Transcript

[Paige]

You know Hannah and I love a good bedrotting session, reality TV snacks nearby and now I've leveled up with my self care game with this Shark Beauty Cryoglow.

[Hannah]

Cryoglow is the number one skincare facial device in the US and if you don't know what the cryo glow is, it's the LED beauty mask. I've been using it for oh my gosh months and months now.

[Paige]

It's truly like a luxury spa moment. While you're literally horizontal, it's perfect for post workout Sunday scaries or when you just want to glow while rotting.

[Hannah]

It not only minimizes fine line, helps firm sagging skin, it also reduces acne redness and helps you just have clear complexion overall. But my favorite part is their under eye revive treatment. It's this under eye cooling treatment that you basically control the temperature. It's powered by Instachill cold technology. It truly is life saving and life changing. It's so easy to integrate into your skincare. I literally leave it right by my bed and I do it every single night. And it's the holiday season so you should treat yourself to the number one LED beauty mask in the US this holiday season.

And every December when I finally accept that I'm behind, I go straight to Tito's Vodka. It's hands down the easiest, most reliable gift. The other night I made myself a Tito's Cosmo while trying to catch up on my shopping list and it reminded me why Tito's is always my go to. It just works for everyone. Bring Tito's to any party and it will be a crowd pleaser. Don't overthink it and buy a bottle of wine you've never tried or a random whiskey because of its label. It's get the stuff you know is good and that everyone will enjoy. I'll grab a bottle of Tito's, wrap it up with a cute little holiday bow and I'm done. Plus they come with those little sweaters this time of year. So whether I'm heading to a friend's house or dropping off a last minute gift, it's zero stress and always a hit.

[Paige]

Gary, fix your WI fi.

[Grace]

Manifest that shit. We can't be managed.

[Paige]

I mean, the day just got away from me.

[Grace]

Hi, Grace. Thanks for hopping on on a Monday. I know, I know it's hard.

[Des]

It's okay. It's, like, not what I expected for my Monday, but it's fine. Where is Paige?

[Paige]

Hey, I aware that there was a Zoom.

[Grace]

Paige, we've had this Zoom scheduled for two years.

[Paige]

Sorry, it. It slipped my mind.

[Grace]

Well, thank you guys for hopping on this official Giggly Squad business meeting.

[Hannah]

Zoom.

[Grace]

I just have, like, some important things we should talk about before the New year.

[Des]

Ever.

[Grace]

Yeah, our first ever meeting we've had, and the whole company's here, so. That's great. Are we forgetting anyone?

[Paige]

Yes, Grace. Do you want to introduce yourself?

[Grace]

Yes, Grace. What do you do for the business?

[Des]

I'd rather not.

[Paige]

Okay, perfect.

[Grace]

Okay. Do you want to send us an email of things you've done this year so we could review it?

[Des]

Yeah, I'd love to. I'll get right on there. Yeah.

[Grace]

Okay, great. And I'm sorry for making you guys meet on Monday. I know. It's like, Mondays are like. Shoot, I forgot what I was gonna say. Like, I forgot the point of the meeting. Peace and love, guys. Love and light, guys.

[Des]

Come on.

[Grace]

He's out.

[Paige]

20, 25.

[Grace]

Oh. That's literally why I brought you guys here. Paige, I have to pitch you an idea, and I think the Gigglers will, like, be really excited as, like, a gift for the new year. Yeah. This is kind of crazy, though.

[Paige]

Okay?

[Hannah]

Like.

[Grace]

Like, life is never going to be the same.

[Paige]

Okay.

[Grace]

Okay. I'm nervous. What do you think about us doing next year, two episodes a week? Like, is that crazy?

[Paige]

No, I kind of love it. It's just my first thought is, like, how are we telling the Gigglers? Like, what are. Like, what are we.

[Grace]

We have to hire a full PR company to do, like, a whole thing, you know? Yeah.

[Paige]

Like, I. I feel like there's, like, different. Like, it has to be, like, innovative.

[Grace]

Yeah. It has to be, like, never before seen type of, like. Okay, marketing.

[Paige]

You know, like, when guys want to impress you that sometimes they have that app on their phone where they can change the color of the Empire State Building.

[Grace]

I've never heard that before.

[Paige]

It's like, an app. And, like, sometimes guys will be like, I can change the color of The Empire State Building. Like, they're lying to you. No, I've seen the app before. Like, I've seen that. You can do it. Okay, what if we did something like that? Like, we changed. Like, we took the Empire State Building.

[Grace]

I mean, I kind of love that. Grace, do you have any contacts at the Empire State Building?

[Des]

It feels like a little bit above my pay grade at this time.

[Paige]

Okay, just, like, send an email.

[Des]

Okay.

[Grace]

I don't know. But then also, like, what's global? So maybe, like, do we want to do, like, something with, like, Australia? Should we go to us? I mean, go to Australia.

[Paige]

I mean, like, what other podcasts do when they're, like, announcing something?

[Grace]

What? Like, I can't think of, like, any other podcast.

[Paige]

Like, when you think of, like, what's a podcast? When you think smart list, you think men, right? So it's like three men talking. What are they saying?

[Grace]

No one men stuff.

[Paige]

So I feel like when you hear the word giggly, you think laughing, you know? So I think it all needs to be focused on laughing.

[Grace]

Should I, like. Yeah, should we, like. Should we do, like, a musical? Like, a comedy musical?

[Paige]

What if we did, like, some type.

[Hannah]

Of flash mob situation?

[Grace]

Oh, my God, that's so 2013. I'm obsessed.

[Paige]

And it's like, I'm not. We're not proposing to someone. We're just proposing an idea, you know, like, it's a proposal idea.

[Grace]

Oh, you get on one knee, who proposes to who, you or me?

[Paige]

It's us proposing to the Gigglers. Yeah.

[Des]

So we fly everyone to one place. Everyone's together.

[Grace]

Okay, so we go to Australia, do a flash mob.

[Paige]

It's out of.

[Grace]

How long is the flight? Like, three, four hours.

[Paige]

Yeah.

[Grace]

Should we bring our moms?

[Paige]

We will need probably some parental supervision at some point.

[Grace]

Yeah. And, like, do you think we should have, like, should we get stuff on a plane? Like, when the plane is going to Australia, should it say, like, two episodes? Two episodes for goodness?

[Paige]

Or we. We all buy two cats, and we're like, what does this mean?

[Grace]

Okay, rewind, rewind, rewind. Forget the plane. Forget Australia. Forget the flash mob. We all get another cat and just start showing. Like, we do Snapchats. The people use Snapchat.

[Paige]

And we're like, it's the second cat. What is that?

[Grace]

Cat. Second cat. And we wait for them to guess why we have so many cats.

[Paige]

Two cats.

[Des]

Yeah. I think that's perfect.

[Paige]

I think that could be really cool.

[Grace]

Okay, I have to run it by Des, my husband.

[Paige]

Yeah. Maybe the second episode. It's like, we go rogue, and it's all about centering men, and, like, we're, like, the leading forces in curing the male loneliness epidemic. You know, Something's so off brand.

[Grace]

Okay, I feel like that might be too out of the box, but I love you think I love, like, your thought process right now, because to be the number one podcast in the world, we have to think outside the box. But I feel like that would get us canceled.

[Paige]

I feel like sometimes wearing a towel on my head, like, warms my brain and, like, my.

[Grace]

Your juices are flowing. Yeah. The serums on your face are, like, really working. Grace, do you. You haven't talked much. Do you have anything to bring to the conversation?

[Paige]

Share your screen or something?

[Des]

I actually don't know how.

[Paige]

Perfect.

[Des]

I'll definitely, like, learn that for the next meeting.

[Grace]

I mean, have you been. Have you been taking notes?

[Des]

Oh, for sure.

[Grace]

Okay, good, because I forgot everything we said.

[Des]

I'm not texting. I'm taking notes.

[Grace]

Are you online shopping?

[Des]

It's. It's really none of your business what I do in my time.

[Grace]

Okay, so we need to tell the Gigglers. It's two episodes.

[Paige]

It's two episodes starting in the new year. Tuesday it comes out, and Friday.

[Grace]

Friday, yeah, because Tuesday is, like, the week started. You need to giggle. And then Friday you're like, am I. Am I going crazy?

[Paige]

And I think that's, like, the theme of the second episode. Like, is this crazy? Like, because it could be anything.

[Grace]

Should we, like, talk to a scientist about, like, making, like, clones of us? And then, like, we do, like, a panel page, trying new things, get cloned, and we show up and it's two.

[Paige]

Of us, and then we're, like, reinforcing.

[Grace]

Two episodes, and everyone's. We're like.

