What's up, my galloping Gigglers?

**Paige DeSorbo** (0:18)
That's a good one. We've been really horse-themed recently. I'm not sure why.

**Hannah Berner** (0:23)
You created a lot of backlash, because everyone was like, we have a horse team in Texas. It's called the Mavericks, you dumb bitch.

**Paige DeSorbo** (0:30)
You can't just say that to me. Like, you've created a lot of backlash. Like, that will put me into a literal spiral.

**Hannah Berner** (0:37)
That's the kind of backlash I love to have.

**Paige DeSorbo** (0:39)
Like, oh, my God.

**Hannah Berner** (0:42)
I wouldn't let Paige start the pod, because I'm trying to put together the perfect text message. That's a name drop to Maria Sherpova. And obviously, everything, it's either, like, way too lovey-dovey or, like, not giving it the justice it deserves.

**Paige DeSorbo** (0:57)
How old is she? Is she our age?

**Hannah Berner** (0:59)
This is the thing. She raised me, but she's only, like, three years older than me, because she won Wembley in 17

**Paige DeSorbo** (1:06)
Is she the youngest woman to win?

**Hannah Berner** (1:09)
There were younger, like, 15-, 16-year-olds. There was a time where girls were winning, like, pretty young, and she came in and beat Serena Williams in the final of Wimbledon at 17 years old, and everyone's like, a star is born. It was Lady Gaga.

**Paige DeSorbo** (1:21)
How old was Serena Williams at the time?

**Hannah Berner** (1:24)
I think in her 20s, but, like, it was her prime. So everyone was like, oh, Serena has got this girl.
No, yeah, I'm, like, starting to process it yesterday, but let's, before we get into it...

**Paige DeSorbo** (1:35)
I'm just trying to think, like, wait, what's the greatest thing I ever did at 17? And I think it was, like, that was the year that everyone was like, Paige can do hair.

**Hannah Berner** (1:44)
Well, like, you could do other people's hair?

**Paige DeSorbo** (1:46)
Yeah, but I really couldn't, but for whatever reason, I was on the prom circuit.

**Hannah Berner** (1:51)
Oh, so you just had good PR. You weren't actually... It was all smoke and mirrors.
You got lucky once, and then you, like, it ran, like, wildfire.

**Paige DeSorbo** (2:00)
I had phenomenal PR in high school. If I could bring back my PR from high school into now... I was mysterious, no one really knew. Does she drink? We don't know.
Does she have a boyfriend? She's very candid.

**Hannah Berner** (2:15)
What was the hair, your go-to hairstyle? Like, when a girl came up to you and was like, I need my hair done, you were like, this is the Paige look.

**Paige DeSorbo** (2:21)
Okay, I'm not kidding. I straight up was a consultant at, like, my senior year of high school. Girls would come to my locker, be like, this is the dress. What are the shoes, accessories, and the hair? And I'd be like...

**Hannah Berner** (2:32)
You're smoking a cigarette. You're like, okay.

**Paige DeSorbo** (2:35)
Pulled to the side, cascading. Are you following me? Like, I'm like, not a necklace. That will be detrimental to your well-being. It's an earring. It's a larger earring. It's a bracelet and a shoe. We don't see the shoe. It's a clear, loose... Like, I would go off.

**Hannah Berner** (2:51)
I think you need to consult with my sister, Majini, because Lois, she's taking it next level. She refused to wear her soccer jersey because she said it was too big and ugly.

**Paige DeSorbo** (3:03)
Well, been there, done that. I quit. I quit T-ball, okay? I said, Mom, what the hell is this? I said, No, I'm not going.
Lois is me. I am Lois. Well, you want to know what is funny? I got tagged. I kept getting tagged in this Instagram, like, real. So like, finally, I'm watching it, and it's this mom being like, my daughter's going to her first day of kindergarten, and I'm freaking out because she picked out an outfit, and I'm scared that the teachers are going to be like, you're a bad mom, basically. So I'm like, watching this video, watching this, I'm like, waiting for the outfit. I'm like, it's going to be something crazy, like a bathing suit and all this stuff.
I see the outfit. I go, honey, you should take notes from your daughter. That is the perfect first day outfit I've ever seen.

**Hannah Berner** (3:49)
It's called editorial.

**Paige DeSorbo** (3:52)
I go, it's giving classy, it's giving professional, but it's giving whimsy. It's giving I can move.
I'm like, I think your daughter's worried about you, babe. I think she's worried how you're gonna show up to bring her on her first day. Now, when I was a child, I didn't have that angst because my mom, she would walk in as a chaperone for a field trip, and I would be like, you other bitches could never. I would literally look at other girls and be like, do you see your mom? Look at my mom.
