Should we tell our first period stories? Yeah! I don't know, I feel like that needs to be said. I was in school, we were having our AVEN mentors or whatever. I asked to go to the restroom and I was like, I just want to go to the restroom to go. I was like peeing. Hi everybody, I'm Jay Lawler. I've teamed up with the Amavar Resort and Casino at San Maruel for their one-of-a-kind car giveaway on Halloween, October 31st.
We're giving away my personal favorite muscle car, the Dodge Demon 170. Not only will the lucky winner drive off on this incredible ride, I'll give you a tour of my garage and show you some stuff that I think you might enjoy. So join us for this legendary car giveaway and a tour of my garage. Because if nobody wins, the car goes to me.

It's Dua here. In Leap, I've discovered flowers and flames, the new floral facet, the YSL way. It's floral, but in the hottest way, and it's both luminous. It's really such a statement. It's a real ultimate freedom sensation. So, Yves Saint Laurent. And then I looked out on the toilet, and there's like a little blood drop, and I was like, what the heck? What the heck is going on? So I went up to my teacher, and I said, um, can I have my phone? I called my mom, and she was like, yeah, is everything all right? I was like, I started my period for the first time ever.
I don't know if you guys noticed, but there's something a little different about this episode.
I'm sitting in cash's spot. Yeah. So that's exciting. No, but actually, actually, guys, we decided to boot the boys for an episode and maybe like have like an enjoyable episode for once. That's not chaotic and loud and makes us all want to cry. So we're going behind the boys' back and filming an all girls podcast right now. And we need an all girls logo.
I hope y'all like it. I love it. Yeah, we decided that we can't start a girls podcast right now, but we could at least do an all-girls episode. And I figured it'd be kind of like a fun little girl talk episode. So we went ahead and posted on Instagram and had you guys ask us questions. So...
Let me get my phone out. Let's get to the questions. Let's get to the questions. All right, guys. Should we like pass the phone around? Yeah, let's pass the phone around. Okay. I would say that's nice. All right. We just pick a random question. Yeah, and then maybe like once we do it, we put like a little heart by it so we know we asked it. Yeah. Okay. Some of these might be like repeated. Yeah. Because there's a lot on this list. Guys, also I'm in a sauna right now, so if you see me profusely sweating, that's why. Is it turned on? Yeah. Oh, okay. Yeah. She's going to be sweaty on the girls pod. Oh, God.
No, guys, this already is so enjoyable. Like, not having Cash and Mav on is just so much better. To, like, yell? Yeah. I don't know if y'all can tell, but their voices, like, are so loud and just carry. That's literally how they talk. I already lost my voice, too. I know. Yeah, it's not going to be a very talkative episode, I guess. What? Actually, it is going to be talkative. How'd you lose your voice? Oh, cheer camp. Oh.
How was Cheer Camp? It was so much fun. I loved it. And, like, I didn't have a lot of fans there, so it was enjoyable. So, yeah. No. Oh, yeah.
I don't think that sounds bad. I mean, I loved everybody that I met and we had so much fun and it was, I didn't get noticed a lot there. So, it was enjoyable. No, I agree. Sometimes like when you go to a place where there's a lot of people who like notice you, it can be like a little overwhelming when you're just trying to like do whatever you like went to do. But,
But I understand where you're coming from. Yeah. Yeah. Okay. So let's get on to the questions. Okay. Well, we'll start off easy with the first one. These were all questions that you guys asked. So we're going to be your big sisters right now and tell you all the things that your mothers didn't tell you. So, well, I guess this isn't really even like a question, but someone asked, how long does it take us to do our makeup? I guess I'll go first. It probably takes me like...
30 minutes if I'm just trying to like quickly get my makeup done but like I can stretch it out to like a two-hour process if I want yeah I would say my makeup process takes me like 25 minutes and then like today it waits just faster than Kate yeah I had to be faster than Kate okay okay but um no actually my my makeup process like I can take it to be three hours or I can take it to be
Like, 10 minutes. Like, I'm not even kidding. Like, I can do it really fast. And... Because it's, like, just, like, 10 steps. Like, Fallsville... Like, actually, no. It's a little more. It's either Harper will go full face or just nothing. Today was, like, medium. Medium? Yeah. So that it wasn't either. So, yeah. It was about...
30 minutes I will say one time Harper and I did a video where we like swapped makeup routines and I felt like her makeup routine was so much more complex than mine I felt like I was like behind in life yeah that's how I feel too when I'm with her like yeah she has so many like products she knows what she's doing though I'm a 10 year old Sephora girl she is mine probably takes about 10 or 15 minutes no it doesn't yes it does I don't wear that much I can tell you have like really light makeup yes yeah what the heck
I don't like wearing a full face all the time. Yeah, sure, whatever. Sorry. What is that supposed to mean? She loves wearing full faces. When do I wear full faces? I don't wear foundation or like that. BB cream. BB cream. Yeah, that's like thin. Fall is filter. Guys, BB cream is like so OG though. Do y'all remember being like...
Well, I know you were just like 13, like a little over a year ago. But do you remember being like 13 watching like YouTube videos and they always had BB cream? Yes. Like it was like the standard. Every makeup routine had the CoverGirl BB cream. Exactly. I'll still use a BB cream if I'm just like going to the lake or like when we went skiing. I should get one. I never got one before. I have like stuff similar to it, but not that brand. Uh-huh.
Your flawless filter. Yeah, I have flawless filter, like the Kosas one. Oh, yeah, the Kosas that I gave her, the flawless filter that I gave her. Oh, you're so generous. I know, I'm very nice, guys. I bought that with my own money. She's so generous. If you guys want to come over to my house, I will be very generous and give you a... Y'all don't know... Careful what you ask for. Y'all don't know what my hands are doing under here. No, we don't. What are they doing? What are they doing? I don't know if we want to know. Y'all don't want to know what my hands are doing. They are making a spell. What? What?
♪ I'll put a spell on you ♪ - Okay. - So how long does it take you to do your makeup, Kensey? - Oh, well. - We literally just talked about this. - So if I was actually like getting things done and I was only focused on that, it would probably take me like 20, 30 minutes. - Yeah. - But because I'm a little ADHD brain, I like to sing a little bit.
little bit. I'll do a little dance here and there. Then I'll go talk to Maverick for a little bit. I'll come back and do that. And then maybe I'll go get a snack. It takes about an hour. You can make it take forever, I'm saying. But like I also have two completely different makeup routines because like I have my makeup routine for like when we're making videos and I actually want to look good. And then I have my makeup routine for like on a day we're not making videos and I just need to like pull myself together a little bit. Yeah. And like that's when I literally just put on like the Lumi Glotion from L'Oreal and like make myself look all glowy.
