Giggling about red carpets, mahjong, and imposter syndrome

you're welcome people have been messaging me like oh my god like you've been more cunty lately or you've been like serving more lately and i realize it's all since drag race because like drag race taught me that like to be the moment where like before i'm like i'm just hannah so like i kind of feel like where now i'm like i'm not hannah i'm just i'm just hannah in a dress i'm just like that's what i was doing and like i know like like other people they're like she's an icon she's the moment and i'm like well i'm just wearing a dress and now i walk in and i'm like i can be the moment you

they can sniff a certain way and they can sniff a certain way and they can sniff a certain way and confidence yeah and yeah i was actually at a shoot recently and they were like i had to like answer questions and one of them was like okay like what makes you feel confident and uh which is like obviously like a question people ask all the time of like in general and for a second i was just like i just like made it up in my head that i was yeah i literally made it up like i just said carpets and stuff i'm like okay so i have to put makeup on i have to be here and i think the gays like knew that

up to you because i'm not gonna leave it up to you because i'm not gonna leave it up to you i have a vision in mind can you use these colors when you send my trunk i'm like sure i love that though yeah if you don't have a trunk you don't have a baby no that's what i'm saying what came first the baby or the trunk if i haven't sent you a trunk for your baby just know i don't fuck with that baby if you have a trunkless baby if you have not received a trunk from me for your baby i'm sorry we're not real friends if you thought you were now you know where you stay now you know you haven't received a trunk wait also anything else from last culture east is it was fun to like sit back and like enjoy a performance yes it's so fun to like walk into a theater and not have a panic attack i know we're like never in that side of the theater yeah you know waiting for it to start and or we were just whispering to each other which is really fun oh my look i wanted to wear yeah let's bandana it ended up giving pirate and it also wasn't the normal size of a bandana it was like a big italian cavalli scarf so when we wrapped it up it was like bundling too much fabric and i i vetoed it i said girls gays we can't do this page has been through a lot she had a long day she just got off a six hour flight i don't want to like have to emotionally process this i said we're doing a scarf but then the scarf was causing drama all night poor josephine had to keep redoing josephine was on scarf duty my favorite comment was that i was dressed very you coded and you were dressed very me coded and like together we were still ourselves oh and i loved it well you were wearing tom brown tom ford oh tom i was wearing tom ford top and then i was wearing an area skirt the theme was a gay fever dream i thought the theme was evening wear i think maybe that was the attire but the theme was gay fever dream which i think you like you could wear whatever wait attire and theme are different yeah well like the attire is like how fancy it is so like you got an invitation to a wedding and black tie got it attire cocktail attire but like the overall theme was gay fever dream i thought the theme was evening wear i thought the theme was evening wear which i think is whatever you want it to mean when do you decide when to smile or not in a photo because i've been really playing with that i'm like i'm not smiling today it's just like whenever the wind hits me you know in a certain direction i'm like i'll give a smile you know what i don't do when people tell me to smile because i'm like you're not in charge of my aesthetic on instagram you've actually never full tooth smiled on a carpet i well i feel like i have because i've been like not to like fully chapel roan over here yeah but like i was bullied into the photographer will just be right there like five feet away from you and be like give us a smile and you're you just are like and then that's the photo they use no one talks about this because i may come off as unrelatable in this situation but you ever been on a red carpet and when there's like a and there's like all the camera people and a particular one like doesn't care about you not for like any particular reason just like doesn't give a shit so like they just turn to the side and wait for the next person and it's so and you're standing that like other people are taking pictures but this one guy just like doesn't give a fuck and it's so you're like okay so like did i do something like do you know you do not give a fuck because you just don't care or like you specifically don't it's very jarring but everything is fake in this world so like i've i've gone to a carpet before and like everything is fake and everything is owned by everything but people weren't excited and then like one camera guy recognized me it was like hey hannah and then the other one got excited and started taking pictures next you know they're all excited taking pictures it's like so sometimes like they'll start not knowing and then they see other people care so then they're like oh i'm supposed to care so everything's made up it's kind of like if you fake paparazzi people think you're important you know i mean and i don't think people at home know that before you get on the red carpet there's a whiteboard that they write your name on oh yeah that's before you get on the carpet so that they know who the fuck you are like a substitute teacher they're like this is hannah now everyone's gonna be nice to