[Paige]

We just, like, we do IVF and we have twins, and we're like, actually, that's so much.

[Grace]

Makes more sense. Wait, Grace, do you have any contacts with, like, IVF scientist clone people? I do.

[Des]

I've been, like, waiting for you guys to ask about this.

[Paige]

Okay, for the second episode, like, should we have guests? Like, should we, like, we have social.

[Grace]

Anxiety, so that makes me nervous. But, like, if the Gigglers are obsessed with people, like, we could probably get Grace to message someone. Someone to come on. So if the Gigglers want people, we'll listen. But it's basically, like, only if we really need to.

[Hannah]

Yeah.

[Paige]

Okay, cool. I think, like, we literally just circle back Christmas and, like.

[Grace]

Okay, so do we. Did we have. Do we have a plan? Like, did this make sense? Grace, do you know what to do now?

[Des]

Yeah, I have. I feel like we have a lot of plans and like, we're just. I think we just execute all of them.

[Paige]

Yeah.

[Grace]

Okay. Is that too much in your plate? Because I know it's like the holidays, Grace, and I think you're with your family right now, and I don't want.

[Des]

To, like, I'll actually, like. We could have another meeting on Christmas day.

[Paige]

Perfect.

[Grace]

Is Christmas morning okay?

[Des]

For sure.

[Grace]

Like, okay.

[Des]

Yeah.

[Grace]

Okay.

[Des]

Okay.

[Paige]

Before we go, just like this, my cat.

[Grace]

Okay. Amazing Daphne. Oh, yeah. Can you, like, paint the number two, like, on her and have her just kind of walk around New York?

[Paige]

Totally.

[Grace]

Yeah.

[Paige]

It's like.

[Grace]

Like a pink.

[Paige]

It's like, it's different than, like, oh, we're putting something on the sidewalk. It's like we actually have live cats, like, roaming the streets a hundred percent.

[Grace]

Like, when in doubt, use.

[Paige]

They're not stray cats. They're actor. They're starving artists.

[Grace]

They're paid actors. She is paid pretty well. She's on. She's part of the company. Okay. Grace, thank you for leaving your family. I think we have, like, a really good plan. And I hope the Gigglers are excited. I'm nervous.

[Paige]

Okay. Yeah.

[Grace]

Good luck with your skin.

[Des]

Happy holidays.

[Grace]

Love you guys. Bye. Thanks for listening to our quick zoom. And I hope you guys are excited for the new year and our present. Happy holidays. We're officially going to two episodes a week starting next year. And in the meantime, here are all our favorite moments from 2025.

[Paige]

Actually, think about how many gay men there had to have been in the 1700s.

[Grace]

They're all gay.

[Paige]

I mean, capris were trending. You think a straight man did capris?

[Grace]

They wore wigs. Whenever they had a meeting, there was something unnecessary.

[Paige]

Wait, what about a high sock?

[Grace]

They wore ballet flats.

[Paige]

Someone said, wait, let me put a bow. I think that'd be adorable.

[Grace]

Also, they were like, I don't want to write without a feather. At the end of my pen, someone.

[Paige]

Was like, did you see George's curls? Like, no. Literally, get a proper blowout.

[Grace]

Straight men with a full blowout. And then writing with feather pens. It's giving the Glee blonde.

[Paige]

No, it's.

[Grace]

Then there's signatures were. I'm sorry. Like, so I've seen my brother write his own name. He looks like a fucking four year old. These guys are writing like John Hancock. That's a gay signature.

[Paige]

How do you even get that last name? That was around the time where you could pick them yourself.

[Grace]

Also, hot take only men Are allowed to go to war. It's giving golf trip. It's giving. You guys all just want to go hang out and kiss each other. And then they love their accessories when they go to war.

[Paige]

No. The colonial men were gay. Do you ever go tanning in high school, like, to a tanning bed?

[Grace]

No. What? I'm not from Jersey. I'm from New York City.

[Paige]

Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. Seriously?

[Grace]

Oh, that's why my skin looks so good.

[Paige]

Oh, my God, Hannah. That's my skin look so good into a tanning bed with a girl who literally is orange with her hair up like this, being like, do you need goggles?

[Grace]

No.

[Paige]

Tanning beds in high school were my religion, my life.

[Grace]

How often did you go?

[Paige]

We went every sing day after school. I literally got so tan one year, I was like, neon, and my mom, like, started crying. She was like, you're ruining yourself.

[Grace]

Wait. Maybe that's why people don't give me cocaine. Because I could tell that, like, I didn't do tanning beds. Maybe it's a correlation.

[Paige]

It is a tanning bed.

[Grace]

Cocaine, I thought actually give you cocaine in the tanning new reality.

[Paige]

It's a TV series. Where's your tanning place receptionist now?

[Grace]

Actually, fuck Vanderpump rules. I want to see the drama that goes on in a tanning salon a lot.

[Paige]

And you could tell. You could cut it with a knife. During prom season, you could literally cut it with a knife.

[Grace]

Would you get a sticker, like, on your lower hip?

[Paige]

I always wanted to because.

[Grace]

But you don't put a sticker on a Lamborghini.

[Paige]

But my mom would have lost her fucking mind.

[Grace]

Oh, the cancer was fine, but not the sticker.

[Paige]

Yeah, yeah. We're sort of vain household. Okay, let's not get it twisted.

[Grace]

Wait, do you think less or more of me?

[Paige]

I'm not sure. Once you give birth and you are in the state that you are in, like, this baby's just come out of you. Your stomach's still huge. I can imagine that in that moment, you know if you married the right person or not.

[Grace]

Mic drop.

[Paige]

But I wonder how many people had the thought before they got married of like, I don't know if this is the right guy. And then right when they had a baby, it was like, this is definitely not the right guy.

[Grace]

It's literally post baby clarity.

[Paige]

Yeah, you get post baby clarity.

[Grace]

You're at, like, your most vulnerable form of, like, my body just went through trauma.

[Paige]

Yep. I need someone to love me for me because I don't look the way I know myself to look and take care of me.

[Grace]

Yeah. No. Well, that's why I think when people say, oh, we were struggling so we want to have a baby to bond us closer, it apparently, like, makes it worse. But if your relationship's strong, it makes it stronger. But babies will expose the fuck out of it. Speaking of bad habits, I hung out with a straight man accidentally.

[Hannah]

Where?

[Grace]

Work stuff.

[Paige]

Okay.

[Grace]

They do this thing where, like, when they try to connect with you, they keep showing you YouTube videos. And it made me feel like an outdoor cat who brings you a dead pigeon and you go. And then you go, oh, wait, that's their love langu. Yeah.

[Paige]

Oh, they're trying to get. They're trying to cut.

[Grace]

That's them showing effect because he showed me one video and, you know, like, you get the point. After, like.

[Paige]

And it like, oh, my God, that's so funny.

[Grace]

I sat there for, like, two minutes watching it and like, oh, you watched the full. Yeah. I was like, okay, that was a one off. He really is passionate about this video. And like, 10 seconds later, he's like, oh, watch this. And I was like, oh, this is. This is a thing. This is a thing in the community. Chris, is this what you guys do? Yeah, I call it YouTube waterboarding. Wait, YouTube water.

[Paige]

What are like men?

[Grace]

That was the question. What are. What are men?

[Paige]

What are men?

[Grace]

Do you guys waterboard each other? Yeah. You guys, do you ever say, bro, I don't want to watch? Yeah. That's why I started calling it waterboarding. Because all men do is hang out and go, bro, watch this. That'll be. Yeah. There's something also about when I'm watching someone's watching me watch a video, I can't enjoy the video.

[Paige]

Me neither.

[Grace]

Just trying to explain to Ally, who's a lesbian, our relationship. We left the house, and she's like, she's your partner.

[Paige]

Yeah, no more partner. Because she was like, no, we're more than friends. Like, like, okay, like, if we were to be with another friend duo, I'd be like, cute. That's adorable.

[Grace]

We would leave and be like, they think they're fun.

[Paige]

That's so sweet of you guys to, like, be friends, but, like, we're like, partners.

[Grace]

Well, Ali was like, I loved hanging out with you guys because I love being, like, a third wheel. And I'm like, what do you mean? She's like, I love hanging out with couples. And I'm like, what do you mean? And she's like, you guys will talk your eyes all the time if you're.

[Paige]

Going to gossip with one of us. You're gossiping with both of us. But it's a safe space.

[Grace]

Yes.

[Paige]

Like, we share the same ideas.

[Grace]

She was like, you have a full partner. And I was like, I know. And I was like, I am the man one.

[Paige]

I want a man who's more involved in, like, the cooking and the cleaning. I do feel I just want a housekeeper. I just realized I want an assistant.

[Grace]

Some of these girls who have done it right, they marry chefs.

