Speaker 1 Hey, it's Paige DeSorbo from Giggly Squad. In case you didn't know, Abercrombie's active brand is YPB, aka your personal best.
And YPB's performance fabrics do not disappoint.

Speaker 1 Their best-selling Sculpt Lux fabric is smoothing, sculpting, and designed for high-intensity workouts.

Speaker 1 So, whether you're hitting Pilates or getting your gift shopping done, new active sets are made to keep up with the holiday hustle. Shop YPB Active in the Abercrombie 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 1 Sup, gigglers. Gary, fix your Wi-Fi.

Speaker 2 Manifest that shit.

Speaker 1 We can't be managed.

Speaker 1 I mean, the day just got away from me.

Speaker 2 What's up, my giggleristas?

Speaker 2 I think that's cute as fuck. I think that's cute.

Speaker 2 Wait, I don't know why this just triggered this, but this is so funny.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 So we, when we got home from tour, we got home, what, Friday night, we drove home from Atlantic City, and then Saturday, my mom, like, stayed with me all day, and then like took the train later in the day.

Speaker 1 And one of the things she said to me was, Hannah's always, like, so happy, like, she's always in such a good mood.

Speaker 1 And I was like, no, literally, I think I could count on my hand, like, how many times I've actually seen her, like, upset or in a bad mood. And she goes, and like she's so silly.

Speaker 1 Like everything she says is like silly. And I like start laughing.
I'm like, no, I know. She's just so funny.
And she goes, it's interesting because

Speaker 1 if anyone else had Hannah's personality, you would hate them. You would get so annoyed.

Speaker 2 But everything she says, you're dying laughing.

Speaker 2 And I start laughing just like thinking about you.

Speaker 1 She's like, she's like your real best friend. I was like, no,

Speaker 1 I think everything she says is pure comedy gold.

Speaker 2 She's not as funny as you think she is.

Speaker 2 She's the average person who would be like, okay, we get it. She's like,

Speaker 2 there's something wrong with you guys.

Speaker 1 You think everything is funny.

Speaker 2 I'm like, no, it is.

Speaker 2 No,

Speaker 2 we have issues. We have issues.
Well, thank you, Kim, for calling me a little silly goose. We had fun on tour.
No, we had vibes. We had fun with your mom on tour.
However,

Speaker 2 we almost died again. No, we almost died.
Should we discuss? Should we go right into it?

Speaker 2 Well, I decided, I have a rule. If it takes less than three hours to drive somewhere, we're going to drive instead a plane.
Because even if a plane's quick, the whole driving, so whatever.

Speaker 2 So this took three and a half hours to drive, but I was like, we're doing it. We're going at night.
We're going to fly through traffic. Because after shows, you're all hyped up.

Speaker 1 You're hyped up. There's also something like about being on the East Coast where like you're like, well, we'll just drive.
Like we were in Washington, D.C.

Speaker 2 I'm not flying. We don't know where anything is on the East Coast.
We just know that we're close.

Speaker 1 I have a better gauge of where we are when we're on the East Coast, obviously, than like the West Coast.

Speaker 2 Florida, Rhode Rhode Island, same shit.

Speaker 1 We do a show in our last show in Washington, D.C., and then the next day we have to be in Atlantic City.

Speaker 1 So, after Washington, D.C., we're like, let's just get in a car service, drive to Atlantic City.

Speaker 2 And it was kind of a last-minute decision on our part. I'm like, fuck it, we're driving.

Speaker 1 It was a last-minute decision. Also, like, I like driving because it's just me, you, and Grace.
So, like, we're all together. It's like easy.
Three is like an easy number.

Speaker 2 But, well, the first drama started where you go in the back where you like to go because because you like to lay down. Oh, I'm

Speaker 2 going to go back to the back. I get the third row.

Speaker 2 But Kim was in the car with us, and I'm not putting Kim in the back. Kim is mother, period.
I said, Kim, you go in the seat over there, and you're not sitting next to the strange man in the front.

Speaker 2 And neither is Grace.

Speaker 1 Grace is our CEO, so she gets a bucket seat.

Speaker 2 So she gets a bucket seat. So I go into the back, and I can feel your eyes looking at me.
I can feel you being like, how did I do this?

Speaker 2 And I'm like, I feel like I'm like, I felt like a cat.

Speaker 1 I was like, who are you this is the back of a row this is for sleeping i had two

Speaker 2 on the end i'm like forget i'm here and you're watching like this is us no you're watching grace anatomy and like you're all in on it and deep in grey's anatomy so i'm in the moment tries to talk to you and you're like we're watching i'm watching grey's anatomy what do you think this is a fucking ted talk no when i travel i have to get into my own cocoon and i have to be in myself be with myself kim's like why did you bring me here if you're just gonna watch grey's anatomy the whole whole time?

Speaker 1 She's a good energy source to have.

Speaker 1 So we're in the car. We're driving.
The three, Hannah, Grace, and my mom are like chatting, talking. It's like

Speaker 1 the first hour of the ride. I'm headphones watching my iPad.
Something comes over me. I think maybe I saw Hannah laughing and I was like, what is Hannah laughing about?

Speaker 1 I want to know what they're talking about.

Speaker 2 We were actually having like a really cute talk with Kim and we were like talking about you a little, like when you were little or something.

Speaker 2 I was looking back at you and I, you sensed there was fun animation.

Speaker 1 i sensed that there's like good combo happening so i take my headphones off and i'm now i'm engaged in the conversation i don't notice it as much when we're like leaving washington dc because it's probably what like 11 p.m

Speaker 1 and there was like a little bit of traffic we had it's a car service it wasn't an uber so like i'm really not thinking about it We're on the road now. We're like an hour and a half into the car ride.

Speaker 1 Maybe two hours into the car ride. and i take my head it's like midnight yeah it's like midnight i'm now alert in the car and i'm noticing the driver and i

Speaker 1 and i rarely am i rarely ever like this but if there's one thing about me i do not fuck around in cars

Speaker 1 like

Speaker 1 i don't know if in a past life something did happen to me in a car because like even in high school like i've never thought it was funny to go super fast like i do not no i was always the kid in the car that was like put your seatbelt on and like don't do that like i don't like any shenanigans that's why i don't drive yeah that's why i don't drive i said i'm not i'm not we don't

Speaker 1 care hannah doesn't have a license it's for the greater good

Speaker 2 But my thing is, because I don't drive, I don't have those little illusions. Certain signs.

Speaker 2 I have no fucking clue what's going on. Someone could ram a curb and I'll be like, do you want to go to Wendy's? Like, I don't care.

Speaker 1 and I don't notice anything and I'm just here for fun I'm here for the funsies so the first thing I notice is we're in a two-lane highway we're in the left lane tractor trailer's in the right lane he's coming up to like pass us and our driver starts to go into like the shoulder where like the bumps are so like we're feeling it and I feel that he's and I'm like the tractor trailer is

Speaker 1 getting that close to us that like we need to be in the shoulder of the lane.

Speaker 1 Like is this guy like losing control of the car that kerfuffle gets like fixed he's like back on the road okay now I'm alert now I'm watching his eyes in the rear view mirror from the third row and he's taking like really long blinks and I'm like this fucking guy is he like see I'm trying to see him but it's gotten dark at that point and at this point we're Everything's gone silent in the car and we're all speaking with our eyes.

