The Briefing with Jen Psaki · Jen Psaki in conversation with actor and author Billy Eichner · 13 Jul 2026 podcast

It is my childhood, right?

And how success came out of love and not trauma.

And I'm seeing all of these comments from strangers, fans of mine, but people I don't know, who obviously did not know my parents.

And it's just, you can look under the posts on Instagram.

It's just flooded with comments and DMs and personal messages about...

People saying, oh my God, I'm in love with your parents and messages from parents saying like, this is a reminder to me to let my kid be my kid, you know?

And it's very, very moving that 30, 40 years later, after my parents made the choices they made to see their love kind of reverberating and having this effect on parents now, that's like, that's very humbling and that's very meaningful.

Yes.

Oh, I was always me.

I loved entertainment.

I mean, I loved Madonna and I loved, but she wasn't the only one.

I mean, you know, I'm a Gen X kid.

I loved MTV, played it on a loop, loved Broadway.

I loved comedy, but I was more of a theater kid than a comedy guy.

Comedy kind of came along later.

But yeah, I just loved entertainment.

You know, it was magical to me.

You know, going to see Starlight Express.

I tell this story in the book about how, you know, if you remember Starlight Express, it wasn't a very well-reviewed show.

You know, it was like Angeloid Webber's follow-up to The Phantom of the Opera, but it wasn't as big of a hit.
