Giggling about rage bait, prom, and ex boyfriends

In short

The hosts chat about their chaotic morning recording routine, then trade stories about dating/rom-com anticipation, rage-baiting men (TikTok-style prompts), and messy teen memories (fifth-grade prom crush drama). They also recount a behind-the-scenes TV/film shoot where one host gets her period and has nail issues, plus a “gag” segment where straight men answer awkward questions. They finish with celebrity gossip about Zoe Kravitz’s dating life and fashion.

Guests

None. The episode is hosted by Paige and Hannah (their “Gigglers” community is referenced, but no guest appears in the transcript).

Key claims

Crown Skin scaled to $500,000+ monthly revenue using Amazon Ads; One Night Only (Aug 7) is a “summer’s biggest rom-com”; rage-bait prompts are a fun hobby; women are pressured to be overly nice in professional settings (nail/polish story); “blonde friends” don’t “count” as cheating (relationship joke).

Notable examples

Period at a shoot without a tampon; toenail/nail polish mishaps leading to makeup/nails being redone; fifth-grade prom crush stolen by best friend; Zoe Kravitz dating Harry Styles (and earlier Channing Tatum/Austin Butler rumors).

0:00Hannah Berner: Meet Amazon Ads rising star Daryl Spencer, who set out to redefine men's self-care with his brand Crown Skin. Amazon Ads helped him grow. I walked away from big tech to build a luxury brand in a category that no one was paying attention to. With the help of Amazon Ads, I'm reaching relevant audiences and competing with the biggest names in men's grooming. We've scaled to over$500 ,000 in monthly revenue. Watch Crown Skin's story at advertising.amazon.com slash rising-stars.

0:32Hannah Berner: Okay, so my plan this summer is to grab a bunch of my girlfriends, buy a big bucket of popcorn, sit back, and feel all the feels watching a movie in the theater. And you know what will fill that void? One Night Only, which is about to be the summer's biggest rom-com when it hits theaters August 7th. I can't wait. It's from the director of Anyone But You and EZA, and stars Monica Barbaro and Callum Turner. Set in New York City, the two bump into each other on the one night a year single people are allowed to have sex. This sounds so messy and I'm 100 % in. One Night Only is in theaters August 7th.

1:08Hannah Berner: I'll be there. Sup, gigglers. Gary, fix the Wi-Fi. Manifest that shit. We can't be managed.

1:21Hannah Berner: I mean, the day just got away from me. Good morning, Gigglers. Now, I know that this pod gets listened to at many different times of the day. You could be going to work. You could be coming home from work. Coming home from work. Those are the two times of the day. You murdered your husband. You were thinking of murdering your husband. So many different times of the day. But this is the morning for us, and we have to tell you that because I don't normally form a full, coherent sentence until around 5 p.m. Well, you still have, like... No. your face is asleep your voice is asleep i have marks on my face from my pillow you walked in as if like you meant to go to the bathroom to pee but you found yourself in the podcast room you're like hey guys what are you doing here so for people to all know we record the pod at my apartment so page has been up when did you wake up 6 a.m you look like you've been doing Pilates.

2:21You've planned the day for your children already. You dropped them off at school. I'm actually hair oiling right now.

2:26Hannah Berner: I'm multitasking. I was like, should I put an outfit on? I was like, you know what? No, I'm probably going to walk like toward my apartment from Hannah's going steps in in the morning. Then I have a Zoom meeting, not till one. Like I'm planning on my thing. See, I woke up at 6.30 a.m. in fear that I missed the podcast. Perfect. And then I was like, oh, my God, it's only 6.30. let me just explain she physically couldn't miss the podcast because it's in her home i mean at some point i'd come into your room and say hey we have to do the pod also no who's gonna fire me like this is some deep deep trauma i mean i know that we created giggly squad but like giggly squad is so giggly squad coded i don't know how else to explain it we've lost control it's so giggly squad quoted quoted we don't have a podcast studio we barely have a room you're moving out we have nowhere to record it's like i come all the way down to the east side like there's just so many things that are so we're like we don't care but also it's just like makes it perfect this is the chaos we need for our creative energy okay so i saw a girl on tiktok who made which i didn't even know this was a discourse among podcast listeners where she was like i'm so sick of every podcast i've ever listened to at some point go into just like an interview show where they'll have like an influencer or a celebrity and like whatever and she was like my only podcast that doesn't do interviews is giggly squad i honestly think it was the week we had the cat psychic on but anyway that wasn't an interview that was recon that was like that the fbi center like that was above us that yeah that was just law but i was i commented because i was like it actually makes me anxious thinking about bringing a third party into our chaos and being like just sit down and like be on our pod like you know it's so jarring for the normal person no also it's because we can't organize it you know how many steps involves getting someone physically.