[Paige]

I just want someone who's like, I'll make school lunches.

[Grace]

I do have to say, I've dated guys in the past who have cooked, and it's been so hot and so fun. You have to trick them to be like, oh, my God, I love that salmon you made.

[Hannah]

Yeah.

[Grace]

And then they, like, get passionate about it, and then it gets part of their ego, and then they're, like, obsessed with it.

[Paige]

That's what it is. Make it a part of their ego.

[Grace]

Yes. Chris is smiling, right? And the second you make it. And I go, oh, my baby.

[Paige]

I love barbecue chicken.

[Grace]

Why? I go, my ex used to make it disgusting. Disgusting. And honestly, he had a weak wrist. Make him feel like hunters.

[Paige]

You know, there's something about British people and, like, they pull off bangs better.

[Grace]

I didn't want to say it.

[Paige]

It's more believable.

[Grace]

Like, Daisy Edgar Jones. Like, I feel like we look like.

[Paige]

Girls for, like, that's why the whole thing is like, are you okay? Like, myself included?

[Grace]

Like, but it's so funny because she's so British, but then she goes to singing and they lose the accent, which no one's ever studied that Adele has.

[Paige]

An accent, but, like, my Adele doesn't, you know, like, my Adele, in my head, she's from Queens. Right. If Adele is from America.

[Des]

Hello?

[Grace]

It's me.

[Paige]

Yes.

[Grace]

Where are you? I'd been waiting for years for you to call.

[Paige]

Wait.

[Grace]

I've been sitting watching Jeopardy all night long, and you haven't. Ring me up once, I will beat your ass.

[Paige]

Hello? I'm on the other side of West 55th. Where are you?

[Grace]

How are we not cast in anora is beyond me, and I'm jealous. Mikey Madison. You're from la, you lucky bitch. Okay.

[Paige]

I love that my Adele is from Queens.

[Grace]

That's not my Adele. Can you tell by the year when we're allowed to get divorced? 1969.

[Paige]

1969.

[Grace]

That's fucking crazy, because that's, like, when our moms were born. Ick. Got so popular because we literally weren't allowed to have icks before?

[Paige]

No, we couldn't say it.

[Grace]

Like, he'd be like, singing in a restaurant, happy birthday to another table. And you'd be like, well, I literally can't get a divorce. So, like, la la. Where now, like, he comes in with flip flops and you go, divorce, motherfucker.

[Paige]

We've made a whole career on talking about icks and the things we hate about men. A whole career, literally.

[Grace]

I just got tagged in something of me being like, I hate if he's bad at bowling and you hate if he's good at bowling. And I was like, oh, no. Did I ever tell you what my nickname was? Like high school into college?

[Paige]

No.

[Grace]

Quadzilla.

[Paige]

Which I'd quite literally dig my own grave.

[Grace]

That's why I'm funny. Literally, like, hot guys would be like, sup, quadzilla? I couldn't tell if, like, they thought my legs were, like, cute or not. I don't. Men look at me like a horse. They, like, check my teeth.

[Paige]

Why are men always trying to, like, treat you like they're breeding with you?

[Grace]

And they're like, what's your vert? What? They're like, do you want to race? Division one babies were, like, a topic.

[Paige]

Okay.

[Grace]

And then they'd see me. Yeah, they just smell a Nike sponsorship for their child, like, immediately, like, yeah, you could vote the sorority girl. You can't fucking walk in a straight line. Or I could fucking throw a football 100 yards. Do you want your child to dunk right with these calves?

[Paige]

No one's ever come up to me and said, hey, our kids might be athletic. If anything, they're like, I think you'll have a gay son.

[Grace]

Gay son who, let's just say, could palm a basketball with your fingers. One thing about me, I'll talk about.

[Paige]

My unborn gay son. Because you're fabulous. Even eye twitch, which means a man is about to die soon. Oh, no. It's that time of year. I have to sacrifice a man. No, truly. I've had this eye drop for, like, four days.

[Grace]

Because you also think everyone's, like, staring at it.

[Paige]

I don't even think that everyone's staring at it. I'm just like, what is it, your.

[Grace]

Bigger eye or your smaller eye? It's your bigger eye. Why did I even ask.

[Paige]

Up question?

[Grace]

I don't know. Check your cornea.

[Paige]

No, it's just, like, I think stress back to me.

[Grace]

I went to a couple public gatherings, and I, like, forgot the best way to Irish exit. I knew you were gonna. And I actually just needed Some advice? Yeah. We're in a conversation. And what are you gonna do?

[Paige]

I'm gonna run to the bathroom really quick. I'll be right back. Which bathroom? I didn't specify. I meant the one in my apartment, not the one here. That's crazy. I'm going home. It's none of my business what you thought I meant.

[Grace]

Don't project your ideals onto me.

[Paige]

Oh, you got the one here.

[Grace]

My favorite thing. I'll call an Uber. Someone always starts talking to me, like, right when the Uber's there. And I love to pretend the Uber is, like, completely out of my control, like, being like, I would love to stay, but the Uber.

[Paige]

You're like, the app is actually locked.

[Grace]

That's crazy. Stop it. The Uber needs me, and I would love to cancel it, but my thumb doesn't work.

[Paige]

You're like, he's on his way. If I cancel now, what message will that say to him?

[Grace]

He's gonna. He'll be very mad at me, and I don't need that.

[Paige]

Here's where it can get dicey. You say you're going to the bathroom.

[Hannah]

They.

[Paige]

Someone sees you leaving out the door, and they're like, where are you going? Making a quick phone call. Can't do it in here. Just running outside to make a quick phone call. Didn't tell you? It's to my Uber driver to let him know where precisely I'm standing. No, no, I just thought the call.

[Grace]

Call with someone else.

[Paige]

Wait.

[Grace]

You're a genius.

[Paige]

Yeah, I love getting out of. There's nothing I love more than saying bye. I love when one of my gays goes, you know what? Never liked her. And I'm like, you never said anything. And you never said anything. When you get one of my gays.

[Grace]

Going, it's get a gay going.

[Paige]

Do one thing for your day and get a gay going. Because gag.

[Grace]

Get a gay going. Get a gay going and let them tell you what it is.

[Paige]

No, let them break it down for.

[Grace]

You because it's gagged.

[Paige]

Like, get a gag going.

[Grace]

Wait, maybe that's the segment we just bring on a gay and let them go. It's just straight guys. They don't know that we're calling them gay. Time for our gag segment. What are you gagged about.

[Paige]

Hannah? We brought in a bunch of straight men saying it was like, one of our segments, but really don't tell them.

[Grace]

And we say, what's something you're passionate about?

[Paige]

Yeah, something that, like, really gets you going. What is that? The last night when I'm at The Giants game. Sitting there, I'm watching the game, I'm eating my snacks. And at one point I go, that is adorable. My brother is sitting next to me and he goes, what? Let's just break it down for a minute. This is musical theater, okay? You have to remember the plays. Sorry, that's memorizing lines.

[Grace]

That's choreography.

[Paige]

That's choreography.

[Grace]

When they go 5, 6, 7, 8.

[Paige]

And then all putting the same outfit on. Sorry, that's a costume. And then they're all going out there, they know what they have to do. And then they're performing and I think it's adorable.

[Grace]

Also.

[Paige]

Take one look around that stadium. 85,000 people. I go, male loneliness epidemic.

[Des]

Where?

[Grace]

Where the.

[Paige]

What the fuck are you talking about?

[Grace]

Singing the same song.

[Paige]

It's stacked here. There's so many men high fiving each other, they don't know each other. Just like having the best hugging, crying.

[Grace]

No.

[Paige]

At one point I literally go, just kiss.

[Grace]

At the end of the game, if a player like likes another player, he goes up to them and says, can we trade jerseys? And then they take each other's jerseys off, they undress and they swap jerseys. And then you walk out and you're like, it smells like you. No, guys definitely pick the point based on the guy. What do you mean by. Would you ever like not click on one? Cuz a guy looks the type of way. Yeah, yeah, Yep. And sometimes they're like, I like that one. It's funny, you know, Cuz I pick a girl, I want her to look.

[Paige]

Based on what I like her to look like. Men aren't even in my porn algorithm.

[Grace]

That's not crazy. I don't want to having sex. That's disgusting.

[Paige]

That's disgusting. It's disgusting.

[Grace]

So like they ruined the porn. They're so embarrassed for them because it's so easy to get the ick from guys from porn. Like them even being like, yeah, I'm like, I'm out. Yeah, like him going, oh yeah, I'm out.

[Paige]

We don't talk about this enough either. Like I could in my head picture like four porn girls that like I've seen in the past 15 years that like you just always see gorgeous, stunning. I couldn't picture one good looking guy porn star. Like I don't think I've ever come across one.