Speaker 2 I'm looking at you. You're looking at your mom.
She's looking at Grace. Grace is looking at me.
I'm looking at you. This goes on for like 30 minutes

Speaker 2 where this guy keeps doing weird shit.

Speaker 1 Doing weird shit. In the beginning of the car ride, which Hannah pointed out, this is great detective work.

Speaker 1 Hannah pointed out that in the beginning of the car ride, we pulled off to a gas station, which I thought when you gotta go, you gotta go. This guy had a pee.

Speaker 1 We're about to get in on a three-hour car ride. He's gotta go.
Hannah said,

Speaker 1 flags up. That was weird.
I've never had a driver stop in the beginning of the ride. Usually they're a little bit more prepared.
He got a snack.

Speaker 2 So yeah, this is the thing. He, 25 minutes in, it's like, can I pull over? I've never had it.
Also, I'm like, pee in the, in the woods. Like, I don't know.
Like, we don't need to, whatever.

Speaker 2 I was fine with it. But then he was gone for kind of a bit and he comes back without a coffee or a Red Bull.
Yep. Which is also fucking weird.
He just got chips. So we're in full investigative mode.

Speaker 2 And that was while you were still on your iPad. And Grace and your mom, who are better at driving than me, look at each other and they were like, is he driving kind of aggressive? Yeah.

Speaker 2 So they already were on his case.

Speaker 1 Ears were perked up.

Speaker 2 We were, we were in it.

Speaker 1 So then

Speaker 1 he starts to, we're in the middle lane. He starts to go really slow.
And I, so like my head is like 55.

Speaker 2 Yeah, 55 on like a major highway.

Speaker 1 Yeah, like a, yeah. So I say to him, I speak up and I go, sir, are you okay to drive? Do you want to pull over for a little? Are you getting tired? Because I mean, it is like 12:30 at this point.

Speaker 2 Which I was so proud of you for speaking up because I didn't have the balls. I was like, I do not want to upset this man.
Take me out. If that's how I die, that's how I die.

Speaker 2 I'm not accusing this man of falling asleep right now. He could be passed out in the car, and I wouldn't want to wake him up.
Me and Hannah are in the third row, bro.

Speaker 1 As soon as I speak up and start talking, Hannah crouches down

Speaker 1 behind the seat and like ducks her head down.

Speaker 2 It is so funny that we did reality TV because I can't explain to people how much I hate confrontation. I like it.
I remember.

Speaker 2 No, but you were so polite about it. You're just like, sir, are you okay? I think it was so awkward because it was so obvious that he wasn't okay.
Because he was like,

Speaker 2 he was not okay. He kept not using his blinker because I think he was just like

Speaker 2 like he was falling asleep and then going to another lane to pretend he was on purpose when it wasn't. Yes, and it wasn't.

Speaker 1 Not a blinker in sight. Hannah.

Speaker 2 And then there were some turn.

Speaker 1 No, a blinker has not been used at one point in this car.

Speaker 2 And look, I don't know how to use a blinker, but I know you have to use it. You were right.

Speaker 1 You were so spot on.

Speaker 2 And then there was a turn he had to do, and he like did not

Speaker 2 act at me. Do you remember what I said?

Speaker 2 I said, this is,

Speaker 2 I whispered to you, I said, this is how I drive during my nightmares when I have to drive and I can't control the car. So you can just imagine wake up.

Speaker 1 How Hannah drives in her dream is how it felt being in this car. So he then does this really crazy turn, like off of an exit to like get on like this different highway.

Speaker 1 And I mean, we almost go full force into a cement wall. And that's when I go, okay.

Speaker 1 So then I speak up again and I go, sir, do you mind pulling off on the next exit? And he goes, yeah, no problem. Pulls off on the next exit.

Speaker 1 I go, I go literally any parking lot, pick a parking lot.

Speaker 2 Stop laughing because Paige is just in like, we need to fix this mode where I'm thinking.

Speaker 2 we have to explain to this guy what's going on even though he's pretending he's fine so you just go any parking lot and he's like the wahwa do you want pie you pay page is like right here so it's this bank that's closed and we're sitting there and paige is like i'm calling a uber to her mom like well she shows us.

Speaker 2 Yes. So I'm like, okay, perfect.
Then it says 13 minutes away. So I'm like, are we all just going to sit here in silence for 13 minutes?

Speaker 2 And the guy's like, do you want food? And Paige is like, no, thank you. And I'm just like, oh, God, this is so awkward.

Speaker 2 So then I made it 10 times more awkward than it needed to be.

Speaker 1 But I was also pissed.

Speaker 2 Well, you were pissed. And then.

Speaker 2 I don't, okay, I was scared. So then finally, your mom is like, Paige, let's just go to a Wawa.
Yeah.

Speaker 1 Which was like, go to a Wawa.

Speaker 2 Shout out to Wawa.

Speaker 1 She's like down the road. So I text the Uber driver.

Speaker 1 It was a girl, which a saint of a woman. I text the Uber driver and I go, I'm literally across the street at the Wawa.
Can you pull in there? And she goes, yep, no problem. So the three of us.

Speaker 2 And I'm like, are we sure a woman driver is the next best option?

Speaker 1 So when, so we get into the Wawa, the three of us, and the Uber is like, well,

Speaker 2 we start having a meeting. Yep.
So all of us are whispering. We're like, okay, what the fuck is going on? And we're whispering to each other, like, are you okay? What's happening?

Speaker 2 And then he comes in the Wawa, and Grace and I run into the bathroom. And then Grace and I are hiding in the bathroom.

Speaker 1 And then he walks out, gets back into the car, and then at that point, our Uber is like about to.

Speaker 2 Still doesn't get a coffee.

Speaker 1 Still doesn't get a coffee. Doesn't get an energy drink.
Nothing. So Hannah and Grace come out and they're like, what?

Speaker 2 You had to be like, come out.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I was like, come,

Speaker 1 we have to go get our bags. And Hannah's like, what are we saying to the guy? And I go, nothing.
We're just saying we're getting

Speaker 2 you go, I'll handle it. I'll handle it.

Speaker 2 I go, I'll talk. I'll talk.
You go, I'll handle it. I go, okay.
So then Paige just walks first

Speaker 2 and she just starts taking the stuff out of the car. And the guy's like, Are you okay? And she goes, Yep.
And she just starts taking it out of the car and walks out.

Speaker 2 So then I'm left standing with him. And he's like, What's going on? And I go, Our friend's picking us up.

Speaker 1 so then he goes okay i'll wait for your friend to come and i was like it's okay but this is like 1 a.m at a wawa in the middle of nowhere us three beautiful women four beautiful women just helpless on the corner all i could think in my head is no fucking way is my legacy stopping at dead in atlantic city age 31 i refuse like there's just no way that's where my journey ends.

Speaker 2 But no, we were in a death trap, but then our people pleasing was we're going to stay in that death trap because we didn't want to make this guy uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 But then part of me was like, is he falling asleep? Or like, was he just like

Speaker 2 drunk or high or really bad at driving? And then at one point, you were like, do I have to drive? Yeah. Like, I'll tell him that.
That was my first thought.

