What's up, gigglers? Gary, fix the WiFi. Manifest that shit. We can't be managed.

00:00:09

I mean, the day just got away from me.

00:00:15

What's up, my Grandma Garden, gigglers?

00:00:18

Grandma garden?

00:00:20

Garding.

00:00:21

Garding. Grandma Garden.

00:00:24

The Gigglers rode. Nana called me. She was like, What did I do to deserve all this love. I keep getting messages.

00:00:33

Oh, wait. What? Yeah, wait. Where did they... What means of... What platform did they...

00:00:39

It's on threads. Nana doesn't even know what a thread is, besides what may be on her gorgeous sweater.

00:00:47

Let me just preface that I am doing something that's so evil to do to my friend. I made Hannah wake up at 7: 30 in the morning because she's in LA. I have to catch a flight, and I was like, We have to record Giggly Squad. And this was the only time that worked for us. So Hannah's still fully sleeping. So whatever she says in this next 45 minutes, she's not liable for. It's not her. Her hair looks, if you're listening, her hair looks stunning. I've never seen it so perfectly tossled because she went to bed, what, probably three, four hours ago.

00:01:29

It's still Who knew a curl could hold?

00:01:35

You literally look like you could Irish dance at any minute. You have the perfect ringlet.

00:01:41

Wait. At Athena, Alberto, she She's incredible.

00:01:46

She's incredible.

00:01:47

If you question how a curl could hold, just watch this episode. No, I had my LA show last night, and Paige was like, Hey, I got to I do a 7: 45 recording the next morning. I was like, Sure.

00:02:03

I was like, We could do it later at night, and it could just come out a little bit later in the day. I was like, Absolutely not. I can totally get up at 7: 30.

00:02:11

I can do it. And then I'm getting text at 7: 20. She's like, I'm ready when you are.

00:02:16

No, it's honestly so mean of me because let me tell you, I had the slowest morning. I woke up, I took a shower.

00:02:23

I had ice coffee from yesterday, old ice coffee that I poured in here, and then I had a lactate creamer through Let's get that in. Let's fucking go. I'm not fucking around this pod. I'm awake now. I'm awake now.

00:02:36

I mean, let's get into it. Okay, one thing I want to say that I've been thinking about all week.

00:02:42

I mean, and all morning because you've just been waiting for me.

00:02:45

I know, literally. I'm just like, What am we going to talk about on the pod? I rarely do a mental health moment of the day or of the week because I'm like, push it down.

00:02:51

You go, That's for Hannah's thing.

00:02:53

Push it down like the rest of us, okay? Cry to your mom in one Uber ride, and then suck it the fuck up. I saw this TikTok the other day, and it was a funny TikTok, and a girl was saying something about, I didn't overreact. If anything, I underreacted. And you know You're in your mid-20s, maybe even early, late, whatever, and you do something and you're like, That was a crazy situation. It sticks in your brain so much that you think about it years later before you're falling asleep at night. You just lay in bed and you're like, Remember when I?

00:03:31

Absolutely. Can you not talk about the bed right now? Because I'll fall asleep. I swear to God, if you bring up sleep or the bed, I will fall asleep right now. I'm fighting for my life. I was like, What pillow were you sleeping on? Tell it to me slowly. I'm also fully wearing my Daphné Hanatie pajamas right now.

00:03:52

No, is it the best sleep shirt ever? I inadvertently made a pajama line for pregnant moms, and I didn't even I mean to.

00:04:00

I was going to say, You made a pajama line just for me and pregnant moms. I am a pregnant mom.

00:04:05

I get so many pregnant moms being like, Hey, this shirt that ties in the front is fucking phenomenal for breastfeeding. I'm like, I didn't even mean to do that.

00:04:14

Literally everything in your line works for pregnant moms. I'm like, Are you trying to say something? Wait, sorry, I interrupted you. What were you going to say?

00:04:22

You know when you're laying in bed at night and you're like, Oh, my God. Remember when I was 24 years old and I flicked out in front of everyone and like, How could I have done that? Recently, I've been thinking about those moments, and I'm like, I wonder if I'm experiencing moments right now that in five years, I'm going to be like, wow, I overreacted. And I was like, you know what? No. If anything I think there are so many times where I have underreacted, but society has made me think, Don't be dramatic, don't be crazy. You're being a bitch, when in reality, I should have burnt your house down.

00:04:59

Yeah.

00:05:00

No, 100 %. That was my mental health moment for the week. You're not overreacting. If anything, you could be underreacting, and you'll think about it in five years.

00:05:08

Literally, I had so many points I wanted to say, and I forgot all of them because that was such an intense way to start the pod when you know I'm asleep. And you're like, Let me just start about judging our entire life and what I should have done. I literally had good points to make, and my brain was like, no.

00:05:23

I'm actually so sorry for that.

00:05:25

No. Actually, can I have a mental health moment?

00:05:28

Sure.

00:05:29

Because I shouldn't have watched Traitors. It triggered me.

00:05:34

It did. The reality of it?

