Podcast One presents The Lady Gang, The Hollywood Girl Posse with Lady Gang Quickie. Here's Kelty Knight, Becca Tobin, and Jack Vanek.
Starting point is 00:01:10 Let's make this quick. Our guest today, Becca, is probably not okay. Is she still breathing? Do we need to resuscitate her? Barely. One of our favorite Bravo-lebrities from all time, from her favorite show summer house is here she became a personal of becca's and us fan favorite this season with her wicked sense of humor short shorts and wild fling with the house new kid luke
Starting point is 00:01:35 the model hockey player jewelry designer what a combo she hails from the state of new york city and played competitive tennis professionally and has the has the steph graf bone to prove it we're going to need to see that she is a comedian and fellow popular podcast host burning in hell and we are so excited to have her on today after months and months of Becca stalking. You've connected your friends, you've DM'd. Welcome to the podcast, Hannah Burner. I'm so happy to be here. Thank you. Gang, gang. Thank you. Wait, so did this all happen because of the cameo situation, Becca? No. So this all happened because I've been a longtime fan of Summer House, and this season I decided to ask my husband to join in, and he has never, ever in the history
Starting point is 00:02:21 of our relationship in his life, gotten on board with a Bravo show or reality for that much. But I was like, I'm going to make him try because summer house means so much to me to just try. So he started and we started doing Instagram like commentary because he got in, he got into it. He was so invested. And then I tagged Hannah in some of my stories because I felt really passionately about the drama going on this summer. I was team Hannah all day, every day. And then she wrote back to some of my stories and then all the fans from lady gang that are also fans of Hannah's and like her life and her podcast, they kept being like, you need to have each other on your podcast, blah, blah, blah. Then Jamie Sigler, who's a good friend of mine, she, she and her husband are
Starting point is 00:03:08 obsessed with the show as well. And we talk about it constantly. We text every Wednesday. It's insane so she and her husband on our big group text sent me cameos of hannah lindsey carl and kyle and i just it was yesterday i couldn't what's that worth by the way hundreds thousands maybe i don't know priceless kelty fifty dollars and it's a hefty 50 for a solid minute wait yeah did you realize that you were sending it to this becca when you did it well i was going through like doing i do a couple cameos a day during season oh a couple a day during season because people are like i don't know people are losing their damn minds they need right if i can make anyone feel a little saner by watching like our um psychotic like drunk
Starting point is 00:04:05 antics and me just peeing hot tubs than i did my work for a year so i saw becca but i didn't know from her name but then it said like congratulate her on the book coming out and i was like oh my god it's that becca the one who has just back on instagram like she's like share on instagram and i i got like kind of nervous in my cameo because i was like i want it to be great but your cameo was the best one you also brought up the fact that luke grew out a beard which just so lame because the only thing hot about him is his jawline i get so upset when guys grow beards this is my theory if you don't have a jawline grow a beard and become a hot beard guy yes you have a jawline work it own it show that he has this weird obsession with wanting to be
Starting point is 00:04:54 ugly because he's like it's been too hot he's too hot so he loves i give him ugly he hates when i tell him to take his shirt off because he feels objectified oh my god shut up like to live the life you've been given and don't try to act like it's you're tortured by your good because you're so hot yeah it's obnoxious jesus he's like you don't understand what it's like oh for everyone to smile at everything you say and get everything you want I know it must be so tough trying to grow so I feel really bad for him like the poor guy how does he get through the day I had a call we're trying to figure out if we have i'm already like breaking rules but we're trying to figure out if we can do next season and i just said look if luke grows dreads i'm not in you need to figure
Starting point is 00:05:39 it out talk to him and i hung up it wasn't i'm i'm so scared about not having season five is it five yes so we i think like also when page and i got on the show originally it wasn't necessarily a popular show like our friends weren't like excited for us there was a lot of worry there was a lot of like are you sure oh my god luke is calling me right now can you yes answer it okay yes let him know he's being recorded hi luke you're being recorded i am yeah i'm on a podcast called the lady gang they're really badasses and they're big fans do you want to say anything uh yeah how you doing lady gang what's up oh my god i'm literally been on for 20 minutes just complaining about your beard and how i think it's ugly i know i i just had barbecue and i probably have a rib in
Starting point is 00:06:35 it flavor saver are you guys having are you guys having sex and i'll let you do your thing lady gang i hope you're safe and healthy give hannah some shit ask her tough questions don't be easy on her um and hannah give me a shot when you're done wait luke tell them are we having cyber sex uh hannah tries and then i have to tell her to relax a little bit because she's trying to do that with like parents around she can't do that okay gotta go so you guys are quarantining separately yeah he's in minnesota and i'm living with my parents again in long island wait okay i we have to talk about luke okay yeah first of all for people who didn't who didn't watch the show shame on you but here's a little like and we've all been through this
