Sup gigglers? Gary, fix your wi fi. Manifest that shit. We can't be manic. I mean, the day just got away from me. What's up my giddy little gigglers?
Paige DeSorbo
Oh, I thought you were gonna say something like to do with your new cat.
Hannah Berner
No, I'm actually having a little problem in my marriage right now because his knee is finally feeling better. I know it seems like I like heard him on purpose, but Like, I love a gimpy man. They're weak.
Paige DeSorbo
People don't talk about gimpy men enough.
Hannah Berner
He's back, like, feeling better. So this morning he was like, hey, I have a workout scheduled for us. And I was like, okay, that's like, not appropriate.
Paige DeSorbo
No, it's literally not appropriate.
Hannah Berner
Where are our boundaries in this relationship?
Paige DeSorbo
You know what I want, like, a man that has really bad migraines.
Hannah Berner
He locks himself in the dark room.
Paige DeSorbo
And they're like, sorry, I have to be alone in a dark room for seven hours while my medicine kicks in. Can you like, be really quiet somewhere else? Perfect. Yeah, that's my dream.
Hannah Berner
No. So, like, we did boxing and I was like, are we just going to fight?
Paige DeSorbo
Oh, my God. That's not a scheduled workout. That's like an intense cardio for 45 minutes.
Hannah Berner
That's why I was like, can we wait to do the pod? Because I was like screaming, crying, throwing up. I was like shaking and then I was like, low blood sugar, so I had to eat a turkey club.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah.
Hannah Berner
And then I had to digest it a little and I. My whole day has been thrown and I was like, I don't know. I like to slowly start my day. And by slowly I mean 4pm I'll start being like, what do we want, Hannah? We.
Paige DeSorbo
We're just always so connected. I can't stand it. I've been being put through a workout regimen this weekend as well. Except it's literally feels like I. It feels like I joined an old folks home and like I'm in a retirement community with my parents. And my parents run the old folks home because the schedule that they've had laid out for me. Dinner at 6pm we have to do our 3 mile walk prior to it's water aerobics. The pace at which they walk the park. I couldn't keep up. I was like, guys, you gotta slow down.
Hannah Berner
What? In the morning, are they giving you beta blockers and jello? Take your beta blocker page. You know what happens when you don't. You know what happens?
Paige DeSorbo
Freaking Italian. My. I came home, my dad was like, see, all you needed was a couple days with your mother to get back to just knock some sense into you.
Hannah Berner
Like, it's honestly so true.
Paige DeSorbo
It's. It was really refreshing because I think they're the only people in my life that were like, you're not going on medicine, you psycho. Like, maybe if you just slept a nor like a normal person.
Hannah Berner
See, I was like, what is the strongest drugs you guys have?
Paige DeSorbo
Literally, I Felt like Britney Spears. I had everyone on my team calling me, being like, just checking in to make sure you took your medicine.
Hannah Berner
Well, I started comparing you to Marilyn Monroe. I was like, this is how they got her. Like, they gave her drugs to get her up, then they gave her drugs to get her down. And they were like, you have a show in San Diego tomorrow. Get it together. And then literally, my favorite part of the weekend was you in the Uber telling me how you think you feeling the bump on your back because you thought you had a spinal.
Paige DeSorbo
A spinal tumor?
Hannah Berner
Yeah, a spinal tumor. Uber driver laughing because I was like, I don't. I think we'd know if you had a spinal tumor.
Paige DeSorbo
No, I have a new ailment that I've been Googling incessantly that I think I have. I think I suffer from vertigo.
Hannah Berner
This is so your 30s. You start looking outward. You're like, look, I've been trying, and clearly it's not me. There's external things happening, external factors.
Paige DeSorbo
And so I've been looking into that more and more. I might even start going to acupuncture.
Hannah Berner
Okay. And I put in the newsletter. Apparently, Taylor Swift swears by it. This acupuncture mat that's, like, I sent to you, that's 25 on Amazon.
Paige DeSorbo
I put it in my Amazon Live.
Hannah Berner
Apparently it's kind of painful, but you basically physically just, like, lie down and the spikes hit you again. These are things people do instead of going to therapy.
Paige DeSorbo
No, truly. Okay. So you sent me that text message of the mat. I immediately ordered it, got it, used it, like a couple times, put it in my Amazon live, and even said, in my Amazon live. I was like, look, is this going to change your life? I have no idea. But it does make me feel better knowing that I have it at home. And then after my live, one of my cameramen said, no, I actually own that. And I swear by it. The trick is you have to lay on it for like, a solid 15 minutes. He was like, and then you do, like, your body will start, like, tingling a little and you do feel different. He was like, but people don't lay on it long enough to feel the effects. Like, you really have to lay on it. And I was like, oh, lay longer. No problem.
Hannah Berner
You've got 800. Try me, please. He goes, it's going to be hard to stay in one composition for a long time.
Paige DeSorbo
I was like, I've been training for this.
Hannah Berner
The good news about having this week off, this last week. And, like, by off, that's a strong Word. But I was able to catch up on a lot of shows of tv. And I have some hot takes. I do have to say the funniest thing about the last episode we recorded, which, by the way, we got. So I got so many messages, so I can't imagine how many you got. No, People just being loving that you were being open.
Paige DeSorbo
It was like taking a beta blocker. I just felt. Because I will say this because I don't. I don't want to make this another therapy pod, but I will say the biggest fear of, like, those anxiety attacks was that, like, I was in the wrong career. Like, I had picked wrong, and, like, I was, like, a lie and all. And, like, I should just pack it in and, like, you know, I mean.
Hannah Berner
I was forcing you to do it.
Paige DeSorbo
No. And thank God. And I had so many girls say that exact thing. Like, I had this one girl message me and be like, I'm a lawyer, and every time I have to, like, interrogate the other side. Like, I have to take a beta blocker. And I thought, oh, my God, I went through law school. I went through all of this, and I can't even do it. Like, this is the wrong career for me. And so I just feel like it made so many girls feel seen in their career. Like, we're late 20s, early 30s. We're, like, just at the. Like, people actually need us now at our jobs. Like, we didn't think that this would happen, so we've hit, like, this point where we're like, whoa, whoa, whoa. Like, this is. It's too much. So I just want to say thank you to the gigglers. It really. It helped me more than, you know.
Hannah Berner
Yeah. And also, you have to do something that scares you to feel alive. And I know there's some things that, like, you're scared and you suck at it, and it's like, that's one thing, but, like, you're actually so amazing on stage.
Paige DeSorbo
You know, if you're horrible at your job and you're having anxiety, maybe think twice.
Hannah Berner
You mean. I love quitting. I've. I love quitting or getting fired. Do that. That's fine. But, like, when you actually. It gets you to feel alive. Also sometimes, like, when you're leveling up in your life, it's gonna be uncomfortable.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah.
Hannah Berner
And getting past that discomfort because, like, you literally mid panic attack, were so fucking funny on stage, and you're just. It's very natural for you, but there could be another life that you just, like, stayed home and, like, were a personal assistant for Someone. And, like, you can do that tomorrow. You can. You have freedom at any time, which is beautiful.
Paige DeSorbo
No, at any time. I'm like, you know what? I will just start an organizational company.
