Hannah and Paige discuss gender dynamics in sports, workplace harassment, personal grooming experiences, and upcoming Netflix specials. They explore themes of toxic masculinity, women's empowerment, and relationship dynamics while sharing personal anecdotes about beauty treatments, cats, and entertainment industry observations.
Insights
- Women's workplace harassment is systemic and normalized; nearly all women have experienced inappropriate male behavior, suggesting institutional culture problems rather than individual incidents
- Gender performance in relationships is contextual and responsive to partner behavior, not inherent personality traits; women adopt 'masculine energy' as a survival mechanism in insecure relationships
- Media representation and visibility directly impact sports viewership and respect; women's sports gain traction when given equal platform access and coverage
- Generational change in masculinity requires active parenting and cultural shift; Gen Z boys are regressing due to entitlement rather than progressing despite millennial parenting efforts
- Female entrepreneurship and business leadership outperforms male-led ventures in stability and detail-orientation; women's nurturing approach translates to better business outcomes
Trends

Also, I have to set the stage for the giggler. Set the scene. It's 10 p.m. I'm in my Daphne, no pants, ready to go to bed. Did get a spray tan, so I'm feeling myself. But Paige is in full glam. Had a full day in Hollywood doing Hollywood things. I'm in my full Daphne. I got a spray tan yesterday. Yours is a little darker than mine. okay so i went a little dark because i was like it has to last till sunday i'm obsessed with this woman she was she was an artist she wasn't a spray tan person she was an artist and as a spray tan artist it takes one to know one it takes them to know one game recognizes game she said to me at the end like look a lot of girls don't like to like sit in it anymore because they're used to like the quick quick ones and i'm like i love marinating and she's like eight to ten hours and I said honey I love laying in bed for eight to ten hours I got you so what made her what differentiated her mixing up her own stuff okay a potion not just throwing a bottle in there mixing up her own stuff and then her technique was it was a ballet it was truly it was a woman a soft touch you love a soft i love a soft touch um she was like also i feel no pain when it comes to beauty like she's like it's really cold and i'm like literally do whatever you need to do well i had my america's next step model week where i got it okay you know what's crazy is like this is a normal week for me this is yeah this is your like days off yeah this is my hobby page this is so me so i'm walking trying to get trying to find this facial place and as you know i just googled and i like the photo of some place and these gigglers stopped me they said hannah what are you doing because i was just lost on a corner um normally people see me i'm doing something weird i was literally like turning around lost and they're like what are you looking for and i'm like i'm trying to find this place and they're like oh are you going to this facialist and i'm like never heard of them before and they're like we're the best you should have and i'm like well should have told me before I booked this yeah so I get to the place it's locked also it was like in the back of a back alley no one's there she ends up texting me and like arrives to open the place and I'm like okay this is okay gets the worm okay this was this was 5 p.m but um okay I got dermaplanes she did cut me a little okay by the nose but I assume that's a risk that you take whenever you get dermaplaned maybe then i go to get my nails done when i tell you it was like an snl sketch she looks at me and she goes you have a lot of skin i thought i've hit every insecurity a person could have she's i'm like what does that mean i have a lot of skin wait what does that mean i feel like she was taking out the cuticles and i guess it was like taking forever okay i don't know i didn't have a follow-up i said sorry as you do what do you say i said i am so sorry miss you're like i got it from my dad i don't know and then you know i hate like getting stuff done so she was like do you want a pedicure and you know that i need a pedicure but you know that i don't want to sit for a pedicure so i was like oh no thank you i don't have time but she was you could tell she wanted me to do more things so then she started being like chin wax i was like okay ma'am she's an eyebrow wax you want to know what i want i want who's ever performing something on me to have no boundaries yes like she was literally looking me up and down being like you can't leave here we have work to do and i kept saying thank you but no thank you noted noted um but then i got derma planed and she got my beard off and then i got a spray tan and I leave tomorrow morning for Toronto and we pray. Yeah, I was just going to say we're saying our prayers. But I was going to say I feel a lot less stressed because the first Netflix special was The Unknown. I didn't know what I signed up for. I was scared. Now, I've been in Hollywood, baby. I've been in this business. We're both taking beta blockers this weekend. Multiple ones. Yeah. You can't help but the adrenaline to start pumping. Right. I'm excited. Anyway, how is L.A.? You know, LA is LA. I did something real. I hate that I'm even going to say this. I did something really cool today, but I can't say what it was. And I can say in like a couple weeks. I hate when people say that. But let me just put like a top line on it. It was my dream. You want to know what? Where I went, my phone was taped. So like I couldn't take any pictures or anything. And I looked at everyone with me