Sup, Gigglers?
Gary, fix your Wi-Fi. Manifest that shit. We can't be managed.
I mean, the day just got away from me.
What's up, my Gretchen Wiener gigglers?
That's a really good one.
Thank you.
I just looked down. What the fuck is going on with your nails? You subconsciously hid them.
Okay, you know I'm going through a rough time.
Are you?
No, okay, look, you know when you're up late? And it's like 1 a.m. and you're like, I'm gonna stay up.
This is pick.
I'm gonna stay up till like 1:30.
Yeah.
And then you're like, what's until 2? And the next thing you know, it's 5 a.m.
Why don't I just get an early start on the morning?
Yeah, you're like, shan't you some emails?
No, I do that all the time. And then I fall asleep at like 6 a.m. till 10 a.m.
Late is late, okay? That's what happened with my nails. They started to grow out. And then I was like, well, they're grown out. And then I was like, okay, they're still grown. Look, my nails, can we get a close up if you guys are watching on YouTube?
Yeah, cuz it's just, I was like, at first I go, she got tips? And then I was like, oh, she made her own. And then, she's a homemaker.
Now, DIY. Now I'm embarrassed for my nail girl to see it.
Jaclyn's gonna be like.
Jaclyn, no, but you know what? Jaclyn doesn't judge me.
No, she doesn't.
Jaclyn loves me for me. And that's why I love Jaclyn. And Jaclyn doesn't like talking to me, which is why I love Jaclyn.
No, me and Jaclyn watch shows.
Yeah, Jaclyn's like, you watch a show without me? She's like, we're on episode four, babe.
Jaclyn will giggle while the show is on.
So true.
Wait, we haven't seen each other in person for like two weeks, so we're like, wild energy.
Let me just get into it right now.
Get into the shows.
I always wanna say Real Housewives, but no, what is it? Secret Lives of Mormon Wives.
Not so secret, by the way.
It is, first of all, Hulu is just fucking crushing it, like.
Shout out Hulu.
No, truly shout out Hulu, because I feel like anytime I'm like, I just need like a good TV show, and I'm like a sitcom-y girl. Hulu is really giving me what I need.
You want episodic.
I want episodes.
Layers and layers and seasons and series.
I am gonna compliment Hulu on that. I'm watching like a random detective show. Episodes, episodes, episodes.
Storylines, yes.
Sorry Netflix, I don't want only-
Jump the shark, get me back.
I don't want four episodes Netflix, that's actually not a season.
Wait, period, it is so emotionally volatile to give me a four-episode series and then never hear from that character again. Where are they? Are they okay? Has anyone checked on them?
Sorry, I'm waiting on a show from Apple since 2021.
And when you have to wait for a show for so long that you have to re-watch the season to know what characters' names are?
I actually don't get that mad at that because I'm like, oh.
Silly me.
Yeah, like a new eight-episode like Nighter.
Do you know why my husband is a man?
Hmm.
He listens to podcasts of his favorite shows and I think that's like another level of nerd.
Oh, like the, like-
The after-
If you want more-
He's that person.
Wow.
You know, you're like, who the fuck is doing that?
I've always wondered that.
And you know what? I feel like maybe me and you would if we had jobs that we had to like go somewhere to, you know, like if we had to walk to work, if we had to go some-
I just lost all my senses. What? You said job and I was like, not me, not now.
When I had a nine to five-
And I would walk to work, I was on my like, my podcast game.
You were on your podcast game, yeah.
Yeah, yeah. Um, not to speak about my husband, which on my last YouTube episode, you-
Our last YouTube episode.
On my part of the episode, my scene.
No, you literally-
We need to start doing more confessionals next year, next year.
You, yeah, we had to do confessionals, but you started like saying that I love my husband, which was like fucked up and I wouldn't do that to you. I would never do that to you, even if you fucking told me you loved your husband, I wouldn't say that.
You wanna know what? I got so many text messages being like, wait, it's so sweet how much Hannah loves Dez.
I have a Dez story and I never tell Dez stories.
And I text it back and I go, ew, gross.
You know who's Dez?
I was like, who's Dez?
So Dez, I keep him protected, I keep him sidelined.
Hold on, before you start this, because this is actually about Dez.
Before you start a forty-minute story?
I had to write a list of like inviteees for something and someone said, what about Hannah's husband?
Wait, do you know my bio? At the end it says Hannah Berner lives in New York with her cat Butter and my mom was like, you have a husband?
And I go, oh yeah, he probably won't come, but I guess we could throw him an invite.
We, now I'm nervous that I'm invited to something. Now I'm scared.
It's like nothing.
So Dez shot another special. At the Comedy Cellar. Now Dez and I have a rule. I'm not allowed to come to special tapings. Cause I bring. I'm a chaos goblin. Chaos goblin is my new word.
I don't love it, but it might grow on me.
You know, some people are.
The word goblin, I just, it's so like frumpy for me, like.
You only want pretty words around.
You go that word, it's not pretty, not cute. Sorry, chaos angel?
An angelic chaos.
Gorgeous.
Person. So I, no, it just, he's basically like, I need to focus on the show and me coming, just he doesn't want. Also, he has a lot of jokes about me. And I said, you know what? I love that and I respect you. And that's why I'm, I don't care that your friends are going, whatever. I will not go.
I love you so much. You're not gonna see my face.
We're divorcing. So I laid back and my man, he got dressed up. I said, it was like he was going off to war.
There's nothing like laying in bed and your man having to go anywhere.
Oh my God.
You're like, oh, go.
I even like, I put some powder on him because he was gonna be on camera. And I said, I was his makeup artist and I said, you look great. Get out of here. So he calls me after the first show and you know, when you know someone well, that like their tone, you immediately know if something went well or not.
And by his tone of voice, I was like, oh, he crushed it.
So when you shoot a special, you shoot two shows typically and they get edited together. But if the first show doesn't go well, that's a lot of pressure. Cause in the second show, you need to fucking nail.
Does Dez ever take beta blockers?
No, but I feel like I should start putting it in his drink. Just to calm the vibes. Like if I know something stressful is coming up for him and like. Drug your husband.
I'm not a, I was just gonna say.
It's not addictive, you can drug them.
It's not weird.
I'll just put it with his Advil.
Yeah, it's fine.
Which he's overdosed on. Someone should check that. Um, Tylenol. So he calls me and then he has the phone and like, we're not fun. Like, we're not a fun couple.
Mm-hmm.
We're not like doing crazy things.
Right. You're not like showing up in a bob, blonde bob.
No, and we're not like. Oh, we were bored, so we took a trip. Like, we're not.
Or like, we didn't know what to do this week.
