[Paige]

Summer smells like salt in the air and warm sand. Restore your sense of place with Pura's new summer fragrance collection. Discover transportive clean [e-mail]. Sup, gigglers? Gary, fix your WI fi.

[Hannah]

Manifest that shit. We can't be managed. It was fun.

[Paige]

I mean, the day just got away from me.

[Hannah]

Hello, my grimacing gigglers.

[Paige]

Okay, what does that mean?

[Hannah]

Grimace. Is. Is this okay? That's me smiling. It's a grimace.

[Paige]

Yeah. Okay.

[Hannah]

We've started a movement. It's Soft Smile Summer. The girls aren't smiling to people. Please. We're just being ourselves. And if you don't smile, people still love you. I don't know. I just made that up. How are you?

[Paige]

I haven't smiled once in solidarity.

[Hannah]

That's a lie, because you've posted two two TikToks smiling at the end, and it was giving. You don't care about your best friend. I was like, oh, okay, Just attack me to my face.

[Paige]

I have been thinking about you a lot.

[Hannah]

No. You know what I'm going through. And you decided to smile in two out of two outfit talks crazy. And people noticed.

[Paige]

The other night, I FaceTimed Hannah, and it was actually so sad because she goes, I haven't been able to give my real smile all day because I don't want to scare people. And now that I get to laugh with you on FaceTime, it's so freeing.

[Hannah]

No, you guys, I'm at my job.

[Paige]

Yeah.

[Hannah]

And the good news is it's going well because I'm, like, leaning into being serious, but I can't smile because it makes me look like I'm crying, and it freaks people out, so I, like, have to hold it in until I get back to my hotel room, and I'm just like,

[Paige]

You know what? I'm actually really proud of us, though, because I feel like whenever we go through something. Also, I've been my brains out here.

[Hannah]

Yeah. I don't want to bring it up.

[Paige]

We make it acceptable for the girls to, like, just be themselves.

[Hannah]

Well, it's so cool that we say something that's, like, so depressing and sad. And then all the gigglers are like, I feel less alone. This happened to me. Or this. This isn't happening to me. But I at least can laugh at you. Like, the fact that I'm some people. Literally, like, I was in the darkest depression, and then I watched the YouTube of you trying to smile, and it brought me out of it, and I'm like, it was worth it.

[Paige]

It was worth it.

[Hannah]

It was Worth it. Stabbed me a million times. But my feed now. Every nurse, doctor, practitioner is now, like, doing videos about what happened to me

[Paige]

trying to help you.

[Hannah]

Which is kind of great because I'm getting all this, like, free advice, but all the advice is like, you fucked.

[Paige]

Yeah. You have a couple months.

[Hannah]

And some of them are like, this was extremely rare. How did this happen to both Paige and Hannah?

[Paige]

No.

[Hannah]

Within a couple months.

[Paige]

How? Our ops are working overtime.

[Hannah]

But also, I feel like nurses are nervous because they're like, hey, guys, Botox, like, isn't as horrible as Paige and Hannah making it seem. They just have really bad luck. And I'm like, okay, well, the math

[Paige]

isn't mouthing the statistics that me and my best friend in the course of three months had a Botox mishap.

[Hannah]

This was the third time I did masseter. So I'm one for three. You're one of two?

[Paige]

Yeah, you're one for one of two. One of two.

[Hannah]

One of two. Okay, so that's two out of two. Two out of five. That's almost half.

[Paige]

You've lost me. Sorry. I've actually tapped out 40%.

[Hannah]

Wait, by the way.

[Paige]

Percent.

[Hannah]

Being in Toronto, I forgot to tell you. I got to my flight early, and then I looked at when the flight was boarding, and it said 2010. And in that moment, I was like, I'm not going to make it because, like, this I can. It's a. Once you're in the 20s, like, I feel like 13. I could do the math. But once you're in the 20s, that's like, I've. You've lost me.

[Paige]

It's the next day. At that point, it's the next day.

[Hannah]

And then I realized the reason me and you podcasting when you're in Italy, totally fun, totally easy. The hard part is we can't do math. So I'll be like, paige, I'm free at 4pm and she's like, don't know when that is.

[Paige]

I'm like, cool, cool. Somebody tried to schedule a zoom with me. And Josephine was like, hey. Like, they want to do it. And I go, okay, if they're in California, we're fucked. I was like, you tell them, pick a time, and I'll see if I'll be there.

[Hannah]

If I have to carry a one to get to that time, we're not doing it. So, yeah, now we're just like, hey, are you free in the next 20 minutes? And if we're not, then we just wait. We haven't set one time. Also, I was running on the treadmill. Do you remember I was bragging to you how fast I was running? Uh huh.

[Paige]

Cause you're a fast twitch muscle.

[Hannah]

Turns out I wasn't running miles per hour, I was running kilometers per hour per hour.

[Paige]

Okay, well I stepped on the scale here and it's in kilograms. And I go, yeah, I like that number. You know what, I'm not even going to convert that because that seems nice.

[Hannah]

No, I thought I was like an Olympian. I go, wow, I jogged once and I'm running at nine for seven minutes. I actually was like. So I was like, holy shit, I'm a. I was Kendall Jenner. I was like, I'm athletic, so genetically athletic. But babe, sauna life, it's been a lot.

[Paige]

I love a sauna. How many minutes are you going in for?

[Hannah]

Well, this is the thing. There's a sauna at my hotel, but it's not like a full person sauna. It's like two people. I mean, it's two people. Like, it's not like a big sauna. So I get, I keep having these sauna interactions, which I didn't know was legal, but the first one, sit down, a man comes in and I'm like, should I call the police? Like, is that, Are you. I'm in the sauna. Like, why would you come in my sauna? Turns to me, goes, hey, really liked your special.

[Paige]

Another man, he must have been on

[Hannah]

in the background of his girlfriend, like, living room.

[Paige]

How are they finding us?