[Grace]

I know.

[Paige]

I also don't look for them so they could be out there. I'm just not seeing it.

[Grace]

It's none of my business.

[Paige]

Anyway. We digress.

[Grace]

We digress. Therapist update. I've Been doing edmr? No, it's emdr. EDM is a festival.

[Paige]

Yeah. EDM is a genre of music.

[Grace]

It's really good. What is that? So basically, it sucks if you're, like, having a good day, and then you have to do it because you're having a good day.

[Paige]

Wait, nobody talks about that. There have been so many times where I'm like, okay, but what if therapy is the problem?

[Grace]

What if actually you've been putting in a bad mood and be like, wow, life is worth living. And then I'm like, oh, fuck, I have therapy. Yeah. And you get in and she's like, okay. In fact, it's not. Let's go back to the worst time you ever had in your life where you think shattered all your hopes and dreams.

[Paige]

The turning point, if you will.

[Grace]

Let's go to your villain origin story.

[Paige]

I hate a pattern. Like, your sweater right now is, like, actually making me nauseous. Like, what in the Blu Ray DVD screen saver is this goddamn cardigan. I've been literally wanting to ask since we sat down. Where did you find this cardigan?

[Grace]

It's vintage Missoni.

[Paige]

Oh, is it?

[Grace]

Okay, can you apologize to Missoni?

[Paige]

I can't apologize to them.

[Grace]

I don't like patterns either. Unless it's a sweater.

[Paige]

This looks like if you put on 3D glasses, it would do something cool.

[Grace]

This looks like right when you're about to throw up. What? You see, this looks like third tequila shot. When you start to fall. When a guy tries to kiss you and you don't know what he looks like, this is what you see.

[Paige]

Wait, I know what your sweater looks like. It's been driving me nuts the whole time.

[Grace]

Wait, I know what it looks like. What are you gonna say?

[Paige]

Who is that Halloween character that's like the Menace Child? Don't they wear, like, blue and red?

[Grace]

Chucky. Chucky, can you. Oh, yeah. Cause I have red hair.

[Paige]

My God. It was literally driving me nuts.

[Grace]

I never can tell when my friends are on drugs, but, like, do they.

[Paige]

Wait, just pause. Pause. Because that's actually one of my favorite things about you, is to be out with you and for you to watch other people be on drugs.

[Grace]

As someone who's seen this happen to me, can you just tell me for real right now? Do they talk beforehand and say, don't tell Hannah, or do they think I'm already high because I'm, like, energetic?

[Paige]

You don't give off the vibe that you would be into it. So it's, like, a waste of a conversation to even know, that's like, that.

[Grace]

One guy who, like.

[Paige]

Hannah, you cried last time you smoked weed.

[Grace]

I know, but not everyone knows my history. No one's even offered me a sig. Not even a drunk sig. Do I give snitch energy? Do I have snitch face?

[Paige]

You're giving narc.

[Grace]

Do I look like an undercover cop? But also, like, I've been at parties where people don't know that I cry over weed. That, like, they all just disappear in the bathroom, and I'm sitting outside, and they're all in the bathroom, and I'm like, someone has a stomachache. And then they come out, and I'm like, is everyone okay? And they're like, yeah. And then they're, like, dancing and, like, no one ran it by me. And to the gyno. For the first time in, like, a long time, when your pussy is this little, you don't have to get it checked up because it's, like, not even.

[Paige]

Can even go in.

[Grace]

It's literally not even there. You can't even find it. I got a pap. It was quick. Was it? Being a girl is crazy. Crazy, like, they just shove something in you. And I was like, I'm crazy. I wasn't in the mood for it.

[Paige]

Is that like, it's 2025, and they're still, like. They still crank it, you know? Like. Like, you would think the technology.

[Grace]

No, it looks like a medieval torture device.

[Paige]

One of the craziest things ever. And they're like, oh, hey, no problem. We're just gonna stuff this up.

[Grace]

You're like, stainless steel duck beak.

[Paige]

No.

[Grace]

No lube.

[Paige]

None at all. And then they're just like, this won't. This won't hurt. Like, that's crazy. Yeah, crazy. You love me, but you don't want to be me. Like, things about me disgust you. Like, you would never want to be me, but you love that I'm me.

[Grace]

Yes.

[Paige]

And that's what it is. Like, I don't want to be you at all.

[Grace]

We both feel literally disgusting.

[Paige]

Like, we'll do something. You'll be like, in your mind. I know. You're like, I would fucking never. She's so dumb.

[Grace]

When my mom tried to dress me in, like, dresses with a matching hat, I was like, burn me at the stake. Like, I'd rather kill myself than be dressed in this matching set. And then you show up in a matching set, and I'm like, wait, I love that for you.

[Paige]

Yeah.

[Des]

Yeah.

[Grace]

Well, that's why it works. Yeah.

[Paige]

That's why we're in such a good relationship, and I think that's what you have to find in a partner, because there's too many people out here marrying their biggest off, and it's really like, they just want to be. They wish they had your life. They want to be you.

[Grace]

Have you wanted to get your nipple pierced before?

[Paige]

Did you see the newsletter when I put them nipple covers in that are pierced?

[Grace]

Yeah, Grayson, I freaked out.

[Paige]

Neither of you guys brought it up.

[Grace]

Yeah, because we were scared. She goes, did you see what page? I go, yeah, I saw you in the newsletter. And she goes, should we say something? I'm like, I don't know. I think we just. Because it was rage bait. It was rage bait. I'm not like, I thought you guys were. I was having a day, and then I saw that, and I said, I don't need this right now. I said, she's mocking me. She's coming for me in some way. Why is that coming for you? You know, it's just like, you know, I don't need that. I would never get my nipples pierced.

[Paige]

I looked into it for a while.

[Grace]

Your mom. Your poor mom, like, she's. She's making a rosary. She's like.

[Paige]

She's like, where did I go wrong?

[Grace]

I have a fear that you are everyone's dream child.

[Paige]

You had a fear of what you were gonna get, like, an infection?

[Grace]

No, I have a fear that I'd be paralyzed. Oh, my God. That's so crazy. But I thought that, like, your nipple would lose feeling.

[Paige]

Oh, that can happen. Yeah, that actually can happen.

[Hannah]

I'm going to like it's hard.

[Paige]

Harvard Law? No, just. Just regular Harvard.

[Grace]

Okay.

[Paige]

And speaking to their one of their business classes.

[Grace]

Wait, you're going to get an honorary degree?

[Paige]

Hopefully. Because currently I don't have one.

[Grace]

You're an Inspiration to people who can't read.

[Paige]

Thank you.

[Grace]

I've gotten a couple messages of people have been like, hey, I know you like making fun of Paige for not being able to read or write your spell, but it actually comes off mean. And I go, she told me she can't read. I'm literally just repeating what she said to me.

[Paige]

Never in our almost 10 year of friendship have you ever said anything to me where I've been, like, harsh, like, ever. Like, me hurt my feelings because it's most of the time accurate. I was like, sorry, telling the truth is not a crime.

[Grace]

Also, this means I came up with something to try to make you giggle.

[Paige]

And also, it's funny.

[Grace]

And also, you're a New York Times bestseller.

[Paige]

Go to the set. I'm in hair and makeup. I'm like, wow, it's a scorcher out there. I go to someone and I'm like, oh, do you know what the other thing is that I have to film this week? And they're like, no, this is it. And I look at them and I go, no, no, this isn't the outfit that I picked for, like, what I'm doing in the house. I'm like, oh, okay.

[Grace]

But in my head, you start spiraling.

[Paige]

And in my head, I'm like, I've already worn this before. I'm gonna get fucking torn apart online. They're gon, Lizzie McGuire, you're a fudgeing outfit repeater. Which they did. They were all over my Instagram being like, I think she wore that before. And now all of a sudden, no one's sustainable.

[Grace]

Whatever happened to sustainable fashion?

[Paige]

The sun starts beating down on me pretty aggressively. And I'd say we're about two hours into filming, and I'm, like, standing there, and I'm in a full suede skirt.

[Grace]

You were wearing a suede turtleneck skirt.

[Paige]

And I'm like, you know what, guys, real quick. Feeling a bit. Feeling a bit queasy. Let me take a minute to myself. I throw up. Everyone's like. They're like, are you okay? And I'm like, yeah, like, totally put me back in coach. Like, I can do this. I just had to get that out of my system. It's something I do.

[Grace]

A little bug. It was from the biscotti.

[Paige]

I get back out there, and I'm swaying a little bit. You know, I'm like. I'm like, you know, I'm not feeling totally normal. I have, like, an ear piecing so someone can hear me talking.

