A
Okay, Gigglers. I have to tell you about a snack I've been loving because my schedule lately has been absolute chaos. Between recording, meetings, travel, and generally running around, I always need something easy to throw in my bag. The problem is most protein bars are either healthy and taste like chalk or they taste amazing and the ingredients are questionable. Why has that been the trade off? That's why I was excited to find Stars and Honey. They make protein bars with corn quality ingredients that actually taste good. No chalky aftertaste, no sugar, alcohols, no gluten, no seed oils. It's basically proof that you don't have to choose between nutrition and flavor. I love having something on hand that fits into my routine and still feels like a treat. Stars and Honey protein bars are available at Target stores nationwide. So next time you're at target buying the one thing you came for and 12 things you didn't, grab a box and try them for yourself. Okay. You guys know I live for just doing the thing, not overthinking it. Like, why do we need to spend so much time playing it safe and staying inside our comfortable little bubbles? Honestly, the absolute best parts of life happen when you just follow your heart and take a little risk. Like imagine going to Europe, getting a little lost down some gorgeous cobblestone alley and trying to order an espresso in a language you don't even know. It's fine. That kind of vulnerability is literally how you grow and actually figure out who you are and.

B
And that's what you're doing right now.

A
Flew Delta Airlines all the way to Capri.
- [01:26]
B
The vibe on the Delta flights to go to Europe are so chic, elevated. It just makes you feel like a little princess. And I got my Delta headphones and I'm watching my movies. I also think it's so important to travel and Delta takes care of you during the travel so that you can grow and learn about new cultures and just experience new things. We can't just stay in our bedroom all the time, even though it's comfortable. And when I travel, I just learned that the world that no one cares and like the worlds are just so much bigger than you. And that's comforting.
- [02:00]
A
It gives you perspective.
- [02:02]
B
Yes. So traveling is the ultimate way to experience some major personal growth and just see what happens. Step outside your comfort zone this summer and fly with Delta Air Lines. Honestly, they completely change the game for European travel and make the whole journey feel so elevated and special. From the second you board. Go book your next great chapter right now@delta.com sup gigglers.
- [02:26]
A
Gary, fix your Wi Fi.
- [02:27]
B
Manifest that shit. We can't be managed.
- [02:34]
A
I mean, the day just got away from me.
- [02:37]
B
We're back, baby. Hello, my gonzola. Gigglers.
- [02:43]
A
When's the last time I saw you in person? Like, when's the last time I touched your skin?
- [02:49]
B
Well, you never really touched me.
- [02:50]
A
When we're together, next time we're gonna hug.
- [02:53]
B
No, I remember the last time. I don't remember when it was, but I remember being like, I'm not gonna see you for a long time.
- [02:59]
A
Oh, yeah.
- [03:00]
B
And you were like, I cannot wait to show you my outfits in Italy.
- [03:05]
A
I'm so happy to be back, though. Like, it was such a good trip, but I'm so, so happy to be home.
- [03:13]
B
Well, I was fielding your request. People are like, where's Paige? Where's Paige? Where's Paige? And then they were like, she's been gone for two months. And I'm like, no, I know it's too long, but. No, no, I don't think it was too long.
- [03:24]
A
It was a transformational trip, really.
- [03:27]
B
Innards and outards.
- [03:31]
A
I had so much fun, but also, I was, like, ready to get home to, like, the comforts of my own bathroom.
- [03:39]
B
Do you feel like you need a vacation from your vacation?
- [03:41]
A
Well, that's what, like, the second part of the trip kind of is.
- [03:44]
B
Oh, yeah. Yeah. You're like, I factored that in. Don't worry.
- [03:47]
A
I factored that in, because my cortisol levels just, like, go way down. And my brother got engaged, which also, I like. By the time I saw the rumors that I got engaged, it was, like, past the time, but I could say something on Instagram. So I was like, I'll get it on my forum.
- [04:05]
B
I have to formally apologize because I actually was. I always end up part of the drama. And I don't even mean, I swear. Like, you know me. Like, I'm. My name always gets thrown around.
- [04:16]
A
I don't do anything. I don't say anything.
- [04:18]
B
I don't say anything. And we were FaceTiming, as we do, and I smiled, and Paige was, like, dying, laughing. And, like, it brings me joy to see you laughing so hard at my ugly face. So I screenshotted it, and I posted it so innocently.
- [04:37]
A
Wait, I feel like I didn't even
- [04:39]
B
see that I posted. Basically, it's me like this, and you're like this, like, laughing. Cute.
- [04:46]
A
And it looks like I got engaged.
- [04:47]
B
Well, then I put my phone down, go about my day, the comments.
- [04:54]
A
So you started a rumor about me while I Was like, literally having IBS symptoms. Did I do something?
- [05:01]
B
You had E. Coli, babe. Like, way worse. I have IBS symptoms.
- [05:05]
A
No.
- [05:06]
B
So everyone in the comments is like, oh, my God, Paige FaceTimed you to show you the ring, and you guys are, like, freaking out. And I'm like, I wouldn't ruin her engagement by being like this. Could you imagine making it about my smile? Be like, I don't page, but look at my smile. When she got engaged, even anytime I
- [05:23]
A
posted a picture smiling, the gigglers were like, honestly, it's. This is like, the meanest thing ever.
- [05:29]
B
Well, yeah. Well, that's bullying.
- [05:31]
A
So you started a rumor about me.
- [05:33]
B
One of my friends text me. It was like, did Paige get engaged?
- [05:36]
A
No. My mom was getting text messages. She was like. She was like, wait, what? And she was like, no, Gary. And then my mom was like, did I tell. Like, she was like, I think I told them that it was Gary.
- [05:48]
B
Poor Gary. Everyone goes, it was Gary. And everyone goes, oh, well, the best
- [05:53]
A
thing about it is, like, Gary and his now fiance, who is, like, a gem of this earth. I literally am so excited for them. She doesn't have Instagram either, so, like, they don't give a shit at all. Like, they didn't know. They were like, what? Like, they are, like, real people living in the real world.
- [06:11]
B
I'll post in the newsletter because if you were just going like this, like. Like, it looked like you were, like, excited and happy you left. Can a girl giggle?
- [06:21]
A
Can I wear a white dress and have a laugh?
- [06:24]
B
Sorry. You have a tan, and white is the best to go with it. Also, my thing is, like, for a second, was I like, did she get engaged? I feel like you wouldn't get engaged at the end of your trip.
- [06:36]
A
Also, I feel like you'll know.
- [06:39]
B
No.
- [06:40]
A
Fully no. You want to know one thing that was, like, kind of. I did see a couple comments, and they were like, have you seen her nails? She would never get engaged like that. And I was like, just because my nails grow. I got them done the day before I left. My nails and hair grow at a rapid rate.
- [06:59]
B
You were there for three years.
- [07:00]
A
And I looked down.
- [07:01]
B
I was like, they don't let you get away with anything.
- [07:05]
A
No, I don't. Can't get away with. Literally, did I ever die?
- [07:09]
B
Can I have a diet?
