Acast recommends podcasts. We love Chris and Rosie Ramsey here, hosts of the multiple award winning arena sellout podcast f married, annoyed.

[00:00:09]

What's with that beep?

[00:00:10]

That's because this advert's going out on podcasts that might not appreciate the language. Oh, right.

[00:00:15]

Okay.

[00:00:15]

Listen to hear us talk beeps. Parenting, growing up, and so much more. But do not listen if you're not a fan of the word and all that kind of stuff. Just search Mardenaud wherever you get your podcasts. Acast is home to the world's best podcasts, including the David McWilliams podcast. I'm grandmam, and the one you're listening to right now.

[00:00:43]

Sup, gigglers?

[00:00:45]

Gary, fix the wifi.

[00:00:46]

Manifest that shit. We can't be managed.

[00:00:53]

I mean, the day just got away from me.

[00:00:56]

Hello. We ride at gone gigglers. I don't know what that meant. I would. Okay, I'm announcing officially right now, 03:00.

[00:01:06]

A.M. talk about bad admin. We're announcing a bunch of things. We're doing housekeeping right now. We're announcing we haven't announced anything on the pod.

[00:01:15]

And people were like, hey, can you say it? And we were like, okay, so my Netflix special is coming out 03:00 a.m. tuesday, east coast time. Midnight la time.

[00:01:25]

I'm gonna stay up til 03:00 a.m. because if I did it for Bridgerton, I have to do it for you.

[00:01:29]

Wait, that's the nicest thing you've ever done for me. Also, if you live in between L. A. And New York, we don't know. Figure it out. Do the math.

[00:01:36]

You want us to know mountain time in what world?

[00:01:41]

I just.

[00:01:41]

Economy in an election year? I just found out there was mountain time two years ago.

[00:01:48]

I thought it was a bit. I thought we were kidding. So anyway, that's happening. We ride at dawn. You guys, I love you all so much. It's literally just because of the gigglers that this even happened to me. And apparently. Apparently all Netflix cares about is retention rate, which means, like, put it on and make sure it ends till the end. If you love me a lot, and if I've ever made you giggle once with Paige. If Paige has even ever made you giggle.

[00:02:11]

Can we keep it? What if we just.

[00:02:13]

I want it on repeat. I don't know if it does the loop, but I would say, go to your parents place, turn on. We write a dawn, put it on mute. If they don't, like, stand up.

[00:02:21]

I wonder from the same account, if I just keep playing it.

[00:02:24]

Let it play.

[00:02:25]

If it will go to your ex.

[00:02:26]

Boyfriend'S house, put it on, play. Hide the remote, throw it into the garden if you have a garden. If you don't, throw it away.

[00:02:32]

If you have anyone else's Netflix password, log in. Add it to my list. Up next.

[00:02:37]

Yes. Yes. Add to the. Up next. This is the moment we've all been waiting for my whole life.

[00:02:43]

It's no pressure, but it's all boiled down to this.

[00:02:45]

It's all boiled down to this. This is make or break.

[00:02:47]

I feel good. I'm not worried because I did my job. I'm in charge of looks, and I did my job. So if it fails, that's on you.

[00:02:56]

This is our conversation before every live giggly squad show. She goes, I'm good. Cause I look really good. And the gigglers are gonna like my outfit.

[00:03:04]

They're gonna be fine. Like, one time we almost didn't have microphones, and I was like, what are we worrying about? We're fine.

[00:03:11]

I'm wearing a peplum. What are we worried about? So we write a dawn. And when I say we, I mean us. I mean you guys. I love you so much. Number two.

[00:03:21]

Sorry we wrote a book. Sorry we wrote a book.

[00:03:25]

It was one of the easiest things to keep from you guys because in what world?

[00:03:29]

Not a single person in a message that I saw said book.

[00:03:34]

I got a couple, but they weren't confident about it. They were like, is it a book? No, no, no. It couldn't be.

[00:03:41]

And we're just as baffled as you.

[00:03:42]

And there was a couple, like, is this going to be an audiobook?

[00:03:44]

Obviously, Hannah did say, I feel like we can go down a chapter because we do want a lot of pictures. And the publisher said, not how it works. And we fought for it.

[00:03:55]

We need to explain the book. Cause I feel like gigglers were blindsided. They don't know how to process it. Let's start from day one. We were approached by Simon and Schuster again. We thought it was a bit.

[00:04:06]

I thought they got the wrong email. I was like, this has a fake Simon and schuster.

[00:04:09]

Also, you responded fully misspelling every word. I'm like, clearly this girl doesn't know how to.

[00:04:14]

Right? It's not for me.

[00:04:16]

And they didn't even offer us a coffee table book. Like, they were like, you're writing a book?

[00:04:21]

Yeah.

[00:04:22]

And it's funny. Cause I think subconsciously we were like, we want a novel that also cosplays as a coffee table book.

[00:04:31]

Well, I went into it and I was like, surely they'll give us a ghost writer, because everyone that I personally know that has written books, and it's not a lot of people, but, like, any tv personality, people that have written books, like, you can see on the COVID like, ghost written by blah, blah, blah. And they're like, oh. It's like, you just tell them all your thoughts. And then they put it into a nice format. And Simon and Schuster was like, no, we're not giving you one. You don't get one. So I went to sheer panic mode.

[00:05:02]

I think they said, we will give.

[00:05:03]

You a ghostwriter, but you have a challenge.

[00:05:07]

I love a challenge. And also, the ghostwriter is not gonna be our voice.

[00:05:10]

Yeah.

[00:05:11]

Because it's some random guy named Steve.

[00:05:14]

Yeah. Isn't getting the vibe of the gigglers.

[00:05:17]

No. And we couldn't risk that. And also, I do have to say, I do love to write. Stand up is all writing.

[00:05:23]

No. Hannah wrote the whole book in one weekend. We literally were assigned different chapters. And then Monday, she was just like, oh, I realize that you're stupid, and I did it.

[00:05:33]

No, I assigned you things, and you nailed what you were assigned.

[00:05:38]

That's true. I missed just a few deadlines. They did have to rework the whole schedule at one point.

[00:05:44]

Let's say this took over a year. This was our blood, sweat, and tears of. We wrote this fucking book. And we're so proud of it. It's a guide to giggling. To giggling. It's how to take life less seriously. It's all these. It's stories of our life, but also just opinions. Anything for us.

[00:06:04]

It's a lot of vibes.

[00:06:05]

Vibes.

[00:06:05]

A lot of my favorite comment was people saying, so Grace wrote a book, and we were like, yes.

[00:06:11]

So to give credit where credit is due, when I was younger, we all know my dad was tough on me with tennis. Why am I bringing this up so early in the pod? But then you'd think, well, at least school. You weren't. Nope. My mom was very firm with school where, like, I'd write an essay and she'd have to read it beforehand. Cause she's a teacher, and she would take a big red pen.

[00:06:31]

Oh, my God.

[00:06:32]

Aggressive, right?

[00:06:33]

Yeah.

[00:06:33]

And she would just be like, x ing things. Writing question marks, which is the most.

[00:06:37]

Question marks, are so passive aggressive.

[00:06:39]

The most past progressive, cunty thing to do is put a question. What do you mean?

[00:06:43]

You know what it says when a teacher would write, what did you mean? Here, question mark.

[00:06:47]

My bud would blow.

[00:06:49]

Yeah. I'm like, oh, really? Cause my mom's about to hold my fucking hoops.

[00:06:54]

Cause I'm just an idiot. You don't have to put a question mark. So she would give back to me. I have to rewrite it. So my mom was basically like, you guys write the book, and I will make sure that there's no, like, grammatical errors, that it makes sense. And my mom also, I got a lot of.

[00:07:07]

Don't know what you mean. Here, Paige. Got it. Thank you. I will read you that.

