LadyGang is hitting the road!
In an exclusive interview with PEOPLE,Becca Tobin, Jac Vanek andKeltie KnightoftheLadyGangpodcastannounced thedatesfor their upcoming fall tour, The Lady Secrets Tour. Tickets go on sale to the public this Friday.
The podcasters will be touring in support of theirnew book,Lady Secrets, which will be available for purchase Sept. 20.
After recentlywelcoming son Fordin February afterfertility struggles,Gleealum Tobin, 36, tells PEOPLE the upcoming tour “is really our rockstar moment.”
“We’re really excited to go to all the cities that we haven’t been to before,” she adds.
For Knight, the tour is a “full circle moment” after she and Vanek once dated the same person back in their early 20s.
“This is like a Penny Lane moment for us, because all those years ago, we were on someone else’s tour bus, someone else’s tour, just the side girl. Now we have our own tour bus. It’s the Lady Gang tour bus,” she says.
“I’m taking my bunk, and we get to go on tour like rock stars, and we did it ourselves. It’s the ultimate full circle moment,” Knight adds. “Jac and I, we’re having our rockstar moment, and it’s so exciting. I’m really excited to get in my bunk and talk from my bunk all day long.”
Fashion entrepreneur Vanek — who has been engaged to longtime partner, The Maine guitar player Jared Monaco since October 2021 — says the tour is now a chance for her to turn the tables.
“It’s funny, because my fiancé is a musician, and I’m usually the one that’s going out and visiting him on tour on his tour bus,” says the CEO. “It’s like a role reversal kind of a thing, where I get to feel like a rock star for the first time ever. I am very excited about that.”
As for which cities they are looking forward to visiting the most, Tobin confessed that she feels a lot of “anxiety” about going back home to Atlanta.
“The anxiety that I have of not selling out that venue is, I may or may not purchase every single ticket and give them out for free, because I don’t want to be the loser that has no hometown fans,” Tobin jokes.

Knight, on the other hand, revealed, “I also feel anxiety because we’re playing Boston, and that’s where my high school boyfriend lives.”
“Will he come to the show? Will he wish that he had never dumped me? There’s a lot to be determined on this tour,” Knight joked.
“It became this kind of phenomenon where all of our ladies were talking about their secret side they were holding onto that brought them shame, and they were too scared to share with their best friend or their partner,” says Vanek.
Tobin adds: “There’s a lot of women, and what we found out is that there’s a lot of you that are cheating on your husbands. There’s a lot of you that are having accidental bathroom moments. There’s a lot of you that have killed other people’s animals without them knowing, and you didn’t take the blame for it.”

“This is just a free way to get it out. You were a nanny and you killed the hamster. Sorry,” she continued.
According to Knight, “There’s just a lot, and we really, really went there. I think there’s going to be a lot of jaws on the floor. There was a few secrets that we hope we won’t be sued about. We definitely had to consult our lawyers on this book.”
