Giggling about scandals, second holes, and splenda

The podcast features a lively, self-deprecating conversation blending personal anecdotes, humor, and reflections on life at age 35. The host shares their journey of style evolution, from wearing vintage clothing to embracing health habits like hot lemon water with artificial sugar, while jokingly addressing physical and emotional boundaries—such as not having a second hole in their ear. A central theme is authenticity, illustrated through a humorous take on Kelly Clarkson’s incognito Brooklyn shopping trip, where social dynamics and personal identity clash. The discussion expands into critiques of modern media, such as scheduled streaming and intrusive ads, and explores reality TV, particularly *Team Moms*, to highlight the intensity of parenting and the pressure of elite sports training. Personal moments of vulnerability emerge, including failed vacation plans and the emotional weight of family obligations, like a digital gift card mishap involving a family member. The host also celebrates creative projects, like designing a functional snuggie for their grandmother, symbolizing care and connection. Ultimately, the episode balances humor with heartfelt observations on family, identity, and the importance of personal boundaries in both relationships and daily life.

i just realized that i could have been being so much cuter and healthier with my life but instead i'm just like i'll throw a splenda on it but i think you're at the age no i think we are at the age i think 35 is one of the first times in your life where you actually are serious about health like i've said it years before like no i'm gonna take control i'm gonna like eat more healthier yeah but 35 really because things actually could start shutting down i do have masseter massacre has changed me forever where i had a doctor's appointment recently yeah and they were like we're gonna give you this medication there's a one percent chance normally i start hearing want want i don't care what they're saying won't happen to me no i puckered up i was like what could possibly happen because they were like your insides could flip over and be on your outsides or whatever and i i started planning for that i was like can i handle that right now and i was like that's a really intense side effect and i was like i'm gonna take control and they're like it happens to one percent of people and i said baby i'm your one percent i am the one percent like i'm so lucky in this lifetime let me tell you i've never listened because i'm not like i don't get allergic to things like yeah i clock out when people start saying some people this could happen to yeah that's not me baby yeah i'm built like a horse no allergies no i don't think i do either i do think though sometimes knock on wood later in life things can emerge so that's why we're keeping our eyes and ears open for things like this and

you see the kelly clarkson stuff i love it more in person because you point at me i am so excited to talk about the kelly clarkson stuff i'm giddy by the way we are beyond kelly clarkson fans of the pod i did her show the most pleasant sweetest also let's remember that kelly clarkson came from nothing she's the american idol and then american idled i i couldn't name you one other person that's one american i was gonna say justin baldoni but that's not him justin gorofsky no justin belt justin i have no idea justin guerlini justin tortellini one after her oh the guy she competed against yes yes and there's a guy named ruben and clay aiken remember when there was like an before ai but it was like an ai conspiracy that reuben died then like i feel like there were like videos did you watch it with your family like was it i think we did watch the first season together because it was like the whole country was but i don't remember watching later seasons i think we watched the first couple seasons together because my mom's a singer so yeah it's fun it's like me watching dancing with the stars with haley like i don't know what's going on but then she'll be like oh her heel toe is off and my mom would be like like i'd be enjoying something she might be like i look at her i'm like is that on pitch and she's like no unfortunately no unfortunately she won't be going to say my mom knows when it's on or off pitch who was going to hollywood before they said yes and i like loved watching her be like no okay so the kelly clarkson drama which i love a scandal at a store so on a saturday or something she lives in tribeca she was like i'm gonna drive to brooklyn to go to the store yeah to get this bird that i like well i don't even know if she went for the bird okay maybe she just saw the store yeah i think she just wanted to go to a store it's like cute and cool and whatever and like if that's how i i want to spend my sunday going to brooklyn and shopping at a random tchotchke store of things i don't