Speaker 1 I was going to say, hey, why don't you pull over? I was going to say, like, is this your car or like the company's car? Because why don't you pull over and all just drive the like next 45 minutes?

Speaker 1 But then I didn't want him, I didn't want to say that and him be like, no, no, no, what are you talking about? And thus get into like a kerfuffle. And I was like, you know what?

Speaker 1 Path of least resistance. I'm getting a car, making it sure that it's right here.
Then we're leaving.

Speaker 2 My favorite is how the whole time I was like, this is so awkward. And then I was the last person to speak to him, explain what was going on.

Speaker 2 And I go, look, our friend just randomly said, hey, I'm going to meet you at Wawa at the stop in New Jersey

Speaker 1 well first of all no is a complete sentence he didn't need to know where we were going or what was going on that's not what he was he also didn't help us get the

Speaker 2 bags out of the car

Speaker 2 that was so weird to me anyway it was fucking weird but then this lady came an angel

Speaker 1 an angel son from earth took us the next 45 minutes to the hard rock casino we yapped the entire way there about how we almost got killed. But honestly, Hannah, what an amazing

Speaker 1 like societal teaching moment because all of those like nerves about like saying something to him is literally because you don't ever want to make like a man feel like you're like accusing them or like saying something.

Speaker 1 But like, what was the alternative? We died in the fucking, in a fucking car accident. Like, I couldn't let it happen.

Speaker 2 You know what helped me? You know what helped me?

Speaker 2 I well it didn't help me but I saw a video that hopefully will help someone else is clearly they don't care that they're making you uncomfortable right so why are you caring that you're making them uncomfortable yeah and I think we could use this also in your early 20s when you're like with a dude and he's making you uncomfortable in whatever type of way and you're like well I don't I don't want to make him upset or an older guy who's saying weird stuff to you and you're like, well, I don't, he's making you uncomfortable.

Speaker 2 It's like when like someone, a crazy person comes up to you on the street, be crazy back. Yeah.

Speaker 1 No, all I could think was like in the next second, something's going to happen, and I'm going to be like, why the fuck didn't I say something and get us out of this situation?

Speaker 2 No, you were the champion. Who knew? You know why you did it?

Speaker 2 Because you were the only one on beta blockers.

Speaker 1 I was the only one who had a body calm.

Speaker 2 I was like, I can handle this.

Speaker 1 I was like, my blood pressure is a perfect 85.

Speaker 2 No, you saved our lives. Look, tour life is not boring.
No.

Speaker 1 That's one thing. It's not boring.

Speaker 1 Literally, never a dull moment. Then we get to our hotel at like 1 a.m.

Speaker 1 and it's just...

Speaker 2 It feels like 1:30.

Speaker 1 It's just so Atlantic City. Just the vibes and all of it.

Speaker 2 Casinos are fun because they're for like older people who hate their children but want to go to Disney Worlds.

Speaker 1 No, I just kept like thinking about like what was Atlantic City like in the 50s and 60s.

Speaker 2 I do think it was out of season. Speaking of seasons, there's this podcast called Two Dykes and a Mike

Speaker 2 that came across my algorithm. And they said something very interesting and funny.
They said summer is for gay men.

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Fall is for lesbians.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 2 And then winter is for straight women. And then like Christmas and stuff.
Yeah. And then

Speaker 2 I don't know if they finished it, but I guess then straight men is spring. And it's very, it was interesting how we all got a season.

Speaker 1 That is interesting.

Speaker 2 And bisexuals get everything, I guess.

Speaker 1 And can I tell you something to even further prove your point? For whatever reason, I think it's because it's my first like holiday season in my new apartment.

Speaker 1 I've been ordering Christmas decorations. Can't stop.

Speaker 1 And I'm never, I'm never like a Christmas person. Like, I want to decorate.
I want to do all these things. Can't find the right garland.
driving me nuts.

Speaker 2 Babe, it's not even Halloween yet. I know.

Speaker 1 Well, I already have my pumpkins out, so like

Speaker 1 I'm on to the next thing.

Speaker 2 We're on to the next thing. Also, people have been asking, we are dressing up for our Seattle show.

Speaker 1 We are dressing up.

Speaker 2 So, if you don't dress up, you won't be stoned or anything. But if you do dress up, we are supporting you.

Speaker 1 Someone did

Speaker 1 email me. Someone did DM me and ask if there was like a theme.
No theme. Hannah and I were going to do like a together one, but now we're doing, doing, we're being individualists.

Speaker 2 Yeah, we're being individualists.

Speaker 2 Also, another side note about TikTok. I don't know if it's just because I spent the last two days scrolling as my mental health, but the algorithm, my algorithm is so bad right now.

Speaker 2 Like, first of all, you know,

Speaker 2 that's another thing about babies.

Speaker 2 The boys dancing. Have you seen that thing where the guys go, I can't do this for your daughter.
I love your daughter. I can do this.

Speaker 1 And then they dance.

Speaker 1 No.

Speaker 2 All I know is if you watch one thing right now with TikTok, it thinks you're obsessed with it. And then we'll show you like

Speaker 2 40 of the same videos. The Gracie Abrams song, which I love, but it's a sad song.
And I don't like sad songs to me stuck in my head. I think it subconsciously is bad for you.

Speaker 2 Everything is this Gracie Abrams song. And then...
I am obsessed with the Menendez brothers right now, but like, it's the only three things on my feed.

Speaker 2 And it's like driving me up the wall because I know that there's other things on TikTok that I would enjoy. Yeah.
Has that happened to you? You have the same shit.

Speaker 1 A little bit, yeah. Like where like I find myself like

Speaker 1 scrolling out of the TikTok app a lot more than I usually do where I'm like, okay, I'm over TikTok.

Speaker 2 I guess you can say not interested in stuff, but that's not the whole point of an algorithm. But long story short, I am enthralled by the Menendez Brothers, and in November, they might be released.

Speaker 1 Did you watch the Netflix like actual document? You did. I might watch it tonight.
Is it really cute?

Speaker 2 I highly recommend. I highly recommend people watch.
And it still didn't have all the information because I got even more from TikTok. But the Ryan Murphy one is like cute.

Speaker 2 It doesn't represent

Speaker 2 really things accurately at all. It scratches the surface.

Speaker 1 First of all,

Speaker 2 I mean, it makes me so upset for these men, but basically they said that in the jury, all the men said the guys were guilty, and then all the women said that the guys were,

Speaker 2 it was manslaughter, which means like

Speaker 2 that it was murder, but it wasn't like premeditated. It was a reason behind it of defense.

Speaker 2 Well, it was premeditated, but that there was like a reason behind it.

Speaker 2 They were feared for their life. They were fearful for their life.
It's because the women were able to empathize with abuse, where the men, sexual abuse was not a thing for men in the the 90s.

Speaker 2 Which is just the church and all that stuff came out later, but it was like the timing. And because OJ just got, um,

Speaker 2 was not guilty. The DA was like, we cannot let another like rich person get away.

Speaker 2 And the next, sorry, I like don't know how to use words with law stuff. See you in court.

Speaker 2 You're the worst lawyer ever.

Speaker 2 But the next trial,

Speaker 2 they basically weren't able to

Speaker 2 show the abuse portion because the judge said that abuse was like purely a woman's thing.

