I mean, the day just got away from me. What's up, my gobsmacker gigglers?
cute i don't know that sounds like a weird sex move makes me think of charlie and the chocolate factor true true oh my gosh we just dropped two more live theater shows in seattle and san francisco go to our instagram in the bio you can get tickets they are moving fast um we love you guys so much and we can't wait to see you all in the flesh i had a chaotic morning
yeah what happened okay so we were supposed to record this morning i woke up at well we're supposed to record at 11 10 30 a.m i literally woke up at 10 45 and i was like this bitch and then hannah texted me and was like sorry i've had a crazy morning let's record tonight and i was like amazing went right back to bed oh yeah so what happened des adorably planned our first ever ireland trip
And it's tonight, 9 p.m. We have a flight to leave for a week. And then we might try to go skiing for the first time. We've been so excited for this. I get a call Saturday that I potentially like have an offer, a soft offer for this like project in L.A. That would take a week. A flaccid offer. A flaccid fucking offer. A lukewarm offer. Yeah.
for a good opportunity in la that is the week right in the middle that i was supposed to be isn't that always the way and this is not the first time this has happened to us so i'm like fuck i have to tell des that i'm just ruining everything so i'm like hey and he was very supportive and he was like you know what don't worry i'll fix it but they said monday we might find out
But we haven't found out yet. But he was like, you know what? You're not going to Ireland. There's an eight hour time difference between Ireland and L.A. You're going to be here for four days. It's not worth it. Like, we'll do it another time. And he's like, you should cancel the flight. And this is like 10 a.m. And, you know, I'm not in my right mind at 10 a.m. Who is insane? He even speaking to me at 10 a.m. Yeah. And that you were computing it in your brain. I wasn't. Yeah.
He had booked the flights because he's really good with like Delta, Delta One, Delta SkyMiles, Silver, whatever, CPGs. Wait, can we just go on a tangent for a little second about men and any flying app? Men and any acronyms.
Someone once asked me what my MQMs were on my Delta app and I said, don't ever talk to me again. Like, are you asking for my breast size? Like, what are you talking about? Yeah, I was like, how rude. How rude of you to just ask me about my MQMs. I'm a C during my period. I'm a B when I'm not. Leave me alone. He goes, OK, you have to cancel the flight. He's like, I did all this stuff. Can you just cancel the flight? I was like, easy peasy lemon squeezy.
He goes, but we can't do... I couldn't figure out how to do it on the app. You have to call someone. And I go, okay, that's an issue. Because I don't... There's so many of these companies. You have to call... At this point, you'd just rather get on the flight. Yeah. At this point, fuck the gig. Even like someone's like, oh, I sent you mail. I'm like, if it's mail, I throw it away. Okay. I've also been getting someone else's mail and I've just been throwing it away. I thought you were like, I've been opening it and it's wild. No, because...
Here's the other thing. Opening someone else's mail, how would they know that it's a felony? How would you know? Yeah. I mean, add that to your list of reasons you're going to be arrested someday. But anyway, I...
Try to call and immediately they're like, there's a 45 minute wait. And you know that we're recording Giggly Squad at 1045 and you know I have priorities. So I said, fuck this, hung up. And he went out to walk the dog thinking I'm like being a good little girl waiting. But they can call you back. Yeah, but I'm not having them call me back during Giggly Squad. Oh, right, right, right. That was my one hour of glee during the week. Yeah. Entire week I wait for this moment.
Yeah. Besides my therapy. That's nice too. Thank you. It's my therapist. So many things. So I think I'm savvier than I am. And I'm like, he doesn't know how the Delta app works. I'm going to go into the Delta app and figure out how to cancel my flight. So I press modify and it was like, no, you need to call someone. I said, fuck that. I scroll the bottom. It says cancel. And I'm like, so proud of me. I figured it out. I press cancel.
And then I was like, hmm. And it says like continue. And I click continue. And suddenly everything is canceled. Gone. My heart starts beating. And I look at it. I canceled his flight too. Oh, he's still going. He's still going.
Okay. And because he has some gigs in Ireland and to get his flight, he had to like give some certificate of something. Like basically it took him hours to do this. So my heart starts beating and I'm not, I was, I was scared. Yeah. No, that's terrifying. My heart starts beating. You immediately go into a cold sweat. I go into a cold sweat and I hear him like come back from walking the dog and he's like, how's it going? And I go, okay.
Can you check your email? I think I canceled the flight. He's like, oh my God. Yeah. Because, okay, so then... Because not only did I ruin the vacation he planned, but now I'm ruining his trip.
And now you're sitting waiting for that phone call for 45 minutes. So I did what a mature person does because he was like in shock. And I was like, I start crying and I leave. Like I literally had to leave the house. I jumped on a flight somewhere else. But I like went for a walk and I immediately start like crying.
trying to get delta over text and i'm like it's an emergency my fiance is going to kill me i'm getting a divorce i need you to respond like i was like one of those crazy people on you can text them so apparently you can and someone's like hi it's sheila how can i help you and i'm like literally read the last it's a cucumber i was rage texting sheila i was like sheila get your shit together right
But again This is not a drill Sheila This is code blue And we have Work to do I'm like girl to girl We fucked up We fucked up Sheila get it together
So I'm rage texting. I'm Tequila Katie texting Sheila. Yeah. Yep. I wasn't threatening her, but I was like, this is serious. I don't care who else you're talking to. Sheila is really Sheena. Finally, she's like, okay, I can get you a flight. But again, I don't have Des's information. I'm just trying to get a flight. So I run back to the house and I'm like, I'm getting a flight. I'm getting a flight. And he's like, let me see. And he goes, you're about to buy another flight for yourself. Stop it. Just stop. Hannah.