and I was like, guys, have we ever been more in the moment than we are right now? Like it actually was so nice because none of us had our phones. And so we were all just like looking at each other like, this is crazy. Like, I can't believe we're doing this. It was like a field trip. Yeah, it was a literal field trip. And like Miss Frizzle was there. Like it was so much fun. Speaking of third grade, I was getting DMs saying that people were making fun of you because you said, remember when we learned the alphabet in third grade? I know. They were like, oh, middle school. Guys, you know what the fuck I meant. Okay. Get the hell out of my DMs with that bullshit. I'm worked up tonight. Ooh, yes. Go off. Okay. Last time we recorded, when we were talking about, like, the hockey thing, I, like, hadn't really seen the full video. Like, I, like, saw, like, a clip of it. Like, I knew it was going on, but I didn't, like, really, really know until you were, like, and you describe all our sports to us. I'm on the ground. now the aftermath of the men making first of all no men should be making videos videos are for girls tiktok is for girls the men making videos being like you guys are overreacting you know what it also is it's literally just i had to be like the patriarchy but it's a bunch of men being like girls have cooties let's not invite the girls and then all the men just hanging out together being like sucking each other's dicks like it's they're so scared of women being good at something it's also so funny that they're so dumb to not even understand the nuance of it like their rebuttal being like but the men like publicly were so like they went to the girls games and they were so supportive and we're like right that's the fucking point that we're trying to make publicly you thought that like that was okay but behind closed doors so all your public shit negated it like we only care about gay hockey players which i'm sure half of you are like that's why you're so mad at us yeah and then i don't know if you saw clips of like wait and never did i think that flavor was going to be one of the number one feminists in the year 2026 i mean what is happening what is literally happening do you know eileen goo the skier i don't she's like a super model she's like a super you love her she looks like this is a girl that's like 22 years old and it's like so fucking smart and like eloquent and they're talking yeah she's talking about neuroplasticity and the guys are like let us make bad jokes also look i'm the first one who loves a joke not a good joke it's like we're not in elementary school like let's not invite the girls like good one it's also like good guys it took you 40 years you're losers like like i was talking to a guy about this and he was like well i don't know if you understand that like it's like a big game because it's 40 years i'm like do i understand that they've sucked for 40 years no i get that like i get it as we're seeing in a lot of these sports i always say like i'm not saying men and women are the same they're different and that's okay and they should but they should be treated with equal respect and different sometimes means that people enjoy watching women's sports more for example some people love watching women's tennis more than men's tennis because because it's more complicated in terms of strategy because their serves aren't as big so it's not just holding serve with girls tennis crazier stuff happens it's more entertaining there's longer points and like women's golf people like to see there's just like so many different things and women's basketball also there's reasons people like it more and as we're getting more visibility the men better watch out they better watch out don't you have a fucking mom call your mom and say this but this is the thing i'm so sick of these men being like i didn't know and then i had a daughter you shouldn't have to have a fucking daughter oh girl that is so annoying man and also i personally like a lot of these athlete men not good people and i've heard a lot of women and i'm not gonna match generalizing but raise your hand if you've been personally victimized also not to like take this to a serious note but like the whole like not all men i don't have a single friend i do not have one single female friend who has not been in a situation where a man either inappropriately touched her, did something to her. I'm getting a spray tan and the woman's telling me how she had to leave her last job because the guy was hitting on her and she didn't hit on him back and she couldn't tell his boss because the boss was creepier than him. And it's so crazy you said that because, yes, some guy, there was a podcast going around and the guy was like yeah I got broken hearted What the worst thing that happened to you and the girl was like i was assaulted and the girl next to her goes so was i one time i was in college and i like went to this job interview for like an internship and the boss of like i was at a news station like this was like a local fucking news station and the head of the like the head of the news I had to meet with the director or whatever I don't even know what his goddamn title was he made me so uncomfortable that I I walked out was in the parking lot started crying called my mom immediately drove to school went into my like professor's office who like sets up all the interviews told it was thank god it was a woman told her what happened she immediately got up on the phone called him and was like our school will never participate in any of your internships moving forward like you're done because I was like I don't want any girl ever going and working there and then while I'm in the interview mind you I'm like 19 years old when I'm in the interview one of the male news anchors Facebook messages me I