We can't be managed. I mean, the day just got away from me. What's up, my gregarious gigglers? Have I said that one before? I don't know, but why did it pop into my head garage band? What's up, my garage band gigglers? Do you remember kids who knew how to use garage band? I never knew how.

I was like, they're gonna win a Tony. Yeah. They're gonna win a Grammy. They're theater kids. Yeah. With cooler outfits. Sorry, no hate to the theater kids. No hate to the theater kids, we support.

I'm always ragging on them. You are. I know. You are, you still haven't watched Wicked. I'm such a bully. Like I'm literally such a high school bully on this pod. I'm like, get in the locker, you theater nerd. I performed at New Haven

and I realized it's like where Yale is. So I got on stage and I'm like, what's up you fucking nerds. And I was like, oh my God. Wait, you're gorgeous right now. Wait, can you guys mark that time code? Why am I obsessed with your blue eyeshadow? Do you know what's so funny?

I went into the bathroom before the pod looked at myself and I said, if Paige doesn't mention my blue eyeshadow, she doesn't care about me. And you brought it up within the first two minutes. I love it. It's like, I think it's- It's something with your hair color and the blue and your eye color.

Cause your hair color is honestly your eye color. And so it's so cohesive. Wait, I'm obsessed. And you do your lips like the same color as your cheeks. You're just- Wait, it was a risk. No, I love it. What do you love?

I'm obsessed. Okay, I think this blue, it's like a matte light blue. It's either Halsey's line. No, I think it's about, it might not be. I'll put it in the newsletter. I'll put it in the newsletter. I hung out with a straight man accidentally. Where?

Recently. Why? Work stuff. Okay. Chris, tell me if I'm right or wrong. They do this thing where like, when they try to connect with you, they keep showing you YouTube videos.

And it made me feel like an outdoor cat who brings you a dead pigeon, and you go, ugh! And then you go, oh wait, that's their love language. That's- Yeah. Oh, they're trying to connect. They're trying to connect. Thank you!

That's them showing affection. Because he showed me one video, and you know you get the point after it comes, and it like- I'm like, oh my God, that's so funny. I was out there for like two minutes watching it. And like, oh, you watched the full. Yeah. And then I was like, okay, that was a one-off.

He really is passionate about this video. And like 10 seconds later, he's like, oh, watch this. And I was like, oh, this is, this is a thing. This is a thing in the community. Chris, is this what you guys do? Yeah, I call it YouTube waterboarding. Wait, YouTube waterboarding. Like men.

That was the question. What are men? What are men? I was actually, I can't even. I can't even perform a dog. Do you guys waterboard each other? Yeah. Do you ever say, bro, I don't want to watch this.

Yeah, that's why I started calling it waterboarding because people don't know what it's about. All men do is hang out and go, bro, watch this. That'll be very informative. There's something also about when I'm watching, someone's watching me watch a video, I can't enjoy the video. Me neither.

There's too much stimulation. Wait, you know when the whole men talk about, think about World War II, or talk about it, whatever? I was with a man recently, and I don't know how it came up in conversation. It was something on TV. And I was like, is that true? Do you guys really talk about World War II all the time?

And he was like, no, we talk about gladiators. And I was like, got it, got it, got it. Do you know Des studied history? Really? And now I'm realizing it's because he just wanted to learn about gladiators. Yeah, they love it. They talk about how football players

are the modern day gladiators. That's what I was told. And I was like, I see how you got there. No, I definitely see how you got there. This is the thing men love. They do love knowing about wars, but they don't like to learn from history. Yeah.

Or learn about women's bodies. Like they'll remember every like 1912 war, but they can't remember where your clit is. Like there's just like a cognitive dissonance that I've been trying to nail down. When you're talking about war, I'd like to be like, and why do you think that happened? They didn't have a good relationship with their mothers,

is why. I had the most page coded weekend I think I've ever, like if I look back on my Friday and Saturday, I'm like, this is who I I am You feel aligned in your destiny Friday I had to go to Albany because we have this like it's called Ford Orange Club and it's like a like a social club It's not like a country club. It's like a social club, whatever that means sounds important. It sounds important Like every month they have like a guest speaker or whatever Ford Orange does sound like a strain of weed Yeah, Ford Orange.

It's like, you got that good Ford Orange, right? You, look at me pretending I smoke weed. Yeah, that Ford Orange last night was crazy, bro. I smoked it. Oh God, I like, I need a YouTube series where you just get high. Like, and we count the minutes. It'll literally be just me staring at my fingernails

for two hours. Yeah, but it'd be funny. But who knows, maybe that's our ASMR. So you go to Fort Orange. So I go to Fort Orange and I have to give, like I have to be like the guest speaker, whatever, and we're driving there. My parents are coming with me

because it's like a local whatever. I have no idea what to expect. I asked zero questions. I love that. So page coded. I was just like, yep, I'll be whatever. I have no idea what to expect. I asked zero questions. I was just like, yep, I'll be there. And I have, I know what I'm wearing. So like, I don't need to know anything else. You know, I was like, yeah. And that's how she deals with Giggly Squad shows as well.