Are you okay? Because you know when you're anxious, I'm the person who when I'm anxious, like let's say you realize you're on the wrong subway, I'll get off and get on another wrong subway and make it worse. Like once I start spiraling, I just can't. Yeah.
So he had like a come to Jesus and he was like, I'm not mad at you, but you are incapable of admin. And I now need to know that I have to handle this forever. And we learned a lesson here. And I'm sorry for getting upset. But that's when I texted you and I'm like, I'm not in the right frame of mind to record Kiki Squad right now because I'm stupid.
I was legit too stupid to record Giggly Squad this morning. Oh, my God. Okay. Okay. So we know that you'll never be someone's personal assistant. Ever. And then when... Have you ever, like, booked a flight for a.m. when it's supposed to be p.m.? Like, I do that shit every day. I was an assistant at one point in my life, and I booked my boss...
On the wrong flight. And she was like, we don't live in Texas. So... It's quite easy to do. But while I was having a chaotic mental breakdown, you were having a jolly day. Jolly. I went back to sleep for 30 minutes. Had some morning sex. Oh. What about my day? You know, it was like, oh, I love when we do nighttime. I...
I got one of the best text messages I've ever received this week. And that text message said, hey, should we just go to Miami for my bachelorette party? And tears of joy filled up my eyes. And I thought to myself, how did I manifest this? You did manifest it. I did. You did. I did. Because inside, and I didn't tell you I was manifesting it, but inside I was like,
a petting zoo how about a Miami boat day how about we go to a strip club and eat steaks I was um breadcrumbing all my friends like throwing stuff out there Sierra was the only one who was down to do a petting zoo but yeah your reaction when I like threw Miami out there was next level where I was like oh that's pure joy coming from her and she doesn't get happy about truly anything and
I made a Pinterest board. I'm starting an Excel spreadsheet. I need everyone's names, their hat size. But also this is not Paige. Paige is the friend that like she might show up. She might not. She rolls in. Yeah. When I got that text message, I immediately texted one of my girlfriends that lives in Miami and was like, all the best hotels right now need them. And she sent me a full list. And I was like, great. Thank you. So she basically...
goes, I can help you plan anything you want. I've never heard that from Paige. She's never planned anything. Usually I'm like, just tell me what time to be there and when to show up. Cool. But I was...
I'm taking point on this. She wrote, I think you're going to be in charge of nightlife slash being sluts. She's the chief slut officer. I hear. You're just going to be yelling at everyone to just get their slut together. And then you go. Hike that skirt up. You go, well, this escalated quickly. Yeah. No, literally, that was my text back. I was like, this escalated very quickly. Then I sent a GIF of Nicole Richie getting arrested on Simple Life saying loves it.
I can't wait to be so drunk on the beach and be Snooki and just be like, where's the beach?
And then you wrote, I'll put a list of hotels together and club experiences. I don't know. I don't even know what that means. Club experiences. What is that? As I was typing it, I was like, who am I? I meant like I was going to give you clubs and then what each club vibe was. So that like if you wanted to go full whore, we could go bull whore. Yeah. Or if you wanted like a loungy vibe with like some sparklers, we could go loungy. But like, I feel like.
We're doing it. Then you write... This is when I knew Paige was out of her sane mind. She wrote, I might make an Excel spreadsheet sheet. You wrote Excel spreadsheet sheet. Well, because I want... I need everyone's name, everyone's sizes...
I need a lot of things. I need their email addresses. There's a lot of things that go into planning a bachelorette party that I quickly realized. But this is the thing. Do you really want to be the point person or do you want to be the nightlife club person? Because I will give you all that power. I just don't want to feel like I'm making you... Because I have other people who are like, oh, I'll do it. Actually, a lot of my friends are... I think because they know that I'm incapable and we know what happens when I'm in charge of admin. All of my friends have been like,
We'll do it, Hannah. Look, my PowerPoint presentation is halfway done on, like, why we should do the things that I want to do. And I also have aesthetic vibes for each night. Like...
Like the first night is like we have something matching on, but it's like hot matching. And then like if we do a boat day, that's when we do like matching colored bikinis because like pictures. And if anyone is against this in the group email. They might get cut.
They might get caught. It's like, oh, we actually can't accommodate you. You're going to text me on the side and be like, hey, I know you've been friends with her for 12 years, but her note on section two, PowerPoint B, was unacceptable and I'm not going to be able to work in this environment. But also, yeah, I'm not doing fucking sashes. I'm not doing the script. And for people who are listening, it's because you guys did it already that I don't want to do it. You're not choogy because you did it. It's because you've done it so well that I'm like, we can't.
I want to have it. And also, it's such a good group of women, Paige. It is such a good group. I know. I can't wait. Oh, my God. I forgot one person. I forgot one person. But no, it's okay. Just create a whole new thread like we're doing it for the first time. Oh, my God. I feel bad. Anyway. I also feel like we need like a Mexican themed night one night because you love Mexican food. Because you love having diarrhea. Yeah.
