Speaker 2 (0:02) Sup, gigglers. Speaker 1 (0:03) Gary, fix the Wi-Fi. Speaker 2 (0:05) Manifest that shit. Speaker 1 (0:06) We can't be managed. I mean, the day just got away from me. Speaker 2 (0:15) Hello, my guava gigglers. Good news. It's a morning pod. So shit's about to go down. Are you texting? Speaker 2 (0:26) By the way, she's been yelling at me all morning. She's like, I want to record a Hannah. She literally wrote to the group text, Hannah. Like you yelled at me in the group. Hannah. It was 10. Oh, one. She wrote Hannah. Speaker 3 (0:39) Now you're Speaker 2 (0:39) texting when we start. I just have so much going on. Oh, yeah. You do have a photo shoot tonight. And Speaker 3 (0:45) I took a red eye on Saturday night. So like I'm I'm messed. I'll never recover until next weekend. If Speaker 2 (0:52) I do a red eye, I'm out for the month. Speaker 3 (0:53) No, I literally. Can I tell you? I haven't had it. No, I can't say that because I just got back from Newport. Speaker 2 (1:00) I know, but you've been going too hard and I know I've been worried about you and I've been I'm your only real friend. I'm the only one who's been bringing it up to you. Everyone else is yes people around you. Guys, Speaker 3 (1:10) everyone's like, yeah, add another day. Add another day. Hannah's like, take a nap. I'm like, she's the only one that cares about me. I'm the only one. Speaker 2 (1:17) Because I know you love glam, but too many consecutive days of glam is not good for your pores. No, Speaker 3 (1:22) and then I'm so excited to get microneedling on Saturday. I accidentally get, Hannah FaceTimes me yesterday to bring up something serious. I go, I'm kind of dealing with a lot already. do you want to say to me i Speaker 2 (1:36) love how we tell stories to the gigglers like we're at dinner and there's a friend i'm like tell them about tell them about no i'm so excited to facetime you on a sunday like that's the best time to facetime and you're in a mood i'm in your nose is red and you go i can't even think right now i can't riff with you i couldn't even riff you couldn't riff that's how i knew it was bad you couldn't riff No. But then I warmed you up and you were fine. But at first you had that like when a kid falls and looks at you like. Speaker 3 (2:08) What's my next move? You're like, should I cry? And I'm like, it's OK. It's OK. It's OK. Because there's certain things about my personality that are that I can count on no matter what. And it's like I never lose things. I'm always on time. Like so when one of those things goes awry. Speaker 2 (2:30) What is that life like? You never lose things. I've never found anything. Speaker 3 (2:36) You know, my dad called me the other day because he's, I have his personality, which like, I just, I can't believe it. He calls me the other day. He's like, you're never gonna guess. I freaking lost something. I go, come on. Speaker 3 (2:52) I go, come on, dad. He goes, I know. And you're the only person that gets as upset as I do. I go, I can't have that. You got to find it. Speaker 2 (3:03) That's like when my mom or does like take the wrong direction somewhere because they're my directional Sherpas. Yeah. Speaker 3 (3:08) So when they take a Speaker 2 (3:09) wrong turn, I'm like, I'm what am I supposed to do now? You're like, well, I don't know. OK, so Saturday. First of all, I was Speaker 3 (3:17) in Speaker 2 (3:17) Newport. The Southern California girls. Speaker 3 (3:20) Were you going to tell the rest of the country that you're living like that? Like it's not a real place. It's like whatever. So I'm like out and about like walking around seeing the sights. I put sunscreen on and then I get back to the hotel and I'm like I have a sunburn. And like how could I have possibly gotten a sunburn? I prepare for things like this. So Speaker 2 (3:38) anyway I'm like maybe it'll get better. So I like doing all my face masks. Speaker 3 (3:42) I'm getting aloe gel. I'm putting it on. I'm like I have to get microneedling on Tuesday. They're not going to let me get it. Sure enough, I text the girl and I'm like, I have a little sunburn. She goes, I'll see you in two weeks. Like, we can't do this. And I waited all summer to get my last microneedling. Speaker 2 (3:56) I'm crazy. We're doing a callback only three minutes in, but good. You have too many yes people in your life. Someone needs to say no to you. Speaker 3 (4:05) No, and where I go to get my microneedling, they just text me, which is just, like, nice. Like, don't