- [07:10]
A
Also, I guess I didn't really think much of it because, like. Which seems weird because you would think it would be more when you're on reality tv, but whatever. Anything I've seen seen about myself post reality tv. I'm like, that. Where the heck did they get that? So, like, I haven't seen one rumor in the past, like, two years that's even been close to being true. So when I saw the. I was getting engaged, it was like the middle of the night, and I was like, what am I gonna do with this? So I just went about my life.
- [07:39]
B
Well, this is the problem with rumors, especially, like, Dumois. People love to be like, dumas. Always wrong. That's the problem is that it's not. Occasionally it is. Like, for example, Jack Antonoff and Margaret Qualley. There were rumors, and everyone's like, shut up, Dumas. And then it's real. But then someone like, like us, we. I get off summer house. I don't post my. My husband for a couple months because this poor man needs to recover.
- [08:09]
A
Yeah. He's traumatized.
- [08:10]
B
He's in witness protection, and everyone is submitting saying, we're divorced because I'm not posting him right. So, like, they're just pulling from what they can online because they. Because you're not. They're not getting what they used to, you know?
- [08:23]
A
Also, I've, like, I don't have a single man that's ever gotten away, so like, period. Period. And so I'm like, I'm fine.
- [08:32]
B
It's so true. But also, the gigglers know more about stuff than, like, the generic articles, so it's so funny. They're like, first of all, she had diarrhea from day seven today, 18. But, like, I feel like people could see you getting engaged in Italy.
- [08:51]
A
Totally plausible. I feel like I got those rumors, though, like, the year before and the year before that and the year before that. So, like, I don't. I, like, didn't really care. I will say, my favorite thing about coming home from vacation is the very first day. Hannah, you would hate this day because I'm doing a full factory reset.
- [09:13]
B
Oh. It stresses me out. You know, this stuff stresses me out.
- [09:16]
A
I'm getting my nails done. I'm getting my toes done. I'm getting a massage because my. My neck is just like a box.
- [09:22]
B
Yeah. From tanning.
- [09:23]
A
I have to. I'm going to do my laser. I have. I have to do a hair mask. I did a face mask last night. I have to do my red light. I. I literally can't wait to get off the phone.
- [09:34]
B
Is this the meeting you have?
- [09:36]
A
No, I do have a call at 10. I do have a call at 10. Am I. Anyway, I do have a couple housekeeping things that I brought away with me, that changed the course of my trip. One. This one's for you. If you don't have one. Hannah, it's gonna change your life. You need it. The shark handheld fan. The mini fan.
- [09:56]
B
Oh, the cold one. I actually. I got it. I didn't know how to use it. I got scared.
- [10:02]
A
It changed my whole life. First of all, the battery lasts pretty long. I didn't charge it one time on the trip. Literally right on the last day, I went to use it, and it was dead. And. And so that lasted pretty long.
- [10:14]
B
Lasted three years.
- [10:15]
A
It lasted four years. It worked so well. It saved me in a lot of situations where I was like, I'm going to pass away. I'm going to die. And then next. I don't do any skincare on the plane, but Medicube has this, like, I'll put it in the newsletter. I don't know what the first word is. Chloraseptic. Now, does that. I feel like that's for your throat.
- [10:38]
B
That sounds like. When you get surgery, they put it
- [10:41]
A
on so you don't get something acid, like spray. If you spray that, like, before you get on the plane, I feel like it helps you from breaking out. I always break out after a long flight.
- [10:50]
B
Wait, why do you put your foot down and not do skincare on the plane?
- [10:54]
A
I feel like my skin is so sensitive. And when you're doing skincare on the plane, I feel like it's. Your pores are open, and the air on a plane is like, you don't want. You don't want your pores, other people's farts sucking in that, like, bacteria. And then, like, you put a face mask on, then you trap it in there. I just like. And I always break out regardless after a plane, so I like that. There was one other thing. Now I can't think of it.
- [11:23]
B
That was really good, though. Like, two out of three. That was huge for you. I'm so stressed about your day today because, as you guys know, well, I'm going through the Masseter massacre, and I decided I want to book an acupuncture appointment because I did it once before, and I think it kind of helped.
- [11:48]
A
Yeah.
- [11:49]
B
And part of me, by the way, Grace is our CEO. Like, she doesn't do personal stuff for us ever. But I was. Occasionally, I'll be like, grace, can you, like, call the hotel and tell them something? Like, because I'm scared. So I was like, grace, every millennial
- [12:06]
A
needs a Gen Z friend who's not afraid to call.
- [12:10]
B
Like, yeah. And also, for Some reason on calls, like, if there's going to be a miscommunication, it's going to happen. Like, that's just how I interact with people. And I don't know what it is. I really try my best. It always happened. So I was, like, gonna tell Grace to try to call for an acupuncture appointment for me. And then I was like, I feel like that's, like, too much. I'm gonna do it myself.
- [12:31]
A
Hi.
- [12:32]
B
Cause I don't know, it's like. It's like health care. Like, who knows?
- [12:35]
A
It's not really healthcare.
- [12:36]
B
I literally sit there and I, like, have to, like, pump myself up. I'm like, you fucking do it. You fucking do it. You do it.
- [12:44]
A
Why you couldn't go online?
- [12:46]
B
No, it's one of these, like, mom, pop. Acupuncture. Like, I'm not. I'm going to get an STD from it for sure.
- [12:53]
A
I was just going to say a mom and pop acupuncture, please. I've never.
- [12:58]
B
We've learned nothing. It's just a heroin addict that's like, do you want me to stab you with a couple needles? It's just a subway car. Just a guy in a subway car.
- [13:09]
A
So, anyway, how you find this place? You just did a quick Google search.
- [13:12]
B
I know this is my problem. I love things that are close by. So I don't care how many Google reviews you have if you're close by. I'm going at a conveniency, and that's
- [13:24]
A
how I am when it comes to people coming to my home.
- [13:27]
B
Oh,
- [13:31]
A
no. Like, if I can get the service in house.
- [13:34]
B
Come on, over a hundred percent. So I make the call, and a nice lady is like, hello. And I like, immediately my adrenaline's up. Like, I feel like I'm in a speedway chase. And I'm like, I would like to book an appointment. See if I would. I would like to see if I could book an appointment. You know, you, like. You forget how words work. You're like, appointment, book. I would like one tomorrow. And she was like, we have no availability tomorrow. And I was like, what about Friday? And she's like, no availability on Friday. And I'm like, okay, I feel like we don't have to play this game anymore. Like, you tell me what. You tell me. Like, so I'm already like, okay. And then she's like, okay, we have, like, next Tuesday available. And she's like, what's your name? And I'm like, hannah. And she's like, anna. And I'm Like Hannah. And she's like, anna. And I'm like, hannah. And we go back and then she's like, can you spell it? I'm like, B E R N E, R. And she's like, what? And I'm like, B, E, R. Also pretty.
- [14:34]
A
Yeah, pretty easy last name.
- [14:36]
B
So that's like. It's already. I'm already like. I'm like about to hang up. Like, I'm like, I don't need this.
- [14:40]
A
And like, you can't talk?
- [14:41]
B
Well, no, I'm fighting for my. So she's like, can't get my name. And then she's like, when's your birthday? We go back for it. She can't understand that. And then she's. She's like, what's your insurance? And I'm. And I tell her the insurance. And she's like, I've never heard of that insurance. And I'm like, I'm. I swear I'm not trying to like scam you, just my insurance. And she goes, I've never heard of this insurance. She's like, let me google it.