[Hannah]

Okay, that's not right. Or cool. Then the next day, I'm in the sauna watching Wimbledon and these two are gossiping, gossiping. They turn to me, they go, sorry, what time is it? I look up, I'm like, I don't, I can't read. Military time, I don't know. And 37, 42, who the fuck knows? And the guy was a gaygler. He turns to me, goes, oh, Hannah Burner.

[Paige]

Oh my God.

[Hannah]

So I'm two for two. Starts asking me about all the tea going on. And I said, look, what happens in the sauna stays in the sauna. So I'm gossiping. Yeah, they get out sauna. Yesterday, there was a girl in like, it's by the pool wearing a full thong in the sauna. Like, I guess bathing suits are like that now. I go in, there's a huge like butt mark from her sitting in the sauna with like a beach.

[Paige]

That's disgusting.

[Hannah]

No, I was like, I'm kind of sauna culture, I don't understand yet. It's freaking Me out.

[Paige]

I got into a fight in the sauna. In a sauna one time.

[Hannah]

What happened?

[Paige]

Okay, I go into this. I'm in a building. I'm in, like, an apartment building. It's a communal sauna. It's. But girl. It's in, like, a girl's locker room, so it's just women, but it's like a pretty big sauna. Like, it's two rows. If you really wanted to pack 10 people in there, you could. I work out in the gym. And then I go into the locker room, and I go in the sauna, and I'm in my workout clothes, and I kept my sneakers on, okay? And I'm sitting there. My feet are on the ground. This woman comes in, and she's wearing. She's also in, like, workout clothes, like, regular clothes, but no shoes. And she says to me, you know, it's really rude to come in with your sneakers on. People lay their heads down, like, lay on these benches. And I turn to her and I go, well, that's disgusting, because this is a communal sauna, and why would someone be laying their sweaty body down? So I kept my sneakers on and

[Hannah]

was like, that's where me and you are different. I would have been like, I am so sorry. This is your culture. I don't understand your culture. I'm taking off my shoes. I love. And then you sat there and looked at her the whole time.

[Paige]

I was this close to being like, and who the fuck are you to tell me what I'm gonna do in the goddamn sauna? I go, well, that's disgusting. You shouldn't lay down in it.

[Hannah]

The sauna is full of people's sweat.

[Paige]

She was trying to tell me I was in, like, a health code violation. I was like, no, no, lady, I think you with your bare ass feet. I also said, I go, well, I would be nervous to not have socks and shoes on because that's how foot fungus sp spreads. So hop off my dick, lady.

[Hannah]

I love all the women around you being like, valid points are being made, and I suddenly don't want to be here anymore. No. I feel like that's where Covet started.

[Paige]

I'm like. I took this relaxing experience and just.

[Hannah]

Well, being in a small, hot space with strangers is my nightmare. And my nightmare. I've had three bad experiences. No, no. The second was fun because we gossiped, but, like, I was. I just want to watch Wimbledon.

[Paige]

You're in a different place than you typically are. And I would say that, like, when people. When you're in a Random situation, and someone does want to talk to you. You're very happy and jolly, and you do want to engage, but you're going through a time right now.

[Hannah]

No, I know.

[Paige]

Because you can't talk. That's your favorite thing to do is talk.

[Hannah]

No, I know. And I do have to say the one thing that's getting me through this. And if we're being so real with each other.

[Paige]

Yeah, let's.

[Hannah]

I'm getting so much attention. Like, if I wasn't getting attention, you guys, I would be, like, in a really, really bad place. But I go to sleep at night and I go, at least people are talking about me.

[Paige]

At least people care enough.

[Hannah]

And it's actually crazy because when it first started happening, I was on TikTok and I found, like, two or three girls that it happened to. And all these girlies are now posting being like, hey, you guys, remember when this happened to me? It's happening. I had a burner, and the girl was so funny. She's like, hannah burner. We got another diva down. She didn't look at my. So we're kind of all bonding. Even Meredith Wishbone Kitchen. She said it happened to her. Meghan Trainor said it happened to her. And it's. It. Divas are going down.

[Paige]

People just not saying when it happens because they're embarrassed. Because when it happened to me, I literally was. No, I. I'm. I would tell everyone that would listen. I'd be like, I know you don't know me, so you don't know what my actual smile looks like. But look at this, because this ain't it. Like, I wanted to tell everyone, so I don't get it. Like, are the girls. Don't be embarrassed.

[Hannah]

But the gigglers, yeah, they're getting me through it by laughing. And, like, people are telling me, like, just that it's. It made them happy. And that makes, like, it really, like, for a month of sadness is cured for sure. Where I would have been really sad. So yesterday we tried to record you. You were going through it. Are you okay?

[Paige]

You know, this is my karma for laughing in my tiktoks while my friend can't move her face. Because we truly have switched positions. I was.

[Hannah]

And you know what?

[Paige]

This is my own fault because I came onto the trip and I said, I'm gonna eat a. A ton on this trip.

[Hannah]

You were determined.

[Paige]

I was determined. And it takes me a couple days to, like, acclimate to anywhere. Like, I can't. And sometimes people will have this problem where, like, they can't go to the bathroom on vacation. I get the opposite where I'm like. It's running through me to the point that last night we were at dinner, and I said. I looked at the table and I go, guys, I've had a lovely time, but. But if I don't run back to the room, I will, in fact, shit myself here at the table. So it's been lovely, but I must. I must jet.

[Hannah]

So I literally record after dinner. So I'm like, hey, babe, haven't heard from you. And she's like, I literally physically can't get off the toilet right now.

[Paige]

Here's the worst part. I run back to my room. My room and my brother's room. We have, like, adjoining door.

[Hannah]

Adorable.

[Paige]

In Europe, you take. You have to put your car. Your key card in, like, the slot from, like, right when you walk in the door for, like, the electricity. Okay.

[Hannah]

Yeah.

[Paige]

I run back to the room. They're doing turndown service in my room.

[Hannah]

Oh, no.