[Hannah]

And I.

[Paige]

And I literally just go I'm going to need another minute. I'm going down. I'm literally. I'm going down, and you guys can come down with me. I'm using the mic like a walkie talkie. I'm like, we got what we need. They're like, no, we didn't. Paige, you still have more lines.

[Grace]

I'm like, we're good to wrap this up right now.

[Paige]

Thank you, Craft services. They're like, no, no, we're not done.

[Grace]

That's a brap on production. Thank you so much for the day.

[Paige]

You guys have been amazing.

[Grace]

Everyone, hands together for the cast and the crew. You go, this season's a wrap. I think we got to the point we all want to each other. Let's go. Thank you for the villa. Okay, got to go.

[Paige]

I literally sit down, pass out. I'm like, guys, I'm so sorry, but, like, I just don't think I can finish it.

[Grace]

You didn't want to croak in Fiji wearing that outfit.

[Paige]

Not only am I not in the goddamn outfit.

[Grace]

Outfit picked out.

[Paige]

You think I'm gonna go to a hospital in Fiji, have something happen to me? And this is my final outfit? Like, no, you got me up. Did I ruin the show? Is everyone mad at me? Like, are you guys gonna sue me or you're never gonna have me back?

[Grace]

They were like, the season can't go on.

[Paige]

It was like, one of those things where, you know, you're like, something happens to you, or, like. Like, you're insecure about something, and you're.

[Hannah]

Like, honestly, no one's gonna notice.

[Paige]

And then you see your friend, and it's like the first thing they say.

[Grace]

Yes.

[Paige]

I was like, no. They're gonna make it seem like I was still standing there. No one's gonna see it. And it's like, where'd that girl go in the dumb outfit? Classic Paige. She's so lazy. I was a rotisserie chicken in there, but again, I'm in full cowhide. I was an animal out there.

[Grace]

I. You're a buffalo.

[Paige]

I'm like, guys, I'm. I'm at a loss of breath. I can't see well. And they're like, ask him if he's hard. I'm like, guys, right now, do you.

[Grace]

Think purple lettuce thinks it's better than other lettuces? Let us. I.

[Paige]

Yes. Because when I'm eating purple lettuce or.

[Grace]

A colored carrot, you stop and you go, you're gorgeous.

[Paige]

If I have a tricolored carrot on.

[Grace]

My plate, your tax bracket has Changed.

[Paige]

My tax bracket has changed. I know more languages than you do.

[Grace]

I feel like the purple lettuce knows. And it's always curly in a way where it's just. You could put it on a dress and it always comes out of nowhere. You're gnawing on your rabbit food and then you're like, who is she?

[Paige]

Are you just talking about cabbage?

[Grace]

I don't know enough about the lettuce species to be able to. What is the perfect. I don't. Look, I'm starting this new thing. I tried to eat salads last week. It didn't work.

[Hannah]

What?

[Grace]

I'm trying to be healthy before I.

[Paige]

Go on tourizing that. Are you sticking to the rule on tour where there's no eating after at 11:00pm no. Oh, you haven't stuck to it. Funny, because last year we had to stick to it.

[Grace]

Yep.

[Paige]

Because, well, last year you tried to put me in a caloric deficit and I was famished. And this year you're willy nilly just ordering whatever. Don't know what town you're even in. You're so stuffed.

[Grace]

I did get a really good Mexican bowl. I dermaplaned.

[Des]

Did you?

[Grace]

I've never felt so shiny. Yeah. Like I felt like a baby dolphin.

[Paige]

Do you like it?

[Grace]

I kind of like a little fur to keep me warm.

[Paige]

I've never looked at you and been like, you have hair on your face.

[Grace]

You've also never looked at me. That's true.

[Paige]

I only look through you.

[Grace]

I've never really been on. Normally you see one thing and you go, oh. And then you're like, back to me.

[Paige]

My mom always makes a joke where she's like, don't let Paige look at you too long. She'll tell you what you have to fix. And I'm like, don't let me in the room.

[Grace]

I love constructive criticism. You know that I'm very coachable. Yeah.

[Paige]

Sorry if I don't tell you, who's gonna tell you? If I see my mom and I'm like, hey, let's switch up this hairstyle or let's change these boots or something.

[Grace]

Wait.

[Paige]

I would want someone to tell me.

[Grace]

I feel like Mom's hairstyles are so important to them. Yeah. And telling them to switch up a hairstyle is like, that's like you have to sit them down. Yeah. Like, that's like having an intervention. Especially some of these moms who've had the same one since 1982. Yeah. During stifling times. Is that a crazy strife? Way to describe it. What A strife will mean. Chris, what does strife will mean?

[Paige]

Strifling times.

[Grace]

It's not. Not a real word. First of all, Urban dictionary.

[Paige]

Stifling. You're talking about stifling.

[Grace]

Stifling. Urban dictionary says a combination of the words strife and trifle. Strife meaning difficulty. Trifle meaning not really very important.

[Paige]

So maybe not.

[Grace]

Definitely not strifling.

[Paige]

Definitely not.

[Grace]

Wait. Strifling is my life, though. Not important.

[Paige]

No, I've been strifling. No, I'm not kidding. I've been trifling for, like, two weeks now.

[Grace]

I'm not. Okay, we normalize. Strife.

[Paige]

The origin is Italian, and if you use it in a sentence, being really.

[Grace]

Upset about things that don't matter. Yeah, everyone knows football is gay.

[Paige]

After the game, what do they do together?

[Hannah]

Shower.

[Paige]

I've heard multiple men football players are not saying. It's team bonding. I'm sorry. I never team bonded with a friend naked.

[Grace]

The closest me and you have been to being naked in the same room together is when I'm pooping and you happen to be trying to do your makeup in the same room.

[Paige]

Yeah, and it's against my will. I know for a fact. I was in there first. I know for a fact. And then you had a chimichanga. Okay, so let's not even act like it was just us bonding. It was you having a serious problem.

[Grace]

Also an emergency.

[Paige]

That's medical. That's just medical. I'm your emergency contact. Wait, have you ever gone through a phone?

[Grace]

This is so embarrassing. I've never gone through a phone.

[Paige]

It's not embarrassing. That's probably, like, the right way to.

[Grace]

Be back in the day.

[Paige]

You, like, respect privacy.

[Grace]

I don't respect privacy. I just respect like.

[Paige]

Or, like, if you're dating me. Sorry. You live in Russia.

[Grace]

It's my rules.

[Paige]

There's zero privacy. Any money you make has to go immediately to me.

[Grace]

I think it's cause, like, you kind of like the drama a little more than me A little.

[Paige]

I love it. I thrive on it.

[Grace]

I really want to be like, I.

[Paige]

Go looking for problems. I've cracked iPhones. I've cracked iPads. I've gotten computer passwords. I've blocked people from other people's phones. Like, I've done it all. My favorite thing, though, would be when people. When men would be like, you don't respect my privacy. I'm like, and you don't respect my vagina. Like, what are we talking about here? What are you, the FBI? And this is. I'm leaking your data. Shut Up. No, I don't respect your privacy.

[Grace]

Saying you don't respect me cheating. And it's like, yeah, I don't respect you cheating.

[Paige]

Yeah, and be better at it. Like, why get out of my uber? I'm like, 15 minutes early. So I'm looking at my phone to, like, see what time it is, and I just hear someone say, heads up. I turn. I literally get turned around because all of the sudden charging at me is 30 people in a fucking run club. Okay? I literally audibly go, what the fuck is this?

[Grace]

You got shot.

[Paige]

I literally was. I was assaulted. I was burglarized. I was thrown on the street. Like, I literally turned with the motion of them.

[Grace]

Like, they just took you with them. Next you know, you're running. I didn't sign up for this.

[Paige]

I'm like, I have a facial. I'm immediately angered because I'm like, fuck you guys. Who the fuck is getting.

[Grace]

There should be signs. Like, you know, it says no biking on the sidewalk. No running on the sidewalk.

[Paige]

I was like, is this what's happening before 10am on a Saturday morning? You've gone rogue. You've taken over the city.

[Grace]

City.

[Paige]

It's Gotham City here. Now I realize high school team, high school track team.

[Grace]

Oh, they're just trying to run.

[Paige]

And so I was like, you know what? I take back everything.

[Grace]

They're chasing their dreams.

[Paige]

You guys get your exercise.

[Grace]

What happened to after school activity? It's after school activities.

[Paige]

No, I couldn't even believe extracurricular, something like that to happen.

[Grace]

You know, it's not pronounced dachshunds. Apparently, it's dachshunds.

[Paige]

Sorry, hold on.

[Grace]

This is above our pay grade.

[Paige]

This is not a bit, but genuinely, can you spell it?