Thank God, cuz I'm not that either. Oh, we're bored, so we went here for the weekend? Shut the fuck up.
Do we plan full trips of what we would do if we wanted to go to Tokyo? Would we ever make it to Tokyo? Have we canceled flights to Tokyo? Yes.
We do that a lot.
We want.
We're career women. We want the fun of planning a trip.
Yes.
But we're not, we're never gonna be able to go.
Yes, I love that.
I took this month off. I've never worked more in my life. I was like, guys, don't contact me for May. I'm freezing my eggs. They were like, cool, you have to be on a plane, a train. I'm like, okay. I'm giving a speech tomorrow.
I have a baby. You're like, I'm on the presidential ballot and I didn't know how this happened. So I get off the phone and I think, would it be fucking crazy? If I put on clothes, Dyson Airwrap, like a quick Dyson, not like in depth. Yeah, not.
Yeah, full flush.
Full flushed. Um, put a little lip liner and got in a cab and like watched his show and then when he got off, I'm there to be like.
Hello.
Literally to be like Kylie Jenner with Timothy Chalamet at the Knicks game.
You're just supporting.
I wanna, sorry, I wanna support my man. Like, I can't always.
You're literally giving Kylie right now. Your tits are out.
Wait, I was gonna say, are they distracting you?
A little bit.
Cuz I'm wearing my Lululemon top and it's giving.
Yeah, like, people forget that you have really good boobs.
Cuz it's, it's the least interesting thing about me and I want people to see my.
You never show them off.
I want them to focus on my multiple personalities instead.
Like, I don't think I've ever seen you in a top where I'm like, oh my God, Hannah's giving me tits tonight.
I think it's cuz I talk so much and I'm saying so many things that you can't get distracted by anything else.
And you also love your ass more. How did we get here?
Why are you talking to me like a literal truck driver? Yeah, you love your ass. I'm more of a tits guy, but you love shaking that ass.
Sorry, I don't know why. I've been feral today. I think it's because I'm losing all my estrogen. I'm back.
You are relapsing.
No, I'm fully relapsing.
I hate to say.
My one week in my femininity, gone.
Can I just say that you were the happiest I've ever seen you be in the last two weeks? To the point that I was like, are we even compatible as friends right now? Because she's not criticizing anything, she's not grumpy.
I was so happy.
You're not complaining at all, and like, this is boring as fuck.
Anything bad that happened, I was like, and so is life.
No. You stopped and you were like, wait, New York is so beautiful in the spring.
She stopped, I complained about something and she goes, to be negative, what is that like?
And then today on a call, I was like, how about this? How about everyone's fired? And you can lose my fucking number.
See, I love you like this, I love when you're a little bit mad.
I have more gripes, so let's keep going.
Good. So I call my mom, as you do, I'm not just gonna do something without calling my mom on my own free will? No.
I literally am like, I have to run this by Lenore Berner. Like.
Wait, it's like a weeknight at like, what, like 10pm?
It was a school night.
I said, Lenore Berner, I called her by her government name. I said, do I surprise Dez? And her first response was, didn't he tell you verbatim, he does not want you to be there tonight? And I said, but does that mean he like, kinda does want me to be? Like, you know when you don't know if your partner's trying to be like, yeah, don't give me flowers? Like, is it like that?
And she's like, you know what, I support this. And I'm like, okay, if it goes bad, it's on you, Lenore Berner. So I get in the car, and his show starts at 10, the second show. And it's like 10:30, and also getting into the Comedy Cellar is hard.
Like, and obviously I'm a comic, but like, there's so many security guards. And I got lucky, I just was like, I'm Dez Bishop's wife, which I've never said before.
I was just gonna say, have you ever said that before?
But he was like, it's his night, so I was like, I don't have a name. I just have these beautiful boobs, and Dez Bishop's wife.
You were a missus that night.
It was like, for a second, it was fun just being helpless.
Yeah, like.
I don't have anything else.
You were like, sorry, I have a sourdough at home.
Yeah, I was like, I just need to find my man, I'm scared.
That was my vibe, and they said, go downstairs, I said, thank you. So I walked down the stairs and I'm standing there and he's not on stage yet, which like, I'm like, oh shit, did I time it wrong? Cause the opener was still on stage, didn't know where he was. And a manager comes up to me and they're like, you can't stand here ma'am. And I was like, Dez Bishop's wife?
Hey, Dez Bishop's wife.
Have you seen that video where it's like, I'm?
It's like a TikTok video and it's this guy sitting in his car and this woman comes over and he's like, you can't park there. I'm gonna go get Ted Anders. He's like, okay, I don't know.
That was.
You're like, I'm Dez Bishop's wife. Everyone's like, we don't care. This is the line for the bathroom. Fucking move.
So I'm standing there and the guy's like, literally was like, I don't care. And he like guides me in basically, you can't stand here ma'am. And I was like, don't call me ma'am. And then Mrs. So he kind of shows me in and I go, I'm Dez Bishop's wife. And he goes, okay, well Dez is right here. So Dez is sitting.
That's weird because this is Dez Bishop's wife.
Wait, did we just make this into a full second family exposing?
Wait, I just pictured some like redheaded woman that looks exactly like, but she has an Irish accent. Oh my God. Okay. The story isn't even that funny.
His secret family got to see his special and I didn't. Anyway, so Dez is sitting there and the one thing I was trying not to do is for him to see me. Cause I wanted him to see me at the end. So immediately he looks at me and he's like.
Immediately he spots me.
The first person I see is Dez Bishop. And he goes, what are you doing here? Like when I came in, I was like, Dez Bishop's wife. And he looks at me so disappointed. And he literally was like, you had one job. Which was not to come to the dating. And the manager's looking at me.
You're texting your mom. You're like, abort.
It was like, the one time I tried to be romantic and cute, like it backfired so bad. Cause he was like, now I'm worried if you're having, now I'm all worried. And then I was like, I could leave. Like this was stupid. And he's like, I have to walk on stage right now. And I'm like, let me make this about me really.
You literally went, ruined the whole night.
Made the most nerve wracking moment of his life ten times more nerve wracking.
I am a chaos goblin. And when I tell you guys though, my heart is in the right place.
Like my heart.
Mm hmm.
Is so fucking pure.
Meanwhile.
All I want is to make that man happy.
Have they ever made a man happy? No. Actually, do I ever want to make a man happy? No.
No.
And you know what? At the end of the day, I'm does his lesson. And that's what I am. So.
You're the north to his Kim. You know, what can we say?
What can we say?
What can we say? So he gets on stage and I'm sitting there and I realize like, if he does bad.
It's on you.
It's, I'm.
Fully.
