Getting Real About Reality TV and Reconnecting to Comedy with Hannah Berner

Episode 121: If you love reality TV and Bravo is your go-to, you will likely know this guest and recall all the drama from her last season of Summer House. The one and only, absolutely hilarious, Hannah Berner joins Natalie in person this week from Gotham Studios in NYC! The two form an instant friendship and share a fascinating conversation about breaking stereotypes, building confidence, and rediscovering your identity. Reality TV junkies are in for a captivating episode as Hannah takes listeners behind the scenes of Summer House and discloses what it is truly like to have cameras following you around 24/7. Being an entertainer and influencer always comes with a price, and Hannah and Natalie open up about the impact of social media and hateful messages on their mental health. Today’s episode dives into what it’s like to date in the public eye (and why it’s probably best to avoid), the challenges of being a woman in comedy, and how the “villain” isn’t always who you think it is. Be prepared to laugh out loud, re-think your time online, and reconnect with your childhood self.
