Minnie Questions with Minnie Driver

330

Minnie Driver questions everything... and her acclaim as an actor and musician is undoubtedly rooted in her enraptured observations of the world around her. Now, Minnie sits down with experts and trailblazers across disciplines and asks them the same seven mini questions, showing even small questions can uncover larger truths about happiness, failure, love, loss and belonging. In interviewing a range of characters, Minnie questions... how are we the same? How are we different? How do we become who we are? Minnie questions... because it is the questions we ask that help us understand the world around us, and ourselves.

    Always interesting
    I enjoy these lighthearted conversations that also go deep. And Minnie has a pleasant voice.

    Annoying
    By far the most intrusive and annoying commercial that I have to slog through on the podcasts I actually enjoy. I wouldn’t listen to this if I got paid
  • joourney woman 1957
    Utterly delightful!
    Such an interesting mix of guests and it’s amazing how Minnie holds her own with them. Graceful, funny, articulate, she, and this pod are utterly delightful!

    Light, deep and insightful
    I’m loving this podcast. The conversations are light, but deep and insightful. Minnie is a great interviewer, and her intellect, ease and accent are delightful. The guests are fascinating.

    Have always loved your movies.
    Enjoying your insights here. Would love if you would interview Paul and Sasha from the podcast Community News with Paul and Sasha and figure out who these elusive, mysterious cohosts really are. It's such a clever show and would love to hear you interview them about how they come up with the characters and the story lines in the fictional town they have created. Thanks

    Great actor, not so great interviewer
    A little boring, same long add too many times. Not worthy, really
  • Dum Sim
    Terrific on many levels!
    First of all, Minnie is an A-level actor. More importantly, she is a well-developed human being who, through her own introspection and willingness to be open to what life throws at us all, is the perfect Human whisperer of the need to connect…with humor. A+++ (shades of Christmas Story)

  • MeTessel
    Love listening to Minnie and her guests
    Thank you Minnie for a beautiful way to get to know people. Sometimes there are things I need to hear and sometimes it is just a great way to spend time with what feels like friends. And Minnie’s laugh is the best and always makes me either smile or laugh out loud.

    So many commercials so little substance
    Don’t waste your time with this one, it’s nothing but advertisements and self aggrandizing.
  • 5280norsk
    Sponsored by hate and other crap
    Full of commercials bc apparently MD can’t afford a microphone to do her podcast without loads of sponsors. She calls trash talking others “having an opinion”. So many other great podcast out there, minus the commercials/consumerism and negativity. Matt Demon knew better, unfortunately it took me awhile. And definitely don’t waste your time and money on her vacuous memoire.

    Fun
    Interesting guests. Fun to hear so many different answers to the same questions.
  • NikoHKK
    So insightful
    What an awesome idea this was to recreate the questionnaire and funnel it down to a few core ideas. Such warm, insightful, heartfelt and sometimes just awe inspiring conversations and people. Bravo.
  • SalukiMom
    So Much Fun
    Thank you Minnie for this lovely listen. I receive a takeaway from every episode. The Edith Eger Episode is on Repeat As Needed for me.

    Too many adds
    How come so many adds, worse tan any othe podcast Apart from that its really good!
  • Baklava22
    Too many ads
    Content is good but I’ve given up due to the number of ads.
  • SeriouslySnapeAlwaus
    Not enough…
    Content for the amount of ads—especially at the beginning. 😩
  • Boaty Mc Boatface
    Terrible
    Horrible commercials that I have to listen to with this insufferable person. Her actual podcast is worse. Just because you’re an actor and a musician doesn’t automatically mean that you have anything good to say. As evidenced here.
  • Peanut_Butter_Lover
    Could use more variety
    I love the idea of this podcast and it’s really well done. The only thing missing is more variety of disciplines. I would like to see more mathematicians, scientists, and technologists. There’s just too many people in the disciplines stereotyped as “creative.”
  • OOOMCat
    Highly Recommend
    One of the more thoughtful interviewers I’ve heard on a podcast. Questions asked or not obvious and redundant to other interviews that we may have heard from a celebrity or such.
  • tunesy87
    Must Listen
    First of all Minnie has been such an infuential person in my life. I love her music, movies and now her posdcast. She has some really interesting conversations with some really interesting people. I can't wait for more episodes.