00:05:37

Yeah. I just have to say, I'll make this quick. Just like Ron Funch is as a fellow comedian. I watched there's a scene where Dorinda says something that's not that bad and mentions his family. And he responds like, Fuck you. Never talk about my family again. I literally- What's the problem? I literally was talking to my friend, and I was like, That was out of nowhere, and that was insane. And then literally today on threads, Ron Funches was like, Do you really think that's the only thing she said to me? And that's how I reacted. I'm like, Hannah fucking burner. How dare you do that to someone else? How dare you? How dare you do that to someone else after what you went through? So just know that there's a lot more things that are said to make people snap than what you see.

00:06:28

You want to know what? You're I don't want people to get triggered by this. You're like an alcoholic where you were like, I've been sober for this certain amount of years. You know what? I actually could probably handle one cocktail at dinner. That's literally what happened. You had the cocktail at dinner, and you're like, See, I'm totally fine. You're like, you go back to dinner the next week, and you're like, Maybe I could have two cocktails. You have two cocktails, and then you're like, Hold the fuck on. I'm getting on the bar.

00:07:01

Now I've been arrested. I'm on TMZ with my shirt off, and I'm snorting lines of cocaine.

00:07:09

We now find you in LA waking up at 7: 30 AM being like, You know what? I miscalculated.

00:07:17

I go, I'm so sorry. I'm so sorry. I've lost my family and my friends.

00:07:22

Hannah is no longer our trader's correspondent. We hate to see her go, but we respect her at this time.

00:07:29

I mean, the fact that I felt a negative feeling towards the adorable Ron Frunches when clearly more stuff was said to make him snap. I just want to apologize to the community. No.

00:07:43

I had so many people in my DMs being like, loved your rant about Colton, loved it even more knowing you haven't seen a single second of this season. I'm like, And that's what I'm here to do. I'm here to have opinions on things I don't know about or care about.

00:08:00

People were like, Hannah, how can you do two episodes? And I'm like, It's just about having really hard takes about things you don't know that much about. And you just have to fucking commit. Pick a side and go. And Paige and I tend to pick separate sides, and that's 30 minutes. That's 30 minutes right there.

00:08:15

Because, okay, if you get on the phone with your friend at a random time during the day, it's literally just you two back and forth.

00:08:23

Yeah, you don't call with an outline. And next thing you know, you're two hours in, and multiple people's names have been dragged through the mud.

00:08:33

One of my girlfriends called me last week, and I was like, Hey, I'm really tired. I actually can't get on the phone. Let's voice note this. And she goes, Totally respect your privacy. I just have to say one thing on the phone. It's going to be two minutes. Four hours later, I was like, I was early for something. I've now missed it. You've ruined my day.

00:08:56

Let me say something about socializing as two people who have social anxiety. And we're both so respectful of each other's social anxiety. I'm literally like, call me when you feel like it. I'm here. I'm waiting by the phone. I'm literally like that. I'm like, I won't call you out of nowhere because if I do, I know you get startled.

00:09:18

You do always tell me your location. You're like, Hey, I'm sitting at this hotel. I'm in my room.

00:09:23

I'm in a peaceful place. There'll be no sudden movements. But I do have to say- Now I can't.

00:09:35

Now you know what I'm doing. Every time we are like, Hey, I'm in the Uber. I'm on my way to the hotel. Give me a call if you want.

00:09:42

If you need me, if you feel safe, if you feel secure, if you've done your deep breathing, I'm available for about 15 minutes tops, and then I will have to go and continue my day. Meanwhile, me calling my mom, blowing up her phone. My mom needs to have a restraining order on me.

00:09:59

My My mom might go no contact with me for what I've put her through the past two weeks because I've called her so many times and been like, And another thing. Back to the morning conversation.

00:10:10

My life is one long phone call with my mom with breaks in between. That's what our life is.

00:10:14

No, it really is. It's a stream of consciousness. Speaking of mother-daughter duos, we didn't... This is the first time we get to talk about that we're interviewing Kate Hudson, Brenda Song, and Mindy Kaling for Netflix. The Kate Hudson Hudson- Goldi Han relationship, mother-daughter relationship, is one of the best things in my life, personally. Kate Hudson just got nominated for an Oscar, and Goldi Han's- And she sings in it. She's amazing. Goldi Han's caption of congratulating her daughter was as if she had just graduated the sixth grade and is going into junior high. It felt like she just had Kate. It was like my baby. Years ago, I had this baby girl, Kate, and now look, it was just so sweet and wholesome.

00:11:09

Also, she is an example of a neppo baby that we're like, Thank God. Thank God she got into acting.

00:11:14

Thank God.

00:11:16

Thank God she gave us How to Lose a Guy in 10 Days. Still one of the greatest rom-coms that ever did. Ever did it.

00:11:22

That ever did live. Another thing that's been on my timeline and-Oh, you came.

00:11:27

You were like, I came prepared.

