International Life: Time Zones, Treadmill Kilometers, and Hotel Quirks
At 7:13 · chapter starts 6:40
A brief but very funny detour into the logistical chaos of podcasting across time zones. Hannah is in Italy, Paige is in Toronto, and neither of them can reliably coordinate meeting times when the hour involves double digits. Paige confesses she nearly had a meltdown at the airport thinking she'd missed her flight, only to realize 2010 was 8:10 PM. The running gag escalates when Paige reveals she thought she was sprinting at 9 mph for 7 minutes straight — turns out the treadmill was set to km/h, shattering her brief Kendall Jenner-level athletic self-image. Hannah caps it by saying she stepped on a scale reading kilograms and decided not to convert the number because she liked it.