hannah today right burner with b-e-r-n-e-r i at um oh my god sports illustrated two weeks ago you have a bigger aura than me sometimes when you get out of a car i feel like people are like that's a celebrity okay thank you so much but you've like i feel like this is something that you've had since like the womb like you came out and the doctors were like they say get her out of the nursery she needs security put her in a private room yeah yeah you came out with sunglasses yeah and a lip gloss um and someone was um powdering your nose they were like okay she got a little shiny in there taylor was literally there as a baby powdering me they're like don't let her come out looking a mess i like will get out of a car and people assume i'm a publicist i think i can definitely walk in a way that no one will notice that i'm there if that makes sense so you marilyn monroe yourself i can i don't know if i can make myself look important but i could definitely like make myself look unimportant i walk out and i'm walking to this event and i guess there's always someone who's supposed to be your like handler and be like okay here's your id here's whatever you need to get into the event i always walk past them and they never see me and then at sports illustrated i was like with my little cousin andrea and she was helping me out and i was like girl we're gonna have a fun day vip sports illustrated i walk in and we're at the elevator and they're like do you have a wristband and i was like no and they're like did someone give it to you and i was like no and they're like well you need to get a wristband and i'm like i'm so i'm on i'm in the magazine yeah and this is like a big event with like lots of different people but i'm like i'm in the mac i'm in the magazine like i'm not trying to be a bitch but like you're like i'm the prettiest girl in america and so then i went to another place where they were giving out bands but i guess it was for like general public and i said to the girl like hey can i have a band and she's like what's your name and i was like hannah and she was like i don't have you on anything and my little cousin andrea is literally dying laughing because i walked in being like you're about to hang out with your cool yeah cousin and we're about to rock this town together and the lady looked at me she's like bitch i don't know who you are and why you're bothering me and i was like okay and then finally someone saw me and was like hannah you walk past the person and i was like i just walked in yeah so that happens to me all the time all the time but i also realized that i'd be a good spy i'd also say that in my life if someone said who's the most confident person that you know i would say you and i think that that's why i gravitate toward you because you're the most confident person in the world and i think that's why i gravitate toward you confidence like comes off onto me and then i feel more confident so basically i use you well i would argue that we both are really confident just in very different ways here's the thing with your best friend that like and look me and hannah have been in some like peculiar situations together that are so niche pickles like that like if we even explained it to you guys it'd be like i don't get like i don't know because it's so nuanced and so niche but everyone can relate to being in a situation with your friend and you look at them and like in your brains you're locking eyes and you're saying to each other we only have each other in this weird life and the amount of times even just this week that like i haven't even been in the same room with you but i've had the thought where i'm like and i only have hannah in this life like you actually got quiet at one point this weekend and i never felt more connected to you because you were like i don't know i don't know you knew that i knew you were being quiet and i was letting you be quiet because one thing you don't do as a best friend in public is start poking your friend to be like what's going on are you okay so i was just like i'm gonna let her have this and acknowledge give her an eye and she literally was like i'll talk to you later and i was like i'm ready i can't wait the second she's in the car my phone's blowing up i felt you sorry i just like got like a 1930s wave and i didn't even like okay i like caught a glimpse of myself you're like grace screenshot okay continue i forget what i was but yeah oh no no i did have a moment where like i felt your presence next to me but i wasn't looking at you and i knew that you knew that i was annoyed about something but i couldn't say it in the moment or around people and you just looked at me like okay and i said yeah and we had a full conversation i'm also not blowing up your spot i'm not blowing up your spot i'm just letting you know we're clocked we clocked it and i'm like okay i'm gonna get in the car and i'm like okay i'm gonna get in the car and i'm we'll discuss this later we talk about as women so much how like your friendships change when you get married when you have kids and like it's hard to like balance everything and i truly think that you and your friend just need to have one of those moments every six months and it keeps it on track you can keep up like you can go and not speak to them for a month because they're busy as long as the next time you see each other like you have that type of moment there's just nothing worse than being in a social out being outside and experiencing something and looking around and no one gets it and you're just like i'm alone in this world we're like i didn't even know what you were thinking but i knew that i would agree does that make sense and isn't that what life is isn't it just finding