00:11:28

I came Hannah's fully asleep, and I have things to say. Another thing that's on my timeline that I literally didn't ask for, but since this is a sports podcast, the Miami football game, Why I'm Getting Fed This. So I see one TikTok of some speech, and I'm like, That was so sweet. That's the sweetest speech I've ever seen. Then I see another TikTok, and it's like- You stayed too long on the speech. I stayed too long on the speech, and then I got the entire lure of the guy on Indiana, Fernando Mendoza, who is now my personal- Wait, this is not to brag, but mama's been on the road, and I haven't been able to consume Miami niche sports.

00:12:15

Content? Can you tell- I didn't want to consume Miami niche sports either. Can you tell the group what's going on?

00:12:23

In layman's terms, basically, there was a big football game. Everyone was freaking out about it. And it was Miami, Indiana. Great. Apparently, Indiana is horrible. This is the first time in a billion years they've ever been good. Their quarterback is this kid named Fernando Mendoza. Now, unbeknownst to me, he's from Miami. His parents are Cuban. He's from Miami. He grew up his whole life wanting to go to Miami. I later find out that the coach of Miami also went to high school with this guy's dad. So you think he's going to go to Miami. He's going to be put on the team. He goes, I'll walk on. Miami is like, Get out of here. We don't want you.

00:13:02

See, that's fucking crazy because you guys don't know, walk on is literally saying, Can I play for free? I don't need a scholarship. Just let me. It's basically like, Can you let me sit on the bench? So they basically said no to letting him sit on the bench.

00:13:17

They were like, No. He goes to Indiana. He becomes the quarterback. He wins the Heisman Trophy this year. They go undefeated.

00:13:24

Which is insane because Indiana never has come close. Never wins.

00:13:28

He goes down to Miami for the last big, whatever, championship it is. Not only does he make the game-winning countdown, his parents are in the audience. His mom has MS, so she cannot stand to cheer for him. So the dad doesn't stand either.

00:13:46

He sits next to her. It's 6: 00 AM. I can't do this right now.

00:13:52

I'm literally on my phone. It's 2: 00 AM, and I'm crying over Fernando Mendo's. I'm like, now I need more.

00:13:59

You know, sports is the only thing that makes me cry. I won't cry about anything except sports.

00:14:03

It was the sweetest story. And in a world still of male, loneliness, epidemic, bullshit. Here comes a guy, whatever generation that even is. I mean, senior in college, I have no idea. Is that still Gen Z? Yeah, I would assume. He just seems so pure. He's just a nice guy. It's just Honestly, all the men should be taking rather than watching red pill TikToks of guys look smaxing, they should be looking up to this kid. And then there was a shot of him at 11, the strip club in Miami, and I was like, Have a great time.

00:14:46

Yeah, that's where we went on my bad shirt. That's where Paige got me a table. And that's where Ja Rule came out. Make sure you listen to that episode.

00:14:53

Anyway, I hope to never be back on College Football TikTok because that was...

00:14:58

The truth is, is sports is men's reality TV, so it does track that if you would consume male content, it would be the most dramatic game.

00:15:07

I was like, Yes, give me a story, honey. Give me side characters. Give me lore from high school.

00:15:13

No, literally, it's like a reunion that you were watching was the bowl championship. Also, the fact that you said layman's terms, that's so funny to me because I'm like, First of all, who's a layman? And do you think layman is like, can some people stop using my terms?

00:15:29

Yeah, I always like to think about it. In my head, I picture someone laying down. You can listen to this information while you're fast asleep.

00:15:37

But layman's like, maybe let's not plagiarize and let's come up with our own things and stop using my shit. In terms of socializing, I just remembered one of the things I was going to say, the rest is dead. It'll never come back to me. As someone who's nervous about socializing, I might say this before, but I feel like for mental health, it's good for you to be around people, to see yourself through their eyes. Because you know how you're constantly in your own head making up your own stories about who you are and what you do and what's your story today of how people view you. And then you hang out with one friend and they say one thing and you're like, Oh, okay. I made a real complicated situation.

00:16:18

Have you ever described yourself to someone and then you sat back and been like, I'm nothing like that. Why have you said that? Sometimes I'll hear myself and I'll be like, Yeah, I love going and doing that. And I'll be like, No, I don't. I literally hate going there and doing that.

00:16:36

Now, when I go into that perspective, it makes me see some positivity because sometimes I'm like, this is just me forcing myself to extend energy when I don't need to. Also, I do want to expose the name of someone I told a story about on my pod because I'm very protective of people, and I will not tell people's names. But I ran into them yesterday, and I was like, Do you know I told a story about you on the pod? And she was dying laughing. She's like, You should have said my name. You should have said my name. Can you tell them it was me? Because that's hilarious. The girl who was trying to party with me.

00:17:11

Who was traumatized to find out not only were you in your 30s But you were also betrothed.

00:17:17

Married. I forgot about that part. Thought I was 27, which obsessed with her. It was Tara Yumey, who I did not know who she was. She started messaging me, and then Grace, my Gen Z icon was like, That's Mrs. Tara yummy that you're talking to. I was like, Oh, my God. Tara came to my show last night. We had so much fun.