Hannah Berner
I'm starting a cat sanctuary, like, any second.
Paige DeSorbo
Wait, Hannah, can we switch topics before we get into your TV shows that you randomly just went and adopted a cat this weekend. You haven't even showed me him. Is it a girl? Is it a boy? What's its name?
Hannah Berner
I didn't adopt him.
Unknown
Who adopted him?
Hannah Berner
Dez's brother, Aiden.
Paige DeSorbo
Oh, I couldn't read that whole thing.
Hannah Berner
No, you could. Yeah. But also, I just wanted to let the gigglers know Aiden's also available for adoption, if anyone is interested.
Paige DeSorbo
You woke up the next day and were like, let's go adopt him.
Hannah Berner
So the story was, I did write this long, long, long caption. And then at the bottom, I wrote in the comments, this is longer than a relationship that has ups and downs.
Paige DeSorbo
No, truly.
Hannah Berner
I was like, the thing is, when it comes to cats, I'm like, the cat people will appreciate this. Like, they want the details. They're like, tell me everything. So, long story short, I was. I'm trying to relax in West Hampton because I, like, you know, exhausted dealing with your, you know. Yep. And I'm. I'm trying to cleanse my soul from our demons that we've been fighting. And this is actually so sad, but I'm. I'm lying with Butter watching tv, and Butter starts growling, and I'm like, do you not like the channel we're watching is this character. Do you not like the plot line? Like, I'll change it, whatever you want. And then she jumps up and, like, chucks herself out the window, and I'm like, oh, it's probably a squirrel. Butter hates other cats. Like, she's very territorial. So I look outside, and it's like this orange and white cat that looks just like my dad's cat. And whenever I see a cat, I always try to, like, pet it. So I open up the door. Normally, when you open the door, the cat's like, no, thank you, and runs away. This cat literally walks towards me, and I'm like, oh, you found the right house, motherfucker. You found the right house. I'm giving it food. I'm petting it. I call dez. Des is like, don't fucking let the cat inside the house. I swear to God, don't let the cat inside the house. And I'm like, I am. This cat chose us. Like, this cat needs us.
Paige DeSorbo
The cat Owns the house now. Sorry, I actually put it in her name.
Hannah Berner
The cat owns the house. I go, any of this cat wants. This cat is getting. Yeah. And the cat, it has balls.
Paige DeSorbo
Okay.
Hannah Berner
By the way, cat balls. This is going to sound weird. So fucking cute. And they're hairy, they're furry, so they just have these two little fluffs and they're little. And by their tail, it's so cute. And I. But this is the thing. I'm like, is this just someone's outdoor cat that is having fun and it's so friendly? But then I realize all cats are neutered. Like, even anyone's cat, you have to get it neutered. And then it's full of fleas, it's dirty and starving.
Paige DeSorbo
How did you know it was full of fleas?
Hannah Berner
It kept, like, itching itself and it was dirty, but it was, like, rolling around on its back like the nicest cat.
Paige DeSorbo
Where? In your living room?
Hannah Berner
No, no, no. On my porch. On my porch. So then finally, after petting it for, I'm gonna say an hour, I was like, I have to go back to my other baby. I walk back in, she hisses at me because I smell like another cat. Like, I felt like I cheated. I had to go in the shower and wash this other cat off me so Butter could sleep with me.
Paige DeSorbo
Oh, my God. She's like, dirty Butter is that my slut?
Hannah Berner
Butter is that bitch. She's like, get that gross as outdoor, dirty ass cat off you. So next day, like Clockwork, we're watching TV and this cat shows up again at 10pm Just looking in, like, so cute. Like. Like he wanted to join the party.
Paige DeSorbo
Same time as the night before.
Hannah Berner
Same time as the night before.
Paige DeSorbo
He's on a schedule.
Hannah Berner
He's on a schedule. And then I'm thinking maybe over the summer, he had like, a family that was feeding him, and then they, like, left West Hampton come fall, and he, like, lost his source. So I am texting Jill, who works at the Southampton Animal Shelter. She's my cat shaman. She tells me what to do, and I'm like, jill, we have an emergency. What do I do? And she's like, can you get him in the garage? So I'm full Steve Irwin at this point. And I. The cat follows me down the stairs into the garage. I shut the garage door, and the cat's like, not happy with me. Like, what the fuck? Like, I. I trusted you and you trapped my ass. And I get upset, but I'm like, look, we have to neuter you. So I'M like, falling asleep. I could hear the cat meowing. I'm all upset. In the morning, I wake up and they come and get the cat and they bring it to the shelter to neuter it. And I'm talking to Aiden, who's driving me into the city. Cause I can't drive. And I'm telling you about the cat. And he's like, yeah, you know, like, wouldn't it be cool? Like, maybe I should get a cat. Like, I don't know. Is it a good cat? Is he a good cat? And I'm like, yeah, it's a fucking cat.
Paige DeSorbo
I feel like that's exactly how the conversation went.
Hannah Berner
You think it's a good. It's like a good one. I'm like, it's a good one. So the next day, that's all I'm thinking about. So I text her. I'm like, how's he doing? Can I come and see him? And then Aiden comes. The cat, like, rubs his head on Aiden. And Aiden's like, yeah, take this cat. This cat's a good cat. Oh, so the cat has been adopted by Aiden. And. And again, Aiden's a dog guy.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah.
Hannah Berner
Fosters pit bulls. This cat puts his head on his lap and just lies there and falls asleep. And Aiden's like, I fucking love this cat.
Paige DeSorbo
The power of Giggly Squad knows no bounds. Okay? It knows no bounds.
Hannah Berner
No bounds. All the cats are, like, huge Giggly Squad fans. They're like, have you heard this podcast promoting us? Like, they love us. Not sponsored. But seriously, Southampton Animal Shelter, if you're in Long island, go. They have so many cute, good kittens right now.
Paige DeSorbo
Oh, my gosh. My cat is somewhere under. Under the bed right now because she met Polo this weekend, and she was, like, not having it. It really took Polo, like, a minute to even know she was in the room. Because he can't. Swell. Yeah, he's. It's honestly so sad. He's so old.
Hannah Berner
And like, I tell her Polo was like, a zaddy.
Paige DeSorbo
I was like, look, I got Polo when I was 18. He's like an old man now. Like, just be respectful. And Daphne wanted nothing to do with him. She was like.
Hannah Berner
She was like, oh.
Paige DeSorbo
She was like, you didn't tell me prior to. Like, I'm not prepared. I have to go like. And I was like, I get it.
Hannah Berner
I do have to say sorry. The funniest part about last episode, though, was we stopped recording. And you just look at me after this, like, emotional outpour and you go, okay, I'm gonna Watch the Menendez brothers movie. And I go, yeah, don't think that's a good idea. No, don't think that's a good idea at all. And then you leave. And I'm like, okay, I'm worried.
Paige DeSorbo
I'm beyond obsessed with the Menendez brothers. I've gotten into multiple fights with my parents on how they deserve to be released from jail.
Hannah Berner
Wait, your parents think they shouldn't?
Paige DeSorbo
Well, yeah, because my parents didn't watch the show, and they're going off, like, the 90s. I'm like, you don't even get it. I was like, there was so much more to the story. Like, they were being sexually abused. Like, I went into this whole thing.