really hope you work here I was like yo what the fuck goes on at this news station it was and this was in my hometown like I was so uncomfortable I ended up going and working at a different news station but that's a great example of like an environment that they're creating that it's okay for men to act like that yeah and that was literally what we're watching on tv a bunch of men just being like who gives a fuck if the women feel disrespected who gives a fuck if they're the butt of the joke we don't give a fuck and that was my first time ever having that happen with a man in the workplace then I went to New York City and the guy threw his keys at me but I digress you know that was like honestly we're not even gonna get we'll get to our super traumatic stories another day we we're trying to it's fried but I will say no I actually will say this made me really really be so excited to raise a son like beyond excited because i'm like oh this generation like us being moms and having sons that's it we're done like it's over there's no more of like your bullshit like girls aren't as good like it's really what it is is the men see us as like second class citizens like they they They do not see us as equal. None of them. They don't. Anyway, so one more thing about these men. Who the fuck told you guys that you're good looking enough to have a goddamn mullet? Enough. Enough. Well, they're overcompensating. The mullet guys are overcompensating. You look like imbeciles. You literally look like rats. The mullet guys are just trying to distract from something. either a bad personality um bad things they're doing that they don't want you to see they're like look i'm silly i have a mullet while they're like literally being the worst person in the world um it's just like it's also just like disgusting like you look stupid but again that's for other men they get mullets for other men which you know what is it's like a weird peacocking like symbol wait men love like impressing each other and it's so freaking weird but i do have to say i thought that this generation of gen z boys was going to be amazing because the millennials we had such a strong well it's backfired because they think the women are like trying to take their jobs where it's like no one's trying to take your job you got to go to college first to get a job you gotta talk to people to get a job the men are dropping out of college at an egregious rate it's insane because they just want it handed to them the girls we've just been taught to like work hard if we want to make our dreams come true so anyway i digress um speaking of men i'm like a really like i'm in a really man you're jacked up right now speaking of men i was in st louis When I tell you there's two men who are so handsome in the second row of my show, like you can they're sitting. I can tell they're six three. You can tell a strong torso. I can tell that these women stand up and it's going to be like, I can know a torso from a mile away. And these men, their shoulders jacked and their chiseled jawlines. and this is missouri so they're just wearing you know normal midwest clothes and i'm so fucking full of myself i'm like okay the two hottest men in missouri were like we have to go see the hannah burner show and i would have called them out in the beginning but they're so hot i was like didn't want to get them angry i got nervous i did i did at one point i was like they keep staring at me this is crazy they're obsessed with me they're obsessed like the whole show staring at me and then towards the end i finally am like look i have to say it everyone feels weird why are you two sitting next to each other because you know we don't like when two men sit next to each other at the show they form alliances it makes people uncomfortable and i go and they just are looking at me stern handsome gorgeous and i go you two better be fucking each other were they they both are like we are oh thank god they look like the two football players in a rom-com that are just like the stars of the football team sitting next to each other googly eye over me and i said thank you for coming to my show um how did you guys meet and they were like at the gym and i was like i know your bodies are gorgeous i can tell under your shirts and they i said how did you like approach each other in the locker room and they were like i gave him a look and i realized straight girls are not aware of the gay look that is rampant i am rampant so you can see when they the look happens i i feel like no hannah this is not even just in my imagination i feel like i've watched straight guys do it where i'm like to other gay men yeah because there's a look they give which is big like straight girls you don't we don't have it in our repertoire like will i fuck but like there's a whole different gay male gaze that they communicate with each other on a different way because i think that i think that they do it quicker than like a straight girl and a straight guy like i fucking because they had to there's so many men that have yeah that have to be like dl that it's so quick i was in a situation one time and i was like convinced that the guy i was dating was like making out i can't even get into it i actually can't even do it because you know what what's wrong with me that i was like and that's fine and that's okay like and i'll stay that's actually a great question that's right you know i think it was like i was just so emotionally unavailable but i wouldn't admit it but you know what i get so many messages from girls who were like i hate him he's mean to me i don't like his friends like give me all these reasons and then they're like should i break up like i'm like you've given me no pros in this this list you've given i'm like okay so he murdered my dog but like he was old um my cds are in his car I was gonna say this is like the first time I've been away from kitty in a while Oh babe I'm sorry And I'm doing