- [15:08]
A
There's nothing worse than being on a customer service call. And they say, I have no idea what you're talking about. Like, there, you've really stumped gas like me.
- [15:17]
B
Like I'm the crazy one. I'm like, you asked me for something. I told you. And now you're like, are you sure about that? About that? So then she's like getting into like, well, we don't have this insurance. And she's giving this whole spiel about how they don't have this insurance. And I said, how much does it cost with no insurance? And she's like, $100. And I said, you know what? I'll pay that. And then she gets into this. Like, are you. Are you sure? Cuz then. And I'm like, finally I get off the call. Four years off my life from this call. She's calling me back. I said, oh hell no. She's. Now she's on to me. Like now I have a stalker. She's calling me back. Actually, at first I don't pick up cuz I don't recognize the number. Then she's like, hello, it's Marianne for whatever. So I finally pick up. I said, hi. And she's like, I need the chief. Cause of why you want to come to us. I said, the chief. Cause I'm like, you could just say why you're. Why you need to come, but it's okay.
- [16:19]
A
Okay. I've never heard that phrase Before I'm
- [16:22]
B
like, buckle the fuck up, Marianne. So, like, I don't know how to say it, but I'm like, it's clinical, so I should, like, tell them exactly what's going on, right? This is, like, it's not clinical as in it's my muscles. Like, I. Anyway, I just go. I. I knew this was gonna cause chaos, but I just say, I got dysport in my Masters, and already Marianne's gone. Are you talking? She goes, dot dis. What's a dysport? And I said, I can't get into this right now, Marianne. She's like, can you spell it? And I'm like, we're not doing the spelling thing again. This is gonna take forever. And she goes, what's the next thing? I said, master. She goes, what's the best. I said, marianne, it's this. We've been on the phone for three hours. Like, how close is this place?
- [17:09]
A
Because unless it's literally next door, I think you can drive a little bit.
- [17:14]
B
So then I'm like, look, I got too much Botox in one of my muscles. And she's like, it's great. I never heard of. I never heard of this mess. I've never heard of this before. I'm like, I'm not lying to you. Like, I swear by the end, I was like, I'll give you all my money. Don't call me back. And just get the appointments that are.
- [17:33]
A
Yeah, okay. So do you have the appointment?
- [17:36]
B
Yeah, I'm going on Tuesday.
- [17:37]
A
I can't wait to see if it works. I just feel like acupuncture is one of those things that, like, if you don't do it every twice a week, it's like.
- [17:47]
B
But that's the thing. I'm at the point where, like, I will commit to twice a week because,
- [17:50]
A
like, you'll try anything.
- [17:52]
B
Because now all the comments are like. So the bit is up. Like, is this her now? Like, the comments are just like, is this who she is now?
- [18:01]
A
Like, the jokes are. The jokes are subsiding, and it's like, okay, wait.
- [18:06]
B
Speaking of clinical, what a good segue.
- [18:10]
A
I'm in the ocean the other day, and, like, where our hotel was, like, you could, like, walk down into the ocean, and they had these, like, floating platforms that, like, kind of, like, swayed in the water. So, like, naturally, me and my brother's fiance are trying to push him off the platform, you know, like, and he's trying to, like, maintain balance. Well, I get hit so hard. Like, I get pushed so hard that I Smacked my. On the bot. Like on the bottom side. I don't even know how I did it. Smacked my. My cyst right out. Did it myself. Did it my. And I go so on brand for me, like, hold on, I'll just do it myself. I don't have time to waste. I'm not worrying about other people doing it. Did it myself. Doesn't hurt. Not at literally first time. I could put pressure on my left wrist in like two years. I feel like, wait, maybe even longer.
- [19:19]
B
I'm in shock. They do say the sea heals everything.
- [19:22]
A
Yeah. I mean, I don't. I think it was like a combination of me literally getting, like, traumatized and in the ocean, but it was perfect. I literally. Right when it happened too, I felt relief. I was like, wait, I think I just fixed my wrist.
- [19:37]
B
So for the gigglers with ganglion cysts, go to Capri or Capri. Go stay for two weeks, get E. Coli, then stay on the ocean for your cortisol levels to go down. Then wait for a rumor about you getting engaged, but it's actually your brother who got engaged. Then try to push him off a cliff and then you get pushed off and then you. That's how you get rid of your ganglion cyst. And it's medical.
- [20:03]
A
Yeah. So I was like, really proud of myself.
- [20:05]
B
Wait. I'm so proud of you taking care of.
- [20:08]
A
Because I had it on my to do list and I literally got back to my phone, deleted it right off.
- [20:13]
B
That must have felt nice.
- [20:16]
A
It felt so nice. No, not being. I didn't realize how much pressure I wasn't putting on my left wrist because I was in such pain until it, like, fully came back and I was like, oh, my God, I haven't. Sorry. I just saw a pair of slippers and I thought it was Kitty.
- [20:33]
B
Classic mix up. Classic mix up.
- [20:36]
A
Also, Kitty wouldn't speak to me for like six. Six hours when I got home. Yeah. And then finally she was like, if you want, you can pet me.
- [20:44]
B
Wait, did you kind of lowkey love that she has the self respect to be like, oh, you just want me to come running back to you?
- [20:50]
A
Yeah, I did. Because she wouldn't even make eye contact with me. And I was like, strong.
- [20:54]
B
She was texting her other friends. She was like, sorry, I have new people in my life.
- [20:59]
A
I was like, you take after your mother. So no eye contact.
- [21:03]
B
She goes, sorry, what's your name?
- [21:05]
A
She goes, sorry, I don't see you.
- [21:07]
B
She goes, is it Pam?
- [21:11]
A
Wait, I watched the Jennifer Garner show on Peacock five Star Weekend.
- [21:17]
B
Phenomenal shout out to Jen Garner, who is so good. One of the most famous gigglers, famously.
- [21:24]
A
No, she. She did an interview a couple weeks ago, and she said that she. The character that she relates to the most that she played was Jenna Rink. And I. It was just everything I needed to hear because in my head, that's what I think of her personality as.
- [21:40]
B
Do we have to try to get her on the pod?
- [21:42]
A
Yeah, we should. Like.
- [21:43]
B
But we get like, us. We have to do a sit down. We can't. Jennifer Garner can't do a zoom. I would never put her through that.
- [21:49]
A
I'm not sending Jennifer Garner a zoom link. No, I have respect.
- [21:54]
B
And then she gets on. I can't find my SD card. It'll be a whole.
- [21:57]
A
I'm not dealing with it.
- [21:58]
B
Embarrassing. She's so funny. Iconic. I love her so much. She's so funny. She's so nice. She's just everything. She's such a giggler to a tea.
- [22:07]
A
She really. Her, like, her aura and everything that she's in. And also this show was like the perfect amount of episodes. It was like such a. I watched it on the plane ride home and it just. I also love the actress. I can never say her last name. Chloe Sevign.
- [22:25]
B
Do you know, she's my fashion influence, really.
- [22:28]
A
I feel like I never see things that she wears. I feel like she's chill and low key. Like, doesn't go out much.
- [22:34]
B
She doesn't go out. But when she does, she's like New York City.