[00:07:12]

Not to completely call you out. I think that you would get high, surely, and forget what this beginning of the sentence was probably. Or, like, you'd write it sober and then start getting more high.

[00:07:23]

Yeah.

[00:07:24]

So my mom was navigating your artistic.

[00:07:26]

Mind and my process.

[00:07:28]

And your process. And we don't question your process.

[00:07:30]

And I would never say to Lenore that I was on a bunch of edibles.

[00:07:34]

No.

[00:07:34]

When I wrote that specific pain.

[00:07:36]

Lenora's too pure for that.

[00:07:37]

I would never say that to her. And I just said, sorry, I'll take care of it.

[00:07:40]

And then we had grace, you know, in the weeds as well. It was all hands on deck. But then the most exciting time came, which was the COVID What would the COVID be?

[00:07:52]

And I know what you're thinking. You guys are so creative. What was your inspo? Rainbow Fish was part of our inspo. Hannah found this random picture of the Mona Lisa in a sepia filter, and that was also our inspo.

[00:08:08]

So this is where I have to apologize to the academy. Cause there was a point where I said, paige, I'll write the book. Can you handle the COVID Yep. And not to say I'm a control freak, but I get excited when I get creatively, like, inspired. So, of course, I run it by Paige, and I'm like, look at this Mona Lisa. And over her mouth was like a collage cut out of, like, a different mouth. And I said, paige, it's, like, a serious thing. But then a smiling, like, giggling. I said, I ran it past the important people, which was you. And you said, let's do this.

[00:08:37]

Yes. So we do an entire photo shoot. We get our looks. Everyone at the photo shoot's like, you're nailing us up. It's gonna be perfect. We get the vision. We know exactly what you guys are going for.

[00:08:51]

And I'm also being like, so, like, we got this.

[00:08:54]

I'm so. I've never been more confident. I'm like, it's so different, and it created decisions, so no one's ever seen it before. It's iconic. A couple days later, we get a very humbling email. We get a very humbling email of four renditions of the COVID Now, when I tell you one was worse than the other, I thought it was a bit. I said, no one sent this email being serious.

[00:09:18]

No, but it was in that they were like, we, like, three the best, maybe four. Let us know your notes. Paige immediately responded.

[00:09:25]

I went, and this is where it's bad that I forget that I'm dealing with professional publishers, writers, editors. These people are real humans. I emailed back and said, absolutely not.

[00:09:39]

You were not that tert.

[00:09:41]

I said, is that the word?

[00:09:41]

Tort, Kurt? You weren't that Kurt. Is that the word?

[00:09:44]

I think I said. I think you're making up words.

[00:09:46]

You weren't that Kurt.

[00:09:47]

Who the fuck is Kurt?

[00:09:49]

Who is Kurt?

[00:09:50]

What are you trying to say? You're not.

[00:09:52]

You weren't that quick and mean like Kurt.

[00:09:55]

Kurt.

[00:09:56]

Don't you ever gaslight me on my own podcast, Kurtcurt. Oh, you like that?

[00:10:02]

Short for Curtis. So I don't know what the fuck you guys are talking about. Never in my life. No. What did I say back? I felt, do you want me to read it? Okay, then here's the worst part. Wait, so then Hannah finds this artist on Instagram who, like, literally did the exact type of COVID that we wanted in her art.

[00:10:21]

Wait, can I write with your response? She goes, hi. Exclamation mark with a bunch of eyes, so, you know shit's about to go down.

[00:10:28]

Yep.

[00:10:29]

I'm sorry. I'm going to be so honest, Kama. I actually don't like any of them at all, period. I hate the coloring. The pictures aren't lined up at all, and we actually look scary, so that was actually so polite.

[00:10:39]

That did great, because in my head, I was like, are you guys fucking.

[00:10:42]

Stupid when I tell you this cover made Paige Desorbo look ugly?

[00:10:46]

No, I could. Hannah keeps texting it to me just randomly throughout the day. A Tuesday at 01:00 p.m. i'll just get a text from her with this cover photo.

[00:10:55]

I do have to say, the professional people who have worked to get to this point in their life to create that first draft, it was not their fault. I do have to say it was fully my fault. I had a vision, and it didn't work. I looked. I had the hills of eyes. Cause we had, like, serious eyes with, like, a smile on it, and it wasn't matched up.

[00:11:12]

No, it's not.

[00:11:13]

It's.

[00:11:13]

We're gonna put it in the newsletter. Hannah wants to put it on Instagram. But honestly, I'm fearful because I.

[00:11:19]

You don't want it living on the Internet.

[00:11:21]

I don't want my enemies getting a hold of this.

[00:11:24]

Cause what happened is this weekend, my friends saw the COVID and they were, like, complimenting it so much. And I was like, I gotta tell you the tea of this cover. Cause also, they weren't just like, let's figure out a cover. They were like, we did a whole photo shoot, and this is due in, like, four days.

[00:11:38]

Yeah.

[00:11:38]

And they were like, so you have to pick one. We start dying laughing, though. Like, we were not mad. We were laughing so hard that I actually. It was a great memory.

[00:11:48]

It honestly was a great memory. Like, I'll never forget that first cover.

[00:11:52]

I laughed. Guttural laughs. And that's. And that's what the book's about. Isn't it beautiful? Take life less seriously. Cause we could have cried.

[00:12:01]

We could have cried panic angry.

[00:12:03]

We could have sued.

[00:12:04]

But we were just now. We just now it's my profile picture in your phone.

[00:12:08]

Now. The thing is, I really do feel like it was my fault. Cause I pushed everyone towards this hard creative vision. So I think I follow this random girl labyrinth of collages. If I like something that's artistic, I follow it. I think it enhances my energy. And I was like, let's just message this girl. It'll be easy. Of course, she lives in Australia.

[00:12:29]

No, the time difference was insane. Talk about admin. She was like, I can get on the phone at, like, 14 hours ahead. I'm like, what is going on?

[00:12:36]

She doesn't realize we are to the wire. This is a panic move. This is our last chance to get this cover right.

[00:12:43]

Thankfully, the COVID artist pulled through beyond, beyond. She gave us so many different options. We added things, took things away, formed them together, and then we got the COVID that we have. And did you get the mock up sent to you?

[00:12:56]

Yep. Did you?

[00:12:57]

Yeah.

[00:12:57]

Did you get emotional? I did, yeah.

[00:12:59]

I got you know what? In true giggly squad fashion, I got emotional because I was so happy. And then I felt, wow, what? Revenge. To all my teachers that said I would never be able to read or do anything in an intellectual capacity.

[00:13:15]

I almost texted your mom to be like, aren't you proud of that daughter that you really thought couldn't put the two words together?

[00:13:23]

Really proud of the daughter that you thought had speech impediment growing up.

[00:13:26]

And look at her now.

[00:13:28]

Look at her go.

[00:13:29]

But I do think it's a great example of, like, when you see someone or anything accomplish something, it really is just the tip of that iceberg. And the bottom is, like, so many failures and confusion trying to get there. So keep failing up. Cause you might publish a book one day.

[00:13:43]

No, we've manifested all of those.

[00:13:45]

It's crazy. And I do think for the gigglers, like, we're in this weird energy where gigglers hit me up, that they're manifesting shit for their own lives, too. So I'm starting to think this is a witch podcast. Yeah.

[00:13:54]

We've literally started a religion. And it's scary.

[00:13:57]

It's scary. But like I said, we don't even get text breaks on it, but it's fine.

[00:14:01]

I feel like we haven't been here in weeks.

[00:14:03]

Yeah. Cause we haven't.

[00:14:05]

And we never take. I can't remember the last time we took a week off.

[00:14:08]

We never take a week off. We need to let you guys. I know I've been taking the blame for a lot. I'm not taking the blame on this.

[00:14:13]

No.