00:17:42

She's on YouTube. She's a streamer.

00:17:44

And she's just that girl, and she's just so fun and really friendly.

00:17:49

I feel like I've used her sounds before.

00:17:52

And she has amazing taste in comedy, clearly. But she's so cute. She comes to the show, she stays afterwards. We're talking, and she looks at me and she goes, I was going ask you to come out with us, but I know you don't do that. And I said, And now we're going to be close, babe. Now you get me.

00:18:07

Hey, Nana, when's your ambient start? When do you have to take that? She said, Do you need a hot tea? It's past 8: 00 PM. Peppermint? I know you like Peppermint.

00:18:20

Can you put my pill in the Jell-O, please? I'm like, Tara, do you not work?

00:18:26

The clock strikes 10: 00, and you're like, Tara, honey, get my socks.

00:18:30

My knee. Get my socks. Tuck me in. But no, I had the show in LA, and it actually- Wait, we're going to be great grandmas. Can we skip to that?

00:18:45

Fuck all that kid shit and being a mom and all that pain-staking, just decision-making.

00:18:54

I feel like the only difference between grandma and aunt is grandma, well, there's It's lots of difference. But you both can leave when you want. But also, Grandma, you're the matriarch. You're in charge of everyone there. I was talking to Nana. Yeah, she called me, and she was like, Why am I getting all this love? You love me so much. And I'm like, Nana, you made everyone. It's because you and Papa met at a church when you were 18.

00:19:22

I basically started this family, and none of you would be anything without me.

00:19:27

Literally. Not to bring this up because I So your grandma has since passed with my grandpa, and they're hanging out right now giggling.

00:19:34

I have zero grandparents. You talk about your grandparents every single pod.

00:19:38

You literally sound like Des when I complain about my grandpa, and he's like, You have two grandparents and two I have my grandparents left. I have nothing.

00:19:47

You know what actually is so... It's so nice you being 34 and you still have a full set of grandparents. That's unheard of, I feel like.

00:19:55

And see, that's perspective. Instead of me crying every night over my grandpa, I should have the gigglers fight for Nana's rights.

00:20:01

I mean, your grandma got to see you get married. I feel like that rarely happens.

00:20:04

My grandma performed at Carnegie Hall. My grandma's lived to be... She's famous. But one thing I have to say about my Nana, she does not stop talking about death. She literally just gets on the phone and she's like, Okay, now, I live such a good life. I've lived such a good life, and I love you. And I hope I make it to the next time I see you.

00:20:31

And I'm like, why is- She's always hoping to make it to the next day. It's so morbid.

00:20:37

What are you and Paige doing? Because I need something to look forward to. No. And I'm like, Nana, you're going to make me cry. It's literally 11: 00 AM on a Tuesday, and she's like, Oh, I've had so many good life experiences. What did I do to deserve this beautiful life that's going to end any day now? She's like, Okay, I hope I talk to you again, and this This isn't the last time. I'm like, Nana, why? I'm crying in an Uber right now. Why do you do this?

00:21:07

I'm having a great day that's going to end any second.

00:21:11

Oh, and then my papa apparently got this test, and the guy was like, he's perfect. He's going to live till he's 100. She goes, I'm going to die before papa. Take care of him.

00:21:24

No, Nana and Papa are going to literally go on the same day. There's no way they're living a second without each other.

00:21:32

Yeah. No, I know. And that's the ultimate romantic thing. Like, murder, suicide. That's what you have to do.

00:21:37

I was just going to say this is the ultimate romantic comedy. I have been watching all of the major movies that... Well, I have a list that have been nominated.

00:21:52

You're basically in the academy.

00:21:53

I'm in the academy. You are in the academy. I'm SAG. I'm voting. I'm in there. So I I watched Begonia over the weekend. I did, too. Last weekend, and I watched Sinners.

00:22:07

What are your thoughts?

00:22:09

Emily Stone, former Emma Stone, is such a good actress, and she's so good at... Begonia was one of the weirdest, creepiest, very original storytelling, and she's so so good at, in her movies, being relatable, but also being the actress that you need in that movie, the character in that movie. I don't know how she does it. You know how we talk about, if you're going to see a Ryan Reynolds movie, you're going to see Ryan Reynolds pretend to be something, but you're watching Ryan Reynolds. Emily Stone is so good at being her- Can you call her? No, I love it. That's my new thing. I'm like, Don't call her the wrong name. She's requested Emily. She's good at you knowing it's her, but also fully believing in her character. You're so right. And I thought I was going to hate that movie.

00:23:08

See, I love weird-ass movies like that. But it's funny because Emily Stone is in it, you know she's going to take care of you. You're like, I know that she's going to make sure this is going to be good for us.

00:23:19

I love her friendship with Jennifer Lawrence, because whenever I'm going to watch a Jennifer Lawrence movie, I'm like, even if the movie is shit, I don't care because I want to watch Jennifer Lawrence do whatever she's doing. I want to hang out with her for the next hour and a half, so I don't care what the other characters are doing. I'm going to watch her.