need i want to put a t-shirt on and a baseball hat it's giving whimsy from kelly clarkton it's just giving like oh my god she's having a day by the way no one calls her kelly what do you have to say kelly clarkson so she gets there they released did you see the video they released of her in the store but there's no audio so you can like you kind of can tell what's going on but can't hear what they're saying but at the very end you see her like stop in the doorway and say something to the store but when she walked in the guy was trying to be like she was mad people weren't treating her like kelly clarkson she clearly was incognito she did not want people to know she was kelly clarkson she's in like a backpack which is very me coded yeah and i had a backpack today and you never know what you have putting in it i don't know things could happen okay here's the thing it'd be normal one shoulder it'd be normal if you had just about it actually no it wouldn't because again you're 35 this episode is about you being 35 so i don't know where the fuck you're going with the backpack but you also have a purse i have purse like are you getting on a train after this like where are you going so i didn't have time to do my makeup so i brought my makeup in my backpack and i wasn't gonna like just bring my makeup i didn't have time to do mine either because we had to do a stupid work zoom which you didn't even know about i know i hate when that happens because i'm like oh my god you guys just ruined my day i was gonna like blow my hair out i do have to shout out girls got to eat because their take came up on my feed and they were like kelly clarkson yeah and they were like has kelly clarkson not been shopping recently in brooklyn because that's how people treat you when you go shopping at a boutique store in brooklyn like everyone's rude you walk in and they're like ill get the fuck out of here and then you're like hey and they're like i hate you yeah i would rather that than walking into a store when you know you don't know you like you don't know if you want to buy anything but you just want to peruse and they're like what's your social security number what do you want and let me ask you a trillion things because like got into my head this is my job and i have to do it and i'm like you don't want to talk to me i don't want to talk to you why are we talking if i'm kelly clarkson though i think i'm doing the same thing i'm like i'll burn the whole place down well the way the man was standing did you notice in the video i didn't he's standing and he takes his leg and he crosses it over the other leg and he's like leaning on the side and he's holding a mug oh he's holding a coffee mug so just envision this yeah and he's telling her so sorry that's not for sale while in that position but it had a price tag on it price tag on it but he is was basically i guess he didn't explain it to her but he was basically like we don't want to sell this to her yeah she took it as you think i can't afford it he was like let me show you something else so it was a miscommunication but he was was it though because if he didn't want to sell it why was it sitting there with a price tag on it i think because technically it's something that was for sale at the store but it's become like a mainstay of the store they do these music shows and they use it and i think he did not want to sell it what is it everyone's like i hate gay halloween how are you the wooden bird that that everyone's fighting over um i think it did not sell it i think it did not sell it i think it did not sell it they're calling it like aerodynamic or something there's like a fancy word for something it does but it's nothing anyone needs i love kelly clarkson but i just realized that like we're so different because like where is she putting this bird it was more like the interaction and the tone of how we speak to each other but like people don't understand as someone born and bred in brooklyn new york and has seen the neighborhood change yeah to have a store in brooklyn new york that is just tchotchkes that people don't need this is the wealthiest of the wealthiest totally know what's crazy if a girl not girl a woman owned this store i think the story would be very different it would play out very differently oh if a girl owned the store it'd be burned down by now yeah but they did say that we are in danger the story said they're in danger of closing no oh just in danger yeah right they just got so much great pr it's just they said that like there's a lot of kelly clarkson fans that are like threatening them and stuff so i do think when she's leaving the store she said something like i don't know what to do i don't know what to do i don't know i don't know what to do i don't know what to do i don't know what to do i don't know what to do the the cashier yeah because in my head if i was the cashier i'd be like wait i wasn't involved yeah