Giggling about perfectionism, parties, and padel — May 22, 2026 — starts at 0:00
Step kiding. Sry, fix a liPx Mful that it We can't be maned What's up my greasy gigglers? It's Friday, Friday. Everyone's on on Friday you know, I I got dressed this morning and I was like, Ohh my Godd,'s so cute, L preppy, she's giving Beach house, she's giving second home. And then I got on the Zoom and I'm like, I'm just dressed like Hannah. When you do it, it's chic I'm obsessed with that you look like you're in boarding school and just gave your first handand job and you don't know what to do, and you don't know if it went well or not. And like it's sticky and like it kind of smells. No one warns you No one tells you that it does in fact smell That's something you learn on your own. His dick The cal, I would say. Oh I try not to get that close. I think the first time I was like Guys Gross. I would go into it, but I'm pretty sure I have a Fifteen minute bit about How back in the day we used to like swallowing stuff on my upcoming special. So anyway, we're gonna have to save that. Anyway, wait, I wanted to bring up your special because I wanted to make it about me for a minute Please, please for, pase How you know that you have a true real friendship with someone? No, seriously, listen to this Like it's so easy to be happy when your friend is happy. L, Oh my God, like we're going out tonight or like something, whatever But when your friend is stressed, now mind you when you were filming this special, I was getting a massage, but I knew I knew how stressed you were for the trailer to come out that like when it did get posted, I felt relief. I was like you. And now she doesn't have to worry about that, you know. Well, you also sent me the cutest, sweetest, funniest text. She goes, I realize I never texted you for your trailer and I had a parocial relationship instead. cononggrats, which is basically, she commented on every photo I posted. She reposted everything. She was on a full PR campaign for me yesterday and then was like, Hey, sorry I didn't text you directly. Are you mad? And Well I was like, I'm no better than someone on Reddit. Like I literally made up that I have a friendship with this woman Every now and then when you do something like really big, I turn into a fan and then I'm like, Should I text her? Is she really pusy right now? Is she doing it right now? Like is she on set now We had an airport moment where I was like, I'm going to show you this trailer and I just want to see your thoughts. and that was like the test. L you didn't realize it, but if you didn't have a decent reaction to it, and I didn't need you like laaughing hysterically, I just I just know when you like something Yeah. And you had a great reaction. and I was like, I don't go fuck Paige liked it. we're good. And that's how you have to be with creativity. Like if the people you care about love it as much as you do You go for it. And also we're just talking about the trailer right now, but I'm just a real perfectionist. You really are, It's actually exhausting. You think my hair isycling exhausting. is exhausting Listening to you like make art is so exhausting. Well people don't talk about it. I'm a Virgo moon. people never talk about it N brought up in any of these, you know, thought things that people post. It's not brought up because no one I feel like I have a front row seat to you as a businesswoman It's not. it's to not relax There's nobody I know other than Hannah that will start something and then halfway through be like, this is horrible. I can't believe you guys even let me get this far. I'm changing the whole thing. When I fail, I feel fast and I love to move, I love change. I will pivot. I'm a pivoter, but also by the way Just so you guys get a glimpse behind the curtain. So Grace sends us all these clips from what happened on the pod and Paige literally is like, loveve, cute. Can you actually like Change the background of that or like, can you not use my face in that one? Well, sometimes Grace picks the most diabolical screenshots of me, and I'm like, Grace act like you've met me before. Grace thinks you're beautiful in every angle, that's whyine. And I will come in and be like, Grace, atzo point four seconds, there's like two and I'm like, we can't post this. This is not good enough. And then I'll be like, atzo point seven five seconds, you have to cut that faster and then like do actually like a CGI moment over my head when I say this joke. Paige doesn't respond. Grace and I are in like eight hours of editing Imike Hannas Get getting colorors giving orange, so maybe we change the lighting. And everythingthing else is guys are crushing Can you make the handah look aesthetically pleasing for like a second? But that's the thing.ike when I'm with an outfit, I'm like, I'm stressed about editing clips. I don't have time My favorite thing is like when we talk about merch and you say, Paige, what do you think? I'm like, sorry, it's my time U Also actually we don't know where Grace is. She's supposed to be on this virtual we don't know where she is. and Paige said, tellell Grace to join at her own leisure. and I just want to say shout out to you for like thinking of words. I talk for a living, but I actually don't do words You talk for a living, you love a word Well, you know what? notot like a full sentence, a word. It's true I could make one word my whole personality. I love a word that has