people making the videos, none of you have filmed a reality TV show. So I don't think you actually know why it's bad.
And like, so I felt like I had to say, like, it's not bad.
Speaker 1 It's just, it's harder for them. Like, I will say, when we came on to Summer House, like, we did have very good cast members who were like, this is,
Speaker 1 now we're going to do this. And now we're going to do that.
Speaker 2 The first season, while they were introducing us and they were like repeating how many times I played tennis and you were, and you were talking about you love fashion outfits, that couldn't have sustained the first season.
Speaker 2
We needed other people's messy storylines. Right.
So what happened is the first season, everyone was just introducing themselves and they're like, this is so fun. Second season, we don't give a fuck.
Speaker 2 We know who you are.
Speaker 2 Show me what you're bringing to the table if you want to do reality TV.
Speaker 1 I'm just going to say this too. It is very nerve-wracking filming a television show that you have no control of the edit.
Speaker 1
So like, yeah, they're watching what they say because they don't want to get canceled or they don't want to be the most hated. Like, yeah, they're nervous.
Like, wouldn't you be nervous?
Speaker 2 It's once you're liked, it's hard because you want to keep that. So then you're like, when they ask you like, hey, can you bring up this problem? You're like, what? You're like, I don't want to be so.
Speaker 2
I don't want to, why would I risk it? And then you have a bunch of people who are trying to save face. That's not.
You think anyone in Vanderpump ever tried to save face? Right.
Speaker 1
Right. They're nervous that like everyone's going to hate them.
And I, and it's so easy to be like, who cares what people think? And I am so, and I am such a split personality when it comes to that.
Speaker 1 Like, I want everyone to like me, but also then I'll get into moods where like, I don't give a fuck if you like me or not yeah but it's a constant hope yeah it's a constant battle of like
Speaker 2 wait this episode's gonna come out and I'm gonna be perceived and people are either gonna love or hate me and in reality I've never met any of them and so like I think they're all just like kind of going through it a little bit and I I do like feel for them that like all so many people are like not liking it and that's got to be tough because like you do go through a filming season and you're like that was was hard I do think the best shows are on reality TV is when there's an understanding within the cast that everyone's gonna have their ups and downs but together we're making a good show yeah and I think that's where there's been like ups and downs with Summerhouse when it became less about like us making a good show and instead trying to like like push people out or that kind of thing or be like who's the who's the man of the group or whatever, which has happened with Vanderpump.
Speaker 2
But when everyone could be like, put our heads down, let's do a good show. But then it's hard because you don't know who's might come out looking the worst when it airs.
Right.
Speaker 2 So you're, you're like, why should I? It becomes about egos.
Speaker 1 After you're done filming, like, I feel like Love Island this year actually did, like, kind of explained it a little better.
Speaker 1 Like, Leah came out of the house and had no idea people loved her because she had no idea what was being shown and like what the other perspectives were.
Speaker 1 So like Real Housewives of New York City, they filmed and then they had no idea who was gonna be loved or hated.
Speaker 1 And so then they go into like it airing and they're like scrambling of like, well, I didn't meet, I didn't say this then and this, and like I had this conversation before.
Speaker 1 And so then you try and backtrack and it's like.
Speaker 2
On Bravo, it's you know a little bit more because Love Island, it's going out every day. Yeah.
With Bravo, you know by the questions that you're being asked in interviews. Yeah.
Speaker 2 So you'll see in an interview or you'll you'll hear that everyone's talking about you in interviews. So you're like, oh,
Speaker 2 shoot, I think I'm the problem.
Speaker 2 But it's, it's like, they're also everyone could have been talking about someone else. So it's like, right.
Speaker 2 It's basically like after a hangout, which group are then you hanging out with of who's talking about who? You could talk about anyone after the hangout.
Speaker 2 So anyway, it's just, it's interesting perspective.
Speaker 2 And I think like WWE is a perfect example of how like you need people that you like and people that you hate, but that it's, it's not always accurate and you don't always know how people are going to respond.
Speaker 2 With that said, is this why there's some like rumors going around that you might join Rony?
Speaker 2 That,
Speaker 2 okay. Who started that, Daphne? Daphne literally started that.
Speaker 1 No, I don't know who started that, but like
Speaker 1
it's a different production company. So like it's not just Bravo being like, and hey, we're going to put you on this show now.
Like my contract is with my production company.
Speaker 1 And like, so it's not as easy, I think, as people would think. Now, if someone said, hey,
Speaker 1 we want you to be on Real House Wise of New York City next year and not Summerhouse, like would I do that?
Speaker 1 I would definitely think about it.
Speaker 1 Like I would definitely have to weigh like certain pros and cons because that's me going into, that would be a repeat of me going into an established friend group and then like having to film with them.
Speaker 1 And like,
Speaker 1
I wouldn't have a friend. And so like, I would actually be really nervous to do that.
Would it probably fit with my lifestyle now better? A hundred percent.