Packed my outfit and I'm done. So I get there and my mom's like, what are you gonna say? And I'm like, Kim. Kim, that's not my business. That's like a not, and it's none of my business what I say up there. So I get up there like on the stage and I'm just like looking around the room and it's just like seven rows of like white men's pictures

and like black and white photos, like frames. And I was just like, they would hate this right now. They would, these old- They're rolling in their graves with their dad bots. I'm literally up there being like, fuck the patriarchy. Do whatever you want. You start a feminist rant at this like old man rally. They're even too old for January 6th.

But it's all gigglers in the crowd. So we're just like, everyone's hyping each other up. Anyway. Okay. That's on Friday. That same day, don't you know, the FDA approves a new UTI drug. I'm getting it sent to me in my DMs. Like everyone's like,

oh my God, Paige, you're gonna wanna see this news. Yeah, people are sending it to me to send to you. It was like the first drug that they've approved in like 30 years, okay? Later that evening, I get the worst UTI I've ever gotten in my entire life. But this happens to you every week? No, I haven't. You tell me that every week.

I really haven't gotten one. Okay, I've lied sometimes. Remember when you went and missed the podcast last week? Sorry. Sorry. Sorry. I get the craziest raging UTI. I like have extra pills, whatever. I wake up Saturday morning, I telehealth it up.

I'm like, hey, I get a new prescription. Saturday night, I go with my brother and his girlfriend to the Tom Segura standup show. Chris DeStefano killed. Shout out Chrissy D. It was so much, I love, it was at MSG. It was just so fun. I was home, I was in bed by 10. It was so much, I love, it was at MSG. It was just so fun. I was home, I was in bed by 10, I was asleep by 11.

Oh. It was just gorgeous. I have a question. Yeah. Does being single correlate with less UTIs? Okay, well, you'd think. Frickin' think. Cause I'm Friday night, like obviously I'm still,

I'm 32 years old, but like I was home. So like when I step into Albany and I step onto my parents street, I'm 16. 100%. I'm 16, I have to ask to leave the house. Like I could never just leave my house. No. Like that would be- Get permission. Insane.

Ask when they want you home. So it's like Friday night. Sneak in a weed pen. 10 o'clock and I'm like, oh, burns a little. And my mom can hear me. And here's the other thing. I'm in the bathroom in my room for like a while, but my bathroom is above her bedroom.

So she knows when I'm in the bathroom. She knows when you have a tummy ache. So if I'm in there too long, she's like, what's she doing in there? Wait, that is so funny. You guys have a tummy ache. So if I'm in there too long, she's like, what's she doing in there? Wait, that is so funny. You guys have an unhealthy relationship. Very. So she comes up, I hear her coming up the stairs,

what's going on, are you okay? And like, I immediately turn 16, I'm like, I think I actually might have a UTI, but I promise I actually didn't even have sex. And she just looks at me and she goes, okay. She was like, well, you don't always have to have sex to get a UTI, you whore. I was like, yeah, because I didn't want it.

She goes, I just was giving blow jobs. I wasn't letting him go in. I just didn't know. No, but I'm like racking my brain because I'm like, how did I get one without having sex? You sat on an MSG chair with like mostly men in that stadium. I don't know. And then I was like, how did I get one without having sex? You sat on an MSG chair with mostly men in that stadium. I don't know, and then I was like, well, did I use a new soap?

And I was like, you know what? I think my immune system's just down. I'm coming up with all these things. But anyway. Anyway, you actually weren't late, but you messaged me that you might be late because Kitty was making biscuits on your face. And I realized if you have a cat and your cat's making biscuits on your face. And I realized if you have a cat

and your cat's making biscuits on your face, Google making biscuits if you don't know, I honestly don't have the time to explain it. It's dermaplaning. No, it's literally lymphatic massage. Yeah, it's amazing. I was like, yeah, de-puff me. I like to let the Googlers know where we are in our cycles.

I got my period, I woke me up yesterday morning, like violently. Okay, I'm actually so glad you brought this up because obviously I'm updating the gigglers on my egg freezing process. Yeah. Did I tell them how they want me to go on birth control? Yeah.

Oh, I did? I think so. Okay, they want me to go on birth control for like a week and I was just like, I don't want to. So I have to wait till May to see if I get my period naturally. And if I don't get it naturally, then I am gonna just do it for the week.

Do you think if you just like hang out with me enough days in a row, like my alpha energy of my period might like synchronize with yours? I actually think I am supposed to have my period right now because my boobs are a little bit big. Wait, also, wait, also, Chris, look away. I'm wearing the Skims nipple bra because I just wanted to see what it looked like.

Is that still available? Oh, you almost poked me in the eye. I'm kind of obsessed. I need to get it in nude. Yeah, well, I love that for you. Thank you. I love how she's like, this is the sass on my nipples, my UTI.

Yeah. I PMSed so bad on like the day, two days before my period. And it was a weird PMS where like, I had no one I was mad at, no one I knew of who was mad at me, nothing that was stressing me out, but the PMS is stronger than all those factors. But you were in rage.