It's fully on me. So I'm sitting there trying to enjoy it, but every second I'm like.
Really laugh?
I was laughing.
Now everybody.
I was like, let's go. He does, I start crying laughing, like that's not even the funny part.
The opposite of heckling. You're like yelling.
I started the wave in the crowd.
You're like, we love you, Dad.
No, I was doing the. I was throwing him. And it went amazing. And then we got off the stage and he's like, what's, why'd you do that?
And I was just like, I'm sorry, but you did amazing. So thank God he did amazing. And um, that's why you should stay home.
Right.
That's the moral of the story.
Another lesson on staying home.
Everything that's ever happened to me in my life that is bad has happened to me when I've left the house.
And then anything that's happened to me that's bad in the house is me remembering things that happened outside the house.
Or on my phone. And so like, I should start placing my phone outside my front door.
Wait, I don't know why, but the algorithm, it is like, remember Facebook, how they just recommend all your exes or like people you don't like? And you're like, yeah, I don't follow them for a reason.
That's how your algorithm is. Like I will mute so many things that I don't want to see. It finds me every time.
It's like, it's like a fungus.
That's how I feel about online shopping.
Oh, like they keep recommending the things you're like not sure about?
I didn't want it anymore.
Do you think you have a problem?
Or do you think you're an entrepreneur?
I'm an entrepreneur. I'm doing market research.
Do you feel a high when you do it?
When I shop online.
Yeah. Does it fill a void that you never thought you could fill?
Does it make you feel like?
Better?
Yeah. So, bring it to your local therapist because they're wrong. It actually does make you happier.
I find the buying is way more fun than actually like having to put it away in your closet.
You're distressed right now.
You're overwhelmed. You're inundated with.
I'm overstimulated, underprepared for life.
And that's your autobiography. That's spot on.
How are you?
I was just gonna say, let's start the pod. The preamble.
We love a preamble. A preamble story.
We're preamble friends, like when we first see each other.
We need a warm up. Well, we're like cats. We're like, we sniff each other a little. We roll around, we say.
I have to think of like the tea that I have.
Oh, my God. Well, you, yeah, you've, you're bad at like having tea ready for me. It needs to boil.
I need to like think.

Okay, this is what I wanted to say about Mormon Housewives. Because we never talked about it.
We like praised Hulu, we said fuck Netflix.
And then we talked about my husband.
Yeah, and then we pivoted.
It's so good.
It's such a good show because I feel like because they're so new to reality TV. So they literally just say every single thought they've ever had.
New to reality TV can go two ways. It depends on the group.
Well, the whole group hates each other now. They've already, they've already, it's already ruined everything. Like money has already gotten involved, like egos, who's bigger than who.
But sometimes new reality TV people, because of the vibes, no one discloses everything because they're all like protecting themselves. But this one was kind of like, let's outdo each other is what you feel. By the way, I've never watched a second of this.
Well, I think a lot of it has to do with being Mormon and being so like, they're so, they're so, um. Yeah, suppressed, but also like, what is the word?
Innocent?
Yeah, like innocent where they're not like, I don't know, Utah like as a state is just so.
Do they have air conditioning?
I mean, they definitely have air conditioning, but I'm so fascinated by it like truly not like hating or anything. I'm really so fascinated on how they like have it like their culture. They don't get influenced by anything else in America and it's like, but how do you not see it every day?
Cause it's a cult.
No, it's a full on cult. So I think part of like them getting attention is on like even a different scale because it's like.
I also, I haven't watched it, but I love the idea that these women who in their society.
Are considered less than.
Are now like independently becoming wealthy.
Well, they're, yes, they are. They're definitely, they out earn all of their husbands for a hundred percent. Some of their husbands stopped working, which I'm like, uh, put them back to work. Like, I don't know if they're all dating each other, but someone needs to look into that. But that's besides the point because I truly do love every single girl on the show and I'm like genuinely rooting for all of them.
Oh.
Because they have certain scenes like the ma- one main girl, Taylor. I've never wavered on liking her or not. I've always loved her because her family sucks. Her parents are some of the worst people I've ever listened to on reality TV. No, I'm not gonna.
I love the girls, the older people.
The way they spoke to this girl that her boyfriend who she just had a baby with cheated on her and lied pretty much the whole beginning of their relationship. They literally told her that she deserved it because she had sex with him after like three times of hanging out. And I'm like, uh, uh, uh, literally go to any co- go to anywhere in this, in this.
Anywhere.
Literally in the country.
Like, what are you talking? I just felt so bad for her in that moment.
And that's really honestly all my gripes.
Taylor, Paul, Frankie, Taylor, Frankie, Paul.
It doesn't, yeah.
Three first names.
She's just, she's just like an innocent, she doesn't know.
She literally doesn't know. So she's like living her life and she's cute and she wanted to like dance around and like have sex with her boyfriend like.
He wanted it too. Like it's, she forced it on him.
Like he. That's the whole thing, their whole like mindset on like what women are for and then the other one, there's another girl, her name is Jen. Her husband's got her in a whole fucking psychosis. Like, I mean, she literally left the show because she couldn't, he's just.
Well, what's interesting about what Hulu is able to do is like actually show the psychology of these relationships. I hate when reality TV like. There's real shit going on, but they try to oversimplify it with like a really basic storyline. But it sounds like they're really delving into these people's lives.
Into their lives.
Do you think this season's better than last season? Cause I was worried on the street.
I think, no, I don't. I think they're both like pretty equal. There's just a lot of drama. She's a little bit out of the drama because she had like just had a baby.
And she needs to get on the bench.
Have like a new villain.
And she's kind of like chilling, but like no wonder they all become swingers like. And here's the other thing they say though, they say that like they hooked up with someone, but they mean they like kissed. And so I'm like, oh, come on, guys.
Was it butt? Was it finger? Was it armpit? You gotta give me more details. Why they look at the camera?
And so like the fact that even them being swingers was like the death to their like families. They never even fucked each other's husbands. They've made out with them and like had sex with their own respective husband in the same bed. I'm like, big whoop.
That's called high school.
No, wait, that's called losing your virginity. Who cares?
That's called a Tuesday.
Unless you had sex with that woman's husband, I don't care.
You did not even have sexual relations with that woman.
Yeah, so it's just like, I feel it's bad for the women in general.
I wonder if them seeing the feedback of the public now. Is making them question their entire like perspective on life.
Yeah, because like what's the moment, this is like a macro thought. What's the moment that you go from like, oh, my mom is teaching me this and I'm trying to rebel to then I'm gonna teach my daughter the same thing? You know, like, what's that? I mean, I guess that's gener- breaking generational trauma.