- [22:38]
A
Yes, I get. Yeah.
- [22:40]
B
And she'll wear like, you're loving to a T. Did I have. I said to a T like, eight times today? No, I need to, like, I need to learn how to speak. Like, I say one thing and I'll say it for, like, two weeks.
- [22:51]
A
You want to know what it is? It's because you're done working and you now are in your retirement community center and you're starting to adapt as his phrases. This is what happens when all you do is play tennis and golf all day. You start saying these phrases and I have to get my friend back.
- [23:10]
B
My mom. Like, I was this close to being invited to a mahjong tournament. Now, by the way, mahjong tournament. It's a whole thing. They do it, like, at the.
- [23:20]
A
Wait, do you know how to play?
- [23:21]
B
No. I had one lesson. That's why I said, mom, I'm not getting my ass beat and embarrassed. I just had an acupuncture fight with someone. I'm not going. I can't deal with this right now. But she. She's had a couple lessons. It's the cutest thing. She was like, everyone loved my outfit. I'm like, you got dressed up for the mahjong tournament. She was like, oh, it's an event and it's not for the men. She's like, it's all women, and you want to show up looking good. Like, out of respect for the other women. I was like, paige would love this. But also with mahjong, like, I would have showed up like a poker player. I would have had sunglasses.
- [23:57]
A
What? I mean, there's just so much to keep up with.
- [24:04]
B
No, but also, I literally have to do shout out to my mom. She's fucking insane. She's retired. She's doing Zumba, Knitting club, mahjong, Pilates, Historical society, Lions Club. Sorry, mom, for putting on blood.
- [24:19]
A
Is she trying to get into college?
- [24:20]
B
What the hell? Oh, my God. Also, my mom is such a high performing individual that every club she goes in. I think she's actually, like, about to be president of one of them.
- [24:32]
A
She goes in and she's like, I could rework.
- [24:34]
B
She also was doing the play. She's also singing jazz. She. She wrote everyone's part. She. She's one of those people who said the other people's lines when they were saying them.
- [24:43]
A
She's the writer, director, and star of the show.
- [24:47]
B
She has a world tour. She is doing jazz all around Long Island. So if you want to see my mom perform live, check out. I need to get her a website.
- [24:55]
A
And she fosters kittens on the side.
- [24:58]
B
I call her and she's like, hey, babe, I'm at Zumba. Hangs up.
- [25:02]
A
She's like, hey, look at the itinerary.
- [25:04]
B
Like, no time for me at all. But she gave me some really good advice. Because my mom, she's such a high performing individual. Some would call her a high value woman. That was Andrew Tate. She hates getting sick. Like, she'll do anything to not get sick because she has so many clubs to be at, right? And she doesn't want to get anyone sick. So she found something online about the Japanese.
- [25:28]
A
Okay?
- [25:28]
B
Now, one thing I trust is Japanese and cleansing. Clean, cleanliness.
- [25:34]
A
Don't get on that side of TikTok. It's a rabbit. You'll be up till 3am the cleaning contraption. If I. If I get on Japanese. Clean your floor, TikTok, it's over. I have to immediately get up and organize something. I'm like, I'm disgusting. I'm like, I think labels are Good. They have these individually. It's too much. Their organization is. It's insane.
- [25:59]
B
So apparently, they teach children at a young age because you know how kids like. Kids got you sick. Apparently, we think totally, fully putting a family on blast. But that family got you sick.
- [26:10]
A
I don't care.
- [26:10]
B
So she said they teach kids that when they get home. Do you know when you have a sore throat? Sometimes they'll tell you to put, like, sea salt in water and gargle it.
- [26:18]
A
Gargle.
- [26:19]
B
They teach the kids that Every time the kids come home from anything, they gargle in sea salt, and it, like, trains their body, and they, like, do that. So my mom has been gargling sea salt water when she comes back from all her clubs. And I was thinking, like, you should do that when you get off a plane. You should do it when you come back from a party. I. I just think it's innocent because, like, nothing bad can happen.
- [26:42]
A
Wait.
- [26:42]
B
I love that because it works, you know, it's definitely worked. And I think. I think the gigglers should start gargling.
- [26:49]
A
I don't know if this is FDA approved, but sometimes when I have a really bad sore throat, I just gargle straight up peroxide.
- [26:55]
B
Paige, no. Paige, do not. No, you guys. You guys, don't do that.
- [27:01]
A
Don't.
- [27:02]
B
Don't you dare do that.
- [27:03]
A
I'm like, what's gonna happen?
- [27:05]
B
A lot of things, Paige.
- [27:07]
A
I don't swallow it.
- [27:09]
B
Yeah, but
- [27:12]
A
why? People use it to whiten their teeth. So I was like, you could be
- [27:16]
B
a two for one.
- [27:17]
A
Yeah, I feel like this is fine.
- [27:20]
B
You're so wild. You're so naughty.
- [27:24]
A
Well, when it comes to my hobbies, I get crazy. Yeah.
- [27:27]
B
You want to push the limit? I know people use whiskey sometimes. Like, it's like. Like, if you have, like, a toothache, you put whiskey on it.
- [27:35]
A
I've never heard that.
- [27:36]
B
Well, my friend might just be an alcoholic. Wait, did I tell you Nana visited?
- [27:51]
A
No. What did she do?
- [27:53]
B
Nana and Papa came over. They brought chicken parmesan. I mean, eggplant parmesan. So fucking good. And she hadn't seen my smile. And she was just like, oh. Oh, Hannah.
- [28:06]
A
No. She was like, your face looks like it hurts.
- [28:10]
B
But then she started laughing, and I do.
- [28:13]
A
And I'm not just saying this to gas you up. From the minute you told me about it, it's definitely getting better. Yeah.
- [28:19]
B
It's just, like, so slow. But, yeah, my papa was so funny. He goes, who did this to you? He goes, where? And who did this to you? I Don't care if it's a man or a woman.
- [28:28]
A
My own fault.
- [28:30]
B
I really feel like the Masseter TMJ PR team is freaking the fuck out.
- [28:36]
A
Wow.
- [28:37]
B
Freaking out.
- [28:38]
A
As they should.
- [28:39]
B
As they should. Because I have all these messages of girls being like, I was at the dentist, or I was at my med spa or whatever, and they said, do you want to try Masseter? And every girl's like, oh, I forgot your dentist could do a dentist surgeon. And all the girls are like, I see what you're trying to do to me. Not today, Satan.
- [28:56]
A
I feel like I've never been offered by my dentist.
- [28:59]
B
They never offer it, but I think it's available because it's like a jaw related thing. But now all the nurses are like. I even have nurses messaging me being like, let me do it to you next time. I'm like, next time?
- [29:11]
A
Yeah. I was just gonna say, are you gonna ever get this again? No.
- [29:14]
B
Paige. This is the worst three months of my life. This is the darkest time. I'm. I'm below rock bottom.
- [29:22]
A
You know, that Mercury was in retrograde. I think it still is. And I feel like we really felt it.
- [29:27]
B
Yeah.
- [29:28]
A
Like, a lot of weird things happened to us.
- [29:30]
B
So many weird things. But also, if I was a nurse practitioner, I wouldn't have the balls to be like, hannah, can I try it on you? It's like, we clearly learned that it can happen.