Starting point is 00:07:28 experience so here's what it is hannah and luke had this really fun flirtation in the beginning of summer and she was really enjoying it and he was like on the prowl for you he wanted you but you were sort of talking to another guy but it was a cute flirtation well then you stopped talking to the other guy and you were like full throttle let's do this bro and then he was like the breaks being like i don't want to mess up our friendship and i love i think you're so hot yeah yeah so then her girlfriends so her girlfriends page and amanda went ham and they were like on you Like it was it was so intense and they were so mad at you Even though you kept flirting with with luke and I just felt like let her live. She knows what's going on
Starting point is 00:08:16 She's fully aware that he's dating other people and she still wants to get finger banged this summer and that's okay Luke was not like I don't want to mess up the friendship. We were never like ever just friends. It was never It's always been flirty. So it's more like he didn't want to ruin what we could be because he wasn't ready to date where my argument was i'm gonna date you and you're not gonna hurt me like i'm a grown-up i want to hook up so it was this weird thing where like roles were reversed almost and people were having trouble comprehending that like this guy who's so much hotter than me i just wanted to use for his body first of all that's a lie yeah you're so hot you're so hot I think you should run an entire seminar on like body confidence and just you, first of all,
Starting point is 00:09:07 you don't have any cellulite on your body, which I actually am very confused about. Is that from tennis? It's probably tennis, but it's mostly genetics. I was a very muscular baby. I had like huge calves. I'm a very muscular person. And I think I went on the show, I gained 10 pounds every season from beginning to end from all the drinking and late night eating. But I just decided like you just have to own it and it really is all about confidence and Luke actually loves girls with big butts so I just got lucky wow I mean you had the summer that I just dream of every girl except my friends like really were not happy with me and I was like you guys they're like how are you not hurt that he fucked another girl and I'm like you're gonna find out in secrets
Starting point is 00:09:53 revealed actually i made out with armand in the middle of like all of it right i wasn't trying to be um just talking to him either and i think what people don't understand as an i'm 28 if i was 23 and met this guy i would have convinced myself that all the red flags were not there that he is because he's so beautiful he will be a beautiful human on the inside and out and love me the way need to be loved I've been through relationships with wealthy smart funny like famous guys who ruin your life ruin so I'm like this guy is great but he hasn't showed me that he's like boyfriend material and I think so many girls don't say that out loud like you're not boyfriend material but girls are always not girlfriend material well you're not boyfriend material
Starting point is 00:10:44 right now you're not over your ex you're a mess you drink a lot and I mean I do too but anyway that was my mindset I really appreciate that the lady gang what a shocking revelation that you'd actually have to have somebody prove their worth to you it's just like what the that's like common sense that you understand but everybody's shocked by it yeah and also the first six weeks of meeting any guy it's kind of messy and up and down and yeah you're both one thing I wish I knew as a younger girl was that you don't actually like him you don't actually yes so that's why in the beginning they're like we're afraid you're gonna get hurt and I'm like you guys every weekend I'm learning more about him I'm spending more time with him I got this
Starting point is 00:11:27 and if I do get hurt like just be there for me and I don't need you to protect me well I had a theory the whole season that I think Amanda was sort of jealous that he wasn't like he wasn't he wasn't into her I think that like after you've been in a relationship for many years you kind of look forward to getting hit on even if it's gonna go nowhere like as a married person like if somebody looks at me twice I'm like holy shit it's on but I think that Amanda was probably like there's this hot guy he's new in the house he's fresh meat maybe he'll start putting out some vibes and I can feel alive again and he didn't he wanted you and you alone from the beginning yeah and i think she was a little healthy yeah i'm very attracted to you oh my god
Starting point is 00:12:15 yes the whole energy i have a crush on all of you um thank you but who but who would you take home who do you want to be in a kill like who do you want to be the luke in your life and who do you want to be your forever lover you guys do kind of remind me a little bit of me page and amanda in that you're you're all different yes but you all have the same sense of humor one thing that Amanda like jokingly said to me once was like you know if I was single like I would be having sex with him she and like that was never shown but she said it very jokey and I was like I get it like there's a little ego involved and then fast forward seven weeks and how she's acting that's why I was like okay yeah yeah and I don't think she loved him I don't think she even
