Giggling about what happened in Fiji, love island, and first kisses

In short

Page and Hannah recap Page’s trip to Fiji to host a Love Island challenge, including last-minute outfit chaos, anxiety, and a medical scare (vomiting, fainting/near-fainting, blood pressure checks) during filming. They also discuss dating/first kisses, internet trends (La Boo Boo plush/toy lore), and parenting boundaries with toddlers. Between segments they mention vacation/Italy packing stress and general “reset” themes.

Guests

Page (host/participant in Fiji Love Island; born in Albany, New York; Love Island UK/Australia superfan; describes using beta blockers for anxiety; re-wears outfits and worries about online backlash). Hannah (co-host of the podcast; discusses first-kiss anxiety, Gen Z dating advice via her cousin, and toddler experiences).

Key claims

Page says she was “overprepared” with Love Island dresses, then was unexpectedly asked for a lumberjack-themed outfit; she threw up on set and later couldn’t finish, but production reassured her it would be edited. She claims being off the show felt less pressured than being on it. She argues online backlash toward 14-year-old Vogue interns is normalized by algorithms.

Notable examples

Suede lumberjack outfit; fainting/throwing up during filming; mom texting at 1:30am NY time; La Boo Boo “monsters”/blind-box origin; toddler asking for a knife and sharks-in-the-pool incident.

1:09Hannah Berner: This episode is brought to you by Rothy's. I'm currently obsessed with my Rothy's clogs. I've been seeing them everywhere lately. Friends, celebs, airports. I got a pair a couple years ago and honestly I wear them in every airport all the time. They're luxe, stylish, and so comfortable. They've sold out more than 10 times and once you slip them on you'll get it. They're unbelievably soft, they go with everything, they're machine washable, and they somehow make wearing sweats look intentional. They really are that good. Snag a pair at rothys.com. You'll never take them off. That's rothys.com.

2:44Hannah Berner: now well there was like okay see some ruse i'm also like i like by myself like i didn't like travel with anyone like obviously like production is here but like I'm kind of like by myself so like then one day I like got up and I like I walked to like the coffee shop and I like got a coffee and I was like what am I gonna do with myself today and I literally just sat on the beach like by myself and I was like you know what I needed this like I truly needed did you solve anything you figure anything out on that beach i didn't solve anything but um no i did have a moment where i was like oh my god if something like happened i'm i live here now like this is

3:32Paige DeSorbo: where i live i'm surprised kim de sorbo let you go 16 hours to fiji without i know like i was

3:40Hannah Berner: thinking like okay when covid happened like people were traveling people were like doing different stuff and i had this panic where i was like oh my god imagine if like another covid broke

3:51Paige DeSorbo: out and like i was just here ladies and gentlemen that is what anxiety looks like in real time that's called catastrophizing and i learned that from my therapist a couple years ago and i'm like what if i die in fiji um okay there is so much there's so much we have to go over

4:10Hannah Berner: And every single thing I've seen online, I'm like, oh my God.

4:15Paige DeSorbo: For people who don't know, she's in Fiji doing Love Island.

4:20Hannah Berner: Yeah. And you hosted. Just so many different things are Giggly Squad coded. I hosted one of their challenges on one of the episodes. So let me just start from the very beginning. She was born in Albany, New York. Literally. I got introduced to Love Island UK. Okay, no. Let me just start from the beginning. Okay, so I get a call probably like a month ago. Hey, Paige, we'd love for you to come out to Fiji. They could have been like, you're literally going to like wipe Ariana's ass. I'd be like, cool, I'll be there. I can't wait. What's my call time? So they're like, we don't really know what you're going to be doing yet, but here are roughly the dates that we would fly you out.

5:06Hannah Berner: And so I'm like, great. I'll start looking for outfits. So all month I'm like, is this Love Island? Is that Love Island? Does this scream Love Island? I have so many people around me that are like, I've never seen Love Island. But from just hearing you call things Love Island or not Love Island, I feel like I know the vibe.

5:25Paige DeSorbo: That's like me when I was like, I need to be Olivia Rodrigo. This is not the vibe. Yes. I do think though, you love Love Island so much. I think you overthought it.

