Seth Meyers On: Handling Performance Anxiety, Managing the Inner Critic, Hacks for Better Conversation, and Staying Joyful in Dark Times

This is the 10% Happier podcast. I'm Dan Harris. Hey. Hey, everybody. How we doing? One of the quirks of the Trump era is that hosting a late night television show, which used to be a rather apolitical position, is now very much about drinking out of the fire hose of news and then commenting on it, hopefully, in a way that makes everybody laugh instead of cry and also gives us a dose of joy that can then produce some resiliency. That very much is the way my guest today, Seth Meyers, sees his job, and you're gonna hear him discuss all of that in this interview. You'll also hear him talk about his techniques for staying sane in the middle of, And much more and much more. I think all of you know who Seth is, but just in case you don't, Seth is the host of Late Night with Seth Meyers. Before that, he was a cast member on Saturday Night Live for thirteen seasons. In recent years, he's released two stand up specials, Lobby Baby on Netflix and Dad Man Walking on HBO Max. He also wrote a children's book called I'm Not Scared, You're Scared. And he co hosts two podcasts, Family Trips with the Myers Brothers and the Lonely Island and Seth Meyers podcast. Before we dive in, a quick plug for my new app, 10% with Dan Harris. You can sign up over at danharris.com. There's a free fourteen day trial. Talking to Seth today reminded me that I've always nursed this desire to be a late night host myself. That's almost certainly never gonna happen, but I do host my own little weekly meditation show every Tuesday at four Eastern over on the app. We do a live meditation and Q and A session. Our next live sit is coming up on Tuesday, January 20. We do these every Tuesday at four eastern. I'll be joined by our teacher of the month, Bart Van Melick. Sign up. Danharris.com.