Speaker 2 And then people are like, okay, why did he kill the mom? Why did he kill the mom? You should never kill anyone. I'm saying that right now.
You should never kill anyone.

Speaker 2 But it did come out that Lyle was getting sexually abused by the mom.

Speaker 1 See, that's not in the show.

Speaker 2 No, no. Okay, you know what?

Speaker 1 I actually, I would have killed those people

Speaker 1 so long before, like, that's. yeah.

Speaker 2 This is my thing, too. And it's obviously, you should not kill, you should not kill people, and they needed to go to jail to because that was insane.
But they were saying that, like, the men,

Speaker 2 the lawyer said that these boys, she could tell they were horribly abused because they actually like did well in prison because they had some structure and they weren't getting abused, and they actually like enjoyed having a place of like safety.

Speaker 1 I'm literally, I'm getting my period next week, and I'm crying. That makes me so

Speaker 1 sad for them.

Speaker 2 No, I know.

Speaker 2 And then all these men that will say, like, oh, like, you don't fucking kill your parents, whatever.

Speaker 2 It's like, yeah, but then if you tell that man, like, someone touched your daughter, they'd be like, I'll fucking kill that guy. No.
That's what they did.

Speaker 2 They had this macho and they were insane, and their brains are fully formed, and they thought that was the best solution, which is not. Killing is never the right solution.

Speaker 1 No, if you abused my child or did something to my family member, I don't, I'm killing you. I don't give a fuck.

Speaker 1 If you touched my child, oh my God, I would literally shoot you in the face and call the police on myself.

Speaker 2 So it's, it's very interesting. And at the least it could do could spread awareness to, you know, boys get abused too.

Speaker 2 And whew, I'm deep in it right now. Like, I'm so upset about it.
And also, they kept calling the fucking lawyer crazy, which.

Speaker 2 Mind you, whenever you look back to a story with a girl that they were calling crazy, this bitch is always right. She's always ahead of her time.
Yeah.

Speaker 2 And that's just history.

Speaker 1 That's her story. No, it's...

Speaker 2 Oh my god.

Speaker 1 Okay, I'm glad you watched that because I was.

Speaker 1 I highly recommend it. I was debating if I was going to watch it or not or if it was just going to be like a repeat of like everything I've pretty much.

Speaker 2 No, I think it's good, but you'll be like deeply entrenched and you... you'll keep having like dreams about it and your TikTok will blow up with it.

Speaker 1 Support for today's episode comes from Honey Love. Sometimes bras are just a must.
There's certain tops where you literally can't go outside if you're not wearing a bra, and it has to be comfortable.

Speaker 1 Honey Love has revolutionized the wireless bra game. Their bras feature supportive bonding that eliminates the need for uncomfortable wires and unnecessary bulk.

Speaker 1 I like to get a good push-up when I can here and there, but I don't need the bulk under certain outfits because there are certain tops where I don't want you to know that I'm wearing a bra.

Speaker 1 Um, okay, speaking of dreams. Oh.
So last night I

Speaker 1 am in bed. I'm sleeping.
It's about

Speaker 1 I would say it's like 4:30. I wake up, but I don't wake up where I'm like my eyes are open.

Speaker 1 Like I wake up like I'm not asleep anymore, but like I'm turning my pillow and in my head, I'm like, i kind of have to pee but not enough to like get up and go pee i'm like oh

Speaker 1 i'll catch that pee on the next wake up like i'm i'm good i really don't even think about it i think about it for a second then i fall back asleep

Speaker 1 at like 7 a.m i like I don't even know. I just like wake up and I feel like my pants and I just like touch my pants and I'm like, oh, oh my God, did I

Speaker 1 pee my pants? And I look over because Craig was at my apartment and I look over and he's not in the bed and I'm like, what the, like, what's going on? And I jump up out of bed. I run to my bathroom.

Speaker 1 I peed my, I had a pair of sweatpants on.

Speaker 2 Thank God.

Speaker 2 I peed

Speaker 1 so much in my sweatpants. I go back to my bed to like see if I peed in the bed.
Nothing's in the bed. Craig comes back into into my room.
I'm like, where were you?

Speaker 1 He was like, oh, I just like went pee in the other bathroom. And he was like, what are you doing up? And I was like, I peed my pants.

Speaker 2 And he was like, what the fuck are you talking about?

Speaker 1 And I was like, I don't know. I peed my pants.

Speaker 1 So then.

Speaker 1 I don't know how it happened. I don't know what happened.
And so then like a couple hours later, I'm like, I feel like I'm getting a UTI.

Speaker 1 And so I don't know.

Speaker 1 Usually when my immune system's down, I feel like that's when I get UTIs.

Speaker 1 I don't know if I was just like so tired or if like my bladder was like getting weak because I was getting UTI and I just peed.

Speaker 2 Well, you know, don't UTIs like give this intense feeling like you have to pee?

Speaker 1 Yeah, I wonder if like I had it

Speaker 1 and I just, my body was just like, no, we got to get it out.

Speaker 2 First of all, I got, we got some crazy texts from you today. It starts off with, I have to do a virtual recording tonight.
I I have a raging UTI. I have to go to urgent care.
I wrote, ha ha ha ha ha.

Speaker 2 Then you go, I peed the bed last night. I don't want to talk about it until the pod.
And then I didn't respond to that.

Speaker 2 I think I was like, she's just trying to get out of the pod.

Speaker 1 Just like burying my soul here. I'm like, something's going on.
And you know me, I'm so deep in Gray's anatomy right now that I'm like, Do I have a brain tumor?

Speaker 2 And that's why I couldn't wake up to like go pee?

Speaker 2 That tumor on your spine that you've been telling every Uber driver about.

Speaker 1 Bring up my tumor.

Speaker 2 Is that why when I asked you if Daphne's okay, you were like, Daphne is fine. Mama's fine.

Speaker 1 Daphne's fine, yeah. I'm the one that's like having,

Speaker 1 I'm the one that keeps going to the bathroom in the bed this week.

Speaker 2 Like, I'm the one that can't figure it out.

Speaker 2 Wait, so how's your UTI? Did you go to urgent care?

Speaker 1 I had extra pills, so I just like took those and like, hopefully

Speaker 1 it goes away.

Speaker 1 But that's what I always, this is like, okay, this is like you should not do what i do then this is my problem then i don't like finish

Speaker 1 the prescription because i'm like my symptoms went away like i'm good i took four pills and then it comes back like a month later that's like my own thing

Speaker 1 oh okay so you're like are you peeing after sex i always have extra pills are you peeing after sex well that's the thing You have one job. Because here's the thing.
Well, okay, but you know what?

Speaker 1 It's a little bit more complicated than the girls like talk about. What happens when you pee before sex and then you have sex and you're like, I got a pee, but I'm like, I got no liquids in me.

Speaker 1 So you pee like a little bit of a trickle. Is that doing the job? I don't know.
So I was like trickling all weekend and then bam. It is true.

Speaker 2 You don't have sex having a pee and you can't have pee before.

Speaker 1 No, I can't have sex when I have to pee.

Speaker 2 Poop fine. Pee? No.

Speaker 1 Wait, okay, wait.