[Paige]

I'm like.

[Hannah]

I'm like, it's okay.

[Paige]

Like. And they're like, oh, well. Like, I'm like. Like, no one speaks English. I'm like, ah. Then, like, I. I go into my brother's room, pitch black. I don't have his key card, obviously, so I'm sitting on the toilet shitting pure black. Just pitch black. And honestly, let me tell you, Were

[Hannah]

you sure you found the toilet?

[Paige]

I had to use my flashlight on my phone.

[Hannah]

Okay, wait, so you sat there in darkness, just relieving yourself? Imagine if your brother walked in.

[Paige]

Well, then he came in later, and he was like, are you fucking kidding me? And actually, when we first got to the hotel, I went in and went into a hotel room, and I, like, really had to go to the bathroom. So I go into the hotel room, I go to the bathroom, and then I come out, and I'm like, I actually want the other room. Like, I don't want this room. I want the one my brother's in. So I go, let's switch.

[Hannah]

So Regina George.

[Paige]

I go, let's switch rooms. And he's like, okay. And so we switch rooms. And then he goes, did you take

[Hannah]

a shit in here?

[Paige]

It was like the most brother, sister thing. And I was just like, yeah, I did.

[Hannah]

What are you gonna do about it?

[Paige]

Tell mom? It was. Yeah, I. Literally. Going on vacation with your siblings is, like, reverting back to childhood. Like, everyone reverts back to their position in the family.

[Hannah]

I feel like the only person that finds my mouth funnier than you is your dad is my brother. No, my parents are. Are like, being actually really like, are you okay? My brother, he can't even look at me without crying hysterically. He thinks it's the funniest thing. But my dad, by the way, I always have a nervous stomach, too. And I'm known. I like to. When I get to a restaurant, I go to the bathroom. Not just to go to the bathroom, but to, like, see the ambiance. Like, yeah, I need to know the full restaurant. And the bathroom is a huge experience. So whenever I'm at a restaurant, I go, I have to go to the bathroom. I like to take between appetizer and main. I like to just clean it out.

[Paige]

Go relieve yourself. Yeah.

[Hannah]

And my dad always goes, you got to go to the bathroom. That's a surprise. That's a surprise. That's like, his favorite thing that. Oh, Hannah's going to the bathroom. That's a surprise.

[Paige]

Have you ever tried to go non dairy for, like, longer than three minutes?

[Hannah]

Yeah, I've done it for, like, a meal, and then the next meal, I forgot.

[Paige]

That's my thing, too. Whenever I'm like, I'm on a diet, I literally forget.

[Hannah]

You have to remember.

[Paige]

And they go, yeah.

[Hannah]

I'm also like, is there dairy and scallion cream cheese? Like, yeah.

[Paige]

I'm like, okay, well, we're like, okay, well, I planned on having a bagel, so no. One thing I do want to point out that's very different from European hotels to American hotels. Why is there already a fork and knife in my hotel room when I

[Hannah]

have not ordered anything amazing.

[Paige]

In case I happen upon a meal? They're like, don't worry. We got you. Like, you don't have to. We're like, if you're at an any hotel in America, you have.

[Hannah]

You can't find a fork.

[Paige]

Yeah. I'm like, hey, could you send up a fork? And they're like, whoa.

[Hannah]

Eight years later, they're like, we gotta turn this place upside down.

[Paige]

We're in Italy. They're like, what if you come home and you have a little snack?

[Hannah]

What would you do? And there's also little butter knives. There's little butter knives, right?

[Paige]

Which is what happened last night when I came back to the room to go to the bathroom. Then my family came back and they brought me my leftover ravioli, and so then I ate it. Then.

[Hannah]

What I love about us and our families, too, is we're so main character energy. Like, whether it's bad or good, it's gonna be about us. Like, it is the Paige and Hannah show nonstop.

[Paige]

My dad literally goes, why are you so tired? I go because I have to perform every night at 8pm what would we do at dinner if I wasn't performing? Like I'm exhausted. I'm doing two weeks of shows I've been writing. I'm like, you think that the, the, the running joke for the whole trip is going to stay alive if I don't keep it alive?

[Hannah]

Oh, I have a question.

[Paige]

Yeah?

[Hannah]

So at my hotel, I'm here for three weeks, I realize I have to do laundry at the hotel. I've never done this. Have you done this before?

[Paige]

Honey, you know I love an amenity at a hotel. You want to know what I did this year?

[Hannah]

What?

[Paige]

I checked in. They bring our bags up. I called down. I go, hey, any chance you guys have an unpacking service? They go, Mr. Sorbo, of course. I go, amazing. I'm gonna go to the pool. And they're like, great, we'll send someone up. I get changed, I go to the pool. I have my day. I come back up, all my clothes hanging. Amazing. Lovely. Do yourself a favor. Ask for that next time you're out of pool.

[Hannah]

This is the problem. I don't like calling people. Second of all. So there's a laundry bag. It says laundry. So I'm like, okay, I could do this, but then it has a slip.

[Paige]

I've already done two loads here. Wait. That crazy laundry.

[Hannah]

I'm Paige. I have a huge thing of laundry I have to go through and tell them how many of each thing.

[Paige]

Well, you waited too long. You got to do it. You got to do it, like, once a week.

[Hannah]

I'll do it after the pod, okay?

[Paige]

Yeah, but it's gonna feel so good. No, that's, like, one of the only slips I like filling out.

[Hannah]

Like, I wasn't anticipating being in the sauna every day, so I only brought four T shirts.

[Paige]

No, you're busy. I want to say something about Love Island.

[Hannah]

Let it out.

[Paige]

I'm fully caught up on us. I said I wasn't gonna do this, but here we are, and I'm fully caught up because I can't be out of the loop of anything. And you know what I'm like, you guys aren't even real Love island fans. So, like, if anyone's gonna be in the combo, I'm gonna be in the goddamn. Is this a kid? Kidding.