I want you to actually shit yourself on the dance floor. How do you feel about like a stripper pole class? Is that choogy? Like I could see you quitting two minutes in and that makes me laugh.
If they could come to, okay, that depends on what hotel we stay at and like what the suite situation is. Like if we can all go into your like suite and do a pole class, I would be down with that. But like if we have to wake up on like a Saturday morning and go do a super bowl throw up. No, no morning shit for sure. Or it could be fun if we like all learned a hip hop dance and then performed it and made a music video. I'd rather go to the petting sale. Yeah.
I feel so, you know how like you never have all your friends together. I feel like it's that power puff, like light,
fire air water and like all my most powerful friends are coming together and i'm like literally scared but i'm like we have to like fight the patriarchy like what are we gonna do once we're all in the same room together like crazy shit we could do we could do a music video on the boat yeah also like my warning you my friend becca from college is so funny she gets all excited and she's like
oh my friend is learning how to play piano I'm gonna learn to play saxophone so by the time it's your bachelorette party I can run around with a saxophone and I was like perfect I've never heard anything right no like perfect that's oh my god I can check that off my list of finding a saxophone player I was like can you put the lights around it like they do at the clubs and she's like done so if you see us in Miami we are making a music video
be in it if you want i could also see us planning too hard and then we get hung over after the first night and then every plan gets canceled i could see that also like me just in my room getting another ivy which i think will be mandatory saturday morning ivy saturday to go on the boat my mom was very surprised she thought it wasn't like me and i was like no
Do you know what it was? I was depressed. When you're depressed, you don't want to do anything. Might as well go all the way to Miami and force people to do it for you. It's not like you, but I also feel like
So far in your wedding aesthetic, you've ended up liking things that you never thought you would like. So far, I said I wanted a pearl. I went with a diamond. I said I wanted... You almost got two diamonds. Almost two. I wanted a garage wedding. Now I'm on the Pacific... Not Pacific Ocean. Atlantic. You're literally getting married at like a yacht club. I mean, it's... You guys...
Yeah. Don't don't fucking act like you know me. I don't know me. There will be a cowgirl hat situation. One. Yeah. At one point. We could pretend we're in different places like we just pretend we're in Nashville one night. We just keep saying Nash Vegas everywhere. Nashville.
Nash Vegas. And I was like, this is Miami. And we're like, love Nash Vegas. I'm going to hire a blimp to do something. This is why you shouldn't have money. This is why. No, I can't. I can't. This is why God has kept me humble. Because I would have outlandish things. I would have literally a lion. But how do you actually feel about one night? We all get wigs. And I hate wigs. So we have to make sure it's one that I feel comfortable in.
Because I know you naturally, like, you know, some people are happy. People like you're wearing a hat right now and you look like a sexy, mysterious video producer. I wear a hat. I look like a kid in Little League who just got beat up. So when it comes to wigs, I always feel stupid. But we're all going to get our wigs and we're all going to come up with new identities and accents. And the accent, you don't have to nail it. It's actually funnier when you're bad at the accent. And then we are going to go out. We're going to like talk to everyone.
in i want to be russian yeah i think i'm gonna be i'm gonna be like i'm gonna be like british but like from the countryside you know yeah trashy yeah like posh is i've never been there i don't even watch love island because i don't have cable i'm playing with goats i just like goats where's the petting zoo yeah something i love that i love that i'm gonna be a russian spy your name will be sylvanas
Yeah, definitely. What's like a not posh name in England? Pam? No, Pam is your name. My name is... A not posh name in England? My name is Linda. No, I feel like those aren't British names. Something like Suki. Suki. Is that a British name? My name is Ringo. Ringo.
We're going to be banned from Miami. And England. Any hotel. We should pick a hotel that we don't really care about because we will be asked to leave and never come back. So it has to be one that I don't want to frequent. And I also think I just want to do two nights because I go hard. Like when I'm on, I'm on. And I can only be on for about a night and a half. Yeah. So this is good. Yeah. That's why I think like a really dope club night is...
I feel like Craig just left. He escaped. I can hear the garage door. He's like, she's busy. I'm leaving. And then I feel like I want to do a boat day. I just feel like nobody is ever on a boat getting drunk with their friends and has the thought like, I wish I was somewhere else. Well, can I tell you something? Also, I've never been on a bachelorette party. I know. Yeah.
Here's the other thing in Miami. You can literally go. I've never been to Vegas, but you can go to Miami and wear a bathing suit. Everywhere. To dinner. Yeah. And no one says anything. Like, it's not the fashion capital of the world. And, like, people do dress good in Miami. But what I enjoy is that they dress up. Like, their full hair extension. Oh, I'm going to bring my ponytail hair extension. Yeah.
I saw people are dying their hair pink. Like J-Lo did it. And then some other people started doing it. And like it's Art Basel right now in Miami, which if I used to not be at that, it was like social suicide for myself. And then this year I was just like, oh my God, I am an adult because I actively chose not to go. And so I'm... But usually I love like a Miami trip. And this is...
I'm putting all my energy into this. I'm more like an art oregano kind of girl. But anyway, wait, what did you watch my story the other day? Because I learned that Ben Affleck is six five. Yeah, I knew that. You did know that. Yeah. Okay. Wow. I have a follow up. You knew that and then still thought that they were a fake couple.