people that agree with you like you want to know what i actually don't care if people think i'm wrong because i know that i have a group of six girls that that 100 agree with me and my mom like at all times like butter that's a great example like you think butter's disagreeing with me butter is fighting for me every second wait not to bring up like an actual cat combo but like serious question because i've only had daphne for two years she's my first cat yeah obviously like don't you have a short-haired cat so i like can't call you sometimes because i'm like what like she's in a different situation and i'm like i'm not gonna call you situation i need to know if one i need to know how often you're brushing your long-haired cats and second i need to know if my cat is ai because i'm not kidding when daphne gets like a mat on her i genuinely feel like she comes to me shows it to me and like lets me get it off of her like i feel like other cats you have to like fight with them to brush it or like you know they don't want you like digging at the cat and i'm like i don't want to fight with them and i'm like i don't want to fight with them like i genuinely feel like kitty comes up to me and is like you're gonna let me walk around the house like this like fix this yeah and do i need to know that from the long-haired cat moms so my one thing i know is my mom brushes her cats even though they're kind of short hair but like they love getting brushed like okay they walk up to her to be like yeah brush me bitch yeah other side and the back and don't forget the front thank you sometimes i feel like she's judging my brushing like i feel like she wants to be like and this isn't what i pay you for bitch like do it better like if she could physically grab her brush and bring it to me i feel like she would support for today's episode comes from square the system powering like half the places i go we've built giggly squad into a full business at this point and between the podcast merch touring and everything there's a lot of moving parts and if there's one thing we've learned it's that you can be chaotic but your business cannot be square helps business owners focus on the fun parts creating things building something showing up not chasing down where a payment went or trying to figure out if something is in stock have you ever walked into a place and you're just like wow this business really has their life together you walk up you tap your card it's instant they already have your info the receipt just appears and everything is seamless why is it so smooth that's square and once you notice it you'll notice it everywhere coffee shop salon boutiques which makes sense because it's not just a place to be you're not going to be in a place to be because square basically runs everything behind the scenes it's not just payments it's inventory online orders scheduling team management reports all in one place so instead of business owners juggling five different apps and trying to make them all talk to each other it's just handled i noticed it the other day in cat's deli because i love a turkey sandwich and now that i have my own brand i realize how important it is that everything just works the back end matters so much more than people think and we may not always be the most organized but square keeps everything else under control you don't need an i.t team or a degree in accounting and also businesses using square online earn 36 percent more revenue on average, which makes sense.

I was in a long conversation this morning in DMs with a giggler who sent me a photo of a cat. And she sent me options for names. Guys, I can't come up with names off of nothing. I need to know like. So she gave me some good options. Wait, there's a girl on TikTok that literally started a business where you can pay her and she'll brainstorm baby names for you. You give her like certain things about you and your husband and she'll brainstorm based on your personality. She was like, I just realized I was good at it on TikTok a couple of years ago because celebrities would get pregnant. I'd probably get pregnant. And I would like kind of get it right a lot of the time. Oh, so she's magical. So she started an entire business where she will brainstorm baby names for you based on you. Instead of Etsy witch breakup, she's doing Etsy witch babies. I'm obsessed with her. Also, I was talking to someone yesterday who had a baby and I was like, what's your baby's name? And they were like, my wife and I actually haven't decided yet. So we just call it baby. And I was like, how old is baby? And they were like, eight months. And they're like, we can't decide just baby. But they have a, another kid. So they just call it like there's this kid and baby. Wait, I thought like they, I was under the impression that like, they don't let you leave the hospital. I know, but named your baby. So many things in this life just seem like a movie and easy, but it's not like, I think if you're at home, it's also so much pressure what you named the baby. Cause that's like their whole identity for the rest of their life. And like, I don't know. I think sometimes people are too casual about it. Also, I was asking my friend, Katie, who literally just had a baby. I was just thinking to say, just had a baby drop last week, new baby dropping, dropped her new baby. Hell yeah. Baby drop in a week. And like, we've been chatting. Oh. And also I was like, Oh, I want to come see the baby. And I completely forgot that you have to like, wait a certain amount of weeks to like see a baby. Yeah. So it was like, totally forgot about that. But when the eight weeks is up, I am in fact busy. So I'll catch him later. Do you have another baby dropping? When's the