We're re-releasing Minnie's episode with Alan Cumming, host of The Traitors and recently announced cast member of Avengers: Doomsday. And don't worry, Minnie Questions will return with new episodes soon!

Minnie questions Alan Cumming, actor, singer, and director. Alan and Minnie discuss the many times they’ve shared the screen together, how Alan’s dog wound up in the Scottish National Portrait Gallery (and replaced the Queen), and how his life was shaped by his relationship with his father.

Curiosity might have killed the cat, but it’s the very thing that animates Minnie Questions with Minnie Driver. Here, the acclaimed actor and musician channels a lifetime of keen observation into a simple, compelling format. In each conversation, Minnie sits down with a fascinating guest-experts, artists, and trailblazers from the worlds of film, television, arts, and culture-and poses the same seven deceptively simple questions. The magic of this iHeartPodcasts production isn't in grand interrogations, but in how these consistent, mini inquiries act as a key, unlocking surprisingly profound territory. Listeners are brought into intimate dialogues that spiral out from the specific to the universal, touching on the raw materials of a life: love, loss, failure, belonging, and the pursuit of happiness. By applying her same thoughtful lens to a diverse range of voices, Minnie creates a unique space where small curiosities reveal larger human truths. Tune in for a podcast that feels less like an interview and more like eavesdropping on a wonderful, meandering conversation between two curious minds, always circling back to that central wonder: how are we all navigating this strange, beautiful world?