00:23:36

You know what people don't talk about enough? Easy A and Crazy Stupid Love were such fucking good movies that do not get recognized enough in the cultural zeitgeist.

00:23:46

One time, I dated a guy and... It's horrible.

00:23:51

Okay. It's literally 07: 00 AM. Why would you say that?

00:23:56

Crazy stupid love. I went through a phase where that was the movie I would just turn on at night to be like, We'll fall asleep to this. And he was like, I think that movie is the worst. I think it's so stupid. It makes me feel uncomfortable and weird. And don't put it on.

00:24:11

Let's unpack that, sir. Let's unpack that. In layman's terms, let's unpack that.

00:24:17

And I was like, That's such a random movie to absolutely be triggered by. It's a romantic comedy. What's his name is in it? How do you hate anything?

00:24:27

Steve Carel is in it.

00:24:29

And what's the hot guy?

00:24:31

Ryan Gosling.

00:24:31

Yeah. I'm like, How do you hate anything with Ryan Gosling? That's so weird. You probably wanted to sleep with Ryan Gosling. And that's a cross that's not mine to bear for a minute. Yeah.

00:24:42

Wait, can I give a Beckham update?

00:24:46

Yes.

00:24:47

Because I actually talked to Dez, which we don't talk enough about. Dez is a Scorpio just like Page, and he's a psychic, even though he doesn't believe in psychics. I said, Dez, what is going on with the situation? And he's like, I don't know what you're talking about. Tell me what happened. And I'm like, Okay, well, Page's psychic take is that the girl wrote it. And he goes, What did she say? And I gave him the tea of it. And he goes, This is what gives it away. No guy would care that much about their wedding. He goes, No guy would write about their wedding that much. And I was like, So you didn't like getting married to me? And he's like, This isn't about us.

00:25:24

Well, I also think... Oh, my God. Look, Victoria Beck. I'm with Team Victoria on this, David Beckham came out, and he was on some... He was corresponding some type of show in the UK, some match or something. He inadvertently said, Kids have to make mistakes, and you let your kids make mistakes on their own, and especially with social media. Then one of her stylists came out and said that she was like, Look, people can come out with different stories and be like, Victoria is awful. No, Nicole is awful.

00:26:00

Which is not good for girlhood, but continue. Yeah. Again, we're getting distracted. There's more important things happening in the world than these two hot girls fighting. But anyway, I continue.

00:26:12

It's the same thing with Prince Harry, even though the situations are so... I don't think they're that similar. It's just that they're British. If a guy wants to leave his family, he's doing it. I don't know. That is a thing within him. You can't tell him anything.

00:26:32

Wait, that's so funny because daughters don't do that.

00:26:35

Yeah, I feel like daughters... If the roles were reversed, I really think people would be like, Hey, is he controlling you? No one's really diving into that. I don't know. It's a sad situation all around.

00:26:49

Also, I do have to say Nikola does follow me on TikTok, which means she has incredible taste, high brow taste in comedy. So I have to factor that in. But then also Why Victoria Beckham is my everything.

00:27:02

If I'm at my wedding and Posh Spice wants to dance, I'm going to let her freaking dance. She could beat me over the head.

00:27:09

She could punch me in the face at my wedding.

00:27:11

With the cutlery at the wedding, and I'd be like, Thanks.

00:27:14

People are tagging me and our fallen of me doing the worm going Victoria Beckham at Nicole's wedding. But the truth is, this is family shit, and it feels dirty. But also, I'd like to remember, British press...

00:27:32

Is really intense.

00:27:33

Is insane, next level. I know this as a tennis watcher, that in all the Grand Slams, Wimbledon is the one where there's always chaos Because the press goes insane with the players, and it's unacceptable.

00:27:50

Wait.

00:27:50

Yeah.

00:27:51

Speaking of tennis, is there something going on with two of the tenets? Yeah. What's going on with the two?

00:27:57

If you guys want to know. Okay. Naomi O'Saka and Serana Kristeia. Now, Kristeia has been in the game for a long time. She's 35. This is her last year of playing. This is her last Australian Open. She's playing Naomi O'Saka, who is going to go down as one of the greatest of all times, had a baby, and is now coming back, hasn't fully-Oh, I didn't know she had a baby. Yeah, she was basically at the top of her game. Everyone's like, She's the next Serena. Had a baby, and now she's coming back. She's seated now. She's doing great. I feel like a I'm a ESPN sports broadcaster right now. This is the thing about women's tennis. It's brutal. It's one-on-one. For three hours, you're basically fighting a girl. You'd love it. You're like, Tell me more. What are the strategies? In tennis, there's all these little things that make things rude or not rude. For example, the last one with Taylor Townsend and someone else, I Sopango got mad because she won a point when the ball hit the top of the net and came over, which is lucky. And if you win a point, even if it's not the reason you won the point, but it happened during the point, you should put your hand up to just acknowledge, I'm sorry, which is funny because baseball- Wait.