[Grace]

D, A, S, C, H, O, U, N, D, S. Along those lines. Like, close to that.

[Paige]

My brain immediately went to Szechuan chicken.

[Grace]

I thought dachshund was a whole separate breed. Same, isn't it? There was Connor and Cupid and Doxxer and Blitzen, Donner and Blitzen.

[Paige]

What did they have to do with this?

[Grace]

I thought that was one of the dachshunds. I'm DJ Dachshund.

[Paige]

But, like, late night people call you DJ Dachshund.

[Grace]

Once I have a dirty chai latte. I'm DJ Dach.

[Paige]

Like, you start your set as DJ Dash Hound, and then it gets like.

[Grace]

DJ Dashboard when the beat drops.

[Paige]

DJ Dawson. Wait, I'm obsessed. I'm asking this because I want to know, from the girls that have frozen their eggs, my boobs huge Massive. I've never had bigger boobs in my life. I'm so excited.

[Grace]

I, not a doctor, think that you actually needed estrogen and your body's just like responding really well to it. Do you feel different in other ways? Have you been nicer to people?

[Des]

No, no.

[Paige]

I've been like, more emotional a little bit. But not like overly emotional.

[Grace]

Well, like, appropriate for a circumstance. Like, not like numb.

[Paige]

Yes. Not like Stone cold Steve Austin appropriate for a circumstance.

[Grace]

Yeah. You're reacting as you should have in the past.

[Paige]

Sometimes have a reaction and I'll think in my head, yeah, that's a normal person. Keep doing.

[Grace]

Wait, this is Paige. What would a normal person do if my best friend's died?

[Paige]

Well, there's so many times where people expect you to be like, aww. And my immediate reaction is like, okay, get over it.

[Grace]

That's when people are like, can Paige act? I'm like, yes.

[Paige]

Yeah. Do you know how many times I've had to pretend to care about a lot of things Oscar worthy?

[Grace]

I don't give a fuck. Literal Oscar.

[Paige]

I'm never joining a religion that limits my drink and not even alcohol. Like, I'm sorry, I can't have a Diet Coke.

[Hannah]

Fuck off.

[Grace]

But they can do Adderall. Can they do Betas?

[Paige]

There's definitely some Mormons.

[Grace]

My thing is they just like get around whatever the old school rules are.

[Paige]

They were also talking about this whole thing where, like, if you were divorced, you're still bound to your ex husband for the rest of your let through. Oh, my God. Come on, we got real world problems happening.

[Grace]

Let's talk about the here and now.

[Paige]

When he dies, who was he crosses my desk. We'll figure it out. But like right now, how did the.

[Grace]

Men who are dead have more power than women who are alive? Period?

[Hannah]

Oh.

[Paige]

Oh my God.

[Grace]

Period.

[Paige]

That is so. Where'd you hear that?

[Grace]

Marilyn Monroe. Oh, I'm just kidding. My new thing is quoting everything and saying Mel Monroe. I do have to say, forever vain you are. You haven't gotten a facelift yet. And you know, Kris Jenner's been looking good.

[Paige]

What is that facelift I'm getting that? I would love to inject myself with some shit. Yeah, I'm too scared about doing the research of who I should go to because I genuinely don't trust anyone.

[Grace]

Do you know who you can trust? God. Yep. And God made you perfectly. Imagine if God makes mistakes.

[Paige]

Turned into like a religious podcast.

[Grace]

A faith based podcast. And that is why in 1113, Mezadaya said, go across the water and get the fish. And when you question, how do I get that fish? You get that fish. Because that's what I'm Southern, though.

[Paige]

We could have been religious without being Southern.

[Grace]

I don't think it goes that way. I don't think. I think you go full Joel Olsteen.

[Paige]

If you're quoting scripture, you better have a twang.

[Grace]

I was offered mdma.

[Paige]

Yeah.

[Grace]

Do I feel cool about it? Yeah.

[Paige]

Wait. Hannah calls me after she goes to this party, and she would not stop saying mdma. And after the fifth time, I was like, it's Molly. Stop saying mdma. I'm gonna have a freak out.

[Grace]

I go, since when is MDMA Molly? You woman in style.

[Paige]

Since forever.

[Grace]

I wasn't gonna say yes, but I pretended I was considering it. Like, I'm like, you know, I normally would.

[Paige]

Because I wanted to Saturday night, and I can't.

[Grace]

It literally totally time where you could do it.

[Paige]

There was ever a time. It was in that moment, and then.

[Grace]

People were like, we're micro dosing. And I'm like, okay. Like, regardless what dose, I would ruin the party. I would never work in this town again.

[Paige]

I actually feel like you wouldn't micro dose because you're an all or nothing girl, you know? So you're like, if I'm going to do it, let's become drug addict.

[Grace]

Well, that's why weed fucks me up. Because everyone's like, just take a little hit and I take a little hit, don't feel anything. Take the biggest hit I've ever taken in my life. Can't breathe for. Yeah, for an hour. And then.

[Paige]

And then you find yourself on the bathroom floor and you're like, I think I'm having a panic attack.

[Grace]

Exactly. Just, like, staring at my fingernails for way too long.

[Paige]

I think maybe I was in, like, seventh or eighth grade and something happened for the first time ever, like, with a boy. And I remember my mom saying to me, paige, I need you to understand that this is a man's world.

[Hannah]

Okay?

[Paige]

It's a man's world. So you need to always be smarter, quicker. Like, thinking on your feet, like you're gonna get over in situations that you shouldn't just because you're a woman. And I feel like that always stuck in the back of my head. And I think people get so mad at me because I move like a guy. I've always moved in the world like a guy. I will ghost the out of you. I don't give a shit. I like, will take your job. I'm not the Kind of crazy where it's like, I need to get back at you. It's, I'll get, I'll take your job and become your boss and then I'll fire you. Yeah, like, that's my kind of crazy.

[Grace]

Are Gen Z's playing flip cup? I probably haven't played flip cup in like three, four years.

[Paige]

So no one's competitive. You'll never get ahead in this world.

[Grace]

When I was 26, there were bars just for, for beer pong. We weren't there to drink. We were there to compete. We were there to, like, live our dreams. This is when the world started to turn for the worst. When people started filling their beer pong cups with water and, and just drinking the beer. No, that's why Covet happened, because we.

[Paige]

Didn'T have the, the antibodies.

[Grace]

The antibodies of when a ball rolls and gets kicked across the entire bar and then you take it and you throw it in a beer and that person chugs it. That's why we were able to find face like germs. I have to say, when a guy is good at flip cup, I'm like, it's the hottest thing ever. When a guy's bad at flip cup, I'm like, you would, you would finger.

[Paige]

My thigh in your 20s. If someone was playing beer pong and they weren't good at it, I'd be like, that's so. I'm like, you probably like the father of my children. I hate sleeping in bed with men. I don't know what it is because, like, I can fall asleep on the couch with them, but once it comes to, like, getting in the bed and like falling asleep, I'm like, no, I.

[Hannah]

Have to be alone.

[Paige]

Like, I have to hang out with myself more.

[Grace]

Well, it doesn't make sense. Like, we all have roommates, right? And then you get to the point where you try to not have a roommate, but then when you meet a guy, now you're forced to have a roommate, right? But this roommate literally takes up half the bed and is hot and is breathing in your fucking nose.

[Paige]

Yeah. I'm like, and now I can't watch a TV show and, like, also have my phone on when it's like 3am because you have to sleep.

[Grace]

Understand intimacy. I understand. Sometimes I understand quality time. Yeah. When you're both asleep, like, is that really intimacy? I need sleeping in separate beds, I honestly think is great.

[Paige]

I need my own bedroom. And I'm so down to start the night with you and then like, start the morning with you. But what I do in the in between is, like, none of your business.

[Grace]

You're starting a business. You're running numbers. You're looking up past exes. Exes, Exes. Girlfriends. You have stuff to do. During the night, I saw a TikTok.

[Paige]

That was like, I still stalk my ex's eggs, even though we broke up. But she's part of my routine.

[Grace]

Wait. Your comfort stock.

[Paige]

Your comfort stock.

[Grace]

Your comfort stock. Where, like, when you watch them, it kind of makes your day. Yeah. Someone said, you know, you're a kid and you have to sharpen your pencil. Yeah. So you'd get up to the garbage and you just, like, sharpen it, and it feels kind of nice. And you'd also get to, like. That's a version of a cigarette break.

[Paige]

As a kid, I was the queen of taking a break. The pencil sharpener wasn't enough for me. I was like, oh, still too stimulating. You guys are all here. I was at the nurse's office. The nurse knew me. Okay. I'd walk into the nurse's office, and she'd say, what is it today, Paige? I'd say, well, I don't know.