an alternative rich person way to say said word. M for ye Yes, like for you. like I love someone that would be like, oh my go Lisure, but then there's like a rich woman that says leisure. like actual leisure. Like I like Um feel like I feel like I've Like, okay, actually this is so crazy. You know like the word mature? Sometim one time I heard this woman pronounce it mature And I I literally remember where I was, how old I was, what I was doing when I heard that because I was like Oh my go, she's not like other girls. Well, not to talk about my husband because that's annoying, but Be he grew up in Europe, he says some funky ass words. And at first I'm like, you are so dumb, You say that word wrong and And then he's like Google it and I'm like,h's the European way, you're actually better than me, sorry Sorry I actually do think that sometimes I can have ight Sorry whenever thought Iver I thought for rarainom explodes I saw this girl she made this TikTok and she was talking about how Women There's like a bunch of people that will do like She's talking about women. that will do full studies on linguistics and the separation between men and women and things they say. And she was talking about how women say like a lot. And I mean, I've never, but some other women. But like how women are like, oh my God, all she doest say like and like like that we have a lot of filler words And some girl commented the video and was like, I'm actually learning about this for like my thesis in linguistics or whatever. And she said Fr like all the studies people have done, women don't get to talk a lot So we actually put filler words in because if there is a silence, typically the other person will immediately start talking. So we almost have to add in filler words to keep our place to let the other person know we are not done speaking And I was like My God, we're just trying to take up space Where Why am I get emotional? Why am I getting emotional like right now? And the girl that made the like initial video was like, I would never hate on another woman for using filler words or like or having like a valley accent because it is most common in women. And so why would I hate on another woman for being a woman? I also love a woman who speaks slow Like This. I'm take waste a man's time Wte a man's time and actually never get to the thought, never fully get to the thought Wow, now I think of everything differently What were we saying though before We literally just started the pod and we're ready. We never had a direction, I actually think. I mean, we're talking about the trailer. If you approve A lot of the giglers approveved but they have to wait for you to coign before they jump on board Well, it's funny because I had a lot of gigglers in my DMs seeing if they could figure out what exact second. I said, why your hair looks so good like that. But you know what happened? You saw the wide trailer that's on YouTube This was cut down so you actually couldn't see the full hair Um So anyway. alsoso Lenore is visiting right now Be so the plac is spotless. You know, like you clean before like a hookup comes over. That's nothing like the way I clean before my mother comes over. I do like to leave her some things because she likes to have a hobby and she really likes to do the dishes. That's like her thing. So I let her have fun But like Des and I were cleaning like we've never cleaned before. We were so scared. Wait really? Yeah. We woke up early Oh, that's serious. We woke up early and I was like, come on. we got to go and we were like I mean, this is what normal people do like once a week, but Do you know that I don't think I've ever seen you clean? L like I don't think I've seen I'm a feminist ' I'm feminine. Wait now that I think about it, I don't think I've ever seen you take like a spray bottle and spray something. I do just say Cleaning takes initiative And when you grow up in an Italian household where like the women take over, I'm never used to taking that initiative. you have to just Even if you're at someone'souse and I realize like you just have to start cleaning And everyone respects it, but I see it as like invasive. I'm like, I'm not gonna touch your table. Like I wouldn't walk into someone's home and open up their refrigerator. So why would I open up their cleaning supply closet? hundred percent? I do think too, there's something about dinner. I always hated how like when we were done eating, all the women got up and took everyone's plates. And you call me lazy, but I was like, no, the men can take my plate. Why is the whyy are the women doing this They already cooked it all What happens at your family holidays now an Okay, well Man and papa are perfect and adorable. Mana cooks And she takes the plates, but then papa loves cleaning. Like Papa is handles all the dishes and that's how my mom and dad are too. I just never like when all the men are sitting down and the women are at work I'm like, what is this? Did you have chores as a child Well, this is also, this is kind of the problem is that I had a full time job. I was just playing tennis So it actually inhibited my chores where like And there we go. Des doest And that's And and we've just figured it out. Well yeah, because I'm not good at it. so I don't want to embarrass myself in front of other people by being like That's why you put the dishes in the dishwasher. I actually tried do the dishes and Des was like never again This is