[00:14:14]

The people up power of podcasting of our whatever, were like, you guys contractually need to take a week off. You don't take any weeks off. Can you take a week off? And we were scared. We were scared.

[00:14:27]

Hannah texted me and was like, should we just record? Anyway, I didn't respond because I was like, shut up, bitch.

[00:14:32]

We were worried about the gigglers mental health. We were worried about our own mental health.

[00:14:36]

I feel like there's so many things. If you don't have a podcast, who are you spewing all of your nonsense to?

[00:14:43]

100%.

[00:14:44]

Like, I had so many things come up that I was like, okay, is this a gripe?

[00:14:47]

What do you do with that?

[00:14:48]

Here's another gripe.

[00:14:49]

What do you do? Just tell it to your friend and not giggly squad. That's insane.

[00:14:53]

No. And because gigglers give us such positive reinforcement back that we're not crazy, but it's like, I realize that we're all just crazy together. Side note, the gigglers get it.

[00:15:04]

One thing about Grace, who's back in action. Thank you for the prayer.

[00:15:07]

We're back to regularly scheduled programming, for sure.

[00:15:10]

And you're back in America.

[00:15:13]

Thank God.

[00:15:14]

So you know that it was Grace's birthday sometime over the last couple weeks, but she hid it from us. Like, I had to see, like, a friend of a friend tag her that it was her birthday.

[00:15:24]

Wait a minute.

[00:15:25]

I texted her, and I was like, is it your birthday? And she was like, lol. And I was like, how did we find the one person who hates attention so much.

[00:15:34]

Wait, when was your birthday?

[00:15:36]

The 15 June. What the fuck? She didn't want us to know.

[00:15:41]

Oh, my God.

[00:15:42]

We were sending her smoothies during that time, so that does kind of count as a gift. But, like, how funny is it that she hid her birthday from us?

[00:15:50]

I was telling everyone that it was your birthday.

[00:15:52]

Even if someone was, like, gun to your head, don't tell people it's your birthday. I'd be like, I'd last three minutes.

[00:15:57]

Yeah.

[00:15:57]

And then I'd be like.

[00:16:00]

Do you ever like going about your normal day? Yeah. Like, when it's your birthday. Like, you go and do your normal routine. Like, okay, you're going. Get a coffee, and, like, there's an urge for you to say, like, oh, also, it's my birthday.

[00:16:12]

You feel like you're lying to someone if you don't tell them it's your birthday.

[00:16:15]

You don't realize how special this day is. And you get to talk to me right now because it's my birthday.

[00:16:18]

Also, they're looking at you, and I'm like, I can tell that he knows it's my birthday, and I should just confirm that. The glow and aura I'm giving off his birthday.

[00:16:26]

I can't believe you didn't say anything.

[00:16:28]

But, like, I feel like that's why we all get along so well, because Grace would rather literally. I don't know.

[00:16:35]

Yeah.

[00:16:35]

Anything.

[00:16:36]

I actually don't really love my birthday either. I'm not a huge.

[00:16:39]

Well, you're 31. No one cares about birthdays anymore.

[00:16:42]

That's true.

[00:16:42]

That's what. Bring it up. Hailey, who came over, she was like, it's my birthday. And I was like, what's. What age? She goes, 31. I go, nobody cares. Nobody cares.

[00:16:49]

It's so true. That's one. No. Until we turn 35, nobody cares.

[00:16:53]

Can I say something really fucked up?

[00:16:54]

Yeah.

[00:16:55]

So I'm 32, about to turn 33, and I realized I have, like, basically two more years of even passing as young.

[00:17:03]

Why would you say that right now? It's a Sunday thing.

[00:17:06]

I thought we were being honest with each other. I'm saying this honest thing. Cause I want us to think bigger picture.

[00:17:11]

Yeah.

[00:17:11]

Being young sucks. Your frontal lobe is, like, not there. Not there.

[00:17:18]

Hannah texted me this weekend. Wait. Hannah texted me this weekend and said, and just in case you ever need to come back, just say, call me when your frontal lobe is developed. And I. There's nothing like friendship when your friend is just, like, in case you need an insult, I have one on deck.

[00:17:38]

For you in case you get in a fight with this man. If you happen to this summer, for whatever reason, I thought of something that I can't say cause I've been fired. But if you wanna say it, I think it's.

[00:17:48]

You can use it. I told everyone. I literally told Sierra. I was like, if you wanna take this, you can.

[00:17:54]

But I do have to say, our life is not about being old or young. It's the energy we are as people. It's the soul who we are that goes through a lot of states and.

[00:18:04]

Oh, my. Are you high?

[00:18:06]

Yes. Yeah. No, I'm tired. Actually. I'm kind of nervous just cause I have an insane week ahead of me.

[00:18:11]

No, you really. So tonight, you're doing spots to prepare for Jimmy Fallon. Tomorrow.

[00:18:18]

Okay. We didn't even talk about Jimmy. I'm nervous about Fallon because I have to do five minutes of clean material.

[00:18:24]

And they film it during the day. It's not. It's at 04:00 p.m. and it's not actually, like, even though it's not live, you can't. They're not, like, redoing things.

[00:18:36]

I don't think they can, like, cut anything. And if I accidentally curse, they'll, like, bleep it. But then they'll. I think you get written off, like, you can't work in this town again. If you curse on Fallon, if you.

[00:18:46]

Need something to say to Jimmy Fallon, you can bring up that we went to the same college that is now no longer. So if you need a little anecdote. Wait, you can. You and Jimmy went to St. Rose? That doesn't exist. And I don't know what that says about us.

[00:19:01]

But the funny thing is, the booker was like, we're so excited to have you on. Let's figure out what five minutes of jokes you have that work. And I sent them some of my clean options, and they were like, what? Were, like, the really punchy bits we saw you do at JFL. And I was like, oh, yeah. The queef bit of. And the gun bit. I feel like Chris has heard me talk about this before, but it's a particular feeling that only women will feel, is when you're sitting or lying down and you fart, and the fart can't go down, so it comes up through your labia lips and you fart upward. Men can never do that. Cause they have Phoebe. Why did I say Phoebe? Am I the only honest one here?

[00:19:45]

No. I've.

[00:19:46]

Am I alone? No.

[00:19:47]

I'm alive and low key.

[00:19:48]

You're kind of like, ooh. No.

[00:19:50]

It is a weird feeling.

[00:19:52]

Oh, it hits too many.

[00:19:53]

You know what I hate about society and this misogynistic world that we live in? Every time that happens, I'm immediately like, oh, my God. Sorry. That's so embarrassing. But it's not, because you did that to me.

[00:20:04]

Oh, queefing. You queefed me, period.

[00:20:07]

Yeah. Like, I had no control over it.

[00:20:10]

No girl has ever queefed alone.

[00:20:12]

Yeah.

[00:20:12]

And that. So, anyway, I have a whole bit. One of my favorite bits on Netflix is about that I couldn't do that. And then I have a joke about how all the girls should have guns, and they were like, let's not so little.

[00:20:22]

Let's not so little in an election year. You just. We can't.

[00:20:27]

So we're trying to figure out now what clean bits. And they want you to do multiple bits in five minutes.

[00:20:32]

Clean bits. Sounds like a love island, UK, like, episode.

[00:20:37]

Yeah.

[00:20:38]

Spin off clean bits. Clean bits. Dirty bits and clean bits.

[00:20:41]

Dirty bits and clean bits.

[00:20:42]

I do think that I am gonna go off about Love island in a second.

[00:20:45]

Actually go off.

[00:20:48]

Okay. Cause last time I talked about it on the pod, I was one episode into USA, and I was spewing not hate, but I was just like, I'm getting annoyed that people are, like, just watching USA, and they think that's what love island is. When there's a whole history to Love island, and it started in the UK. I'm not gonna take everything I said about it back, because I do think that the american version is so dramatic and heightened, and it's. It's just not the way the british girls are when they meet who they're coupled up with and getting to know.