5:35Hannah Berner: I was overthinking it so then I do a fitting and I'm like I hate everything I'm like no and I'm leaving in like a couple days okay I'm like I need so many more options I'm ordering everything I'm

Only two I left in New York at like 6 p.m. I land in L.A. It's like 9, but it's really like midnight hour time. I am in LAX. First of all, I flew American, which I never fly American. Not a single person helped me get to the next terminal. Like I didn't know where the Fiji takeoff things were.

11:09Paige DeSorbo: We're calling people out on the pod today.

11:10Hannah Berner: No, I literally asked about seven people that worked for American and they all gave me different answers and i actually at one point started laughing and i go

12:53Hannah Berner: they're like and this is what you'll do and then the islanders and all of this and blah blah blah And so I'm not nervous, like panic attack nervous, but obviously like I'm about to host Love Island. Like I'm a little nervous, but I'm excited.

13:06Paige DeSorbo: Also, can I preface it by saying like you love Love Island. We watch Love Island. Like this, you manifested. Can we give some respect where respect is due? You manifested this. Like you're literally watching it on TV one second. The next day you're in Fiji about to look all the couples in the eye. No, it's a dream come true.

13:25Hannah Berner: a dream come true so like how are you handling that emotionally i'm not i'm do you process anything no so i pop a beta blocker in the morning because just

13:48Paige DeSorbo: wait i took a beta blocker today by the way you did good

13:53Hannah Berner: so i pop like a normal one beta blocker 10 milligram nothing freaking crazy i'm done with i'm done with hair and makeup and i go i go to someone and i'm like oh do you know what the other thing is that i have to film this week and they're like no this is it and i look at them and i go no no this isn't the outfit i go this isn't the outfit that i picked for like what I'm doing in the house and they're like yeah yeah this is what you're doing in the house like it's you're hosting the thing and I'm like so I'm like oh okay but in my head I'm spiraling because I'm like this isn't the outfit that I wanted to be on love island on and in my head I'm like I've already worn this before I'm gonna get fucking torn apart online they're gonna say Lizzie McGuire you're a fucking outfit repeater which they did literally were all over my Instagram being like I think she wore that before and now all of a sudden no one's sustainable whatever happened It's a sustainable fashion.

14:53Hannah Berner: I re-wear one outfit, and I'm immediately about to get stoned. Mind you, it was an expensive fucking outfit. Like, I should. Anyway, so I'm up there spiraling. A lot of fabric. A lot of fabric. So I'm up there spiraling, and I'm like, oh, my God, this is the outfit. Like, okay. I thought it was Lumberjack slash Love Island. I was like, how much better could I get? Yes. so now look like obviously i've filmed we've filmed things before we filmed reality tv we know how productions work we know how like set works whatever as someone that's like watching it on tv everything is so much faster obviously when you're watching it on tv like even filming a commercial you're like how do they film movies because this has taken years it could take six hours to do 30 seconds it's insane so it's a long filming day and we started pretty early and so and and mind you i i've just landed like i i'm not even i'm like not even a full 24 hours that like i'm there so like in no situation am i like acclimated no i'm fine like i'm not gonna say that i'm not gonna like be a diva like i'm doing the job you weren't like hey can i get seven hours of sleep right now yeah so I'm like I'm there I'm doing it I go out I do my entrance I'm like oh I'm not nervous at all like thank fucking god I'm like born for this I'm cool I'm good like don't need a beta blocker because I was like should I take two beta blockers and then I was like no there's gonna be a lot of sun like I don't want it to like be too much I'm just gonna take one after I do my entrance I'm like I'm not nervous at all I can host this is so easy the sun starts beating down on me pretty aggressively and I'd say we're about oh I don't know maybe like two hours into filming and I'm like just standing out there and I'm standing and I'm standing there and I'm in a full suede skirt now mind you obviously we're taking breaks we're taking water breaks they're coming over to me with like an umbrella they're shielding me from the sun they're having like ice packs all of this stuff and I'm I'm so I have a high pain tolerance I will also say that.

17:06Hannah Berner: So like if I'm uncomfortable, I'm really waiting until the very last second to tell you. Yes. Because I don't want to be a problem. I don't want to be bothersome. Also, let me just say you weren't just wearing a suede skirt. You were wearing a suede turtleneck skirt. Turtleneck. Which had a microphone pack in the back of my neck. Okay. I also had the most insane hair. I was wearing a hat.

