12 May 2026

Transcription

Chapter 1: What humorous anecdotes do Hannah and Paige share about their daily lives?

0.031 - 3.299 Hannah Berner

What's up, gigglers?

0

3.781 - 5.646 Unknown

Harriet, fix the Wi-Fi.

0

5.666 - 7.21 Hannah Berner

Manifest that shit.

0

7.23 - 14.749 Unknown

We can't be managed. I mean, the day just got away from me.

0

15.623 - 36.606 Hannah Berner

What is up, my goulash gigglers? Do you know what goulash is? It's feeling very fall. It is fall. I was going to say you have no culture, but it is fall. Isn't it like ground beef? It's a Hungarian dish. Anyway, welcome to the pod. There's been so many women this time of the week. Now that they know it's a thing, I feel like the women are like... Cancelled.

36.626 - 44.394 Paige DeSorbo

No, truly, I think this segment is done. In true Giggly Squad fashion, we beat it to the dead horse.

44.414 - 61.078 Hannah Berner

Like... Can I do one another one, though? Yeah. OK, so this video is going around going viral of this woman's shopping in Target and she's being filmed and you're from the whatever. Anyway, a girl comes, sees she's being filmed by a man.

61.359 - 61.659 Paige DeSorbo

Yeah.

61.679 - 64.243 Hannah Berner

And goes, excuse me, that man's filming you.

Chapter 2: How do they discuss the concept of road rage and its implications?

149.854 - 177.236 Paige DeSorbo

He's like waving to the daughter like see after school. He's on the sidewalk. He's kind of like lingering on the sidewalk now for like five minutes. He's like on his phone a little bit. He's just standing there. He's watching the daughter play. From an outside perspective, if you didn't watch him drop her off, you'd be like, who is this guy on the sidewalk just watching this little girl play?

0

177.396 - 197.45 Paige DeSorbo

A car pulls up. A woman is in the car. She yells, hey, what's going on here? The teacher inside of the school is like, everything's okay. And then I don't know what the dad said because I couldn't hear, but he turned to the car, but I was like, woman instead.

0

197.47 - 200.695 Hannah Berner

Actually, I saw an article about a man who...

0

200.675 - 226.412 Hannah Berner

adopted his own child without a wife or a girlfriend and people were like mind blown because it's true how many men do you hear like i couldn't find the right person so i just like a single dad so i just wanted to adopt or like a single guy who gets a surrogate yes yes you never hear those stories you never hear definitely out there they're out there but we've never come it's never come across my desk

0

226.392 - 231.725 Paige DeSorbo

Somebody, you know, it did come across my desk. Someone was like, Paige, Ryan Murphy did make a Monica Lewinsky show.

231.745 - 241.448 Hannah Berner

No, people were messaging me. They were like, last episode was the most chaotic episode you guys have ever had on Giggly Squad. And they were like, Paige made up a show that's already been made. I was like, genius.

241.428 - 247.539 Unknown

You casted the entire show accurately with the director, the showrunner, the main cast. She goes, what if?

248.12 - 249.242 Hannah Berner

This is crazy.

249.262 - 274.184 Paige DeSorbo

Do you think you saw it and it just subconsciously was in your... I had to have. But someone said it was one season of American Horror Story. It wasn't like... It's not like the JFK Jr. It wasn't like advertised as its own show. I want like a. A real Monica Lewinsky. Yeah. I want like multiple seasons. Yeah. Yeah. Anyway, hi, how are you?

Chapter 3: What are the comedic insights on social interactions and friendships?

354.816 - 356.198 Paige DeSorbo

Did we pass by that too fast?

0

356.178 - 373.749 Hannah Berner

My problem is I have one speed when I walk and I'm not trying to be like, I'm a New Yorker, I walk fast. I think I just have anxiety and I'm like, if we're walking, we're walking. I'm not like slowly walking anywhere unless I'm on like, no, I'm not. Unless I'm like with a dog who needs to pee, I'm not stopping. Which I've never been walking a dog.

0

374.269 - 397.22 Hannah Berner

So after the show, I got back to like this like chic, cool West Hollywood hotel. And I don't know, there's something about like after a long night in heels, like they just... After our show. After our show. It's a different heel than you started the night with. Like it feels completely different. Yeah. And it's like the heels are a little big for me and like they just couldn't stay on my feet.

0

397.56 - 414.754 Hannah Berner

So I had to walk through this like... And it wasn't just a lobby. It was like a lobby chic bar, which was like bright with like pool tables and couches and everyone just lounging. And L.A. is so like whenever anyone walks in, everyone has to like look you up and down. Yeah. So I'm like, I have to walk 100 feet.

0

415.576 - 415.716

Mm hmm.

416.253 - 436.801 Hannah Berner

in these heels and I swear to God, I was like, everyone was like laughing at me because I was a deer in the headlights. I couldn't walk, but I was like, it's YSL. And I was just like trying to. It's YSL windbreaker. But what do you do when you're wearing uncomfortable heels and everyone's looking at you? Like, how do you maneuver that athletically?