chaos. He's like, I'm not that's not I mean, what do you how how bad, can you mess up loading a dishwasher I guess some people like it more organized where I'm like, if there's an opening, it's like tetris. You just figure it out Well cups are on the top plates on the bottom. Yes. However sometimes you don't have a cuverred plate, you have like a weird shaped bowl and I try to just shove it Um We all have ourite quirks. We all rem But I The truth is after school, I go to tennis practice, I get home at eight PM. I have to do my homework. and I think my parents were like The girl has enough to it on. She can't do it. She's sired. I played Paddle this morning How is that Well, I want everyone to know it's different than pickleball. I'm not like on the dark side. You don't have to like call the police. I'm not playing pickleball. Hannah actually texted me and said, Can we push the pod one hour because I'm playing paddle? And I And you know me, I don't know sports or anything. but I know I've heard her talk about it before. And I said, wait, just checking in because one time you did say, don't ever let me play paddle or I will get arrested. And she takes it back and goes, nope, that was pickleball. And I said, great Yes, yes Also sorry, I can't take you seriously because you dress like me right now and I've lost respect for you. I'm like, what is she talking about? Like you He, one day we should do a pod and I'll be you and you be me. And we just talk the whole time, like what we think the other would say I would just immediately start crying about my dad grandpa No I actually had a dream about it the other week and it's like, why are you wecoming my dreams I had a dream the other week and my mom told me like gossip in the dream. Like she was And I had and I woke up And I went to my Instagram because I was like, is this how I get messages now? Link my mom sends them to me in a dream And I woke up and I had to like check my Instagram for something to see if it was like true and real, but it wasn't But I sat in it for a little because I was H be witching. Yeah, because I was like, no, I had a dream that my mom came and whispered something in my ear. And so and right when I woke up, I was like, my mom just told me something. And that's really scary But anyway, I do I do feel like I want to play sports, I want to be athletic. I want sw. It's not done, but my battle storyies. I woke up to play at nine AM which is early for me And then it was so hot and I was so tired after it, I was like, I need to cancel all my plans. L Hold on, wait. just like to take it back for a minute. What is the difference between Paddle and pickle ball? So Paddle's European, which makes it cool. Okay. People in Spain and then South America play it. It's cultured.'s It's way more advanced than pickleball. Got it. Pickleball is like is with a freaking for kids. What is a what is is with a Wiffle ball, which is so funny, imagine someone being like Wiffleball iss now a sport. and like all these people are just like, Do you remember Whiffleball as a kid? Yeah, I thought it was stupid. Yeah it was for the un athletic baseball players. So anyway, but look, if you're playing pickle, I totally support you. It's just as a tennis player, we get like hate in the community, and like I could only handle so much. Within the industry and we can't with an industry. I love getting How many industries can we get in trouble with? My favorite is gossiping to Paiage about sports drama and stand up comedy drama. 'causeuse like you have no I was gonna say gun in the fight. That's not No skin in the game. No skin in the game. Thank you. You should hear me when I tell other people tennis gossip 'causeuse I'm like, and that's what I heard from my friend And they're like, Do you know any of these people? I'm like, No, and that's what makes it so good like we were in Tour, we were running out things to talk about. And I would like see something on my Instagram of people you definitely didn't know and I go, These people are getting divorced, You you wantan to know why To make her interested, you have to start from the beginning Like I'm like, she was born in a small town And you were locked in God.

So we get a lot of emails and let me tell you something. The gigglers are animated. like they're giving you the plot. They're giving you the full story. They're giving you why they've chosen Cloud over white stripe because it's just like not aesthetically pleasing and the background know like they feel like because they also think you might be judging them. like I know that yellow seems like a weird choice. I swear this like sunflower aesthetic just And they're like, let me send you my pinterest because I feel like I could break it down more for you. No, so I do think sometimes they're like, well, what if she's reading this email? which sometimes I am. So that's how we found this girl. had a Baate of honor email in and say like she was planning a bachelorette and it was going to be in New York City. So I was like, oh, this is a perfect bachelorette to crash because I'm right here C to find out. So we're like talking to the maid of Honor. We're like, what if? Page surprise the bride The Maid of Honor adds another girl to the email and she goes, actually, she knows more about the logistics This girl emails and goes, okay, so that was actually the bride and she's so type A that she was pretending to be me and asking for the order.