17:29Paige DeSorbo: The hair extensions are so heavy on your head. It's basically like you're wearing a helmet.

17:35Hannah Berner: So I'm about an hour and a half, two hours into filming. And I'm like, you know what, guys? Real quick. Feeling a bit queasy. Let me take a minute to myself. I throw up. Everyone's like. Wait, where did you throw up? In the bathroom? No, yeah, I went into like the bathroom. I thought you were like, excuse me one second.

18:01Hannah Berner: And that's showbiz, baby. no like we take like a proper break and i'm like guys i'm just like feeling like not not myself whatever they're like are you okay and i'm like yeah like totally put me back in coach like i can do this i just had to get that out of my system it's something i do a little bug it was from the nothing to be alarmed like i'm good so at this point i had gotten through how many people had to go eight people had to go out of out of no eight people had to go total okay when i threw up I was halfway there. I had finished four people. And I'm like, I can do the next half. This is fine.

18:38Hannah Berner: This is all it was. I just had to throw up like I'm good. I get back out there. I get through two more people. And I'm swaying a little bit. You know, I'm like, you know, I'm not feeling totally normal. But again, I'm not stopping the show that so graciously has asked me to come on.

18:58Paige DeSorbo: You start looking around to be like looking at people to see if you're okay. like you're like is anyone else i start looking at the medic i'm like why don't you make eye

19:07Hannah Berner: contact with me and you tell me if i'm okay and if that's normal um what i'm doing and so then finally i have like a i have like an ear piecing so someone can hear me talking and i and i literally just go i'm gonna need another minute again i go into the cabin in in which they're like they're literally is the whole game I literally sit down pass out and and they're like okay we're gonna take your blood pressure we're gonna like we're gonna stop for a minute they bring me back into the room and I'm like guys I'm so sorry but like I just don't think I can finish it like we had two people left and I was I felt it took everything in me to also say that because again i'm like by myself so i have to like advocate for myself well you're like

31:11Paige DeSorbo: true also you know you need a pre-vacation for your vacation it's hard to just go right into it but yeah full family vacation that's a reality show because it's not like i get to sleep in on

31:24Hannah Berner: a family vacation because my dad will literally have my head that's illegal though he has an itinerary calm down gary yeah so like i have to be up at a like and he wants to do all the things and like do like i'll do all the yapping and all that so i have to be more alert on my family vacation like right now i'm kind of like you could do nothing i'm doing nothing the best is when

31:45Paige DeSorbo: you're in a beautiful place like when i was on tour i finally got to miami and des was like are you at the pool are you like walking around and i'm like i haven't left my hotel room once because i finally have a second and i know i'm in beautiful miami but i'm so no there was like

32:01Hannah Berner: 48 hours where i only talked to any the only person i talked to worked here like i hadn't

32:06Paige DeSorbo: seen anyone sometimes the first time i speak is when i get on stage that night i'm like work

32:15Hannah Berner: i'm like doing the same thing every single day but i don't really have anyone to talk to because i'm so ahead and you're like on a show but you're not yeah and i couldn't tell anyone i was here obviously oh yeah that was that's crazy we hate secrets we're so bad at secrets no i wanted to

32:32Paige DeSorbo: tell the gigglers so freaking bad i also got really confused about the time because i knew you'd filmed it and then i was like when is it gonna drop and i like really confused myself and i kept well my mom said the same thing she was like well we'll see this next year because she's

32:46Hannah Berner: so used to like summer house i'm like mom it comes out in two days because i'm like everyone's gonna say my outfit sucked and then i rewore it and she's like page you have a whole year don't worry about it i was like it comes out in two days it's actually better because if it was that you'd be

33:01Paige DeSorbo: worrying about it for two years um is there anything different about physically being there than what you thought it would be at love island well they let me go through the whole house because

33:13Hannah Berner: i was like they they they were like well like do you watch the show like and i was like guys i'm like og i've watched all of australia i've watched all of uk like i like i know them all and so they were like oh okay so you like appreciate this go being able to walk through where they get ready I was like all the girls are also so cute like this was another moment where I felt not like I'm saying like oh my god I felt so old because they were in their 20s it wasn't that kind of feeling it felt more like I felt like oh I'm like a woman you know like I'm like a real because i'm like in the event of an emergency here comes my anxiety again i'm more of an adult than these kids like they would look to me and be like what do we do you are technically adults which is yeah like i was looking at the guys and i was just like oh my god babies i don't even think any of you are hot because you're children yeah and like this is