4:35I think about that all the time. Also an hour is a long time to talk to someone that you've just met.

4:40Hannah Berner: Yeah no I if we ever interviewed people this would be like in our 60s I feel like. Are you okay? Sorry you're like burping. Also you haven't even commented that my boobs are taking over the whole room. I was gonna bring that up. It's just my eyes aren't fully open I haven't even booked it. So I haven't seen anything yet. What's going on? Honestly, I don't know. Like, I don't want to diagnose you with anything, but you do have, like, um. So many things. But, like, what is it where you're just obsessed with your boobs all the time? I don't think there's a word for that. Paige, will you walk in and be like, you haven't commented on my boobs?

5:19Well, because I've never had them.

5:21Hannah Berner: I've never had, this is the first time ever that I've had them. No, when are you, this is what I meant to ask you, though. When are you getting your period? Oh. What's your sketch? I think in like a week. Okay. So like I would be early, but like here we are. Who knows? This, I don't want to like make your head big, but I didn't get boobs till I was 18. Go, I'm 32. I could be going through like another puberty. No, I just think that my hormones like change so quickly. Well, your fingers keep growing. Your fingers keep growing. Always. My nails are so long right now. They actually do have like chicken talons.

5:56I killed the whole family yesterday. because I've been playing tennis.

6:00Hannah Berner: Wait. This brings me to my next point that I need to tell the Gigglers. So Hannah and I do like a bunch of things together. What kind of mafia sketchy shit was that? Hannah and I are always together doing things. Look, we're doing stuff on the side. So sometimes we have to arrive to a set and sometimes there's other people that are working on said set now. Although we've never been on a set before, by the way. We've been on multiple sets together. Okay, we have been on multiple sets together. Continue. And so as a former child model, I know that you show up to set with three things. Clean hair, clean nails, and overall just like clean toes or like cleanliness and some sort.

6:50Hannah Berner: Shaving legs. You just come as a specimen for them to create their canvas. Okay? So Hannah and I show up to the set where both, I actually this day came hair and makeup ready because I was at something else. So I get to the set and they're like, Hannah's in hair and makeup. And I'm like, okay. They're like, do you want to touch up? I'm like, let me just like see. So I walk in and I'm like, should I get a touch up? The hair and makeup people are like, you're perfect. You're stunning. Like maybe some hairspray. They don't even want to spray it. They're like, we don't want to ruin whatever. They're like, you're so naturally like have it going on.

7:26Hannah Berner: I'm like, you can go sit in your trailer and wait for everyone. And they look at Hannah and they're like, we're actually going to need to call our boss. Because we're unsure what to do with you. You don't even know the drama that I started before you came. No, I don't. I walk in, realize I got my period. By the way, there's so many more important people. So many. like a plethora of more important things happening my only job is to like not be a nuisance and not be heard not be seen speak when spoken to literally a child of the 90s i walk in immediately i'm like start bleeding out i'm like of course i actually you know it's funny i actually didn't have a tampon at home yeah like that was on me yeah i should i'm not like i think hannah i never have a tampon like when they show in movies where people like just go into bathrooms like oh do you have a tampon and girls like yeah yeah i'm like are you on your period you just put the there's how much room in bags the purses are page walks around and one large tampon would be sticking out also these large tampons why are they dildo sized never in the 16 years i've had a period have i ever had a tampon when i got my period that's crazy work anyway have you ever like lost your virginity because of one of those large tampons because that's the only one left no i actually think they give me utis i'm like okay and then you can't pull them out because you've corked yourself i'm like i could have been having sex with strange men but yet here i am because it was an organic cotton give me a fucking break anyway the tampon industry should be stopped so yeah yeah i asked them for a tampon and you could tell it through them like they were like they're running around and I'm just like look I don't want to bleed out so like this insurance like figure it out so I already felt bad so they got me the tampon then I realized that my tone look my toes weren't done but I tried to make it like I had it's not a big deal I well I tried to make it like um just part of my toe had toenail had like fallen off yes they were chipped i was like oh i have a chip they actually weren't even chipped your big toe was jagged because part of the nail had fallen off so it looked like it was chipped but it was actually there's no nail there and also the other nails were outgrown like the whole thing it would but i tried to be like oh my god an accident just occurred as i was putting my tampon

10:15Hannah Berner: this is all also like we're dealing with like people in their 20s that are supposed to be like dealing with us and we're like we're so sorry they're like yeah no like we actually have to ask someone because like this is we've never dealt with this level of distress before they told you they were like wear what you want

10:38Hannah Berner: okay okay So when we do things together, sometimes we'll be like, okay, let's just, like, make sure the outfits are cohesive. Like, are you guys going to get a stylist?

