Giggling about red carpets, mahjong, and imposter syndrome

(upbeat music) - Sup, giggler? - Gary, fix your Wi-Fi. - Manifest that shit. - We can't be manners. (laughing) - I'm in the day just got away from me. - Hello, my gay gigglers. - Yes! - Happy Pride! Our favorite month of the year! - How have we never used that during Pride? - Because I saved it. - Even though every month with the gigglers is gay. - Thank God. - Not to immediately talk about myself. - I was gonna talk about you. - Oh my God, thank you. But people have been messaging me like, oh my God, you've been more country lately or you've been serving more lately. And I realize it's all since Drag Race. 'Cause Drag Race taught me to be the moment, where before I'm just Hannah's so I kind of feel like, yeah, I'm wearing a dress. Where now I'm like, I'm not Hannah, I'm not. - I'm just, I'm just Hannah in a dress. - I'm just Hannah in a dress. Like that's what I was doing. And I know like other people they're like, she's an icon, she's the moment. And I'm like, I'm just wearing a dress. And now I walk in and I'm like, I can be the moment. You guys eat all in your head. And now people are like, oh Hannah, like the gays are starting to like me more. - Yep. - And I just wear a scarf. - Do you wanna know also what the gays respond to? Confidence, like they can sniff a certain confidence. And 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 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 set it one day and then that was it. - I didn't understand like red 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 like deep down. I didn't have my heart in my soul into it. But now I'm like, no, have fun with this. You get to like be this character and be this like version of you. - Dare I say the gays have the best radar when someone's pretending? - Well the gays call up bullshit. - Yeah. Kathy Griffin TikTok where it's like someone get a gay. I need a gay. I need a gay right now. I think this old TikTok was posted where I said, when someone says something mean to me and I need to think of a good comeback. I'm like, I need a gay. Can someone find a gay for me? - That's HOTRA. - They read everything. They're great readers. - They are. And listeners. - And listeners when they have to be. But speaking of the gays, yeah. We were at Las Cult Reistas, which was a parade. - Did you have so much fun? - I had so much fun. The like combination of people was so good. Like it's like when you get invited to a party and I was like, I can't believe I got invited to this party. - It's just a night of comedy and fun and outfits and it's my dream. - Well I feel like I have to thank you because the gays first noticed us because of you. And then you showed up in that hat last time and they lost their fucking, they were gagging, they gagged, they gagged. You were so dominant with the gays. - The hat was intentional because I knew my audience there. - You had them in the palm of your hands and they ate it up. And it was so good that to this point, they were like, you could bring your weird friend. (laughing) Like they were like, page you could do whatever you want. You could bring your weird friend. And then I came and they were like, okay, kind of serving. Thanks for showing up. - They were like, they're like, thank you. - You couldn't bring her any time you want. - Oh, that's a little, I got invited to the cool gay party. - I'm like, I told you guys you were gonna like her. Just give her a chance. - You were literally, look to me and you were like, this is your moment. You're ready for the gays. - What were we talking about this week? And you were like, oh, that's kind of like, shoot, I lost it. (laughing) You said something really funny this week but it was like a comparison of something and I feel like we were at Las Cultures and now I can't remember. - Oh, I did a metaphor. - It was so funny and it just made me think of it. - Well, thanks for acknowledging something I said made you laugh. I don't do a lot of metaphors, but when I do, so this week is my special week. It comes out Friday. - Friday. - I've been doing some press and I had a funny moment during press. - Wait, before you say that and I just say that Hannah was the so Hannah about her special coming out, like a couple of weeks ago, she was like, okay. So who should I invite to my party? And this is like what I think I'm gonna do. And then like a week later, she was like, nicks the party. Think it's stupid, not doing it. (laughing) - No, I had a 200 person guest list, 200 people. And I was like, no, we're not doing this. But actually, I'll tell you right now on the pod, something new just came out. Well, we were gonna do a screening and it got canceled. Logistics weren't working and I have an idea. I don't know if you're around though, but Taylor Strucker just had a baby that I haven't seen. I think I'm just gonna throw a catered, like dinner get together from like seven to 10 at Taylor Struckers. - What is her having a baby have to do with that? - A baby makes a party. - Oh. - And she has a rooftop if you don't like babies. - Oh, perfect. I'm out of town. - Are you actually? Oh my God. 'Cause I was like, oh you love this Taylor Strucker. Okay, fine. - I do love Taylor Strucker and I would love to meet her baby. I've only ever gifted her baby something and I haven't even looked her in the eyes and introduced myself. - That's actually so you, you love a baby gift. - Did you love a baby? - Did you get her the trunk? - Yeah, of course it's what I give everyone as a baby. I'm like, and here's a memorabilia trunk. Monogrammed with your baby's name. Now like I have, everyone knows I send that trunk. So like now my girlfriends who are having babies aren't even waiting for me to send the trunk. They're sending their color requests. They're like, not gonna leave it up to you because 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. - That's what I'm saying. - What came first, the baby of the trunk? - If I haven't sent you a trunk for your baby, just know, I don't fuck with that baby. (laughing) - If you have a trunk with a baby. - If you have not received a trunk from me for your baby, I'm sure we're not real friends. - If you thought you were, now you know where you stand. - Now you know. If you haven't received a trunk. - Wait, also anything else from Moscow to Ristas, 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. (laughing) - I know, we're like never in that side of the theater. - Yeah. - You know, waiting for it to start and we were just whispering to each other, which is really fun. My look, I wanted to wear a 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 vetoed it. I said, girls, gays, we can't do this. Paige 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, babe. We're doing a scarf. But then the scarf was causing drama all night. Poor Josephine had to keep breathing. - Poor Josephine was on scarf duty. - My favorite comment was that I was dressed very you coded if 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 Ford. - 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 could wear whatever. - A tire and theme were different? - Yeah, well, like the attire is like how fancy it is. So like if you got an invitation to a wedding in black tie, attire, cocktail attire, but like the overall theme was gay fever dream, which I think is whatever you wanted to mean. - So when do you decide when to smile or not in a photo? 