- [29:42]
A
It can happen.
- [29:42]
B
It can happen to the best of us.
- [29:44]
A
It's the luck of the draw, so do whatever you want. Okay. You guys know I live for just doing the thing, not overthinking it. Like, why do we need to spend so much time playing it safe and staying inside our comfortable little bubbles? Honestly, the absolute best parts of life happen when you just follow your heart and take a little risk. Like, imagine going to Europe, getting a little lost down some gorgeous cobblestone alley, and trying to order an espresso in a language you don't even know. It's fine. That kind of vulnerability is literally how you grow and actually figure out who you are.
- [30:16]
B
And that's what you're doing right now.
- [30:18]
A
Flew Delta Airlines all the way to Capri.
- [30:20]
B
The vibe on the Delta flights to go to Europe are so chic, elevated. It just makes you feel like a little princess. And I got my Delta headphones and I'm watching my movies. I also think it's so important to travel, and Delta takes care of you during the travel so that you can grow and learn about new cultures and just experience new things. We can't just stay in our bedroom all the time even though it's comfortable. And when I travel I just learned that the world that no one cares and like the worlds are just so much bigger than you. And that's comforting.
- [30:54]
A
It gives you perspective.
- [30:55]
B
Yes. So traveling is the ultimate way to experience some major personal growth and just see what happens. Step outside your comfort zone this summer and fly with Delta Air Lines. Honestly, they completely change the game for European travel and make the whole journey feel so elevated and special. From the second you board, go book your next great chapter right now@delta.com.

B
I'm watching some shows.
- [33:45]
A
You are? Wait, what? Did you see that Kris Jenner's mom died?
- [33:49]
B
Oh, I know. It's. You know how I hate grandparents dying?
- [33:53]
A
I hate when grandparents died. She was 91.
- [33:55]
B
She had a long, beautiful life.
- [33:56]
A
She lived a good, amazing life. But she will be missed on the show for sure.
- [34:01]
B
Maybe she'll make friends with my grandpa.
- [34:03]
A
I was waiting for you. I literally brought it up just to see if you.
- [34:08]
B
I love when you set it up for me. You're like, say it. I know you're gonna say it.
- [34:12]
A
Say it.
- [34:13]
B
Okay.
- [34:13]
A
What shows are you watching? Because. Wait, do you want to hear something so smart that I did?
- [34:17]
B
What?
- [34:18]
A
I saw this show on Amazon and I was like, how have I never seen the show? I watched the first season. It's called the Serpent Queen. It came out in, like, 2023 or something. Originally on, like, Stars. Great. I get through the first season, I'm like, this is the best show I've ever watched in my life. I go to watch season two, can't watch it. And I'm like, okay. Maybe it's because I'm in Italy. My vpn, like, whatever. I, like, do all this stuff to watch my shows. So I text Josephine and I'm like, do me a favor. Go on your Amazon account and see if you can, like, get this show. I feel like it's not available.
- [34:50]
B
Download it. We transfer it to me.
- [34:53]
A
She's like, says it's unavailable. She, like, checks some other streaming platform. She's like, says it's unavailable. So I'm like, googling. And it's like, okay. Might not be available in the United States anymore. So I'm like, where else would it stream? So I set my VPN to England. And I'm like, it definitely plays in England. It's about. It's like a period piece. It's about British people and French people. I find a free streaming platform in England, get the second season, watch the full second season. I'm a woman in stem, but I don't know why they're not making a third season. It's one of the best period pieces I've ever watched. You would hate it. Your mom would love it.
- [35:35]
B
My mom's gonna love it. She's gonna. She' literally writing it down right now while she's listening. The Serpent Queen.
- [35:40]
A
So good.
- [35:41]
B
Yeah. Not something I would click on unless that was a documentary. I'd be really into that.
- [35:45]
A
I'm also watching Little House on the Prairie. Again, not something you would ever click.
- [35:50]
B
I saw that. I don't want to watch these with their weird hats running around.
- [35:53]
A
I.
- [35:54]
B
Why is there hats like that? It's.
- [35:56]
A
It's kind of like precursor trad. Like it's tradition.
- [36:02]
B
I was like, who's Chad?
- [36:03]
A
No, like, it's trash. It's like the origin of trad wives. But it like that was for survival.
- [36:08]
B
Yeah, well, that's the thing.
- [36:10]
A
Trad wise, like, I really trad wives, like low key. They're like, okay, this isn't like what we really meant.
- [36:18]
B
Yeah.
- [36:18]
A
We didn't mean like abandoned all self like this.
- [36:21]
B
Oh, you want to be a trad wife? Walk the Oregon Trail, bitch.
- [36:24]
A
Yeah. Like, I feel like they were trad wives because, like, they would have died.
- [36:28]
B
Yeah.
- [36:28]
A
If they were like they had to keep. Keep themselves alive.
- [36:33]
B
Well, I actually think you might like this show. I do try to find good shows that if you have a boyfriend and I'm sorry if you do. Or a significant other. I try to find shows that like, you and the boyfriend will both like. I wanna recommend Widow's Bay.
- [36:51]
A
Everyone's been talking about it. I haven't.
- [36:53]
B
So it's been under the radar until the Emmy nominations came out and it got the most Emmy nominations of any show. 19 Emmy nominations.
- [37:05]
A
And shout out to my friend Kelly Galus, Emmy nomination.
- [37:09]
B
Because of my mouth right now. Because, you know, again, Emmy nominations, I can't. Nominations. You have to spread nominations. That was a hard one for me, girl. Oh, I need a break. I need to take a rest after this. That.
- [37:24]
A
Okay. Got 19.
- [37:25]
B
19. So what's. It's like creepy and it's like a thriller. It's kind of. But it's not like scary scary. But what I didn't realize about it is it's hilarious.
- [37:39]
A
Like dark humor.
- [37:40]
B
Not even dark, like silly humor.
- [37:42]
A
Like, oh, okay.
- [37:43]
B
For example, there's a scene where this guy is trying to tell people not to go to this in because it's haunted. And he's trying to. He took a wooden board and he's trying to put the board over the door so no one could get in. And the whole scene is them fighting and he's like hammering the door and at the end of the scene, he walks away and someone just opens the door because he just, like, put it on the door, not like around the door. Like, little things like that.
- [38:10]
A
But it's like a murder mystery.
- [38:11]
B
They call it a mystery. I personally, really, really, really am enjoying is creepy and weird. But I love a weird island show. Yeah. Like a. It's like Shutter Island. If it wasn't nearly as scary.
- [38:28]
A
I was just gonna say, are you, like, are you the type of person that's going to turn on that movie obsession? Like, it wouldn't even cross my mind.
- [38:37]
B
I don't like horror.
- [38:39]
A
I don't like anything, like, scary where I'm going to sweat.
- [38:44]
B
You don't want to spike your cortisol.
- [38:46]
A
Yeah. And that's what it is.
- [38:48]
B
That's what it is. I can't have my cortisol spiking.
- [38:50]
A
Yeah. Like, I do so much work to try and wind down. Anything I'm buying on my nightside table is titled Wind down, Settle in. Like, take a breather. Even my candle names, I feel like, are like, chill out for a minute. I'm not then turning something on the TV where, like, I feel like you will turn on a documentary about murder and that won't spike your cortisol, which is interesting because that's nonfiction.