Actually, wait, they didn't even look. They brought their own stuff before they even looked what I brought. Yeah. But one of the things ended up fitting, which was great. And you looked bored. gorgeous so we're happy um they put me in hair and makeup they also realized that her nails

16:29Hannah Berner: on his nails and we are in fact going to paint them so we're looking for a nail polish right now these people quit the industry after this day like that was their dream they moved to new york to work in in tv film city and then they're like mom i can't do it they're like on a pod next week they're like what was your like most stressful celebrity you ever met so then i'm probably forgetting stuff because there was definitely more chaos and oh well they did my hair makeup and then we had to wait a while yeah and then they looked at me and they were like yeah we're gonna have to do that again like i guess it just melted off my oily face i did preserved i literally was like a petrified like something in harry potter i was like they did not give you one touch up the entire day they had to redo my makeup i know but i was in a trailer i know anyway we get to this like green room where like a bunch of people are hanging out and a model walks in yes her nails aren't done

17:35bear

17:36Hannah Berner: wait i didn't know you were sitting there the whole time staring at her wow look at those bare nails. I was like, no one's gonna, no one sees that. But then I, like, obviously she has, like, really long, beautiful model fingers. But, like, So what was it? Was it the discrimination against nail polish, or was it the discrimination against your short fingers? So now I'm reporting to something. Someone's getting reported. Some type of HR violation. There was an HR violation. So, and then the next day, I'm walking around, and I have to to go to somewhere important, but obviously they just put like, basically they're chipped.

18:19Hannah Berner: Wait, this was the other thing.

18:24Hannah Berner: They were like scouring for a nail polish. Oh, that matched. They were like, don't worry. Okay, we're like, we're gonna get a nail polish. They come back with this like red color. The girl's like doing it. And she's like, okay, like, should I do another coat? And Hannah's like, no. No, like, this is good enough. Like, let's be done. She was like, I really think that there needs to be another coat. This is the problem. I think I'm like super nice and polite about it. Like I'll be like, oh my God, no, it's okay. And she's looking at me. She's like, no, it's not okay. I'm like, oh my God, no, it's okay.

18:52And she's like, no, this isn't okay. Yeah. But then the next day I had -

18:55Hannah Berner: And do you want to know what? That is society on how much they've beaten women down because we have to be so fucking overly nice or we're criticized. I mean, it's the plight of being a woman. It's literally, you can't do anything. But your vocabulary is so good for this time in the morning. Thank you so much. I'm popped up.

The next day I had to shoot something also and I show up and I just have chipped red nails which look way worse than if I just had raw nails so it's just raw nails is a domino effect and this is all because I've been away from Jacqueline.

I'm seeing her actually this week. we haven't really talked about you the other day though I did say I was like should I take a break and like just do natural nails and like chill for a little and she looked at me she's like no why would you do that I was like oh check I've tried with her wait I just got PTSD of like when you're little and you have a crush on someone and your friend like talks to them for one second and you're like did he say anything about me and they're always like no One time that happened to me. And then, like, my best friend in fifth grade started dating the guy that I thought that I was dating.

20:41Hannah Berner: And, like, the whole class knew that we weren't dating anymore. And then he was dating her. And I was the last person to find out. Oh, my God. Are you okay? Yeah.

You know, I was like, you're out to get me, I think. Wait. That's where I learned I can't trust anyone. No, truly. Fifth grade, I was like. That's when I took the hood over my eyes.

It's a brand new super concentrated laundry detergent that's built differently to be Tide's best clean.