Hannah Berner
I was like, well, the whole thing was in the 90s. Like, people did not realize that men could be sexually used.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah. Which is.
Hannah Berner
I do have to say I was. I'm so obsessed with Cooper Koch, however you say his name. And I thought he was straight. And I was like, I'm obsessed with him. He's my new boyfriend.
Paige DeSorbo
But the other one is. The other one's straight.
Hannah Berner
The other one is straight. Some girl posted that, like, she had this situationship with him before he got the role. And, like, he. She got the ick from him and broke up with him. And now he's. He's like, the biggest oh, my God. Sex symbol right now.
Paige DeSorbo
Which brings me to the other show that I told you to watch. Nobody wants this, which is, like, all over.
Hannah Berner
I'm so embarrassed. I posted. Oh, my God, is it Aaron Foster? I love. Nobody told us we should do this. Like, I wrote the wrong title. Nobody wants us to do this or something. And people were like, that's literally not.
Paige DeSorbo
The title of the show.
Hannah Berner
Who knew? Adam Brody. I knew. I didn't.
Paige DeSorbo
I did.
Hannah Berner
I didn't.
Paige DeSorbo
You didn't watch the OC I didn't.
Hannah Berner
Watch the OC I just thought he was some nerdy dude. And also, you know what? The guy who plays Joe in the serial killer thing.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah.
Hannah Berner
I'm not into him that way. Like, I like him, but I don't think he's, like, hot.
Paige DeSorbo
Did you watch Gossip Girl?
Hannah Berner
No.
Paige DeSorbo
No. Okay, so then please don't speak on issues that you have not researched and have challengers.
Hannah Berner
I was bright with challengers.
Paige DeSorbo
I'm into knowing Seth Cohen is one of the best male high school characters on any show that I ever watched through my teens. Like, yeah, Seth Cohen is the reason that when I moved to New York, I was like, you love Jewish boyfriend. I need a Jewish boyfriend. Like, if I don't have a Jewish boyfriend, I'm gonna freak out.
Hannah Berner
It's just. But you understand if you just see.
Paige DeSorbo
Photos of him, you're like, okay, but he's so funny.
Hannah Berner
I know. I hate. I hate when there's a role for a man where you're supposed to, like, he's the heartthrob, but then he talks, and you're like, no one really likes this man. No, he's that guy. Like, he's great, and Kristen Bell's great.
Paige DeSorbo
And the fact that Seth Cohen is married and what is his real name? Adam, Whatever. Is married to Leighton Meester is like, makes sense. It makes sense because he was my favorite male character of all shows, and she was my favorite girl. So, like, the fact that they hook.
Hannah Berner
Up on the show.
Paige DeSorbo
They weren't ever on shows together.
Hannah Berner
Oh, I thought they were both on Gossip Girl.
Paige DeSorbo
No, she was on Gossip Girl. He was on the OC they're not the same show.
Hannah Berner
Are you sure?
Paige DeSorbo
Definitely. That had some years between it, but, like, all cw Also, Gossip Girl was east coast.
Hannah Berner
OC Was west. Yeah, okay. OC Was like Laguna beach and Gossip Girl was like Real Housewives in New York.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah, no, they were younger. Yep. That's exactly. Got it.
Hannah Berner
Okay. Well, it was very light and fun and easy to watch.
Paige DeSorbo
It was light. It was fun. I felt like when they were talking, I felt like when it was the scenes with the sisters and they were, like, talking about the podcast, like, it was very you and me coded. Like, she had when she had to go to the dinner, like, without Aaron, basically. And they're like, you are not gonna be able to do it. You don't know anything about the podcast. She was like, whatever. Like, I can do it. It's fine.
Hannah Berner
It was giving our pod where we do have important meetings and one of us eventually breaks being able to be professional, and then we say, like, some inappropriate stuff, and there's a pause, and then someone goes. And that's why we love them. And that's why we love them. They're so themselves. They have such good chemistry. That's like that Variety article that just came out.
Paige DeSorbo
No. There have been so many zoom meetings where I'm like, I think we've lost the plot here.
Hannah Berner
I just started trying to make Paige laugh, and the people are like, okay, let's stay focused here. And I'm like, wouldn't it be funny? And you enable me.
Paige DeSorbo
We are the definition of like in school, where you, like, weren't allowed to sit next to your friend because you'd laugh so much. We are the definition of, like, jokes on, you bitch. Like, when we're adults, we're going to be in the same office.
Hannah Berner
So, like, every now and then I feel like there's someone who's just trying to get by their job. Like, just last meeting of the day.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah.
Hannah Berner
And then they're like, girls, can you please just. Can we just stay focused? Or they'll say something. I'll be like, can you explain that again for a two year old? Because, like, that made no sense. And I'm not pretending I understood what you said.
Paige DeSorbo
Sometimes we'll get into meetings and I'll, like, barely even know what it's for. And Hannah will come in and change everything. Like, it just.
Hannah Berner
Look, I do have to say, I actually love a fucking meeting. And I'll show up looking Iraq.
Paige DeSorbo
And I say I go, camera, offer all of them. Hannah's there, camera on, and she's like, I actually have new thoughts, and I think we should change everything to something different. We're like, okay.
Hannah Berner
And I'll be like, in the most ridiculous scenario, I'm like, in a grocery store. And they're like, we can't hear you. We can't see you. Are you kidnapped? What's going on? No, I have thought, but, yeah, the Menendez. I do have to say I can't get myself to watch the last episode. I think, one, because it's upsetting and two, because I'm like, let's. I didn't understand the mistrial part. I don't understand why they were like, I don't understand mistrials. It was. The whole thing was pissing me off.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah, I didn't finish it. I think I had like three up, three or two or three episodes left. And I was just like, I feel like it's getting a little repetitive. I will say probably because I just watched the documentary in Vogue on Hulu, which was so fucking good. I didn't expect it to be as good as it was because usually fashion documentaries, sometimes you're like, okay, boring, like, whatever. Yeah.
Hannah Berner
And I've seen the supermodel documentary.
Paige DeSorbo
So I was like, yeah, this was. This was good. I want, like, a better, like, a more updated documentary on Anna Wintour's, like, life before she became the editor of American Vogue. But anyway. But one of the things that they were saying in that documentary was, like, how much culture impacts fashion. And really, like, fashion takes from, like, whatever's going on in the country, like in those days, like, on how you dress and whatever. And I Have this feeling that 80s fashion is gonna, like, really come back. And I think it. The start of it was this Menendez brother show. And I think we're gonna see more like 80s shows and people start to dress more 80s.
Hannah Berner
Okay, that was so smart of you. First of all.
Paige DeSorbo
Thank you.
Hannah Berner
Second of all, there is. It is known that, like, there's. It's always like 30 years or something prior. Because if you think about it, the. Who are the people in charge right now? The people who were 80s kids.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah.
Hannah Berner
They're the ones making decisions. But I do have to say I don't. I mean, obviously I'm gonna go with the trend probably, but, like, I love the 90s trend. Like, I wanted to stay forever.
Paige DeSorbo
I know.