[Hannah]

That's the ruining bug I've ever seen.

[Paige]

The bugs here are big. Like, they're meaty. Like they fly. I was watching, like, one of the most recent episodes, and it's so interesting watching, like, obviously watching reality tv and especially, like, a game show type reality tv where they're in, like, this incubus where it's only what they're dealing with. So there's this girl, her name is Anaya. She was coupled up with this guy. His name is Casey. They go to Casa More, blah, blah, blah, whatever. She Comes, she's like, I'm going to stay single. Hopefully he stayed single. He doesn't, he comes back with a girl, they get in this like whole big thing, whatever. But there is a moment where she starts crying because he's come back with a girl. And I have never watched a reality television show and cried because I. You're not Scorpio. Yeah, that's just not something I would ever do. I literally started tearing up because I knew, I knew in my gut not only was she dealing with like this guy just being like the biggest, like, honestly, a lot of the men on Love island this year because they're Gen Z are very red pilled and it's very scary. And I don't think people are realizing it to the full potential. Like the way they talk about the girls doing sexual things is very, very back in time. Like, it's actually like concerning anyway. That's a whole separate situation. I digress. But I could tell that I started tearing up because I could tell that she was crying because she wanted to be like, and I'm being filmed right now. Like, she was so frustrated and she was like, and I'm on a show like, and everyone is watching this. Like, you could tell it wasn't just about the guy, it was about like. And I, I feel like I'm in jail because I can't fuck it. Like, I want to leave, I have to leave.

[Hannah]

And she's like, this is fudgeing embarrassing. And I didn't sign up to be embarrassed. I signed up to like find love on.

[Paige]

And like, yes. And so there was, I just felt so horrible for. I literally started like, I had a full tear run down my face because I was like, I know exactly what you're feeling. Like I was almost like, yeah, go girl, go home. Like, if you want to go home, go home. Like, I'm a very big proponent of like, and I'll leave. Fuck you and I'm going home.

[Hannah]

There are so many times I tried, should have left and I didn't because I told myself I'm not a quitter sometimes you should quit, persevere. I think with reality TV too. Like, Paige and I aren't criers and we've cried on TV many times because when there's a camera there, everything feels

[Paige]

so much more intense and serious.

[Hannah]

Serious. And that's why when someone does something mean on camera, it's so much meaner because you're like, you know the whole world's going to see you say that about me. So like, you want you want the whole world to think that about me?

[Paige]

There are so many times where you're, like, on camera. Are you on camera? Kidding me?

[Hannah]

That came out of your mouth on camera.

[Paige]

And there are times, I think, too, that you realize that not everyone is built like you. Because there would be situations where I, like, in my head, I'd be like, I would never fucking do that to you on camera. Look, there's been horrible men on Love island since 2015. It's not like, the beginning of time. Yeah. It's not like. It's like a nuanced thing. But never once in my years of watching Love island have I ever heard a man say or complain that. That the girl he is coupled up with is not doing enough sexual things with him. And also the way. The way the men disguise, like, well, I'm just very affectionate. Well, my love language is affectionate. Yeah, no shit. You want your dick sucked. Like, we're not idiots. Yeah, but the way they're talking about, like, the sexual acts that the girls are doing or not doing, it's like, hey, they're on national television. Like, I think it's a pretty plausible thing to not want to fuck on a television show.

[Hannah]

I'm confused, though. Are the guys wanting the girls to be more sexual or judging them for being sexual or both?

[Paige]

Both. So they want them to be more sexual with them, but, like, if a girl explores more than one, they're like, really? Do you need to explore more than one person yet? Love Island. That's the whole goddamn point of the show.

[Hannah]

Meanwhile, they're. They're talking to everyone. Wait, what's with the. It's called the clamshell drop or something. It's the split where she's. It's called slamming the clam. She's slamming her clam?

[Paige]

Is that what they're calling it?

[Hannah]

Yeah, that's what's coming up in my algorithm. This the clam slam.

[Paige]

Slam. Okay, I actually don't hate that, but, yeah, she does a lot of splits.

[Hannah]

I'm so fucking jealous. Honestly, I'm so fucking jealous. If I could slam my clam.

[Paige]

Oh, Hannah, if you could do splits, I'd actually have to reevaluate our friendship.

[Hannah]

Wait. Do you know that's why I started watching Dallas Cowboy cheerleaders yesterday?

[Paige]

And your thoughts, honey?

[Hannah]

I have. I watched the whole first season.

[Paige]

Honey, I'm so glad you didn't do it the way you did Mormon Wives, where you literally went backwards, because that was diabolical.

[Hannah]

Yeah, that confused me.

[Paige]

You're one Season in.

[Hannah]

Okay, My thoughts are these women literally bring these cheerleaders out back and leave them for dead.

[Paige]

They're like, oh, did you gain three pounds out of here? They're like, hey, legally, we can't tell you to lose weight, but if we could, we'd say, look on the scale, minus it by 40.

[Hannah]

I think it's because I watched the whole season in a day. But, yeah, everyone's really sad. Mm. Like, it's too depressing for me to watch because they're. Whether it's. Whether they're doing well, they're like, this is really sad. And then if they're not doing well, they're like, this is really sad.

[Paige]

Okay.

[Hannah]

They're all. They're all so stressed and scared of missing, like, one pom pom routine, and they're all overqualified. They're all overqualified for what this gig is paying them, obviously.

[Paige]

I kind of want someone to say to the. You know how it's the two coaches and then the head woman. Have you met the head woman? Hair, blue eyes.

[Hannah]

Yeah. Yes.

[Paige]

She's, like, in charge of Judy and the other lady.

[Hannah]

She's Jerry Jones's daughter.

[Paige]

She's scary as fuck. Okay. There's something really, really terrifying about her, and I don't know what it is.

[Hannah]

It's rich people shit.

[Paige]

And I think it's her blue eyes.