[00:21:19]

It'S a different show.

[00:21:20]

I mean, it's similar, but the vibes are completely different on each show. Here's what I will say. There is a man on Love Island, USA, who, I'm not kidding, is the worst man on reality tv that I've seen in a couple years. Like, he's so scary and manipulative, and the way he turns things into making it the girls, like, fault. I actually said to the tv, I hope that there's a psychologist professor watching this, and they're clipping this as and showing it to a class because this is 101. He actually reminded me of someone.

[00:22:01]

Yeah.

[00:22:02]

And I was so. I think I was so triggered by it because I was like, oh, my God. And everyone loves you because you're so hot, and, like, you're the only hot guy on the show. And so there's also.

[00:22:14]

People are siding with him.

[00:22:15]

People are liking him. There are some people that are like, oh, he's the worst. But he's not getting nearly as much shit as, like, one of the other, like, one of the girls that he.

[00:22:23]

Was with, this girl named Leah, of something he did.

[00:22:26]

He started. He was coupled up with this girl Leah, and unpopular opinion, too. I'm full team Leah. He was coupled up with Leah. And then he started talking to another girl. Leah went up to him and said, like, why are you talking to this other girl? Like, do you like her? Whatever. He fully made it her fault that she wasn't listening to how he felt. Like, about the situation. He started crying. Whenever a man starts crying because they're frustrated, that's for girls. And when we get pulled over and we're trying to get out of a speeding ticket, it's not for you guys. No, like, I can't do it. I've been in so many situations recently where my comeback. Not even comeback, but, like, my explanation is, but I'm a girl and you're not, so it's like, you don't get to do this.

[00:23:15]

Well, this is the thing. Let's be honest, and I'm gonna say something controversial.

[00:23:18]

Okay?

[00:23:18]

Reality tv is for girls. The men on reality tv.

[00:23:21]

No, it's for girls.

[00:23:22]

It's for girls. Girls are the stars of it. Girls are the ones who get the hate. Girls are the ones who get the. The storylines. The men are accessories.

[00:23:29]

Come on.

[00:23:30]

And when men are getting good edits on reality tv, it is honestly scary. Should be illegal.

[00:23:37]

Call your local representative. Call your local lobbyist. I've had enough with the men on reality tv. Getting away with actual murder.

[00:23:47]

No. 100%. And will they get in trouble for some things, yeah. But let's be honest. If a girl did it, she'd be.

[00:23:55]

No, no, no. So I'm just like, I'm still watching. Obviously, it is getting crazy, and it is good, but I will never not be a true love island UK fan.

[00:24:06]

I think it's also because when men get emotional, like, if a man cries, it's like, she must have murdered someone, where if a girl cries, it's immediately like, oh, she misunderstood the situation. She's overacting, and she's trying to be a victim.

[00:24:18]

When men cry to be manipulative, to, like, it's. I.

[00:24:22]

That's like, a level of.

[00:24:23]

I also want to say that's when I'm like, oh, I'll really make you cry.

[00:24:27]

People know that I don't know if everyone knows, but I actually, like, loved reality tv, and I can't watch it anymore because I know how the sausage is made. But how has being on reality tv affected you, watching reality tv shows?

[00:24:40]

Well, watching. I really only watch Love island is, like, the only reality tv. Sometime Craig makes me watch 90 day fiance, but they're so fucking crazy that I feel, like, fine about my own life. So Love island is really the only one I watch. Like, I don't. I can't watch anything else on Bravo, but you can just see, I can tell what producers would have wanted and how they made their dream scenario absolutely happen. So that's a little bit of a mind fuck because I'm like, you guys don't even know that you thought this is all naturally happening. The producer said something to you specifically that changed your mind, and now we're in this scenario, and I don't think, like, people who haven't filmed a show would ever catch on to certain things like that. So then I end up hating characters even more because I'm like, oh, my.

[00:25:31]

God, you went with what the producers.

[00:25:33]

Went exactly with what they wanted, and.

[00:25:36]

You knew it would hurt your friend.

[00:25:38]

You didn't give a bad.

[00:25:39]

Yeah.

[00:25:40]

And it's. Yeah. So I get. I have a hard time, like, not getting so emotionally charged, for sure.

[00:25:45]

I also think when people are like, oh, how did people not know this season was gonna turn out the way it was? It's. Cause it's like, think of a hang. Like, when you're hanging out, one person is not the star and one person is not completely the villain, you're all just hanging out throughout the night. So when it airs and one person looks like they are, like, a God, and then one person looks like they're the most horrible person in the world. Yeah, people have done things, but it's never that extreme that when you're actually hanging out, and I always say if you talk to each person about what happened, they all will give you a different narrative. So you just have to pray that your narrative is the one that's shown.

[00:26:21]

Right.

[00:26:21]

And when you're in a large cast, it's a small percentage chance.

[00:26:25]

I will say, too, one difference that I found to be kind of interesting. They're the same age range, UK and USA. UK truly is just more mature than us. And I get it because I.

[00:26:38]

Or is it because they sound smarter?

[00:26:40]

A little bit of both. Like, honestly, like, I was 24 years old and I definitely acted like the girls on love island, USA. Like, I would definitely get obsessed with someone, and I don't know anything about them, but in my head, I made it up.

[00:26:53]

Yeah.

[00:26:53]

Where? UK. The girls are more mature. They handle situations better. They just are more mature. And I feel like that's one thing.

[00:27:02]

I've always loved about the UK. And shout out to British Dave, who taught me. This is like, they're obsessed with chat. Is the chat good? Where in America you meet a guy, you're not like, oh, our conversation flowed. We had good chat. You're like, okay, check. He's tall. Check. He has blue eyes. Check.

[00:27:19]

No, he's very into, like, chemistry. Yeah. Do we mesh? Do I even, like, laugh with him? Where USA is like, and I think we could learn, do I want to sleep with him?

[00:27:30]

When you go on a date with a guy, is the chat good, or are you just hilarious? And you could have been talking to a brick wall. You could have been at home facetiming your friend.

[00:27:40]

Yeah.

[00:27:40]

And that's just like dating. We just figured out dating.

[00:27:47]

Acast recommends podcasts. We love Chris and Rosie Ramsey here, hosts of the multiple award winning arena sellout podcast, married, annoyed.

[00:27:57]

What would that be?

[00:27:58]

That's because this advert's going out on podcasts that might not appreciate the language. Oh, right.

[00:28:03]

Okay.

[00:28:04]

Listen to hear us talk beefs, parenting, growing up, and so much more. But do not listen if you're not a fan of the word and all that kind of stuff. Just search Marden Ord wherever you get your podcasts. Acast is home to the world's best podcasts, including the David McWilliams podcast. I'm grandmam and the one you're listening to right now.

[00:28:30]

I've been drinking ag one for about two years now, and I really started when I started traveling a lot more. I was always packing their travel packs, and when I tell you, I definitely see a difference in my immune support when I don't drink. Ag one is kind of crazy. I always bring it on vacation. I've gotten all my friends into it. I ordered a bunch of ag one for Craig's house, went through it, and then all of a sudden, it was replenished, and I realized he was loving it, too. Ag one is constantly pushing their formula to the test, trusted by experts and medical professionals, and it is backed by multiple research studies. Ag one's in house team of doctors, scientists, and researchers work with a third party expert on studies that validate the benefits of ag one, giving you one less thing to think about. Also, 97% of people in a research study felt more energy after 30 days of drinking ag one, and 91% of participants notice they need less coffee after 60 days of drinking ag one. So if I had to recommend one product to support whole body health, it's ag one.