Yeah, I also think, though, they're they've been since the day they were born fed, like, literally fed. Scripture, whatever they call it, the story, so like, you're brainwashed.
They're also some of the most judgmental women I've literally ever watched. About like religion, it's just, yeah. For reality.
Yes, but it is funny, there's a lot of cults where like, there's a reason why you're not allowed to use your phone, you're not allowed to talk to your parents, because those are all, as someone who's obsessed with cults, those are all outer world things that can change your mind about what you're being brain rash washed. Sorry, I just got brainwashed. So you need to get those distractions out of the way, so you don't question anything, and then you just become Mormon.
I mean, if there's, I'm never joining a religion that limits my drinks. And not even alcohol, like, I'm sorry. Diet Coke, fuck off.
But they can do Adderall.
Can they do betas?
Yeah, no, they can.
Pharmaceuticals.
So they can do like.
I'm sure they're doing drugs, too. There's definitely some Mormons.
My thing is, they just like get around whatever the old school rules are, you know? Can they do Ozempic?
I'm sure.
You can't do a morning coffee, but you can do.
They were also talking about this whole thing where like, if you die and you were divorced, like, you're still bound to your ex-husband for the rest of your.
Let's talk about the here and now. When he dies?
My desk, we'll figure it out, but like, right now.
How did the men who are dead have more power than women who are alive?
Period.
Oh. Oh, my god.
That is so, where'd you hear that? You just made that up?
Marilyn Monroe.
I'm just kidding.
My new thing is quoting everything and saying Marilyn Monroe.
I was doing it on the burner phone podcast, I said some quote and this was like, where's it from? And I go, Audrey Hepburn and Marilyn Monroe, one of the two, I don't know.
Oh, god. Oh, um, can I have a mental health moment?
Sure, because then I have another thing I'm pissed off about.
I had a really good day the other week, I don't want to brag, but you know when you wake up and like, you've no intrusive thoughts?
Yep.
The world feels a little lighter.
It's a slow morning.
It's a slow morning, you know what happiness is? It's not when something good happens to you, honestly, that is normally followed by a lot of stress.
It's more when like, things are quiet.
Yeah, no one's.
No one's bothering you, no one's looking for you, you, you're more like, in the moment, you're like, oh, should we have a bagel? Like, that's, that's.
I love that.
That is what happiness is and you don't realize it until too late.
I like candles. I'm like, and this moment is just even better.
I feel like our whole life, we're trying to be successful and then you become successful and then you're like, how are you supposed to enjoy the little things?
No, sometimes I'm like, will I ever feel happiness?
I love you so much, it's so relatable.
Will I?
Literally today, I was like.
Also, don't you sometimes get nervous that like, we've done so much stuff so quickly? That it's like.
We should retire.
Will we ever have this, will I ever have the same dopamine hit? While playing charades with Patrick Schwarzenegger, Jon Hamm, Jimmy Fallon and my best friend? I don't think so.
You've never moved on from the one time I told you about Justin Bieber and how he burnt all his dopamine because he had too many big shows? You've never forgotten it.
And look at him now.
And for good reason, I never forgot it because, look at him now.
If you're going through a hard time, just know that at least you're not burning out all your dopamine and there's good things to come. But the truth is, yeah, happiness is you being able to exist.
People have kids.
Why?
Well, as someone who gave birth last week. I get that you.
To eat eggs.
I get that you get a.
A fulfillment that's different than any like.
I get where you get to a point where you're like, my life is fun, but like I need something else. Like I need like another, like I'm kind of, I like I've done what I wanted to do almost kind of thing where like it's not at the forefront, like I
It's also because your brain is so used to chasing or like you want to be proud of yourself when I actually do something that I'm proud of. Your brain still doesn't know that you should chill out. So then it's like, okay, what, what else we're doing?
Bad for each other because we're both so like, okay, but we did that. Well, what's the next thing?
What's the next thing? But
We both are very supportive.
That's so true.
And I say, I'm proud of you, even though I know you worked way too hard on it. You didn't have to do that kind of thing. You know what I mean?
What was your mental health?
Oh, my mental health. I had a really good day and I don't know why.
And it was just being, you were present.
I was present. That was it. I was present. I was talking to my husband.
I asked my husband a question. I asked him a question. I listened to his response. I said something back. I was just in the moment. I wasn't lost in my thoughts and I said, what a beautiful day.
And like, what'd you do that day?
I think I like, I played some tennis and then I just like relaxed. I like wanted to socialize a little bit. Like I think like someone came over.
You were really having a good day.
Yeah, we watched the Knicks game and I wasn't like on edge.
And I'm like, I'm healed from whatever illness I have. Go to bed that night. Get assaulted by my dreams.
See, can't we just have a day?
I said, the first
Mini.
My subconscious was like, oh, you shut me up all day? Bitch, I'm coming. I literally had a right. I woke up and I was like, okay, I had a dream that my, I was shooting my next comedy special. And I changed my outfit after the first show and they were like, you can't change your outfit. It has to be the same outfit for the two shows. And I was like, well, I don't have my other outfit and everything was ruined.
Hold on. You had a fashion.
It was actually more of a s- s- cuz I think I went to does a special taping. It was more of a special taping.
This special taping really ruined your whole week.
Shook me. Oh, yeah. And then they changed my makeup and they're like, you can't change the makeup. And I was like, week, like, we're fucking up this whole day. Um, and then I had to go to a tennis tournament. We're triggered. Everyone's, this is a dark shit.
Oh, my god.
And I was supposed to play and they were like, you were supposed to check in on your phone. And I was like, I didn't know where the check in was. Like how I forgot to click on.
I'm surprised you didn't have sleep, sleep paralysis.
I think I did. They were, they were like, you got an email. And I was like, I never saw the email. I wake up and I was like, oh, this is what I get?
For shutting my mind out for one day? So like, what am I supposed to do?
You know, that's interesting because I fell asleep the other day for like fifteen minutes nap, like in the middle of the day. It was like four P M. I had like a, I had like a five o'clock call. I was like, I'm literally shutting my eyes.
I woke up in a tizzy as if it was that previous morning and I never got up and did the whole day. But I was like, oh, my god.
Have you ever lived?
I literally texted my mom. I was like, I work so much that I woke up in the nap and I was like, I thought that I missed all day. She was like, okay.
Had a dream of everything you have to do the next day and you do it and then you wake up and realize you haven't done any of it yet?
Yeah. I used to have those in high school all the time.
I used to have that with tennis where I'd play, I'd know I have to play a girl and I was really nervous about that specific girl. Play the entire match against her in my sleep. Wake up and go, Jesus fucking Christ. Anyway, so any sleep, um.