i'd be like take it i don't give a fuck about this place i don't i'm i'm getting paid hourly here yeah i actually can i come with you can you buy me kelly clarkson can you take me home but the thing with kelly is that she's never had a scandal like this besides her divorce never had a scandal which i don't know i don't even like that's just a it's a tuesday speaking of divorce i started watching this new sienna miller show so did i war you guys war on hbo it is so good also sienna miller it's so good i can't keep my eyes off her we have streaming for a reason give me the whole fucking season or go to a main network i don't think you should be allowed to be streaming and it be weekly episodes no no it's really annoying i i hate that can you believe that we used to just like they just put commercials in between dialogue no now when like a commercial comes up on your streaming you're like you apologize to people you're like i'm so sorry the way my bank account is set up like you're like i'm getting spammed right now you're like i have student debt and like i don't like you just start apologizing because it's so jarring you're like we're watching amazon what the fuck is this 15 second ad i think i was with you lois and we were watching toy story and an ad came on and i was like lois i'm so sorry this is not the treatment that i wanted you deserve never usually happens i must be i must have switched out of my house like what the fuck is this i'm trying to watch woody it's like you just brought up the pandora app people are like immediately like you're you have leprosy i started watching another new show that's a reality show called team moms it's about a specialized middle school that all these boys go to in arizona okay to become like professional baseball players they do school like two hours a week breeding or two hours a day yeah breeding real scary kids but it's all about the mom boy moms yes what are they fighting about hannah it's some of the best television i've ever watched in my life i should have known my lord and savior kimberly noel kardashian is the producer of it i don't know if she came up with the idea or she's just like a producer on it these women are so good there's two families i can't even think i don't even know like their names but your fingers are so long it just hit my phone across the table i made my nails on today they're actually so disgusting there's two families that fight on who's more italian oh you are locked in i'm locked in one of the moms is a pilates instructor she goes to the boys school in these insane pilates workouts and like teaches the kids i'm like this show is teaches the kids pilates yes like 14 year old boys and her body's like insane if i'm a mom i'm like no you're not walking into my son at 14 years old with your tits out like that's you sound like shane gillis right now well wait do i because in my head my kids at school and this mom is coming in in a crop top and leggings to teach him pilates looking like a whore no i think it's inappropriate on the mom's part like but like i thought it was so weird i'm like why i go in a sweatshirt go in a hoodie sweatshirt why is she teaching boys pilates at 14 i don't know it's part of like because they really think like all their kids are like the best baseball it's like truly to just try and help them be so good at baseball and whatever which i'm sure i they don't they rarely do it but they're like they're like they're like they're like they're even talk about you want to know what's nice about it the kids are rarely really in it it's not really about them like maybe they have some tropes of like you got to do better in school and like stop them talking to their sons but it's not like any of their drama yeah this is great because sports parents are next level terrifying and it's not even i'm saying like it's not your fault like something comes over you the second you think your kid has like a little bit of a chance to like be good even if mine don't i'm gonna be insane genie sent me a video of lois playing soccer yeah little kids playing soccer is the funniest thing ever because they're all just running after the ball but lois realized like if she pushes and shoves a little like she'll always get the ball so lois is just demolishing like literally the end of mean girls like other four-year-olds like boys and she's literally stiff arming boys and she just keeps like she's really good and then i like something came over me for a second where i was like oh i think she has potential like i was like about to be like you literally became your dad i was like we have to get her in like some training and like we so then i was like how do you feel about her playing with six-year-olds but she doesn't like the outfit which is why i think it might not be a long-term thing for her but seeing lois being better than other kids in soccer i became a monster totally and i was like she's gonna