Eliot Glazer: On His Hilarious New Book, Perfect Dogs, and Real Talk About the Crushing Realities of Hollywood Today
This week's episode got deep, vulnerable AND featured a perfect dog — so Becky has never been happier as she welcomes screenwriter, author and all-around wonderful human, Eliot Glazer (Broad City, New Girl) to the pod, whose new book of hilarious and poignant essays, The Terrible, Horrible, No Good, Very Bad Gay, will be released by Simon & Schuster on August 11th — pre-order ASAP if you have great taste. First, Eliot takes Becky back to his upbringing on Long Island, the intense fear of his queer identity being discovered that plagued him on a daily basis, and what ultimately prompted him to write his laugh-out-loud forthcoming book of essays — a book that would have meant so much to him when he was younger and that he hopes (and Becky is certain!) will be a balm to so many people's souls. Then Eliot and Becky get very candid about the realities of having a career in Hollywood these days, the internal and external voices that get in the way (and how hard those voices are to quiet down), and how the nature of being an artist comes with an inability to suppress your creativity — no surprise, Becky quotes Brené Brown for the millionth time as she and Eliot explore what "unused creativity is not benign" really means.