You're just in a basement with a headset and you're like, the eagle has landed So they get there, my Daphne employees give them like a bunch of matching shirts and matching sets and everything that they wanted. And then they went and sat down and were like, okay, have so much fun. like sorry Paage couldn't come whatever. Then like two minutes later I brought over like champagne to the table It was so fun and just like a like easy quirky, fun, cute thing. Like it was a great like kickoff of her bachelor atte weekend. Like I just felt like it was such an adorable moment I also imagine youre doing things Like without me and I'm like, how Becauseuseally normally I'm like hatching get out of the house. If we were doing it, I would have jumped and you'd been rolling her eyes in the background. But like you surprising someone on your own, I'm like, but she's so like ch You actually've never spoken to something. I'm like she's never really exclaimed before. but you I saw the video, you come to your little kitten heels and you're just like Well, you want to know its so far I' scared the shit out of them. I would be like During the whole thing, I didn't know what to do with my hands. I know I know I was like Okay we' ladyies you for grabbing them 'use I was like He, I'm just like a small small girl. No just so shy. You guys know what I' She' so She's so shy So then when you do, Difficult things like that. I'm always like, oh my go, look at her navigating the world and her kitt heel. Also like surprising someone is It's tough because you're like, what if they don't respond the way you want it? And then once you're there, I'm like, what do we talk about? So how are you? I was very I was nervous to surprise them, but I was nervous that to surprise them because I thought they like knew And I was like, I didn't want them to be like, oh yeah, obviously like here'sl forgot Paderette. so I got like a little nervous But they were so sweet and it sucks that they have like a horrible weather weekend. but Well at least in the city doing like fun indoor things. They sent me like the powerowerPoint for the whole wedding weekend. so I knew like what the vibe was for all the outfits. And like there's nothing I love more than a powerPoint that a girl makes that has nothing to do with her job. And like because they're so helpful and resourceful, like who the girl that made this powerPoint She was like, think skirts, shorts, pants, like I'm like so closees.. like she gave a vibe of like she should g what you guys should wear. And I'm like so everything is acceptable and a go. That reminds me of us and one of our important Zooms, which is just that should be a show in itself. because Pai and I were like just listening to people talk But I felt like we should say anything and they were like, Are you ready? We have a presentation? And I just go We love PowerPoints And they're like,, okay. And we're sitting there and then at the end they go Paige, you have any questions and she goes I'm just happy there wasn't a quiz at the end of that This' gonna be a quiz H we got off the call because someone had to crack a joke, you know. I literally almost interrupted and was like What in the eighth grade science class? Because I've almost fallen asleep seven tim. The whole point of a PowerPoint is you get to press and surprise people with a funny photo I texted Hannah while we were doing it because I had literally in the moment come up with the most genius thing I've ever come up with, I could not stop yawning. So all I kept doing was rubbing my Because you couldn't see that I was yawning. I was like every now I screenshot page in these zooms. And by the way, it's not with like three people. There's like twenty people. And but I'm watching her. belieelieve me, I keep an eye on her. I always watch I'm watch the whole time. she can't help Oh, and well wait for what I'm going to say about you Okay she goes come for me. No, but like I screen Ja and send it to the group chat just so great to knows how you're representing us in a public world.. Well, sometimes she pulls out her skincare, which like at that point, I'm just like, that's. that's only that I know. Yeah. But sometimes like like I feel like I pretend smile in this life way more than you, which like I'm jealous of. I wish I could have your confidence. I'm fake smiling twenty four seven I'm like Paige is just sitting there like Well, you've made yourself a clown for the people. I didn't tell you to do that. Dude like people expect People interact with you and they're always laughing. So they expect you to also be in a joke. It hard being a light in this dark world. Yeah, and I've given I'm this close to a panic attack. donon't push me. And so say no. I was that lou? I just like So what do you have to say about me? Okay, miss performative Hannah's in the Zoom doing performative chin grabbs. L she's cant. like she's contemplating a goddamn thing. She also I abit you go what are you Colonel mustard in the library with a revolver? L you're trying to look It' so crazy. I think everyone's watching me. I like think people are watching me and I have to show it other day w. Yeah Also, do you know what I'm doing I'm hiding my double chin. Okay, the other thing that I think you do that literally could make me burst out laughing at any moment that I actually have to look away sometimes is you nod and it sounds it sounds innocent enough, but she does it in a like Hey, that's a really good point. never thought of that. and I'm like they didn't even sing. Okay, I'm an active listener. I'm look, I'm an empath. And when someone's speaking and no one's reacting, see know, you know how you feel for inate objects? That's how I feel for real people. And no, like when they're talking and no one's reacting, I'm like, come on, someone has to give them a little positivity so but you know, that's why I don't like social situations because by the end I should win an Oscar Well I have a team meeting every two weeks. and last week I said, guys, what are we doing here? This is an off camera zoom. I get out of my face. like don't. Were