00:29:16

I love that in women's tennis, it's like, And also be courteous.

00:29:21

You have to win, but you also have to say, Sorry for winning. Oh, my God. You have to apologize. But meanwhile, baseball The guy will take a hard baseball rock, hit a guy, square in the back. He's grand in the back, and he won't say sorry.

00:29:40

He'll be like, What's up?

00:29:41

I'm watching what he does. I'm like, he didn't put his hand up, and he's like, They just don't do that. I'm like, That was by accident. You can say sorry. He didn't purposely hit the guy.

00:29:49

Not to bring the heated rivalry into it all.

00:29:52

You have to. We all do.

00:29:53

All I see are hockey clips and them fighting. Then I saw a hockey clip, and it was kids' hockey. Maybe the kids were 11, 12 years old, and they were letting them truly beat the shit out of each other on the ice. I'm like, Hey, this is so fucking crazy that this is even an allowed thing in the sport. I don't understand that.

00:30:16

I don't think girls hockey do that. I don't think.

00:30:19

No, because they're normal. We kill each other with words. I think because I was so passionate about traders, then I kept getting TikToks of professional athletes that have done some of the most horrible things to women and their girlfriends, wives. And then they got a $50 million deal to play for the next five years. And it was like, they strangled their girlfriend. They had to sit out two games. They got caught smoking weed, had to sit out four. And so it's like, there's all these little things in these super male dominated arenas that I feel like we don't even notice because we're not even in there, that subconsciously teach them like, No, you can do that. Just as long as you're good at a sport, we don't give a fuck.

00:31:08

Now, for women's tennis, I do have to say this shit is happening all the time. This isn't a crazy drama. There's other matches where there was drama, and it's just, Naomi's such a star. When you win a point, you're allowed to be like, Come on. But when you say, Come on, there's also rules. You can't do it.

00:31:27

Now you have to curtail your voice.

00:31:29

You have You're not allowed to say, Come on, at the girl. You have to say it in the general vicinity. If I hit a winner and I look at you and I go, Come on, right at you, that's considered bad relationship. But if I turn to my team or I just say, Come on, in the air, it's okay.

00:31:44

In hockey, I can pull my helmet off, beat the fuck out of you with.

00:31:50

Well, look, tennis is a gentleman's sport, as they say. But it's funny. I've never said it out loud. And me saying out loud, the nuances sound fucking insane. No, that sounds insane. You're just like, Yeah, these are the rules. Also, in junior tennis, you call your own lines. So that means you're basically your own umpire. Do you know how much cheating was happening? Everyone's parents are about to beat the shit of them if they lose. You're like, Out? Anyway, I have mental illness. What happened is Naomi's pumped up. It's a third set. Serana Cristeia, she misses her first serve. She's about to hit a second serve. Also, if someone misses, it's considered not great sportsmanship to say, Come on, because it's like, They made a mistake. You didn't do anything. It's one thing if it's a forced error, which means I hit a really good shot, which made you make a mistake, that's okay. But if someone just double faults, you don't say, Come on. Serana missed her first serve.

00:32:53

You have to have Catillion while you're also trying to play a goddamn sport.

00:32:59

Yeah, you're You're literally competing and also having to be so British.

00:33:03

Mind your manners.

00:33:04

You have to be British. After the first serve, Naomi is pumping herself up. She's like, Come on, let's go. But I could see how Serana would be like, Are you cheering for my first serve miss? But look, it's one of those things where it's like it's a third set. It's war. You're in a war. She then decides to care in it and go to the umpire and be like, Is she allowed to fucking do that? And the umpire is like, You mean between serves? And she's like, Is she allowed to? And the umpire is like, Yeah, she's allowed to because it wasn't a hindrance because you weren't serving.

00:33:38

She's allowed to speak between serves.

00:33:40

But then it's like, But in theory, it's, I guess, considered at sportsmanship to say, Come on, after someone misses a serve. However, Naomi also was pumping herself up. So it's very nuanced.

00:33:53

This is really funny for me, specifically, because we have an inside joke in my family that the only phrase my dad says is, Come Come on.

00:34:02

Wait, he loves that. That's his vocal stem. Come on. Come on.

00:34:08

Anytime something happens in our family, if you get a text that says, Come on, with a bunch of Ns, we know in dad's voice, you're pissed off, but also you don't really care. It's just a small aggravation. Wait, small side note. Just to explain my dad in a goddamn nutshell. I had to shoot something over the past three days. And so I had my parents come to New York. I was like, Why don't you come and come to set with me? It's going to be fun. Whatever. My dad is standing in front of me at my apartment, and he's like, You know, Paige, I just want to say something about the past couple of days. Now, I think he's going to say, So proud of you. So cool to witness what you've done. This is magical. This was so like, I love When you so much.

00:35:00

The woman you've become.

00:35:01

He goes, Now the Uber to the place and back home. I didn't like that guy. But the second day, that guy knew what he was doing. Why didn't you get his card? He could have driven you around.