His height has nothing to do with whether we trust him or not. Short and tall guys lie. Right. I think J-Lo is a catch. And I think Ben Affleck is a catch. I have a celebrity crush on Ben Affleck. Maybe subconsciously I'm jealous or something. But I just think that it's been pushed in our face more than like reality TV couples. Yeah.
I just feel like, oh my God, did you see Raquel and James Enby? That was like my only note for today. That was wild. I kept thinking it was like a...
wait i have more thoughts yeah we have so you guys we have so many thoughts and i can't categorize and then you forget all of them okay re ben and jen yes i just think it makes a lot more sense on like why she would go back oh yeah ben is hot ben has a great personality does have you know some skeletons in his closet some ex-wives children and a phoenix back tattoo but yeah the back tattoo is a bit much but there's laser for that i
I can totally see them together. I just don't like how they're forcing it so much in the public eye. I don't think that's healthy for a relationship necessarily. I get that. I get that. But speaking of relationships in the public eye, we have to discuss Raquel and James because I don't care how you feel about them. Vanderpump, this relationship has been around... It created... It's not about the pasta, this relationship. It's been a part of all our lives. I will say...
I have not watched any Vanderpump this year. I just...
Same. I just can't get into it. So I don't know like the storyline. Like now I, this actually has making me want to go back and actually watch the whole season. But we always talk about people that put like crazy captions for like their significant other. But we never talk about people posting about a breakup in a caption. And do you think as a public couple, you, you,
Oh, that to people. Yeah. Like, do you have to. Oh, my God. Tell people you broke up and like, why? And is it different because they're on reality TV and it's not like an actor? That is so many good questions. First of all, the.
The first time I kind of dated a guy in the public eye was a couple years ago and he kept me a secret cause he had like crazy fans or something. And I kept him a secret cause deep down I knew that something was off even though I wanted it to work and I didn't, I never posted him cause I didn't want to have to explain when it didn't. So breaking up was actually so much easier cause I didn't have to think about the public eye. Um,
And it wouldn't have even been that many people, but it's basically like that couple on Facebook that posts all the time and then they go silent. Yeah. And they're also controlling their narrative. Instead of someone else being like, Raquel and James are out, this is what they said. They say, please respect our privacy, which means we're not answering any more questions about it. This is what happened. Right. And they get to come up with a story. But that's a problem with a public relationship. When you break up, either they control the narrative or you.
Someone's something's gonna be said it's never like a secret. You don't just one day appear with someone else I think when I broke up my when my last relationship ended I didn't even have a thought that was like should I put up an Instagram story that we broke up like that didn't Oh, yeah, did you never have to do anything? I never addressed it because I just I
I addressed it months later saying like we're not together. But like you could tell from our Instagrams we weren't together. But there was really no like, okay, let's just say like Craig and I break up. I don't feel like I will ever, would ever say something on Instagram. And that's just my gut feeling. Because like when Perry and I did break up, I never was like, I'm going to write this.
I'm going to write a paragraph and post it on my story with a black background. Because you and Perry were... You were public, like, you posted photos with him. But imagine, like, for so many years, you're posting about your relationship as if everyone's in it with you. Like, so you almost feel indebted that, like, all these people who have been through so much with your relationship, it's, like, a nice thing to be like, hey, guys...
I've been through all this with you and I'm just going to give you the respect to tell you we're not doing this anymore. Yeah. Like my thing, like if Des and I ever broke up, the incredible response we got when we got engaged of like, it was insane. I never even knew people loved love that much. Right. That alone makes me feel like if we broke up, I'd have to be like, Hey guys,
So funny, so weird, so crazy. As a people pleaser, like even doing a wedding, like I forbid you get divorced. Like I feel so terrible just for that. Not even myself, just for the people. But it's a party, whatever. If you and Des ever get divorced, I want you to tell people on Instagram by just posting the video of Kim Kardashian. That's like, don't you think I'm sad?

with their matching lounge fold over pant. i'm absolutely obsessed. not only do i wear it inside, but i actually wear it to travel a lot too. i noticed in my drawer the other day that basically all my bras and underwears are skims, but also now all of my t-shirts and my loungewear is skims. i've pretty much cleared out all my lounge sets after i moved. i just like got rid of everything. i was like i don't need all of these random sweatpants and sweatshirts.
and really replaced everything with Skims because I know it's always going to look good, and I know it always feels amazing.

I just did an interview with this girl Lauren DIY who oh yeah yeah how is that she had so crazy someone was just talking about her not you but someone else she's like host craftopia she's like a DIY enthusiast who got big and then started to have a YouTube relationship with another YouTuber which turns out is arguably as fucked up as reality TV where
you control your narrative more, but they have their own narrative too that they're doing on their channel. So when you break up as YouTubers, you have to do a breakup video where you both sit down together after the breakup and cry and tell everyone what happened. And she was like,
I felt like I should do it because she's like, you know how editing works. We would do a day trip and we'd post all the cutest moments. And then people were legit like dying. Like, I can't believe in love if this couple didn't work out. And it's like, yeah, because you only saw the most beautiful moments. If you knew the truth of a relationship, you'd be like, yeah, that was going downhill from day two, you know? Okay. Here's how I feel about posting though. Like that type of video, like,
There are certain things that like, you know, happen in everyday life. Like every day, I'm probably going to wake up and like drink a coffee and then run to the bathroom. And that's my morning routine. You know that that's happening. Do,
Do I need to post that to tell you that I pee every single day? No. Obviously, every couple fights. Yes. Do I need to post that? You definitely don't need to post the details at all. I guess because they're YouTubers, like they felt. But also, they have to protect each other a little because they don't want the other one getting mad because they could say whatever. It's just a fucked up situation. But Raquel and James decided to both post...