Speaker 1 It doesn't really even cross my mind day to day because it's like I'm on Summer House, so like that's my show. I don't need to be on Real Housewives of New York City.
Speaker 1 But the only reason I wanted to say all of this was because I felt bad, like, that they were all not that I even know the drama or the storylines, but I felt bad seeing that they were all getting such hate.
Speaker 1 And I was like, they're all a second season cast. They, they're, they don't know what they don't know.
Speaker 2 As they say in sports, they're a young team.
Speaker 1
They're a young team. They're young teams.
They're a young team. And they're rebuilding.
And I think we have to give them a little bit of grace.
Speaker 1 Yeah, let's do it how the men do it when they support their favorite teams that suck. They're a young team.
Speaker 2
It's weird because I guess people have been saying, like, oh, it's boring. It's boring.
But you can't get mad at the girls necessarily. It's a group project.
You know, it's a full group project.
Speaker 1
You can't get mad at like just one because she's not giving. It's like, okay, well, this one's not giving this.
And it's so it's a group project.
Speaker 2 And not to have toxic positivity but it takes one person sleeping with another person's husband and then you have sandoval and vanderpop's back so maybe let's you know let's keep our eyes open yeah and our legs oh goodness gracious um i had one more note about cats okay yes and we'll take it which i was talking to you a little bit about but i realized the i have a joke in my netflix special I don't know if I put it in it.
Speaker 2 Anyway, it's about how cats just have really bad PR
Speaker 2
and dogs have like amazing PR, and cats' PR is horrible. Like the pickleball PR and dog PR, I think, work together.
Yeah.
Speaker 2 Because every dog in every movie is like the best friend, and he's there for him, and that Marley and me and Erba, they play fucking basketball. Cats in movies are always an afterthought.
Speaker 2 They're never part of the storyline.
Speaker 2 It's always like there's a cat sleeping in the background, not dealing with unwoman, or sitting on the villain's lap. So associating it with evil, or a witch and like cursing people.
Speaker 2 And no one sees how cats actually are like so when people like you get a cat and you're like oh my god i had no idea it's not your fault the media has brainwashed me the media's brainwashed you it's and there's a war on cats in the media there's a war because if i was actually show like a tv show of hannah with my and who has a cat you wake up my cat's sleeping with me.
Speaker 2
Get up to eat, the cat's coming with me. We go watch TV, the cat's with me.
But in movies, the cat doesn't want to be on camera. Can go.
Speaker 1 Here's the thing: cats are just so private.
Speaker 2
Cats are like, I'm not pretending to cuddle with you with this man with a like huge camera in my face. Like, I'm not getting involved with that.
Yeah.
Speaker 1 They I would dare to say cats have boundaries and we should take, we should take a note.
Speaker 2 Dogs are a little attention, Hori.
Speaker 2 Did I say on the pod how
Speaker 2 Des lost his dog I think I did he lost this dog in Ireland and he was like with a new family by nighttime it was it was
Speaker 2 sleeping in a new family's bed at night
Speaker 1 butter would never no Daphne would Daphne
Speaker 1 might
Speaker 1 if there's tuna treats let's be honest
Speaker 2 You've been gone for a couple days and Daphne's not happy.
Speaker 1 She's not happy.
Speaker 2 And she has full-time cat sitting. She has a rotating.
Speaker 1
Here's the thing. She's such a bitch.
Daphne is her mom. I mean, she literally, she lashes out and then she's like, sorry.
Speaker 1 And I'm like, it's fine. You're so cute.
Speaker 1 She has round-the-clock hair. This bitch was not alone for, she was alone for like.
Speaker 1
I'm not kidding, eight hours. My brother left on a Sunday night and I was arriving on a Monday morning.
Like she truly was not alone for
Speaker 1 more than 12 hours. Shit on my living room carpet.
Speaker 1
I got the stain up, but the smell is, it's, it's suffocating me. It's killing me.
I had to, I had to put all my windows up and like shut the doors last night to like air it out.
Speaker 1 I literally have to move. And I'm like, why did you do that?
Speaker 1 I'm like, did you literally do that just because you were like alone for a couple hours until I got home?
Speaker 2 And she, I think you spoiled her.
Speaker 2 You spoiled her. So she, like, whenever she's alone, she's like, this is unheard of.
Speaker 1
She's like, I'm not doing this. She's like, I she, because she knows, I think she knows, like, I clean everything up immediately.
And she's like, this will get her home.
Speaker 2 Maybe she didn't love that she wasn't the first grid post in your last Instagram dump.
Speaker 1 But she doesn't have Instagram, so how would she know
Speaker 2 if you told her? And
Speaker 2 oh, and
Speaker 2
um, cats actually know what's going on at all times. I don't know how.
I want to let you guys know we have a couple tickets left in Orlando coming up this weekend on Saturday.
Speaker 2 So, because we added another show in Orlando, so get tickets if you're going to be in Orlando. And then we have Connecticut, Ohio, Windsor, and a couple tickets left in New York.