you there for our last off camera zoom I'm the one that started it And guess who didn't finish it? Yeah, I showed up and didn't go off camera. Oh, ye yeah. I was the first one on with one other girl and I said, Hey, you're either with me or you're against me. Turn your camera off. and she goes, I'm with you, absolutely. Everybody else joins. They're go, Ohh, it's a no camera zom I go I show up two minutes late. And it shows up wo minutes late D didn't have to do the intros, I guess I'm just gonna be camera on She's like on camera and I just was like, wait, I love attention. And then everyone was talking, and I was nodding for them. But the truth is, if I'm off camera, I can't trust myself. I'm off camera I'm playing tennis. L if I'm on camera, I'm petting my cat, I'm not listening to anyone But if I'm on camera, I have to look at least like I care and then care more. W, I love how we just did twenty minutes about Zoom calls, but I feel like it's relatable No, that's like really pertinent to my everyday life. so yeah. like we use legal jargon in everyday life. Yeah I love a little Zoom joke in the beginning and then I could calm down once I get the laugh. I'm like Yeah, My quiz joke was pretty good on that Zoom. I was really fucking funny. I always laugh a little too hard and everyone's like, okay. I guys know each other Okay so I've been having a full woman in stem moment lately because I got some new plants, you know, planting, watering, sunlight, fertilizer, all of that. It's giving science experiment, but in the actual best way. And there's nothing more rewarding than watching something you planted grow I've been getting my plants from fast growing trees. They're the largest online nursery in the country, and they have literally every plant you could even think of, from trees and shrubs for your yard to fruit trees, cute houseplants, and more And the best part is fast growing trees actually makes it impossible to fail. They have real live plant experts to talk to you if you have questions and every plant is backed by their alive and thrive guarantee. So you can honestly just ask if you are actually killing your plant or not. I love to get a fresh orchid every couple of months because I do in fact kill them But with fresh growing trees, I've been going pretty strong. And right now, gigglers can get twenty percent off their first purchase at fastgrrowingtrees dot com slash giggly. That's twenty percent off at fastgrrowingtrees dot com slash giggly. Your plant parent era starts now Okay, I need to talk about Sephora because if you're looking for the newest, hottest beauty products, they are only at Sephora. And you guys know I love finding the products everyone is about to become obsessed with before they completely sell out, like the one size liquid blotting paper spray, Unreal. It's the first of its kind blotting spray that mattifies for up to eight hours. I'm also deeply attached to the summer Fridays's shade Drops fifty because it somehow makes you look effortlessly put together even when your life is not even get me started on the K Alli fragrances. I wore K Allie Eden Blush pair the other day and three separate people asked me what I was wearing. It has become my entire personality. What I love is theephora makes it so easy to discover your next favorite makeup, skincare, hair or fragrance product all in one place, especially the products everyone's talking about right now So if you want to stay ahead of the beauty group chat, shop the newest, hottest beauty products only at Sephora This episode of Giggly Squad is brought to you by FIFA World Cup, Meil at McDonald's World Cup season just got a whole lot more fun. Right now at McDonald's, when you order the FIFA World Cup meeal, you get one of nine legendary collectible cups. And we're talking legends Christian Pelisic, David Beckham, Thieri Hri, Alfonso Davez, and everyone's favorite purple player, Grimace. The girlies are collecting all nine and that is final. Order the FeF Worlds Cup meeal at McDonald's All Tournament Long this summer and see which legend you get There are nine cups total, so you have a very good excuse to keep going back We will be there every week. At participating McDonald's for a limited time, while supplies last, All rightights Rerved, twenty twenty six, McDonald's at FIFA World Cup, twenty twenty six So summer's upon us, which is crazy, but I was like looking at bathing suits and I love cheap bathing suits. Yeah, but I don't know, because I'm not like doing a photoot in them? Like I'm just trying to be in the pool or the be. You're playing games. I'm playing g. Yes. Yeah. Yes. Or I'm sprinting. I'm swimming. I'm racing, I'm doing I'm a m. I're doing activities. So It's impossible to lay out with you. Yeah, you're not No You have to be actively engaged The only time you can really lay out is if we're discussing something that we've discussed eight million times, but there's one new fact and we're beating that fact, beating that fact with a dead horse, then you can lay and can because you're actively doing something. But if it's like the same old shit, you're like, should I like hit a tennis ball and we'll talk about this? Well, the good thing about our friendship is It's eight years of drama We can pull from so much. The archivals are Archive is it. Looking good And we rotate. But I got like some TikTok advertisement for a bikini. lookedautiful. I clicked it one hundred and ninety five dollars for not the full bikini For the bottoms What Yeah. I mean, it's one of these like nice ones, but like What is its underwear? What is in this bikini that's one hundred and ninety five dollars and it's separate. So that's a four hundred dollars bikini Make it m as okay As a designer, as a fashion mogul, make it makes sense to me How do they get to those numbers? It's hard to justify because it's such a small piece of clothing. And what is it made out of that makes like, isn't it just like ass I would assume it's probably mostly spandex Is that like really pricey? know But like I don't know what swim material I don't know how hard it is to