Just give us one hit of like what, from your perspective, what's it like in the trenches of it? And then go home. What about when it's raining? Get an umbrella. That's why they invented them. But not girls. No. Not girls. No, because they have an outfit. If girls want to stay in, they're like, yeah, if they want to stay in the studio, they can stay in the studio. If it's a little humid, she shouldn't have to go outside. because then her hair could get kind of like fuzzy not fuzzy what is it called um staticky yeah i was just gonna say something now i forgot oh speaking of hair i looked up the ice skater because when you said that like oh she has like halos in her hair i don't know what i was like expecting that's what the gen z's call it yeah and then i looked it up it actually looked so cool when she had it in a pony when she was doing her routine well i think she put it in a bun out of like kind of a respect thing to be like okay i'm not gonna die it back but i'll put it in a bun did you get points deducted for it i don't know but you know what i do know they all do their own makeup really when i watch the documentary they're all like like us before a show just when i'm on the road just in the mirror of the hotel room putting on their makeup and i'm like they shouldn't have to worry about glam. I was seeing they were talking about this about traitors too that they all do their own glam. I don't know if I believe that. I mean Maura Higgins her glam is insane. No she was like she was doing her own good for her. And I think she was wearing wigs. Yeah. Because she was always like had different hairstyles and like would have a hat on. So which is actually so fucking smart of her because that's it like the hair is done you just have to like put it on your head you're so right and she threw a hat on yeah but not all of us can pull off a hat especially like the wild hats how much how early were they getting up to like do glam and then start i would i literally it's intense would never want to do it it's two weeks it's like do it two weeks and then you're done it's not like a six month event one of the girls natalie everyone's making fun of her for her outfit so obviously i sympathize and not for from what oh from traders well she's it's funny because they'll be eating breakfast and she'll walk in just with like a bodycon a bodycon dress or she looks like she's like a female wrestler she's also like a weightlifter so she's you could tell like she's not normally wearing these fancy clothes she's basically dressing how she thought she should and everyone's making fun of her whatever so she says she's like she's like I wish I hired a stylist but like she's like I'm from Survivor we just had to show up and survive like I didn't know this was a fashion walk but the truth is is Traders is kind of a fashion show well it's also like people are just so mean to women it's like crazy like if sorry if you feel comfortable and I don't even watch the show if you feel comfortable enough going what's her name Danielle Natalie Natalie if you feel comfortable enough going on Natalie's Instagram and commenting your outfit sucks get a life she's also like gorgeous and so strong and just like an amazing personality um i'm sure she's lovely she's also classic this is oh okay this is where the traders is funny when you're a woman on the traders if you're loud people are like she's a crazy bitch I don't trust her but if you're a loud man you're assertive he's everyone listens to him we're like Natalie was loud and everyone's like she's a villain schemer and then when the girls are quiet it's like they think they're up to something but when a man is quiet he's just smart they had a literal kidnapper on the cast like check the trunk of that guy's car what are we talking about are you kidding like god forbid she wore a strapless shirt to breakfast this guy could be murdering people i watch rupaul's drag race now i finished season 12 and now i'm starting season seven why why are you going in such a weird order great question i don't know i think because i i don't know i'm sure the gigglers can tell you because like when i first started love island many many moons ago i was told like start at season two and then go you know so i'm sure the gigglers can give you like the best seasons i think five and six are the best i also trixie and katya have like an amazing podcast so i want to see their season wait actually tell me what season that is because i am obsessed with their clips i feel like they're us if we were gay men no i well i was a gay man i feel like i'm m1 right now i have so much testosterone but yet i love glam wait i was gonna pitch this to you off the pod but i think it's the perfect time great to do hannah and page do drag yeah and we have to get drag queens to put us in full drag outfit walk lip sync i fear i'm gonna love it i fear like that is who i am now can i ask the hardest question i've ever asked on this pod sure who do you think has more testosterone me or you okay actually because like i've wait because i had when i froze my eggs you have to get your blood tested well you have to do it like every other day when you're getting freezing your eggs but you go in for like your initial blood test. And I, that's why my doctor like originally thought I had PCOS because I had so much testosterone. Yeah. You never cried. And you were kind of misogynistic. I'm no better than a man. I'm no better than a man. No, I really, no, I definitely have a high test. You punched a wall. you would slap my ass for no reason someone cheated on me in the fifth grade and i never got over it okay that's why i am the way that i am have some compassion no literally did you