34:23Paige DeSorbo: just like so funny i was searching for a doctor and i wanted to find a really good doctor and you know like you look at where they went to school and i saw this woman and it said she graduated in 2013 which is when i graduate 2014 which is when i graduated and i was like okay you just graduated you're not gonna be my doctor I go wait she's been a doctor for over a decade but you know I'm not doing a doctor that graduated at the same time as me yesterday

34:56Hannah Berner: no that's happened to me too where I've like someone's like applied for something and I'm like do we really think like she can do it or he can do it and then I'm like wait a minute I'm the same age and I can do my job like obviously they can do that but like see there's something about

35:10Paige DeSorbo: seeing it where you're like uh no also like when i have to put my birthday in now like i be scrolling like i'm like okay yeah we're in the 90s okay a third scroll seems like you guys added a decade here no one's born in the 2020s that's great which actually brings me to another point i

35:32Hannah Berner: kept getting tiktoks of did you see that vogue is doing like a summer camp yes everyone kept

35:39Paige DeSorbo: talking about the summer interns at vogue but then i couldn't find the original video

35:44Hannah Berner: okay because i don't i don't know if i've seen the original video but i've seen like so many of them the amount of people tearing these 14 year old girls apart was unfathomable we've lost the plot no we've truly lost the plot i literally people are angry put it towards important places girls these women were like i mean it doesn't cost a lot of money to be unique i'm like just say you're jealous that they're literally experiencing something that you think that you deserve to have experienced like they're kids they're not runway models doing a runway show at

36:23Paige DeSorbo: vogue they're going to work they they're what do you want them to do they literally just got out

36:28Hannah Berner: of their mom's womb like give them a goddamn break they're 14 years old this is the crazy

36:33Paige DeSorbo: thing about the internet is the algorithm makes things socially acceptable because like people see like oh if I talk about it I get views and next thing you know it's normalized to for a bunch of girls to be like shitting on 14 year olds oh totally I was speaking with my gen z um cousin shout out Andrea she told me about dating in New York right now and she's like it's really bad I'm like what do you mean and she was like this one guy matched with me and was persistent about us going on a date where we walk by the river this is new york city by the way i said absolutely

37:09Hannah Berner: fucking not do you have a taser giving it no it's giving he's throwing you in do you have a taser gun be by the river i don't think so no it's crazy so now i'm like all stressed about her i said

37:21Paige DeSorbo: don't talk to men don't talk to men stop it so i'm like yelling at her and then her and her friends were so fucking cute they come up to me at this party my cousin's graduation and they go hannah can we ask you something i said yes come to the almighty one the all wise one

37:43Paige DeSorbo: and i got they said um this one girl was hanging out with a guy at the end of school and then it's summer and he came and visited her from albany all the way to this to where she was and he didn't kiss her and they hung out all day i said he's nervous these men are nervous and i would rather him be nervous than like too aggressive i mean 100 so like i think because then i said have you guys kissed before and she was like no we just hung out in groups and i was like okay it's actually okay so maybe he is just shy the first kiss like i don't know when i was younger first kiss like you know when you don't give them a chance like you don't give them an opening and you kind of want them to figure it out are you having like ptsd no i'm like have i ever had a first kiss

38:33Hannah Berner: i'm like i can't literally remember what no first kisses stress me because i always was like

38:43Paige DeSorbo: doesn't matter how good the moment was then i'm like are my lips chapped oh my god my breath is probably horrible right now oh my god what's happening oh my god like i'd just be freaking out

38:52Hannah Berner: i don't know i don't feel like i get freaked out or like i don't get nervous because i feel like i go into those situations where like not my job like if we're gonna kiss or not and when the moment is not my job to think about it's none of your business it's literally none of my our first kiss is none of my business like i'm not planning it i'm not plotting it like you have to go in for

39:15Paige DeSorbo: the opening i'm not doing anything but you know when you like definitely like challenge him where it's like let's see if he can make this work because i'm not giving him any openings just

39:24Hannah Berner: grab my face i'm a big proponent of like just take what you want you also like being hit by bricks

41:07Paige DeSorbo: Someone said they thought La Boo Boo's meant girls are going around having lobotomies. I mean, just got my first La Boo Boo.