make swim because I don't even know what that's like made of I don't know, I think it's like a real rip It's a real rip. you were shopping on, do you remember what website? or like do you remember like? It was like a brand L a swim brand or it was like a clothing brand that had swim. but it was like it was nice. Like it had like two hundred No bathing suits are tough Here's the thing that is hard to justify spending so much on bathing suits is because a lot of the time Unless it's like a very good quality bathing suit, I would say a lot of the time after two summers, it's kind of like dingy and gross and you have to get a new one anyway. L it goes through it. Yeah, you go through them faster than other articles of clothing. Do you know what makes me mad It's because It feel like they're pulling something over our eyes where that I'm like, what the fuck am I supposed to do with one weird colored bottom? You hate getting duped putut it in a set Put it, it's like being like, hey, this earring is two hundred dollars this one earring. Like obviously I need to buy the other earring. Wa O time I ordered earrings and it was what was the It was it was like a brand that was they had a store in the West Village, I think. It was like super big at the time. Something like it was like a woman's name, somethingomething like Tasha or like I forget, whatever And I'm like and everyone's getting these like little mini dainty earrings. and I'm like, I have to. So I go online and I like see the earrings that I want and I'm like, great, I'm gonna to get this. It was like one hundred ninety five. I was like, that's insane, but like whatever. I get it. It comes in the mail, it's just one And I'm like Is this a fucking joke? And like clearly someone like messed up like the other earring and you like get on customer service and they're like No, we send them we sell them individual like they thought I was stupid. Yeah Yeah. And I didn't realize it was like because every girl was doing like multiple piercings So they just send it like one. but I'm like it's a pair. I have two ears. And meanwhile, men have three and one Jampoo But we're paying for one bikini bottom How are we gonna to take over the patriarchy when like we're out a month's rent for half a bikini You know, it's something that would send me into a coma now that I would have like died for in high school as men in earrings. I never went that gay So I would say I've gone Gayer. No you have you have. and you have. And they were good friends. This is my question Was it A little mini hoop. Was it a dangle Junzie or just a stud. St Yeah. Okay,, there was a time where guys with one stud, he was naughty. You're like, that's a bad boy. One stud No, I liked double. I liked. I liked Cubic zirconium all the way around You would have loved the Staten Island guys You would have lost your mind at the Staten Island Mall in two thousand six. You would have been like dry humping at a hot topic Well, you know, what's funny is like remember when Facebook came out and we had like we're just like in the kind of in the beginning of high school that like we could have it. And did you ever like happen upon like Your friends, cousins, boyfriends, sister who like lives in a different state. L I remember the first time I ever saw like a New Jersey prom Like on Facebook, you were and just me like real Wait a minute. L I don't know what's going on in my body, but I like these guys It's funny because I heard that you're from Albany and I was like, o, I didn't know they had Italians that like up north. I thought they all were in Bro Jersey, New Jersey I didn't know they made them in the cold like that Well, because my family didn't come through Ellis Island. Do you think you're better than us? No. How did they get here then? My like great grandpa came over illegally as like a stowaway, but through like a port in Boston. and he had like a cousin in Albany. So that's how he was a cousin Yeah, it was like wherever you could get a job. And so we didn't have anyone in New York City yet. so no one lived there Look at you with the historical fact. I mean, there's definitely like there was definitely like a part of Albany that was all Italian at some point. No, I didn't like go to he I didn't have like school girlfriends that were Italian in the way I was Italian. L maybe they were a little Italian, but they didn't either like celebrate the way I did on holidays and like their mom certainly didn't yell at them the way my mom did. so I'm like She doesn't love you. I'm like, did you just tell your mom to shut up That's crazy No, I love the Jersey vibe and I also love yeah, I don't know what age that changed that I was like I would never date someone with an with two earrings, but now I'm like That's so terrifying. Although the thought of like being able to share earrings is nice. Everything I say it's just like, P' a lesbian. was come out. I' like but you can have the same wardrobe. And that would be convenient Because I like said something and some girl made a TikTok and she was like, I literally said this right before I came out. P Hage and I were famously on the phone and I said to her, I feel like every friend group has in the closet lesbian. And Paage said Nine in my friend grouwp and I said That's how you know So you're the one. guys think you think I don't want this? I want this. My life would be so much easier. Yeah. I could see like, you know then that one random like really girl or girl dated Miley Cyrus. Like ye, if you did meet the right girl, you'd have like the happiest life, but I don't know if that's for this lifetime. I just know the right girl could swpe you off your feet. Here's the only reason and dare I jump in on this conbo. The only reason I say that I'm not is because from the moment I was little and I saw a boy, like I knew I loved boys. I genuinely think that's why my mom made me go to an all girls high school because she knew I loved boys. Yeah. I also feel like if I came out, people would be like, boo boring It's like so much more exciting for you to come out. It wouldll be so exciting. 