00:35:13

I'm obsessed with him.

00:35:14

And I'm like, So in the past three days, the only things you wanted to speak your mind about is the transportation.

00:35:21

I'm obsessed with him. That reminds me of my first show at the Palladium in New York City that I sold out, and everyone's freaking out. My opener, Tracy Carnazo, she drove in from Queens. She gets in, and my dad walks in, and he says, Hi to Tracy. He goes, How did you get here? She goes, Oh, I parked. He goes, You found a parking spot in Times Square? She's like, Yeah, I got... There's this place around the corner. He goes, You found a... Hannah, she found a parking spot in Times Square. Literally, I do the whole show, like best night of my life. Get off. We're in the car. My dad goes, Tracy Carnazo, that girl, she found a fucking parking spot in Times Square. He talks about this for two weeks. He sees her now. He goes, Remember when you found that parking spot in Times Square? That is so dad. Like, literally walked off the stage and he goes, Tracy's awesome. Tracy's awesome. And also, you know I couldn't drive at that point, so it was very triggering for me. I was like, I feel like this is coming towards me. Anyway, Naomi, Serana, you can go to the umpire and be like, Is that girl in trouble?

00:36:31

What's going on? It's like, Mom, she did this. You tattle. And then the person was like, This is one of these rules. That's between you two. It's a nuance. Naomi is clearly like, This girl's mad at me. And it gets fucking heated.

00:36:51

Hey, quick before we start again, are you mad at me?

00:36:54

It's very obvious. Also, what you love is when you play, if I hit ball and you call it out, and I know you cheated me, I can't get you to change it. All I can do is be like, Are you sure? So I basically come to the net and go, Are you sure? Basically, Are you going to do this? Because then I'm going to cheat you back later. So all girls- That's so fucking passive-aggressive.

00:37:17

That's so British, I feel like.

00:37:19

And then the girl responds and she'll be like, Yeah. And then you go, How far was it out? Because you know she's cheating. So you go, How far was it? And then she'll make a huge two feet. And I'm like, Okay, cool. This This was my childhood.

00:37:30

Oh, my God, Hannah. That feels very Southern, like bless your heart, where you're like, yes.

00:37:36

Would you just say to me, bitch? Are you sure? It's basically me going, I don't believe you. Are you sure? And then you wait and you cheat them When it's the most important point of the set. But I digress. That's just dark.

00:37:49

I was seeing TikTok videos, and I was just like, I can't fully understand what they're fighting about.

00:37:56

People think Serana was mad that Naomi said, Come on. It's because it was in between her first and second serve, which is unheard of. But in the third set, things get heated, and I've done it. You just get pumped up and you're just talking. Also, Naomi was talking to herself. That was also the nuance. Naomi was like, Come on, pump yourself up. If I had a nickel. She wasn't being like, Yeah, you hit the serve wide. Yeah, come on. Also, Naomi is known to actually have really good sportsmanship and be really calm.

00:38:28

Very good etiquette on the court. Yeah.

00:38:30

She always holds herself really not too many emotions.

00:38:35

I feel like I've seen some of her speeches.

00:38:37

Yeah, she's very soft-spoken. She's not known for yelling that much, which a lot of girls love to yell in tennis. But at the end, Serana loses, comes up to the net, and an aggressive... The handshake is a whole thing.

00:38:55

Okay, I saw that. Then did Naomi say, What was that for?

00:39:00

Yeah. So Naomi is, again, showing that Naomi is innocent. Naomi doesn't even know that she pissed her off and what she did. Okay, when you come to the net, if you don't like the girl, you do literally a limp, barely touch. That's how you... Because you have to shake their hand after. And if you like them, you give them a hug. And if it's just a normal match, whatever, you just shake it.

00:39:22

It's in the rule book that you must shake hands after.

00:39:26

You have to shake hands after. Which me saying this out loud, I've never thought of before. But imagine after fighting with someone, you have to shake their hand regardless of what happens. You could be 13 years old. I was crying the whole match, and then I have to go shake their hand.

00:39:41

I guess it's like when... But do they do this in professional- It's like after chess.

00:39:46

It's like if you play chess.

00:39:47

No, I was going to say after baseball, when they get in a line and they go down there like, Okay, get it. Yes, they hit their hands. Do they do that in professional?

00:39:54

Yeah, they do. They do. It's basically like, End of mad, shake hand. If you're really mad, you shake their hand. But Serana comes in and does a whole pushes her thing. And Naomi's literally like, What are you talking about?

00:40:09

I saw the video and she was like, What was that for?

00:40:12

And I guess she figures it out. But then Naomi, then a interviewer comes up to you in that moment when you know you're fucking hot. You just got assaulted. You realize someone is basically saying- Hates you. Hates you. And she's processing it. And Naomi, it was the first time she ever got a little sassy. And she was like, I don't know if it was my last Australian open, I'd be mad, too. And it was like, she's basically saying, your career's done, bitch.

00:40:42

Sorry, I got a text message.