[Hannah]

Like, that's another realm that I've never been to. She's such a billionaire that she doesn't understand, like, anything where the head. The other head lady was like, how do we tell this girl who's good enough that she can't make the team for no reason? And she goes, we have 36 girls. Yeah, tell her 36. It's easy.

[Paige]

She's literally like, you're ugly. You're not making the team. You're hideous. And okay, look, I love a makeover. Like, I truly. I love a makeover scene. I love. I'd love to give someone a makeover. Like, I watch even, like, watching Love Island. Like, the girls are gorgeous, but I'm like, oh, what if we, like, took your eyelashes off, cut your hair? And, like. Like, I'm always thinking, like, what are random things? Because that's my hobby. I. And not in, like, a judgmental, mean way.

[Hannah]

Are your pat.

[Paige]

Yeah. I'm just like, what if you wear a brunette the way they do the makeovers? I. I'm sorry, but if you put me in that room in Dallas, Texas, I don't know if it's because it's Like, east coast. But in 10 minutes, I'm lighting those up. Like, I'm like, who the do you think you are? Like. And I don't know if it's because the girls are, like, young 20s, and they feel like these women are, like, authority and they have to respect them. But, like, there's so many times where I'm watching the show where I'd be like, and you, Paige, to this day,

[Hannah]

I'll sit down in a and make a bar. So do my makeup and just do some crazy. And I'll say thank you and leave. Like, I get it. I get it. I bleach my own hair. I was like, no, that was me.

[Paige]

Yeah, but. Okay, but if you want to do something, like, that's autonomy. Yeah. Do whatever you want.

[Hannah]

But if they do it before they let them in. Yeah, that girl dye her hair brown and then told her she's not on the team.

[Paige]

Yeah, like, what the fuck is that? I think that is so rude.

[Hannah]

The Girls from the 70s are so iconic because the team was actually the best in the 70s. So, like, they made them famous. So it is cool to see those women. But then I hate when people say. And they do this a lot on the show. It's very cultish. They go, this. These are the best years of your life. And they purposely tell that to them over and over again so that these girls feel lucky. And these girls are going to look back and be like, oh, that was my most insecure, scariest time. And by the way, stop saying these are the best. College is not the best years of your life. Your 20s are not the best years of your life. Anyone who says that to you is lying.

[Paige]

I hated college.

[Hannah]

You know, the best years of your life are this moment right now. Yeah, whatever you can choose to live in, Literally. But, yeah, those women are scary as fuck.

[Paige]

Also super scary.

[Hannah]

I do watch a lot of things and get inspired. Like, I'll watch him a music documentary of, like, a rock star, and I'll be like, I want to be a rock star. Or I'll watch, like, an. A documentary of, like, a softball pitcher. And I'll be like, I want to be a softball pitcher one day. Not one ounce of me wanted to be a cheerleader watching that.

[Paige]

Me watching it, I'm like, oh, I love the outfits. I love. Like, I. But I love really girly stuff like that. But what I don't like. Well, I don't like. I don't like being managed. You can't tell me what to goddamn do. So I don't know if I could actually be like on an organized sports team as an adult.

[Hannah]

My biggest thing, and I don't know what this says about me, but I hate being part of like a stream of salmon. Does that make sense?

[Paige]

You hate going with the crowd?

[Hannah]

Yeah, Like, I hate being like, you've made it to be a non descript beautiful girl in the crowd of beautiful girls. And you all just are like one beautiful girl now. Like, I love individuality and being myself and expressing myself. And I feel like they're trying to make you be something that none of them actually are. Like all these girls are different and beautiful in their own ways and they're all trying to be these caricatures. I just love being my own person. So that was driving me crazy that it's like you have to fit in with what everyone's doing, wear the same thing, look the same, be the same.

[Paige]

You know what I'd love? I'd love this exact show for the Rockettes. Because I'd love to know. I would say it's very. I'd say it's probably same ages, same. I think they have to try out every single year. I'd love to know. Also professional dancers. I'd love to know how they get treated it being in New York City versus Dallas, Texas.

[Hannah]

Well, some of the Dallas, Texas girls were talking about how they could try to be a Rockette because they have the skills. What do you think of Victoria?

[Paige]

Oh, sweet girl. I feel really bad for her.

[Hannah]

So for people who know Victoria, basically her whole life was about becoming a Dallas cheerleader. She's like sitting in her room with like all these Dallas cheerleader merchandise and stuff.

[Paige]

I think the coaches were disgusting to her. I think they were so mean to her.

[Hannah]

Well, she also was like, I feel like I don't fit in. None of the coaches, like, want me to do well. And in her, this is it kind of remind me of tennis a little. Where I was like, this has been my dream my whole life. But it got to a point where I was like, every sign is telling me to stop and I have to stop blindly chasing this dream. So I really empathize with her. Yeah. Where I was like, you're going to learn from this fucked up experience. But like, she's not where she's meant to be and that's why everything was just like going wrong for her.

[Paige]

I think she goes and becomes a rat cat.

[Hannah]

Fuck.

[Paige]

Yeah. You know how they say that, like, men don't respect women that they don't find attractive?

[Hannah]

Yes.

[Paige]

Neither do Older women in Texas, oh, over 40, they actually feel the same way.

[Hannah]

Therese, who's adorable, they were like, oh, we met your boyfriend. He's not what we thought he would be. And she's like, what do you mean? And they go, we thought you'd be with, like, a football player or something. She's like, no, he doesn't play football. And they're like, okay.

[Paige]

And if someone ever fucking said that to my face.

[Hannah]

You're so jacked up right now.

[Paige]

I've been hanging with my dad for too long. Really? It's been, like, five days. And I'm like, would you say.

[Hannah]

You go? And I think it was disgusting.

[Paige]

No, it was despicable is what it is. Because, like, I'm not in, like, an authority. I'm not, like, the authority of anyone. Like, I'm not. I mean, I guess I am people's boss, but. But I don't ever see it like that. So, like, I don't know how you can be in charge of a group of people regardless of what your job is, but especially be in charge of a group of women who are significant. That would be like me running a fourth grade team. No, this is exactly what it is.