- [39:21]
B
Let's say I have a day where, like, I'm just not feeling good about myself or whatever. I'm not feeling good. I turn on a documentary about a bunch of people who almost died on a cruise ship.
- [39:32]
A
Yeah. Oh, the one on Netflix.
- [39:35]
B
I watched it. I was afraid to watch it because I was like, what's the story here? Like, I get it. It sank. Everyone almost died. It's crazy because they have. So wait, did I just sound like Vanessa Hudgins? It's inevitable people are gonna die.
- [39:52]
A
It's inevitable people are gonna die.
- [39:54]
B
It's so upsetting because cruise ships are like, nothing ever happens on cruise ships. It's not the Titanic.
- [40:02]
A
Like, right, right.
- [40:03]
B
And it's all these people with, like, crazy footage of it. But of course, a man, a cocky ass captain. The long story short, not to give it away, I mean, it sank, but.
- [40:21]
A
Okay, that like, 30 seconds sums up my, like, you as a human. Like, you start a story and then like, halfway through the sentence, you're like, actually, new sentence, new sentence. And then it's like, you know the end of it. You just give away the whole thing. You're like, actually just like, do you want me to go back and give details? Because I just give you Beginning, middle, end.
- [40:42]
B
I highly recommend people watch it.
- [40:45]
A
Well, we don't know what it's about. You didn't explain it at all.
- [40:49]
B
All these people went on this cruise. Is actually in Italy. Don't go on a cruise.
- [40:53]
A
But recently, like what year?
- [40:54]
B
Like 2011. It's. Let's just say Cruise PR and Masseter Botox PR are spiraling right now.
- [41:03]
A
Yeah, I don't think Cruise PR has been good since really it's having a rough.
- [41:08]
B
But this was a fancy one. Like it was like everything was like marble and gold and it was a lot of these people like it's too heavy. One couple. Yeah, one couple got engaged. One couple was there with their one year old daughter. Like, okay. It's all family celebrating things. That's why I hate sometimes vacations and they die. Not everyone.
- [41:30]
A
Okay, well maybe we'll give it a gander.
- [41:32]
B
But it also just shows that the captain, he, he tried to, he went off course because he wanted to like go close to an island. And it's funny how documentaries like at first you're really mad at him because you're like, he basically didn't want to admit that he up. And if he had just admitted it from the beginning, everyone would have time to get away. But he wouldn't say abandon ship. Which apparently is what you're supposed to say. Abandon ship. Like you should have done it.
- [42:01]
A
Does that mean everyone jumps off?
- [42:02]
B
It means let's get off the ship like with the lifeboats and let's organize it.
- [42:07]
A
Got it, got it, got it. It's like starting the process.
- [42:09]
B
Instead they're telling everyone it's fine, it's fine. And if you know about sinking ships, it starts slow and then it gets
- [42:15]
A
fast and with the wrong man. Can also be true.
- [42:20]
B
It's a life lesson to us all. So. And then this motherfucker, the captain abandons the ship before other people. Which apparently is like you're not supposed to do.
- [42:32]
A
I feel like they take an oath to not do.
- [42:35]
B
You're supposed to go down with the ship if you're the captain. And it's not like about being a pirate or something. So. So you're basically like fuck this dude. But then you find out later that this company was trying to compete with all the bigger companies and they basically were like had to hire a lot of people and were training them a little bit too fast to the point that the captain had actually submitted and been like, hey, I think we're, we're hiring.
- [43:02]
A
Nobody knows what they're doing.
- [43:03]
B
Yeah, like I don't think the people under me are, like, actually ready. And then when they found the black box or whatever that has the communications. Yeah, the captain was, like, going about it the wrong way, but it's also because he couldn't understand what happened because he actually didn't really mess up. The person below him messed up. So he, like, couldn't be like. He's like, I'm not banning ship. Like, what actually happened. But they were like, it's flooding. Like, it's flooding. Like, you're fud. And he did go off course. Like, he was kind of being naughty, but he was like, I could. You know, these captains are. They're like, I could do my captain thing.
- [43:41]
A
I. I don't know if it's like, Captain spe specific, but, like, yeah, like, I know how, like, grown men are like, yeah, I can do it. Like, yeah, I can land the plane. Okay, well, wait, you know, we didn't even touch on that. We can't eat any, like, vegetables or lettuce, which.
- [43:58]
B
Not a problem for me. I'm not like, oh, no, I can't have salads. Literally. My friend was like, don't have a salad today. I'm like, gun to my head. I was never going to have a salad today.
- [44:07]
A
Okay, but now that people are saying you can, don't you, like, want one?
- [44:11]
B
No.
- [44:11]
A
See, like, all I'm craving is a berry tart.
- [44:14]
B
Oh, actually, I was with Grace earlier. She comes walking in. There was, like, snacks, and she's holding raspberries. And someone was like, grace, don't do it.
- [44:26]
A
Yeah, that's, like, so scary. Like, literally, we were. When we were on our way home, my dad was like, well, good thing. Like, we have our own garden. Like, we have lettuce. Okay.
- [44:36]
B
Humble Brad Gary.
- [44:38]
A
And I was like, that just sounded so apocalyptic and scary. I was like, good thing you have your own garden.
- [44:44]
B
Good thing we have tuna fish at home.

A
Do you want to know the number one thing I've been crate? I was craving that I, like, had to come home and I ordered bread to have peanut butter and jelly sandwich. I think I might go on a kick of it for the next.
- [44:58]
B
You could get uncrustable.
- [45:00]
A
And they're saying that the parasite whatever came from Taco Bell. Which is so crazy because right when I got to Italy, I was like, oh, I know the first fast food I'm getting when I get home, and it's going to be Taco Bell.
- [45:12]
B
But do you think because you got it already, you're, like, immune?
- [45:16]
A
Well, I don't think I had. That's what I had.
- [45:17]
B
People are saying that's what you had.
- [45:19]
A
So there's murmurs.
- [45:20]
B
So there's murder. There's been murmurs.
- [45:22]
A
I'm the only person in Italy, though. No way.
- [45:25]
B
I can't confirm or deny.
- [45:27]
A
I'm not, I'm not still having, you're
- [45:30]
B
going to say contaminated.
- [45:31]
A
I'm not still having consistent diarrhea though, anymore. I mean, I'm, I mean I'm. I'm not. Not. But I'm not.
- [45:41]
B
We're not solid over here.
- [45:44]
A
I'm definitely not solid. No, I'm definitely not solid, but I'm definitely not. I think I have a parasite vibes. Wait. A girl made a tick tock and she was saying like, you know how when you go out and you like lay out in the sun and then you feel like skinny for whatever reason
- [45:59]
B
or you feel like because you're dehydrated.
- [46:02]
A
But she said the sun is so good for your gut and I believe it.
- [46:07]
B
Well, in New York right now it's really unhealthy the weather because why are we certainly meteorologist meteorologists, but there was a Canadian wildfire and it's, it's blowing in.