next drop? No, but we were talking about how, like she was saying how, how after you give birth and everything's over and you like sleep and you're ready to leave that you just leave. And she was like, and it is so weird that they're just like, okay, bye. Good luck. Like see ya. Like in my head, they send a police officer home with me to like make sure where you're even bringing this baby home is suitable. Like no one's coming and checking. It's such a crazy concept. Yeah. But then I thought just like Hannah losing her bag at sports illustrated, you're handing it to a woman. So what bad could happen? Literally the doctor, if it's a man, he's like, please take this away from me. I'm exhausted. Handing it over to a woman who you know is going to do the right thing. And honestly, what's changed my brain chemistry is I saw a quote that said the only people that live on earth are women and their children. And I'm obsessed because that is the only. The only humans that live on earth is women and their children can include cats. I do have to say this cat that was sent, she sent me options. And then I thought of, I really want someone to name their cat Pepper. I think Pepper's so cute. But she was like, this cat has some like brown undertones. And I was like, how about Mocha? And we ended up going with Cinnamon and her nickname is Minnie. Cute. They're never going to call that cat Cinnamon. Unless she's really naughty. Cinnamon. If you've named a cat Cinnamon, you're going to call it Cinnamon. If you've named a cat and you already have their nickname, you're never calling it their real name. Yeah. Or yeah. Yeah, that's true. But now I feel like I have, you know, didn't Sheena or didn't you like get bought a penguin by like, you know, I can't believe you would bring this up right now. Wait, that was so fucked up. I bought a penguin for an ex-boyfriend one time and I genuinely think I was scammed. But also it was the cutest. I, it was such a sweet gift. That's how I feel about every Giggler's cat. I'm like, give me a penguin. I'm like, give updates on our cat yes but where is that penguin i don't know where that penguin is because they never responded to my emails but then i like still get emails from the place like to this day honestly that penguin sensed the energy and was like not here you're not adopting me now what's going on over there you got me fucked up i'd rather be in the wild please page six or whatever put a headline page and her ex abandoned penguin decide they don't want to co-parent no one knows who the penguin is i used to get asked about that penguin all the time oh my god i think she had a penguin at one point oh i think she might have i'm like such a fangirl like sheena can do no wrong to me like ever when she commented on this um advertisement we have up for hulu dropping and she wrote it's all happening and i'm like does no one understand the gravity of this wait i saw sheena also nobody gives credit to sheena and how funny she is like like inconsistent no her comedic timing is actually hilarious and people literally don't give her credit um there was something about like summer house and i think it was something about like jesse solomon and he was like making a post about himself or like i don't know something and sheena commented and was like okay sheena like making the whole scandal i don't know what's going on i don't know what's going on i don't know about you like and i was just like that's hilarious and that's funny also not to get in the weeds but she like told a story about how her ex put up a tv and it took him like only like three minutes seven minutes that's hilarious like why why is everyone taking shit so seriously if my friend was like he put up a thing in seven minutes i'd be like that's fucking hilarious she's obviously like so funny just starting a good conversation about how long it takes men to do things like why was that turned into like oh we're really they canceled because of that in like the beginning years of vanderpump too like they were really mean to her and i'm like this girl is hilarious like even when she first got on the show i was like everyone thinks i look like britney spears i'm like this is a tv goal i'm obsessed with this person obsessed obsessed um so yeah i had this interview and the lady who's actually like giggler hilarious we had such a good conversation and then there's a part of the interview they always like to get a little deeper after they're like what's going on and she's like i don't know what's going on and i'm like what's going on in your life and she was like you talk about having imposter syndrome especially as a stand-up comedian who came from reality tv like what do you do to you know be confident in yourself and i was just kind of like answering questions but like this light bulb goes up and i was like i've never said that i've never like i was gonna go with it but then i was like you cannot be a people pleaser right now like that's literally everything you stand against and i go i'm so sorry i don't know where you read that i know you read that i don't know where you read that i don't know where you read that i don't know where you read that i don't know where you read that imposter syndrome like i could actually benefit from like a little bit of imposter syndrome because i'm out here like singing i literally to this day still think i can hit the cynthia riva note right and it almost cost me my friendship with page during tour and she wait wait before you finish the story we're sitting at las culturistas we're in the middle of the show i feel a tap on my shoulder i look over a hand and go so you really would never sing and dance could tell she's watching this performance and in like