'Cause I've been really playing with that. I'm like, I'm not smiling today. - It's just like whenever the wind hits me 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? 'Cause I'm like, you're not in charge of my aesthetic on Instagram. - You've actually never full-toothed smiled on a carpet. - Well, I feel like I have, because I've been like pulling into it, not to like fully chapel-roan over here. But like I was bullied into it. - Yeah, the photographer will just be right there, like five feet away from you and be like, give us a smile. And you just are like, hey, 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've 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 there, and you know, 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 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 shit 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. and you are I at home so 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 you this is something that you've had since like the womb like you came out in the doctors were like they said 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 and someone was powdering your nose they were like okay she got 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 with me 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 important 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 it's where it's illustrated I was like with my little cousin Andrea and she was helping me out and I was like girl working up a fun day VIP where it's illustrated I walk in and we're at the elevator and they're like do you have a wristband and I was like no 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 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 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 while you're bothering me and I was like 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 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 your 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 neat 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 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 I got like a 1930s wave and I didn't even like okay Cindy Crawford I like hot glimpses it makes me really great screen shot 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 I'm going to focus 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 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 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 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 is that what life is isn't it just finding people that agree with 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 it 100% agree with me like at all times like butter that's a great example like you think butter's disagreeing me butter is like fighting for me every second wait now 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 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 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 their 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 so 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-haired but like they love getting brushed like okay they walk up to her to be like yeah brush me bitch yeah 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 is the one I pay you for bitch like do it better like if she could physically grab her brush and bring into 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 shops salon boutiques which makes sense 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 cats jelly 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 matter 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 IT team or a degree in accounting and also businesses using square online earn 36% 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 children 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 years ago because celebrities would get pregnant, I predict the baby name and I would like kind of get it right. A lot of it. 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, hold this baby and they were like eight months and they were like, we can't decide just baby, but they have another kid. So they just call it like, there's this kid and baby. Wait, I thought I'd like they, there was a bridge over there. I was wondering if they impression that like, they don't let you leave the hospital. I know, but I've 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 need the baby because that's like their whole identity for the rest of their life. And like, I don't know, I think sometimes people would you 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. Drop turn new baby. Hell yeah. Baby dropping 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. You do have another baby dropping? Once an extra. But we were talking about how like as you were 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. So 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. Just 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 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 is 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 nicknames mini. They're never going to call that cat cinnamon. Unless she's really naughty. 