I was in rage, and I was sitting there, and I knew that I was losing my mind. And I was anxious about nothing. And it was so frustrating, because you feel crazy. I was just sitting there, you just feel like, you wanna punch something, but you have no valid reason. Every day there's something that goes wrong, so normally I can put it into that,

but I really had a very low drama day. So I was just sitting there fighting my own battles. No, honestly, for the past three months, I've used the phrase, can I just have a day? I've texted so many of my girlfriends, they'll send me something like, did you see this? Did you see that? I'm like, can I just have a day? Like, I've texted so many of my girlfriends. They'll like send me something like, did you see this? Did you see that? I'm like, can I just have it?

Day where someone's not saying me the fuck off. Just eight hours, not even a full day. Yeah. Just a work day. Just a work day. Just a nine to five work day. So, yeah, I was PMSing really bad. Got my period. Everyone's okay now. Wagovie, Wagovie, ask for it by name. Wagovie, Wagovie, that's all I will say. There's things about Wagovie that I wanna talk to.

Don't ask me, go ask your doctor. Wagovie, Wagovie, it's all I will say. Wagovie, Wagovie, bap, bap bap bap bap bang bang. Ask your doctor about what Gobi today. Visit the website, we're Gobi. Like if we're on fire, we cannot deal with that stuff. Got your venture fund, but you're still an active Olympian. How do you manage? When it's down to retire, that's when you rest.

On Dragon's Den, anyone who have the guts to set up a company, that's an entrepreneur. Season five starts now. Download to listen to Canadian Leaders with Courage. Subscribe on Apple, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. I do have one thing to bring to the forefront that I've been seeing on my TikTok. Please. I keep getting like all these TikToks of like Selena and Benny and like they've been doing like press and like whatever. I like their song Sunset Boulevard.

Yeah, and I like them. Have you seen his toenails? No, that hasn't come across my desk do us a favor type in Benny Blanco's toenails or Chris he's like can I have a day? They are Amazing Yes Amazing. The art? Are we talking about the art? Yes. This man, and I can't believe I'm even saying this because if someone said like,

oh, he paints his toenails, I'd be like, ick. No, there are literally works of art. Please Google the sushi one. Wait, like should be in the MoMA. No, like he literally. Wait, so if your boyfriends are doing this. Honey not mine. Honey not mine. That's not my brand. Oh honey not mine.

Well my thing is that takes forever. Yeah, but like what a quirky fun creative thing. He's very quirky. Like I like it for him, not my man. Can I say a hot take? Mm-hmm. Selena's been through a lot. Yeah.

And a lot of time when people have a traumatic like relationship in the public eye, the next relationship they decide to keep it private. And a lot of time when people have a traumatic relationship in the public eye, the next relationship, they decide to keep it private. Yes. They're not. No. Do you think that she's just like, this is my life,

I might as well monetize it? What a great deep question, Hannah. I'm gonna tell you what I really feel from the bottom of my soul. I think she feels so protected by him. Mm. That. She wants to show it off.

There's nothing that could, anyone on the outside world could say or do about their relationship that would throw them off. This is a perfect example, And people will always say like, Paige, you shouldn't say that. He should? Oh, wait. What?

I didn't say it yet. I didn't say it yet. Because I'm getting to it. Like, I'm always like, the guy should love the girl more. 100%. Like, full stop. I don't care what your reasoning is that it should be equal.

It shouldn't. This is a perfect example. He loves her so much more. You can just tell. And that's that it should be equal, it shouldn't. This is a perfect example. He loves her so much more, you can just tell. And that's how it should be. And that's why they're perfect. I also was gonna argue they're perfect. Chris, are you trying to show us more toes? I mean, is that not the craziest thing you've ever seen?

Yeah, I mean, he's a creative. Also, he shaved his toes for that one. I wonder if that was part of the aesthetic. Yeah, I love that. Okay, you can put it away, Chris, thank you. Chris is gonna show up. I love that I found out Benny Blanco's written every single song ever.

No, literally like ever. Ever, and I love hearing musicians talk about writing songs because they're like, yeah, I did like a one, two beat. And then I said, California girls. And then like the biggest hit ever. But he is so successful and hasn't been in the room with every famous artist so he can like handle her fame.

Sometimes I feel like maybe she would wanna protect who she's dating from all the shit that she gets. I mean, he's been called literally a sewer troll for the last two, or year, or whatever they've been dating. But I guess you're right, they're used to the public eye in a way. He has the zaniness where he could handle it. I just love a man who's self-aware enough to be like,

my job is to make her life easier. Yeah. Ugh. Yeah. The day I meet someone that's like, I just want to make your life easier. Yeah. I'm like, I'm nervous about it just because I'm

like protective of them. And I feel like they're giving too much. They've done a couple morning shows. They're going to be fine. Yeah. Justin and Haley, like it's still this thing where like everyone compares and all that stuff. So the more you give, the more people can have opinions.

I couldn't imagine that. I mean, dealing with it, they've been dealing, I've been literally dealing with a breakup for like three months and I wanna shoot myself in the eye. No, I know. They've been dealing with this for almost 10 years. Their whole life. Like that, I would, I know. Have they been dealing with this for almost 10 years? Their whole life. Like that I would, right, I could never.

And Benny is friends with Justin. Like they've written songs together. Yeah. Because famous people, it's like a little high school. Yeah. They all like date and fuck each other. But I love it. I love it.