436.841 - 441.568 Hannah Berner

Especially because you famously say that you can fit into any size shoe.

441.548 - 471.353 Paige DeSorbo

When I was in ninth grade, my mom held a class in my kitchen for all my girlfriends who could not walk in. She didn't have my number at the time. I think because, look, you started sport at a young age, so you're really good at tennis. When I first saw heels as a child, I was like... Yeah, I love whatever the fuck those things are. I love them.

471.693 - 474.841 Paige DeSorbo

So I've been truly walking in heels since kindergarten.

Chapter 4: How do they relate personal experiences to broader societal themes?

483.601 - 484.262 Hannah Berner

No, I can't.

0

484.951 - 486.635 Paige DeSorbo

It's honestly, it's practice.

0

486.655 - 496.218 Hannah Berner

Because I'm not hugging it in the right way. Like, I don't know. You're not gripping at the right time. I'm not gripping. And then I also like, it hurts my toenail. I also have a wide foot.

0

496.759 - 503.415 Paige DeSorbo

I'm trying to like picture how I do it. I guess when your toe is about to come up off the ground, that's when you grip.

0

503.395 - 513.31 Hannah Berner

Yeah, I do not have the right gripping situation. It's almost like SoulCycle when I know what I'm supposed to do with the rhythm of the flow, but you got to practice.

514.391 - 534.161 Paige DeSorbo

Well, it's also kind of like diving into a pool. You can't just go. You have to start out small, so you really have to start out with a kitten heel. You have to walk around and then you have to build yourself up to like a five inch stiletto. You can't just be born in a stiletto.

534.181 - 538.949 Hannah Berner

I think we've all been there where you see a shoe you like and I'm like, I'm buying it. And you put it on, you're like, I look great.

538.969 - 548.083 Paige DeSorbo

But you didn't factor in like that you have to move in it. And if a shoe is a little bit too big and you're not experienced in walking in a heel, you can't do it. I'd actually even say go smaller.

548.063 - 551.548 Hannah Berner

This might be too niche, but I'm an eight in sneakers.

Chapter 5: What are the challenges and humor in navigating relationships?

658.979 - 688.566 Paige DeSorbo

And I'll take a step back and I'll be like, maybe shut your mouth. Maybe you shouldn't be so confident in this area that you have no idea about. Maybe. And it's not until it's an afterthought, which is not great. We're at the Netflix brunch. This lovely man comes up to me. He says hi. He gives me his job title. Pretty high up at Netflix in unscripted. And we're chatting.

0

688.586 - 699.418 Paige DeSorbo

We're going back and forth. And he didn't ask me what I thought about their live reunions. But let me tell you something. I told him what I thought. We're talking about like reality TV and we're talking about reunions.

0

699.398 - 706.106 Unknown

By the way, no one's going to want to have a business meeting with us ever because we repeat every business meeting on this pod verbatim. It wasn't even a business meeting.

0

706.126 - 709.21 Paige DeSorbo

He was literally asking me to like pass something to him.

0

709.23 - 723.668 Hannah Berner

And before you say what you're about to say, I, on the corner of my eye, I left Paige for a second and she's sitting down alone with a man. So I stopped my conversation. I go, hold on one second. I have to like, we might need to stop, drop and roll. Like, I don't know if she's safe.

723.648 - 731.143 Paige DeSorbo

Nobody talks about the look you give your friend who's trying to help you when you're really like, no, actually, I am OK.

731.163 - 747.614 Hannah Berner

It's literally ninja because you have to walk behind the guy. She looks at you. She can't make a weird face because then she's put in a vulnerable position. She has to do it through her eyes. If you weren't speaking, I'd be like, I need to get him out. But you seemed very passionate about what you were saying.

747.634 - 768.065 Paige DeSorbo

Well, I was dialed in. And tell them what you were saying. And I don't even know how we got on this subject, but I was like, I have watched reunions before of seasons that I've never watched of television just because a reunion's exciting, blah, blah, blah, whatever. And I... Said to him, I was like, except I don't like that Netflix does the reunions live.

768.226 - 791.762 Paige DeSorbo

I don't think you would ever be able to get the amount of content the viewer is looking for and the specific content and answers they're looking for in one hour of live TV. I was like, you have to film that for at least eight to 10 hours, even to just cut it up into one good hour. And he just like looked at me and he was like... I feel like he was kind of like, who do you think you are?

Chapter 6: How do Hannah and Paige address the topic of mental health?

825.351 - 844.257 Hannah Berner

Well, the Rose, now they can cut it down to all the favorite one-liners that came out of those three hours. But I will again say, Chelsea Handler discovered Kevin Hart. She put him on her show, Chelsea, lately. And Kevin gives her all the flowers. Kevin's in love with her. But I felt like the other boys...

0

844.237 - 869.215 Hannah Berner

were like even after she did her her set she looked she looked phenomenal but even after her set they were like thanks Chelsea like if she was a man they would be sucking her dick I know there were only two girls up there they only had two comics that were women which is bonkers right right right right oh yeah um but Chelsea held her own and they like came at her like really hard and

0

869.195 - 873.845 Hannah Berner

Like, if they did the normal, like, you're a whore, you're old, but then they were, like, giving her, like, accusations.