41:16Hannah Berner: Here's the thing. A La Boo Boo is like, first of all, it's a beanie baby. Like everything comes back in like a modernized way.

41:26Paige DeSorbo: It's a beanie baby if it was like my sleep paralysis demon. It's scary.

41:30Hannah Berner: This isn't the first time we've had like a thing like a. I don't know. People are like, we have to find it and like we have to get it and blah, blah, blah.

41:37Paige DeSorbo: Do you think Jane Birkin would like the boo boo's being on her bags?

41:43Hannah Berner: I like I'm not against them. Would I ever get one or put one on my bag or give a fucking up? Like, absolutely not. Like, but I think girls in high school and college like, oh, my God, pop. Yeah. Get whatever you want. Like, cute.

41:57Paige DeSorbo: I try to stop us, though. Like, I don't want us to ever be haters. and to not understand the younger community that I identify with.

42:05Hannah Berner: I think the boo-boos are younger than even Gen Z.

42:09Paige DeSorbo: We don't know how it started. Is there a funny story? What's the lore? Because I just saw these things appear everywhere, and I don't understand it.

42:18Hannah Berner: No, it started in Japan, and I'm pretty sure it is like a... Collectible? No, it's like a character.

42:26Paige DeSorbo: Oh, of like a TV show? because this is what i'm trying to do just because you don't don't understand it doesn't

42:33Hannah Berner: mean that you hate it no i don't hate it but i it's a toy yes i like i'm not it's a kid's toy no okay it was created in hong kong um by this artist and he had this series called monsters and so he made these like cute little things and then like the whole lore of it was like you didn't know what color you were getting because it was like in these blind boxes and it just got like so collectible and then like came over to the states okay yeah so it's like remember when fendi came out with those little like puff things and everyone was putting them on their bags like that was also a trend too but like a little bit different i wish i could love anything as much

43:15Paige DeSorbo: that these people love la boo-boos like i wish a la boo-boo could bring me that kind of joy anything yeah like i don't care about shit like that no um wait i also hung out with another um toddler this last weekend i'm like very family oriented right now okay i hung out with well des is older so his friends have kids so we go to see their friends they have kids and then i like connect with the kid because i wasn't born in the 80s so i'm hanging out with the kid this girl is so cute she's like showing me that the house they're in um we get to the kitchen and she looks at me i swear to god she goes get me a knife

43:59i said what she goes get me a knife and i said look i'm not i don't know what's going on but

44:08Paige DeSorbo: and i would let you do literally anything like i really want you to have fun listen kid this is my

44:13Hannah Berner: first day off in about two months so i'm gonna need you to keep that weird shit for you and your mom

44:21Paige DeSorbo: i am out i'm not equipped to handle this right now i was trying to have a play a little game i was following i take plan b for this exact situation get the fuck out of my face and i'm so afraid of saying no to toddlers so i literally i start fighting with her about why i can't get her a knife i was like no because i know i was lying she knows i was lying i was like we don't have knives she goes yes we do you stupid bitch i know we have lives they could be saying literally

44:52Hannah Berner: any you could be having any type of conversation with the toddler and they could turn it in one second and like if they start crying or yelling or their voice gets above an octave the mom's looking over and you're the only adult presence like clearly it's your fault and that pressure is like when that little girl was like i'm gonna put sparkles all over your freshly manicured nails i was like put them on my face yeah do whatever you want well that was the thing she

45:15Paige DeSorbo: was playing with these sharks she loved these sharks and she looks at me and she goes i want to put the sharks in the pool and i was like okay that seems like a weird idea because you love playing with the sharks but fine let's throw the totally chuckle who am i to say no to you so we go she throws it in the pool then she looks at me and she's like can i get my sharks back i was like you what the fuck you tricked me you tricked me and then she's like give me my sharks And I said, but why did you throw it to the bottom of the pole if you wanted it? And then she's like, can I have a knife? And I was like, I literally like, I'm so sorry.

45:47Paige DeSorbo: I have to go.

45:48Hannah Berner: So you're rethinking your stance on children.

