At 46:02 · chapter starts 43:26
Javier Bardem and Kate Hudson are making out all over New York City for a movie, and Hannah can't stop thinking about Penélope Cruz. [1] — Paige DeSorbo "Javier Bardem is filming kiss scenes with Kate Hudson all over NYC, and Hannah can't stop thinking about it. Paige drops the surprising tak…" 43:26 She launches a full role-play in which Hannah plays Bardem trying to explain the situation and Paige plays the increasingly unmoved partner. The conversation expands into which professions statistically lend themselves to infidelity — professional athletes, A-list actors — and whether on-screen romance ever becomes truly mundane. Paige's most surprising insight: if your partner comes home complaining about their love interest, that's the red flag. You should feel completely neutral about a co-star. Feeling nothing means the work is just work. Hannah backs her up, recalling a tennis shoot where she had to smile at a male model for five minutes and briefly wondered if he was her husband.
Javier Bardem is filming kiss scenes with Kate Hudson all over NYC, and Hannah can't stop thinking about it. Paige drops the surprising take: if your actor partner comes home complaining about their love interest, that's actually worse than silence — you should feel nothing about a co-star.
The girls role-play as Javier Bardem defending his make-out scenes with Kate Hudson to Penélope Cruz. The counterintuitive conclusion: if your actor partner never mentions their co-star, that's healthy. If they come home complaining about her constantly, you have a problem.