Starting point is 00:13:05 had a crush on him but Luke what people don't understand is I think Luke has had sex with every beautiful girl in the world and he's at a point like actually he's the kind of guy that he'd like be a big modeling campaign and be like oh yeah I worked with that girl we dated for two weeks like he's that guy and I think he's really at the point where he I'm not trying to say that I'm ugly but I'm trying to say that he really just cared about finding a girl that he really connects with and he's at the point where looks he doesn't care as much about and i was so beautiful of him and we really did have like a really fun chemistry and i think that's why he wasn't phased by other things but he did like to have random sex with other girls that he wouldn't have drama with the house
Starting point is 00:13:50 right and this brings me to my next very important question that the world wants to know why on earth it was like summer house was also like church camp where everyone was hooking up but there was no p in the v there was so much sex sexual activity but like no one penetrated show it no they said like they talked about it like carl and lindsey never had actual sex which i find that how is that even possible to not i don't know when you're getting wasted and like living with somebody to not have sex with them like what is it we're f***ing prudes no i think it's it's also the pressure of the house is so obsessed with like did you have sex right once you cross that it's like a thing and i think actually it was smart that carl and lindsey
Starting point is 00:14:38 didn't have sex i think it kept them a little more innocent when and she was able to move on faster um actually to this point i haven't had sex with luke yet i know what at this point is it still him not wanting to do it or what is this well there's a pandemic I'm so happy we're doing this podcast now because I couldn't really talk earlier but now that people kind of know saw the reunion we got in a fight right before the reunion but we're fine we were fighting about like stupid show related stuff and but I hung out with him like September October I was like cameras aren't around I'm gonna get it yeah still he's so fucking stubborn and he his thing was like I'm not over my ex-girlfriend I don't want to get
Starting point is 00:15:20 involved with you that way but we talk all the time and it's like very flirty I have friends and I have Luke and then eventually I kind of got bored with it and started to see someone new that lasted for like three weeks and he didn't have a job and live with his parents so like wasn't a good thank you they're the best in bed they are always I needed it I get it you know how blue-balled I was but that he actually ended it with me which I had to reflect on some of my life but it was great for my stand-up and then Luke and I started talking again and yeah I do think I did have sex with Armand in the beginning in the house but this is the rules you have to have sex you have to have sex in the bathroom
Starting point is 00:16:07 and turn the shower on or the closet but the closet they can still hear you there's something about america hearing you moan which um you know happened to me so i don't even i was fine with it i was like you know what sexual empowerment i'm proud of you have orgasms well and that was because he went down on you for two hours again i was hammered and it might have been a lot less than that but it was a long time but i like to i was like he went down on me for seven hours um but i have a question so when you go on the bachelor like everyone that goes into the bachelor house they make you take the herpes medication valtrex valtrex do they make you all be on valtrex or something like that for summer house the thing with summer house is like because we're not a
Starting point is 00:16:54 dating show they just let us live our lives yeah and we are messy exactly that's like a new storyline if one of us got herpes they'd be like great let's talk about call her out it is weird that like yeah grown people are really you guys are still very invested in like who's having sex with whom and so yeah people but it's what's also hard is like dating on a reality tv show dating in general has gotten a lot harder for me because what happened is I was like seeing this guy Armand who was this nice normal cool guy two months before the show so after two months we didn't really know what we were but we were hanging out all the time and then I'm like, so do you want to be a part of my life on this show? And he, we're not that close
Starting point is 00:17:38 yet. And he kind of was just like, I said, or let's not do this. So now that I might be filming in a month or two, we'll see what happens with COVID. If I'm talking to anyone, I have to be like, are you down to be on television? So in New York is all these like finance and lawyers and stuck up dudes. Like people with wives. Yes, exactly. I'm like, tell your other family that you have to go on tv so yeah dating is going to be a good opportunity also i do think people are afraid to have sex for that like to still get sex shamed in this day and age and my thing is i did my dad was like why do you have to say like you want to get like why do you say it like that and i said because it's empowering dad yeah i don't them i mean i them they don't me when i first
Starting point is 00:18:24 heard a girl say I fucked him, it was the most empowering thing I've ever heard. I love that. Amen. Do you want to hear the most embarrassing, shameful story of my whole life? Yeah. Whole life. And my dad listens to this podcast. He's going to hear it. This is the thing, the most unspoken thing that none of us, neither of us have ever discussed with each other. I was out at a bar and I was like 20, 21 years old. And I went to the bathroom and I didn't know that when I was telling my girlfriend in the bathroom that I was going to fuck my ex-boyfriend, that I was actually had butt dialed my dad. My dad heard me in a bathroom at a bar drunkenly state, I'm going to fuck him. Okay. And I, I can't remember how he just was like,
