A Podcast Rec for January 16 2025

Podcast of the day: Minnie Questions with Minnie Driver | Jane Lynch | Jan 15 2025 | 39 min
Why You Need To Listen:
Such a fun, lighthearted conversation between Minnie Driver and actress and comedian Jane Lynch, full of some laughs and brilliant insights. If you need a little pick-me-up today… this is for you.Favorite quote:
“The solution to your problem is never commensurate in size with the problem. It is always a little tiny flicker of the needle in another direction will have this huge affect. And I think we get stuck in the notion that when a problem feels overwhelming the idea that we’ve got to find a solution that’s as big as the problem and that’s just not true. It really is as simple as sometimes taking your shoes and socks off and standing outside or taking a shower or going to sleep, having a nap.”
-Minnie Driver
“I’ll hear about relationships where people just can’t get enough of each other. My parents, they loved each other so much. My father would go away for a weekend to do something, god, when he’d come home they’d be like - ‘ohhh I missed you so much!’”
-Jane Lynch