I would say in public, I sometimes look so ratchet. Like, you will never see me looking that bad. And, like, it's so bad. Like, in Target sometimes or Walmart, and I get noticed and stuff. That's all right. You don't have to get ready all the time. Yeah. It doesn't matter. No, you don't. Honestly, I feel like getting ready is such, like, a –
thing for you. Like if you don't enjoy, like I enjoy doing my makeup, but like on the days I don't feel like doing my makeup, I just don't. Like I do my makeup when I want to. Exactly. And you keep going with that dream.
Thank you. It's so inspirational, Harper. But I do feel like there's so much. I think that's why there's so many like young girls like in Sephora now like buying like $50 foundations and stuff is because social media like pushes makeup so hard for young people. You just do not need that. No, it's so unnecessary. And like if you're a 10 year old Sephora girl, I'm sorry, but like you're wasting your money.
Yeah, like, oh. No, I'm kidding. No, Harper actually just, like, enjoys, like, doing her makeup and playing with makeup. And I also make a living off of doing makeup. That is true. I mean, I wouldn't say I make a living off doing makeup. I mean, I do the podcast, too. Yeah. And I mean, I have fun doing it. But I feel like so many girls just, like, will literally use their allowance money just to, like, go be trendy because that's what social media tells you to do. And it's, like, so unnecessary. It should be.
No, and I'm, like, such a firm believer that you literally, like, don't need expensive makeup at all. Like, I mean, if you can afford it, I guess go for it. But, like, I feel like expensive makeup and cheap makeup are so similar. Like, you can hardly tell the difference. Yeah, I completely agree. And, like, if you're going to invest your money...
If you're going to invest your money, I always say you should invest money in your hair care. Because cheap hair care will destroy your hair. Girl, when I tell you, I used to be obsessed with skin care and hair care. Yeah, I remember one time we asked Harper, we were like, what did you do for fun during quarantine? And she was like, grow out my hair. That was her response. One time she got this mason jar and filled it with rotten eggs.
rice water, milk, all this nasty stuff. And she made me, and then you like put it in the freezer for a long time or something and then made me pour it over your hair and it smelled so disgusting. Like I was like gagging. It was so gross and it didn't do anything. It did. It kind of helped my hair. That's how you know your sister loves you though that she'll pour rotten eggs on your hair. It wasn't rotten eggs. It was rice and orange
oranges no no no there was eggs in it there was no i remember the smell okay but there i have porn um raw eggs on my head because those like strengthen your hair um whatever because they're protein and protein helps your hair gain sounds legit to me yeah it is where did you see this yeah everywhere i used to be obsessed and i have type i have like type ac hair or something like that oh my gosh you know your hair type yeah i do there's hair types that's legit apparently
Is your hair like naturally wavy? It's like underneath it gets curly and then on the top it's wavy. I feel like my hair low-key got ruined in like middle school when I was... Oh, she's gone. She disappeared. I can feel the floor vibrate. It just like disappeared. Oh.
you good anyways uh yeah i'm fine oh my gosh she's like who was calling you oh uh nobody oh your hair's a little messed up now yeah do you want me to help you wait we need to have another pod about girl talk about boys oh just like straight up like everything that's wrong with them oh who would i do hey the mic the mic putting her hand up an arm hole and said is this the wrong hole

So I guess you got to read kind of. Okay, so. I should have just told her to go down in order because she's going to take forever. Okay, let me think here. What is, uh.

I haven't had a boyfriend, so... I mean, I've, like, talked to guys, but, like, let me put a pink heart next to this. I have a hot take on this one. Really? Let's hear it. I think you shouldn't start dating until after you're out of high school. What?
That's my personal opinion. Sorry, what did you say? I think junior year is a good age to get in a serious relationship. Okay, I definitely, I'm such a hypocrite saying this because I definitely had boyfriends before. But I feel like once you're old enough to drive, you can start dating. If you can't drive yourself or if you're a guy and you can't drive and pick up your date,
be so real like you're a little too young to be dating if your mom's dropping you off at the movie theater for a date yeah which I'm like the fattest hypocrite because I did that I did that too like but it was so stupid and it's so pointless and honestly I feel like the only thing it does when you're that young is like hurt you because like then you like start liking a guy and it's like your first crush your first boyfriend and you like think you're gonna marry him
And you don't. I can relate to that. What do you mean? Just kidding. No, I can't. Like, I mean, I've had, like, a crush and stuff. Yeah. I've, like, talked to a guy for two years, and then he kind of broke my heart. Yeah, that's what happens. That's what happens. When you start...
And I'm not saying that doesn't happen when you're like the second you turn 16, you can get a serious relationship. Like obviously you'll date when you're 16 and you'll break up and you'll be like heartbroken. But it's like it's just a little bit different when you can at least drive yourself to the date. Yeah. Because in reality, there's like such a small percent of people that will be married to the person they're dating.
when they're 13 like i mean i i understand it's fun and like society it literally society pushes all of this like when i was younger i used to want a boyfriend so bad because i watched like nickelodeon and victorious and they were all dating and it just looks so fun to have a boyfriend yeah yeah like jade and beck yeah i wanted that for my yeah i think my hot take is kind of along the same lines because i went to college after high school so i moved actually my first year of college i
I moved six hours away from home. So any guy that I'd ever met in high school was just in the past. Yeah. Never saw them again. Um, but yeah, a lot of heartbreak comes with that when you move away, even if you're in a relationship that's been going like two or three years as a senior and you move six hours away, it's just not feasible. That's, that's the, I get that too. I mean, I wasn't,
I didn't date, like, any... I mean, I dated Cash in high school, but, like, he didn't even go to my school. It was, like, we were already long distance the second we started dating. Yeah, that's hard. But, like, I didn't experience being together every single day and then having to go long distance. But, like, I could not imagine, like, being in high school, seeing this guy every day for two years, like, getting to spend all this time together. And then all of a sudden you guys have to go five hours apart and you're long distance. And it's, like, you don't know that. Yeah. Like...
It just seems hard. So I feel like at least 16 is my bare minimum, but I kind of agree with the...
it does seem a lot of heartbreak if you're just gonna move away after high school it's like hard it's different for different people yeah guys i was about to make the most cringiest statement ever but i decided not no i was just like playing back in my head like a girl like saying this like a little girl being like guys sabrina's so real heartbreak is one thing my ego is another oh what
All right, yeah, that did not need to be said. Heartbreak is one thing, my ego's another. I'm big. All right, Reese, do you want to pick out the next question? I could see a little girl saying that. I'm like, oh my gosh, that gives me second hand. Don't say that. If you're a young girl, don't say that line ever. I'm just protecting you.