Starting point is 00:19:09 it was the most shamed I've, I've never felt. He never, he didn't make me feel shame, but I was like, I've never felt worse in my life, but you know, what's great is like now this day and age, that 21 year old, if she says that on the phone accidentally, she's going to be like, yeah, dad, I'm going to fuck him. Imagine your dad goes, look, I'm proud of you for saying you're going to fuck him, but why your ex? Can we get something a little better? Yes. They're bigger fish to fry in that statement. Yeah. And if I were a boy, I would have no bad feelings involved if my mom heard me say I was going to fuck some chick. Exactly. I'm very proud of you. And I think that you're super empowering. And even though you like downplay what you're doing on the show,
Starting point is 00:19:46 I think that also something that you did on the show that was really respectable was when you found out that Luke was talking to another girl, your first instinct was, I don't do that. Like, I don't, I don't with some other girl's guy. Granted you did come around next episode and say that you want competition, but like, okay. So to make, to explain that, cause yeah, that was my most empowering moment of the show. It was like, yes, because he made it sound like they were exclusive and they were dating and I was like I don't want to be part of that love triangle yeah that whole week we ended up hanging out it turns out he kind of was just saying that to like have the upper hand on me because he always felt like I was talking to someone else yeah it turns
Starting point is 00:20:29 out they were not exclusive he was just like seeing her and then that interview by is so annoying because that was like way later on they just in general were like did you ever feel competition with Yelena and it was like after the fact and I was like right I mean yeah there's some competition I wanted but it wasn't supposed to be right after I say I don't want to mess with another guy's girl this was like looking at the big picture they took away like the progress you made for women like they took it back another 10 years after that like it was such a bummer I was so mad when that interview bite came out because I was like I wasn't even talking about that time period like if you in general said did you feel competitive with Yelena I'd be like yeah
Starting point is 00:21:09 of course a little bit but it was after knowing that we both were just kind of talking to him you weren't dating him you weren't exclusive because i do not mess with that um yeah it made me and also elena at the end of the day i'm like girl i don't want either of us to be part of this mess and you always have to understand that you could be her in a second right oh yeah no one is better than the other we're just trying to find happiness and love with these men what do you think your true love is on summer house oh i mean there's many vanderpump rulers that have married each other now or have found their love on the television they were already couples though yeah i think it's hard though with the tv show that i see the high of like the cameras and the
Starting point is 00:21:56 lights on you in america rooting one that you can convince yourself that you're in love when you're not and that was a really painful thing to say out loud but it's true or like you're trying to prove something to people and I think that love is such a simple like you just like having a conversation with someone for the rest of your life and it's so simple and I do feel bad that Kyle and Amanda like have so many things they have to cope with that isn't just like the bear like do we just like each other right they don't my actually my roast to them the roast was hilarious and so much of it got cut but I remember my roast to them was like I'm so happy that you guys like love each other and you're gonna marry each other but like you guys double check if you
Starting point is 00:22:40 like each other listen we always talk about this like love is one thing and that like i love you liking the person like enough to be like cool we're in quarantine who's gonna clean the toilet like yeah that is like let me wipe some of your pubes off this toilet seat that's a different thing that's not also there's there's a very specific kind of guy that's nearing 40 and still still um exclaims at a pool party best summer ever you know like like it really says so much like if i was at a pool party and my husband in his mid-30s was to like raise his glass with rock fingers and say i would have to second guess every decision i'd ever made since 2014 oh my god i also recently i
Starting point is 00:23:35 get all my facts from twitter um so this is literally but i was thinking about that whole like yeah you have this chemistry with people and like when the pheromones and all the chemicals die like where's the actual love um and i do think you get a lot of like high and serotonin with cameras but then i was thinking about just sex in general of of the meaning of sex and some girl was like i want women to learn that like you don't have to wait till sex um wait until you're married to have sex you don't have to wait until you're in love to have sex yeah but wait for a guy to respect you to have sex sometimes and that's where i think the luke thing really showed like i'm actually not a girl who likes to have random sex i don't enjoy it i've like had my own bad
Starting point is 00:24:18 sexual experiences I like to feel safe I like to feel trust and with Luke I actually was feeling that safety and trust and respect that's why I was like legs wide open baby let's go but I didn't want people to also think that I'm just like trying to fuck any hot guy in the house I like
Starting point is 00:24:34 to fuck when I feel respect and they don't have to be just fucking me it's just we have this understanding that inevitably when I really want to date a guy obviously I want to just be me but with Luke in a house yeah I just that tweet like really touched me. Um, yeah. So that piece of literature really spoke to your soul. Beautiful.