26:08Hannah Berner: What people don't know about me, in middle school, I only had eyes for blonde hair, blue eyed men. You never told us that. I know. And then once I hit eighth grade, I was like, ew. When you said I only have eyes, it's giving a Frank Sinatra movie. But you know what? Little blue eyed boys are cute. Yeah. Like, they're so sweet. and then I grew up and then you decide you want guys who can grow facial hair yeah so this guy like he's like he's I'm obsessed with him but like obviously like the other girls liked him too because he was cute and I had a friend Molly the full name I'm saying it

26:52put that on fucking people.com so there's always like things on the internet it's like I wish someone

26:59Hannah Berner: from her past would like come and say like how awful she is and i'm like how about i say how awful people are from my past actually how about i turn the tables on that one how about i start listing names who gave me this personality because of trauma okay so molly wait also i saw tic tac the other day and i actually didn't send it to you because i was like that is like so depressing it was like thank Thank you for protecting my space. It was like, if you're really funny, like, no one knows the trauma you've been through. Every time someone's like, oh, Hannah and Paige have, like, a top comedy podcast, I'm like, well, we're really sad sometimes.

27:47Hannah Berner: I think an 8 a.m. pod is exactly what we do. This is going to happen every week. You're actually crying. I can't tell if it's like happy or sad to yourself. So by the way, Molly's cute. Yeah. Like let's be honest, Molly's cute. I feel like if your name is Molly, you like have to be cute. You're fucking adorable. Like American Girl Doll. I was just going to say, you're skipping a jump from American Girl Doll. She was fucking adorable and I knew it, but she was my friend. I feel like Molly wore like bucket hats. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. I love how you speak. You speak in limited to clothes. I'm like, let me set the scene.

28:23Hannah Berner: We were in fifth grade. Molly. She's got a bucket hat with a flower on it. I had a limited two thing like sent to me like bring back limited two. And it was like 20 slides of a limited two magazine. And I couldn't find you in it. And I almost reported the post. There are some that I wasn't in. Or it was like AI. They took you out. Anyway, we'll discuss that later. But so I told her like find out if he's going to ask me. Yeah. Which was so like. Intense. Intense and feminist of me. Yeah. Is he going to ask me to be his girlfriend or what? Like, let's go. Like, I don't have time. It's fifth grade.

28:57Like, so she goes to talk to him. And then I, wait, now I'm like forgetting what happened. Yeah, it was 30 years ago. I would hope so. Wait, no, that's not what happened. That's not what happened. This is what happened. You haven't even said what happened. So we're not. No, Molly's my best friend. I didn't tell her anything. I didn't tell her anything. I'm hanging out with Justin, my other friend. But he's just like, like, guy's girl. Like, girl's guy. Like, he's a girl. He's a girl's girl. But he wasn't gay, I don't think. Maybe he was. Looking back. No, he's definitely out now. But at the time, just felt comfortable around him.

29:37Hannah Berner: Wait. When I went home last weekend, I ran into my first ever gay bestie. And we were gay besties together in third grade. I found the gays who love me. lesbians we were we love like we were already there the tennis gays and it's a different type love cause they respect me which I've never felt from a gay man before they like cause gay men love tennis and gay men are good at tennis and gay men shout out Blakely Thornton shout out I was gonna say like a really famous tennis guy that's not gay but like they love tennis but could be anyway so I'm hanging out with Justin Kicking. Kicking with Justin.

30:21And Molly is talking to my crush on the basketball court. Okay. So Brooklyn. What was his name? I can't say. Okay. I'm protecting. Not to protect a man.

30:37Okay. So she's talking to him and I said, this motherfucking bitch. She knows that I liked him since second grade. She knows the dance is coming up. What could she possibly be talking to him in between his basketball game? And I know we're not supposed to blame the woman. I know. And I know this sounds like I am. But I was paranoid. And I'm turning to – and I start shitting on my friend. I said, after all we've been through, how dare she do this to me? Look at Molly over there. And Justin is egging me on. He's like, this bitch. He's like, I never liked her. I never liked her. You've always wanted to be friends with her.

31:10You could tell she didn't want to be friends with you. She wanted to be you. Like that kind of shit. I was like –

31:14Hannah Berner: I love when one of my gays goes, you know what? never liked her. And I'm like, oh, you never said anything. And you never said anything. When you get one of my gays going, it's... Get a gay going. Get a gay going. Do one thing for your day and get a gay going. Because gag, get a gay going. Get a gay going and let them tell you what it is. No, let them break it down for you because it's... You're like, oh. It's like once they hit their fucking... No, wait, Hannah. No, no. We just created a - Got a gay going? Gagged. Gagged. Got a gay going. Wait, maybe that's the segment we just bring on a gay and let them go.

31:55Okay, and with that, we're going to have a gag come in. It's just straight guys. They don't know that we're going to get a gay like that. Time for our gag segment. What are you gagged about?