0

874.125 - 886.712 Paige DeSorbo

You know what's funny is that, like, men will always, like, criticize female comedy, and it'll be like, all they talk about is, like, their vaginas. Yeah, Shane made that joke. And it's like, okay, like, you talk about what you know, and, like, we have ones.

0

887.694 - 887.794

Yeah.

887.774 - 899.417 Paige DeSorbo

I never understood why they got so mad about that. And it's like, okay, fine. But anytime they talk about a woman in comedy, it's like, she's a whore. And it's like, okay, think of a better word.

900.038 - 907.453 Hannah Berner

Chelsea doesn't just talk about her pussy. Chelsea talks about MDMA a lot. Chelsea talks a lot about drugs. She talks about her house in Majorca, her dogs.

907.433 - 918.799 Paige DeSorbo

Well, Chelsea has good life experience stories that you want to listen to that you're like, oh my God, I'd never find myself in that type of situation. That's why it's entertainment and fun to listen to.

918.819 - 924.632 Hannah Berner

Also, Chelsea blew up because of being a good interviewer where she'd get her guests to open up and then shit all over them and people loved it.

Chapter 7: What are their thoughts on the art of comedy and roasting?

987.238 - 1006.446 Hannah Berner

And then she came out there and I feel like she brought everyone together because they were making insane jokes about her husband who passed away. who she was down for it because you can make so many jokes about it. And she was like, that's part of my life. But she came up there and she said, we need to stick together. We have to laugh. We have to be open. We have to communicate with each other.

0

1006.486 - 1014.858 Hannah Berner

So that was a really beautiful message. And then she fucking murdered. And she's like a Christian comic and was so dirty.

0

1014.898 - 1025.534 Paige DeSorbo

It was so funny. But when a comedian is like, not even bombing, just like maybe one joke, I can't, like I physically have to... Well, there's this.

0

1025.795 - 1042.268 Hannah Berner

I can't watch. There's like a really smart roast joke. And then there's the edgelord roast jokes where it's for shock value. It's like cringe comedy. And the only way it works is if it's smart. And sometimes they say it and it's not smart. And you're just like, you just want to say that word.

0

1042.248 - 1058.94 Hannah Berner

right which is not a joke that was just i hate cringe comedy cringe well cringe comedy is an art form that i'd say only meg stalter has perfected like she's perfected it where like you sit in it and you're so scared but you're like she'll take me through this we will get through

1058.92 - 1068.23 Paige DeSorbo

That's so true because I don't find her comedy cringe. I almost find it like it's a bit that I wasn't read in on that everyone else knows and I want to know what it is.

1068.25 - 1073.055 Hannah Berner

Yes, and that's how cringe comedy should feel. It shouldn't feel like everyone's cringing.

1073.235 - 1073.515 Paige DeSorbo

Yeah.

1073.795 - 1086.309 Hannah Berner

I don't even know how you perfect that. Like how many bombs did she have to do before she was like, and that's the perfect amount of cringe. Yeah, or just like how she comes up with things.

Chapter 8: How do they wrap up the episode with reflections on personal growth?

1089.413 - 1102.271 Hannah Berner

I don't know what that means. She's transforming, like, press tours. We are sleep experts. No, we are. But we're also honest, and sometimes we don't sleep perfectly. Everyone's upset.

0

1102.591 - 1120.892 Paige DeSorbo

A lot of things do keep me up at night. Like, I have to have the perfect temperature. I have to have the volume at a certain level. And sometimes Kitty, like... She's not an outdoor cat, but she will bring me treats in the middle of the night. And one of them is like her stuffed animal mouse. And I'm like, thank you so much. I didn't need it on my forehead at 5 a.m.

0

1121.172 - 1124.936 Hannah Berner

What keeps me up at night is sometimes my husband. Just having someone else in your bed.

0

1124.956 - 1125.797 Paige DeSorbo

I told you not to.

0

1125.937 - 1135.986 Hannah Berner

And that's why my mattress firm mattress is amazing because mattress firm matched me with a mattress that has cooling technology so that even if my husband is warm, I stay cool.

1136.346 - 1156.168 Paige DeSorbo

And that's why our marriage works. And Mattress Firm matched me with a mattress that has movement isolation. So if Kitty ever like jumps up there and causes a ruckus at nighttime, I'm just like not feeling it. Cause Kitty's not light anymore. Okay. I'm telling her you said that. You also can compare like a tour bed to your regular bed.

1156.328 - 1167.801 Hannah Berner

Oh my God. When I'm on tour, it just doesn't feel like home. There's nothing like after a long day, jumping into your Mattress Firm mattress and just feeling like this is where I belong. And Mattress Firm truly

1168.777 - 1174.106 Paige DeSorbo

I have the best mattress in America. I also have an adjustable base bed, which people don't talk about enough. What is that?

1174.146 - 1175.409 Hannah Berner

Oh, like you can go up and down?