Alright, have you picked one out? You took a minute. Did you put a heart next to the one? Yeah. I know I should have just made us go like in order, but I feel like there's some we kind of want to save for later. Yeah. So make sure to stay for later, guys. I know it's a girls podcast. It's boring. It's not boring. I'm having a great time. People have been begging for this. It is relaxing. I know. It's not like, like imagine if one of the guys was here right now.
I feel like the guys make it funny. They make it funny, but at the same time, like... Really hectic. They don't have...
any sort of like sense of like reality yeah I think almost like the best way to put it like like if you ask them like a genuine question they cannot give you a serious answer and they can't be serious about it like if you ask like what do you like what's your favorite thing about your girl they'll say something stupid yeah because they don't like being put on the spot like that and having to be serious in the moment so they automatically just give you a stupid answer they're automatically like uh I like how my girl looks like a pig and stuff and I'm like what the heck what is wrong with you they pretend they don't have hearts in front of each other they do it's
so bad. Kinsey and I are literally vouched for each other. They're so different in front of other people. And the second it's behind closed doors, they're like... Not even that, I guess. But it's like Mav, for me, Mav will come out and be like,
making fun of me like getting on my nerves like him and cash will be arguing and he knows i'm upset and cash knows i'm upset and then i go to my room and cash is like i'm sorry he was doing that i'm so sorry what and i'm sure i'm sure kinsey will go to the room and be like mav you shouldn't be bothering kate like that and he's like i know i shouldn't but they would never talk like that in front of each other that's so funny okay i have a question what's everyone's favorite lip gloss i
Oh gosh. I have my answer. I always have my summer Fridays. Yeah, I actually love summer Fridays. And there's also the new cupcake one which I really like. Cupcake? Yeah, it's the like birthday cake
Wait, oh, are you talking about like the exclusive one? I was so mad. I couldn't get it. I got it. I love it. You did? Yes. And it's like sparkly. Yes, it's at home. Yes. I wish I could have gotten that one. Where do y'all get this? Sephora. Sephora. I love it. I've been using it for like literally two years. No, it lasts. The bottles, the tubes last like so long. So long, yeah. I kind of
like I always actually had one like in my hand at all times for the longest time and then I just lost them. But like, I want to say my favorite like actual lip gloss is the Clarins lip oil. Yeah. I knew you were going to say that. It has the like huge applicator. It's so juicy. The flavor is so good. It's kind of expensive. Yeah. But it is like worth it. Like my favorite lip gloss ever. It's a lip oil. That's why I love lip oils. Lip oils are so good. Yeah. You know, I bet like what a good like dupe is for the Clarins one though is the NYX one. Oh,
They have the really plush apple. I hate when brands are like, oh, we have a new lip oil dropping, and it's literally just lip gloss. I know. I'm like, dude. Elf did that. They're like, our lip glow oil. I'm like, babe, that's a lip gloss. Isn't that a lip oil? Elf one is pretty good, though. Elf is really good. Elf has really good dupes for everything. I was just so sad when their lip oil came out, and it was just a lip gloss. I was like, that's not what I expected. It's a good lip gloss, but it's definitely not an oil. Exactly. Exactly.
I don't know what my favorite is. Like, I really... I love the Charlotte Tilbury lip liner, but I don't really like to wear glosses because when I swing my hair back and forth, they get stuck in. That's true. Harper constantly lives like she's in a movie. No. Hey, guys. Oh, God. When that wind blows in my hair, it just perfectly, like, gets stuck in my hair. It just, like, gets in my lip gloss and, like, everybody...
see it no but what's it called i do like chapsticks um so i like um break my nose i like um i like summer fridays this is a good lip yeah i like lineage i actually like lineage right here like what even is this lip glowy bomb you're gonna be so jealous i got a pr from lineage i know i saw that oh yeah on my hall story yeah yeah she has me at it on snapchat yeah
Anyways. Yeah, I feel like, you know what? Scene is embedded in my head, though, from childhood that I always wanted to recreate when I got older. And then when I got older, I was like, ew, that's kind of cringy. But you remember the Mean Girls scene where Regina just gets off stage, and she's in her little Santa Claus thing, and her boyfriend comes over to give her a kiss, and she's like, ugh.
Lip gloss. Oh, yeah. I literally was like, wow, that is such a power move on Regina's part. I need to recreate that. That's so funny. You should do that to Cash. Cash with his big lips would be like... You should make a TikTok like that. No, I like... Sephora stores are everywhere you are. So just pop in when you need a brown lip to match your 90s playlist. A confidence boost before your interview?

You can save every day by shopping at Whole Foods Market. Seriously, don't just go for their big sales. They have literally thousands of low-priced goods with their house brand, 365 by Whole Foods Market. While at happy prices, limited-time seasonal flavors, and all the quality you expect, like
like no high fructose corn syrup or over 300 other ingredients banned from all the food they sell. There are so many ways to save at Whole Foods Market. Now you know. I do do that sometimes. Like if I just put lip stuff on or like just some of my makeup, I don't want to be kissed. Get out. Because it just messes your makeup up. There was a time when Cash was like, before we got married because we didn't kiss, so he would like kiss me on my like cheek or like my forehead or something. His lips were like always white for my makeup. It was hilarious. Always.
Like, it was so bad. And I'd look at his lips and I'm like, why do they look so crusty? And it was literally like my makeup on his face. Mavericks does that too. Yeah. Because he kisses me on the cheek. And it looks like so crusty. And I'm like, what's on your face? Yeah, it's like so gross looking. They look uncanny. No. I've looked uncanny before and I don't want to talk about it. Um.
Anyway, this happens. Wait, what did you say? I've looked uncanny before. Oh, what that means. It's like a robot. I don't know. No, it's like whenever your lips are the same color as your foundation. Yeah. That's so like 2000s makeup. Yeah. Wait, people used to do that. They would put like concealer on their lips instead of lip gloss. It was bad. They literally called them like butthole lips. Yeah. Ew. Like when you talk about it, it's literally butthole lips. Oh my gosh. Oh, not by me. Why?
Can we help you? Who is that? Is that Taylor Swift? Yes. Don't be talking to my mic like that. What? Whoa. I don't know if you got the memo. This is like an all-girls podcast. This is a girls podcast. He's touching me with his open shoulder. Or is she? I'm sorry. Yes. No, that's...
What are your pronouns? I was just talking about how that happens to her. Is your hair stuck in your lip gloss? Yeah, it happens sometimes, but, you know. Did you get the memo, like, this is an all-girls pop? Yeah, don't let me interrupt you guys. Go ahead. Continue. Okay. All right, should we do our next question? Yeah, Kinsey? Here, I need to open it. Oh, yeah. Why don't we let our new guest pick the next question? Yeah, I agree. Yeah, and she can answer. What's your name? Ma'am. I'm Kat.