[00:30:00]

Oh, I do wanna bring this up, because this is so not me, but I obviously you cried. No. Oh, God, no. But I was on Instagram, and I just kept seeing all this chatter about Olivia Culpo, and it was just like, so, I mean, people were coming for this girl's neck on some things, and I really wasn't fully read into everything on TikTok and, like, all of it. But I did see that people were like, oh, my God, my son. Yeah. And I was kind of busy, but. So I didn't watch all the TikToks and I didn't see all the comments, but your best friends with Hailey Beaver. So I was like, let me just shoot my shot and send Olivia Colbo a DM.

[00:30:44]

Have you dmed her before?

[00:30:46]

No, but then I looked back and, like, I've tagged her and things, like, years ago. I must have, like, copied one of her outfits or just like, whatever. So I sent her a message, and I was just like, I didn't see a bunch of stuff, but, like, you looked gorgeous at your wedding and you looked stunning. And, like, don't worry about anything. She messaged me back and was like, thank you so much. It's been tough, but I appreciate it. And I just sent another message. Come on, giggly squat. No, I didn't. But I was like, no, I'm obsessed with you, but I just felt so bad. Regardless of if you like someone's wedding dress or not. And yes, she's like a public figure, and people are allowed to have opinions and say they don't like it, but I don't know, for whatever reason, I think because I've been a fan of her for so long, I felt like, okay, but she's still a girl sitting at home looking at messages, being like, you look horrible on your wedding.

[00:31:42]

Yeah.

[00:31:42]

Which is, like, what we've been trained to be the biggest day of our lives. And so for that, I felt so bad.

[00:31:51]

So first, let's acknowledge that you only messaged her to make me jealous because of the daily stuff.

[00:31:57]

Sorry.

[00:31:57]

Bigger.

[00:31:58]

This was bigger than you.

[00:31:59]

It was not like a girls girl thing. It was actually a girl and girl crime. Don't let her confuse you. This was literally just about me.

[00:32:07]

Calculated. I did just start filming reality tv again. So I am in it. I am not. Okay. And I am in it.

[00:32:15]

I do have to warn people. Yeah. During the episodes of the next two or three months, it will go rogue.

[00:32:20]

And there will be mental breakdowns I'm having a hard time seeing again.

[00:32:24]

So big picture with the Olivia Coppol thing is, we're at this insane time where back then, for people to critique things, it would come from the mass media, where now anyone, anyone could judge it, and it get the virality of way more than newspapers.

[00:32:43]

What are the words? Virality?

[00:32:45]

Sorry, sorry. I don't know where that came from. A girl's viral TikTok definitely does better than a magazine did. Absolutely. And then we're at the point not only where anyone's opinion could be considered group mentality, whether it's right or wrong, but now the celebrity also can directly respond to them. And honestly, it's chaotic.

[00:33:10]

No, it's chaotic.

[00:33:11]

And I don't think our society knows yet how to manage these opinions going viral of anyone at any time. Sometimes people do opinions that they don't expect to go viral. And then when it goes viral, get hate. Cause they just thought it was kind of a joke or, like, kind of an opinion. But people are like, how could you have that opinion?

[00:33:28]

Yeah.

[00:33:28]

So then celebs, when they comment it.

[00:33:33]

Then it blows up even more.

[00:33:34]

It tends to get worse, because then it's like a David risk alive type situation where it's like, oh, you're coming for this small creator type thing. But then it's also like, this is a human who feels attacked by the entire Internet. So we are in Game of Thrones.

[00:33:51]

It's literally. It's really stressful out there. And so I just, like, felt bad because I was like, oh, my God, if that happened to me, like, on my wedding day, I'm like, I love this fucking dress. And then everyone was just like, you're disgusting. I hate it.

[00:34:06]

You know what I would say to the girls? And this could be powerful. And I'm not saying anyone was in the wrong, but if you have a moment where you want to go on a rant about, like, how Olivia Coppola said she didn't put mascara on, but she had a lash lift, so she's a liar. Take that energy, which is such a. Like, take that energy. And we're not saying you're wrong.

[00:34:25]

Yeah. No, it's a fact. Yep.

[00:34:27]

Take that energy and ruin a man's day with it.

[00:34:30]

And that's all we've tried to say since we started.

[00:34:33]

Cause you're smart. You know what's going on.

[00:34:36]

Use it in tune with things you can see behind.

[00:34:40]

Should be a lawyer. Yeah, let's take that. Put it towards the enemy, girl. And girl crime is not what we need to do right now.

[00:34:48]

I had one sentence that I kept saying all weekend, and people started to get annoyed with me by the end of it. And I kept saying, how do you guys run the country? And I couldn't stop saying it, because at every turn here, I am baffled.

[00:35:01]

To men.

[00:35:01]

Yeah. I said, and your species is in charge of men.

[00:35:05]

But this is crazy, because the women run everything but the country. And that's where I get worried.

[00:35:10]

Craig's actually getting really mad at me recently because I keep saying you guys aren't natural born leaders. Cause I saw one TikTok.

[00:35:19]

I saw the same TikTok. We have the same algorithm, and it's now. Can we discuss it?

[00:35:22]

It's now my religion.

[00:35:22]

How much time do we have? Can we discuss it?

[00:35:24]

Absolutely.

[00:35:24]

I have, like, an hour for this.

[00:35:25]

Let's go.

[00:35:26]

Men are not natural born leaders is the thing that was said. That sounds fucking witchy.

[00:35:33]

It hit so deep in the depths, it was almost like my ancestors were like, this is what we've been trying to tell you guys.

[00:35:40]

And, you know, I 100% agree. Cause, you know when you're in preschool.

[00:35:43]

Mm hmm.

[00:35:44]

Who is the person that decides she has to stand up? I said, she already. It was me who said, everyone sit down. I'm the teacher now, bitch.

[00:35:53]

I mean, we could go as far back as Adam and Eve. Okay. Because Eve got the apple, gave it to Adam. Why didn't Adam get his ass up and look for his own apple? So, like, we could go even further back. Here's the other thing. Military, all men, pretty much. They're taking orders from other men. They love taking orders. They love being told what to do.

[00:36:19]

Cause men are dogs. Women are cats. Wow. We just figured out everything.

[00:36:24]

And what this girl said in her TikTok was essentially like, the way you can tell that men aren't natural born leaders is because when they're outside the home doing their job, that's their job. Like, they're taking orders from someone, they know what they're doing that day. Great. When they come home, they don't know. They don't know where anything is. They don't know, like, what time kids have to be picked up, and women are doing all of the work stuff they're doing and also know where everyone that lives in their house is at every moment. And so it's.

[00:36:56]

I'd you just say, if you're listening and you're still on the fence.

[00:37:01]

Think about your mom.

[00:37:03]

Think about yourself.

[00:37:04]

You're on the fence of believing us or not.

[00:37:07]

No, it's definitely at least marketing scheme. If you still don't want to buy.

[00:37:13]

Our Tupperware for $19.99, we're going to slash that price right now.

[00:37:19]

Think about your mom and dad, and someone has a key to, like, the nuclear weapon, the codes. Who are you giving that key to? Oh, my God.

[00:37:32]

My mom. First of all, my dad's losing it, okay? The man doesn't even have an email address. They wouldn't even be able to give it to him. Okay? Also, just think about, like, going on vacation. Has anyone. Has anyone seen their dad pack not only for himself, but for anyone else in the home?

[00:37:53]

Why do. Whenever you go anywhere with your parents, your mom has a whole duffel bag for what everyone needs.

[00:37:58]

Your dad, incidentals.

[00:37:59]

Doesn't even have a wallet.

[00:38:01]

No, he has a clip.

[00:38:02]

No, he's running the world with a clip. I don't think so.

[00:38:05]

My dad has a rubber bandaid. My dad.

[00:38:08]

Our nation is being held on by a rubber band.