00:40:45

I was like, That was the punchline. I was like, the whole story was for that moment. Well, share it with the class. Wait, Naomi.

00:40:57

Share the text with the class. Naomi, it was actually from someone at the bank. It was like... Anytime I see the word fraud, I'm like, Oh, no. I become British. I don't know why.

00:41:10

It was a fraud alert. Okay, I respect that.

00:41:13

That is crazy.

00:41:14

If it was my last Australian Open, I'd be mad, too. Basically being like, This bitch is done. I'd be mad, too, if this is how you end. I'm sad for you. And then she ended it. She's so Gen Z. She was like, Bro. And she She never says, Bro. She was like, Bro. She never says, Bro. She was so- She was honestly chill out. Talking to her friends. She was like, Bro, what? They're always so robotic because they're all sponsored by Rolex. Tennis, you have to be really gentlemanly and chic. No, tennis is so chic. Anyway, but also it was actually a day in the life of a tennis player. This shit happens all the time, and people don't really know the nuances, so No one's freaking out. But basically, they got heated, and that's what happened. Heated rivalry.

00:42:06

This was a legit sports podcast today.

00:42:11

No, I know. Also, some people will message me and be like, Hey, can you discuss this sports stuff? People are getting into it. They really are.

00:42:18

Oh, because tennis has such... I just keep using this word, but it really does have such nuances, especially because I really feel like tennis is the only sport, even more so than golf, where people watch the women just as much, if not more than the men. Do you know what I mean? They're in the same places. They're at the same tournament. So it is very interesting.

00:42:43

When I was little and I saw Serena Williams, I was like, That's what I want to do. Because that was a woman getting as much or more respect than the men. And I was like, Oh, shit. I like that power. I like that feeling.

00:42:56

I hate to revert back to my reality TV roots, But all I can think of is, they all must sleep with each other, and they all must get into fights. And there must be such good gossip in there.

00:43:14

There's also a locker Locker Room. So after they play, they have to go in the locker room together. Yeah, they're not just walking home. They have to go to the locker room. There's a players lounge. There's a gym.

00:43:25

Wait, why did I think it was everyone has their own green room type situation? Because it's an individual sport.

00:43:32

It's Love Island. Wimbledon. There's a Wimbledon. It's a city where everyone just stays during the tournament. But the funny thing is the girls, they don't They're not friends with each other, really. There is a podcast that I will recommend, If You Love Tennis, called The Players Box with my friend Jessie Pagula. Wait.

00:43:54

Very cute name.

00:43:55

Madison Keyes, Jennifer braided, and Desiree Krazic. I think I pronounced her last name right, but she's incredible. They're all incredible. Anyway, so watch that. Really just some positive news.

00:44:10

Yeah.

00:44:11

Fetty Wap is back.

00:44:12

No, and he looks healthy.

00:44:17

Wait, he does. He looks strong. He was lifting. Not to talk about a man's body, but he looks good.

00:44:25

Not to sexualize Fetty Wap, but I could not help but think, Are you eating good in jail? Were you eating?

00:44:33

It's like Chapelle, how he went from so skinny to one day. I'm like, he could carry me. He could pick me up. Completely body sheaths changed.

00:44:43

You want to know what was so wholesome about Fetty Wap? He genuinely thought that we forgot about him. And it's like, no, no, we've just been holding out.

00:44:52

I thought about him every day. I don't even know what he did. And to be honest, I don't care because he brought so much joy to my life. I can separate the artist from the art.

00:45:00

I actually have no idea what he did.

00:45:01

I think it was minor drug-related.

00:45:05

If I had a nickel.

00:45:07

Yeah, no one was murdered. Well, I'll look into it later. I put on Trap Queen yesterday before my show, and I was like, That was the most beautiful time. And then this is what it's like to be married to me. Des was falling asleep last night. Everything was peaceful, and he just gets a text from me being like, Am I your Trap Queen? And he's like, What? And I'm like, Am I your trap queen? And he's like, Lose my number. I can't deal with this right now. I'm literally falling asleep. And I'm like, So you hate me? Okay. So you don't even... So if I'm not your trap queen, what am I?

00:45:38

What am I to you? You are like...

00:45:42

Annoying.

00:45:45

You are how I feel when someone Gen Z texted me the most insane text, and they're being dead serious, and all I want to text back is, There's no way you're fucking serious right now texting me that. I think that's a good way to end this week.

00:46:00

Oh, my God. Yes. Paige needs to... Now that I'm awake, so early.

00:46:04

Now that Hailey is awake, I have to jump on a flight.

00:46:06

You have to go. I love you so much.

00:46:09

I'm so excited to see you in person.

00:46:11

I know.

00:46:12

I miss you. I miss you so much.

00:46:14

It's been forever. I need to hug. We need to be in the studio. I'm on a high for my coffee, but I do have to let you know when I get down from the high, I will be mad at you about this. I love you guys so much. No, this was a drunken episode. Thank you for giggling. We'll talk to you later. Bye.