[Hannah]

Sophia, can I talk to you for a second?

[Paige]

I am the coach of a fifth grade cheerleading team. And I'm gonna be mean to those. No, no. Because I could have birthed them.

[Hannah]

So now age comes wiseness. Like, there were so many moments where I feel like she could have given, like, wise advice. She was just like, get out of here, you. Maybe next year. Maybe next year, girl. God bless. Bless her heart.

[Paige]

And the girls are always in the room. Like, the coaches are being so mean to them. And the girls are always in the room. Like, thank you so much.

[Hannah]

One of the rules is you have to say, yes, ma'. Am. And if they don't, they go, would you? And she goes, yes, ma'.

[Paige]

Am.

[Hannah]

But also, what's crazy is these girls, like, on game day, they're working from 9:00am to 9:00pm yeah, right?

[Paige]

They're getting up at, like, five crazy.

[Hannah]

Like, longer than the football players. These girls are working.

[Paige]

And they were like, why don't you want $2 an hour? They're like, that. That's not enough for you?

[Hannah]

Well, at the end, they had. The girls had to say, like, if they want to come back. And I'm like, can they afford to?

[Paige]

The one girl's like, I need a hip replacement. Also, like, I feel like they can cut the splits. Like, if every girl is like, hey, my femur Bone is hurt. Like, is. It's on its last leg.

[Hannah]

They have this dance called Thunderstruck, which is, like, what they're known for.

[Paige]

Yeah. No, it's a phenomenal dance.

[Hannah]

It's a phenomenal dance, but it turns out it's, like, the hardest dance to do. And I'm like, we could. No one would notice if we cut 30 seconds.

[Paige]

Why isn't anyone bringing up the fact that they do the same dance every single year? You guys don't want to switch it up ever? Like, I don't like the same thing. Yeah. Like, yeah. No wonder some people are so good at it. They've been doing it for 20 years.

[Hannah]

Like, but also when they kept saying that the splits are, like, ruining their body, even though I was jealous, I couldn't do it. I was like. I couldn't watch it. I was like, these girls are used losing. I can't watch them split their. Because they do a jump split. It was like a drag queen move. They're doing, like, death drops.

[Paige]

In this season, though, there's one girl that's like, no, my doctor said if I do another split, and the coaches are like, well, what are you gonna do? And she's like, I'm gonna ice it, ma'. Am. Don't worry. I'm gonna ice it. I'm like, you need to go to Alaska. You need more ice than what's in your refrigerator in Texas.

[Hannah]

Someone get Kenzie from Love Island. She'll do the splits.

[Paige]

It's just such a fun. It's just a freaking.

[Hannah]

Are season two and three better or different?

[Paige]

Season three was real weird. Season three was not as good as season one and two.

[Hannah]

There is just a sadness to it all, though. Like, it was really starting. Also, I am sad, so that could have been it.

[Paige]

There's a certain dark energy that I can't put my finger on.

[Hannah]

It's real dark. Wait, can I get you mad about something?

[Paige]

Yeah.

[Hannah]

So apparently, they're putting tons of money into, like, trying to secure male baldness, and it's, like, millions of dollars more than any research they've done for endometriosis. The, like, discrepancy between the money going towards male baldness versus endometriosis studies is, like, insane.

[Paige]

You're balding because God believes in karma. So either deal with it or. Or go pay 30 grand to get a hair transplant.

[Hannah]

I knew I was going to get you going.

[Paige]

Do you know it takes 10 years to even get diagnosed with endometriosis?

[Hannah]

Because no one cares about it, and

[Paige]

we don't need to diagnose you motherfuckers with male pattern baldness. We know when you're ugly. Put a hat on.

[Hannah]

Also, I would argue that whoever's voting for where the money goes in the senate or the state or the whatever. I bet those men don't know what endometriosis is.

[Paige]

I have so many exes that are balding and let me tell you, the joy that it brings me is un. There's no greater joy. I have at least four and I love.

[Hannah]

I just got notified that one of my exes got a hair. Hair replacement or whatever.

[Paige]

Yeah. As they should.

[Hannah]

And you guys, karma's real karma works. That's. It's one thing we know for sure on this pod.

[Paige]

[Hannah]

did I talk about how I got stuck in a gay pride?

[Paige]

Like, you walked in the middle of it.

[Hannah]

Like, let me set the scene.

[Paige]

Yeah.

[Hannah]

So I'm in Toronto and they told me where to get my spray tan and I had to physically go somewhere. And I was like, I'm picking the best place because I'm scared of what's recently happened to me. I did all this research. This is the place to go. So it's like a 50 minute walk, but like a six minute Uber. And of course I was like, fucking around the bathroom when I was running late. So I was like, fuck it, I'll Uber. Ten minutes in, I realized this Uber, we're still in traffic. And it's one of those where, like, if you're late by 10 minutes, they cancel the call. So I start freaking out.

[Paige]

Not very Canadian of them.

[Hannah]

No, I know. So I called them and I'm like, hey, just stuck in traffic. But it says soon. The guy's like, all the roads are closed. All the Toronto roads are closed. I'm like, okay, why is this happening? He's like, I don't know. And I'm like, I'll just get out and figure this out. So I get out and I start going on the street I'm supposed to be on that was closed. Next thing you know, middle of the Pride Parade, I'm literally dancing to Ariana Grande. Rain on me, rain, rain Rain on me, rain.

[Paige]

Wait, what's it called when you're the. Like, you're the head of the parade? What is that called? Like, the Grand. What is that called? No, I'm Googling it. That's some. That's called something.

[Hannah]

I was like, let's keep going. Faster, faster. Running late to my tan appointment, which I feel like was like, people understood. But I'm literally getting through the Pride Parade. While there was a drag queen at one point, I was like, yes, Queen. Yes, Queen. And I had the best time on Toronto Pride.