get tested after the egg retrieval and you've balanced a little no so then when i was doing my egg retrieval and they were giving me like more like way more than i should be having i was like leveled out i was like i actually was obsessed with you during your egg retrieval you were personally i was a joy i was a pleasure to have around a pleasure in class truly a pleasure you had empathy you were asking people questions i was helping old ladies across the street like I was doing the most You were picking up litter they immediately took those eggs out of me and i was like fuck you fuck your mom and i fuck your dad like i was no and did i ever go like get checked after no i definitely am still but i will say after i froze my eggs my period has never been more regular that's amazing so i I think maybe like it did even me out a little bit. Like some people will tell girls like you're in your masculine energy. You're not going to find a man. What do you think about that? Hannah, that's an amazing question. And I have an amazing answer. Being feminine is very different than being. I don't even want to say the word submissive because I feel like that's like almost a little bit harsh. No, but submissive is kind of like the traditional. when you're in a relationship with a man being no being feminine is like a personality trait but i would say being like nurturing or like being soft or like being like oh yeah like whatever i guess like a form of submissive is not a personality trait it's like a response to how you treat me so like i've had so many boyfriends where i'm like okay and now i guess i'm a fucking man because I have to be in charge of all this goddamn bullshit. Where like, then you get into relationships with men and I'm like, I'm so silly. And I'm like, wait, what if we like stayed up late and like talked about everything? And that is just like a response to how that man makes you feel. It's a response level to your security. So like, yeah, have I been in certain relationships and I'm like, I'm so fucking masculine right now? Yes. But is it because of me? No. I hate to say it. That's literally exactly what I was going to say. Because I've been told in the past, like, oh, you're in your masculine energy, whatever. And I'm like, yeah, because I have to. Because I have to be. That's like a fight or flight. Yes. If you feel like you're in your masculine energy, it's because you're in fight or flight. Also, I love being in full whatever masculine energy is. And I put that in quotations because it's just society telling you that being business minded is like masculine. But I'll be on like some call. I know so many men who are. I've watched business fail fail and I'm like what go back to college honey yeah obviously missed a class like I know more horrible businessmen than I do business women I know a ton of amazing business women no it's crazy I was looking at like businesses like and just like which ones are up and coming that I want to like follow I'm obsessed with like foods and stuff like i love seeing like a new food that gets invented yeah like my girl like the girl that has freestyle olives yes i love i found them years ago and i'm just like fuck yeah i love supporting that girl i feel like i would want to be a part of a business that a woman was running because i'm like she's not gonna let it die she is going to mother and nurture and care and be detail-oriented where the man i'm like i feel like he's i feel like he's cheating me like i feel like he's like he could get a fast one any he could leave in the middle of the night i'm like double check the numbers i don't trust him but you know it's so true be yourself and then the right guy puts you in that place like you can't help but be like feeling cute around him if a guy makes you feel like like big and serious around him that's not your man no that's not your man if you have to be in charge that is not your man and also speaking of business women we both have female lawyers oh we have the best and i think that's extremely important to also my lawyer this might be a little too much um i don't want to give away your identity she's also the like has multiple children and is the president of her pta she runs like everything she's just like we can't do it all we can't do it all we can no we actually can like you know what is funny because now like i'll go on like work trips like i'm in la for like a pretty long time and i would have never thought this even like a year ago but i literally got off my flight like got to my hotel and my thought was like yeah i could do i could have a baby i could bring a baby on like this work trip oh is that sweet wait that's so sweet i mean i'm not gonna because that would be crazy but like in but i was like oh like could i still do this and like have a baby and i was like yeah i fucking could because i've dated so many babies that i'm like i could fuck i could do this i also want to raise awareness to there's something about right now with what's going on like the whole hockey thing the patriarchy enforces telling women like we need to keep the family structure alive which is basically saying we want women to be submissive we we want it to be traditional we want it old school we don't want women to have jobs like we just want women to be like making babies all the time it's a way to suppress women it's because it's if you care about not to get too into it but if you care about the economy the economy is better when women are working also taylor swift literally saved like multiple u.s cities just for showing up and also guess what your man's about a business no problem you're staying at home you're staying at home okay learn how to clean a dish because you can't do an excel sheet that's for sure oh god um news alert yeah i read an article on tiktok that said you