Speaker 2 I made Craig so uncomfortable the other day.

Speaker 1 I literally couldn't wait to tell you about this conversation. This is such a TMI conversation, but such a combo with like girlfriends, I feel like.

Speaker 1 So remember the one time when you farted when British Dave went down on you?

Speaker 1 I think about it all the time.

Speaker 2 I think about it all the time because like

Speaker 1 everyone feels that. Like at some point, you're like, oh my God, if I farted right now, it would be like the worst possible time ever.

Speaker 2 I feel like I never have to fart until the worst possible times. Like the second I'm in doggy, I'm like, I have to fart.

Speaker 1 Like it's like so embarrassing. So I like brought it up to Craig.
I was like, do you ever feel like you have like have to fart when you like are about to have sex?

Speaker 1 And he was just like, I don't think I've ever felt that ever in my life.

Speaker 1 And I was

Speaker 1 now like when it happens, like after we have sex, I have to tell him.

Speaker 2 I'm like, there was a moment where I felt like.

Speaker 2 Are you at that point in your relationship that? No, you'll never get there where like you'll fart to be cute and funny.

Speaker 1 Never. I'll never get there.

Speaker 2 See, like every now and then, comedically, timing-wise, I'll throw it in. But I have farted because I wanted the guy to break up with me.

Speaker 1 Okay, I'm going to say something controversial. Farting, I would say, is universally funny.
Like everyone can laugh at like an untimely fart noise.

Speaker 1 It's never been on like the top of my comedy list.

Speaker 1 I can appreciate it because I can get it, but I've never like been in a situation where I'm like a great timed fart right now would really bring the joke full circle.

Speaker 2 You know, like, you know what to really bring this home?

Speaker 2 Do you know what this conversation needs? But I get like a fancy.

Speaker 2 I hate farting.

Speaker 2 I actually would prefer farting in front of my husband than my friends. Like, I, I would, I really don't want to fart in front of my friends.
If it smells, I feel so bad.

Speaker 2 Like, I'm like, you can unfriend me. Like, that was horribly fucked up of me.

Speaker 1 That's like, I don't, okay, but I don't think I'm in that category because I feel like

Speaker 1 if you're around me and you have to fart, like, you have no problem letting it out. You're like, my stomach hurts.
Yes, you're like a little, you try and keep it a little bit quiet, but like,

Speaker 1 you're not like farting loud, but like, Nana's gonna hate this unfortunately.

Speaker 2 My thing is, my rule with farting with men is

Speaker 2 if they fart, you then have like about 20 seconds where you can respond with a fart and it doesn't count okay I don't subscribe to that feminism but you that's equal opportunity yeah so like if he farts and he thinks it's so funny I like to if I have one that I've been holding let it out so then if he gets upset I go and that is called sexism And that is double standards.

Speaker 1 We're just making men pull over from the road because they can't drive and then farting on them.

Speaker 2 So

Speaker 1 we truly are a feminist podcast. We're like, you know what? You've lost a privilege.

Speaker 2 Speaking of dating drama, I want your opinion because the internet is divided about

Speaker 2 Kayla,

Speaker 2 the girl who dated Travis Kelsey. Okay.
She went on Angel Reese's pod.

Speaker 1 Yes, yes.

Speaker 2 And Angel Reese said, Tell me the craziest thing you've ever done.

Speaker 2 And Kayla responded and said, a guy broke up with me or he left me for someone who was famous. So for Halloween, I dressed up as that famous person.

Speaker 2 So then immediately everyone's like, okay, we did one Google. It's Tiana Taylor.

Speaker 2 And then Tiana Taylor posted some like long rant about it. They saw that.
So this is my question to you. There's a couple of sides of it.
One,

Speaker 2 is it like,

Speaker 2 I don't get why that's crazy. Like, I don't get the point.
Like, who won out of that, you dressing up as her? Like, is it giving fan behavior? Like, what are you stalking her?

Speaker 2 Like, I don't know what that was. Are you trying to have a threesome with that? I don't know.
Two,

Speaker 2 is it accurate? Because she's giving a crazy story. Yeah.
It's like, it is kind of a funny, crazy story. She's giving the tea.
She's, she showed up to the pot.

Speaker 2 Yeah, she was like, I have a great, I've been waiting for

Speaker 1 this question.

Speaker 2 Yes, like, let me be not relatable, but

Speaker 2 um, entertaining, yeah.

Speaker 2 Or three,

Speaker 2 Tayana jumping into it.

Speaker 2 It's like,

Speaker 2 what's going on?

Speaker 2 Who is driving the Uber right now? Who is in charge of the truck?

Speaker 1 What did Tayana say?

Speaker 1 Wasn't it the guy? Is it the guy that she has children with? Like, did she end up going out to have children?

Speaker 2 Yes, but she's not with him anymore. Iman Schumpert from the Knicks.

Speaker 1 Okay, if she had gone on to date him and then they broke up, I would expect a certain type of response. Her then going on and like having children with this man and like now being broken up with him.

Speaker 1 First of all, I think she should have stayed silent through the whole thing. I don't think she needed to do a response at all.
For sure. What is the girl's name that went on Angel Rees's podcast?

Speaker 2 Kayla.

Speaker 1 Okay, as a listener, I think that's fucking hilarious.

Speaker 2 Like that's great. And would I ever do that? I'm laughing, I'm not thinking about it.

Speaker 1 Would I ever do that? Absolutely not. But the fact that she did that, I think that's hilarious.

Speaker 1 And also, if I'm Tiana while they're dating, I'm being like, she's obsessed with me, but also like, that is funny. Like, I'm trying to think.

Speaker 2 You know, I think it was because, you know, look, I guess she was not in her right mind because she was upset. And she wanted to let him know.
That's something I know. Also,

Speaker 2 I'm a girl, okay?

Speaker 1 I've been surrounded by girls. That is not the craziest thing I've ever fucking heard.
Is it unique? Have I never heard that response before? Absolutely. But is it that crazy?

Speaker 2 I would argue it's a compliment. Yeah, I would be

Speaker 2 like, that's what I wasn't understanding. I don't think it was crazy.

Speaker 2 It's giving you telling him you have good taste and I like your outfits and I'm going to dress up a sweet.

Speaker 1 It's like, I'm a fan. I'm going to stay a fan.
Have fun with him, sis. Like, I don't.

Speaker 2 That is what I was getting. That's why, like, when Tayana was mad, I was like, I think we're all getting mad at the wrong people.
I think she

Speaker 2 likes you.

Speaker 1 She should have, I feel like she should have just said nothing.

Speaker 2 I'm trying to think. If a guy was in a situationship, left her, starts dating me, and then she dresses up as a girl who doesn't brush her hair and wears jorts, I'd be like, that's just funny.

Speaker 2 I think that's funny. Like, that's funny.

Speaker 2 So, anyway, I didn't know how to feel from the situation because there were so many moving pieces. But let people tell stories on podcasts.

Speaker 1 No, people were getting so mad. See, that's why people get so censored then because it's like, okay, sorry, I was like being myself and you hate it.
And it's also like, if I'm not myself, you hate it.

Speaker 1 So it's

Speaker 1 who cares? She didn't like, no one got hurt in her dressing up.