32:11Hannah Berner: Hannah we brought in a bunch of straight men saying it was like one of our segments but really it's like we don't tell them are we saying what's something you're passionate about yeah something that like really gets you going what is that um so then Molly this goddamn story Molly comes up to me after I said how dare you show your face on this playground yeah I've seen the gall I've seen what I needed to see like I saw you like we had eyes on you what the fuck were you talking to him about and she goes he wanted to ask me to ask you if you want to go to the dance with him you're like molly you you are my day one everything you are my right or fucking die you are i could i feel like i don't care what the gays are saying about you i take back every bad thing i've said about you i did report it to the school newspaper and i did spread a lot of lies about you but in the meantime you're perfect um so then I wonder if anyone's school newspaper had like like gossip sections.

33:13Wait, you didn't like go to college? Yeah. You did. But like.

33:16Hannah Berner: No, we know. I went to like 40 ,000 kids. Yeah. Oh, my God. There was a Facebook page. Yeah, I bet. It was called. Well, because Gossip Girl had just come out. And I feel like that was like the first start of. I think that like in high school, there was like a random thing, too, that we had. I forget what it was called. It was called. It was like a misconnections type thing. Yeah. So it actually was so cute and positive, but it would be like, girl. Not today. Not today. Not today. The internet was so cute before. It would be like, girl going up Bascom Hall, like wearing the pink shoes. Got it.

33:50You're really cute. And so it was kind of like usually a dating thing, but you'd like go on and you'd like go through it to see if anyone saw you. And every day you'd be like, fuck. Well, that turned into Reddit. I have to bring something up. I've been socializing this last week. One because. I've been seeing it. It's my time. Like tennis season. It's my Super Bowl. But I realize I feel like if I only hang out with blonde women, I don't feel like I'm cheating on you.

34:25Hannah Berner: Because we're so different. Because we're so different. We're categorically different. It's almost like it's eating at a different restaurant. Like, it's, like, I feel like if I found a girl who was brunette, funny, beautiful, hung out with her, you'd be, like, are you mad at me? Yeah. I'd be really pissed. But, like, I'm gravitating just towards blondes because, like, I'm already – I'm fed. I'm fed. I have all I need. But, like, if I want to dabble – You're in a committed relationship at home. Yes. But when you go out – So I feel like when I post with blondes, like, it – It doesn't count. It doesn't count.

35:01It literally doesn't count. It's literally like just for like funsies. How has – we're going to the U.S.

35:08Hannah Berner: Open tonight. Tonight together. Which seems like a million years away. It's fucking middle of the night right now. But how has it been hot? The U.S. Open? Yeah. It actually – it's so funny that that's what you – Well, I just know you and your temperature. No, it's true. I actually – so I went to this mixed doubles thing with Chelsea. Yeah. Handler. That was a dream. Yeah. What did you guys talk about all day? So she had just come back from Ibiza. So she was exhausted. So we were same level. Like we were perfect. She was like, let's have a couple honey deuces. I'll have a taste. I had half a honey deuce.

35:48And we just honestly like we talked shop. She gave me advice. We gossiped. We joked about tennis. She's so nice. But she's so fucking naturally funny.

36:00Hannah Berner: Yeah. like for how like um like direct and to the point and like crass like her humor is like snarky and like sarcastic whatever her personality like when she's talking to you I feel like couldn't be more like she's so like when she's talking to you you genuinely feel like oh she's listening and she's asking a follow-up question of like that's she was asking me questions yeah that's like my biggest thing like especially when you meet a lot of famous people like they could give oh fuck yeah anything about you she was like just leaning over asking me stuff like earnestly wanting to like learn about me and I'm I'm like trying not to sound like an idiot in front of Chelsea Handler but also the fact that she's so like just like she's not fake you know so like I like you'll always know how she's feeling she's hilarious and I think we when we started fucking with each other like making fun of each other it was such like a east coast type yeah friendship where the second she made fun of me I was like oh my that's my best friend yeah no that's so true so that was fun then so i go to the tennis hall of fame this weekend yeah which i exercise some demons but um do you know angela kinsey from the office yes blonde she is such a dream yeah so funny such a delight such a little delight tennis is kind of fun thing where like it's like a language so when everyone's together like when you're together yeah Because you all speak this language.

37:27It's really beautiful. Okay.

37:32And me and her were playing, but we played in this doubles exhibition. And she plays in women's doubles. And she was like, oh, do you actually play? And I'm like, no, this is my entire life. And she was like, okay.