[00:38:12]

Literally a thread. Here's another example. Anytime you're with a man and you have a purse, they say, can I put my stuff in your purse? Where would they have put any of their things? Because they didn't think. They don't think about anything. They live so, like, moment to moment in the moment. And we're big picture.

[00:38:31]

You know what I would say? It sounds peaceful as fuck.

[00:38:34]

Mm hmm.

[00:38:35]

It sounds happy.

[00:38:35]

I wish.

[00:38:36]

And some would say, yes, men are less emotional. Cause they are living in the moment. Cause they can.

[00:38:40]

All I say to craig all day long is, wow. I wish I could date someone like me. And that really gets them. And if you. If your boyfriend is pissing you off, it's so subtle, but yet they will think about it for days. I say, wow, you have a great life. I wish that I could meet someone like me. Gosh, how less stressed I would be if someone just knew where all the things were in my home and didn't even live here. How crazy.

[00:39:08]

Now I do have to say, shout out to Des. I don't know how I did it, but I found a guy who. Cause he's been single for so long, has had to, like, function on his own. So he took him 47 years ago. 47 years.

[00:39:24]

A boot camp.

[00:39:25]

If someone would see his lifestyle, would they recommend it to people?

[00:39:28]

No.

[00:39:31]

Like, no one would be like, he's doing it. Well, but he is doing it, and he doesn't need me.

[00:39:37]

Right.

[00:39:37]

But, like, let's just say that when his nephew comes over, he goes, yay, we're going to Des. It's the messy place.

[00:39:44]

Yeah.

[00:39:45]

And we had friends over this weekend, and I said, you guys, there's no rules. Like, you can be messy here. Like, we don't have, like, pillows on top of pillows. Like, we don't do adult things. Guess why. Cause the woman doesn't have her shit together.

[00:39:58]

Right?

[00:39:59]

So if I don't do it, it won't be done.

[00:40:00]

It won't be done.

[00:40:01]

And I've just. Honestly, mom is busy right now. I have Fallon on Tuesday. I have. I can't get throw pillows.

[00:40:07]

Hannah, my boyfriend didn't pack for a two week trip. Didn't pack? Yeah. I don't think you're understanding it. Didn't pack.

[00:40:18]

Did his mom not help outfits for.

[00:40:20]

A trip we were on for two weeks. We got there the first day. He said, I really want to go shopping. I go, really? That's the first thing? Like, okay, yeah, I'll go shopping. He bought so many things. He wore them for the entire trip. And then I put together. Did you pack for this trip? He goes, no. Why would I pack when I'm gonna buy things here? So I'm just. I was having a hard time. I go, not only did I spend seven months putting my outfits together, then went through a month period where I gaslit myself that my outfits were horrible. Okay. So I was dealing with that mental process. So I don't. Again, how are you running the country?

[00:41:01]

Remember growing up, we actually were told women couldn't run the country because we were too emotional. That was actually the end of the argument. People were like, yeah. Cause women are emotional.

[00:41:12]

Right?

[00:41:12]

When meanwhile, I'm like, was my mom emotional when she had to raise two children with two jobs?

[00:41:18]

No.

[00:41:18]

And her own husband.

[00:41:19]

I've never seen my mom cry. Literally, I've seen my mom cry. I'm not kidding. I have seen my mom cry three times in my life.

[00:41:30]

Wait, you're so right.

[00:41:31]

I have seen my dad cry. Oh, my God. Probably 45 times.

[00:41:36]

Mom doesn't have time to cry. No, literally, my mom's shit.

[00:41:39]

She probably loved to schedule in a good fucking sob, but the bitch is busy. Like, she doesn't have the luxury of just letting one rip. Like.

[00:41:51]

And you know what? It all comes full circle. This is what happens when we skip a week. It gets too dark.

[00:41:55]

It gets too dark.

[00:41:56]

We've been working hard, obviously manifesting all these dreams, and then now, like, there's kids on the horizon, possibly.

[00:42:02]

For who?

[00:42:03]

Oh, not me.

[00:42:04]

Not. Well, not me. In the next stage, like, children are being. Children are being another generation for women. Yeah.

[00:42:12]

And then it's like you have to either teach him, which, again, is leadership, how to take care of the kids, or just become a lesbian.

[00:42:21]

Yeah.

[00:42:22]

My friend Becca's a lesbian, and she said parenting is so easy because they both are capable.

[00:42:26]

No. Do you want to?

[00:42:27]

She was like, Hannah, it's. It's the easiest thing I've ever done.

[00:42:30]

I think about lesbian couples so much. Well, one, because I'm, like, fully on lesbian TikTok, but, like, all I think about is, wow, your guys apartment must be so fucking organized.

[00:42:42]

Do you know before a date, it.

[00:42:43]

Must smell so good before a date.

[00:42:45]

They get ready together. Like, they curl each other's hair and they tell each other, this looks good. This looks cute. They get ready together.

[00:42:53]

All I've been looking is for someone to split the bill with my skincare. Just sharing bathroom products and clothes.

[00:43:03]

I think you have the potential. Your life can go many ways. Not to be psychic about it, but I could see you having kids, whatever. Even soon. Potentially Rome wedding or somewhere else in Italy. I'm getting a couple places in Italy.

[00:43:20]

You're getting a few visions.

[00:43:21]

Or you go full breaking bad and you have a full miley Cyrus Caitlyn Carter esque moment.

[00:43:27]

You want me to be a lesbian, so you want me to shave my head, become a lesbian? Do you not like who I am as a person? Maybe you want me to start wearing crocs, which is against my religion. Me and crocs know that about each other. No, it just, like. I, unfortunately, do love men.

[00:43:49]

It's a lot of talking about feelings.

[00:43:51]

That's the part I couldn't do.

[00:43:52]

Like, talk. Like, during sex, they're talking.

[00:43:53]

No, no.

[00:43:54]

And they're eating hummus.

[00:43:56]

I could do the hummus. No, maybe not during sex.

[00:44:01]

Jessica, Kirsten said they eat hummus and they talk about their feelings a lot.

[00:44:05]

No, I couldn't see.

[00:44:07]

Cause, des, sometimes I wanna keep talking about my feelings, which is not healthy. And he'll just start playing his golf game on his phone.

[00:44:14]

I am Des.

[00:44:14]

And I'm like, you know what? That's what I. I don't need someone enabling my, like, intrusive thoughts every time I have one. He's like, I've hit my limit for today. He'll hit. He's like, it's so healthy. Like, I'll be harping on something. As, you know, I harp. You do Harp? I'm a Harper. I will harp until there's nothing left to harp about.

[00:44:33]

And he's like, that's a baby name for you. Harper.

[00:44:35]

Harper. A little too southern. Not that Southern's bad. It just looks like.

[00:44:40]

Got it.

[00:44:41]

Sorority. Yep. He will literally put his foot down and be like, and I'm done with this today.

[00:44:46]

Yeah, no, there's so many times Craig and I need that speaking to me, and I just start playing tiktoks. I'm like, sorry, I didn't want to be rude and say I was done with this conversation. This was supposed to be that, and you're not getting it.

[00:44:56]

It's actually not rude. It means you really love the person. But I feel like, with friends, they shouldn't do that. Like, I would never do that to a friend.

[00:45:03]

No, I would. Well, no, I would never do that to a girl.

[00:45:06]

No. But, like, in a relationship, when you could tell, like, okay, you're trauma dumping, and I am enabling your trauma dump. Where. With friends. That's what friends are for.

[00:45:16]

No, there's nothing I love more than being with my friend and being negative.

[00:45:19]

About everything and honestly repeating the same.

[00:45:22]

Story, like, 400 times over and over and over. Because there might be a small anecdote that we didn't forget or we didn't.

[00:45:28]

Analyze it, or it could inspire a story we forgot to tell by repeating that other story.

[00:45:33]

I'm so hot, I might throw up.