[Grace]

We walk into the green light.

[Paige]

Tingle in my throat. Better call my mommy.

[Grace]

I feel like my path. Life with my children. Daddy cholera is coming forward today.

[Paige]

No. I'd literally go to the nurse's office, and the nurse would say, why don't we just call your mom, talk to her for a few minutes and see how you feel? And I'd be like, that sounds nice. I needed, like, a midday pep talk. Okay. It's hard out here.

[Grace]

So real. So real.

[Paige]

Let kids call their mom during school. What was the harm in it?

[Grace]

It should be like a jail where they have a rope of telephone. You're getting a call from PS321 during the middle of the day. Mom, I can't do it anymore. This place, it's a prison.

[Hannah]

[Grace]

Oh my gosh.

[Paige]

There's a question on the consent form that's like, okay, and if anything happens to you, what would you like us to do with your eggs? So the options are like discard them, scramble. If you're married, do you want to give them to your spouse?

[Grace]

Like, oh I hate these like future questions. No, like I literally have for breakfast.

[Paige]

How many years you want us to like free have them for? But I was like, wait, I don't know. Part of me was like, well I wouldn't want a child walking around and them not having me. Like that's crazy.

[Grace]

I'd be like why do I have these weird mental demons and my mom can't explain Them to me. Right.

[Paige]

But also, I'm like, if I had a sister. Sister.

[Grace]

Yeah.

[Paige]

And she. And say she couldn't get pregnant, I would want her to have mine.

[Grace]

What if your brother's wife can't get pregnant?

[Paige]

Well, that would be incest. My brother's sperm. So highly illegal.

[Grace]

Literally spent three days in Alabama.

[Paige]

Well, gosh darn a page. Give it to your brother. He'll have a baby with it. Like, nope. Super, super illegal. Could not do that. Could not give my brother's wife my eggs. I feel like as I get older, I am Simon Cowell. Like, I hate everything. I'm, like, disgusted by so many people I know.

[Grace]

Do you know there's an actual thing of. You don't. Of people don't get enjoyment from anything. Like, there's a word for it.

[Paige]

I have it.

[Grace]

They said if it happens for an elongated period of time, it can be depression.

[Paige]

What's a long. What's a long period of time? No, it's not that. I hate everything. I'm unimpressed.

[Des]

Yes.

[Paige]

Not to quote your best friend, who. I'm sorry, people aren't talking about this enough. I'm not in competition with people. I don't feel inspired by that. Did you hear her say that? That quote alone. I'm sorry. It's my new personality.

[Grace]

It was beautiful.

[Paige]

I'm not in competition with people I don't feel inspired by. And I think my problem is I'm unimpressed by things that I'm just like, I don't care. I have to say something. And nobody knows.

[Grace]

Can I guess?

[Paige]

Yeah.

[Grace]

You got Botox? Yeah. You guys, this has never happened in the history of Giggly.

[Paige]

Squatch 6, now's your time to shine.

[Grace]

She froze her eggs, and then she froze her face.

[Paige]

Okay? So she goes, I've been watching you talk, so I can tell how your face already moves. And I'm. And I can already tell you that I wouldn't even give you a full amount that I can't transplant. Yeah. Like your face. You don't have to.

[Grace]

I can use some of the face. We'll keep some of it.

[Paige]

Obviously, I brought up my orbital bone. And she goes, it's more noticeable to you than it is to the average person. I go, have you seen the Internet? Heard of Giggly Squad? I'm happy I even lasted this long. Botox has been being pushed to me.

[Hannah]

Since I was eight years old.

[Grace]

Eight years old.

[Paige]

I mean, have you. Yeah. Were you alive?

[Grace]

Congratulate Paige on her popping her Botox cherry. Her new Face. If she looks different, don't tell her. Just be like, you look the same.

[Paige]

No, literally, don't tell me.

[Grace]

You really do look amazing. You just look awake.

[Paige]

Yeah.

[Grace]

Which, honestly, we've never looked like. What's it like being awake right now?

[Paige]

My whole brand has now changed.

[Grace]

Yeah. Oh, my God. You have to change Daphne completely to, like, running wear. She goes, we're doing marathons and. Daphne, now. Can I call you out for a second?

[Paige]

Fine.

[Grace]

Paige calls me, and she's, like, really focused, talking about something, but it sounds like she's in a. In a car wash.

[Paige]

This is my last minute on the phone. You've got to listen to me.

[Grace]

So she's rambling, and I go, hold on. Are you in a rainforest?

[Paige]

Yeah.

[Grace]

And then instead of being, like, explaining herself, she goes, what? And then I'm like, oh, maybe she's on speaker. You know, sometimes on speaker, it's weird. She. You make me feel like I'm crazy. You go, what? What? And I go, it sounds insane. And she goes, yeah, I'm in the shower anyway. And I'm like, okay. You could have prefaced it with being like, hey, sorry, I'm underwater right now. Yeah, but you made me feel like I was crazy for being like, you're drowning.

[Paige]

I get some of my best work done in there.

[Grace]

By the way. She has FaceTimed me in the shower as well. Totally. I know her full routine.

[Paige]

Any call I've had to make through that day, that's not, like. Like, super important, but, like, I have to tell you something. I have to talk to you. I don't have any other time during the day. You're gonna call in my shower?

[Grace]

There's another life where you live, like, in Kansas, and you are the it girl of real estate. Like, every single bench in that town has my pencil. And you're wearing a power suit. The best like, no one's ever seen. Your glam is incredible. No one's ever seen you without full glam.

[Paige]

They call me Penthouse Paige.

[Grace]

And there's no penthouses in Kansas.

[Paige]

That's really sexual. I like, that's. That actually sounds like my only fans page. I take that back.

[Grace]

And you don't actually make eye contact with any of your clients.

[Paige]

But I've thought about real estate, and you know what knocks me down every time I'm not doing math in my adult age. I've moved on. I'm past that.

[Grace]

Do you have to do math?

[Paige]

You have to know square footage. And, like, you have to know, like, there is numbers, and I'm like, actually, no.

[Grace]

Did you watch selling Sunset?

[Hannah]

Not really.

[Grace]

It was a lot of like them getting out of the Yukon SUV slowly.

[Paige]

It's a lot of arrivals and departures.

[Grace]

It's a lot of just arrivals and leaving.

[Paige]

There's nothing Netflix reality shows love more.

[Grace]

Than arrivals and a non copyrighted music background.

[Paige]

A strut. She's sexy. She's a strutsy one.

[Grace]

Yeah. She sex sexy.

[Paige]

No, Netflix will gets hard for a slow strut.

[Hannah]

I tell you something, Cartoon Network.

[Paige]

Not for me.

[Grace]

I'm gonna say Cartoon Network is so Hannah coded.

[Paige]

Yeah, it's not page coded.

[Grace]

Ed. Ed and Eddie, you would never watch.

[Paige]

I hated that show. Any TV shows where they're like, yelling.

[Grace]

I've seen what I need to see. Wait, that's Cartoon Network too. The commercials were like, you want this.

[Paige]

Yogurt?

[Grace]

Why was there something so much yogurt in those squeeze tubes when we were little?

[Paige]

Easy Squeeze. The commercials were even like, too much. Like, I couldn't. I was like, no, get the station off. Like, I liked.

[Hannah]

Then I'd have to switch to, like.

[Paige]

PBS and like, watch like Wishbone or something. I'd be like, that's so over stimulating.

[Grace]

I did like Wishbone.

[Paige]

I loved Wishbone.

[Grace]

I'm surprised it didn't make you smarter as a kid.

[Paige]

Again, as I am as an adult where I like to watch pretty people on the tv. I like them to be so hot. As a younger child, I like to watch things that were aesthetically pleasing to me.

[Grace]

That's why I can't believe I'm your favorite person.

[Paige]

Anytime someone would offer up the Cartoon Network, I immediately knew what kind of kid you were. And I was disinterested. I would be like, no.

[Grace]

This is the thing, though. With Powerpuff Girls, it formed who I am as a woman.

[Paige]

See, again, I didn't like action.

[Grace]

You go, why are they moving so much?

[Paige]

I go, take a nap. Why don't you guys chill? Like, you're getting out of your house and you're like, running away from your parents and this is what you're going and doing, like, go to the mall. You know how, like, girls say, like, you can see your mental illness through the people that you've dated? Oh, if I truly went through my 20s and all of my boyfriends, I could tell you exactly what I thought about myself.

[Grace]

They say the person that you set up for is who you believe you deserve.

[Paige]

Also, if, like, someone doesn't like you back and you're, like, trying to get them to like you, you have to Realize that they're triggering something. Like in you. There are so many situations I feel like in my 20, where 20s where I was like, you don't like me?