Hannah Berner
It's funny because in the 90s, we all thought it was horrible. We were like, this is the worst ever.
Paige DeSorbo
I just. I don't like. I rather 90s than early 2000s. I, like, don't like early 2000 stuff. But 80s, I could be so down with. I love a shoulder pad.
Unknown
You love a shoulder pad.
Hannah Berner
Love. I love a shoulder pad. I do. I do have to say this is my. The first time I've been, like, really aware of trends like that. Every season there's more trends.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah. I think.
Hannah Berner
And now everyone's like, yeah, and now everyone's like, you need suede.
Paige DeSorbo
Like, yeah, suede. And then actually people wearing rays long suede trench. Because I was like, oh, my God, I need a suede trench.
Hannah Berner
Yeah. If you don't have suede, like, no one's gonna take you seriously.
Paige DeSorbo
Zara has some pretty good suede stuff right now.
Hannah Berner
Are people wearing berets?
Paige DeSorbo
I feel like people always wear berets. I think. I don't think you're gonna see a lot of people in these hats because they're kind of, like, hard to pull off. And I feel like people, obviously, but it's really more like. It's called a pill box hat. Are like, really in. It's like the hats that Jackie O used to wear. Like, I've been seeing those a lot, but I don't. You probably won't see them for, like, a little, because in trends, like, I feel like you see it on the Runway. It's said in the fashion community this is going to be a trend in the spring, so, like, the fashion girlies kind of start doing it. But until, like, it gets to stores and, like, mass people are doing it, it's still like a full year.
Hannah Berner
The trickle down effect. I do have to say I'm not Happy about people saying that big sunglasses are back. But you hate big sunglasses. No, because I have a small head. So like, even a normal sunglass looks like a mosquito on me. And I'm like, really upset about it because I really like those little 90s glasses. They make me feel normal.
Paige DeSorbo
I think you can still wear them. I will.
Hannah Berner
Because I can't pull off a big sunglass like no one would take me seriously with.
Paige DeSorbo
We'd have to find. We'd have to find the right big. Maybe that's something we'll do. We'll go, okay, we'll vlog it. We'll go to a sunglass store and we'll really find what the best shape is for you.
Hannah Berner
There's nothing worse than putting on sunglasses and looking at someone and being like, what do you think? And they go, no, no, no, no.
Paige DeSorbo
I think. I think that's what Stephanie was worried about when we went wedding dress shopping. That I was just like, no.

So I don't know about you, but my tick tock algorithm is full of just girls trying different hair colors on in that like, yeah, cut, edit every video and. Yes. Do I have to watch it all? Yes, because I have to see which hair color she looks best in. But, like, how is this the premium content of TikTok?
Paige DeSorbo
And I'm just gonna say everyone looks better with their natural. I feel like everyone that I've seen looks best with what their natural hair color is.
Hannah Berner
It's like everyone loves brunette. Everyone looks good in brunette. Yeah, except for me. I'm red. Have you heard about the, like, fame theory about hair?
Paige DeSorbo
No.
Hannah Berner
So this one girl basically said that, like, the reason Tate McRae isn't popping to, like, next level status, which I don't know if I disagree with. I think she is popping that status, but they said because she's bronze. And how you have to either be blonde or brunette or red. You can't be like just like a in between hair color. Like you like Chapel Roan. They think when she went red, like, they're talking about me, like, when I was kidding. But like, wait, you have like, Olivia Rodrigo is dark brunette, Britney Spears blonde.
Paige DeSorbo
Like, you pick blonde.
Hannah Berner
Blonde. And there was like another example of someone who's a bronze celebrity that, like, is kind of in between right now. And they were like, she has to pick, like, Billie Eilish. When she started going like, green, everyone started loving her.
Paige DeSorbo
Wait, that's so interesting. And I kind of. I kind of get it.
Hannah Berner
Your rise on Summer House. I think your fucking Bob like, put you on the map first to be like, who's that girl with that look? Because if you had just like bronze normal hair, it's harder. I don't know, it's just like a mental thing that they're saying.
Paige DeSorbo
I feel like it's because you're like, innate.
Hannah Berner
You want to put people into boxes.
Paige DeSorbo
Yes. Like, you want to like, label people immediately in your brain to, like, compartmentalize and, like, organize your own brain. So you, like, want to put girls into boxes and it's like, blonde or brunette? You can't be both. Like, what are you? Very interesting.
Hannah Berner
Very, very interesting.
Paige DeSorbo
Okay, what else have you watched that you loved?
Hannah Berner
This is like one of my hotter takes and I'm gonna say it.
Unknown
Oh, God.
Hannah Berner
Ellen DeGeneres had a great Special.
Paige DeSorbo
Wait, I. On Netflix. I didn't see it. Look, is it funny?
Hannah Berner
Kind of iconic that she got canceled for being a bitch?
Paige DeSorbo
I think she got canceled for a little bit more. But, like.
Hannah Berner
Yeah, but, like, ultimately, it was, like, a lot of people being like, she's horrible to work with. She's.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah, she's, like, rude.
Hannah Berner
So she. She goes on stage and she's like, first of all, it's so easy to not care what people think when you're at the height of your popularity. You're like, I don't care what people think. Yeah, because everyone fucking likes you.
Paige DeSorbo
Right?
Hannah Berner
And then she said something. She was like, I never got into this for the money. I got into this for laughter and bringing people joy and, like, finding myself through humor. But she goes, but then I got canceled, and thank God for the money.
Paige DeSorbo
No, I can't imagine.
Hannah Berner
And then she told this really funny story, which, like, I can kind of relate to how everyone was saying she's, like, the meanest person ever. So she said she'd go to a restaurant, and she could just feel people looking at her, like, waiting for her to do something mean. Like, she'd, like, raise her hand to, like, grab a fork, and they're like, she's gonna hit the waitress. No, she's just grabbing a fork. Like she was. Everyone's just waiting for her to do something, like, fucking mean. Yeah. Because people had this idea, and it's. This is the thing. I'm not excusing anything Ellen did. Like, I think she probably was super cunty, and she even jokes that, like, she thought scaring people all the time was hilarious. And looking back, like, look, comics are fucked up people.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah.
Hannah Berner
But she was like, you know, it's crazy. I didn't know you weren't allowed to be mean in the entertainment industry. And not to go on a feminist rant, but she was like, if you're a male boss, you could literally go into someone's office and be like, talk to me right now. If you're a girl boss, you have to go in and be like, hey, do you have a second? I'd love to speak to you.
Paige DeSorbo
A male boss that I had threw keys at me, and I was just.
Hannah Berner
Like, okay, if a girl did that, you'd, like, arrest her.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah.
Hannah Berner
And it got me thinking. I was hanging out with some, like, industry agent people, and one agent was being so mean to his, like, like, co workers or whatever, and then was, like, talking about an actress who was being a bitch. And I was like, that's crazy. Because when men are mean, like, it's just like, he's tough.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah.
Hannah Berner
We're like. When a girl's mean, they're like, we can't deal with this. And this is coming from someone who I actually. I'm not making an excuse, because if I met her and she was cold to me, I probably would immediately be like, I don't fuck with that girl. Because I think kindness is, like, the easiest thing you could do.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah, it's way easier.