Speaker 2 No one got their feelings. No one

Speaker 2 at the end of the day.

Speaker 2 Did anyone get hurt? Arguably, I think the problem was she was trying to hurt someone, but everyone was like, that outfit looks great. You clearly like Tayana.

Speaker 2 And I don't know if he noticed the photo.

Speaker 1 No, I think it's fucking hilarious. Also, like,

Speaker 2 i'm for girls being crazy he wronged you you want to do something crazy where no one gets hurt have at it no one gets hurt or arrested pop off i'm gonna say something about nagging okay i saw a tick tock about this um in between all my mena's algorithms Someone basically was like, you're lucky if your girl's nagging you because it means she still cares.

Speaker 2 The second she stops nagging you means you're fucking done. And she's not nagging you, by the way.
They're warnings.

Speaker 2 If she starts nagging you, like I remember once I told this guy I was dating early on, I said, Look, you don't have a job right now.

Speaker 2 That's fine. We all lose our job.

Speaker 2 But in six months, if you still don't have a job,

Speaker 2 I'm not going to win here. Yeah.

Speaker 2 And he looked at me. He thought I was kidding.
Three months in, I said, How's the resume going? You could say I'm naggy. Bitch, I'm just warning you because

Speaker 2 if I ask you thrice, if I ask you thrice,

Speaker 2 you're not going to hear from me again.

Speaker 2 Thrice? Hannah, I love it.

Speaker 2 I love it.

Speaker 1 Don't make me ask thrice.

Speaker 2 Don't make me ask thrice. Because I don't think you should, you want to be in a relationship where you have to nag a guy.
No.

Speaker 2 But any to the three guys listening who are straight, if your girl starts to nag you, you best listen up.

Speaker 1 Look, here's the other thing. If you are in a heterosexual relationship and you are the woman, we're sorry.
It's just science that when you start dating the person,

Speaker 1 you have to make them a little bit better because you're already so much better than them. So like it would actually be mean if you didn't make them a little better right from the jump.

Speaker 2 I do have to say the second I stop caring, it's so sad. It's so sad.

Speaker 1 If you see Craig wearing flip-flops with jeans in the future, I've stopped caring and you should check on that man.

Speaker 2 Well, I think he listened to you.

Speaker 1 Yeah, 100%.

Speaker 2 So he loves that you push him to be better.

Speaker 1 Let's all remember that when Summerhouse comes out this year. If you think I'm mean to Craig, it's because I care.

Speaker 1 It takes me a little bit of time to introduce something into my routine, but something that I got the hang of really quickly was Symbiotica liposomal vitamin C.

Speaker 1 I started drinking them when we went on tour because the benefits were just too good to ignore. Collagen production, glowing skin, antioxidants.

Speaker 1 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 1 I've actually even added it into my water bottle sometimes. I also love Symbiotica's sea moss pouches.
They help with digestion, bloating, and healthy skin.

Speaker 1 I'm always looking for anything to help my skin. They're clean and convenient, the best combination.

Speaker 1 I spent the entire day on Sunday at Central Park.

Speaker 2 Oh, you're not doing well. No.

Speaker 2 I'm worried.

Speaker 2 No, reinforcements need to be. Wait, like you were like, I need some.
Wait, were you with Craig?

Speaker 1 I was like, I,

Speaker 1 well, earlier in the week, I was like, Sunday, I really want to go to Central Park, like, and, like, walk around and do, like, a good walk and like, maybe go to lunch.

Speaker 1 And he was like, oh, my God, I've literally waited for three years for you to ask me to do anything

Speaker 1 like

Speaker 1 cute like that. And my brother was in town.
And so me and Craig walked to the park. We did like a big long walk.
I got a hot dog. I got a stomachache, obviously, immediately after.

Speaker 2 I got a stomachache and a hot dog two for one.

Speaker 1 I was like, I have to run home.

Speaker 1 It was so nice. Like I really,

Speaker 1 for I've lived in New York for 10 years. I think I've, this is disgusting.
I think I've been to Central Park five times.

Speaker 2 Well, now you live close to it. I mean, not to be all like New York City kid, but I went to school in the Upper West Side and after school, we'd go to Columbus Circle

Speaker 2 and we'd hang out and just like

Speaker 2 hang out at the park and like talk shit. Yeah, like picnic at the park.

Speaker 1 No, I felt so productive. It's a really, I will say it was like really nice day.
So it was like a little bit crowded, but I felt so healthy and I needed to like connect with earth.

Speaker 1 I wore ballet flats so that I could like feel the ground.

Speaker 2 Okay, people were freaking out over you showing up to the National Baseball Stadium for a

Speaker 2 batting and throwing clinic in Kitten Heels when you were distinctly told, whatever you do, whatever you do, please wear sneakers. And in my head, I go, she wore sneakers on the plane.

Speaker 2 She has sneakers.

Speaker 1 It didn't say wear sneakers. It said, don't wear any heels that could puncture the ground.
I was wearing ballet flats.

Speaker 1 Okay. I was wearing a little sling back ballet flat.
They were perfect for the occasion. And I really needed to make that Victoria Beckham crop trench work.
And it only worked with a ballet flash.

Speaker 1 Yes.

Speaker 2 I thought I had the

Speaker 1 perfect outfit for that.

Speaker 2 You did. The people loved it.
Grace posted it on our grid. I've never been so entertained by the gigglers' comments.

Speaker 2 People, it was so funny, but it reminded me when people are like, when you've realized you've never seen your best friend like full out run. Yeah.

Speaker 2 Which is funny because I feel like when you're younger, all you do is run around with your friends. All you're doing is getting drunk.
I run.

Speaker 2 Yeah, it's just, we're running. We have to run.
Even in high school.

Speaker 1 And then when you're adults, even in high school, you're running because you're like, oh, I have gym with her. Like, yeah, we're running.

Speaker 2 Yeah, you're running.

Speaker 1 But, like, once you're like in college, maybe even a little in college, because like you get drunk and you like run around and do things.

Speaker 1 But like post-college, you're not seeing, you're not seeing your friends run.

Speaker 2 No, that means you're getting robbed if you're running. But my favorite part was the whole time I was trying to explain to them that you're a prodigy.

Speaker 2 You just like refuse to to correct lean in to your sport skills and She'll like she she just has very natural good hand eye coordination anyway.

Speaker 2 She'll hit like three balls and then she's like I'm done. Yeah, they couldn't get me off the batting range.

Speaker 2 They were like you have a show tonight and I was like I was I was loving it.

Speaker 1 I was in my element ball is life at one point you said to the guy you were batting and there was maybe like 30 baseballs in the box that he was pulling out.

Speaker 1 You had already done like five to seven and you go, no problem, I'll finish the box. And I was like, what?

Speaker 2 I was like, that's insane.

Speaker 1 You're like, I'll finish the balls in there.

Speaker 2 I was like, okay.

Speaker 2 There are these hilarious videos going around also on my TikTok algorithm. Can you tell this is what I did all weekend? Yeah.

Speaker 2 But it was, it's this guy making fun of parents who are taking it too seriously. And they're like, throw the fucking ball, Jerome.

Speaker 2 No. And I'm

Speaker 2 one thing I'm going to say is that Loud and Giga Squat, I'm not going to be that parent.