I love it. I would argue if you're inspired by Selena and Benny's relationship, how do I say this in a nice way? Don't settle for the ugly guy that likes you a lot because he's not Benny Blanco. He's not as rich or successful or nice. And when you settle for an ugly guy, he's actually the one that's gonna break your heart. Rip out your heartstrings more than anyone because you were like, I was doing a make-a-wish. You liked me first. I felt safe.

And then they get confident for a second cause a cute girl liked them. And then they will ruin you more than like any hot dude you've ever dated. If I had to rank all my boyfriends in my head, my two ugliest ruined my life. Every, it's always a guy named like Matt. A guy named Matt, who you were like,

I pulled you out of like, out of obscurity. Literally, literally. Literally. So I'm just saying, don't like go full out. But let me tell you something else. The good looking ones also, fuck yeah. True. You know?

I think the key is to find a good looking guy. Nope, there's no key. Nope, no key. Nope, no key. I truly think key is to find a good looking guy. Nope, there's no key. Nope, no key. Nope, no key. I truly think it is, he has to be a little bit more obsessed with you than you are with him. But not too much more than it gets restraining order-y.

Yeah, then it gets ick. But like, he has to think about you more than you think about him. I always say that he has to, he has to know first. Yeah, 100%. I don't mean he has to choose you, I just mean he he has to know first. I don't mean he has to choose you. I just mean he has to fucking know first. And you can't have to convince him at all.

If you're trying to convince him, because I would argue that no one changes. Nobody changes. Wow, we're just saying generic statements now. Do you want to know something? My grandma, rest in peace. Oh my God, rest in peace. My grandma gave me two pieces of advice

and I remember them to this day. The first one, she said, if you're dating someone new, Paige, you have to experience all four seasons with them because people are different at different times of the year. And two, people don't change. And I feel like I get pushback on that statement so much

where it's like, I feel like bridesmaids where it's like, well, they grow, they don't change. And I feel like I get pushback on that statement so much where it's like, I feel like bridesmaids where it's like, well, they grow. They don't. People don't change. They can give you like a representative for a certain amount of time. And I've met some amazing representatives. My biggest advice with dating,

cause now I'm remembering what I used to be when dating is I would like see a guy I wanted, and then I would just take in all the information of what he wanted, and respond the way I thought he wanted to respond. And men are kind of simple, and the next thing you know, I would be a representative. And then you look in the mirror,

and you're like, who the fuck is this? And even though he likes you, you don't like who you've become. And you're like, wait, I got what I wanted and I miss who I was. So that was like how I dated. I feel like we dated very differently, but had like the same problem.

You even saying like you saw a guy you wanted and you would go after them. I had a therapist tell me one time, of all the dating stories you tell me, never once have you picked the guy. You keep letting them pick you and you don't like them. Why do you let them pick you? I love when I see a girl meet a really good looking guy

and be like, I talked to him and we just didn't hit off. Because when I was younger, I was like, no, he's good looking. Obviously, I want to be with him. I was very, I really was shallow with men. Not my outfits, not myself, but with men. You loved having like a good looking man who people thought was cool.

Loved it. Like, oh, that's Hannah's boyfriend. Like a handbag. Yeah. And cause I thought it was- See, I loved a pet project. No. See, I thought it was like feminists.

I felt like a ugly man. I liked finding them real traumatized and being like, let me help you. And then I'd be like, and this is why your mom doesn't love you. I had something crazy happen to me this week. Tell. There's a tennis player named Kim Keisters,

who's one of the greatest tennis players of all time, won multiple Grand Slams. happened to me this week. Tell them. There's a tennis player named Kim Kleisters. Okay. Who's one of the greatest tennis players of all time, won multiple Grand Slams. She messaged me a while ago and was like, I loved your special. And I was like, Kim Kleisters, I love you. And I'm like, I'm so pleased. When you saw Coco Goff at Vanity Fair

and you literally lost your mind. And she was so nice. I lost my mind. She was so cool. Hi, Coco, love you. So Kim Kleister was like, oh my God, you play tennis? We should hit sometimes.

That's like, okay, let me try to think of your world. Give me an analogy. I'm gonna give you an analogy. That's like Victoria Beckham was like, hey, do you wanna get lunch? That's like Victoria Beckham being like, hey, I'm gonna go shopping, can you help me? And you didn't do anything to make her do that.

Like she literally was like, Hey Paige, I love your outfit. Can you come shopping with me? Oh my God. No, I would cry. So I'm sitting, I thought she was like being nice. Yeah. Didn't say anything.

Cause I'm not like that. Okay. I'm not good at talking to important people. If they want to talk to me, that's fine. But I'll get out of it pretty quick before I embarrass myself. So then like she commented on some, we were kind of commenting a little bit

and she kept being like, when do you want to hit? And I was like- I think she was following up with the plan. She was just like- She's following it in. Yes. So then the other week she was like, Hannah, are you in town?

And I was like, you know, actually I am. Like Giggity Squad tour is over, I'm in town. And she's like, do you wanna hit on Friday? And I was like, that would be the greatest thing that ever happened to me. So where'd you go? So we go to this place in like Hell's Kitchen. She came from New Jersey, which was like a while,

so I immediately felt pressure. I was like, she came all the way from New Jersey, I can't fuck this shit up. Mind you, my cardio's not great right now. I've been on planes, I'm trying to come up right now. I've been on planes. I'm trying to come up with excuses. Look, I'm not- Have I told you about my walking pad?