45:50Paige DeSorbo: Well, it definitely worried me. And then the other time I hung out with a kid, they put their finger in like right towards the socket. And I was like, why are we playing with danger so much? Like, let's enjoy it.

46:01Hannah Berner: It set you back.

46:02Paige DeSorbo: It set me back a little bit because I realized I can't. I don't have a firm hand. I don't have a firm hand. interesting i'm like like dez is gonna be like bad cop and i'm good cop oh my god hannah wait

46:17Hannah Berner: we've actually never talked about this and it's so funny you're saying that because that's so yeah why would i even think that you'd be super strict but this is the thing i need to be strict

46:27Paige DeSorbo: because of all the parenting stuff i've learned is like kids want structure like kids actually

46:32Hannah Berner: want you to say you know my mother always says that it's true there's nothing better for a child

46:38Paige DeSorbo: than structure literally but i've been failing since day one because i'm a people pleaser it doesn't matter how old they are like when i would babysit the kids would be like please can we watch this and i'm like yeah like they're watching like crazy shit like i let them do everything

46:51Hannah Berner: but see that's how i feel with like i don't but they're not yours like i genuinely don't give a flying fuck true about any other person's child and i just wanted them to watching yeah what they're eating like just as long as they're not dead and like and my job was honestly to befriend

47:12Paige DeSorbo: them and then get totally them and tell the mom like if they're dating anyone and like what's why they're failing out of math like I would get all the tea but like the strictness was not my thing I do think though Paige you're right like if there's something I care about like them having good manners I will be like and is that what we say yeah she gives you something like no time we

47:32Hannah Berner: walked in somewhere if my mom didn't immediately like turn and be like and you say their first like you say mister and their last name I'd be like oh my god okay I was gonna but like yeah like you have to keep doing that or then kids are like rude and they have no manners a hundred percent

47:49Paige DeSorbo: I have actually a lot of notes clogs are popular this summer are they apparently clogs are in which is very henna coated and i just wanted to see if you were okay i haven't really seen any

48:03Hannah Berner: well your algorithm was like no i haven't seen anyone clogging around recently um like wooden i did buy a pair of these like jelly not ballet flats they're like jelly ankle sandals i really don't know why i did it because now like i look at them and i'm like they're ugly but I wanted I wanted to wear them in Italy so I truly am like can you tell us what your Italy

With BetterHelp, insurance options may now be available nationwide, with an average copay for eligible members of just$23 per person. And while we're reconsidering old assumptions, maybe there are a few others worth questioning too. Being a woman can be hard in so many different situations in life. You have to be ambitious but not too intimidating. Be there for everyone but still make time for yourself. Have it all together but don't look like you're trying too hard.

50:05Hannah Berner: And so many different questions can come up. Should I have focused on my career more? Am I being a good partner? Am I even a good friend? You have to consider where all of these rules came from and whether you would ever impose them on someone you care about. And sometimes talking to someone who's completely out of the situation really is the answer and you can get clarity.

53:43Paige DeSorbo: wait but i saw it coming and the gigglers were just like page was like i'm good i did enough

53:48Hannah Berner: we're good here like what do we know the gigglers truly did get it you got the shot um it was like one of those things where you know you're like something happens to you or like you're insecure about something and you're like honestly no one's gonna notice and then you see your friend and it's like the first thing they say they're like yes are you gonna cover that pimple or something that's what it was i was like no they're gonna make it seem like i was still standing there no one's gonna see it and it's like where'd that girl go in the dumb elf

54:16Paige DeSorbo: i love how like so much crazy should happen on love island that episode and people were like but where is page sorbo and where was she for the last two people in the lumberjack challenge

54:45Paige DeSorbo: she needs the money and like well in all all realistically i don't know what the word is in all realness in all honesty you know thank you you're welcome i'm happy you're okay

55:00Hannah Berner: thank you no i really was fine like shortly thereafter but like i i mean i was in a full suede maxi skirt if i had gone back out there it would have been like i would have been yelling

55:11Paige DeSorbo: timber like i would have been i would have fallen you were in a torture chamber of a suede outfit um did we learn anything from this probably not you're probably gonna do it again for fashion death by fashion um the craziest thing is like i didn't even think of the out like you were like