Hannah Berner
I just get upset when I feel like it's people who are big who are trying to make something happen, and you're trying to put your opinions out there, and people are like, oh, she's difficult. I just think disrespect is not okay in any capacity. But if you're just being, like, stern. But Ellen might have gone too far. But I do have to say, look, she's a genius. What she's done for gay rights has been huge. And, yeah, she's fucking imperfect, but you cannot say that her special wasn't hilarious.
Paige DeSorbo
Well, here's another comparison I'll make. Like, no man in the. When we start. When people started canceling people in, like, 2020, no man was canceled for being, like, mean, or the men were getting canceled for, like, pedophilia sexual assault. Like, they were getting canceled for literal felonies that they were committing around the town. So, like, it took so much more for men to get canceled. I'm sure there's a ton of bosses who are men who did the same exact thing. And, like, not to get too specific.
Hannah Berner
But, like, people have tried with you. Like, the buzzword of, like, if a girl calls another girl a mean girl, that's, like, the worst thing you could call her when it's like, people are mean to each other and, like, who's.
Paige DeSorbo
Who's.
Hannah Berner
Are you responding to someone after being mean to you and then you're the mean girl.
Paige DeSorbo
I, like, I feel like I've also gotten over that, too, because, like, I've learned in my personality. Yeah, if you're mean to me, I am going to be 10 times.
Hannah Berner
Well, that's the thing. You're responding like, sorry.
Paige DeSorbo
Like, I will always win at that. But, like, you started it. No, honestly, I feel like with reality TV and with. Honestly, with boyfriends, like, I learned it the most with boyfriends that, like, if a guy ever says anything to me, I will go immediately to your biggest insecurity and I will say it to you. And, like, I know that that is a flaw in my personality. I don't have to go that low. But also, I'm like, you started it. Like, don't fight with me then. Sometimes you have to be mean to literally survive.
Hannah Berner
But I do have to say, I live by it. Don't start anything. Try not to be reactive. And one thing someone told me, which I wish I did during my last season, but I didn't. But I wasn't. It was during COVID It was crazy. But they said, speak to men like your preschool teacher. Keep your voice low, be calm. And you have to speak like, they're literally, like, their brain's not formed.
Paige DeSorbo
That also, like, gets men, I feel, like, even more mad. Like, sometimes, like, when me and Craig will, like, have a fight or something. My natural go to is, like, I raise my voice first. I always, like, am louder and, like, I'm 10 times meaner. But if I switch it up, then, like, I feel like he gets more. He's like, do you not even care? You don't even care. And I'm like, no. I'm just, like, trying not to be reactive. And I'm keeping my voice low. And I'm just like, we're having a conversation. But, like, it does piss them off. And that I. And I love that early on, before.
Hannah Berner
I got too into it, I would. When someone would come for me, I'd be like, what is this actually about? Because I don't think it's about this. That's really what else is going on.
Paige DeSorbo
What's going on at home? Are you okay at home? Something. Something's amiss at home.
Hannah Berner
Because it's true. Most of the time, they are just, like, projecting frustrations on you, and you represent something that they don't.
Paige DeSorbo
Going on at home. Home, honestly, goes on in.
Hannah Berner
No, the home.
Paige DeSorbo
That's why I live alone. That's why just me and dad.
Hannah Berner
And there's still things going on in the home.
Paige DeSorbo
No, it was so funny. When I got to Albany, this was, like, Daphne's first road trip. I got to Albany, and I, like, set up her litter box and, like, set up all, like, her stuff that she needs. Each member of my family walked into my room, and they're like, does Daphne know where her litter box is? And I'm like, I don't know, guys. I told her, but she can't say anything back to me, so I don't know what you want me to. I showed it to her. I said, here's your litter box, But I have no idea if she comprehended it.
Hannah Berner
I'm gonna say one thing that I Don't understand about cats. The only rule is when you bring them home, you just have to. You could put them in it or just literally show it to them. Yeah. And then they just know, like, it's. They're smarter than us.
Paige DeSorbo
No.
Hannah Berner
Like, I get lost in my own house.
Paige DeSorbo
Like, the thought of training a dog. I don't think I could ever do it. I can't go. I can't do it. I'm not. And here's the other thing. I'm not doing it.
Hannah Berner
But this is the thing also, like, people like training dogs. Like, they like being like, I have this crazy animal that I'm gonna. Honestly, I don't need that on my resume.
Paige DeSorbo
Craig told me a story the other day that I forget what town it was in or, like, where in the country it was that foxes are showing signs of wanting to be domesticated. Like, how cats just were, like, and we're domestic now. Like, we're chilling. And that foxes are, like, showing up and, like, doing all these things to be like, we're done.
Hannah Berner
I'll take a fox in. Don't tell me. They're cute.
Paige DeSorbo
So profile, like, I'm on their side to be like, yeah, we're tired now. We've done what we needed to do out here. Like, we're ready to lay by a fire.
Hannah Berner
They're like, put a leash on me. Please put a leash on me and let me sniff dogs.
Paige DeSorbo
But for them becoming domesticated, like, I'm backing them in their fight.
Hannah Berner
Back to my best friend, Alan. Look, everyone needs, like, the meanest. I always loved having, like, a girl who was so fucking mean because, like, you don't have the balls. And, like, if she's on your side, like, you were protected. I like, the scariest girl in school. I wanted her to like me. And then I would just stand by.
Paige DeSorbo
Did you ever have, like, a moment in high school where, like, I feel like, this happened to me one time where, like, I can't even remember, but I can picture the classroom. Someone was coming at me for something, and I was so caught off guard, I was like, oh, my God. Wait, what's going on? And this one girl came from out of nowhere and, like, had my back. And I'll never forget it because I was literally about to be, like, drowning. And, like, from that day on, like, I respected that girl so much. And you're like, if she's around, like, no one's with me. And I liked to be that, too. Like, if someone was with someone, I was like, I'll end you Like, I'll murder you.
Hannah Berner
The only time I was comfortable with confrontation was when, like, there was a clear bullying situation.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah. Like, when you're sticking up for someone.
Hannah Berner
Yeah. And especially when that person. It's like. Like, you're. They're just being mean for no fucking reason. Because, like, some girl, like, has weird hair or something, which we all.
Paige DeSorbo
Probably. Something going on at home.
Hannah Berner
Yeah. But back to Ellen. She has the funniest. So she got canceled when she first came out as gay.
Paige DeSorbo
Right.
Hannah Berner
Like, she couldn't get a job and show business, and then she got the talk show. So she was like, look, first I was canceled for being gay. Then I was canceled for being too mean. And she's like, and in about 15 years, I'm gonna get canceled again for being too old. And, like. Like, she's just be. She's. Look, she's being real. She's being funny. And I do have to tell you guys, a lot of comedians are monsters. And, like, we still find them funny. And, like, she may be a monster, but, like, you have to appreciate her art. Being funny and, like, not hiding and coming out and working and trying to bring joy to people. I'm not saying anything she did is okay, because, honestly, it's my biggest ick when people are mean. Like, I hate it, and it's low and it's stupid, and it's so easy to be nice. Speaking of foxes. Not me. Obsessed with Alan. Stand up. But she's, like, one of the best standups ever. She talks about how, like, butterflies are so amazing, and she lists some other stuff, and she's like, but pigeons, they really fucking gave up. They were like. Pigeons used to communicate during war. Now they can barely fly. Like, a car will come, and they'll be like, please hit me out of my misery. They don't even get out of the way. And I'm like, that's so fucking true. So anyway, that's my.