[Paige]

A grand marshal.

[Hannah]

I knew I'm the grand marshal.

[Paige]

You were the grand marshal of Toronto

[Hannah]

Gay Pride Parade also, let's be honest, completely lesbian. Passing. Everyone was like, finally. I was wearing what I'm wearing right now, big T shirt and just loving life. And when I got it, I was like, sorry, I was in the Pride Parade. Sorry I'm late. And she was like, it's okay.

[Paige]

Are you interested in anything World cup related? Like, have you watched any games or. You don't care? Because sometimes. Because you're a sports girly really at heart, so sometimes you will dabble in other, like, genres and where I, like. I'm not, like. I'm not like, turning on a soccer game, you know?

[Hannah]

You know, it's funny because DEZ is European. Yeah. So he likes soccer. Something about it. I haven't wrapped my head around it. Yeah.

[Paige]

You can't get into it.

[Hannah]

I can't get into it because. Yeah, I haven't. No, I've also been, like, going through it, so I haven't been able to. But also soccer, I have trouble watching.

[Paige]

One thing I think about a lot with soccer players is because the field is big and they're running the whole time. How do they not shit themselves?

[Hannah]

You know, it is.

[Paige]

How are marathon runners not shitting themselves?

[Hannah]

I think they are.

[Paige]

Are they?

[Hannah]

They are.

[Paige]

Because, like, if you go dog sledding, the dogs shit themselves because they're running so much.

[Hannah]

As a marathon runner now, yeah. I have to say, you won't have to shit. And the second you get on that treadmill, you're like, okay, after I've put my purse down, set up my eye, my eyes, I almost said iPad, iPhone, put my Gatorade down. Now I suddenly have to shit myself because my body's like, I have to run. But no, when you're like in the adrenaline, it's like when you're on stage, you get. It holds in unless you're going through like a real stomach situation. But with soccer with me, I don't know what they're trying to do. So I can't tell when someone's doing something good or bad because no one's getting it in the goals. So I just. It just like, looks like people are kicking it to each other. But again, I know I'm being a stupid American when I say that.

[Paige]

I just like, anytime I watch a sport, I think of like, okay, in what way would I get hurt? And I'm like, someone would kick my shin and that's it, I'm done.

[Hannah]

Well, apparently it has as many. Okay, that's a made up stat. But like, there's a lot of concussions because they all jump and try to head the ball. So everyone's jumping and then like headbutting each other and just cracking each other's skulls.

[Paige]

Wow.

[Hannah]

No, that's not good. Which leads us to women in stem of the week.

[Paige]

Hell yeah.

[Hannah]

There's a girl who, I don't know what happened, but she lost her license.

[Paige]

Okay, okay. And it could have been, could have been a lot of things.

[Hannah]

Could have been many things. We don't judge. But she's in college and, like, hats to get to class, so she's driving around.

[Paige]

So she lost it within four years of having it, essentially. Not great, not great, not great.

[Hannah]

But to get to class now she's driving around in a Barbie Jeep and like, dead serious, like, on campus.

[Paige]

And that's innovation and that's just, like, smart. Why there's no different than taking like a scooter or a bike.

[Hannah]

It's just so funny because she looks, like miserable going to class in her barbecue.

[Paige]

Wait, can you send me that video? Because I love that.

[Hannah]

Yeah, it's very. You coded.

[Paige]

Yeah. I love that so much. I'm almost like, why didn't I think of that?

[Hannah]

I feel like because you've been in Italy, I've had to. And I'm just like scrolling my phone. I have so many random news stories for us. Have you heard of the cake pop drama?

[Paige]

Cake pop K pop.

[Hannah]

Cake pop cake.

[Paige]

Okay.

[Hannah]

Cake cake. Sorry, I can't really speak right now.

[Paige]

Sorry. It's a cake cake situation, Drew.

[Hannah]

Cake pop drama.

[Paige]

Okay.

[Hannah]

Basically, a girl makes cake pops.

[Paige]

Okay.

[Hannah]

And it's a real art form. Like, people really follow these.

[Paige]

Like a Starbucks cake pop.

[Hannah]

Yeah. So they make it at home and they basically make the cake with a cake batter like that you buy like Betty Crocker. And then it's kind of fun to watch them dip it into different things. And it's like different colors. They do tie, dye, whatever. I actually got kind of into it for a second.

[Paige]

Yeah. Women.

[Hannah]

And so one of the women is like, hey, I'm really annoyed. This woman stole my. My recipe for Fruity Pebbles cake pops. The girl posts, crying, and she's like, I didn't steal your recipe. I don't know your recipe. You don't post your recipe. She's like, it's Fruity Pebbles and Betty Crocker. Like, what recipe are you talking about? Everyone gets mad at the first girl and the first girls, like, has to quit cake popping because her business is now canceled cuz she accused the other girl of stealing her cake pop recipe and that made that girl cry.

[Paige]

We've really lost the plot.

[Hannah]

This is why the patriarchy is winning,

[Paige]

you guys, is because we're getting caught up in cake pop situations. Wait, I saw that. The girl. There's a girl that tried to trade mark Hot girl walk.

[Hannah]

Everyone's talking about it now. Like, girls need to stop claiming general things.

[Paige]

I just feel like with the Internet, everyone thinks they're like a lawyer and a doctor. And I think like the first one of the biggest things about like being mature and self aware is admitting when you don't know something and you're not an authority on it. And being like, honest, being like, I don't know that, or like, I wouldn't. How would I know? But the Internet, everyone is like an authority.

[Hannah]

Like, well, that's the problem. Some of them are getting bad advice. Like this one girl said a lawyer told her, like, it was your recipe. You're allowed to fight for this. But these lawyers don't understand, like, nuance and like, culture that like, okay, maybe

[Paige]

you can't trademark a common phrase. Just. And also, if anything, Megan the stallion started hot girl whatever.

[Hannah]

So. Yes.