a normal person's like wow they're doing so well my friend is like i could fucking do this i could get up there i could learn this dance right now and i knew she was thinking next giggly squad live tour there will be a singing and dance moment and i looked at her and i go no i would have joined the theater and i was like you could you don't have to move like i'll do something around you and you literally like i can't do this right now i'm trying to understand and i was like okay well i'm planning choreography just letting you know and she's like i'll deal with this later the show we'll talk about this after we were literally a married couple she's like can we talk about this in the car i'm not doing this in front of everyone oh my god there's a clip going around from our our zoom dance you dancing on zoom was so funny you were doing like she was a different girl she was she had a bigger i see old photos of you i just love looking at it because i was i'm like i miss her i mean i'm biased but i feel like we're exactly the same except we're smarter and less reactive um so anyway i feel like it's assumed a lot of the time that women have imposter syndrome like i feel like whenever anyone's successful they're always like how are you handling the fact that you're successful and i'm like because this is the only way i will survive or i'll feel like i have no purpose in life because i've been chasing this since i was born because this is all i meant to do like what do you want me and i i don't know if they would ask men that like when a man blows up are they like alex warren do you have imposter syndrome or somber do you have imposter syndrome never one time have i seen a guy answer that question because the equivalent to that question for men i feel like is oh my god can you believe you're you've made it to this point in your career it's not that you've like where with it's like you've had to have been doubting the whole time this is shocking you're doubting yourself you're questioning yourself you're shocked that we're here where men it's like doesn't it feel good no but like when you start in reality tv everything gets harder because everyone's like but you're on reality tv so you can't do this you can't do this you can't do this you can't do this and you're like i'm sorry that i got casted for something and it actually wasn't my dream you're like if we really think about it i couldn't do reality tv i actually can do that i try really breaking it down instead of call me reality tv star we should just be like she wasn't able to do it she wasn't really on that much no i don't know what it is i think probably also i think because reality tv is mainly women so i think it's also looked at absolutely as like not skilled stupid it's when in reality it's like the number one connection we have to like anthropology like watching how women react to certain situations watching how friendships evolve watching how like just your lives change in general from different ages you can watch in real time now granted there's obviously editing but like you so there's some people on reality tv that have you've watched them you've watched them for 20 years can i actually give a metaphor reality tv is like anthropology but it's more like reading a history book where at the time you're like this is facts but then you realize that the history book was in fact written by humans and there's always a bias for example i'd have to literally smoke a joint to get through the start start over like history books yes were written differently in the south than the north yes they tell the story of our nation differently based on what they want you to know and how they want you to perceive it yes okay so what i'm saying is reality tv when you look back you realize like oh that was a time when it was popular for this or they wanted this angle and it's not straight facts it's through the lens and the narrative they want you to see it from so that's why i love when people get more information when they go back and they're able to be like wait now that i know this this scene looks completely different wait okay were you done with the imposter syndrome story if you want me to be oh no i just no i i mean i could talk about forever i didn't know if you finished the story so what did you end up saying to the person oh i i just i was kind of proud i stood up for myself and i was like i actually don't think i've said that which is like kind of awkward like you don't want to have to say that but i was like i've never said that and it's not what i yeah i don't have imposter syndrome and i'm happy to be here i'm just happy to be here happy to be involved i'm happy to be involved you're doing great at your job you're doing great i'm doing great did you ever have imposter syndrome and think how to whatever imposter syndrome is like you telling yourself you shouldn't be here which i have had in other things yeah like tennis i had imposter syndrome before because i'm like i'm not being a successful comedian you're like i know that's just art like i'm like if the people laugh you were funny right that that really gets rid of your imposter syndrome once you get that first laugh but yeah if you're a girl listening you don't have to have imposter syndrome it's not like part of our dna you can just like believe in yourself and then when the good things happen you go yeah i knew like page you don't have imposter syndrome no i knew from a very young age that i was meant for more i just knew it i there's actually so many different situations in my life that i was telling people like i was being rude to people to be like how dare you say i'm not gonna do what i say i'm gonna do like okay you don't think you're gonna be