be successful in life because she's chasing the ball aggressively the way the women talk to their sons, it's just like one family changed their last name. and they, like, think they're lying about, like, the house they live in. It's just – Yeah, that's good. It's so good. That's good. It's so good. That's really nice. It's really nice to fall asleep. I love that you found that for you. Oh, my God. I'm like, this is so crazy. And also, there's something about Arizona where I'm like, not enough reality TV shows with you guys. For sure. I feel like Arizona is, like, a real crazy, crazy state. It's because it's too hot to really function. Yeah. Like, you know, the whole – pretty much every month except for, like, December, January is, like, unlivable because it's so hot. The first time I ever went to Arizona, I truly – like, I didn't realize they legit don't have grass. Yeah, and, like, there's real cacti. I was like, no one has a front yard. Like, it's just rocks. No, it's cacti and, like, little reptiles. I love the backdrop of Arizona, and then they have, like, beautiful mountains. Yeah. I always say the cacti is the fuckboy of plants. Yeah. Because it's tall and it's, like, ooh. It's, like, yeah, it's me. And then if you touch it, you're, like – It's flexing. I'm immediately hurt. Yeah. Yeah, it's – it thinks it's better than the other plants. Totally. And it, like, holds water and it doesn't give you any. It's, like, I'm thirsty too. Narcissistic behaviors from the plants. How did we get here? I am possibly going to go on a trip. Now, let me just say, I plan a lot of trips. A lot. Hannah plans at least two trips a year. I would say. And it really – it's not good for my marriage because I'll be, like, let's go to Japan. Yeah. And he's, like, if you're down, I'm down. Yeah. And we, like, start planning it, and then something always comes up. Usually 48 hours before. And you've experienced this too. Of course. We've let down our families, our friends. Yeah. Okay, once Des got an ACL problem, and the doctor was, like, you shouldn't be on a 20-hour flight. Yeah. And it was his fault, and I tried to remind him of that. Yeah. But we're now trying to next week, because Des has shows in Singapore and Hong Kong. Yeah. We're trying to, in nine days, do Singapore, Vietnam, Hong Kong. It's a 12-hour time difference. Mm-hmm. I don't know how we're going to figure out the pod. That's, like, once it gets double digits – What are the chances you go? In my heart of hearts? Yeah, give it to us straight. Like, we won't say anything to Des. Like, we – honestly, we can even cut this part out. What is your true, true feeling on the percentage that you're going? Every night, I have been putting together a pretend itinerary for the person I want to be when I'm there. And I'm like, yeah, we're going to that vintage shop. Yeah, we're going to the restaurant. I was just going to say, you've looked up vintage shop. I've booked every restaurant, cat cafes. You've done reservations for things. I've booked the reservations. Are you serious? Because if I can't go, at least let me have fun pretending. I think there's a 60% chance we go. I'm playing pretend. When I tell you guys, I can't tell you the last time I went on, like, a – True vacation. A vacation? No, Hannah, you don't vacation. Or a trip, like, just for culture. No, you don't. For the culture. I would say the last time you went on a true vacation for the culture and the cuisine was four years ago. That time you went to – you went to Ireland for, like, a week. We just went to Dez's. That wasn't vacation. I went to Dez's. Okay, sorry. I don't know why you're mad at me. I didn't make you cancel your goddamn trips. I go to Italy every summer. I say, hey. You said, come with me. You said, no, I have to get Botox, film a show, and not move my mouth because I like a challenge. That was the craziest move of all time this summer. Like, I really – I don't think people realize when Hannah's show comes out, we're so excited for her. But just know that I told her to quit every single day. I go, don't even show up. You're going to get fired. Paige was the one person. My team was like, we'll figure it out. My mom was like, it's going to be okay. My Dez is like, it's not going to last forever. Paige was like, get out. She was like, do not. Do this show. She's like, you can't move your face. Get the fuck out. No, because you want to know why? I got nervous that, like, oh, my God, what if this show is, like, not that good, but it's – but people only watch to make fun of Hannah, and then, like, that's going to live on forever. Wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait, wait. I have to – that happened to me already. The show is not that good, and people just watch to make fun of me? It's literally happened, babe. I'm not scared of any of that. That's just my – that's a day in my life, baby. You're like, that's my persona on