Speaker 2 And it was making me laugh so hard. And Des is like, I think you're laughing hard because that's going to be you.
I am not going to, I'm going to be overly nice.

Speaker 1 Okay.

Speaker 1 Okay. You know what?

Speaker 2 I was going to walk off and I said, did you have fun? Did you have fun making mom disappointed?

Speaker 1 Because you were such a good athlete and you played for so many years, I actually do feel like you will be that kind of parent where you'll be like, as long as you had fun and you didn't get hurt, like because you know what it's like to be an athlete, where I feel like I'm different because I've never done sports like that but like I am very competitive so I so you won't have empathy for them I fear that I'm gonna be the one on the sideline like move your fucking feet move your feet

Speaker 1 yeah be like

Speaker 2 you have one job it's to pee after sex and to make contact with the ball um no people girls need to learn that at a young age so anyway we had fun playing sports we had fun on the road DC was amazing.

Speaker 1 We had so much fun on the road. I loved our outfits.
This leg of the tour. I was very, very into them.
I felt very, like, stately. You're very what? Like, stately in my outfits.

Speaker 2 Yes, we're obsessed with like matching what the stereotype of the state is in our head.

Speaker 1 Yeah, I was like, obviously, I have to wear a collar. This is a...
This is a fancy place.

Speaker 2 One other

Speaker 2 thing about dating.

Speaker 2 So everyone was sending me the sex lives of college girls. Have you watched that? I have.
Do you watch that? So the new season came out.

Speaker 1 Oh, it did?

Speaker 2 Or the new trailer. The new trailer is out.

Speaker 2 And it's, and everyone's sending it to me. I'm like, why are they sending me this? The whole trailer is about the girl saying she fucked the mascot.

Speaker 2 Hannah.

Speaker 1 Did Mindy Kaling listen to Giggly Squad and just like...

Speaker 2 Is Mindy a giggler?

Speaker 2 Or is everyone fucking mascots now? Because it it wasn't cool back in the day. It certainly wasn't.

Speaker 1 It certainly wasn't. Okay, but meeting the Nationals mascot, I like got the vibe that you were talking about, especially in college.
It is like low-key, like a famous person.

Speaker 2 So I have to, well, first, yeah, no, they're literally famous. People go more nuts over Bucky than like the quarterback.
They're like, it's fucking Bucky.

Speaker 2 Also, I did some research, and I'm pretty sure both of the mascots were girls. Okay.

Speaker 1 I like

Speaker 1 thinking about that because I felt like inside their suits, they were like short.

Speaker 2 And their energy was like a little too good. Yeah.

Speaker 1 Like they were too nice.

Speaker 2 Yeah. Yeah.
Like these are girls. Yeah.

Speaker 2 So anyway, Sex Lives of College Girls, if you knew that I

Speaker 2 have a lot of experience in this, I would have loved to help write or tag up the scene.

Speaker 1 They really, they should have called the professional who knew what she was talking about.

Speaker 1 It's kind of like limited to in Sex Life of College Girls. It's like, hello, we've done this before.
Hello.

Speaker 2 We're here. We can hear you.
We're here to help.

Speaker 2 Question from the gigglers.

Speaker 2 Are we wearing barrel jeans?

Speaker 1 Barrel leg jeans. Okay, that's an amazing question.
Thank you for bringing it to the forefront. I was definitely a little,

Speaker 1 like when they first came out, I was like, this is a trend.

Speaker 1 I don't think you need to like spend money on them. I don't think you're going to be wearing them.

Speaker 1 Like, they're not going to be like your go-to jeans, but I actually don't hate them with a ballet flat.

Speaker 2 What's the benefit of the shape of a barrel jean besides the fact that it's a barrel jean?

Speaker 2 Like, does it make your legs look longer? Like, what

Speaker 1 look longer. It's definitely, if you're short and you have short legs, it's only gonna, I feel like, emphasize that.

Speaker 2 It's gonna, yeah, so besides kind of feeling like an oompa loompa, what is the benefit of a barrel jacket? I don't think that there are any.

Speaker 2 Are

Speaker 2 booties back?

Speaker 1 Booties?

Speaker 2 Like booty boots. Like boots that go up to your ankle.
Okay. I don't think they are.

Speaker 1 No, not with anything that like you can see them. Like I have a couple booties, but like I wear them with jeans and you're not seeing that they're booties.
Yes.

Speaker 1 Yes. So, but like with like a mini skirt or a dress.
No, no, no, no.

Speaker 2 No. What about if you're wearing a capri

Speaker 2 and you want people to see the

Speaker 2 your ankle? Yeah. Because that's point of capri, but you don't want to wear a ballet flat.

Speaker 1 You have to wear. What do you wear? You have to wear like a pump.
You have to wear like a heel.

Speaker 2 Oh, God. I'm stressed out.

Speaker 1 Or like a, I guess like a... No, you have to wear like a flat or you have to wear a heel.
You're not wearing like a booty with a capri. That's.

Speaker 2 Can you wear a dad sneaker? With a capri?

Speaker 1 Yeah.

Speaker 1 You can wear a sneaker with like a flared Capri like jean.

Speaker 1 But that's again, that's also if you're short and you have short legs. It's that it's also only going to emphasize that.

Speaker 2 Okay, just come for me.

Speaker 2 I feel like flared jeans. You're tall, though.

Speaker 1 You're tall.

Speaker 1 So like you.

Speaker 2 My entire body is my torso.

Speaker 1 That's why you need to wear like a higher. I know you love low-res because you're Gen Z, but your body type actually, if you want to go by it,

Speaker 1 if you wore like a higher waist pant, it wouldn't feel as like disproportionate as you feel it is.

Speaker 2 I'm kind of loving these like good American high-waisted flare

Speaker 2 jeans or flare jeans back.

Speaker 1 Yeah, you can wear a flare. Yeah, for sure.
A boot pant.

Speaker 2 I'm going to wear one tonight. Okay, whoa.

Speaker 1 That was a good. I loved that little rapid fire.

Speaker 2 No, well, look, we need to know what's going on with fashion, and you keep us honest you know i try i really try and it's quick and easy and i'm just asking the questions we all need to

Speaker 1 i actually just got my first pair of barrel jeans i haven't even tried them on yet we're doing today's show somehow we got invited back what are you gonna wear i'm gonna wear this little like butter yellow blazer dress i think even though like

Speaker 1 I could wear something a little more fally, but like I haven't worn it and I like it. And I think I'll do an ivory boot with it.

Speaker 2 Okay, fun. I don't know if I'm obsessed with what I have, but we'll see.

Speaker 1 You know what I realized recently?

Speaker 1 I need to like fall back in love with like putting outfits together because I feel like for like the past two years of my life, I've been having to get outfits because like I need an outfit to like do things where like

Speaker 1 a couple years ago, the fun of getting an outfit was because like, oh my god, I'm going to this like new club Saturday night and like out to dinner.

Speaker 1 I need a new like, I need to pick out a fun outfit and I need to get back to like it's become work

Speaker 1 and like I need to get back to like I love picking out outfits

Speaker 2 and being on tour I was like picking out outfits for this past weekend and I was like I miss this shit you know but like also this is you loved it for a reason it's because you're good at it and then it's been spiraling I also think over the last two years like you have so many eyes on you yeah so you not only it's work but you're also getting judged for the work and then you actually forget the whole reason you like it which is to be creative and put your taste on things.