[00:45:36]

Let's get into some things we're watching. Okay, so there's a lot going on.

[00:45:40]

No, I'm literally getting lightheaded.

[00:45:44]

Do you want to pause? Do you want to go water? Oh, no, we do not want baby. Wow. Okay. So she commented on giggly squad. I fear the dancing video is giving very much millennial energy, which is, you know, my biggest, like, insecurity.

[00:46:01]

Who did?

[00:46:01]

Grace.

[00:46:02]

Oh.

[00:46:03]

And it has 700 likes. So I watched a nickelback documentary.

[00:46:12]

Okay. You thought Grace thought you were a millennial with the dancing. This is insane. I didn't even know they were still alive.

[00:46:21]

They're literally, like, younger than us.

[00:46:23]

I know. I'm just kidding.

[00:46:25]

So it's basically about, like, why does everyone hate Nickelback?

[00:46:29]

Yeah.

[00:46:30]

Do you remember there was a time when Nickelback was just nickelback?

[00:46:32]

Yeah.

[00:46:33]

Which is shows our age. But, like, nickelback, they were fine.

[00:46:36]

Nobody hated them.

[00:46:37]

Look at this photograph. Yeah.

[00:46:38]

There's like, all of a sudden there was, like, this culture. Well, it was when they put their album. Oh, no. Was that nickelback, what they do? Who was the person that, like, you two went in the back of the eye? Everyone had it on their I've tunes.

[00:46:53]

Yeah. And then ask. There was no consent. No consent, no consent. And you two was on our. But you two's fine. You two's respected. Nickelback has become a meme. I think the guy's hair didn't do him.

[00:47:04]

I mean, look, I kind of feel bad for them.

[00:47:06]

You feel bad, but then you watch the documentary, and it's definitely made by them, and it's trying to make them more relatable, and you're kind of like, yeah, this guy doesn't deserve to be canceled. But, like, I don't.

[00:47:18]

Did they bring up how they became just a joke?

[00:47:22]

Yeah, it was like, literally. And the guy who's the main guy was like, the other guys in the band don't get it. Like, it's much harder for me because, like, I'm the star. I'm the face of the band, so everyone, like, hates me and knows who I am, but I'm also like, yeah, and that's what comes with being the star of the band.

[00:47:36]

Yeah, and maybe you're the reason why everyone. And he's the drummer's like, please leave me out of this. I literally haven't said a word.

[00:47:45]

He also, like, dated Avril Lavigne, which I think he did. Yeah, like, he's. And I don't know the man. But you didn't watch the documentary. Like, being like, that man deserves to get all the hate. He does not. But you didn't leave it, like, justice for that man.

[00:48:00]

I rarely leave an interaction with a man and think justice for him because.

[00:48:05]

I personally do not think they should get any hate, as in, they have such incredible music. They worked really hard to be where they're at. And, yeah, some people say it's corny or whatever.

[00:48:16]

I mean, there was a time where people, like, loved listening.

[00:48:19]

It was played more on the radio than the beatles. Someone argue they got so big, it got overexposed. But then people would be like, oh, it's like pop rock bullshit. And I'm like, if you think that's too poppy, then what about pop songs that are literally just, like, repeating a girl's voice over and over again. Like, you don't hate on music. It's like calling music hack when, like, some people enjoy it.

[00:48:41]

Right?

[00:48:41]

So that was my thesis on Nickelback documentary. I didn't love the documentary.

[00:48:46]

It on Netflix.

[00:48:49]

Netflix. But then I went to, I believe HBO to watch the Taylor Swift scooter Braun documentary.

[00:48:57]

Oh.

[00:48:58]

Which no one's been talking about.

[00:48:59]

No one's been talking about that. I saw that on the platforms, but I scrolled.

[00:49:06]

Yeah, I think, well, people were trying to be like, why is no one talking about this? She's the biggest artist in the world. And it's because when I was watching it, no one's hiding anything. It's actually not one. Not that interesting. And b, it's very pop news. Done. You tell it's done by a TMZ type thing, but long story.

[00:49:26]

I hate those documents because I get so excited for them, and I'm like, oh, this is a fake.

[00:49:32]

It's three journalists talking, and they say.

[00:49:34]

The same thing in different sentences.

[00:49:36]

100%. So the whole artistic vision was, the first one is Taylor's version of what happened, and the second one is Scooter Braun's version of what happened. But it's just, like, clearly journalists who hate Taylor Swift in the second one and journalists who love her in the first one. But what I gained from it, factually, is that Taylor Swift was offered her masters. If you don't know what masters are, which I didn't know. I still don't know. Masters.

[00:50:04]

Original.

[00:50:05]

No, no, not the original. It means, yeah, the original recording. So, like, she owns the song, the music, whatever, but those actual recordings are the masters. So when her whatever people were gonna sell it, they offered it to her. But they didn't just say, like, hey, you could buy it for whatever you want. They said you could buy it, but you have to do an album if you want the masters to a previous album. Every time you want the masters to a previous album, you need to do a new album for us. So that's nothing a good offer or fair or what she wanted.

[00:50:36]

Right.

[00:50:36]

So that's.

[00:50:36]

She didn't autom. You don't automatically. The label automatically owns the master.

[00:50:41]

Yeah.

[00:50:41]

Even though you own the rights to the song?

[00:50:44]

Yes.

[00:50:45]

Okay.

[00:50:45]

So that's why she was able to re record it. And she, like, I guess it was oversimplified, but she basically said, you know, I wasn't able to buy my masters. I wasn't even aware that he was selling it to scooter. Like, and she basically told her the swifties, like, make this known that this is wrong. So they all came for scooter and stuff.

[00:51:02]

Got it.

[00:51:03]

So Scooter is like, do you think.

[00:51:04]

Scooter is the name? He was born Scott?

[00:51:06]

I looks it up.

[00:51:07]

Oh, okay.

[00:51:07]

First of all, never trust a man that goes by Scooter.

[00:51:10]

Well, that's the biggest gripe I have here. How did we get from Scott to scoot to Scooter? It's just.

[00:51:18]

Just be Scott who has a nickname that's longer than their original name.

[00:51:23]

Sociopaths.

[00:51:24]

I don't like it.

[00:51:25]

I don't like it.

[00:51:25]

Giving Braxton.

[00:51:26]

It doesn't say what I didn't want to say the b word of. I didn't even say. I met Alex in Braxton at the wedding.

[00:51:32]

Wait, tell me, like, the scene. Give me the scene.

[00:51:34]

I was at. We were in San Tropez. I was at, like, a welcome. Sorry. I was in Saint Tropez, just at a five star resort in walks Braxton. No, I was at a, like, welcome party, like, wedding party, and I was with Rachel. Rachel from the bachelorette. Matt and Rachel. Matt James.

[00:51:55]

Okay. I've never met her, but we're, like, pretend best friends.

[00:51:59]

No.

[00:52:00]

Is she, like, a girl's girl?

[00:52:02]

I love her so freaking much.

[00:52:04]

Is she giggler?

[00:52:05]

I actually don't know.

[00:52:06]

We don't. But she's, like, friends with us.

[00:52:08]

Yeah, like, she gets it. She's our vibe.

[00:52:10]

Did you guys talk about me?

[00:52:12]

I don't know if we did talk about you. I'm so sorry.

[00:52:17]

Why did you not lead with me? Why'd you not lead. Hi, I'm Paige.

[00:52:21]

Do you know who Deanna Berner's best friend is? I go by Paige.

[00:52:24]

That's crazy behavior. Cause that's how I lead with people.

[00:52:26]

Because you want to know what? When I first really saw her, we were in a club also, you didn't.

[00:52:31]

Know that she and I. I didn't.

[00:52:33]

Know that you guys knew each other.

[00:52:34]

No, we don't know each other, but, yeah.