Wait, I would say that if I was on a team and like during practice.
What would you say?
I actually had a dream about this last night and I did it in the dreams. I don't have to do it today.
Wait, so what are the rules about dream winning?
So then we were working on our mental health.
Um, okay, my gripe.
Yeah. Gripe me, bitch.
The amount of horror movies available to watch on streaming, it's enough.
Who's watching them back to back?
It's too much. For every drama, I don't need seven horror movies being made.
I feel like horror movies are like really easy to make.
Well, they say that they're really cheap and that they don't get like accolades.
Yeah, cuz they just find a haunted house that no one wants to film in.
Yeah, during like um award season, like horror films are like never whatever. And I'm like, yeah, cuz they suck.
I hate horror movies. I don't, I just don't like.
We already have adrenaline.
That's what it is.
I also, the beginning of a horror movie is the nicest, sweetest shit you'll ever see. Like the fir- you know, the first conversation, it's always like the best day ever. And they're like, I love you, mom. I hope nothing bad ever happens to us. And you're like, oh, my god, just get to it. Get to the like.
Truly, the last horror movie I saw was like Saw, and it was like in high school.
I saw Final Destination three and I, that was my final destination.
How come in high school, like every time you would hang out with a guy, it would be a horror movie?
No, why does that make guys horny?
I don't know. We should look into that.
We should look into that. Is it cuz they wanna be tough? They're like, yeah, I'll protect you if you get nervous and they try to kiss you.
Does violence turn them on?
And, and should that person?
Kidnapping.
N- n- yeah.
Murder.
Can a- women yelling?
Out of fear?
I think we should look into that.
Chris, did you ever take a girl on a date to a horror movie? Why? Who told you that? Joe Rogan?
Yeah, I think it's like, oh, if she's gonna get scared, you're gonna like grab her hand.
A guy took me on a date to see the movie The Happening. It was supposed to be like a scary movie where everyone dies.
Amy Poehler and Paul Rudd just talked about this when Paul was on Amy's podcast about movie theaters. When's the last time you went to the movie theater?
I wanna see sinners at the movie theater, but again, I'm, we're not a couple that does stuff. I know, it's not a horror movie. Oh.
What a movie to bring up at a time like this.
You're saying people who go see horror movies?
At any type of horror movie, if you're leaving the home to see it, diabolical. In the home, like, cause that's your genre.
I'm also traumatized when I was at tennis academy when I was fourteen. I was like, it was me and this one other girl and all these boys. And our night out was going in the mall in Florida, cause it's all they have to do in Florida. And they'd make us see a horror movie. And the guys would yell at the wrong times to scare me. And that's why I have um, high functioning anxiety.
I don't like being scared.
Like, I like a prank. I love a prank. I think. If you're hiding and then you're gonna scare me, you're stupid.
No, it's low brow.
I close my eyes. I don't care. I close my eyes. I I close my ears. I don't care that I'm thirty three. I'm doing that. I'm closing my eyes and closing my ears and I'm going la la la la la la.
I'm like, I'm hit, I'm. I'm throwing bows.
If it comes down to it.
Are you one of those people when something scary happens, you go, ah?
Yeah, a hundred percent.
No, I'm close. Also, if there's any violence, I close my eyes.
That's how I feel. Like, I can't watch some like mafia movies. Like, when they get beat up, I'm just like, oh god.
No, I know. I'm like, you already hit him three times. Why do you have to hit him again? Why, why, it, no.
Yeah, like I clo- had to close my eyes, I feel like, through a lot of The Sopranos.
I was just like, I can't. Um, wait, let's talk about my egg freezing for a quick second, because I feel like people don't talk about this part of it.
You gain weight when you're doing it, obviously, because your ovaries, like, literally, like.
Swell.
Get bigger. So I gained like seven pounds of just like bloat and water.
Those ovaries are fat.
I mean, I may have been snacking.
For the baby.
I'm pumping up my ovaries, you wouldn't get it.
I love saying I'm eating for two.
But like, I knew. Like that weight is like go- going to go away like and then like certain like two weeks like my body literally like the hormones have to like dissipate and all that stuff. So like I wasn't like that stressed about it that I had like gained seven pounds, but I definitely was like, oh shit, like I gained seven pounds.
Did he tell you, did the doctor tell you to weigh yourself?
Yeah, they tell you. No, no, no, but they tell you.
Cause you don't, you don't have to weigh yourself.
I don't think anyone advises that.
I would have been.
But I wanted to know.
Like how much.
You're fluctuating.
Yeah, it was gonna like make me gain. So I, after, I just have this thought where I was like, okay, I know it's the weight's going away and I know like I don't really have to do that much because it's just like water weight. After you have a baby.
As someone speaking with experience.
No, here's the thing. In that moment that I was like, but I felt gross. I was like, okay, I can't like put makeup on. Like I just feel disgusting. This is not my body. Like I just, you do feel like a little odd because like then your hormones are going crazy. Once you give birth and you are in the state that you are in, like this baby's just come out of you, your stomach's still huge because it doesn't go away overnight.
You're a vehicle for a living thing.
Your vagina's destroyed. Like you're six weeks till anything even can see down there.
But it sucks back in. It sucks.
Totally. Right.
That's what the sound it makes.
I can imagine that in that moment, you know if you married the right person or not.
Because I had a moment where I was like coming off of it. My hormones were crazy. I didn't, I felt disgusting. I just like, everything was annoying me. So I'm so interested, like after you have a baby, how many women, now obviously it's not like overnight, like, oh, I married this person. I love him. Then when I had a baby, I hated him.
But I wonder how many people had the thought before they got married of like, I don't know if this is the right guy. And then right when they had a baby, it was like, this is definitely not the right guy.
It's literally post baby clarity.
Yeah, like do you get post baby clarity?
You're at like your most vulnerable form of like I, my body just went through trauma.
I need someone to love me for me because I don't look the way I know myself to look.
Take care of me and no, well, that's why I think when people say, oh, we were struggling, so we want to have a baby to bond us closer. It apparently like makes it worse, but if your relationship's strong, it makes it stronger, but babies will expose the fuck out of it.
No, like I want my husband to know exactly what one got me pregnant.
I want it to be loving. I want it to be like.
Not to bring up.
Your husband.
My husband again, but I got fired this weekend.
From your marriage?
He fired me because, oh, he has this thing where like, you ever like.
Well, wait, before we get into it, you two are both type B.
Very type B. Thank you for setting that up. Let me set the stage. I was watching TV in my zone, in my nook. You know, when you have a part of the couch. Don't bother me. He.
You lay on a weird axis.