famous i do like get away from i always thought i was gonna be famous actually there was a moment when i was in my early 20s i just graduated college i moved to new york city and i had a moment where i was like oh i was gonna be famous by 17 and i'm like 23 and i've like haven't done it yet and i remember thinking like am i just gonna like stay at my job and not try and getting really upset that i had like missed becoming famous you're like i'm 22 i missed it well i think i had a like modeling agent say if you're not famous by 17 it's really hard to like break it people love saying that stuff to people yeah and i think that like stayed with me for a long time and i think that's why i'm like in my head for however many years and then i um remember i got like got summer house and i just thought yeah like i'm this was supposed to happen because also you were so ready for your moment like when that happened you'd been so over prepared and ready like when you sat down that confessional you were like i trained for this go it wasn't like oh no what's happening to me this is all unfamiliar you had already seen it in your head a bazillion times and like ben performed you ready you knew the outfit totally i knew yeah i knew i was meant to be on a red carpet getting in a fight with a paparazzi about smiling i think it's time for a woman in stem of the week i have so many submissions now weekly in my dms it's i'm getting overwhelmed we actually have to hire a new employee to handle all the all of those but um because we want to highlight real women like like everything that started as a bit so now i feel bad when the real women in stem are like hey how about highlight us and we're like okay but she like tied her hair with a cute bow yeah no i know i was like this is a bit this girl was like hey i just graduated cornell like engineering science she's like hey i made the rocket like any rocket i made it and we're like okay but did you use a straw as a makeup brush no these girls are so smart one girl i think she's like a doctor she's like i saved like the lives of two twins today and i was like hey not really the right fit for the segment it's not really the voice and like the angle we want but like obsessed with your work and you do have imposter syndrome for our personal women of the week but also would you ever ask like a doctor a female doctor like do you have imposter syndrome when you go into surgery it's like no this is who i am no because if she said yes you then realize you're dying in that moment like that's this if your doctor has imposter syndrome that's really honestly though so many gynecologists i've gone to definitely have imposter syndrome because they had no idea what the fuck was going on anyway that's for a different pissed off of the week so women of snow of the week don't know her name or anything but there is a girl going around who realized that you could do your own color analysis by just going to home depot and you walk behind the wall of colors and you just take photos of yourself and then color analysis are made up anyway so you can then decide what you like what's best for you hannah we have to go no i know well okay do you think color analysis is messed up is made up but like no you know but we know when they show it you'll be like i like her in that color and they're like that's a horrible color and i'm like isn't like it'd be like the most subtle i don't know i think there's obviously very there can be subtle things that you're like yeah you could go with whatever you want but i don't know either way but i think it is real because there are sometimes like okay um like colors wash me out for sure but a bunch of girls went to like somewhere and did it like a bunch of influencers i forget it was like an influencer trip or something and you could like when they like the blondes with blue eyes when they did like the dark colors you could instantly tell that they looked way better in like the bright colors because their eyes just popped and it looked so i definitely think it's real i think there are certain things if you have like a complex like i think our complexion can go like both ways i'm so flattered you're putting my complexion i know and then i look down at you and i'm sorry no so i'm told i have she's way more fair-skinned i have all of undertones because of my sicilian which you have but then because of my like european mutt i have kind of rosacea so i don't have rosacea i just have a reddish hue that like yeah yeah you don't have yeah so do you know what colors you think you are or i i like kind of but like i would love to do a color analysis um but like i'm also like yeah someone has blue eyes we're blue okay i don't even pay someone to fucking i tell des we're blue we're navy we're this shade of blue no i need to go get it done also i can't believe i didn't tell you this my mom visited and i don't know i feel like as you get older you just like cherish every day with your mom where i'm you're not like okay we're not going to do anything i'm like what do we do she told me that she had some friends playing mahjong and she doesn't know how to play and i was like i think you can like get mahjong lessons so i went on instagram and i was like mahjong lesson dm someone next day they came over to our house me my mom and two professional mahjong girlies put down the mahjong mat and for three hours i felt like i was at harvard we learned how to play mahjong it's really difficult but i felt like i was learning a new language and i was like i can't wait to be in like a mahjong group drama wait wait wait page mahjong is taking over as like because it's kind of a language that like you need to know it to play it and then once you're in it it's