It actually looks a lot better today. This off to college season. Save on college and save the everyday. I remember when I first got to college and I thought I was prepared. I know everything that's happening. I was so focused on my daily outfits and making sure I had the perfect esthetic that I completely forgot about one major part of college and that's themed parties. Every other week there was some random theme night and I was always scrambling at the last minute trying to pull something together. Whether it was a costume, accessories, decorations or something group theme. I somehow never had what I needed and I was constantly making a last minute purchase to save the day. College is already so chaotic enough and it's always the little things that catch you off guard. That's why I love Amazon makes off to college shopping so easy. So whether it's dorm essentials, school supplies, organizational items, or those last minute things you suddenly realize you need, Amazon has great deals everyday. Low prices, a huge selection, and the convenience to help you get it all in one place. So remember, with Amazon low off to college prices, just save on college, save the everyday.

- [52:00]
A
No.
- [52:01]
B
Skywalkers. This documentary is insane.
- [52:05]
A
It's a documentary. I thought it sounds like an action movie.
- [52:08]
B
It's actually a love story.
- [52:10]
A
Is it recent?
- [52:11]
B
Yes, very recent.
- [52:12]
A
Okay.
- [52:13]
B
Actually.
- [52:13]
A
Okay.
- [52:13]
B
Where do I even begin? I'm so excited. Okay, so this girl was raised in Russia and her parents were like circus aerial acrobat people.
- [52:24]
A
I'm in.
- [52:24]
B
Yeah. And they're like madly in love and. And they're really talented. The dad cheats and the mom gets into a dark depression and the daughter is like, I will never depend on a man ever seeing what he did to my mother. So she's focused and she's like, I want to do something with my life. And she has the genetics of these like acrobat people. So she's freaky talented as like a gymnast.
- [52:52]
A
I love carnival people. Absolute weirdos. I love it.
- [52:56]
B
Yep. They just live off the grid and do flips and shit.
- [52:59]
A
Yeah.
- [52:59]
B
And this thing starts happening in Russia called rooftopping. And of course it's all the boys. Not.
- [53:06]
A
That sounds nice.
- [53:08]
B
He goes, this tanning involved, that sounds
- [53:11]
A
like a hobby that like, I could get into. I'm like, what's the uv? I've definitely rooftopped before. So as a verb for sure.
- [53:23]
B
All these boys who don't want to go to therapy are going around basically in. In Moscow or whatever, going to the top of rooftops. And they like. And they like take photos for the social media. And it's like you have to kind of break into a lot of these places. Like, you can't just go on people's rooftops. So like, part of it is like you have to be like a spy kind of. You're not vandalizing anything. You're just getting to the rooftop.
- [53:45]
A
You're just trespassing.
- [53:46]
B
Exactly.
- [53:47]
A
Okay.
- [53:48]
B
So it becomes this thing and she's like, I don't care that I'm a girl. I. I want a rooftop. And she starts posting these like, really creative, cool rooftops because she can do like cool poses. She's also like, gorgeous. So she starts going viral. But then there's this other boy who's
- [54:04]
A
like doing the splits on rooftops.
- [54:06]
B
Yes. She's like, has her leg behind her neck and like she's wearing like a ballerina outfit. It's like iconic.
- [54:10]
A
This is all happening in Russia.
- [54:12]
B
Yeah. Then there's this other guy who's like the shit, like the head rooftopper. And she's like inspired by him. And he definitely notices her. Like, he notices she's doing cool stuff. Stuff.
- [54:23]
A
How old are they?
- [54:24]
B
They're like early 20s.
- [54:26]
A
Okay.
- [54:27]
B
And they're both hot and. Which is why you might like it. So then.
- [54:31]
A
Okay.
- [54:32]
B
He messages her out of nowhere and he's like, do you want to do this deal with me? This brand deal? Cuz there's rooftopping brand deals.
- [54:41]
A
A modern.
- [54:41]
B
A modern love story.
- [54:43]
A
The most modern love story.
- [54:46]
B
He goes, use code Russia22Rooftop20 to get 20 off Neutrogena.
- [54:57]
A
Actually, I remember what my third thing was.
- [55:00]
B
What is it?
- [55:05]
A
When I get back from a trip, I'm so dry and in the shower, my Neutrogena Oil. Thank you for reminding me.
- [55:13]
B
What kind of oil?
- [55:14]
A
Any one of them. Neutrogena Rain Bath Body Wash is, like, my top.
- [55:19]
B
Amazing.
- [55:20]
A
And their oil, I usually only use it in the winter, but I do use it when I get back.
- [55:25]
B
So you never feel, like, too slippery?
- [55:27]
A
No, because you, like, rinse it a little when you are in there.
- [55:30]
B
So anyway, he messages her and she's like, I'm kind of worried. Like, I don't want to go all the way to China with this random guy. But, like, I need money. And
- [55:41]
A
why'd they have to go to China to do the brand deal?
- [55:43]
B
They get a lot of attention when they do certain buildings. Certain. It's like a really big building in China, and they're like, go to the top and, like, hold our product or whatever.
- [55:55]
A
Are the skyscraper people from New York Rooftoppers.
- [55:59]
B
They are the Empire State couple, and you don't find that out till later. And then it made me think they did that whole thing to promote their documentary. And then I was like, wait, is Netflix in on it? But they got fully arrested. Like, I think Netflix was probably like, maybe don't do this promo. Do. Do the Today show, maybe.
- [56:18]
A
And my PR team's not working hard enough because this is the most genius marketing. Who cares? They got arrested. What's it?
- [56:27]
B
She didn't have her phone for a couple days. Must have been fucking nice. Okay, so they go to China and they're videotaping it, and you see them, like, like, meeting each other, and they're, like, kind of cute and, like, flirting. And then it shows them, like, going to. She's, like, learning from him, and he's learning from her. They have to trust each other. But when I tell you, like, I wouldn't. I'm, like, scared of heights in a normal person way. Like, I'm not, like, yeah, I'm fucking scared of heights.
- [56:53]
A
Like, I'm not doing, like, one. I'm never jumping out of a plane. Are you doing a hot air balloon?
- [56:59]
B
Not necessary. Like, that's. I don't want to be in a Netflix documentary.
- [57:03]
A
No, me neither.
- [57:04]
B
When in doubt, be like, will this get me into a weird Netflix documentary one day that'll entertain someone over my death?
- [57:11]
A
No.
- [57:12]
B
So they start doing skyscrapers, which means, like, you get to the top and then it has this, like. I forget what it's called, but it's like the penis at the top. You climb up that thing and get to the top, and they start falling in love with each other, and they're, like, madly in love, and they Start posting together and they both are getting even bigger and blowing up. And long story short, they have like, they climb like the highest building in like Malaysia or something. And it's the scariest experience. They get to the top and he holds her like a. Like some crazy. When I. But I kept telling myself they don't die. You know, they're on the Empire State Building. They don't die. But the fact these. But also all their friends are dead.
- [58:00]
A
What's the long. I was just gonna say what's the longevity?
- [58:04]
B
She's like, we lost Jeff because they're falling. Yeah. She literally was like, all the people I came up with, it's like comedy. I'm like, all the people I used to do comedy with gone.
- [58:16]
A
I don't get it because like, when you said rooftop, I genuinely was thinking like apartment building.
- [58:24]
B
Yeah. Like the fourth floor of a townhome.
- [58:27]
A
So they're like scaling them free.