the same paragraph with no and and shut off the comments what'd you think about that i thought i like i actually liked that they posted the same paragraph because it was like okay this is low-key like read up very cute oh my god that's the cutest breakup i've ever seen yeah i i just i i like that they posted the same paragraph i i that didn't bother me um
It was the timing. Like everything was so quick. It was like you saw it on the gossip like blogs that it was like they might have broken up. Oh, they broke up at the reunion. That's also no one's talking about that. That's why. Wait, they broke up at the reunion. Is that's what people were saying because they just filmed it. Well, this is what kind of upsets me because it has me thinking about relationships and being in the public eye and how they got engaged online.
And everything was good. And then their Vanderpump is airing.
And you know that causes drama. Like they're watching it and getting frustrated. And they're getting frustrated. It's possible the show was like the last straw. Because the airing of a show when you're in a relationship is brutal. Let's say the show is fine, but just having so many people in your DMs being like, oh, Raquel doesn't like you. Or like, oh, James is mistreating you. Or like the constant...
people just tearing apart your relationship and one thing might hit a sensitive part next thing you're fighting based on some random person's message there's a whole reddit thread and I know I shouldn't be on reddit but sometimes sometimes I get a real kick out of it
One time I went on Reddit and it was just like a whole thread of like people hating me. And I read them out loud to my brother. And we have never laughed harder in our lives because usually like the only person that makes fun of me in my life, like to me, is my brother. He's like, these people are good. Damn. I need to take some notes. No, literally. He was like, wow, I should have thought that one. I was wearing like a yellow outfit and someone called me like a yellow diaper baby. And I'm like,
There's probably so many people that are like DMing him and being like, she's the worst and DMing her and being like, he's the worst. And it's just unless you have your own opinion on what your relationship is. I mean, look, Craig and I talk about it all the time that like, yes, we are on reality TV together. Yes, we have to watch certain things that are uncomfortable. Yes, we'll have to do that for like a little bit.
But we always look at each other and say like, this is real life. And like, are you good? And we talk, that is, I think one of the number one things that's great about our relationship is we talk about everything to the point where I'm like, I didn't need to know that you slept with this girl five months before we met. You know, like I don't need to know everything. But I've done a lot of interviews with like bachelor couples and
And I'm like, how do you guys navigate when like your relationship is like liked by the media or like you're hot by the media versus when it's not or like when people don't care about you anymore because you have your real relationship and then you have how your relationship is being perceived by fans based on how it fits into the narrative of The Bachelor. So because sometimes like you're the it couple and then like a year later, there's another couple. And like, are you guys still as into each other?
um yeah even though your relationship might be the same but also your relationship stemmed from that energy of being an it couple with lights and cameras um and it's a wild fucking ride because it's hard to decipher in the beginning like is my stomach excited because of just us or is it like the this excitement that's surrounding what we are
So true. So fucking true. Like, okay, for my birthday, Craig didn't post an Instagram story. People lost it. And people were... Lost it like he murdered your dog. People were freaking out. And I, that whole day, didn't even really look at Instagram. Like, wasn't... Because I was flying to Charleston. I knew that we were, like, having my favorite, like, place for dinner. Like, I knew...
what I wanted to do on my exact birthday that day. And we were sitting on the couch and he was like, wait, are you mad I didn't post for your birthday? And I was like, we just had sex 5,000 times today. I'm like, it's fine. You didn't put up an Instagram story. But no one would get it. Can you look at your phone instead of me, please? Yeah, like it's just, it was like, I don't know. It's just so weird to date someone
in the public eye so I feel bad for her too because I also just feel like Raquel is genuinely really sweet like I've never met her in person but like just watching the show and like following her on Instagram I just feel like her energy is really good so I feel bad for her that she's going through you but you know what I break up I've met them both I've met James a bunch of times I met Raquel once and
And she was very, very nice. So charming and smiley. And James is a fucking character and I really like him. But I'm proud of them because I don't know the details, but I'm so proud of people who end engagements or end marriages. Like they should be so proud that they...
made a decision to make themselves happier. Because it's not a flex that you're staying in a relationship that you're not happy in. Just to say that you're in a relationship. And I want... And it seems like they both were unhappy. I mean, they were fucking struggling from the get-go to...
fit in with the friend group like this it seems stupid but when it's magnified to a huge audience it's a lot like for example even not to get too personal but people are judging you and Craig's relationship when they've never even seen you guys together as a relationship just from what they know of you guys on tv shows or people judging Des from two episodes
of a show and they know all about whether me and him are good for each other. Right. And that's crazy. Really sick. That's why I don't feel the need like if Craig and I broke up to ever say something on my Instagram because I feel like my Instagram is
like keyword it's mine so like i post what i want to post and usually it's like cute shoes well for example like james and raquel um on november 10th they posted like him kissing her
And another post together on November 2nd together. Another one of them kissing October 21st. Another one of them together on the 19th. So it's kind of like all his content is them together. So then it's kind of like, hey, we're not posting stuff together. But when I saw it, I actually had a very positive feeling where I'm like, good for them. If they're not going to. And this is our mental health moment.
