Benny Blanco is a record producer, songwriter, and musician. During podcast appearances, he discussed his own book, F*ck Failure, as well as an album by Ed Sheeran. On On Purpose with Jay Shetty, he stated that writing his book helped him recognize a childhood experience that he had previously understood as a failure. He also referred to a story in the text about his mother being afraid to pursue her dream of painting, and noted that working on the book motivated him to confront his fear of flying so he could speak honestly about failure. Furthermore, he reflected on how earlier failures and therapy gave him tools that he shared in the book's broader discussion of boundaries and letting people down. On The Mel Robbins Podcast, he brought up Ed Sheeran's album Divide while sharing a story about working in England, highlighting that it featured many big songs such as Shape of You, Perfect, and Castle on the Hill.