[Grace]

Perfect. Now you're my type. But also amazing in your 20s. I think because you're still becoming who you are, you immediately don't think like, oh, he's not the right guy for me. You're like, oh, I did something wrong. Like, let me try that again. Like I just had to reframe myself for him. Where now my 30s, if someone didn't like me, I'd be like, oh, you've horrible taste.

[Paige]

And I'm like, I actually don't like you first. I didn't like you first.

[Grace]

I didn't like you first.

[Paige]

I'm 32 years old, but like I was home. So like when I step into Albany and I step onto my parents street, I'm 16, 100%, I have to ask to leave the house. Like I could never just leave my house.

[Grace]

Like that would be get permission.

[Paige]

Insane.

[Grace]

Ask when they want you home.

[Paige]

So it's like Friday night, sneak in.

[Grace]

A weed pen, 10 o'.

[Paige]

Clock. And I'm like, burns a little. And my mom can hear me. And here's the other thing. I'm in the bathroom in my room for like a while.

[Grace]

Yeah.

[Paige]

But my bathroom is above her bedroom. So she knows when I'm in the bathroom.

[Grace]

She knows when you have a tummy ache.

[Paige]

I hear coming up the stairs, what's going on? Are you okay? And like I immediately turned 16.

[Grace]

I'm like, I think I actually might.

[Paige]

Have a UTI, but I promise I actually didn't even have sex. And she just looks at me and she goes, okay. She's like, well, you don't always have to have sex to get a uti, you whore.

[Grace]

I was like, yeah, I just was giving blowjobs. I wasn't letting him go in.

[Paige]

I just didn't want like racking my brain because I'm like, how did I get one without having sex?

[Grace]

You sat on an MSG chair with like mostly men in that stadium.

[Hannah]

I don't know.

[Paige]

And then I was like, well, did I use a new soap? Like have I? And I was like, you know what? I think my immune system's just down. Like I'm coming up with like all these things.

[Grace]

Mauricio, Kyle's guy had a bracelet stack and it was of like stretchy like.

[Paige]

Taylor Swift bracelets or like, of like cardi.

[Grace]

I think it was a combination. Just like, like a man wearing stacked bracelets and everyone was like, oof, he's going through something. Yeah, like, this is a weird stage. Men with too many accessories. Like, you're trying to distract me from something. I don't trust men who wear a lot of accessories at all.

[Paige]

I hate men with an. With a bracelet situation like that. I bought myself a tennis bracelet, and I was, like, dating a man at the time, and he was like, I want a tennis bracelet too. And I was like, no, but this man wanted a diamond tennis bracelet. I almost threw off. No, I was like, it's not, or.

[Grace]

It'S not for you at all?

[Paige]

I was like, cool, Buy yourself one. And me.

[Grace]

Chris, do you have any accessories? I have a watch. And then in the summertime, I'll throw one bracelet on sometimes. Wait, explain it to me. What about the summer makes it bracelet weather? Bracelet time. Dude, one bracelet.

[Paige]

One bracelet doesn't.

[Grace]

No. But why not? Not the winter. I don't know. It just doesn't feel right.

[Paige]

Why has the standard for a wife stayed the same, yet the standard for a husband has gone down? She was like, my grandpa built my grandmother's house. Like, okay, now, like any man, he's like, cool, I'll call a task rabbit.

[Grace]

My final thought is, like, men literally used to go to war. Like, they would, like.

[Paige]

Is it even a final thought if you don't adjust your glasses?

[Grace]

You know, also, this whole time. This whole time, I can't see. Like, I can't see. I've been fighting for my life with these fake glasses. Cause I like the aesthetic, but, like, I feel blind. I can't hear. I can't talk. I feel I have nothing left. Men used to go to war. Men used to, like, have their arm blown off and still run and, like, do what they had to do. Nowadays, a man's going down on you and sees you're spotting slightly on your period, and he's like, I can't do it. Yeah.

[Paige]

Yeah.

[Grace]

Men used to go to war. And you can't go down on me when I'm on my period. Grow up.

[Paige]

And that's a great final thought.

[Grace]

When someone says, paige, you have to look your best at this day. She has a routine.

[Paige]

All I did was get facials and massages in la.

[Grace]

And I started to get kind of paranoid that I was.

[Paige]

You started to panic.

[Grace]

So I started.

[Paige]

Well, then Lenore got involved.

[Grace]

Lenore got involved. Lenore was like, whatever Paige is doing, do what Paige does. So I go online, and I'm clicking every lymphatic drainage place near me. Find just A woman in an apartment.

[Paige]

Awesome.

[Grace]

And I was like, the Price is Right safe. She does face and body. I said, we're doing it. So I just went to a random apartment building somewhere in la. What is wrong with you? You know that it's sketchy when the first thing they ask you when you walk in is, how'd you find me? She literally was like, how did you.

[Paige]

How did this come across your desk?

[Grace]

And then she was like, your name's Vanessa, right? And I was like, nope. And I was like, it's okay. It's fine. It was amazing. I don't think it was lymphatic, though. I think she gave me a full on abortion. I don't know what happened.

[Paige]

You are a sneaker wedge, girly.

[Grace]

I feel like you just called me Miranda. They were, like, in for a bit, but they were never.

[Paige]

They were in for like a second. Like, they weren't in in the country. Like, no one wore them in Albany. I remember being, like, feeling like a freak. But, like, in New York City, everyone wore them for like a year.

[Grace]

I love Crocs so much and I love my heeled wedged Crocs. So, like, I don't know if. If the right sneaker wedge comes across my desk. Yeah, I will.

[Paige]

You will.

[Grace]

I'm into, like the sneaker loafers that are New Balance everyone's been sending me. And I was like, give me 17 of them right now.

[Paige]

Wait, I don't know if I've seen the sneaker loafer.

[Grace]

It's like a silver. Like New Balance, but as a loafer. Okay, well, we have such different algorithms because this is the only thing on my algorithm right now. I got a lot of backlash on my Instagram last night because I said, I want you to shave your head like I'm a stone. Girls were not happy. They said, first of all, I think you're sabotaging Paige's orbo. And I go, she does that to herself. Second of all, I'm a creative. I come up with ideas. I throw ideas at Paige.

[Paige]

I think there's an Audrey Hepburn biopic that's circulating Hollywood.

[Grace]

That's what I heard.

[Paige]

And I think all the actresses are trying to get that role. And so they're dressing like her, they're cutting their hair like her, and they're.

[Grace]

Like, do you know who I think is going to get it?

[Paige]

I'll say who I think should get it? You say who you think should get it. One, two, three.

[Grace]

And Ariana Grande.

[Paige]

I don't like that.

[Grace]

I didn't Cast her.

[Paige]

I've been trying to watch Wicked for. We're going on seven days now. I've taken seven phenomenal naps right when it starts.

[Grace]

Wicked would be so good without the singing.

[Paige]

Wicked would be so fucking fire without the singing.

[Grace]

But do you see how you are? Glinda?

[Paige]

Yes, Ariana. From what I've. What I saw 15 minutes intermittently. She's crushed. She's amazing. She's phenomenal. She's the best singer of our entire generation. I don't want her to be Audrey Hepburn.

[Grace]

Why? She's Italian.

[Paige]

I just think Anne Hathaway has always looked the most like her. Or Lily Collins.

[Grace]

Or you.

[Paige]

Maybe I just wanted. I'm like, I've never acted. Put me in, coach.

[Grace]

I've seen you on Summer House. You're pretty good.

[Paige]

Ms. Giggly Squad. Like, I feel like something will happen on a Thursday, and I'm like, am.

[Hannah]

I really gonna wait till Monday?

[Grace]

Did you just say Thursday? I start itching.

[Paige]

I started itching.

[Grace]

And then I, like, want to tell you things and I'm like, hold it, hold it.

[Paige]

That's why Saturday. I was like, we gotta move the pot up to Sunday. I got shit to say. How about I texted you at like 8am on a Saturday morning this weekend?

[Grace]

I was like. And I just feel, like, overwhelmed. No, well, you get morning anxiety.

[Paige]

I get morning.

[Grace]

That disappears by 1pm so I'm out here all day. I'm like, I'm calling Des. I'm like, I don't. Like, I think Paige is having a bad day. Like, what should I tell her? Radio silence from her. I was like, call me whenever you need. I'm here. I go, she must be in an escape room right now. She must be have checked into a mental health rehab facility and that's why she hasn't called me. Text you around 8:30. Just like, how y' all need? You go, oh, my God. Lol. I was so dramatic. I go, I've been freaking out.

[Paige]

Oh, my God. That was this morning. Literally. So dramatic. I'm over it.

[Grace]