55:29Hannah Berner: that's not why not a thing i was like i can push through anything i was like not a thing i'm not even you think that an outfit and sweat is gonna make get in between me and hosting this love island challenge like you're fucking nuts and then once i started swaying i was like okay you know some things are bigger than me some things are stronger than me

55:54Paige DeSorbo: and my willpower like would it be iconic if I fainted on the violence set right now okay so

56:00Hannah Berner: there was a part of me that was like just go viral do it because you want no not even go viral but like I really I if there's one thing I would say about myself it's that I really do have a good work ethic so the thought of like telling all of these hundreds of people who are trying to make a TV show like oh actually I can't finish was giving me more anxiety than the thought of like what if I did pass out because it's so hot and truly the only thing that made me say like I can't keep going was my fucking mom in my head being like you you faint you hit your head just right and you're in a Fiji jail and I can't get to you and something happens and you're dead that's all the drill No, a Fiji hospital.

56:48Hannah Berner: Sorry. I didn't also commit a felony. That got crazy.

56:54Hannah Berner: Sorry.

56:54Paige DeSorbo: She also is in my head like, don't go to jail in another country. No, me too. You have a gun to your head like, if you don't finish this challenge, you're going to jail. You're going to Fiji jail.

57:05Hannah Berner: I don't want to go to Fiji jail. So really, it was my mom in the back of my head being like, do you want to pass out, hit your head, and be in a hospital by yourself? No. like just stop you don't also like let's be honest it's not that serious and i actually

57:19Paige DeSorbo: no it's literally not that serious i did a gig today for the formula one movie and the producer was so it's like we went live for two hours which is crazy and the producer was so chill like she looked at me the first thing she said was like first of all this isn't life or death we're gonna have fun today and i was like thank you well here's the thing we work in entertainment

57:45Hannah Berner: sometimes like i'll get emails or i'll get like frantic text messages or like just like comments or i'm like guys

57:56Paige DeSorbo: we're in entertainment this was at a much smaller scale but when i did the bachelor i did this thing where i got i had to choose between loafers and heels for my outfit and in that moment i felt i was like what would page de sorbo do and i was like we're wearing heels like we're on the bachelor we're wearing the fucking heels i swear to god 12 minutes in i was like this is a bad

58:20Hannah Berner: choice this is a bad choice wait so far this is so bad so the shoes that i was wearing under the outfit they were like these clear shoes but where you put the toe was like silver metallic okay the shoes started cooking no no i literally i like i move my foot and i'm like whoa like where i just put my toes you were so hot you're frying your foot no i was a rotisserie chicken in there like i'm not kidding my vagina literally like it killed any bacteria or multiplied it i'm not sure because it was roasting down there. And then all of a sudden, I'm like, oh, my God, I'm microwaving my fucking toes.

59:06Hannah Berner: And so I had to try and put my skirt over my toes to block the sun. But, again, I'm in full cow high. I was an animal out there. I was literally in cow high. It's a literal wild buffalo out in Fiji. The contestants are getting sprayed with water every three seconds. They're fucking fine. I'm like guys I'm I'm at a loss of breath I can't see well like I'm seeing spots and they're like ask him if he's hard I'm like guys I can't right now I literally can't right now I can't do this you go before I black out is your heart

59:47Paige DeSorbo: before I can't breathe before I protect out vomit was your heart no and every time I'm like

59:55Hannah Berner: at a job or something i'm just like so appreciative of like everyone efficient and on time like i love when things run smoothly like i'm a team player and this time i was not being a team player i was

1:00:06Paige DeSorbo: like guys i gotta go it's not that you weren't a team player though i feel like there's so many moving pieces to a production that every now and then you're like oh no one thought about this and like you need to speak up to be like by the way because they're all worried about other things

1:00:19Hannah Berner: yeah oh my god yeah it's such a big show it's such a big production there's like so many moving parts i was just like such a small thing on the scale of like their whole season you

1:00:30Paige DeSorbo: have to also remember they're they do it every day like i can't the production's insane they're

1:00:35Hannah Berner: editing bays i mean that is i give them so they're cranking out an episode every single day it's

1:00:42Paige DeSorbo: crazy i do think that from what i know about reality tv they definitely edit based on the like reactions of what's going on of america yeah totally it's an entertainment show again

1:00:55Hannah Berner: at the end of the day we're doing entertainment it's fun we're entertaining um yeah so like the bachelor one i ended up just like taking my shoes off and i was like edit it out edit the

