Then Hannah introduces the cake pop drama: a creator accused another of stealing her Fruity Pebbles recipe. The accused responds that the base is just Betty Crocker mix — there is no recipe.

The conversation extends to a woman attempting to trademark the phrase 'Hot Girl Walk,' which leads to a broader rant about internet culture turning everyone into a self-appointed legal expert. The hosts share their own experience: someone bought gigglysquad.com and demanded thousands of dollars for it. Their response: use a hyphen and move on.
The Cake Pop Cancel Incident
A cake pop creator accused another of stealing her Fruity Pebbles recipe — even though neither posts recipes and the base is just Betty Crocker. The internet turned on the accuser, cancelling her business. Paige's verdict: this is exactly why the patriarchy is winning.
Trademark Wars: Hot Girl Walk, GigglySquad.com, and Paris Hilton
Someone tried to trademark 'Hot Girl Walk,' someone else held gigglysquad.com hostage for thousands of dollars, and Paris Hilton actually did trademark 'That's Hot.' Paige and Hannah break down why the internet makes everyone think they're a lawyer.
Gigglysquad.com domain held hostage
Someone bought gigglysquad.com and demanded thousands of dollars from Paige and Hannah, who refused and added a hyphen to the URL instead.