Kat. Oh, wow. Nice to meet you, Kat. Okay. What am I supposed to do? Kat. You should ask this one right here. Like, pick a question and we're just putting it. Then you answer it. Yeah. That question? Yeah. Kat, can you meow? Yeah. You can do it, Kat. You got it. If you're embarrassed, it's okay. We're all girls here. Yeah, like, it's an open topic. I'm sure all the people watching right now are girls, too, because it's a girls episode. Yeah. And the only girls here.
Does it have to be that one? Come on, Kat. Don't be shy. Kat Meow for us. The question says, do tampons hurt? Finish it off. What age did you start using them? Do you have an answer for us? You can't answer the question for us. Oh, his shirt is open in the back. That's a little
I think Kat stole one of my dresses. Kat was a little promiscuous. Loki Kat's dress was cute. Loki Kat's dress was not Kat's dress. So Kat is walking down the stairs naked. Well, now that Kat's gone, I'm glad that's over. Yeah. Kinsey, you can go ahead and pick the next question. Okay, let's see. Oh, no.
Oh, some of these are like heartfelt. I know. Everyone asks like such like sweet questions. Okay, I like this one. What age to wear makeup? That kind of goes with like the first question we were talking about. I agree.
I forgot what the first question was, actually. Okay, my opinion is, I think going into middle school, you can wear, like, a little makeup if you want. Like, concealer, lip gloss, mascara. Okay, when did you guys start wearing makeup? Starting in sixth grade. Probably middle school. Yeah. But I, like... But then going... Like, as I've gotten older, I've kind of, like, added more to my makeup routine. I started more in ninth grade. Like, I, like, started, like, going, like, crazy on makeup in ninth grade. Or not crazy, but, like... You wore makeup before, though. Yeah. Because you were the get-ready-with-me-girl before ninth grade. Yeah, but, like, I wouldn't have...
Like, I wouldn't really have, like, that much makeup on, you know? Because I've looked at my makeup routine from last year, and now it's so weird. Because I, like, put just a little bit of concealer on, and then I put, like, what's it called? Halo Glow on, and then I call it a day and stuff. I will say, I don't think you should wear fake, like, lashes until, like, sophomore or junior year. Girl, you're wearing fake lashes. Well, these aren't fake, but...
No, I'm saying I don't think you should. Are you wearing fake lashes right now? No, I'm not. No, that's definitely just my spirit. She's got some beautiful lashes. They're so good for you. Thank you. No, these are my real lashes. Have you got them filled? No. Well. I don't believe you. Okay, they aren't fake. Those don't look fake, Harper. You got them filled. No, I didn't. Okay, this doesn't need to be a fight.
I don't believe you. You're wearing falsies. Yeah, you're wearing fake ones. And I'm proud of my falsies. Okay. Even though they get crusty sometimes, I don't care. And like, I can look a little ghetto sometimes with them, but like,
I think they're fine. When did you start wearing makeup, Kinsey? I started wearing mascara in junior high. But also, for whatever reason, I'm a little bit older than these guys. We don't need to talk about that. But also, it was a big trend to wear eyeliner when I was in junior high. Oh, yeah. Like that, like hat? Yes. So I was the raccoon for sure in junior high. Oh, no.
and it was a big deal to straighten your hair, so I had paper straight hair and the winged eyeliner. It was also a thing to curl your hair and just straighten your bangs. That should never come back. I don't know why people did that. But yeah, I started wearing eyeliner and mascara in junior high, and then my freshman year is when I started wearing foundation and stuff. Oh, okay. I started...
So I always like played with makeup as a kid because my grandma sold makeup. So whenever I went to her house, it was like a little treat. She had our own like makeup bags. It was so sweet. So like by the time I was like in sixth grade, I remember so specifically my first bottle of mascara. She took me to Target for my birthday to buy whatever I want. And that's what I wanted.
was mascara. So that's when I started wearing it. It was, like, right before sixth grade. But, I mean, it is weird how, like, you do just start adding stuff. And, like, by the time I was in eighth grade, I was wearing, like, foundation that didn't match my skin at all. Like, that's just how it happens. But, like...
It just kind of changes over time, like your makeup. Like, I feel like your makeup is constantly changing because you just, like, find new products you like or, like, new trends happen. Uh-huh. For sure. Like, for a while, I was super orange. Like, I would always look really orange, and I still am. Like, let's just be honest here. So you're not super orange, honestly. I don't know. I used to be, though, with my, like, spray tans and all that because first year. So in the middle of the year, this year, I'm going to be looking orange. But it's fine. Everything's fine. It'll be all... Wait, I have a question. How come, like...
Every cheerleader gets a spray tan too dark, though. Like, why don't y'all just get more natural-looking ones? The lights, like, make you look so pale that you need to get a dramatic spray tan, I guess. Really? Yeah. And, like, when they do blush and stuff, it's more blush than you use and stuff. Yeah, I, like... I've noticed, like, with dancers specifically, like, when they're going up on stage, they'll have, like...
super heavy makeup yeah and i knew it was to show but like i didn't realize you guys look flashy on stage if you don't have a tan we look like really i i don't even know what i'm saying but i feel like that's how like people get really bad spray tan addictions is like i know they just go dark and then that's what they're used to like i i had that i did i never like spray tan but i self-tanned and i definitely got a little too dark sometimes yeah i self-tan too but it's kind of dangerous it is
No, it's dangerous to start like self-tandem. Because then you just have like a sense of like unawareness to it, you know? Wait, I think a light just turned off. Did it? A light? No. I don't think so actually. I don't know. She's like seeing things right now. I'm seeing things guys. Making stuff up for fun. What's the next question? I want to know. I don't know. Let's see. Just throw it.
Yes. Good catch. Wow. Softball player skills coming out. Yeah, I'm like athletic and stuff. Yeah. Okay. Call me athletic. Does bra shopping get less embarrassing? Yes. Bro, I don't even go bra shopping. Speak for myself. Yes, it does. Yeah, I feel like...
It just depends on, like, each girl's different. One with, like, your self-awareness and, like, how embarrassed you get of things like that. But also it just, like, depends on your mom, too, like, how open you are with stuff like that. Yes. Or, like, if you don't have a mom, like, I could see how it could be, like, hard. Stuff like that could be, like, hard to deal with. Yeah. And honestly, my advice for that is if, like, you're in a situation where, like, you just don't have, like...
a woman directly to you that can help you with things like that, I would say, like, go to your best friend's mom or something. Yeah. Because, like, when, like, there's someone, like...
