Billy Eichner On: White-Knuckling Through Life, Hollywood Bulls**t, and the Two Pieces of Advice That Changed Everything

Hey, welcome to the 10% Happier Podcast. I'm Dan Harris. Today we are talking to Billy Eichner, who you probably know from Billy on the Street, Parks and Rec, bros. He's out with a new audio memoir. It's called Billy on Billy.

Billy Eichner, right after this break. A few things before we hear from our sponsors, if you haven't already checked out my new-ish meditation app, 10% with Dan Harris, I would love for you to do so. Many people fall prey to the myth that taking care of yourself is somehow self-indulgent. One of the big aims of this app is to disprove that, to make the argument that actually taking care of yourself is a public service. As I sometimes say, there's a geopolitical case for you to get your shit together because it unlocks an upward spiral.

The more you work with your own mind, the more you train your mind, the better you will be uh in your relationships with anybody who crosses your path. And that in turn will make you even happier, and then your relationships will improve even further and up you go. The whole point of this app is to walk you through the unlocking of this upward spiral. If you sign up, you'll get ad-free versions of this podcast. You'll get a growing library of meditations from many of the world's greatest teachers, a growing library of courses from many of those same teachers.

We already have this episode, so unlocking it is cheap and permanent: the full transcript (57 minutes, 10,535 words), segment and word-level timestamps, and .txt, .srt, .vtt and word-level JSON downloads, as many times as you like, forever.

No account needed, we create one from your checkout email. With credits it is 1 credit; packs start at 10 episodes for $5, and monthly plans are cheaper still.