like an art form and it could take three hours the game it's basically like i don't know if you ever played gin rummy with like your grandpa yeah why would i bring him up um it's like rummy cub but with tiles it's like rummy cub if you were on mushrooms and cocaine so it's and what people like is because aren't all the tiles like pictures they're gorgeous they're all like glass and they the backs are really pretty and you could do all different styles but they all have like a certain thing that they're called um and it's based off of like the original game is chinese and this is really confusing but every year there's a different card to like make the game more challenging that you play off of it's like crazy so now i have just so much respect for people who play mahjong because it's so complicated but like now i like kind of want to be in a mahjong league it's so funny because my assistant josephine is always trying to play games yeah he loves a game like anytime we're you're like let's try responding to an email and we have five she'll be like how about we play cards i'm like we are in the middle of a shoot you also when there's a show you're not like starting also you're not learning a game no the one day the one day she did make me play cards we were like at my apartment waiting for something and like we just had time and she was like you know we could and i was like well do you even have it and she was like of course i keep it in my bag and now there's like this new game that she wants to teach me and we were at a shoot today and she was like if i had brought it like we could have played it on set and i'm like we're at work technically like she's like no i actually canceled the job so i can't start playing that unless i play with unless i bring her so maybe like me you grace and josephine join like some type of mahjong league yeah mahjong call up i just think like before phones like people play cards and games i also heard because i was talking to some people this one woman has a 15 year old daughter who's obsessed with like buying a walkman and like all the nostalgia of like the late 80s early 90s so like the kids i think after gen z there's a generation that saw gen z and was like wait maybe we should not be online as much and i don't know gen alpha is just as fucking maybe before gen alpha but i think like it's funny the world is realizing like we gotta undo some stuff because we've gone too far i think whatever our generation's kids are they're gonna be fine i think once like the young all the younger millennials have kids we'll save the world it's fine just add it to our goddamn tab of things that we've had to deal with now we have to fix the whole human race like can i say one thing that pissed me off this week yes i love when other people get pissed off a man a man called me sweetheart give me the context like it was like in passing like it was like an older man that was just like do you know where this is like not in a creepy way but it's like i think we're done with that like i don't oh you love that i hate that i love that because like okay how old not like 80 that's fine that's okay he was probably like 60 okay so he's someone's dad yeah don't call me sweetheart also i'm 34 see i don't hate it because you like being a sweetheart am i around a lot of creepy men no i'm like wait a minute no because i feel like i've heard that growing up my whole life from either like my uncles or my dad's being like sweetheart can you get like yeah my dad never called i don't know but yeah i guess like a man that you don't know but also i realize i am projecting but like yeah in my household i wasn't sweetheart i was a bad bitch so like when a man tries to infantilize me and call me sweetheart i'm like i'm nobody's sweetheart i'll ruin your fucking life sweetheart sweetheart i'm gonna start calling men sweetheart imagine i go thanks sweetheart thanks sweetheart that's how you know it's wrong because if i can't do it back to you don't do it to me even just the context in which i put that in like oh well i feel like there's a lot of men in my life that like in my life i've been called sweetheart is there anything that like our moms have called the boy like any boy well it's funny to think of like what boys call each other they call each other boss boss chief like thanks chief chief they get chief and boss and we get sweetheart or ma'am yeah have you been called ma'am yet yeah that's like a slur yeah i've been called ma'am by like a 15 year old well i had to be 16 because it was like a valet parking attendant and i looked and i was like that just made me really upset but and then i ran the math in my head like yeah he saw me and was like this old bitch is someone's mom see i have imposter syndrome where i think we're 27 not when you talk to someone that's like 16 yes with us like around people like us yeah talking to you i'm 27 when i'm dealing with anyone under 25 i'm a strong 33 i'm even pushing 40 because i'm like you're doing what with who even my friends that are like two years younger i'm like you're drinking at this hour it's 11 p.m you know when you're talking to older people and they make references of like movies and actors and you're like and they're like you don't know who that is and you're like no yeah yeah yeah and you're like that's so annoying like why would you even say that but then you literally do it to them you're like you don't know who justin timberlake is and they're like what i'm like you don't fucking know you well in our defense we didn't have social media to learn those things they have social media all our famous people are still famous for them des will bring something up and be like you never saw that movie i'm like when did it