37:44Hannah Berner: Wait, why don't you play like where you have sign up? What's that called? Oh, like sign up for a tournament? yeah well look or not even sign up for like a tournament like where you join like a place yeah like a league where it's like oh okay you're playing tuesday night yeah i mean honestly i could i just don't have my schedule's kind of crazy but then also i'm not gonna lie and like why don't you do more things i played really well this last weekend and i i definitely um was googling like how do you try to go back on the pro tour and quit comedy um wait i had to talk to my therapist But she was like, you're not going on the pro tour.

38:26And I was like, I can still do Giggly Squad.

38:27Hannah Berner: See, this is why I'm like a toxic friend. Because I'm like, wait a minute. What if you did go back on tour? Des wants to do a documentary about me trying to get back on tour. Hannah. Wait. Why are we not doing that? I would get you such good tennis looks, tennis outfits for your tour. I would have to be, I'd have to train. I'd have to like be in the gym early. You could get some steps in if you want to come to some workouts. I'd get yelled at by coaches. It's Hannah and Paige Try New Things season two, but it's just Hannah doing something and Paige tags along. Because that's really what I wanted the show to be.

39:03That is what the show is. The show is me forcing you to do shit. Yeah. Then me laughing at it and you being like, can we leave now?

39:10Hannah Berner: When I know I don't have to do things, like, okay. I'm trying to think of like an example. Like as a performer, do you ever go somewhere and you're like, you keep being like, oh, I'm not the one performer. Like, okay, when I went to Las Culturistas, I had to get up and give, like, one speech. But after I – and I was, like, nervous before because, like, ever doing anything. But then after, I was like, oh, I'm done. Like, I don't have to do that anyway. What was I saying this for? Because when you follow me around. Yeah, when I follow you around, I love that you have to do the, like, nervous, scary things.

39:47Hannah Berner: But I can still be there and enjoy it with you. It's kind of like English Squad Live.

39:57when Paige is having her panic attacks I literally was like Paige just sit there I got you

40:02Hannah Berner: if we have like if I allowed cameras if I allowed cameras we should have I know we should have we should have but it was because we had a guy if we had if Hobson was there it would have been a totally different experience the first night when Paige had a panic attack there was a guy and I was like and he was filling in for our normal girl that shot Hannah Paige he wasn't like true and tested yet Also, you were literally like in a corset. And also I was like, get the fuck out of here. Imagine if I was like, hey, she's sobbing and yelling. Go get the camera. Go get the camera. Get a little closer.

40:36She's like a wild animal. Get closer. Watch out. At least Grace could have gotten some BTS. Grace. Grace was terrified. No, Grace was not like, Grace was worried. Yeah, she was worried. She was like trying to find drugs. Any solace. For herself. Anyways. Wait, what were we just saying? I was talking about my blonde friends, Angela Kinsey and Chelsea Handler. Oh, yeah, yeah, yeah. But if you think about it, all my best friends are blonde. Haley Nicola. Yeah. Haley Bieber. Who else is blonde that's like a good friend of mine? Gabby. Gabby. All my good friends are blonde besides you. But it's because I respect you.

41:12Madison. Madison. Oh, you got it. Wait, do I like blondes?

41:16Hannah Berner: No, you're obsessed with blondes. I saw a thing on TikTok today and I felt so not today, the other day and they were saying like what is our generation's version of the name Karen and it's between Jessica and Stephanie and I literally almost texted my friend Stephanie and was like I'm so sorry, Jessica and Stephanie because they both hit really well Stephanie, Jessica yeah it's about them the punchiness of it. I don't know why I just thought of that, but. Something popped up on my Instagram and it's how to rage bait a man. I thought it just was perfect for our brand. Just like a fun hobby. Just like a fun like Wednesday afternoon thing that you could do.

42:06Hannah Berner: Write this down, girls. Write this down. Get out your notes. How to rage bait a man. Yeah. Say what sport would you play if you were athletic? Yeah. So good. 10 out of 10. whatever makes you feel big and strong you love this girl she's swinging her legs metaphorically I still am hung up on the old one where it's like you look like you can't swim I love that one I didn't know about that one you look like you can't swim do you know how to swim of course I know how to swim they'd be slapping you know those guys who swim Chris why are you looking like that can you swim You know those guys who slap when they try to freestyle?

42:48I'm like, ew, okay. Put your fingers together.