    Minnie & Henry
    Out of the mouths of babes….your son is incredible with such insight and wisdom for a young man. Well mannered, well spoken and kind. Minnie, as a mother, hat’s off to you dahling! 👏🏼👏🏼
  • rdingo
    So many Ad breaks
    I’d love to listen, but the amount & length of Ad breaks is unbearable.
  • Bearinpdx
    You and Henry
    I have always enjoyed you as an actress. (Sweet Loraine😉) I love your show very thought provoking as well as full of sentiment. I’ll be brief here. You have a amazing son. You had to do a few things right. 😉 Matt Fellow Member of the too hard on yourself club.

    Excellent!
    Minnie Driver…I LOVE your podcast! Your preselected question format, the way you interact with your guests, the intimacy you create… Look forward to Season 2 BTW I watched your Modern Love episode, and loved it. Be well and Be happy…❤️
  • BKWcbc
    I like the conversations, but specifically...
    Ronan Farrow came off as smug and self-promotional. He didn’t answer the questions, but instead tried to show he is intellectually superior to Minnie. He didn’t succeed.
  • pilarventura30
    Henry !!!
    What an awesome young man ! Ms. Driver you get A+ on raising handsome Henry ! Love your podcast and all your guest have been fabulous.
  • SLC43
    LOVE LOVE LOVE this podcast. Everyone should ask these questions of their loved ones
    Absolutely LOVE this podcast and it couldn’t be more welcome than during the pandemic. All of the interviews have been so interesting, but my absolute favorite so far is the one with Henry Driver. Minnie is a gracious and fantastic interviewer and I’ve been inspired to ask these Minnie Questions to friends and family and I’ve learned so much about them - things I never would have learned. THANK YOU to Minnie Driver for doing this podcast.

    Henry Driver
    I have to say this episode was so amazing and I believe the Minnie should record a follow up with Henry again in five years and then five after that. He will undoubtedly change his answers and also have a record of him and her forever, just in case one life changes. I love this podcast!
  • lanchaboat
    Loved the interview with Henry!
    What a fantastic interview with Henry! Such a smart & articulate young man! Great job Mama Minnie!❤️🌈

    Henry Driver
    I loved, loved, loved listening to your son. He is wise behind his years. I love your relationship. Awesome job! 😎
  • pistachiokarma
    Wise Henry
    Henry was the best interview of all! It was delightful and thoughtful. Minnie is obviously a wonderful mom who is blessed with an intelligent and loving son. I prefer to hear what our youth have to say, above any adult “celebrity / artist “.
  • Divebree
    Oh Henry!
    Love this show, but especially love the interview with your son! I’m sure you are very proud, he is an amazing kid.
  • purple tammy
    Favorite interview
    Loved loved your interview with your son. He seems like a sweetheart. One of my favorite of your podcasts.
  • Dfales
    Beyond pretentious! Holy crap!!!
    I love Minnie, but my goodness the arrogant and out of touch “conversations” particularly with the Hollywood crowd are really really bad. Difficult to listen to - so I won’t.
  • Capecodclaude
    Bonnie Hunt = Perfect Guest!!!
    I only needed to hear the first episode with Viola Davis to know this was the most compelling podcast I've ever heard. Minnie's charm, tone, insight....she's a keeper. And Viola had me cheering and weeping; what a wonderful ride. What a delight. BRAVA! Now.... Add Bonnie Hunt to you awesome guest list!
  • XurbanloveX

  • Bebop1027
    Love it!
    Such a great podcast. Love Minnie. A must listen. The Viola Davis episode is amazing. Viola is a goddess.
  • immwia
    Getting tired.
    This often suffers from something common with celebrity podcasts which is too many “insider” discussions that aren’t relevant to the listener. I initially enjoyed the concept of this podcast but it has started to lose my attention. I find myself marking it read within 5 minutes when it feels repetitive or the sound quality is poor. Unfortunately if this keeps up it will be deleted altogether. Perhaps like most podcasts, if the subject or subject matter is no longer interesting then neither is the podcast.
  • lindy luvs music
    This is perfection!
    Minnie does an incredible job of interviewing! She has a knack for making each guest sound like a life long friend. Every guest has been so interesting. This podcast is so refreshing!
  • Becca H J
    Great podcast, even better host
    I love Minnie Driver. I could listen to her talk for hours about nothing, but this podcast definitely has substance. I love the premise and even though most of the questions are the same from guest to guest, every show is different and interesting.