Speaker 1 No, for like the past, I would say like four to five months, I think I've been depressed and anxious for a while, but anywho,

Speaker 1 for the past four to five months, I've been like, oh, I don't know what's in style. I don't know how to put an outfit together.
Like, I really, like, did I lose my touch?

Speaker 1 Well, someone needs to guide the gigglers. Yeah, I like, I had a moment where I was like, have I lost my touch? Do I not like no? And it's like, no, I've just, I haven't been appreciating it the way.

Speaker 1 I'm just caring. Yeah, the way I like appreciated it.
And I love clothes.

Speaker 2 Oh, my God. You, you guys.

Speaker 1 I can feel my personality coming back.

Speaker 2 Paige is feeling better.

Speaker 2 Okay, because we all were worried.

Speaker 1 No, we were worried. My beta blockers have been helping me fucking thrive on tour.
I can't say enough good things.

Speaker 2 But I do have to say, obviously, we do not want the gigglers snorting beta blockers every day. Definitely not.
What else do you think has helped you?

Speaker 1 That was an attack.

Speaker 2 That was so.

Speaker 2 No, you said you went walking.

Speaker 1 That was, oh my God, I just felt like you were my therapist. Like, okay, Paige, but what other coping mechanisms that are healthy have you done?

Speaker 2 I don't love promoting drug addiction.

Speaker 1 No, I've been trying to like. Here's the thing I think that's really hard.

Speaker 2 You go, look at the.

Speaker 2 I have so much beta block cutting me right now. I could bash my head through a wall.

Speaker 1 Here's the thing I think that's another added to the fucking list on how hard it is to be a woman.

Speaker 1 You go through phases where you're like, I'm so healthy and you're in a routine and you are working out. You're like, I worked out two times this week.
That's good. I worked out three times this week.

Speaker 1 Sometimes four. Like, you can get into all these random routines.
It's when you go cold turkey and you do nothing.

Speaker 1 And then now I feel like I'm at the age where it's not even about, like, yeah, obviously I want to look hot. Like, I always want to fucking look good and feel good in my clothes.
But now I'm like,

Speaker 1 if I don't move, my brain is going right down in the dumps. So that's like a weird mind fuck,

Speaker 1 but it has made it, I think, a little bit easier for every single day for me to be like, okay, if I at least like stretch my fucking body today and like walk to my errands rather than like take an uber that's better than nothing

Speaker 1 so I have been trying to like go outside walk in the sunlight for like at least even if it's like 10 minutes to like whatever

Speaker 2 so that's well people also will be like you're working so hard like take a break and first of all i work so hard because when i'm working i'm actually my happiest it's when i'm not working that the demons will start trying to speak to me and i'm like text me.

Speaker 2 Yeah. And then, but then they tell you, okay, you have to take a break.
You've been working so hard, which is so valid, but it's when everything stops that like, I'm like, what am I doing?

Speaker 2 You want to relax. Yeah.
But then you're fighting the like, should I be relaxing? Should I not be relaxing? Anyway, it's really hard to exist on this planet.

Speaker 1 And then like, let's just, I mean,

Speaker 1 I don't even know how people do it like because we don't even have children yet, but like

Speaker 1 what is the fucking guilt when you sit on the couch and you're like, okay, I'm going to relax.

Speaker 1 And then you're like, in your head, you're like, but if I wasn't relaxing, I could be getting done like this, this, and this.

Speaker 1 That's not even on my to-do list, but like it would alleviate other things. Like, I could be doing extra stuff.
Like, that guilt is debilitating as well.

Speaker 2 It's funny you brought up kids because

Speaker 2 I think.

Speaker 2 What we're talking about is also the reason people do have kids because it was Sunday. I went to yoga.
I felt amazing. I was like feeling myself.
I was like, call my mom.

Speaker 2 I'm like, I'm the epitome of health and wellness. No, we're on that.

Speaker 1 And then like,

Speaker 2 I settled down. And then, like, four hours into the day, I'm like, I'm spiraling.
I'm spiraling. I'm spiraling.
And then I realized, like, when you're of our age, sometimes it's like, I am,

Speaker 2 I can have a kid because I can worry about something else besides the repetitive, boring thoughts in my own brain about myself.

Speaker 1 No one's more sick of me than me.

Speaker 1 Than me. Like, I am dumb.

Speaker 2 And not to go full circle, not to go full circle, but that's why Kim, what she noticed about us is so nice because it's like, I don't want to fucking be with someone all the time who's just like me.

Speaker 2 In certain ways, yes, because it makes us compatible, but I want someone who brings different thoughts and silliness to the table. Right.

Speaker 2 Right.

Speaker 2 So, long story short, I think that's why people have kids and people have friends. And people say having community is the most important thing.
And this is our mental health

Speaker 2 explosion at the end of the pod. But the problem with community is community also causes drama in your life sometimes.
No. And relationships can cause the most pain.

Speaker 2 So then it's like, okay, this is a multi-level marketing scheme. Why? And going outside cures your depression, but what happened outside is what caused the depression.

Speaker 2 What the fuck are we supposed to do?

Speaker 1 It's a spiral. That's why you have to get a cat.
They're not involved in the outside world.

Speaker 1 And that's

Speaker 1 still community.

Speaker 2 They're your only safety, your best friend. No, you texted me the cutest photo this morning of

Speaker 2 Daphne, and like,

Speaker 2 you can't, you have your heart, you have your purpose, and you have the love of your life.

Speaker 1 I absolutely love you.

Speaker 2 And she feels connected to you because you both pee in the bed. No, truly.

Speaker 1 We're sisters.

Speaker 2 We're soul sisters. You're asking me.

Speaker 1 I'm like, Daphne, I get it. I must just be so anxious.

Speaker 2 Well, I hope you don't pee again tonight.

Speaker 1 I don't think I will.

Speaker 2 Because I don't want it to be a thing, even though that would be so funny if that became a thing. And then you have to go to like a

Speaker 2 sleep specialist.

Speaker 1 They have to like watch me sleep.

Speaker 2 You have to sleep on like an Italian grandma's couch that has plastic on it.

Speaker 1 To do like sleep studies. I'm dying to do any type of sleep study.

Speaker 2 That's our next vlog. Just us sleeping.
I would move.

Speaker 2 Hannah, please.

Speaker 1 We have to.

Speaker 2 The way

Speaker 2 I would be so ready for a sleep study, I'd be like, this is where I perform my greatest.

Speaker 1 I just want them to tell me like certain things that they've noticed.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Yeah.

Speaker 2 Anywho. Anyway, I feel like we started the pod very positive, and then we did spiral at the end.

Speaker 2 Enjoy your week trying to exist.

Speaker 2 No, I hope if you're having a down time, you feel less alone and keep grinding, keep hustling in these streets. Yep.

Speaker 1 Keep giggling. And we'll see you next week.

Speaker 2 And if you're in Minneapolis, Madison, or Milwaukee, we're coming your way. Tickets are almost

Speaker 2 sold out. Grab them.
We added a couple shows and we love you. Thanks for giggling.