Let's de-center the importance of relationships equating success. Now that was like a lot of like mumbo jumbo words I just used, but let's stop equating being in a relationship with meaning that you're successful because a lot of people are in shitty relationships and it's actually not that hard to get into a relationship. Des is trying to escape behind me. He literally has to tell you that I have to go to Ireland.
So you're so good at relationships. I'm leaving you. I'm so glad the flight worked out. Wait, guys, do you want a moment? Do you need a moment to go hug him? No, it's okay. It's fine. And ladies and gentlemen, that's a real relationship right there. Imagine if his flight got canceled. But moral of the story is if you put all this importance on being in a relationship, then you start
Not having a sane framework of like what you want. Yeah. Because you're doing it all for that relationship. And the next, you know, you're stuck in a relationship and then you'll stay in it too long because you equated it with success when actually you'd be doing so much better alone. I will say I am...
since I started dating I am a relationship girl and I know that about myself and it took me until my 20s to like know that my late 20s when I get into a relationship I put everything to the side and I'm so focused on that relationship and it's so hard to break out of that cycle because you're like this is very important and this
you know, I'm in a successful relationship, whatever. And honestly, until I had a long distance relationship, could I balance that? And I think it's because I go back to my own apartment. I know that I'm there for a certain amount of days. And it's like, do the shit you have to do rather than like,
consuming every single minute and every single day with like who you're dating and what they're doing like you lose yourself and you don't even realize it you're learning that you're capable of like still being yourself while having just like a guy there as well but he isn't the center of everything
Right. Which is super, it's super powerful when you love them, but you don't need them. Do you kind of get what I meant about that from before? Yes. Which sounds so fucked up, but it's actually- But it's not. It means you really love them. Because if you need someone, that's codependency and that's like more complicated. But if you love them and just are choosing to be with them, it's like a cat.
Like my cat does not need me. She chooses to sit on my lap. And that is what I fucking love. I also think that's attractive to guys where they're like, wow, I'm more attracted to her because she just wants to be here. But like she doesn't need me for shit. Well, Des is dealing with unique experience where he's always been the traveling comedian who like girls would kind of change their lives.
Yeah.
But then I also have to make decisions because sometimes I'm too independent where I will always make decisions for my career. And then he's like, hey, you have a fiance. And then I'm like, oh, but I thought I won you over already. But the relationships are ongoingly reminding them like you're still the one that I want to be with no matter how. Like just because you have a ring doesn't mean that you guys are just officially together forever. Like you have to continually...
As my mom says, water the plant. Yeah. Yeah. Yeah. It really is. And let's be honest, it's only downhill from here for both of us. Okay. So there was a moment where I was like, wait, so you never have, like, I feel like you and Craig are in this real, like hot and heavy obsessed with each other. We're official, we're dating stage, which is so fun. And I was talking to my mom and I'm like, so does that just always die? Like, does that die? It actually evolves to something that's
really deep and special where it's like the most deep trust and comfort yeah which is just a different kind of beautiful love because sometimes that early love is like chaotic it's it's a lot of jumping and moving a lot of thrusting in and out it's a lot of stuff but it's I will say with Craig which this is the first time I've ever done this it's
is our like courting stage and our talking phase was a lot longer than anyone I've ever dated. And so our like-- - You kept it in your pants? - No, no, oh God, no. No, but I'm saying like our like single phase of like we're talking, but like we're also doing our own thing. But like I really like you and I like hanging with you, but I'm not ready to like stop doing whatever.
Was very long. And so. I feel like our honeymoon phase. Was pretty long too. Is pretty long. Like it's. We're still very much in it. But like.
This month specifically, and I think it's because we were with our families back to back, it was not like it took a turn where it was like, oh, we're not hot and heavy anymore. But it was more like, this is some real shit. We have to have a real conversation about this particular situation. So let's really talk about it. And it does evolve. But then you do have this moment where you feel so much more connected and you're like, wait.
I've never wanted to have sex with you more in my life because we just had a really crazy conversation. So much better when you know that they like love all of you. It's so different. It's so different. This podcast has evolved so much from the beginning.
And I think also for people to remember that relationships, every relationship is imperfect because we are imperfect. Like we are finding the right imperfect person whose imperfections want to fuck our imperfections or they like, yeah, it causes us to fight. But you're like good at fighting. Yeah. Like one of my biggest fights in my last relationship was eating in the bed.
And literally, like if I order... See, that's non-negotiable. Non-negotiable. Yeah. And literally, I ordered something the other day. I ordered Dunkin' Donuts and I went downstairs to get it from the front door and I was like bringing it into the living room to eat it on the couch. And Craig was like, bring it up to the bed. And I was like, wow, I've never loved you more than in this moment. Like it's just the small things. Oh, God. Oh, God.
anyway now i'm craving fucking dunkin donuts um two for one wraps that's what i got yeah they're amazing incredible there's and you feel like it's healthy because there's a wrap i'm like there's no bread in this also there's something i know that you don't drink iced coffee you drink iced i've been doing iced coffee too now i'm i'm full wild because this is like cracked out on coffee at like 10 a.m and i'm like fine give me a hit
literally never smoked weed in her life does coffee now i do coffee so watch i do coffee i don't know if you guys heard um okay well because craig drinks ice chai the ice chai at duncan is spectacular very sweet he loves very sweet it's very sweet i get it unsweetened like not too sweet i don't understand how you and him drink either tell him the starbucks is better however the green tea latte
Tell him to fuck with that. Tell him to fuck with that. Okay. Act Duncan. Something's going on in Charleston. I have like certain complaints about Charleston. None too big. This one is pretty fucking big. Craig's kitchen is getting redone right now. So we have no like appliances or like things that we can like use. So like we literally order everything. Okay. Pitch. Stop acting like you were going to use an appliance. Do you even know what an appliance is? You couldn't even name an appliance. You just said, you know, things you would use.