send me an email. It's getting lost in the abyss. So I text her, and I'm like, hey, I'm having an emergency. I have a sunburn. She was like, yeah, it's best if we do it in, like, a week or two. Speaker 2 (4:19) Well, that's why I haven't done it, because I'm playing paddle. I'm playing tennis. I'm going on mental health walks. Speaker 3 (4:25) There's a lot of people I don't listen to in the world. A plastic surgeon is, I'm listening to her. If she says no, let's wait, it could damage your skin, I'm waiting. Speaker 2 (4:35) One thing that I don't think people know is that I have my own friendship. With who? With your boyfriend. Oh. Speaker 3 (4:43) Is that a friendship? Or is it like a... We're best friends. Speaker 2 (4:48) It's basically all the sides that you don't have. that i'm like we connect Speaker 3 (4:54) i become a full person when he's around that like you're interested in no Speaker 2 (4:59) we bond in the way you should we bond over that we both are obsessed with you so he will text me things about you that he knows will make me laugh so last night at 11 p.m he goes pages up for a midnight snack um i can hear the ruffles in the kitchen Speaker 2 (5:21) Okay, you can now speak your truth. Were you scurrying around in the kitchen? Oh, you're interested in what my midnight snack situation is? Speaker 3 (5:29) Yes. Speaker 2 (5:30) Okay, you've come to the right home. Come on, Martha Stewart. Tell us what you were doing. First Speaker 3 (5:35) of all, my parents called me Sunday morning when I get home from the red eye. And I was like, oh my God, I'm so happy. My flight landed because I'm making buffalo chicken wing dip today in my crock pot. My dad called me trash. Speaker 2 (5:53) Also, if we still had Facebook, that would have been your Facebook status. Making buffalo chicken dip today. Absolutely. That was your old personality yesterday. Speaker 3 (6:04) My Speaker 2 (6:04) dad Speaker 3 (6:04) was like, you're trash. Speaker 2 (6:07) Well, Italians are like. Make a bolognese. Speaker 3 (6:12) Yeah, Speaker 2 (6:12) make a bolognese. It's Sunday sauce. He actually said that to me. He goes. Speaker 3 (6:16) Buffalo chicken wing dip? Your mother's over here making a bolognese. What the hell are you doing over there? Speaker 2 (6:23) So Speaker 3 (6:23) whatever, I was shamed into my buffalo chicken wing dip. Then I made cupcakes. You made sprinkle cupcakes. You made aesthetic cupcakes. And then I didn't really eat because I filled up on buffalo chicken wing dip. So at like 11 p.m. I was like, oh, I have a hankering for some like carbs. So my midnight snack is usually one of three things. quesadilla in the microwave Speaker 2 (6:47) always Speaker 3 (6:48) oh Speaker 2 (6:48) my god whoa you're starting hard yeah Speaker 3 (6:53) quesadilla in the microwave i had sour cream and salsa so it's basically like you're like uh what it's fucking Speaker 2 (7:00) mushroom star like this is Speaker 3 (7:01) what i waited to be an adult for yeah Speaker 2 (7:03) toast Speaker 3 (7:04) with butter and jelly and i had some like italian hard rolls so that was really up there Those were the two contenders. And then my third is always my fallback cereal. Last night I chose to have a quesadilla in the microwave with a ginger Speaker 2 (7:20) ale. Oh my God. Love. That reminds me at University of Wisconsin, we go badgers. We took wheat thins. So it's already like sweet and like heavy. And then we take cheese curds, which is like a Wisconsin thing. How Speaker 3 (7:40) did you not choke? Well, then you melt it over the wheat thins. Speaker 2 (7:44) And it was the most like, Speaker 3 (7:46) oh my Speaker 2 (7:47) God. It was like nachos for a college kid. It was like nachos, Midwest nachos. It was so good. Also not to. We know this is the comedy pod. We want to forget about all the horrible things of reality, but we just have to say, fuck the Cornell 7. The Speaker 3 (8:05) fact that you can see the text message and read the text message is so... Chilling. It's actually bone chilling. Speaker 2 (8:14) And the casualness of, like, this wasn't the first time. Speaker 3 (8:20) This is what I mean when I talk about like Gen Z, which I think they're younger than Gen Z. But like when I say Gen Z, I mean everyone younger than me. Speaker 2 (8:30) But Speaker 3 (8:30) whatever age they are, this is what I mean when I'm talking about the younger boys are seeing so much online. That's like Speaker 2 (8:39) so... I saw a tweet that was, again, bone chilling that