- [58:29]
B
Like, I don't honestly, they can go in through elevator. They go. There's all these like, ways they go. And they always say also that going in is harder, but leaving is really easy. No one questions you when you're leaving. They do apartment complex. They do all kinds of things. But they get so high and they're filming themselves too. So they're also like a full production team. Like they have a drone in the documentary.
- [58:49]
A
Are they showing the people that have passed away that are. Are their friends? Are they like giving a little story on them?
- [58:54]
B
Like, no, they're just like, Jeff's gone. She's like, not up. Jeff. There he goes.
- [59:05]
A
No, it's not funny.
- [59:06]
B
It's not funny. But also like, they. People knew what they were getting into. Well, cuz what makes them go viral is the more dangerous it is. So like, they try to go more dangerous.
- [59:16]
A
I am so proud of people that carve their own niche. Like, be unique. Do what you want to do. It wouldn't even come into my brain to like, okay, I lose my job. How am I making money? I'll scale a building. I knew. It's like, maybe I'll like get a desk job. Scalability.
- [59:37]
B
Well, they keep having to like, do better each time. Like beat their last climb. Then the girl, like, at one point, like, she breaks her hand and she's like, I can still do it. I'm like, what?
- [59:48]
A
No, I wouldn't even go up there with a gangly insist. I mean, where are they getting married is the question.
- [59:54]
B
Oh, like every skyscraper is like, can you just look out for these two? Because their wedding dates Approaching.
- [60:01]
A
They're like, they're getting married on the moon.
- [60:03]
B
Oh, my God. So anyway, that was. I actually didn't want to watch it. And then I started watching it and I was really into that on Netflix. I'm very into people who are able to, like, have a hobby, to like, yeah. Forget about everything else going on in the world. Like, that's all they care about is climbing.
- [60:18]
A
Well, I do. I am being serious. Like, I do envy people that like, have a hobby and then they're like, how am I making money from this? I think that that is such a special set of skills to be like,
- [60:30]
B
I can, with yapping, figure out how
- [60:32]
A
to make this my life. Yeah. So that whenever I hear stories like that, I'm like, what was your hobby?
- [60:38]
B
Yeah.
- [60:38]
A
I'm like, this is my public forum.
- [60:40]
B
My therapist did tell me I need to get hobbies that aren't monetized and that I don't show anyone, which is totally valid. But I've not started any because I'm like, what's the point of this?
- [60:51]
A
Speaking of hobbies, I get my book for Italy that I'm like reading. When I get it in the mail, I realized that it's like 430 pages and I'm like, okay. The girls didn't warn me that I honestly was a perfect book for my ganglin, but I didn't have to use it. So I bring the book on vacation. I also brought strangers because my mom wanted to read it and I had like 50 pages left in it. Kim takes strangers. She reads it on the plane ride there. She reads it for like the first maybe two days of vacation. She hands it back. She's like, I finished this.
- [61:26]
B
What?
- [61:26]
A
And I was like, okay. Like, I'll finish the rest of it.
- [61:29]
B
Parents read so fucking fast. Wait, was she pissed off after?
- [61:34]
A
No, she wasn't pissed off. She was more like. It was. It was a quick read, it was easy. It's very depressing though. Very sad. Like, that was her take.
- [61:41]
B
She was like, looking at Gary weird.
- [61:44]
A
No. Because my dad doesn't have an email. No. If my dad was up and leaving, Kim would have known. Six months.
- [61:55]
B
Kim was like, I would never be left in the dark with this. But if anything, Kim.
- [62:00]
A
Kim would be the one to jet. She's the only one that knows how to get out of the. Out of town. So she reads that. Then she. I'm like, well, I have another book that I brought. And she's like, okay, hand it over. She reads a 430 page book in like, five. Like, at her leisure.
- [62:23]
B
Yeah.
- [62:24]
A
And, like, literally, we're getting on the plane to go home, and she's like, I finished that book last night. And I was like, I didn't even start it. Like, I literally was on page, like, 13, and I was like, should we go in the pool? And then, like, I never picked it up.
- [62:37]
B
But you're like, I got the gist. I got the. That's what I did with Harry Potter. I was like, I read the first five pages, and I was like, got it.
- [62:44]
A
And then I realize I am, like, six, still in sixth grade, like, having to do a book report. I'm like, okay, well, like, just tell me what it's about.
- [62:50]
B
Does read Wuthering Heights in two days and, like, understood it?
- [62:54]
A
No, I just. I just feel like we're losing the art of reading.
- [62:59]
B
You're like. And I. The reason.
- [63:02]
A
I'm like, there's no way I would be able to do that. And then I felt, like, so stupid that I wouldn't have been able to do that.
- [63:09]
B
But you can put together a photo dump on Instagram, like, nobody's business.
- [63:14]
A
Well, I'm trying not to put pressure on myself, but, like, I started reading in January, so, like, not putting pressure on myself. I just want to see how many books I can read.
- [63:22]
B
Why don't we start with picture books? Start small. What do not.
- [63:27]
A
So I'm gonna do. So far, I've read two books, and I want to finish another two by the end of the summer.
- [63:34]
B
Wait, I love that for you.
- [63:35]
A
I just ordered yesteryear, too. I'm also just, like, obsessed with ordering books.
- [63:39]
B
And then, wait, no. I order every book I own every book that's ever been written. It's so cute.
- [63:44]
A
There's something so fun.
- [63:45]
B
I was read yesteryear just because I told him it was, like, popular, and
- [63:49]
A
he was like, wait, was it good? Because I just got it.
- [63:52]
B
He liked it. He had notes. My mom read it because my thing is, if everyone's reading it around me, I'm like, I kind of through osmosis.
- [63:59]
A
When I was sick, I. There was a moment where I was like, mom, what if you just, like, read the book to me? She was like, well, I'm in the middle of it. Like, you want me to start from the beginning? I'm like, oh, why does that remind
- [64:12]
B
me of when you're young and you have to, like, write an essay and you're like, mom, could you just give me the first sentence?
- [64:17]
A
That actually was a huge part of my childhood. My mom was Always reading to me.
- [64:21]
B
Could you give me, like, the third sentence?
- [64:23]
A
Yeah.
- [64:24]
B
Oh, well, my mom was a military officer and would make my brother and I read, like, there was, like, a competition of, like, how many books you could read over the summer. We would read, like, an insane, insane amount of books. I think I'm. I was gone too hard. Like, this is me. Like, I was too doing too much.
- [64:44]
A
God puts you in the right family, because I would have. Oh, my God.
- [64:50]
B
I was doing tennis practice. I was reading as many books as I can. There was, like, a library thing where they had your name and you had to, like, put all the book. Like, everyone could shame you if you didn't get enough books.
- [65:01]
A
Yeah, that's so you.
- [65:03]
B
But my mom was a teacher, so that was, like, her whole thing. Yeah. It wasn't her fault.
- [65:07]
A

Thank you guys so much for giggling with us this week. We love you so much. Talk to you later. Bye. Howdy, howdy ho, and welcome to Fantasy Fan. Fellas, I'm Hayden, producer of the Fantasy Fangirls podcast and your resident lover of all things San. And I'm Stephen, your bookish Internet goofball. But you can call me the Smash Daddy.
