Off the Cupp with S.E. Cupp

Josh Gad is grateful for his anxiety

S.E. Cupp could think of no better person to have as her first guest on her podcast than her pal, the actor, Josh Gad. And Josh Gad delivers! The “Frozen” and “Book of Mormon” star talks openly about his childhood, how he dealt with rejection, what his mom told him when he almost left acting, and about his first big break. He also shares some of his darker moments and his own mental health journey. The whole conversation ends with a very fun lightning round involving a surprising quiz.  Josh Gad’s new children’s book, “<a href="https://www.penguinrandomhouse.com/books/697010/pictureface-lizzy-by-josh-gad-illustrated-by-marta-kissi/">PictureFace Lizzy</a>” is out now. His memoir, “<a href="https://www.simonandschuster.com/books/In-Gad-We-Trust/Josh-Gad/9781668050521">In Gad We Trust: A Tell-Some</a>,” will be out in January 2025.See <a href="https://omnystudio.com/listener">omnystudio.com/listener</a> for privacy information.

S.E. Cupp needs a break -- from the news, from politics, from the triggering headlines and heated discussions … from the mental load of it all. Off the Cupp is just that. It’s a place to get loose and personal, to talk about what’s going on in our lives - beyond (and, yes, maybe because of) the news. Through a lens of mental health, S.E. invites her famous guests — celebrities, athletes, authors, journalists, politicians, reality stars — to share their life stories, their trials and tribulations and to talk about what it’s like living in this world, even when this world can feel like a lot.