Yes, yeah, I'm, but I'm like laid out, like it's a bed.
Yeah, of course.
It's a long part of the couch.
Well, if you get a couch and you're not treating it like a second bed, like people that just sit on their couch.
No, people who sit up, people who watch TV leaning forward.
No, like sometimes I'll see Instagram stories and I'm like, how are you working with that couch?
The fancy ass couches and you know, yeah, you're not like, you're not napping accidentally. I want to fall asleep the second I hit that couch. So does I sense movement from him, which is irritating.
Never good.
I said something.
He's had a thought.
Something's happening. So he, we've, we've been trying to add this like end of this couch for a while, fix the end of the couch. We've had weeks to do this. Suddenly he's excited and feels energy to do it. And that's great for him. I didn't consent to it. I wasn't mentally prepared. But he's trying to be like strong and do it on his own, but like he's grunting and he's like figuring it out. So then I'm like, okay, well, he's very mad at me about the special. So maybe I should.
Should I lend a hand?
So then I do the nice, you need help. And he goes, actually, and I was like, oh, no.
Walked right into that one.
And he's already like knows the ins and outs of this and I dive in and like, I'm not doing that great of a job. And honestly, I had a little attitude. I was like.
And also you didn't care.
Also, I didn't want to be there. Also, I never got hired officially.
You're like, also, I want to go home and this is our home.
So he was like, no, you gotta change how you do. And I go, I don't, and I like, I was like being mature and I walked off. I had to walk off.
So chic.
And then I come back and I go, cause I, we do this weird thing in our relationship, which I say sorry sometimes, which I don't recommend.
Oh my god.
But I, so I said, babe, I'm sorry. I don't know who that just was.
I'm back with you.
Let's do this couch.
It's us versus the couch.
It's us versus the couch. This couch doesn't know what's gonna hit it. Babe, it's me and you versus the world.
This couch has never met the bishops.
The bishop burners. So I, um, two minutes in, I'm, I'm in a, I'm mad again.
Like I retract that statement. This couch is fucked.
I had that moment where, you know, it's bad when you have to check your flow app. And I go, when am I getting my period? Cause I was starting to feel a little.
And when are you gonna?
It was four days away. And I go, actually, I take back my, I take back my thought. She, I come back in the room and I say, actually, I am P messing. It wasn't me either.
Actually, one more thing about the couch. Um, so here's what's happening.
And that's why.
What was wrong with the couch? How does a couch break?
It didn't break, but it was one of those couches that you could like connect and expand it. And we had like kind of put, it was.
Yeah, yeah, yeah. You have to like click the thing.
And like honestly, not my thing. Not where I thrive.
Also like, oh, I must've forgot when I went to engineering school.
I am a creative. I am clay with Legos. I was drawing. I was doing murals. I was sculpting.
So anyway, um, I survived to tell the tale, but it was funny.
Okay, question. Cause um, cause it's interesting that you both are type B, but you don't get like annoyed with each other because it's like.
I think that's the key. If one of us was type A.
We'd have, but we'd also, I think it would work if I was with a type A guy, as long as he didn't get annoyed. Like he liked cleaning.
Which our moms do.
Yeah, but for us.
For us. But like, I've had guys where like, they're like, oh, this is just how I, I'm my busy time and I like to clean.
And like, you're a yapper, like in general, but then you have quiet time. Is Dez a yapper?
We'll be quiet together.
Yapping and him being.
No, I'm quiet. He's quiet.
She goes, you don't speak.
No, we, we're very.
We've been trying this new thing where we're living apart.
I go, babe.
And we're not talking.
And it's working great.
No, our thing is we're so.
I'm like, don't have a baby. You will at your.
No, but we're very like, some, some days are less talkative. And that's marriage.
And, and I'm thankful.
Like today, I used to, early on, I'd be like, are we?
Can I tell you something you told me about marriage, me over here not married? You told me something about marriage and I think about it all the time. And every time I meet someone or I'm hanging out with someone, I think about like, it's not the fun stuff. It's not the cool stuff. It's not the vacations. It's not the like, what are we doing this weekend? Where are we going to dinner? It's literally waking up in the morning, both being home that day and how does it?
How do you navigate?
The day to day boring shit.
Cohesive together? Do you think the same things are funny? Are you gonna take a break and like make out and like be cute or like? And so I think about it all the time.
Well, especially when all you see is social media being like, that couple's fun. When it's like, yeah, but day to day.
The reason people break up is not because like of normally a big thing. It's normally just like the day to day isn't working. It's the idea of when you leave that person, do you feel energized? Or do you feel like your life is sucked away? And does and I.
Do you need a break?
All we do is laugh, but like we have to be on so much. So it's a lot of like, we get back. We, it's literally like me and you. He like, he's gonna come home from a podcast too. He's gonna see me, he's gonna be like, what are we ordering? What are we watching? What more do we need to talk about?
No, I dream.
But then, when the gossip comes.
The hard part about marriage is, look, I ran out of material. I ran out of stories.
And he will call me out. He'll be like, you told me this three times. And I go, I said, let me have a moment.
Let me, let me live in this performance. I've added some new adjectives and I've spiced it up.
I'm nervous that I'm gonna get married and we're gonna run out of gossip. Cause we were gonna.
You don't.
Okay, good.
Because you have friends doing stupid shit around you.
Okay, thank God.
Yes. But we were talking, does and I about how we don't have like married friends. We've lost, like I've lost single friends. He's lost friends with like full families. So it's kind of like us on our own.
You don't have like a couple that you're like, let's call the.
We should, we should and we we talk about it a lot. Like we're like, let's double date, let's double date.
This is fascinating because it's a very particular couple.
Now I did have to say.
Going to dinner with you guys.
We talked about it on burner phone. Don't you feel like if you're um, the girls have to decide? Like two men can't be like, let's bring our girlfriends. Like, I don't trust that.
No, that's like sex trafficking. Like, I'm actually terrified of that.
Men will be friends with anything.
No, if a man texted me and said, we're going to dinner, like me and Jim fucking set it up, I'd be like. They're done in the bathroom because it's not sounding safe.
Men will also bond over anything. Like they'll be like, they'll throw something in the garbage and then he'll throw something in the garbage. And be like, you like throwing stuff in the garbage? And they're like, do you want to be my best friend for eight years? Where girls, it's not like that. So the girls have to connect.
Sometimes though, girls can meet like their long lost best friend through like being someone's girlfriend.
And look, if you know Blind Squirrel finds a nut.
Right. And that's, and I'm happy for, they're the exception, not the rule. Like usually it's like, okay.
Yes, yes. But the double date, the fun part. Is the gossip after you leave and then you judge and you go, they they hate each other.