42:52Hannah Berner: Honestly, as someone who should have been on the swim team, but my family didn't believe in me or have a swim team, I still get annoyed about it. I don't even know how to dive because my mom was like, you'll hit your head and be paralyzed. This one is diabolical. You look like you read with your finger. I actually do. I know. Wait, I didn't. Girls are allowed to read with their finger. Also, especially when your finger is beautifully manicured. Also, if I'm ever somewhere giving a speech, like when I had to go to my high school, I had to give a speech a couple months ago and I literally reverted back to like being in school.

43:24Hannah Berner: I was like, I have to use my finger.

43:28No, there's definitely some stuff that should have been worked out at an earlier age with you. How tall do you wish you were?

43:35Hannah Berner: Oh, that is a sad one, but so true. You seem like you were homeschooled. I've dated a couple of those um do you cut your own hair one time I asked this is so bad and I genuinely I didn't even here's the thing about me sometimes I say mean things and in my head doesn't sound mean not meaning it to be mean but when it comes out and the person looks at me one time I asked a guy what grade did he start getting bullied in and I

44:14Hannah Berner: And I go, I'm so sorry. Sorry, did you get, you just seem like a person that if someone were to get bullied in the school, you would have been an easy target. And I was just wondering at what age did that start for you? Because that one's been really hard and traumatizing and I'm actually trying to be nice about it. Oh my God. It was fifth grade. It's like, yeah. When did the horrible, treacherous bullying begin? And why is it still happening now with me? The final one, this is really funny. I like your pixie cut. Oh. Yeah. Wait, that is so funny. That men just have like pixie cuts. They do. This off to college season, save on college and save the everyday.

45:03Hannah Berner: I remember when I first got to college and I thought I was prepared. I know everything that's happening. I was so focused on my daily outfits and making sure I had the perfect aesthetic that I completely forgot about one major part of college, and that's themed parties. Every other week, there was some random theme night, and I was always scrambling at the last minute trying to pull something together. Whether it was a costume, accessories, decorations, or something group theme, I somehow never had what I needed, and I was constantly making a last-minute purchase to save the day. College is already so chaotic enough, and it's always the little things that catch you off guard.

45:38Hannah Berner: That's why I love Amazon makes off to college shopping so easy. So whether it's dorm essentials, school supplies, organizational items, or those last minute things you suddenly realize you need, Amazon has great deals, everyday low prices, a huge selection, and the convenience to help you get it all in one place. So remember, with Amazon low off to college prices, just save on college, save the everyday. I was in search of the perfect vanity for my apartment. And when I mean perfect, I mean perfect for me. I wanted something that I could fit the actual seat that goes to the vanity underneath just to save space.

Why are those giant bottles so unnecessarily huge? They're awkward to carry, they leak everywhere, they take up my entire laundry shelf and honestly they're kind of ugly. Then I found out some liquid detergents are apparently like 80 % water and I was like what? That honestly explains a lot because I feel like my clothes never smell as fresh as I want them to.

47:43Hannah Berner: So when I found Tide Evo I was like wait this actually fits my life. It's compact, streamlined, and easy to use. There's no plastic bottles, no drips, no sticky caps, and no water added. It's 100 % concentrated, which is why it's built differently to be Tide's best clean.

53:36Hannah Berner: She can, like, sense it. She just comes walking into the room like nothing ever happened. She's like, Hannah, did you have a good summer? She's like, hey. And I took a photo of her because now she's standing in the room, which she wouldn't go near all summer. and I texted Mystic Mikayla and I go, what's going on with her? Or, and she goes, you're on, hold on a minute, hold on. You're on texting terms with Mystic Mikayla when things pop up in your life? It was DM, but like I'm trying to get on texting terms with her. Yeah, okay. So she goes, oh, she's very happy because she feels like she got rid of them.

We talked about this last time. Great actress. I have more notes until I finished it. oh I actually didn't even finish it really this is the thing I didn't realize it's a murder mystery which is you know my thing I got really into it but it got to the point with the lesbian stuff where it was like let's stay focused on the plot because like in the beginning it was like ooh and then like by episode five I'm like why are they making out do you even care who murdered this person I'm like there'd be no reason for a hookup scene like we'd be actually so close to getting to the murderer and then suddenly they're like trying to figure each other and I'm like this doesn't make any fucking sense.

55:55It feels like you guys don't actually care. It's like you don't care about a woman who's died. A girl who died.