Paige DeSorbo
I'm gonna say one thing about Ellen. I. No matter what she was canceled for, like, what is go. Whatever. I don't even really remember. I just find it so ad admirable for anyone to have a comeback. I feel like America. America loves a freaking comeback. I love for anyone to be like, you know what? I'm not going in hiding. Like, yes, I did this, this. Yes, I did that. No, I didn't do this. Like, this was fabricated. Whatever. I love someone being just, like, standing there and, like, taking it and coming back. You know, I just think that's great. I could never.
Hannah Berner
She had another Joke where she said that she. Her therapist, like, couldn't really understand what she was going through because Ellen was like, I feel like everyone hates me. And the therapist was like, why do you feel that way? And she was like, I don't know. The New York Times and, like, the Washington Post and the Daily Mail. And they were like, okay. And then she's like, well, can you stop looking at the news? And she's like, I actually don't look at the news. But every couple days, a friend will just text me and be like, hey, thinking of you. Hope you're doing okay. And that shit was so relatable.
Paige DeSorbo
That's so real. There's nothing like unfollowing every Bravo account to just have a random group chat of friends. Be like, hey, is everything okay? We love you.
Hannah Berner
It's like, we love you no matter what. Yeah.
Paige DeSorbo
Okay. See it? So let me just go.
Hannah Berner
I do have to say to the friends, like, never text someone a bad article about them. Like, I'll.
Paige DeSorbo
I'll end it. Don't ever text me a bad article about myself. How dare you.
Hannah Berner
I will wait for you to bring it up. I will never.
Paige DeSorbo
I mean, I'm never bringing it up. Text me a bad article about someone else. Like, be a girl's girl.
Hannah Berner
Oh, my. No, literally. So Ellen had some very funny points, but I also think, like, she's an older gay woman, and it's hard. Like, society doesn't stereotypically in comedy.
Paige DeSorbo
Right.
Hannah Berner
Society doesn't love it, but I think that she has. She's been through a lot in her life, and who knows?
Paige DeSorbo
Did you watch Will and Harper?
Hannah Berner
I watched the beginning of it. It made me so emotional. And I also, like, love Will Ferrell as someone who has met him once. Yeah, he's an absolute angel. I know. The gays hate him. I'm obsessed with this man when he was trying to make the kids laugh in the diner.
Paige DeSorbo
No, he's. I think he's so hilarious.
Hannah Berner
He's the. He's the funniest ever.
Paige DeSorbo
You know, this is the first time I saw him on screen, and I felt like, oh, my God. I felt like my parents, because I was like, oh, my God, Will Ferrell. Like, this is the first time he looked old to me.
Hannah Berner
Well, he also. When have you seen him be normal?
Paige DeSorbo
Right. Like, you never see the character. Yeah. And he just felt very like, dad. Like a dad. Like, he just felt like a dad that, like, your friend's dad was, like, making a documentary.
Hannah Berner
He's the dad that, like. Like, he shows up when everyone's hanging out and you're like, oh, wait, this is gonna be so funny. Yeah. Yeah, I love him. And I also, I think was so good for, like, trans visibility in terms of, like, humor connects people. Because Harper, after she transitioned from being a comedy writer, like, she's like, I'm still hilarious. So she's shitting on it, right?
Paige DeSorbo
Because they were talking about, like, are we. Is this a whole new friend? Like, is this still my same friend? Like, what's our friendship gonna be like? And it's like, well, you still think the same things are funny and stupid. Like, so you can still connect.
Hannah Berner
Did you see at the dinner table? She had all these SNL alums and she was like, everyone was really nice except for Tim. Tim sent me some, like, hate mail. And this guy Tim, the guy from Mean Girls, was like, I thought. I thought she was messing with me. So I sent some sexist, racist remarks back. I thought it was a bit. And it's so funny.
Paige DeSorbo

No, it just, like, it. It just. Here's the other thing. I feel like it's giving mediocre men the audacity.
Hannah Berner
It's giving. He's going to hurt her more than anything, like, famous guy she's ever dated. Heard her. Because she's like, this was a Make a wish.
Paige DeSorbo
Well, I also. He was, like, engaged, like, for 10 years, like, to his last girlfriend. And then randomly was just like, oh.
Hannah Berner
So he's a fuckboy.
Paige DeSorbo
So it was just like, Lana Del Rey was interested. It's the same thing with, like, Ariana Grande just, like, breaking up that random marriage.
Hannah Berner
Now Dalton is, like, the guy she divorced who was a random dude is now dating, like, a really pretty model. And it's like. It's. You're right. Like, keep them where they're at.
Paige DeSorbo
Keep them where they're at and where they belong, because there's nothing worse than giving, like, a dude you didn't even want to give a shot. Who was so beneath you then, thinking he's on your level.
Hannah Berner
I always have to say the worst. The most heartbroken I've ever been was in college with this guy after I dated the football player who. I was like, this guy will kiss my feet. And then, like, he got a whiff of himself that summer and was like. I literally was like, he's going to beg me to be his girlfriend. And he thought he was the coolest guy on campus. Not that, like, I don't know. He just, like, was feeling himself and I. And wasn't giving me the time of day. And I was like, I'm sorry.
Paige DeSorbo
No one will break your heart like a real loser.
Hannah Berner
Their name's always like, matt.
Paige DeSorbo
Well.
Hannah Berner
And it hurts your ego so much more. Maybe that's why I was.
Paige DeSorbo
That's what it is.
Hannah Berner
I was so shallow for hot men after that because I was like, if I'm gonna get my heart broken, they better be out of my league.
Paige DeSorbo
Well, because it's like, if this loser doesn't want me, what does that say about me? And that's the mental. That's the mental capacity you go into and it's. It's quite jarring.
Hannah Berner
So I do have to say never like, go low because they'll go high. I don't know what that meant, but it may sense.
Paige DeSorbo
No. Dating beneath you is, like, fun for a minute and then it's like, I feel like you can't.
Hannah Berner
This. This whole time we've been trying not to talk about it, but I feel like we should bring it up. Up. Let's talk about the freak offs.
Paige DeSorbo
Oh, my God. I didn't think that's where you were going to go. I. I'm. I'm just going to be honest. I'm on the side of TikTok where Beyonce is a murderer and I don't know what's going on.
Hannah Berner
I'm so. Yeah. I'm so confused. I'm at the part, tick tock. Where they're saying, like, Kanye was trying to save Taylor Swift by not having her compete with Beyonce. Yeah.
Paige DeSorbo
Because she was going to get murdered.
Hannah Berner
I'm. But I like, can't believe any of it.
Paige DeSorbo
No, I think that's like taking it to like a little bit of an extreme.
Hannah Berner
Like, Adele broke her Grammy off and was giving it to Beyon because she was scared.
Paige DeSorbo
Like, I think she's just a nice person.