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 she know or didn't you like get bought a penguin by like, can I can't believe you would bring this up right now? Wait, that was so fucking hot. A penguin for an ex-boyfriend one time. And I genuinely think I was scammed. It was the cutest. It was such a sweet gift. That's why I feel about every giggler's cat. I'm like, give me 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 adopted me. That was going not over there. I mean, fucked up, I'd rather be in the wilds. Please page six or whatever put a headline page on her ex abandoned penguin. Decide they don't want to co-parent. No one knows what penguin is. I used to get asked about that penguin all the time. Oh my god. She now had a penguin at one point. Oh, I think she might have. I'm like such a fan girl. Like Sheena can do no wrong to me, like, ever when she commented on this, um, advertise when 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 of a something about like, Jesse Solomon. And he was like making a post about himself for like, I don't know, something. And Sheena commented and was like, okay, Sheena, like making the whole scandal 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 them, like, only like three minutes, seven minutes. That's hilarious. Like why, why is everyone taking she's 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, funny. Just starting a good conversation about how long it takes meant to do things. Like why was that turned into like, oh, we're really canceled her because of that. And like, the beginning years of Vanderbombed you, like, they were really mean to her. And I'm like, this girl is hilarious. 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. 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 the, like, what's going on in your life. And she was like, you talk about having imposter syndrome, especially as a standup 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 is like what's up? And I was like, I've never said that. I've never , like, I was going to go with it. But then I was like, you cannot be a people who's 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 need to have 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 this in Theoreva note. Right. And it almost cost me my friendship with Paige during tour. And she, wait, wait, before you've been in the story, we're sitting out last cultureista. 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 in dance stage like I 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 in 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're 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 I'll deal with the show. We'll talk about this after we were literally a mere couple. She's like, we talk about this in the car. Not doing this in front of everyone. Oh my god. There's a clip going around from our Zoom dance. You dancing on Zoom was so funny. You were doing like, she was a different girl. She had a figure. She old photos of you. And I just love looking at it because I was unlike I miss her. I mean, I'm biased, but I feel like we're exactly the same except we're smarter and less reactive. So anyway, I feel like it's assumed a lot of the time that women have in posture 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 to do? I mean, I don't know if they would ask men that. Like when a man blows up or they like, Alex Warren, do you have a posture syndrome or sombre? Do you have a posture 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 women. I mean, it's like you've had to have been doubting the whole time. - You're doubting yourself. - You're shocked, you're shocked that we're here, where men, it's like, doesn't it feel good? - No, but when you start in reality TV, everything gets harder, 'cause everyone's like, "But you aren't 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. (laughing) - I actually can do that. - I'm really breaking it down. - Instead of calling me reality TV star, we should just be like, she wasn't able to do it. - She wasn't really on that much. (laughing) 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 as, like, - Not skill, stupid. - Not skill, stupid. - 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, there's some people on reality TV that 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. We're 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 this and start over. - Like history books 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 impostor syndrome story? - If you want me to be. - Oh no, I just know. I mean, I can talk about it forever. - I didn't know if you finished this story. So what did you end up saying to the person? - Oh, 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 impostor 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 a little bit. - And you're doing great at your job, I'm doing great. - I'm doing great, did you ever have impostor syndrome and think how to, whatever? And impostor syndrome is like you telling yourself you shouldn't be here, which I have had in other things. - Yeah, like tennis I had impostor syndrome before 'cause 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 laughed, you were funny. - Right. - That really gets rid of your impostor syndrome once you get that first laugh. But yeah, if you're a girl listening, you don't have to have impostor 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 know. Like Paige, you don't have impostor syndrome? - No, I knew from a very young age that I was meant for more. I just knew it. 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 had just graduated college, I moved to New York City and I had a moment where I was like, oh my God. I said I was gonna be famous by 17 and I'm like 23 and I haven't done it yet. And I remember thinking like, am I just gonna 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 miss it. - Well, I think I had a like modeling agency. 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 in my head for however many years and then I remember I 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 changed 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 but it was a zillion times and like. - I've been performing. - You saw yourself walking at the premiere already. - 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. (laughing) - 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 think, overwhelmed right now. - We actually have to hire new employee to handle all the, all of those, but because we want to highlight real women, like everything this 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 tied her hair with a coupon. - No, I know, 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 product? (laughing) - 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 this segment. (laughing) 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 in STEM of the week. - Bye. - 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 the, if your doctor has imposter syndrome, that's really, honestly, those so many kind of colleges I've gone to, definitely I've got imposter syndrome because they had no idea what the fuck is going on. Anyway, that's where a different pissed off of the week. (laughing) So women are so the week, don't know her name or anything, but there is a girl going around who realize 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. - Can we have to go? - No, I know. Well, okay, do you think color analysis is made up? But like now, you know, but when they show it, you'll be like, I like her in that color