stove what are you an appliance name an appliance but besides a microwave and a stove uh air fryer and that's because you're turning 30 anyway continue and that's showbiz baby i know what your complaint is every restaurant that we order from i'm not kidding every single one i order an iced coffee oh not once one time has it shown up
It's like Charleston gets your order from Uber Eats and if you order anything iced, they're like, fuck you. And they just don't give it. They're like, they'll do anything to make it work. They'll take saran wrap and fucking wrap that shit up. You can't even open it. They figure it the fuck out. They put it in a shoe box to get a sock. They figure it out. That's what I'm saying. Also, I went on to Uber Eats the other night because it was like 11 p.m. It was a Saturday night. I was feeling myself. I was like, let's get some burgers. I went to get Burger King.
It said, you can suggest to Uber Eats to put this in your area. And I was like, what? In the 1912, are we living down here? Lobby with my local politician to eat a Big Mac? Are you fucking kidding me? Is this not America? Do I not have fucking rights? What are you guys doing down here? What are you doing? It is funny, the tiny little cultural differences. Also, does everything close at 11? Yeah.
God forbid you're hungry at midnight, little midnight snack. Fuck you. You're going to bed hungry. Fuck you. You got no appliances. Wait, why does Craig not drink coffee? He like doesn't really like it. He's he drinks a lot of tea. And then when I get an iced coffee, he's like you and he'd get like a chai. And I'm like, this tastes like a Christmas tree. You and Hannah like it's like a full on milkshake. Yeah, I think I also like that he's drinking iced chai in December. I respect that.
Well they don't have real seasons down here They think they do Oh true But they don't Oh my god Okay let's do some front page news Okay Do you have anything besides James and Raquel? What? This is perfect like segue and segue And I love when it works out like this I know We have t-shirts coming out
We have t-shirts coming out and we like called the people that do our merch and we were like, hey, we say things and like right off the cuff and like we need a shirt that says it immediately. I saw on Instagram today that Pete Davidson has taken over the Calvin Klein Instagram. I saw that and he's like, I'm here like as if it's Pete's Instagram now. So they want people to follow as if they're following Pete that I've never heard that in a brand strategy before. Well, because...
He doesn't have an Instagram, which I respect. I know. It's so hot. It's so hot. It's so hot to be that famous without an Instagram. Well, you know who else doesn't and we love is Jennifer Lawrence. So if you go to the Calvin Klein Instagram, they're following one person and it's Machine Gun Kelly.
And Pete Davidson is. Yeah. You think they're going to do a whitey tighty photo shoot with machine? I think they're doing a collab. How do you think Travis is feeling? I mean, I just think it's crazy that you called. You were like, Kim is not letting all of this attention go. And you nailed it. You really didn't. I was skeptical and I fought you on it. And you're fucking right. You did fight me because it was a hot take. But I just felt like Kim's like, if these two could do it.
your girl who's the most interesting to look at could do it and she picked i think i would say that he is having such a moment right now he is like probably one of the most famous comedians right now it is kind of annoying that throughout his life though he has increasingly steadily just dated girls who are more famous and more famous and more famous and more famous and more famous and
You know what's crazy? What's crazy? Finish your thought, then I have to. No, just that he started with Carly Aquilino, who is a very successful comedian. Then was Kazzy David, who's incredible. Cute Kazzy. And I also heard he might have proposed to either of them. He's very into falling in love and intensity. That was a rumor. I think you're right. I think he might have proposed to Kazzy. Then he starts dating the actress. Oh, wait. Then he starts dating Ariana Grande.
And then he like doesn't really date the actresses. He tried for Kate Beckins, whatever. And then he did like you just keep going. But the thing is, Margaret, who's after Kim? Hillary Clinton. Who's after Kim? Literally Martha Stewart. No, he'd have to go completely rogue and go to Lexi.
Yeah, like someone that was super fit, like Madonna. He'd have to do something wild. Break up Britney's marriage. Miss Piggy? It would be too much. There's no going on from Kim Kardashian in terms of like fame level. But here's what I wanted to say. Imagine if the roles were reversed and there was this girl. Oh my God.
And she just kept dating more famous and more famous and more famous. They would rip her apart. Rip her apart. Rip her apart. She's a social climber. She's her whole career. She's not talented. She's not talented. She needs to latch on to someone else to be relevant. She's not even that funny.
And he's getting praised. I would also would argue that as you get more famous, there's a comfortability of dating someone who is familiar with the attention you get. So you don't a feel like you're forcing someone in a spotlight they didn't want to be in. And B, they also know how to navigate it. So I could see as you get more famous while why you're with people of similar fame. I also have a conspiracy theory. I'm into it.