Starting point is 00:24:55 I mean, I will say as a viewer, I never thought for a second that like he was screwing you around, you know, I really didn't feel like you were like this girl with the wool pulled over your eyes, the way your friends were treating you. And that's why I was enraged with the way they were treating you. Yeah. I didn't like when I was like being called weak and stuff because, um, that's, I also was equally manipulating his ass like i was being manipulative i literally broke up with him and said we should just be friends knowing that that would make him like me more i'm a controlling manipulative boy like come at me it's true um i i do have a question though for next season i know it's coming and it better be better be filming or i just quit life in general can luke
Starting point is 00:25:39 leave his guitar at home oh my god well luke and i got in a fight before reunion because of a couple things but one of the things is i have this live nightly show at 10 p.m with page called giggly squad and i make fun of his guitar playing and singing all the time and people were going to his dms being like hannah shitting on your singing and he's like bro stop making fun of me and i'm like if you can't see he just posted yesterday like a whole he's trying to prove that he's good at singing. I had him, my mom's a jazz singer on the side. I had him get a lesson from her this winter. Cause he started to worry me. He was talking about doing like live shows. And I was like, I said, I support you, but let's get some technique. Like you need to be like 10% good and
Starting point is 00:26:25 people will buy tickets, but like, let's get there. I was so supportive of him, but I, I had to have dated people that are only 10% good. So, I mean, I understand where you're at. Like we just need 10 you don't even have to be great just like 10 good it's true i'm looking i had to sit on his lap for him to stop playing the guitar so i could kiss him and they didn't even show there's so many nights where like i was trying to fall asleep and he would just be like singing to me and i was like how do we stop and i joke with the producers that i'm gonna like throw his guitar in the pool and they were like i don't know if that's necessary for your story you know and i'm like i can't do it anymore and we talk about my story how much do you loathe reality television producers
Starting point is 00:27:09 it's so funny because I like love them I think they're like really well I guess you're like strong enough to not like give in but like they're the most they're like politicians right they're like the most manipulative people that exist on the planet they are extremely emotionally intelligent and I think what I what helped me in my reality show strategy I'd call it is that I went in being like look you don't want to just people to say oh what do you think about Hannah and they go who oh yeah she's yeah you want people to either love you or hate you and with that you have to go in knowing that you're going to make mistakes and it's about how you try to solve those mistakes so if you try to go in being perfect it's they're gonna make you look stupid but if
Starting point is 00:27:59 you go in like let's make some mistakes and be real and see how I overcome them and know that I'm not perfect that's I think how I play the game of the show yeah well let me just tell you strategy I know you can tell because that's the thing is like there was nowhere in the season for every other person in that house, I had moments where I was like, they're not actually being themselves. Like, I think that Paige was a little scared this season that she wasn't going to get asked back because she has a boyfriend and she doesn't have any drama like of her own as far as dating and her boyfriend's not there on the show. So it's like, you could kind of see that she was like really trying to take on a persona that she's really not necessarily that person.
Starting point is 00:28:42 And that's when you get really turned off. Yeah. Like she didn't actually care that much that I was going to Luke, but she got really involved in like, while talking to Amanda and got like passionate, I guess she was convinced that I needed to be saved, but like, yeah, she felt more pressure, I think, to bring it and it didn't always work out. No. Well, when I'm on next season, I'm going to definitely bring it too. Okay. I'm so, if you divorce your husband, girl, I'll get a call in right now, or you can just come together as a guest at a party. Can we do that? you're not down for the divorce well as of now things are okay we've made it through i mean we've made it through like however many months of quarantine i feel like we could make it
