About this episode

Let's revisit one of our most popular and beloved episodes of MBB to keep you inspired as we head into the New Year!

 

Cheyenne Jackson (CALL ME KAT, 30 ROCK, AMERICAN HORROR STORY) opens up about his incredible journey from a closeted, musical-loving kid in a tiny town in Idaho to becoming a Broadway star and starring in hit shows (like Mayim’s love interest on CALL ME KAT!).

 

Cheyenne reflects on how his path to sobriety and some profound revelations helped him navigate the challenges of depression, anxiety, and addiction.

 

This episode has it all—a story of resilience, self-discovery, and healing perfect for a reflective moment as we wrap up the year. Happy holidays from all of us at MBB!