[Paige]

How would you even.

[Hannah]

Well, it's like us trying to trademark giggle. That's like, we didn't invent giggling.

[Paige]

Right?

[Hannah]

Like, well, also, It's just like, I guess people having people in their ear trying to make money and using the legal system. And back then, I think all this stuff used to happen. Like, back then, everyone's suing everyone, but nowadays, you can kind of. It can go viral online.

[Paige]

Actually, I think Paris Hilton trademarked. That's hot.

[Hannah]

Yeah. I think it's a common thing that people make money off of. I mean, do you remember websites? People are just like, I own peanuts.com. and you're like, okay, you got. You got it. First you got to.

[Paige]

Somebody owned Paige to sorbo.com for a really long time. And I used to try and figure out who it was because I genuinely thought it was someone I knew. Just trying to like with me. Because then, wait, remember when someone owned giggly squad.com and they wanted us to pay, like, thousands and thousands of dollars and we were like, you, we'll do a hyphen.

[Hannah]

Yeah, that's why we have a hyphen. We were like, okay. We literally don't. It's crazy that you think we care about our brand.

[Paige]

I'm like, last thing I'm doing is giving some random ass man money for my name. Keep it, babe. Keep.

[Hannah]

Also, apparently someone, yeah. Did At Giggly Squad on Twitter, and they were like, you have to buy it from us. And we're like, that's hilarious. You think we use Twitter?

[Paige]

Yeah. I'm like, I haven't gone on Twitter since 2006. Have I really?

[Hannah]

You can keep our Twitter. You can keep it, babe.

[Paige]

There's someone on Facebook, like, pretending to be me, and so many people have dmed me about it, like, hey, like, just want to let you know. And I'm like, who the fuck is on Facebook? I'm like, I don't give a shit.

[Hannah]

Like, mental health moment of the week. I did see a TikTok. That was really helpful because as you guys know, I'm not very good at processing my emotions. Sometimes I just turn it into jokes, and then I cry about it alone after. And I still, to this day, I'm like, what does it fucking mean to process an emotion? Like, I don't understand, especially as an athlete, where it's like, how do you feel? And you're like, good, I'm fine. I'M strong. So this woman said, processing an emotion is when you feel an emotion before you immediately try to fix it. Fix it. Call your mom. Try to make it feel better. Eat something to soften the blow before you do anything. She basically was like, sit in the emotion. Just like, don't do. And basically don't do anything. Because I was like, what does processing mean? She's like, just let it. Just feel it. And it's uncomfortable. Whether it's hatred, anger, shame, envy, sadness. Sit in it and give it, like, a couple minutes and then do something. Because it trains your body to learn that it's safe for you to feel. So the next time that emotion comes up, you don't panic as much because your body has sat with it before and it didn't do anything crazy.

[Paige]

Okay, well, I've never processed an emotion before, so that was enlightening. Now that I realize that, the second

[Hannah]

you feel about emotion, what do you do? You grab your gua sha and you start your skincare routine.

[Paige]

Yeah, okay. I guess I actually immediately start yelling, but, yeah, I should do so.

[Hannah]

I guess sitting with it makes your body less impulsive to be scared of feeling. And then once you can handle your feelings, you're kind of fucking unstoppable.

[Paige]

You know that book, it's called, like, I forget what it's called, but it basically tells you if you're like. Every girl I feel like has read it. I haven't read it, but I feel like we should because I want to know what each of us are.

[Hannah]

Maybe that could be the second book you read

[Paige]

where it's like, you're either, like, anxious. Attachment.

[Hannah]

Oh, yeah.

[Paige]

And then, like, I don't know what the other ones are, but I really want to know what I am because I know that whatever I am, it's something anxious.

[Hannah]

Did not need a doctor to tell you that. Don't need to read a whole book, darling, to tell you that. You know what?

[Paige]

Maybe I do need just the DCC coaches to tell me what the really. What the fuck is wrong with me. Maybe they're. Maybe actually they have it right. Maybe they're just the bluntness is what the truth is.

[Hannah]

All I want is Judy to think I'm. I'm cool. I'm amazing. Like, all I want is Judy to love me. After watching it, I was like, put me in front of Judy and. And I will say, how hot.

[Paige]

I said the same thing for very different reasons. I said, you know what? Put me in that room right now.

[Hannah]

This is my impression of Judy watching Me walk into the audition room.

[Paige]

Wait, your screen is frozen so I actually can't see you, so it's like really annoying me.

[Hannah]

Is it? How long has it been frozen?

[Paige]

Like, five minutes.

[Hannah]

Okay, well, this is how we're ending the episode is my impression of me walking into audition room and Judy and the other one are there. Oh, she's pear shaped.

[Paige]

Oh, she's pear shaped.

[Hannah]

Oh, that's not a pretty smile. Oh, no, she didn't.

[Paige]

Oh, is she a redhead? I don't think a natural one.

[Hannah]

Oh, no. Why does it look like she's crying every time she smiles? Okay.

[Paige]

Oh, I think her fingers are just as stubby as her legs. And I don't think they also say the meanest things in the nicest tone.

[Hannah]

I'm like, wait, that's really mean. Her mom never taught her how to use a razor on her thigh.

[Paige]

I will say some of the meanest people I've ever met in my whole life. I'm really sorry, but have been Southern, like, they just have been where I'm like, oh, my God. I've dealt with like, I've had a girl yell in my face before and she wasn't even this mean. This is scary.

[Hannah]

Yeah. Southern ladies will speak like this and just rip you a new one.

[Paige]

Yeah. Because there's something very demonic about that. They don't change their tone. And it's like a nice tone. And it's like, that's the most evil thing I've ever heard. And I think it's something that, like, they're very vocal about being religious. But I'm like, okay, I don't think he'd approve of that. Okay, that's okay.

[Hannah]

Anyway, you guys have the best weekend ever. We love you so much. Thank you for giggling with us and we'll talk to y' all later. Bye.