Oh. I've told everyone about my walking pad. The things you do instead of therapy. I'm obsessed with my walking pad. And if you think, have you been getting the TikToks of the girls with the splits machines? Splits machine, like you do a split? Yeah, it's like you put your legs,

it looks like stirrups, or it looks like the things like when you go to the gynecologist. Like you put your legs in them. Oh, and you push it together? And then you crank this thing. No, you crank this thing and it stretches your legs and you just like sit like that.

So girls are just gonna tear their groins. Well, my ordered one. Wait, I'm getting the ones where your body just shakes. Oh, you are. So you have an exorcism. My goal is I want to be able to do a split by July. Wait, I love that you brought that up because I've never come close to a split.

Me neither. And I think the universe did that to me because they knew if I could do a split. It's all you would do. It's all I would do and you'd get super annoying. You would hop down into a split anywhere we went. I'd be in a split right now. Also, I do have to say when I would sex back in my day,

I was like, split on the dick, rotate. Like I was false advertising that shit. I was like, leg behind my head, both legs behind my head. And then I show up at this place and I'm like, my stomach hurts. Have you ever actually tried to put your leg behind your head and it starts shaking and you're like, that's so embarrassing.

I've never even gotten to the shaking part. My leg's just like, no. But I think it's genetic that people can do splits. I think it's probably. Like, you know people come out of the womb and they're just like doing splits. Flexible, it's like how flexible their hips are. Wait, why am I jealous how flexible babies are?

They're so flexible. Do you ever see them just like, put their foot in their mouth? Yeah, what's the age that you like, you're starting to lose your flexibility and you don't even know it. What's the age where all your trauma starts to get stored in their mouth? Yeah, what's the age that you're starting to lose your flexibility and you don't even know it? What's the age where all your trauma starts to get stored in your hips?

Yeah. So anyway, I have all my trauma stored in my hips and my lower back, and I go up to meet Kim Kleister. When I tell you she's cool, she's from Belgium. Some guys there recognizes her speaking French to her. She's speaking French. She's awesome. We get on the court, and we start hitting,

and it's like incredible. Like I'm hitting with the woman I used to watch on TV, who's, and also it's like her art. Right. This is her. This is the story of, it was good to meet your hero. Yes. Yeah. But you're like, what's the point of this story? Can we wrap it up?

Can we wrap it up? Okay, a lot of side tangents. But long story short, 10 minutes in, I was like really excited. What'd you wear? I just wore a white polo and lululemon leggings and Cocoa Golf New Balance shoes. It wasn't a look, but it was like prime to perform.

Okay. So 10 minutes in. Some say if you look good, you play good, but. Nope. Not here. We don't say it here. Serena Williams did say that. So I don't know if you've ever been nervous plus hyped up.

Sure have. Yeah. Sure fucking have. You're already breathing heavy, plus she obviously doesn't miss. Right. 10 minutes in, I'm like, I'm gonna croak. Yeah.

I need an oxygen tank. So I start just bringing up conversation like, oh, quick question. Trying to like catch your own breath. I can't breathe. And it's also cause I haven't played and I went from like zero to a hundred. I keep pretending to tie my shoes.

Like I like took off my shoe at one point and re, I like took apart my shoe, re-put my shoe together. And then we sit down and she's asking me like nice questions and I'm trying to talk, but I'm literally so out of breath I can't speak. How long you play for? So we ended up talking a lot because I was like about to faint and we ended up probably total playing for like 25-30 minutes I felt bad but like you know she wasn't there to have like the hit of her life. Right. But I like I did well. Yeah. And I hadn't played in a couple of months.

Yeah. And I feel like newly inspired. And now you're friends. And I have new best friends. Wait. So that was the point of the story. You have a new friend and you wanted to run it by me and see how I felt about it.

Yes. And you tried to distract me with that you love tennis, she loves tennis, I don't really care about tennis. You even said we didn't even wear good outfits, I don't really care about tennis. You even said, we didn't even wear good outfits, you would have had a horrible time. I did, then afterwards, you know when you leave and then I was also PMSing, so I was like,

I don't know if she liked me, if she went all the way from New Jersey, she has a family, she left her family. She's like, that was a waste of my time. That wasn't worth it. Like I literally convinced myself that I wasted her time. And then the next day she texted me

and I'd been married for a while. Yeah. I felt like a- You forgot what it was. You know after a date when you're like 50, 50 and then he texts you and you go, yeah. Yeah, I mean I crushed. And you go from nothing to being like,

am I the greatest, whoever did it? Yeah. So, but now I don't know what to text her. What do you, what do I do? And you're always in this predicament. How are you always get in this? I think I'm shyer. Yeah.

With like, texts maybe? Yeah, you are. Then you are in person. It's cause I have a friend named Hailey, who I love, Hailey Nicola. She listens to every episode, not Hailey Biebs. And Hailey harasses me over texts. I know Haley's texting should be studied.

So I warn people, I say Haley is the greatest human on this planet. The greatest. You got to carve out at least 45 minutes if you're going to throw her a text. I go, do not judge her by her texting habits, because Haley likes to text continuously as the thoughts come to text. Continuously. As the thoughts come to her. And she's quick. God forbid she thinks before she texts.