For adults, if there's, like, a girl that doesn't have, like, a motherly figure, I feel like other moms around are going to want to help that girl, like, as much as possible. So, like, I feel like it's just, like, a known fact, like, an unspoken rule that, like, you help the little girl that, like, will need help with stuff like that. Yeah, I remember I used to want a bra so bad, but now I, like, hate them. It is, like, an unfortunate thing to have to experience. I feel like everyone, like, when you're, like, young and, like,
You just like get excited for that because you want to grow up and then it's like the second you're old enough. You're like, no, not now. I want to grow down. Yeah. No. Also. Oh, sorry. You go ahead. Okay. You're going to freak out. I took off my nail and my nail is very long. Mine fell off yesterday. Oh, my gosh. Like that's mine. When have you been? I don't remember. Oh, no. I don't know. We were talking about how like everyone wants a bra until you actually need one.
- That's the thing is like you wanted so bad until you needed it. - Oh, I was gonna say, a lot of people, I feel like at least that I went to school with, it was the opposite. It was that they didn't want a bra but they needed one. - Really? - So I would say like starting sixth grade, even if you were like, don't feel like you have anything, just go ahead and start

Yeah. Get in the habit. And I feel like, I will say there are sometimes it's like, yeah, there are people that like need one that just like aren't aware. Yeah. And I didn't start wearing a bra until like eighth grade. Yeah. You still don't wear a bra sometimes. Yes. Yeah.
Yeah, like last night I was like, um, Harper, do you have a bra on? And she's like, no. I'm like, you might need to put one on. Were you like going out or were you just at home? At home. She was at home, but we were filming. Oh, well, yeah, you're filming. It's not that big of a deal. Like everybody, everybody. And also I'm not very developed, so it's like fine. Well, it just depends. Yeah, it really is just like depends on the outfit.
Yeah. I remember, like, I actually, like, never wear regular bras anymore. I've gotten in, like, such a bad habit of it. Of sports bras? Like, I wear, like, like, bralettes, like, the thick-strapped ones. Unless, like, I have to, like, like, I have a shirt I can't wear that with. Then I just go with, like, the, like, sticky boob things. Yes, that's what I always do, too. Like, I always wear those. But I came out yesterday, and we were about to start filming. And I, like, had forgot to put them on, and my friend looks at me, and she was like, Kate. And I was like, oh, no. Nobody would have told me, I don't think, had I, like, went.
Wait, was it Kate? Yeah. Oh my gosh. Wait, she told me the same thing yesterday. Yes. Kate had the same problem. She was so weird. She was having some girls out. She was like wearing a white shirt and you could like completely see like the color. Cause she's wearing like a colored sports bra. And Kate was like, Kinsey, I don't know if you know this. Kate's like one of our other friends. We just share the same name. She's such a girl's girl. She is. That's so nice. Okay. All right. What's, let me pick out the question. Yeah. It's my turn. Okay.
Okay. I'm going to pick out a juicy one. Yeah. Okay. We're about a good halfway through, so we can start getting some good ones in. Oh, that's weird. Well, if it's weird, then we should probably answer it because some people aren't going to want to ask it to other people. No, it's so weird. Okay. Well, point it out and I'll ask it if you want me to. I'll just... It's like...
- Something like cat over there. - Oh, actually hold on. - No, meow. - Did you hear her say when cat was here, she kept saying, can you meow for us? Can you meow for us? - I did not hear that. - She said it like four times. She was like, cat, meow for us. - Oh wait, this one is actually like, I love this question because I worry about it right now. So it is how do you feel about gaining weight? Let me put a heart by that. There we go.
Okay, so... So, here. I'm a fire and cheer, so I really like to look at the scale a lot. And I love to obsess over it. And it's, like, gotten to, like, a point where I'm, like, always, like, in my mom's room looking at it and stuff. But, I mean, it's not, like, that big of a deal. I just try to stay under a certain weight. So, if one day I'm over 102 or something like that, I'm like, oh, God, I need to stay 100. I need to stay at 100 because I only like to be 100 pounds. Well, you also understand, like...
you're also still growing she just flipped a nail no like that I feel like that was something that was so hard for me to like comprehend yeah it's like you like go through high school and you like go through puberty and stuff and like after you get out of high school it's almost like a second puberty hits and like I always heard about it and I didn't understand it but like
I feel like mine, like, because, like, I feel like mine hit, like, right after high school. And I was, like, so confused. I was, like, why, like, am I gaining weight? Like, why am I not 120 pounds like I was when I was 15? And I, like, could not understand it. Like, I didn't change my diet. I didn't stop exercising, like, crazy or anything. Like, I just did not understand it. And then I finally realized, like, I looked at myself one day and I was, like, I just...
Got boobs. That's what happened was like, I literally just like developed. It's like I was a teenager and then I just developed even more. And it's like, that's where all the weight came from. And like, I actually cash had looked at me after we got married one day and he was like,
when did you start looking like this he literally said that he was like you did not look like this when we started dating and I was like I don't know like we literally been together for two years and it just like came out of nowhere yeah no and like especially with the growth hormones when I was on them I was like that I I like grew in like one one year and I would like each month I would grow like two inches so it was like super like fast gaining weight like I started from like 80 pounds to like going up to 100 I was like oh my gosh this is like but that's like normally you know I just don't
think people are like it's hard for girls to understand that you're growing all throughout middle school and high school and you're gonna gain weight no matter what and it's a normal thing yeah no way that lash is real on the outside it is it is real Harper yeah I had extensions on and they grew and never had extensions on because I wasn't putting fake on yeah
No, those are definitely real. They're real. You see the one on the end? Yes, but it's curled so perfectly. No, it's curled perfectly. That's why it looks fake. But I can tell it's real, Harper. Okay, just drop this. I have a side view. It looks very real. They're real. Okay, well. You'd be able to see the segments if they were fake. My segments?
Yeah. They're all clumpy. I understand. You should have sisters on the podcast more often. I know. Sisters are like... I honestly like... We all have sisters. But I feel so sad for people that don't. Because I'm like, you didn't... Grow up. You didn't get humbled the way you should have. I get humbled so bad. No, it's more like you humbling me all the time. Girl...
Don't get away from your mic. Oh, okay. You know, you're like so far. I know. How do you feel about it, Kenzie? Remind me the question. It was the gaining weight thing. Oh, the gaining weight question. I think also you have to understand like God created women to have children. Yeah. And so like when you look at a guy, they're going to be flat as a board. A girl...
should not and does not typically look like that because you're protecting your organs like your organs that are going to maybe possibly create a child one day yeah so it is completely normal and I mean you can say all day long not to feel bad about it but people are going yeah you're going to but it's also just like everyone else is yeah and I it's also I know it's so hard when like
you're in middle school and high school and like your body is like constantly changing because one like girls change way faster than guys do. Like literally you'll go all through middle school and a guy like still will not have hit puberty. Yeah. And like most girls are already like
well into puberty by then so it's like you're like maturing and growing so much faster than the guys around you so you're gaining weight quicker you're taller than them and that's all these middle school kids are like little boys are like genuinely insecure about it that's why they make fun of you they don't like that you're a girl and that you're taller than them they don't like that you're a girl and you're more mature than them like it literally intimidates them and that's why they make fun of you and that's also why they'll be so like awkward and like
weird about like periods and stuff is because they're not like they're not changing yet and they're not mature in that way so they just don't understand it and they're gonna deflect and make fun of girls for it and they grow out of it eventually yeah they do grow out of that phase in middle school but it's just like hard being a middle school girl and like you just feel so much bigger than everyone around you like because like I was like so I was so much taller than everyone around me too so it was like
I just felt like I needed to walk around hunchback to be shorter. So I was taller than every guy.