like that's a horrible color. And I'm like, is it like, are we 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 either way, but I think it is real because there are sometimes, like, okay, 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 forgot. It was like an influencer trip or something. And you could tell 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 sometimes. - I'm so flattered you're putting my complexion in the same way as me. - I know, and then I look down at you and I say, (laughing) - No, it's like, I'm told I have, it's way more fair skinned. - I have all of undertones 'cause 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, that's-- - 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. - But like, I'm also like-- - And we need to-- - Yeah, someone has blue eyes, we're blue, okay? I don't even pay someone the fucking, I tell does, 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 gonna 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 a majong. group drama. Wait, wait, wait. Page Majang 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 Jin Rummy with like your grandpa. Yeah. Why would they bring it up? Um, it's like Rummy Cub, but with tiles. It's like Rummy Cub. If you were on mushrooms and cocaine. So with end what what people like is, because 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 Majang, because it's so complicated. But like now I like kind of want to be in a Majang league. It's so funny, because my assistant Josephine is always trying to play games. Yeah, like any time more, any way, 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 sheep. You also, when there's a second, you're watching your 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 brought it, like we could have played it on set. And I'm like, we're out. We're technically, like, she's like, no, I actually canceled the job. So I can start playing that unless I play with and unless I bring her. So maybe like me, you Grace and Josephine, join like some type of Mahjong league. Yeah, Mahjong. I just think like before phones, like people played 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 maybe before Gen Alpha. But I think like it's funny. The world is realizing like we got on do some stuff because we've gone too far. I think whatever our generation's kids are, they're going to be fine. I think once like the young, all the younger millennials have kids, we'll save the world. It's fine. Just added to our goddamn tab of things that we've had to deal with. Now we have to fix the whole human race. 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 sweetheart? 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. No, because I feel like I've heard that growing up my whole life from either like my uncles or my dads being like sweetheart, can you get like? Yeah, my dad never called me sweetheart. I don't know, but yeah, I guess like a man that you don't know. But also I realized 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 sweetheart. Oh, we're in 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 chief like thanks chief chief. They get chief and boss and we get sweetheart or ma'am. 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 wall. How to be 16 because it was like a ballet parking attendant and I looked and I was like, that just made me really upset. And then I ran the math in my head like yeah, he saw me and was like this old bitch as someone's mom. See, I've been passing syndrome where I think we're 27. Nah, 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 house. Yeah. So 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 in our defense, we didn't have social media. They have social media. All our famous people are still famous for that. It does 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 couldn't walk. I couldn't even put a sense 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. I never happened to. Hi, hello. How are you? And I guess some people's parents were a little more like, you got to watch these cult classics. But like, I was busy. And also it literally was every night. My dad was watching the nicks. 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 when I'm like, for example, like, Clarissa explains it all or like Sabrina, the teenage, which 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 Friday night. And it was TGIF Friday. So where were you when boy meets world was on? What were you watching? What's Clarissa? What's Clarissa? Who's Clarissa? Clarissa explains it all. What is she explaining? It was Melissa Joan Hart, who is Sabrina, the teenage, which 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 the people I'm talking about. 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 will do accountable. I haven't just tinked memory of watching it. Even Steven's like put it into my veins. Yeah, it's even Steven's. 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 Steven's came out in 2000. We were on. Wait, this is this is actually really diabolical. Hannah's in a different time zone. And last time 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 to giggle. 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 episode. I was like shooting something yesterday. And a giggle was there. And she's like, have you recorded the podcast? 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 a big deal. At night, you actually like have a second job. At night, which is like, undoing the day and like being prepared for the 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. We projects. We have to do projects to say saying. Yeah, like if I get a hankering to organize my hair closet. it. And the hair closet is right next to the bed. That's not my business. I have to do. No, but my problem is Dez falls asleep during the Met Game around 730 and then he I put him down around around eight and then obviously I have to brush my teeth sometimes I have to show or like these this is not conducive. And sometimes I'll truly be laying in bed and this may one won't 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 like 10 30 pm to like I'm gonna say 2 am. I was gonna say two. 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 day 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 that same said man I don't know time who home. I didn't know time alone. You're like if it's a different man that's all different. That's just trying out different 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 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 like anyway we're gonna keep hers 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. So anyway you guys it is going to 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!