[00:52:35]

Got it. So I was with Rachel, and she was like, oh, my God, I have to introduce you to Alex. Cause she's friends with them. So I walked over, and I saw Alex, obviously. She's so pretty on the Internet, but she's so cute and pretty in person, and she just, like. I immediately felt like, oh, my God. I have to protect you. You're just like a young girl. I hugged her. She was like, oh, my God, I'm such a fan. I said, I'm such a fan of you. And then I turned to Braxton. I was so nervous, because I was like, no. We dragged your name for three years. All in good fun.

[00:53:06]

All in good fun and good faith.

[00:53:07]

So nice.

[00:53:08]

Do you think he saw the videos?

[00:53:10]

I don't know. Probably.

[00:53:12]

Okay. But it wasn't brought up.

[00:53:13]

But it wasn't brought up. It was very quick. And I wasn't like, oh, we got take a picture together or anything. I said, hi. We were very nice. And then, like, the party kept going. But they were so, like, normal. Just like, normal people and just, like, really cool. That's pretty much.

[00:53:30]

She's human. I touched her.

[00:53:32]

Yeah, she's a real person. She's alive.

[00:53:35]

She didn't have, like, snakes coming out of her hair.

[00:53:37]

No, but she. And it was just like being at a normal wedding. Like, everyone kind of chilled with, like, their table.

[00:53:44]

Yeah. We didn't even bring it up. Like, there's this crazy wedding that was going on. I think it got a lot of attention because it was, like, a vast amount of, like, not just influencers, but, like, I. Personalities and people, like, random. Did you tell your mom to shut up? And you don't pay taxes. You were at that party.

[00:54:01]

There were a lot of people at that party that in the third grade said, fuck you, mom.

[00:54:07]

And, yes, that actually, there was some drama. And I don't want to call you out, because it is the summer. You go to the wedding, and you post all these photos, and then your caption. And first I said, how dare they try to pit two women against each other. Paige writes something along the lines of, this was the greatest, most amazing, best, most beautiful wedding I've ever been to. What'd you say?

[00:54:33]

I said, the most gorgeous wedding I've ever been to. And I'm gonna be honest. When I was about to post that thread, I said, paige, you can't post a photo or post that.

[00:54:44]

You're such a millennial photo caption.

[00:54:48]

Carousel of photos.

[00:54:49]

Oh, dumb.

[00:54:51]

The dump. Grit.

[00:54:51]

Dump.

[00:54:52]

Whatever the kids are fucking saying. When I was gonna post all those photos, I was like, okay, I can't do a caption about me when it's I was at someone else's wedding. I can't not include a photo of a wedding that I was at and just act like, oh, I went on.

[00:55:06]

I can't not attack my best friend's wedding also.

[00:55:09]

So I was just like, I don't even know when I'm making this best wedding ever, but I feel like everyone says that for every wedding they've ever.

[00:55:14]

Been to, you're getting defensive. Breathe.

[00:55:17]

I'm hot.

[00:55:18]

Yeah, it is like 400 degrees here. Because we don't like the air conditioning. Cause it makes a bad sound in the back. So I. So are you making a statement?

[00:55:26]

I lied.

[00:55:27]

You don't have.

[00:55:28]

It was the most gorgeous wedding I've ever.

[00:55:32]

Can you at least do compliment sandwich and say something nice about my wedding?

[00:55:36]

Your wedding was the most fun I've ever had at a wedding.

[00:55:40]

Do you even remember my wedding?

[00:55:41]

No. And that's why I was so. I blacked out the second I got there. I remember you walking down the aisle, me crying. Talk about me never crying. I cried like a fucking baby at your wedding. To the point where Craig turned around and was like, are you seriously crying this much? I was like, that's my best friend. Like, you should get married.

[00:55:58]

That's so nice.

[00:56:00]

So your wedding is the most fun wedding I've ever been to. This was.

[00:56:03]

You could have put that in quotations.

[00:56:04]

Magical of a. Like, yeah, it was wild. The scenery, everything. The outfits, like it was when you're at a wedding.

[00:56:12]

Well, thank you for clarifying because I was getting a lot of tags and I didn't want to speak for you because I thought you were lying. Did you feel weird talking to the bride? When you go to a wedding, I always feel like it's like a celebrity that you don't want to bother eating dinner.

[00:56:25]

Honestly, stay away from the middle.

[00:56:28]

I feel like making eye contact with the bride is disrespectful and, like, you don't.

[00:56:31]

Don't even come to my table to say hi. You have so many other things to do. I feel like it's rude to actively want to talk to the bride and.

[00:56:39]

Groom to take any of their time.

[00:56:41]

Yeah. I'm like, who am I?

[00:56:42]

But then what if the bride is like, why is everyone ignoring me?

[00:56:46]

I honestly, they had so many people and so many different events that I truly do think they did, like, talk to, like, got to everyone.

[00:56:55]

Yeah.

[00:56:56]

But actually, I didn't talk to them at the wedding.

[00:56:58]

No. Out of respect.

[00:56:59]

Cause I talked to them the day before. What else was I to say?

[00:57:02]

Out of respect? Kendall Jenner wore your dress.

[00:57:06]

Kendall Jenner wore a navy blue Jacquemus dress. And everyone was like, oh, my God, she looks so good. This is insane. Sorry. I already wore it to meet Victoria Beckham. So then Kendall is a giggler.

[00:57:18]

Kendall's a giggler. Could have tagged.

[00:57:21]

Could have tagged. Could have said, I was listening to Paige meet Victoria Beckham, and she wore a stunning outfit and I was like, I'm gonna wear that. Maybe she is a giggler because of Hailey. Let's talk about Justin Bieber reposting you.

[00:57:37]

Honestly, it's a weird thing with the phone. Cause, like, you see it, but it doesn't really process register. It's not like you're like. He was like, hey, Hannah, that's a funny post. I'm sharing it.

[00:57:47]

If there's one man in the arts we support, it's just.

[00:57:51]

No, yeah. Just like, went on my phone and I started getting mentions like crazy, and I hadn't done anything. And I'm like, this is weird. And then the gigglers were sending me a screenshot and it was crazy because it was the only story he posted.

[00:58:04]

I also feel like we manifested that because the first time we ever did a live show, I walked off stage and I said, I understand what Justin Bieber feels.

[00:58:12]

Justin Bieber feels connected to us.

[00:58:13]

And I feel like in the universe, I was like, us and Justin Bieber.

[00:58:18]

But I also wonder, like, did he watch it and think, like, wow, that was good. That was hilarious.

[00:58:24]

Yeah.

[00:58:24]

So that's really funny. But, yeah, we didn't even talk about Hailey. I actually. I don't think I even told you. Cause I wanted to annoy you. Did I tell you I was interviewing Hailey?

[00:58:33]

No, you didn't.

[00:58:34]

Oh, yeah, I wanted to annoy you.

[00:58:35]

No, we talked about this on the pod.

[00:58:37]

We talked about on the podesthe. Oh, yeah, we did the belly bump and everything. So, yeah, that was just the aftermath with Justin. But I get it. It's kind of like when me and you hang out and Craig tries to facetime us because he knows we're having fun, which is, like, valid, right? They want to, you know.

[00:58:51]

What are you talking about? What's going on?

[00:58:52]

Are you talking about me? Are you involved? Final thought. Oh, yeah. I'm watching breaking bad.

[00:58:58]

Still get over.

[00:58:59]

I think it's finally starting to get good at, like, season. I'm one of those people that's like season 73. I kind of like where the plot's going.

[00:59:08]

Yeah.

[00:59:08]

So that. Are you watching anything besides Love island?

[00:59:12]

Just my life fall apart. Pretty legit.

[00:59:16]

With that said. Tuesday, 03:00 a.m. eastern. No idea. Mountain time, midnight.