She starts off with, hey, you're watching her come up with it as she texts you. And if you look at your phone, it looks like corn on the cob, just like, duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh duh. So, Hailey, I love you. So anyway, I'm working on a new friendship. I'll keep you guys posted. Ask me, go ask your doctor. Wigoby, Wigoby, it's all I will say.

Okay. It's literally keeps getting advertised to me on my Amazon Prime. It's like shows you would like, shows you would like, shows you would like. I'm like, I can't. How is it? So I have a lot of thoughts.

Okay. First off, I watched the Rust, which is a documentary about what happened. Okay, with the whole like Spanish accent thing? No, with the whole Alec Baldwin murdering. Oh. The whole shooting incident. Now I sound so insensitive. I'm like, they made a documentary about her fake accent.

The truth is the reality series is covering him going through the trials. And they acknowledge that she gets a lot of hate for her Spanish stuff. They don't ignore it at all. Wow. Because basically they're like, if you're gonna do it, you have to show us this stuff. Why are they doing this?

I think it's a money thing. I think they might be. I mean they got a fucking baseball team. I have to say the first episode, I was intrigued. Really? And it's because, first of all, you're watching an A-lister out Baldwin. He's going through the trauma of-

And I think she's gorgeous. She's gorgeous. Yeah. The trauma, you're watching the trauma of him. It's unfathomable how horrible what happened. And he's clearly in a really bad place. Like shock. And they're in a four or five bedroom apartment

in New York City with seven kids. And they go through and like describe each of the kids kind of like the seven dwarves. Like they're like, he's dopey, he's silly. This one's. No, seven kids is crazy. I'm obsessed. Like I loved watching like lives of the rich and famous

like the VH1. Oh my God. Do you remember that guy's voice? Yeah. Where it was like, Lives of the Rich and Famous, like the other VH1. Oh my God. Do you remember that guy's voice? Yeah. Where it was like, it was like British, where it was like, Paris Hilton has 7,000 watchable shells. Like something, and you're just like, oh my God. She had 40 billion crystals on her toilet.

And if you think that was crazy, wait till her 21st birthday. Like that was his voice and I love that fucking guy. Bring that show back. Bring that show back. Where is that show? They're like, his estate on the mountain. No one's allowed to go unless what?

I love seeing like people's rich, crazy lives, but like this is insane. But you do see like their relationship is different than you think. It's actually so funny you say that. Like obviously the internet is built and like influencers is built on like relatability in some capacity. Like I love seeing a bitch that I relate to.

But the second best thing is someone I don't relate to at all. Like I'm like that's intrigue. A woman with seven kids, I can't relate. I understand why this was like greenlit because there's so much crazy stuff. I don't love that the kids are on TV, especially like the oldest one who's amazing

and so funny and so cute, but like they don't just have seven kids. They have four cats and four dogs. No. So like there's mental illness happening. So I'm intrigued. I'm like, I need to understand what's going on. I'm dialed in.

I'm locked into this. And she, you know, she has a sense of humor. She has a charisma. She has a charisma. So she was a yoga teacher, which you know yoga teachers are fucking bonkers. Crazy. But yoga teachers are like,

if I'm gonna talk to someone in the room, I wanna talk to the yoga teacher because she's gonna be inspiring. She's loony, manifesting shit. So she handles him because he's, also he's hilarious. Like he randomly would just be doing funny voices. The daughter was like, 50% of the time, my dad's really funny.

And then 50% of the time he's like, in the 80s, this is what it was like. I'm like, that's literally how I talk about Des. Yeah. You're like, that's so funny. That's how my husband is. But like, he's a A-list actor. So everyone then he's doing like funny voices.

And you realize like, he's just kind of this creative guy. His dad wanted him to get into like a real job and he wanted to be an actor. And he's just a creative actor. She looks at him and says all these like, inspirational things while he's like, clearly like and he's just a creative actor. She looks at him and says all these like inspirational things while he's like clearly like he's. Are they in love? I think they're functioning.

Who loves the other one more? I feel like he's broken. Okay, perfect. He's broken and she, he basically was like. And she's uplifting. He literally said I had the worst home life and horrible family life. And all I wanted was to come home to a home full of children

and a wife that holds me down. And he's like, she keeps my life together and she is the like, the uplifting positive voice that I need. And she's, he can be like grumpy and stuff. And she always is positive. By the way, nothing happens in the show. The first episode is like, you get the point?

Yeah. Because the first episode is them in the city being like, okay, we're gonna go out to the Hamptons. Not that easy when you have seven kids and seven animals. I mean, you don't even fit in one car. And they have two nannies. So they have three cars, and they have a whole chart system,

and the kids are biting each other and crying, and they can't find a cat. I actually can't wait to make a whole chart system and the kids are biting each other and crying and they can't find a cat. I actually can't wait to make my first chart system as well. No, so she's like, and Alec Baldwin goes, whatever you do, I don't want the cats in the car. I love them, but I'm allergic and to be in the car I can't do. Of course she puts all the cats in his car.