56:01Hannah Berner: Well do you want to know what I like about the lesbian stuff? Which like don't clip that you know like that could be really I would get canceled. What I like about the lesbian stuff though seriously is I feel like there's a lot of like gay male and male representation like on TV. Other than like HBO or like Showtime where it's like taboo, like they're in a gay couple where like it was never like on like mainstream TV. Yeah. I feel like this being like a top Netflix show. It's amazing. For weeks and it's like lesbians and it's like I just feel like there's not that many shows like that. All they had was the L word.

56:42Hannah Berner: I was just going to say. Which was iconic. and like should have also it's like i was too young when that was on like i don't remember that well the l word they had like scripted and unscripted like they had like a reality show of the l word too oh i didn't know that it was really good um but anyway i i really really liked hunting wives yeah um you want a season two i feel like there has to be because it kind to end it on a cliff i don't know but i'm sick of like okay cool yeah everyone loves this show great you'll have season two in four years like i need hollywood to get it together like i need you want them to film it on iphone figure it out like the writers are no longer on strike yeah get to work and film the next season why is nobody working no why is nobody working gang.

57:34Hannah Berner: Netflix is like building a big studio in New Jersey. And I'm like, that's what we need. We need some fucking Jersey men in the union being like, let's get this fucking shoe going. Like, that's what I need. I need get the trucks. Like I need a Northeastern people. That kind of we can't have this Hollywood, you know, tanning, drinking, eating acai. Yeah. Do you drink or eat at Asable? Everyone has to take a break for two hours. No, we don't do breaks. No, we don't do breaks. Oh, my God. Did you see the Jussie Smollett documentary? Okay, I didn't see the documentary, but I saw the preview. Wait. I watched The Biggest Loser documentary.

58:17Oh, wait.

58:17Hannah Berner: Oh, my God. You're up on your documentaries. I'm getting more and more into documentaries because you're right. I actually can't stomach reality TV. No. I can't watch it. No. It's so sad because it was such a big part of my life for so many years. And I thought like, oh, maybe I'll be able to get back into it. I physically can't. You guys, I haven't watched a minute of reality TV. I'm just like, that's not real. I can't. So I've been starting to try and watch more documentaries. Documentaries. And I'm telling you, it's even – and yeah, there's still biased documentaries. Yeah. But at least it's like the drama is real.

58:52The drama is so much better. The drama is so much better. And it's organized.

58:56Hannah Berner: and everyone's sitting there's a system it's not stressful but to be honest i didn't follow it that closely because it was confusing from the beginning yeah like i they lost me early on i was very confused but they basically were saying that he lied about a hate crime and they were treating it like he murdered someone like the police was like this horrible like they really went hard on him and i think it's because it's again like the police is like reality tv where like they have to they're trying to get a good narrative is he trying what is this on netflix and it's his he i think is involved like he's getting interviewed but so is the policeman and so and he's trying to say like i didn't lie yeah and the police are on there going like he lied And didn't the people that he hired to like allegedly like, what is the word?

59:52Like assault him. Jump him.

59:53Hannah Berner: Yeah. Didn't they say like, no, he hired us? Yes. But then you go into it and it's these like two brothers who at the end, they're like promoting a book and like saying all this stuff. Get your bag. Get your bag. But then there's a clip where it doesn't look like them. And everyone's asked like, is that a white guy or a black guy? And everyone like has different answers. because Jussie's saying it was white guys who assaulted him. But then the brothers are black. It's very confusing. How many parts is it? It's just one, like an hour 45. It's really good because it has both sides. I hate when a documentary is just one person's side being like popcorn.

1:00:33But it's literally him. He gives me a weird aura, though. He does. But you also, I feel like, can't judge someone going through that in their life. like, he's going through a really fucked up time. That he created, though. But they think, but he's saying he didn't lie. Interesting. I mean, like, once you watch it, I'm interested in what you think. I'm going to watch it. But also the police, they have a lot of pressure to, like, look good in the eyes of the public.

1:01:05Hannah Berner: Yeah. So, like, them being, like, we got this famous guy, caught him lying. How dare he? Also, there could be homophobia involved. there's just a lot of things going on he's gay yeah oh i didn't know that yeah maybe that was the vibe you were getting usually that is when there's like a straight man trying to say that he's not gay no he's your aura's off he's fully out oh good for him you're like he am i

1:01:36he's perfect he is perfect oh man um finally do you know what i've brought back whack-a-doodle time

1:01:46Hannah Berner: whack-a-doodle time what is that originally from?