1:01:07Paige DeSorbo: edit the feed out no fix in post i did fit modeling when i was like early 20s which is you get chosen for like designers to use a human mannequin yeah but but it's like hard to get picked because you have to like perfect ratio sizing of like whatever i finally got my first job with like just like tahari or i don't know it was like a good game they pay you hourly like

1:01:32Hannah Berner: pretty well no fit models make a good amount i it was like a big deal and i get there and they put

1:01:39Paige DeSorbo: me in these shoes and like I never wear heels and I swear to God 30 minutes in I thought I was gonna faint and I'm all I'm doing is standing there and they were like are you okay and you were and I just was like I'm gonna lose this job if I can't fucking stand for 30 minutes you're also stressed so it like makes everything worse question have you fainted before like

1:02:02Hannah Berner: when's the last time you've like truly passed out so some people are fainters yeah like some

1:02:09Paige DeSorbo: people are more prone to it i think you are and you're prone to puking i haven't fainted since i was like really sick once like in high school and i like was dizzy when i got out of bed and

1:02:19Hannah Berner: fainted for like a second well i puke when i'm wake up no i puke when i'm wildly uncomfortable yes like yes like that's why like there's so many ex-boyfriends where there's so many different stories or situations where i'm like and i threw up the whole time you know what i mean And I'm like, and that was crazy. And it's because I'm so wildly uncomfortable.

1:02:44Paige DeSorbo: Your body's literally rejecting the moment.

1:02:46Hannah Berner: Yes. Like my, yes, my body is literally like, I can't do this. So like I was so dehydrated, but even drinking water, my body was like, no, we don't even want this. We have to go like, yeah, this is, it's too much. But when I'm going to pass out, my tell is, which I don't know if anyone else feels this, my whole it almost feels like my sinuses lock up like my nose locks up and my head all of a sudden will get really tight and I know that I probably have like 30 30 to 45 seconds where like if I don't sit down or like get to somewhere where like I'm gonna be or like start drinking water or chill like I'm gonna be out so I'm standing up there for Love Island and all of a sudden I like blink and my head just gets so tight and i'm like and then in my microphone i'm like i'm going down i'm literally i'm going down and you guys can come down with me

1:03:52Hannah Berner: i'm using the mic like a walkie-talkie i'm like we got what we need they're like no we didn't page you still have more lines i'm like we're gonna wrap this up right thank you craft services

1:04:26Hannah Berner: being like such a love island fan i'm at a hotel and obviously like they have to keep the love the

1:04:32Paige DeSorbo: islanders somewhere yeah like before they're going in or if they're like a bombshell or they're

1:04:38Hannah Berner: casa more so like the hotel i'm at like i would say the demographic is like either like a young family or it's like retired people so like every once in a while i'll just see like a rogue really fucking hot girl walking through a sea of like 85 year olds and i'm like that's a bombshell

1:05:02Paige DeSorbo: them trying to have conversation with each other in the elevator that's what i want to watch but i do think your body does tell you things and i think i think a lot of women are very intuitive where like you know your body um absolutely however i've been joking with des because the other day i like in the middle of the day was like i want chocolate yeah and i never well i

1:05:27Hannah Berner: never i never want to say you never want like sweets like that oh my god so des are you pregnant

1:05:35Paige DeSorbo: and he was like are you pregnant and we kind of joked like oh maybe and then that night i was like i want a hot dog and he was like you never you never eat hot dogs and i was like i know it's crazy and i get the hot dog like wouldn't it be crazy if i put pickles on it then i'm calling the police and then the next day i was like i need like the biggest omelet in the world and then we realized i'm just

1:06:03Hannah Berner: you're just addicted to food i just love food yeah you just love it well because then he was like do you think you're pregnant and i was like i don't you're you're very much the type of person that you're like the only thing that could make this exact moment better is if we were all stuffing

1:06:44Paige DeSorbo: just like need to eat all these things i'm like yes and then he was like look up the symptoms and i'm like okay if you get like kind of tired and i'm like i'm actually really tired and then i was like and i mean i'd probably be a little bloated you've been pregnant for 12 years i think you'd be bloated i go does i'm bloated and i'm tired and i'm hungry and i'm hungry and he was like