Actually see your, like your core couple that you guys go to dinner with is a lesbian couple.
That's so funny you say that because that's absolutely what we do. Lesbians love Dez. Lesbians are weirdly attracted to Dez because he has blue eyes. You know, blue eyed guys are like kind of pretty. Yeah, they they love Dez. And then, because he's giving um, he's giving straight Anderson Cooper. And then they love me and I love them. We love, we love the Taylors. We, yeah, we love lesbians.
We love lesbians. I don't know enough, honestly. I don't actually have enough lesbians in my life.
Well, look, you have enough, you have all the gay men and I have the lesbian women.
And you know what? Together, they hate each other.
I do love that rivalry. Like what is it that the gays and lesbians are like?
Well, I think because lesbians want nothing to do with men. We love speaking in huge generic stereotypes.
Never experienced, like marriage, babies, giving birth, having a husband, being gay. I love it.

I wanted to call you out on something.
Okay.
In the last newsletter, which is real, it's not a bit.
You put down jelly flats.
What of it?
Is that for reals?
Yeah, for real.
Like for realsies?
Listen, Miss Croc. I really...
I'm allowed to do crocs, that's on-brand, that's my thing.
Jelly sandals?
Here's the thing, Hannah, I love a trend. Like, I'm gonna try it. And if a major designer makes a jelly sandal, I'm finding the frickin' dupe and I'm buying it.
Who did it?
I forgot.
Say it with your chest next time.
Literally, I forgot.
I believed you though.
Someone did.
Wait, so it's a trend.
Chloe, maybe?
Okay, it's a trend.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, it's giving ballet flat and it's giving.
It's giving ballet flat. It's also like, it's not a.
It's giving you a step in one puddle? You're fucked.
It's not a trend that's staying. It's not a timeless, classic trend.
What color are you doing?
That's why I like, I don't think that those are designer brand purchases. Those are Amazon purchases. Like a ballet flat is also a trend, but that's actually a timeless shoe. So like if you're spending on a ballet flat, I would say that more than the jelly flat.
Jelly flat is fun to say.
A hundred percent.
And it also is a good conversation starter. Also, it is giving limited to and nostalgia.
We, do you remember those sandals that were like marshmallow? Do you remember the ones that were like literally a cloud?
Sandals that were marshmallow?
They were like this thick.
And like candies made them?
Yes, and then they would rip and then you'd have to put a Band-Aid over it.
Now you've lost me. Was it a flip-flop?
But around your toe, like the thong where your toe went, it was like terry cloth?
Maybe.
They were like massive platforms.
Yes, but like fluffy, like a, I don't know.
I need to Google a picture now. I think I know what you mean, but also I don't know if I know what you mean.
I didn't find it, but like it looked like this. Do you remember those?
Okay, yeah, but like from like not that long ago.
Like from when I was in like seventh grade.
Oh, no, I don't remember them none, none.
I also think that like Gen Z's, I have to commend them, but I'm also kind of angry at them that like they've made pimples cool.
Like they put this, it's almost like if you don't have a star on your face, you're like a loser.
Well, there's so much more like skin.
Focus. Like we didn't have, we weren't like doing things that were good for us.
Do you know what we were doing?
I just started using an eye cream. Like what?
We did proactive.
Yeah, I actually, I actually did.
I did proactive and I, then you'd put like, you'd cover your pimples up with like the, I had.
The seven step routine or whatever.
And their commercials were so long and it was like the first time it was like you saw a dermatologist. You were like, what is a dermatologist?
No, I had, and it was.
And it was two women? It was fucking two dermatologists.
So yeah, we had to use proactive back in the day. And there was definitely one that I was like, that's ciphering off my skin.
It was also like if you had acne back then, it was like, go home.
You're a teenager, you're supposed to.
Out of the house.
The reason why I'm not good with skincare right now is because I don't care how good something is. If it smells funny, I don't want to wear it.
You also have like a sensory thing.
Are you saying I have problems?
No, I'm saying that like, you don't like, like you're not put, you don't like a lot of makeup on. So like I get, so like skincare is sticky and it's oily and it's greasy and your hair sticks. And that is like,
And you love that.
That's my dream. I'm like, I want to go to bed looking.
I'm getting claustrophobic.
You know?
Yeah, this thing, if it smells nice, I like it, but this one dermatologist was like, this, you know, it's gonna change your name. Yeah.
And I bought it.
Too expensive. I got upset.
Biologique?
Bless you.
I go, did you just say a slur at me?
Like you can't call French people that.
It was this, I forget what it was, but she was like, this is what you need. It'll solve literally all your problems. A to Z. And I said, great, I'm committed. And she's like, promise you're committed.
First time I put it on, I said, I don't like this smell.
See.
Can't put it on.
I love that because I'm like, it's working.
There's something.
If it's burning, I'm like, it's just working really good.
Oh, it's overperforming.
You're like, actually, if it burns, it's not good.
I don't like those lip things that tingle. It, I can't focus on conversation when my lips are tingling.
Yeah, see, I love that.
And then I think everyone's looking at my lips tingle.
And it's distracting everything. How do you function when your lips are tingling?
I just love it.
You love it?
I love anything beauty related. I'm very vain.
Anything that I feel like is gonna make me look better. I'm like, I don't care if it hurts, smells, or kills. Kills me, I'm trying it.
You know, I don't talk to the internet and I don't get involved in gossip. However. There was a post.
We're only talking, you're only speaking on our podcast that we've had for the last five years.
There was a post that came up on my feed because I know I I care about you. But it was like saying what work you might have had done.
Paige. I was this close to commenting. She, they didn't like confirm anything, but they were like.
They were trying to Matt Riley.
Wait, what did they say?
It was a photo of you from like a while ago. And a photo of you now and like your eyebrows are like slightly different and you're you're like we're in a little, but it's funny, two photos of me next to each other. I feel like.
I did see this and I know that photo haunts me. Literally it was like I went to Sirius XM like one day, my first summer of Summer House.
By the way, sometimes you do press, you don't know there's a, you don't know there's a Getty photographer there.
I was also like, where do you do find this picture on the internet? That's a crazy picture. I was also twenty five and I was smiling, my lips, it did look like my lips were thinner. And in the picture next to it, I was like, that's a photoshopped like picture from somewhere.
Also, you had like full glam, but um, it is fun. There was a moment, I almost, I almost got in the comments. I never do that. Well, because someone was like, you know, giggle sweat, they stopped talking about getting work done. They probably started to get work done. You guys know this.
That bitch, who was that?
I don't know, I don't know. But I do have to say for ever vain you are. You haven't gotten a facelift yet. And you know, Kris Jenner's been looking good.