I don't know, probably producers weren't on that. But like, it's a fascinating look into these people's lives. But they talk about how, yeah, they kind of have to hide a lot. They just like hide together and they have each other. But what happened on that set with Helena, the director, is so devastating because basically they didn't, long story short, they didn't have a lot of funding.

They ended up hiring a girl who like wasn't really qualified and her job was to manage the guns. And what happened is there's not supposed to be any real rounds on set. Like at all. At all. And it was randomly in a bunch of guns, real bullets. No, that's so terrifying.

So like the fact that it didn't happen before he did it is like a miracle. And the day, this is really upsetting, but the day that it happened, the day before a bunch of people had quit because they felt like it wasn't safe because there'd been like some mistakes and they were like, we can't be on this set anymore.

We don't feel like it's safe. Oh my God. And some cameramen quit. And that's why the director was standing up by the camera, because normally she would be away. In the back. And that's why when he, so, oh my God, I'm like shaking.

So it's fucking insane. And he's lived a long life, and he's like, this is nothing like I've ever been able to deal with before. Yeah, like by far the craziest thing that's ever happened to me. Fast forward, everyone's talking about, speaking of Hollywood, the studio. Seth Rogen, have you watched?

I have watched. Thoughts? People are loving it. What are they loving? I don't need to be stressed out when I'm watching TV. And they're calling it cringe comedy. It's not cringe, it's I'm stressed out comedy. Like, you know when it's like, I tripped, then I broke my leg,

then someone needs my leg, then I lose money, and I don't have any money, and then I'm lying in the street. I'm like, I'm stressed. It's not my type. It's not my type of humor. Wait, so you agree with me? I agree with you.

Okay, I thought I was crazy because people were like, this is the greatest I've ever seen. Do I think the cinematography is fantastic? Do I love every actor in it? Was Martin Scorsese incredible? Is Seth Rogen a genius? Yeah, a master of his time.

Yes. Not my sense of humor. Not my sense of humor. I do like that it feels like they really did take from their lives. These are real scenarios. Look, am I gonna be watching every episode? Yes.

Well, there's nothing else on TV. There's nothing else on TV anymore. And when Apple comes out with something, I watch it. They don't fuck around. Yeah, they're quality over quantity. Have you heard about the pit? I watch it. Is it about a hospital?

You would hate it. This is the thing everyone's saying it's good, but I get- You would dislike it. If I see blood. It's really good because it's one, the season is one day. It's one day broken up into like the hours of the day as each of the episodes.

Did you ever watch 24? I heard of it. Okay, so it's like that where it's like one day in the hospital. And it's really good because there is a really like realistic factor in it. Not that I've ever worked in a hospital or like, no. You're like, but I watch Grey's Anatomy. This is actually, that's a real term they use.

Compared to Grey's Anatomy, is it accurate? I think it's accurate. It's similar to Grey's Anatomy, but it's not as like romantic as like Grey's. And like Grey's Anatomy was a fucking sex show. Like that was like- Would you hook up with McDreamy? Hell yeah, what? Have you ever watched Scandal?

Yeah. Would you rather hook up with McDreamy or the president? Or the president? McDreamy, McDreamy, McSteamy actually. I was more of a Mcsteamy gal. Okay, I have to look at them all up. But like, obviously if they're over 40, I'm in. But the main doctor in the pit is so hot.

Like, that's who you're, like I'm watching for him. And there's something about like a man in charge who like keeps his cool. It's just so fucking hot. Hot take. I think there's more male doctors because they don't have empathy. Wow, what an interesting take.

Like women are- They're more nurturing, so like they'd have more, like it would be too tough. I don't know, I do know that the nurses that are primarily women, it's just weird the nurses are primarily women. And let's be honest, the nurses are doing everything. The doctor comes in and it's like.

The show actually kind of like, there's one head nurse and it's like. She's running shit. Yeah, and then the doctor comes in and goes, you're welcome, walks out. But there is a sense of like, being a doctor is about like every day, you can see the most,

depends what kind of doctor you are obviously. Sometimes you're just like, it's so great. This show is a trauma. They're a trauma center. You have to go home after that and like. I don't know how they do that. And like talk to your wife.

I don't know how anyone in the medical field legitimately did COVID. Though, like I. Shout out to all of them for. I'd love to know how many people after COVID in the medical field quit. Well, cause it was irrational and insane and they went above and beyond to help the world. But I also, maybe it's kind of like me

with watching murder documentaries where maybe some of these people are like, whatever happens during the day, it reminds myself my day could have been worse. Maybe they're like, I can handle all this because then I'll be grateful that I'm alive. That's how people feel watching reality TV. Exactly. They're like, well, I don't got those kind of problems.

Oh, one more thing I was watching, Con Mom. I think I saw an advertisement. It's on Netflix. Oh my gosh. It's documentary style. You guys love I Know a Con. It's like a girl or a woman that pretends to be someone's mom. So I'm not, I don't want to give away who she is, but basically this like adorable pastry chef

meets a woman who's also adorable. They fall in love. They get pregnant. She realizes he has some demons that he hasn't worked out. If I had a nickel. Perfect type. Yep. She's like, I will fix you. they get pregnant, she realizes he has some demons that he hasn't worked out. So- If I had a nickel. Perfect type.