You know how the Kardashians are like really famous, obviously. And they have like niche things that they do. Like there's a Kylie makeup. There's the skims. There's Kourtney doing whatever Kourtney does. I have a feeling that they like try and dominate every single sector of fame. Like I have a feeling that like when Kourtney was really good friends with Addison Rae, I have a feeling almost that they were like
They paid Addison Rae to hang out with them to get the Gen Z. To get the TikTok. Well, yeah. Where's she gone? Yeah. It's almost like her contract's up.
And she's like, doesn't hang with her anymore. I thought your conspiracy theory was that we're all living in a simulation Kardashians app. Here we are. No, we literally are. But continue. You're right with the sectors. They're hitting baby. They've hit jeans. They've hit makeup. They've hit skin care. They've hit video games. They've hit. They haven't gone into music and movies.
They haven't gone in. That is the one thing they have not gone into. But I almost feel like Pete is a small segue into it. Well, Kanye. Yes. And Pete is comedy. Travis is also blink 182. Don't forget. So they're hitting. They're doing music right now. They're doing music. They haven't broken into movies. Yeah. Like scripted. Scripted. But anyway, who's watching movies? Let's be honest.
We're watching dope documentaries. We have to discuss. No, we have to talk about it. Giggling in bed brought to you by Mattress Firm.

Hannah, I watch, I'm also notorious for starting movies and being like, whatever, I'll fall asleep and like watch the rest tomorrow night.
I started King Richard at midnight. Same. I cried. I don't know. I could not imagine how you felt watching it. Like, because you've like felt moments like that. There were so many moments where I got chills and like cried. Also, Will Smith is...
is so good in every fucking movie like we need to stop talking about his dick or talk i'm like i don't want to know about will smith's personal life because he's such an iconic actor i'm like you guys are cheapening his brand by telling me anything about his relationship with jada i don't care if his wife will smith alone everyone yeah i don't care i don't want to will smith is literally an artist and he is so fucking good at what he does
Do you remember the way... We're talking about King Richard, you guys. Do you remember the Williams sisters coming up at all? Like, what is your experience living with the Williams sisters? I remember being younger and seeing them because one of my cousins, like, loved tennis. And that was the only, like...
view I had into it. So I remember watching them play doubles together and thinking like, oh, how cute, like their sisters in real life. Yeah. And that was really all I knew. But so like I had no idea that Venus was actually better than Serena.
growing up because she was two years older. They would play each other in finals and the public was convinced because they'd never play as well when they'd play each other and the public was convinced that Richard would just tell them beforehand like Venus gets this one, Serena gets this one and they'd like to save their sisterhood because like there's so much money on the line and like he didn't want to
It was awkward because these two sisters. Honestly, that's smart. And I've had friends do that. Like they just be like, let the older one win. Like let's not cause drama. But Serena, this is the most beautiful thing about it that they didn't talk about is that Serena's I think 39 and Venus is 41. Yeah.
And Venus, even though she's losing like second and third round or health is not that great. She's still playing. She still loves the game. Like just to play where most girls like they hit the number one ranking. And then after a couple of years, they retire because they're like, I got my sponsorships. I'm rich. I'm out. I mean, Naomi Osaka wants to quit tennis. She hates it. Yeah. Let's be honest. Yeah. Where Serena's 39 and still trying to wait. She's trying to break the most Grand Slam record ever won by any woman in open air. Like Serena's.
The greatest who ever did it. I love them. I love them. Wait, was that girl a real tennis player? The one that was like Jennifer Capriati? Jennifer Capriati was...
I loved her. She was great. She won at 15 years old, but then she kind of got into drugs and partying because she got so famous and she had to go to rehab and people kind of talked about her like, this is why you shouldn't get girls into professional too early. But Jennifer had to come back. She did well, retired, but no one's been what Serena is.
It's so crazy that people said like their dad was kind of like an asshole in certain situations. And like watching the movie, some of the decisions he would make, I'd be like, oh my God, he's going to ruin their career. This is going to be awful. And then it turned out to be the right decision. Like when Venus was going to sign the Nike deal for $1 million. $3 million. $3 million. And then she got it for $12. Yeah, Venus got offered $3 million. These parents have made no money from her.
And this is the moment. Imagine you've made no money. And finally, Nike, who is the number one tennis sponsor that you want, is like, here's three million dollars if you sign today. They said no because Richard believed in her so much that he and then it said a year later, Reebok gave her twelve million dollars. It's just crazy. Yeah.
It's such a good movie. But those two girls were so naturally talented and they overcome... It overcame so many just biases and obstacles that...
that I'm I mean Richard is the king of manifestation the king of a 78 page manifestation of his daughter's lives and it came true they both are like a big reason why I wanted to play tennis because it has main character energy yeah it is the most main care and or golf or golf but 10 I loved golf too but tennis the way that you like control the point and I could run around because I was a hyper crazy little kid like
I just love how we both love tennis. I love tennis. It's so chic. This is a tennis podcast, you guys. It is. It really is a tennis pod. Anyway, so we highly recommend King Richard.
um also oh hi butter venus has her own line of tennis clothing which is really cool and serena is doing a whole bunch of shit so it's cool to see how their lives have progressed since just being tennis phenoms but and it was sweet to see how much they loved each other no matter what and how proud they were of the other one but for their success we are
have hit our time. We have so much more to talk about, I guess, next episode. And just want to remind you guys, San Francisco and Seattle, we are playing theaters, bringing the Giggly Squad live tour. Check our Instagram link. We're going to get it up on our website. Thanks for giggling with us today. Bye.