No, that, what is that facelift? I'm getting that.
Tell that lady in the comments to wait ten years.
Put, to put my face in a photo of me from the morning and the night, it looks like I got.
I'm gonna tell you something, the only, I'm not not getting plastic surgery because I'm like, I I want to be better than people and like, I'm, this is like the stance I'm taking. Not at all. I would love to inject myself with some shit. My thing is I'm too scared about doing the research of who I should go to. Because I genuinely don't trust anyone. I've gone to some of the best dermatologists ever. I've gone to some of the best doctors and guess what? They've all like fucked up certain things because they're all humans. And it's just one thing I'm not ready to gamble on yet.
Do you know who you can trust? God.
And God made you perfectly.
Imagine it.
God makes no mistakes.
Turned into like a religious podcast.
A faith-based podcast, and that is why.
Like, one day we were just like, actually?
And that is how, um.
The cookie crumbles.
In 1113. Mesediah said, "Go across the water and get the fish."
And, and when you question, "How do I get that fish?", you get that fish. Because that's what Mesediah did.
Why we turned southern, though? We could have been religious without being southern.
I don't think it goes that way. I don't think, I think you go full Joel Osteen.
We.
If you're quoting scripture, you better have a twang.
Can I say something controversial?
What?
You know I never want to out a man. Joel Osteen's gay.
Oh, well, I don't think you needed to out him.
Is he out?
I think anyone with general common sense and two eyeballs.
Unless you're doing stand-up, which still could be gay. If you're a man that wants to get on stage and perform to that extent, Joel Osteen?
Comedy is the only time it's excluded.
The only time.
Because I'm also laughing.
If you're a man getting up anywhere on a platform.
You may not even have a microphone in your hand. And you're speaking to the people about anything?
Shut the fuck up.
And you, like, I understand presidents are men, which, you know, that's an issue. But the last time, a woman wrote the speech. You know, they're just reading a speech a woman wrote.
What are people here for?
What are you guys all here for?
That's why we love Chris. Chris is sitting, listening to us.
Zip.
His only job is to sit there and listen to us.
And he laughs.
And he laughs, and he learns, and he grows.
And he learns, and most importantly, and he learns.
And as Marilyn Monroe would say. Live, learn, grow.
Oh, and one final thing. By the way, I did a photo shoot with Glamour, à la Peja Sorbo.
You looked gorge.
Where was that?
It was like in a hotel. And um, I ended up in the bathroom as I do. We were like trying and I was like, guys, we're going to the bathroom. But they're funny. They're like, let's not do the toilet stuff. And I was like, okay, I respect that. I respect, I respect your brand. Um, the quote.
There's nothing more humbling than a brand telling you that your brand is like too crass. They're like, maybe if you could not, I'm like, oh, she don't like the way my mother raised me.
I was wearing Khloe and Tabitha, my size was looking at me and I was looking at the toilet and she's like, don't do this. Don't do this to us. She goes, we've been doing so well. We've been doing so well and the fashion community is starting to take notice.
Like, what if I just?
Well, I was actually, oh, I wore Michael Kors too.
Haven't heard from him yet.
Um, but like, it was such a great article written by Stephanie McNeil, shout out. The, one of the quotes that was pulled, I was reading it and I was like, Hannah, you made zero sense to that quote. It basically was like, just make sure that you're being you. And you will always know that you can be you. If you question who you is, then you is you.
Put it on a shirt.
You know, every time you read yourself in an article, you're like, no, that doesn't make sense.
Yeah, I can't.
Well, you can't read, so.
Any updates? We had special merch.
That we were selling on tour. That was only on the road. You could only get it when you went to a Club Giggly show. We've now realized, we want to make it available for the public because the tour is over and we loved it. So we're adding. We're adding some inventory and it's now available at gigglysquad.com. Also, not to add to the chaos.
I don't know why I was gonna say, or wherever you get your Giggly Squad merch. It's like, literally one place.
People sell a lot of it.
Or wherever you get your podcasts.
Um, also, I'm announcing my tour. It's going on sale.
Wait.
I'm going on tour.
Can we talk about your fucking tour poster?
I haven't even officially dropped it yet.
Well, I accidentally DM'd someone else because I thought I was DMing you. Someone posted your tour.
Oh yeah, some of the venues are like promoting it.
Yeah, and I go, oh my god, stunning. And then I realized that it was just like, I was like, sorry.
They're like, wow, she's really hyping her friend up to like other people.
She goes, wait, how good looking does my friend look in this photo?
They literally thought I was DMing you.
That was the first, well, I, yes, first time I did, I've done like a full promo for a tour.
No, I love that.
I did the extensions, did the suit.
The extensions are, you're different.
It's called the None of My Business Tour.
I love it.
It's definitely like more personal. I talk about how it came to be and yeah, it's every city, pretty much.
Ever.
Are you laughing? I didn't know what the pitch was. How I, this is.
It's every city that exists.
Every city ever that ever was made.
That anyone's ever been to.
Yeah, including, I'm going to Nebraska for the first time.
I thought you were gonna say Alaska and I was like, I actually think that's one you can sit out. Like, are you kidding? They don't even have flight. With New York in the state that it's in, we can't.
We love you guys. Oh, lastly.
Our YouTube episode just dropped when we went. It was one of my favorite episodes.
We went to, we learned how to play baseball. I was very into you as a player, making it big. You weren't into it. But you loved your outfit.
I love my outfit, so I had a great time.
And you could do hit kitten heels or anything if you believe in Marilyn Monroe.
Last thing.
We should start off the bar going last thing.
Last thing. This is actually the last thing. You know how I went and spoke at my college and then it closed?
I'm going to speak at my high school tomorrow, so let's just say a prayer that it doesn't close after.
St. Anthony, St. Anthony. Wait, I'm so excited for you.
I'm so excited. They're doing their like seniors get like inducted into the alumni. And so this one senior reached out, asked me if I would be your sponsor.
And so I made like these little like, like PR gifting boxes to give like four of the girls that I meet. It's so cute.
Wait, you're so cute. Also tell the Gen Z's to say hi.
Yeah, I also haven't been back to my high school since the day I graduated.
Wait, you're gonna get a weird feeling. What I remember is it's so much smaller than you remember it. Not that they were, were that much taller than we were, but like, the school felt like huge.
It's like when you walk into a kindergarten class, you're like, this is my cubby.
I'm like, why is this door so low? The toilets are tiny.
For the principal, I'm like, you're so short.
No, it's gonna be so much fun. Um, I hope that the school doesn't get canceled. Thanks for gigging with us. We love you so much. Bye.