I want to say there was maybe like one or two guys that were taller than me in middle school. Like I was, I felt so small. I was too. Yeah. Really tall. Really fast. She was like, she was like an ogre almost. Okay. No, it's just like all the girls in middle school are like bigger than the guys. And it makes you feel so insecure. Cause you're like this, this isn't how it should be. I know. But like,
but it is at that age. Eventually they will outgrow you. Exactly. I think guys start to like sprout or whatever you want to call it. Like freshmen or like high school. I,
Have y'all seen like a, I guess you have, but like have any, like you're still in high school, but have you seen like a freshman guy recently? Yes. No. Oh, what? I'm not going to say they're humongous. They're tiny. Some are humongous. Okay. There's very few who are like randomly humongous and some are tiny. It's because they're in that phase of like, they might have shot up between eighth grade and freshman year or they might have to do this the next summer. Yeah. And like it literally, by the time sophomore year comes, I would say like 90% of the guys are,
We'll have, like, gotten mature in that aspect. It's insane. Like, some are huge. Like, you're probably going to go back in a couple weeks and see, like, whoa. That was always my favorite thing, like, going back after summer and seeing everybody. Whoa. What happened? No, yeah, exactly. Because the law can change in three months. Yeah. But what's the next question? Sorry. No, you're good. Freeze. You can see it. Oh. My face opened up. Okay.
Let's see. Did your face not open it? No, my face did. I was going to type it in so she would know it, but...
Well, this is awkward. Oh, I forgot. She's, like, looking for a good one. Yeah, no. I know. I feel like the longer we get into the episode, the juicier we need to get. Yeah, get juicier. We got to get all the good ones in. Exactly. Guys, it's actually getting kind of hot. Well, you are under, like, a sauna, babe. I know. Should we tell our first period stories? Yeah. I don't know. I feel like that needs to be said. I feel like that's, like, a given for a girl talk. Yeah. Like, I don't know if y'all were like this, but, like...
When I was younger, I always used to, like, watch Girl Talk videos and, like, try to prep myself. Yes. Yes, I loved watching that. It was. It was so, like, fun to watch. I know. I was like, whoa. I don't know. It's so, like, weird now that...
we can do that yeah and it's like we're all like grown up and i mean i'm not she's sitting on a couple pillows in there to make sure she's tall enough through the sauna i've had a good posture this whole episode so at least be proud of that i am i'm very proud of that thank you for those of you who like don't know harper typically sits like this so like this is really bad i sit very hunched but um

I feel like I got mine later than all of my other friends, or at least everyone lied about it.
because I feel like so many people I lied about it I did too because I why because everyone around me was like getting it and then I had a couple of friends that like literally would make fun of you for not having it yeah and it was like they make you my thing was all my friends weren't getting it and I got it and I was like embarrassed oh so you lied the opposite way oh I lied I was like going around saying I got it and I like definitely did not
Because everyone had it. Or said they did. I wonder how many of those girls were lying now. But, like, I remember in seventh grade, I was, like, the last of my friends, supposedly, that had not gotten it. That's weird. And, like, I remember I would, like, literally keep a mental note in my head of, like, what week I was should have. In seventh grade? In seventh grade. Oh. Because everyone was, like, getting it. Yeah. And so, anyways, I didn't actually get mine until, like, the week before eighth grade.
And I was like back to school shopping with my mom for clothes. And like, I just came home and saw, I started like, I didn't have like some like horror story or anything. No, I was, I mean, I was out shopping, but like when I got home, it was like, Oh, and I like, honestly wasn't sure. And I remember I had like taken some of my mom's pads and like hid them in my room for in case I did. And,
And like, yeah, I was like, well, I don't know if I did or not. So then I just like used a pad and then like later I was like, oh yeah, I definitely did. I was like scared to tell my mom. So the first day, like I didn't tell her. And then the next day I told her. Yeah. Actually. Yeah. I didn't even actually tell her. I just went to the grocery store with her.
And I went and like when we were shopping, I just grabbed a box of pads and like threw it in the car. And she was like, looked at me. She's like, did you start? And I was like, yeah. And she was like, okay. I grabbed the worst ones too. They were like the huge like overnight diaper ones that like no 13-year-old girl needs. It was so bad. Harper, don't answer on that. She would have got me like the little like always teen ones. Harper, don't answer. Don't answer a call on the pod. Who's it? Harper.
It's on speaker. Oh my gosh. Does she know it's on speaker? Yes, I would love that. She's like making plans for tomorrow mid episode. Okay. I'll call you after the podcast. Are you done? Yeah. Can we resume your first story? Oh yeah. Um, I feel very comfortable. No. Um, I literally happened like a month ago, so I'm pretty new. That's not true. Not like a month ago, like three months. Like beginning of summer. Yeah. Yeah. So, uh,
it was very like scary. I was in school. I was like, oh my gosh, I'm so scared. I don't think I know this story. What? Oh, sorry, continue. So I was in school. We were having our avid mentors or whatever. And I asked to go to the restroom. I was like, I just want to go to the restroom to go. You didn't even have to go? Yeah, I didn't have to go. So I wanted to walk around. And like,
literally all my friends have had this like had their periods and stuff and I'm like oh my gosh because you got yours pretty late yeah and my mom did too my mom got hers um end of ninth grade so yeah we were like kind of the same um but what's it called
literally got it and I like I was like peeing because I didn't know what else to do so I was like peeing in there as one does when you go to the bathroom yeah and then I like wiped it I was like what the heck and and then I looked out on the toilet there's like little blood droplets no it's fine it's fine no there's like blood droplets like I was like what the heck what the heck's going on so I called my mom or I went to my teacher and I don't know why but I was crying oh
It is. It's, like, terrifying. I was crying. It's really, like, an adrenaline rush the first time. I was like, what the heck? And so I went up to my teacher, and I said, can I have my phone? To call my mom. And she was like, yeah, is everything all right? I was like, I started my period for the first time ever. And then she was like, oh, yeah, go get your phone. Because, like, my teacher was very, like, strict about phones and stuff, so I had to tell her, like, the truth. And then, yeah. Yeah.