come out and he's like 1992 i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i'm like i couldn't walk i was i couldn't even put a sentence together and what was it i had to wait for a rerun that my dad had to click like you know the chances i literally just stepped out of my mom's vagina give me a minute like i don't even have my own room yet whatever happened to hi hello how are you and i guess some people's parents were a little more like you gotta watch these cult classics but like i was busy and also it literally was every night my dad was watching the knicks and then going during the commercial breaks he would like go to the middle of the godfather and i'd watch it from the middle and then i'd go back i don't care as much like when i meet someone younger and we're talking about something that's very millennial coded and they're like i haven't seen it or i don't know it i don't get upset about that i'm like yeah why would you unless you had an older sibling but when i meet someone that's my age and i bring up a show and i'm like for example like clarissa explains it all or like sabrina the teenage witch um boy meets world and someone's like oh i didn't watch that that's when i'm like what were you doing because i was the same age and i know that it was a friday night and it was tgif friday so where were you when boy meets world was on what were you watching wait what's clue what's clarissa what's clarissa who's clarissa clarissa explains it all what is it was her show before it was clarissa explains it all okay and she sits in her room and the guy comes up from her window you know that was okay that's from 1991 to 1996 so you were watching reruns no i was watching it in 1996 when you were four it was on oh maybe i was watching reruns that i'm just saying that was a throwback a little bit you know i hold you accountable i have a memory of watching even stevens like put it into my veins yes even stevens okay yeah and okay you know what i digress you know what like it's been a fucking long day it's one o'clock like even stevens came out in 2000 we were on wait this is this is actually really diabolical hannah's in a different time zone and last night it was like midnight new york time and hannah's like we could do like a late night giggly episode i'm like it's midnight i can't do giggly i was like do you want a party you're like hey i want to sit for an hour and talk about everything that annoys us put it on the internet i do have to say it would have been an epic episode i was like shooting something yesterday and a giggler was there and she's like have you recorded the pod yet i'm like no like should we record it tonight while you texted me that i was full face mask hair mask i was like i'm a little busy well that's something at night you actually like have a second job at night which is like undoing the day and like being prepared for the night next day where i actually am kind of creatively at my peak at 11 p.m when you share a bed with a man like so many things can happen but like one of the things is like them knowing your schedule and like if i want to get up because you've already fallen asleep and i haven't even fallen asleep yet and i want to do things downstairs like different projects on my own like it's none of your business wait projects we have to do projects to stay sane yeah like if i'm not going to I get a hankering to organize my hair closet closet and the hair closet is right next to the bed that's not my business i literally i have to do it no but my problem is des falls asleep during the mech game around 7 30 and then he i put him down around set around eight and then obviously i have to brush my teeth sometimes i have to shower like these this is not conducive and sometimes i'll truly be laying in bed and this man will be falling asleep next to me and i will be wide awake and in my head i'll be like i didn't have enough time with me today and so i physically have to get up from the bed go onto the couch do something different do something that's just for me and i don't think there's enough women out here talking about what we're doing from the hours of a like 10 30 p.m to like i'm gonna say 2 a.m i was gonna say because i know there's a lot of women that are we're up there's a word for it where it's like you have to make up for lost time and the you have to make up for lost time and the you have to make up for lost time and the that you didn't spend by yourself yes that's how i feel that's how i feel if i worked all day if i woke up with a man in the morning i worked all day and then i'm going home at and i'm getting in bed with that same said man i had no time alone i had no time alone like if it's a different man that's all different situation you're right you're ready flavors yeah you've got new things say man you're like i need to be alone for a second that's when i scoop kitty up i was gonna say does kitty love this like second time of the day where you hang out alone with her she loves it yes well yeah because like when i when there's a man in bed it's a different aura because like usually it's just the two of us she's on her side i'm on my side like she likes what i watch on tv we don't ever disagree about it like she doesn't want any of my snacks i don't want any of hers so when there's a man in the bed it throws off the whole situation yeah butter when i'm just sleeping alone she's literally you could tell in her eyes she's like i could lay anywhere kitty's purrs go crazy don't even need a sound machine with us don't even need a sound machine just pet her head it's the best oh anyway you guys it is gonna be an amazing week for everyone we love you so so so much and thank you for giggling with us talk to you soon bye