TV. Also, like, I do think it's going to be entertaining, but I'm scared. No, I think it's going to be fine now, and I was being anxious about it. But I do need that person in my life to remind me that, like, you don't have to do everything you signed up for. I was nervous it was going to be one of those situations where you're like – and I actually – I actually didn't even have to do this. They needed me as a host, and now I'm fucking up my career. You got afraid that – yeah, I was going to hurt myself because I thought I needed to do this. Yes. But it is good to have a friend that's like, quit. Like, just quit. Like, what are you – who – why are you being a hero? And that is the truth. You are the first person to be like, babe. Don't do it. Give up. I'm like, don't answer the phone when he got – like, don't even – And it's so good for my mental health. But no, the team – Stuff like that, like, I truly don't – of course, people get, like, stuck in situations that are scary and, like, different, whatever. And their face could get stuck. Yeah. I truly don't feel like you can stick – I can get stuck in any situation. Like, I'm leaving. Yeah. I'm going home. I'm not answering my phone. It's like, you've never met me. There are people in my life that truly could have gone to the police and been like, I think she's missing. It's like, no, she actually just blocked you on everything. You have no idea where she is. She's never going to return. I have people texting. They've been texting me for years. Like, maybe you'll – no. I'll never respond to you. Speaking of, I have to do a shout-out to Italian-American comedian Carly Aquilino. Yes. Did you see what I posted from her today? No, what was it? She has this video that goes viral, I think, every year of her texting her parents about technology. Yeah. So she texts her dad being like, hey, I'm sending you an online – A digital gift card. A digital gift card. And she goes, then chaos ensued. Yeah. So he responds something like – I'm going to fuck it up. But he's like, okay, thank you for sending me the – and he put in quotations – digital gift card. And he's like, hopefully it's here by the time you get here and we can print it out. Yeah. And she goes, one more time. That's the thing. It's digital. You don't have to print it out. You'll get it immediately. And then she goes, then my mom jumps in on the group chat who gets scammed like five times a year. Yeah. And she goes, I'm afraid. And she goes, I don't feel good about this. Then the dad goes, to protect her, goes, don't worry, we'll block you. So you don't have to be a part of this. And then Carly, I think, said something like, you guys, you're overreacting. He goes, we're not overreacting. You're causing chaos. And I sent it to my nana. Yeah. Because my nana told me, like, I want to get her a gift. I want to get her tops. Yeah. And I said, but can you send me the – Can you send me the tops that you want, like, from Amazon? Yeah. Anything. Just send me what you want. I'll get it for you. She cannot, for the life of her, figure out how to, like, copy a link and send it. So then I'm like, find something online on your phone. Tell Papa to take a photo with his phone. Yeah. Send it to – they can't figure that out. This has been three weeks of me trying to figure out – Yeah. She's trying to, like, tell me over the phone. It's chaos. That – yeah. It's just not – But she knows how to listen to the podcast. Shout out, nana. I need to send nana some Daphne. You have to. I think you should do a photo shoot with nana and Daphne. Wait. I should. Yeah. She's been waiting. Why? Because I don't have a grandma? No. I need to do something with nana. I need to figure out, like, what she's right for. Actually, speaking of Daphne, did you see my infomercial? With the, like – it looked like you were in the cold. The technology was incredible. The acting. We just used, like, a lo-fi camera. But I was, like – when we started Daphne, I was, like, okay, number one thing that I must make at some point is a snuggie. Like, a redo of a snuggie. We don't make blankets or anything like that yet. So, I was, like, let's do it in a towel version. Because, you know, when you get out of the towel and you're, like, I'm going to lay on my bed. But your towel is never big enough. You're always cold. Your robe is never, like, plush enough. And then you're, like, do I get under the covers? And then it's, like – no, then you're gone. Like, then it's over. It's your day. Also, the second I put that robe on, I'm not doing anything. We deserve it. We designed, like, a regular robe. Like, you can wear it like a regular robe. And then there's the tie. And it's open in the front. But it's so oversized that if you flip it around and put your arms through. And then we did the pockets so that, like, either way you wear it, like, the pockets are right there. You can fit your cat in it. You can literally fit your cat in it.