That's my first story. But I also have another story about me using a tampon for the first time. It was so scary. Tell it. Okay. At the lake house, my lake house, I was so scared. I was like, oh, my gosh, no way. Because I got my period. And I was like, oh, my gosh, guys, I got my period. I was so scared. And I was like, no way. And I so. Harper. No, we can cut this.
Might as well just bleep that one out. Yeah, we'll cut that. No, but, like, it was so scary. And my friends were like, yeah, just do it like this. And I was like, okay. And it hurt real bad. It does. It's not supposed to hurt. But it's, like, when you are trying it for the first time, you just, like, don't really know how to. So it's, like, it's a little uncomfortable. If you put it in right, you shouldn't even feel it. Yeah, you shouldn't feel it. But it will, I mean, obviously, it'll be uncomfortable, like, the first time.
Yeah. But it shouldn't necessarily hurt. That's good. Yeah. Yeah. Well, well, uh, next time I try one, if I'm on the lake, then I know it is kind of hard when like, yeah, you first get it and like you start going swimming and stuff. Cause like you're supposed, like you can't wear a pad when you're swimming and stuff. I have a question. Yeah. So since you were at school,
Did you have stuff with you? Or, like, were you prepared for... No, I wasn't prepared at all. Like, I was, like... Did mom pick you up? No, mom didn't pick me up. She was in Dallas. And I asked my friends. I said, hi, do y'all have, like, a pad? They're like, oh, I only have tampons. You can use a tampon. I was like, oh, what? Oh, yeah. And so I just ended up using toilet paper. And then I got home. The whole day? Yeah. It was... No, I had to go. It was your third period, so... My third period, yeah. No, like, your third period. Yeah. So, yeah, that was it. It was towards the end of the day. Yeah. Mm.
What about you, Reese? Yeah, what about you? My first time, I was at a sleepover with my two friends. Oh, my gosh. It's like the video they show us in school. I know. Yes. You know what I'm talking about? The girl is at a sleepover. And she gets it. She's like, oh. And the mom comes in. Yeah. Yeah. And I mean, it wasn't that very traumatic. It was just a little bit. And my friend just gave me a pad. Yeah, I know. I feel like- And I was in- It was seventh grade summer. I remember it. I know. I feel like there's so many horror stories. But I don't have any super-
super scary ones. Mm-hmm. Mm-hmm. But... Yeah. Yeah. One time I was wearing light blue shorts at school and I bled through really bad. Oh. What'd you do? I had to go home. Yeah. And one time my pink sweatpants, that was bad too. Oh. And I just... Oh, one time in Costa Rica...
She bled through her bathing suit and it went down her leg. I bled through, we were on like a boat excursion. It was so funny. And my period's really, really heavy, like on like the heavy days. And like I still put in like a super plus tampon or whatever and it bled through so bad. And I was wearing this like white bathing suit with blue flowers on it and it bled all through there. It was all over the seat. It was terrible. Oh my gosh. It is like, it was so bad. I know and you like,
sometimes you get it and you're like not expecting it and it's just like well yeah and my uncle was there was there too and it was just so awkward for everybody they're like what i feel like even like grown men don't know like what to do in the moment it is just like awkward for because like when you're like the girl especially like a young girl in the situation it's like oh yeah and i didn't know what to do i was like uh yeah what's going on but yeah um
And then you, so you can't get your period, right? How much time do we have? We have a minute. We're good. Okay. We'll keep going. No. Yeah. So whenever I turned 16, I think that's like sophomore, almost junior year. No, I think it was sophomore year of high school. I still hadn't had it and I was kind of worried and I was like, oh, all
All of my friends have had their period. They do say, like, if you're 16 and you haven't started yet is when you should go. Yeah. Yeah. And I was playing, like, four different sports. I was outside all the time. So my mom wasn't worried at all. She was like, oh, like, it's just a normal thing. Yeah.
typically athletes will either not start till later in life or if they do it's like so little like they don't even notice it yeah but I was like no I need to go to the doctor yeah I just I feel like I need to so we went to the doctor and I just sat down and like had a little consultation with the doctor we talked through like what I did have happen what I didn't have happen and um what I was experiencing and then she gave me some medicine kind of like birth control but it was more so to like start my hormones kind of I guess yeah like what you had is it it's probably some
similar to like what I have to take now too. To like, cause like I don't have like, like my body isn't producing like the hormone right now. So like I have to like take it each month to like get the hormone that starts your cycle. Yeah. So I learned so much about hormones. I don't remember any of it, but there's all kinds of different hormones apparently because I was obviously becoming a woman in every other way except for that. And so it's
There was a specific type of pill and hormone that she had to give me to, like, start the reproductive system. Yeah. And so I took those for about a month and went back, and she was like, mm, it didn't seem to work. Yeah. So we took ultrasounds and stuff and realized that I was born without a uterus. Yeah. So obviously if you don't have a uterus, there's no way to have a period. So, no, yeah, I lucked out, I guess, on that one. Yeah. It's bittersweet, I guess you could say. There's pros and cons. I know. I feel like.
I don't know. I feel like for every girl, like, growing up, you just, like... It's, like, such a big moment that you're, like, expecting. And then you get it, and it's like, well, this isn't as fun as you thought it would be. Yes, for sure. But, I mean, I could also see how, like, it was just, like, a confusing and weird... It was confusing and weird, and I was kind of in the boat that you were of, I wanted to have it, because I was like, that makes me normal.
that'll be more like everybody else yeah and whenever i found out oh like you can't have it oh it was kind of like a oh i don't have to deal with that but then it was also like a oh well i'm not the same as everybody maybe i'm weird or yeah like this and this is this is wrong with me and i'm gonna have to deal with that in the future but yeah overall like blessing in disguise for sure yeah yeah
Now I know that, like, I want to adopt children one day. And I might not have known that if I would have had my period and been able to have children like everybody else. Yeah. Yeah. Well, I'm happy that you've, like, made peace.

So that, yeah, like actually like, and also like either, either way, like even if you don't have your own kid, like you can always adopt and stuff. It was just like, I don't know. Like there, there's so many different ways. Yeah. And then also like, uh, without a uterus, your stomach is definitely flat too. So yeah, that's what I've always wanted. I've always wanted like no uterus. So my stomach can be perfectly flat. That's like another thing I was unprepared for was like,
your uterus literally does stick out it's terrible and like no one tells you about that and then you're just like why do i just have like a little bit of fat on like the bottom part of my stomach that won't go away and then one day you just learn it's not fat it's literally just like an organ sticking out yeah and like i mean it's so i feel like for me it's so obvious like when i stand up i'm like oh that's there she is yeah there she is but it's also like i feel
Welcome back, friends. Yeah, I know. Well, sometimes I wake up and I'm bloated enough that it covers it. And then sometimes I'm not bloated at all and it's just like, well, that's that. Yeah. But... Oh, Harper's phone is ringing again. Do we have time for one more question? I feel like we've got a good amount of time left. So... Oh, yeah. I forgot. Yeah. Is it your turn? Yes, it is. Okay, I'll...