'ause I'm lesbian passing I identify as straight, but I'm a lesbian in passing, and that's why like I'm so close to the community and not all gay guys like me. E though because they get letesss be in vibes for. But no, there' gay guy that is my heart and my soul. Yeah You know, I've been hearing more and more people talking about gayays gays versus like girls gazays Really? Well, there was like a lot of discourse on TikTok, I feel like about how there was a guy. didid you see the guy with the whole solid core thing Yeah Okay, so that sag I didn't we talked about it like in the very beginning. Is it still going Hannah, it's still going on and I don't know all the details if you want to look it up. I think it was in like Darianne, Connecticut, I want to say. This guy from Connecticut who who's like putting Solidcore on blast all the time. But it was this gay man who would go to Solid Core and he would go to like the earliest class every day and something happened. I think he like was recording the instructor and she might have been like late one day or something. And they were like, please don't like record the instructors, like don't put this on the internet, whatever. and he was like totally like, but like she was late And then something else happened and he got in trouble for something else. And they emailed him and they were like, you can't do this. And he was like totally like so sorry about it. And then something else happened That like he was like, I didn't do this. So now he's almost at like three strikes. The last thing he did, I guess, was he's in the parking lot before the class even starts early in the morning. Like I think he goes to like the six AM. So say they're in the parking lot at like five forty five. Also, that is when you should be in RM sleep. Nothing good happens before seven AM or after one AM. Nothing could ever happens before seven AM. And I guess he was like yelling the instructor's name. and I think the instructor kind of got a little like, wait, like are you like really mad at me? Like again, like it is a man at the end of the day all these girls were making TikToks about certain gay men that have been like really mean to them, whether it be like in their friend group or like in a work setting or something. And I'm like Yeah, it's happened to me a couple times and it's very jarring because it's like No but we get each other. You're like, you're supposed to be my side. canan I talk you for a second? ye. There are some men It doesn't matter what. seexuality they are that yeah are misogynistic. There's women who are misogynistic just keep an eye out in these streets Obviously gay men can relate to us on so many things. likeike I had this one friend who she was like She was saying how one of her gay guy friends like said something about her being that while she was pregnant And she was like, and it just like really Iconic I'm like Who was this skay? Let meet him. She was saying like I like hurt her feeling. She was like, I'm so hormonal and he kept saying like you have to be pregnant with twins. And she was like, and I'm not pregnant You're crying 'cause that's gonna be you. I'm gonna cry so much. I already know. It's going be so hard for me I'm been be pain all day. All I think about is my short torso and that's because of you. I was never scared of that before. Hge not to be depitive, but remember how much you loved freezing your eggs and the hormones because you finally felt Alive youing I have a lotab I felt druck.

And I was like, wow, he thinks I'm so good looking. thenen he came up to me. And he was like, I just have to let you know, I love your comedy because on Netflix, there's not a lot of like gay male representation So like your feminine comedyy is like the closest I can relate to because I don't relate to other comics And he was like, and through you, I've been introduced to other like queer comics and artists and like, thank you for being a voice like that we needed And I was like, I'm Lady Gaga. If there's one game man in my audience I go it's really hard being Lady Gaga U You're like, I'm being the voice of a community Kan are you in a meet dress? I feel like is You should do that when you're for Halloween. But also like being straight is so boring. all I want to B is an ally more interesting people I want this world. Well, you want to know why being straight is annoying because it's so predictable. You got married, you had kids and then you cheated. Yeah, we saw that you know, it's just like our lives are so predictable where the gays like They go out, they they They're doing things with different people. They're like they're all over the place. Also, they're naturally traumatized because they were told by society that like what they do isn't the norm. So they're naturally been through shit that made them grow, which makes them hilarious So anyway, just reminding all the gaglers how much we love you and any man that's in the closet listening right now Wait, what are you doing for the holiday weekend? Do you have any plans? Oh, Lenore's visiting And she's getting min petty right now. and she watched me play paddle and we might Well, she loves a mental health walk. Lenor loves and she goes a walk. She goes fast. Also, we're going to Vegas for the American Music Awards. Oh fun. 