like people care more about these men's... futures than this current girl's life right Speaker 3 (8:52) like women are expected to like live with trauma but men are not like live with the trauma that they caused her but men are not expected to like have an inconvenience in their like future also Speaker 2 (9:05) i would argue that we should stunt their future because i don't want these creepy sick dudes to then be in places of power and making decisions and inflicting it on more women like it's the kind of thing where there's a reason People should get in trouble when they do something wrong. And then you wonder like, how did this even happen that someone was like, oh, these guys should just write an essay because they they clearly were confused and need to write it out. It was just four old white dudes sitting in a room being like, well, seven men's lives we can't affect. What if I told you that that's what these men need? Like this is. unsafe for them to just run free now they realize there's no repercussions like Speaker 3 (9:52) i can't wait for you to have a daughter to realize that women are humans here's the other thing like they were in college which that's young as fuck college is young as fuck where the hell did you learn that In the, like, four years that you were on Earth before you went to college, like, when was that in your brain that, like, if a girl is passed out, you could just sleep with her and then tell your friends? Speaker 2 (10:19) Someone also told me at a very young age that, like, and trigger warning, I'm going to use the word, rape is violence. It's Speaker 3 (10:28) a Speaker 2 (10:28) crime. Like, the fact that they're 1920 and, like, no one was in jail, like, it's... It's a salt. Yeah. I also feel like, like when my little cousin told me she was going to college. I immediately felt scared for her. Yeah. So I'm looking at her and she's been in her parents' house and being taken care of. And I know for a fact there's a very high percent chance that when she leaves to college, something bad is going to happen. And I also want to add to it. And it's this situation as well. It's mostly someone, you know, this was a guy friend that she texted. Yeah. Speaker 3 (11:11) In Speaker 2 (11:11) situations I've had in college, it's. It's a friend group. It's not a, oh, someone kidnapped me in a corner and attacked me. No, these are people that you think you trust that then take advantage of you and then are like, whoopsie, miscommunication. It's disgusting. It's like, Speaker 3 (11:30) I feel so bad for her. She left Speaker 2 (11:32) school. Like, I can't even imagine. I Speaker 3 (11:36) think one of the scariest part too is that because it was in like a group chat. There wasn't one guy that texted back and was like, dude, what? like what the fuck are you talking about i Speaker 2 (11:49) also would argue it's kind of weird to say like you have to educate your sons not to take advantage of women like shouldn't that be innate like as good people you don't do that yeah Speaker 3 (12:01) that's Speaker 2 (12:01) like don't punch kittens educate Speaker 3 (12:04) them don't punch a kitten no shit i'm not gonna punch a kitten right i hate to reduce it to that but it's like okay kids didn't you inherently know you don't kill animals Speaker 2 (12:15) So why would you think you could go to college and just like assault a girl? But that's why it's good people are speaking up now because I hope there's tons of boys and men having this conversation. Speaker 3 (12:28) There is something Speaker 2 (12:29) about like feminism is not being like fuck all the men. Feminism is hating Speaker 3 (12:34) misogyny. I saw a quote that was really good and it was like it said feminists are women who hate what men have done to them. And men who hate feminists hate women for what women haven't done for them. Speaker 2 (12:48) Mmm. Speaker 2 (12:50) Like, I don't hate Speaker 3 (12:52) men. I hate what men can do. And Speaker 2 (12:56) real men are feminists. Yeah, real men don't get offended when you're like, I hate all men. Speaker 3 (13:02) Like, they're like, yeah, you hate like loser guys. I'm like, yes. So anyway. Sorry, Kitty just put her paw up to me. Like, when you don't see your cat's body and you just see a paw, it's like to coming toward you. I can't explain that feeling. Speaker 2 (13:19) Anyway, no smooth transition, but I watched the VMAs. Did you? Sundays have become my day where, like, I... Can Speaker 3 (13:28) I have a day? Can I have