Hannah Berner
Let's focus at the problem at hand. Okay. With the freak offs, there's a lot of Justin Bieber drama. But long story short, then people are saying that he would do these freak offs and film them so he could like, blackmail.
Paige DeSorbo
I need you to stop saying freak off.
Hannah Berner
I can't stop saying freak offs. I've been saying it every. I can't. Why couldn't they pick a better name than freak off?
Paige DeSorbo
Why sounds like named.
Hannah Berner
That sounds like. Like when you're throwing a birthday party when you're like 19, you're like, it's for the breakout. Yeah.
Paige DeSorbo
It's like tonight some stupid theme. It's like, call it a sex party.
Hannah Berner
Like, it sounds like a bunch of, like, adults were trying to throw a cool party for K, for like a brand. And they're like, it's gonna be freak off. Kick ass.
Paige DeSorbo
And like, no, no. I think that P. Diddy, whatever his name is. Diddy, who cares? I think he should rot in jail for the rest of his life. And if someone killed him, like, I wouldn't bat an eye.
Hannah Berner
It's just upsetting that this was. Whatever was happening happened for so fucking long and now they're looking back that, like, he might have been involved with Tupac and, like. But they're saying that he was, like, blackmailing everyone. Like, hey, I have you doing this. Don't ever fucking turn on me. Wait, so he had everyone. Silent violence.
Paige DeSorbo
What about. This is, like, so off topic. What about Sabrina Carpenter saying on at her concert that she's the reason that our mayor got indicted? I.
Hannah Berner
Did she say why?
Paige DeSorbo
She said because she filmed her music video at a church and it, like, wasn't supposed to be allowed or something, and they looked into the person that, like, allowed it, and he had some, like, shady going on with the May. Some, like, random weird story, but it all had to do with. Because she filmed.
Hannah Berner
It all goes back to.
Paige DeSorbo
A woman in the arts, just not knowing that she was. What she was doing for the good of the city.
Hannah Berner
People went to her show last night. She had. @ msg.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah.
Hannah Berner
I do have to say, concerts are hard for me.
Paige DeSorbo
No, thank you so much for saying that, because I did get an email inviting me to the Sabrina Carpenter concert, and I was like, wow, so many girls would kill for this. And this is so nice that they're inviting me to do this. My cortisol is not regulated enough to be at a concert setting. I'm just not a concert girly. You know what? I'm not. I'm not an inside concert girly. I like a amphitheater. I like something.
Hannah Berner
Because you could leave because you. You could, like, wander off.
Paige DeSorbo
It's weird.
Hannah Berner
To a tree.
Paige DeSorbo
I think that's what it is.
Hannah Berner
Oh. Oh, a car. What if I just got into this car?
Paige DeSorbo
Yes. What if I just got into it?
Hannah Berner
And you're also like, oh, I'm getting vitamin D. Like, this is like, my walk. Yeah.
Paige DeSorbo
I like an amphitheater.
Hannah Berner
I. Yeah. I don't like crowds. I don't like girls singing. I think it's PTSD from being on the bus. And some girls would start singing a song and I would just get really awkward. And I feel like the second I start singing, everyone would laugh at me. I don't know.
Paige DeSorbo
It's for as much as we are performers and we truly, truly are. We're, like, always running a bit. Always, like, performing for someone. We aren't singing, dancing type. Like, I'm not a dancer. Like, it's actually probably, like, a bad quality. But, like, at a wedding, I'm not the most fun person at the table. I'm not like a let's get up and go to the dance floor at a wedding type of person.
Hannah Berner
Can we discuss us? I hate going to Weddings. Not because, like, the social.
Paige DeSorbo
The social everything is a wedding is. I really. It makes me really uncomfortable.
Hannah Berner
You're having these awkward table conversations with people you don't really know. Then you have to awkwardly dance with people you don't know while older people are just watching you dance to swag. Surfing.
Paige DeSorbo
Weddings are truly only fun if it's your sibling.
Hannah Berner
Yeah.
Paige DeSorbo
Your best friend.
Hannah Berner
Yeah.
Paige DeSorbo
Or you.
Hannah Berner
And all of those have caveats.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah. And that's literally it. Because you don't really get to hang out with your best friend at all, like, during that day. But you're happy that, like, she's experiencing this. Your sibling. It's fun because it's like, your family's there, but you're also like you. Everyone has, like, that weird cousin and uncle and like, whatever. Like, whatever you don't want to talk to. And then you, like. Yeah. Because it's all about you. But it's also, like, probably the most stressful.
Hannah Berner
I've also been on the outskirts before where you know that, like, you weren't the first people invited. And then they'll be like, oh, my God, there's a seat, an extra seat. I can't get you to my wedding. And you're like, are you trying to fuck up? I, like, do you? Like, I know that, like, if I go there, I'm gonna have to be at my best and, like, perform and, like, be great. But, like, I don't have it in me all the time. And it's such a weird mix of people sometimes. Oh, God. And then you have to watch people cry.
Paige DeSorbo
See, like, I almost rather be a plus one because I feel like there's no pressure. Cause it's like, I don't know anyone here, so I'm not obligated to talk to any of you. And I can take as long as I want in the bathroom. Cause no one's looking for me.
Hannah Berner
Like, dancing with uncles, that should be illegal.
Paige DeSorbo
It's not for me. I really. Actually Craig gets mad at me at weddings because I'm like, I can't. I'm not like, that. Just, like, whimsical type, actually.
Hannah Berner
It's so funny. I just got a memory. My dad, we were at a wedding, and my mom was on the dance floor. And my mom's, like, cute and, like, good at dancing. And my dad looks at me and he goes, see how mom dances? She's loose, she's relaxed. Try to learn from her. And I was like, wait, what?
Paige DeSorbo
No. My brother is like.
Hannah Berner
He's so stiff when you go on.
Paige DeSorbo
I'm like, the worst dancer too. Like, I'm not. I can't. I just can't do. It's not for me.
Hannah Berner
Wait. I'm about to blow your mind. Speaking of stiffness, people are saying that women are getting too much Botox and filler, that babies are having trouble learning expressions because their moms are not showing them the full spectrum of emotions.
Paige DeSorbo
Stop.
Hannah Berner
That could be totally false. But when I saw it on TikTok, I was like, that's fucking hilarious. Just a bunch of serial killer babies being made who, like, can't react to things.
Paige DeSorbo
Me and Hannah have had quite extensive talks on tour recently that we're gonna skip Botox and filler. We're just gonna skip that phase. And when we turn 60, maybe 55, maybe even 50.
Hannah Berner
It depends how.
Paige DeSorbo
It depends on how we're going. We're just gonna pop out one day having facelifts. Like, we're. We're gonna go big or we're going home. We're not going in for a couple little needles here and there. If we're going under the knife, they're pulling our whole faces off and they're redoing them.
Hannah Berner
So spending a couple days in la, the word on the street is that the girls, some of your favorite pop stars, have undergone like two, three facelifts. No, Paige, I'm telling you, these girls who look insane, you're like, what? They have done facelifts.
Paige DeSorbo
Like, the normal population, we're getting fed. Like, oh, it's preventative Botox. The elite, they're getting fed. It's a preventative facelift. Like, it's a mini facelift.