'cause you had a wedding Yes I do. I have a wedding the middle of the week. I do have to say I did find out I do have one wedding because it seems kind of depressing to me being like, I have new weddings and then I felt like everyone was like talking about me, like, well she doesn't any friends There's a wedding that doesn't tell me about that I am invited to. So not your friend, God Sorry all my friends are sluts. Sorry, they're all business sluts Kudo Who don't want paperwork involved? Sorry, my friends have rejected the patriarchy. Sor my friends haven't settled Yeah, sorry I'm the only friend He's got paperwork involved. Did you see sports illustrated They were like, Alex, El, can you ask Hannah some questions about dating And I was like, o my like what am I gonna to say to Alex Earl? dating? I'm like, Alex Earl, Like I literally haven't sent likeike a good flirty text in a minute Even though back in my day. you still have it in you. I have it in me and I do u. Moonlight. for a lot of relationships, but like I haven't put myself out there obviously, but she was asking me questions about dating and then at the end, I was like married, don to I don't have to be defensive about that. I'm married. So like you listen to what I say. Okay, one of the questions was funny, they were like Do you wait to text back or not And I think I actually had kind of a good answer I feel like waiting a text back. Yeah, do it a little bit, but it becomes too exhausting to be like didid I hit the hour mark I think you text back immediately with typos So he's like She She's busy, but also like she clearly doesn't give a fuck. She responded immediately and spelled everything wrong. L she never she didn't send this to all her friends. and I think there's something confident about that. And you get the conversation going. That's a great answer. I hate when you're in these like four hour text things with guys where I'm like, I don't even know anything about them because we've only We're playing this like game I'm like, we're all on our phones Everyone. All the time. Everyone. But I said I wouldn't double text I mean I've definitely done it I've done it like if it's like We're texting during the day and then like I'm out. But I'm not like continuing a conversation. No, like I'm not asking the next question. L like like if a natural question is to follow, like then I'll say it. but if the conversation has come to a halt, I'm not reigniting it with a question. Or like if I said something really d, like if I just said okay to something thenen you can continue it as just like being nice. Also, if he's your soulmate, you could literally send him a paragraph about how you want to have his babies and he'll be like, cool, same Yeah, you can never act too crazy for the right guy ever Me and Hannah are very much in the true belief of traumatize them early. See what that handle. Yeah how strong they are. Yes And then you can weed it out really quickly. Speaking of Woman of S of the Wek Wait, before we get to women of some of the sor just got ahead of myself. I've had so many girls messaging me cosmetologists who have learned the art of the grreay hair, honey And a lot of them said It's a mh It's not that if you pluck one out, five will grow in its place. It's that the belief that is that you are damaging damaging the follicle, okay. And that that causes it to grow back a little weird? No, I forgot what they look. that you've just lost melanin that like it's growing Like it's not gonna grow five more back, but like that follicle It's going to grow gray because you've lost melanin But it was already gray. Yeah. My girls were like pluck away. Okay, so it's funny. whenever we say we're confused about anything, we get tons of messages from gigglers. and I was telling Des, I'm like, oh my God, we get so many messages from like doctors. He's like, who's messaging you? I'm like, peopleeople are like, Hey, I'm a surgeon at NYU Langon. I was just listening to Gigglers squad. I did get one message that threw me This girl said that she's our women's side of the week She is a twin And she said They did their own study on the ground Bots on the ground journalis and so that she her grays and her twin didn't And she has more grace So that threw me through me threw me up, but I'm still plucking. What you becauseuse what are you doing if you're not plucking Well, a lot of girls were giving like different root sprays. Yeah they userays or I just want to go full gray with thick tortoisell glasses and a cape and just like walk around like talk a shit about it. Okay, but not like our thirties No, I'm more like Like're sing lady diries But our woman of some of the Weak runner up Ishakira Do you what Chicira did? Yes. Wait, do you wan to tell them? So a couple of years ago, I don't know if you guys remember, but Sicira was accused of tax fraud in Spain and she literally proved the court wrong and was like, give me back my ten million dollars, I think. Is they seized or something or froze. I actually didn't know about this part And so she like proved that she didn't commit tax fraud. And they were like, okay, yeah, you're right, We're wrong Not to be controversial, but sounds like an inside job. Sound something something fishy was going on Can girls commit tax fraud? No I don't think we should pay full we should pay seventy percent tax. If women were in charge of politics, that would be the first would there be no pink tax? Like why are we getting taxed the most when we make the least? It kind of is crazy that feminine products are taxed. No woman would have thought that some old man, but I'll add that to why she's woman to some of the weeek, but my reasoning was So her ex who cheated on her is like us Soccer player. or football and She's the face of So iconic. I love this. So iconic. So whatever your ex is doing And the way to be the face of it, it's not that hard. just like put your mind to it for a couple of years.. It honestly, it's not that hard. I imagine everywhere he goes is just her face and her songs. And Pe are going to the game just to see her Hell yeah So respect to that because you know that her team was probably like You could do this, you don't have to You're ready an icon. you don't need to work this summer. And she's like, yeah, I do Yeah I Yeah I do C clear my plans. I definitely do. U And the documentary I recommend everyone watch is the Kylie Minob documentary. What's that on It's on Netflix. It's three episodes I don't think they they talked about how good her style was And one thing I'm very jealous of Kylie Minogue for, she's First of all, I think it's Mano I'm going to have to say M no to that Iate No I hate myself. I think it's Mogue. Okay. It's not Minogue you Either. No, I knew that. and it' not Montague No, that's a whole different different word. Yeah yeah It is just a different word. But you can say M no to bring it back to the beginning