She's like, I will fix you. And he's like, I don't talk to my dad anymore. He was like, not cool. And I don't know who my mom is. And out of nowhere, he gets an email from someone being like, hey, I'm your mom. And he asks her like a bunch of questions and she knows the answers to all of them about his life.

And she's like changed her name a couple of times. Wait, spoiler alert. Just waiting for people to click off. Is it the wife? No. Okay. But I love your thinking, you sick buck. Yeah, okay, keep going.

So then he meets her and she destroys their lives. Is she- Spoiler alert. Wait, spoiler alert. Is she his ring? Is she? Spoiler alert. I said that the whole time.

Wait, why don't people use the phrase spoiler alert in more like everyday jargon when you're not gonna spoil anything, but like anytime I'm gonna say T now and I'd be like, spoiler alert, she's everyday jargon when it has not you're not gonna spoil anything but like anytime I'm gonna say Tina I'm gonna be like spoiler alert she's a fucking cunt you go how's your day spoiler not good wait why do I want to call my next special spoiler alert wait I kind of love it I know okay but true I have a question. So spoiler alert, is she his real mom? Spoiler alert. No way!

But that's like a real spoiler. Wait, that's really big spoiler. Okay, the other spoiler alerts are like, we are like. Those were fake, that was real. Wait, that's great. Okay, I'm gonna watch that tonight then, cause I clicked it and I was like, I don't know. Grace, can you bleep out my answer?

Cause I don't, I feel like I'll ruin it for people. Okay. Oh my God. Spoiler alert. Spoiler alert. But like conning and lying. It is crazy how you watch people who are very intelligent, very smart for whatever reason get literally groomed.

Final thought, it's about to be fucking April. Time flies when you're having fun. We're about to go on a book press run. Yeah, we are. And we're so excited. We have to get a lot of outfits. No. How are you doing?

I'm not doing good. What's the set up? I'm not doing good. Okay. I'm not doing good. Spoiler alert. Spoiler alert. Not doing good.

Not great over here. I have like one outfit. We're doing Drew Barrymore tomorrow, which I'm very excited for. And we're sitting on the couch of Fallon. Yeah, we're gonna pop over to Jimmy Fallon quick. We're gonna say hi to Jim's St. Rose alumni. Here's the thing with Jimmy Fallon.

I just love it so much. There's something about late night talk shows that are like very exciting to me. And what I'm most nervous about is anyone, like a celebrity that I love, like if they're on Jimmy Fallon, I will watch their interview on Jimmy Fallon. He's my favorite of all the late night hosts.

What's significant about this is like, this is Hollywood shit. Like this is a late night sitting down. And it's important because back then, there were so many like gatekeepers that would prevent two girls who are funny from making it to the couch at Jimmy Fallon. And it's cause of you guys and because of TikTok

and because of podcasting that we're able to like do this thing. Haters will say it's Photoshopped, but it's not. Wait, remember when people used to say that all the time? The thing that scares me though. Also there might be some Photoshop. No, I'm definitely gonna like Photoshop my face. The thing that scares me though is like there might be some Photoshop. No, I'm definitely gonna like Photoshop my face. The thing that scares me though is like

when you go on Jimmy found you have to have a story. We can't focus on one story. Literally two seconds in and I'll be like. What is our story? I'm gonna start a side track. You're gonna be like Hannah, I'm gonna say spoiler alert. There's a pre-interview they call you and they like vet your stories

and tell you which one they think is gonna be best. But like we have to think of a story. We have to make up a story. Every once in a while, someone will comment something mean on my Instagram and they'll absolutely eat. But I'll be like, fuck. Or every now and then you're like, that's not funny.

I'll screenshot it and send it to my brother. They nailed me with that one. But someone wrote something mean on my Instagram and they're like, I forget how this girl even started it. She was something like, she went to an obscure college. She went to an obscure college and it closed. So she's an idiot or something like that. Where's the lie?

Where's the lie? But also I feel like if we need a fallback, me and Jimmy Fallon went to the same college. So it's like, we'll use, that's our anchor. That got canceled. Right, and like that's funny, inherently. That's hilarious. No, it's gonna be great.

We're gonna be fine. I'm definitely gonna take a beta blocker. And you don't know what you're gonna wear yet? Are you kind of? No, I don't. Because that's the one where you need to have like a look. I need to have a look. Like, L-E-W-K.

The only thing I know for my look for Jimmy Fallon, and I don't know why, but it's just like something I'm feeling. I want my decolletage out. I think I might want to do something like cold shoulder, off the shoulder, something with like maybe like something. It's very like cocktail evening. Yes.

I want to go like 2016 vibes. I'm always trying to go back to 2016. Yeah, you are. I feel like. You go, is it 2016 right now? No, like the fall of 2015. Was that when you first graduated college and you were like going out in New York City

for the first time? Yeah. Yeah. That's when you were like, the world is my oyster. I was like, a husband, I'll find one in two seconds. Spoiler alert, I didn't. Spoiler alert. We love to end the show with a callback.

And that's called a bookend. We love you guys so much. Thank you for giggling. And if you haven't pre-ordered a book, do it because it's gonna arrive in two weeks. It's happening. It's happening, it's happening, spoiler alert. Bye. Bye.