Hannah Berner
Girls in your early 20s, stop getting preventative Botox. Yeah, Your skin is going to age regardless. It's like, so unnecessary. Also, your babies don't know how to. Don't know if you're sad or happy, if you're crying or laughing. Okay.
Paige DeSorbo
I really don't subscribe to preventative Botox. I think that's such a scam by like.
Hannah Berner
And now I'm terrified of. Filter of filler. Filter a filler. Because it's migrating.
Paige DeSorbo
And here's the thing, and this is, like, really selfish. And this is for the millennials. This is for the millennials right here.
Hannah Berner
Okay?
Paige DeSorbo
Part of me is like, haha, like, Gen Z looks old. Like, I like, I kind of like it. I'm like, it makes me feel better about aging because I'm like, oh, my God, I'm 10 years older than you and I look younger than you. So like, I feel Fine, Fine.
Hannah Berner
It's also, like, not their fault though, because we. It wasn't a trend when we were growing up. Like, we would have fallen to it too, maybe.
Paige DeSorbo
No, like, I didn't. I had a couple girlfriends, I think, who started to get Botox when we were in college. But, like, it was very. It was not. Definitely was not talked about the way it was talked about now. And it was random. Yeah, it was rogue. I feel like girls really didn't start getting it. It until I was like 26. And I. And then I was still like, I was like, guys, we don't need it.
Hannah Berner
Have you seen the Cardi B drama.
Paige DeSorbo
With her and Offset?
Hannah Berner
Yeah.
Paige DeSorbo
And her just like publishing all the receipts of everything.
Hannah Berner
Yeah. All I got from it, because I was watching it on mute, was that.
Paige DeSorbo
That's really good way to learn.
Hannah Berner
You guys, this is hard hitting journalism. And let me preface this with, please, please, please. I know you can go viral, but, like, do not blast your personal lives on the Internet. Like, just don't. Don't call people out.
Paige DeSorbo
Like, just keep it to yourself.
Hannah Berner
I'm telling you, just don't do it. Cardi B, you know, she's doing her own thing and I'm her number one fan. But basically this man's been cheating and disrespecting her for so long. So she goes and basically says his friend who was part of his. I was gonna say band group takeoff, who passed away. She goes, so funny. You've been cheating on me this whole time because. Because I hooked up with Takeoff. Period.
Paige DeSorbo
Oh, my God. You can't.
Unknown
Oh, here's the other thing.
Paige DeSorbo
You can't bring the debt into it. You just can't do it.
Hannah Berner
But you know the way I feel.
Paige DeSorbo
About air, like, posting a receipt and calling someone out on social media is the same way I feel about people crying on social media. Neither are for me. And you keep it inside. You keep all of it inside because one day you'll need it for something greater. Mm.
Hannah Berner
Mm. And I do have to say there's something like, imma say it. I have fucking receipts of shit.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah.
Hannah Berner
I have receipts of people who have lied.
Paige DeSorbo
I feel like I have your receipts saved in a file. You have my receipts as well? I have other people's receipts. I don't even know how I've accumulated them. They're like, hold on to this in case I need it.
Hannah Berner
I feel like once you release it into the wild, it better be the right time, because then you've lost your power.
Paige DeSorbo
It's no longer your Receipt. It belongs to the people.
Hannah Berner
It belongs to the people. And also, it's like it's out there, and they know what your hand is. I'm keeping my receipt for when I need to.
Paige DeSorbo
Hannah's very into blackmail.
Hannah Berner
No, These people don't even know that I. The receipts that I have because I didn't show them.
Paige DeSorbo
Well, that's the best thing about a receipt. You don't know what I'm packing. You don't know what I'm packing.
Hannah Berner
Actually, I did try to show receipts at one reunion, and Andy was like, I don't care. He was like that.
Paige DeSorbo
It's.
Hannah Berner
That here's.
Paige DeSorbo
Here's where it's good for me. My mental health. My anxiety kicks in that I can't look back at the receipt, so I don't even know what I have. I'm like. That, like, induces too much.
Hannah Berner
No. Well, that's what happened. I didn't look back at stuff because I was so upset. And then once everything settled down, I was like, this voicemail is insane.
Paige DeSorbo
Yeah.
Hannah Berner
And everyone was like, it's seven months too late. No one cares anymore. Someday, final drama to upset all the millennials. And the Gen Z's are gonna be like, shut up. We don't care. Tia and Tamara don't talk.
Paige DeSorbo
I really don't like it. 1. I don't like it because I don't like when siblings don't talk. I just find that to be. I don't like it. And I especially don't like it because they're twins, which means they're feeling things, and they're not saying legal. That's.
Hannah Berner
That's illegal to not talk to your twin.
Paige DeSorbo
I feel like it really is.
Hannah Berner
They're sending psychopathic stuff to each other. I don't know that was the right word. It's basically like. Yeah, it's not okay.
Paige DeSorbo
No, it's not okay.
Hannah Berner
And it's hippa. It's a HIPAA violation to not talk to your twin.
Paige DeSorbo
And I think if this is all over, like, one of their husbands, I'm gonna be really mad.
Hannah Berner
Yeah, that's gonna piss me off.
Paige DeSorbo
So they need a. Like, a resurgence. I need something good to happen for both of them, and I need someone to come together, like, bring them back together.
Hannah Berner
Maybe they should do a reunion with Andy Cohen.
Paige DeSorbo
I mean, they should do something.
Hannah Berner
They should do something. But we're rooting for you guys. Family's important. Family is everything. Family's important. Anyway, speaking of family, we love you.
Paige DeSorbo
Giggles so much before we go, because this was Too good. Nana posted your New York Times article before she posted a picture of herself doing, like, just something normal. And I could not stop laughing and I could not stop looking at it because I was like, I'm obsessed with Nana.
Hannah Berner
So Nana posted a photo showing her decolletage sitting in her living room that my papa took. And the second photo was like, new York Times. And she was like, just a beautiful morning. Also, side note, my. My granddaughters in the New York Times Times. But I look beautiful as always. If, in case you were wondering, it was just.
Paige DeSorbo
It made my whole freaking day. I commented. I was like, nana, this is just so you. Last thing I want to say is my last episode of In Bed with Paige Desorbo is on on Tuesday night. So tonight, who chooses the order?
Hannah Berner
Amazon, I think did, because mine went out real quick. Because they were. Is it because they were excited or they just didn't want to end with me?
Paige DeSorbo
I think they were excited about you. They just want to put it out there, there.
Hannah Berner
Who's the last one?
Paige DeSorbo
Andrea Lopez.
Hannah Berner
Oh, I love Andre.
Paige DeSorbo
It's so good. She does. She does this episode as a bunch of different people. And.
Hannah Berner
Okay, yeah, she went above and beyond.
Paige DeSorbo
She literally did a whole SNL sketch.
Hannah Berner
She deserves it. By the way, we still have some tickets available in these cities, so if you live in them, run Atlantic City, Newark, Madison. Go Badgers, Milwaukee, Texas, and Cleveland.
Paige DeSorbo
Okay.
Hannah Berner
We love you guys so much. Thanks for giggling. Talk to you next week.
Paige DeSorbo
Bye.