Okay. There we go. I feel like there are so many questions on this list, guys, that you guys asked that we are not going to be able to get through. I know. I feel so bad. I know. We have to do this again. We'll come back to it. If you guys like it. If y'all are like, we want Cash and Matt back, understandable. But respectfully, what's wrong with you? Yeah.
If you want Cash and Maverick back, you're probably a guy watching this right now. I wonder if guys do watch our podcast. There are boys that watch it. We get noticed by kids. Little kids. Like boys. Yeah. No. All right. Oh, shoot. I lost my place. Where did it go?
Did you, like, lose the note? Yeah. No, I'm here. Oh, okay. Where did it go? Anyways, what were you going to say, Harper? What's it called? Like, I feel like when there's awkward silence, the guys fill that in, but that's the only thing they're good for. That's literally what they do is, like, the second they hear any answer silence, they're like, that's what they do. And they make a joke that's not funny. I know. They'll, like, try to fill the silence because, like, they don't know how to just sit in peace. Yeah. Sometimes it's nice to just sit, like, like,
It's so nice sometimes. Did you find it? Yeah, wait, so this one has a heart next to it, but I don't remember answering it. What was it? So tell me if I'm just crazy and completely blanked out on that. How to deal with cramps, what to drink and avoid at that time. Oh. Yeah, we didn't say that. No, we didn't say that one, but there was a heart by it, I guess. Now, who put the heart by it? Honestly, like, I feel like
There are things you can do to help with your cramps. Obviously, Advil and a specific medicine for it is called Midol. It helps with all sort of like...
What are they called? Period symptoms. Yeah, symptoms. Like, the cramps, the bloating, the backaches. Because for some reason, it didn't happen to me when I was, like, younger. Like, as I've gotten older, I've gotten, like, severe, like, backaches and cramps. I've always had cramps. And, like, they've gotten, like, significantly worse the last, like, two years. But, like, the backaches are, like, crazy. But Midol is, like, perfect for that. And then heating pads...
are like your best friend. I love them. I know my sister loves her. They're so nice. Like I would highly recommend investing in a heating pad if like you're in pain. Yeah. I've never gotten period cramps. I don't get cramps either. I like really occasionally. And if I do, I'll just take like IV proof. I like,
some side like sometimes I get my period and it's like fine but there are some where it's like if I haven't gotten cramps the last couple of periods it'll hit me like a truck like yeah I felt so bad because like we actually when Cash and I finally realized that like we needed to go to a doctor for my PCOS before we knew what was happening um we went in that day and I went in and we did like the first meeting and she was like okay we're gonna do like an internal ultrasound which is like literally like and
inside of you. And so I was like, it hurt for you, right? Uh, well, yeah, because she was like, okay, I'm going to have you go to the bathroom and like empty your bladder. And so I went and it was like, when I went in there, I was like, of course I started my period like right now, like right before I'm supposed to do this ultrasound. Cause like I was sitting in the waiting room and I'm like, like,
Like, my cramps have gotten so bad that I start getting, like, lightheaded and, like, sweaty and clammy and, like, so bad. And, like, nauseous. And I'm, like, literally about to, like, pass out on cash. And he was like, are you okay? And I was like, no, like, not really. And then he passes out from the blood. I know. They always...
He did almost pass out when I was getting my blood drawn out of my arm. But different story. Does Midol help with nausea or is it just for cramps? It does, but it also just depends on how severe it is. I will take Advil and Midol when it's super bad, but
So I, like, get my... I, like, started my period, and I had to go back and tell the, like, doctor, because, like, I didn't know if that was, like, okay, because the last time that it happened, this is, like, the second ultrasound I was getting and the second time I started my period, like, right before, and, like, just my luck. And I told the last doctor, and she was like, oh, no, like, we'll have you come in, like, on a week you're not on your period. And I was like, okay. But this doctor was like, no, that's actually perfect. This is, like, the best time of month to do it. And I was like, okay. What? And so...
because you're just like more sensitive down there like during your period like everything like hurts so much worse it was so bad and then like the whole way home I was literally like sobbing like these were like the worst cramps I think I've ever experienced didn't we film a podcast after no we were supposed to but we canceled because I was so sick like I literally just like laid in bed and like rotted all day long it was so bad I couldn't imagine when I went to the doctor she asked to do an internal ultrasound and I was like heck no lady I will not
- I would not be doing that. - Well, it's not like, not even that that like hurts, but like when your uterus knows that like there's something in there that's not supposed to be in there, it's gonna like contract and like that's what causes cramps is the contractions. When you get cramps on your period, it's because the like lining of your uterus is like shedding and it's trying to like get that out. So like literally cramps together.
I know. So gross. I know. It's rough. You got it rough if you're a woman. I'm not going to lie. It's like not fun. And then it's like, I didn't know this until I like got diagnosed with PCOS, but like, like a man's hormone cycle is like a 24 hour one. Like their hormones reset every single day. Oh, like in the morning they wake up, they're like the most energized. It's when they want to get like work done. They want to go to the gym. By the end of the day, they're ready for bed. They're tired. Yeah. A woman's hormone cycle is like typically 28 days long. Oh, so it's like,
there's going to be like the week of your period where you're like super down and stuff. And then like two weeks later, you're like, you're high, you're perfect. You're loving life. Like everything's great for you. Like, it's literally like so confusing. There's so much to it. And like,
Most, like, women don't even understand it, but, like, especially men, like, they just don't understand, like, this week you're going to be extra sensitive. Yeah. This week you're going to be very happy. Like, there's a whole lot that goes into it that so many people just don't understand. So, like, when you're young and you're starting all of this, like, you just have to give yourself grace with it. Like... Yeah. That's why people, like, make so many jokes about, like, hormonal teenagers, because you freaking are. Yeah. Like, literally, like, you're so, like, mood-swinging and just, like...
Annoyed. Okay. It's so bad. Yeah. But like, that's literally just like part of being a teenager. Yeah, exactly. You just have to like understand that and give yourself grace. Yeah. During that time. Well,
Well, that's... No, I'm kidding. This has been so fun, though. We got to do it again. We need to do it again. Please, guys. I'm actually in peace. I know. It's been fun. Well, if you guys like this, if you guys want to see more episodes without the boys on, because I personally enjoyed this quite much. I have, too. It's been really fun. But if you guys want to see this again, let us know. Thank you guys so much for watching our little Girl Talk episode. I hope you guys have a great rest of your day. Bye. Bye.
