The Questlove Show builds on the award-winning Questlove Supreme podcast, bringing listeners into intimate, one-on-one conversations with peers, influences, and friends. Hosted by Ahmir “Questlove” Thompson, each episode uncovers the unexpected — from morning rituals and hidden talents to the art and experiences that shaped a guest’s journey. Sometimes playful, sometimes profound, always curious, QLS offers rare insight into leaders in music, film, television, comedy, literature, mental health, and beyond. It’s a fresh, unpredictable spin from a trusted source — a place where randomness is encouraged, tangents are welcomed, and conversations are anything but ordinary.

Questlove welcomes bestselling author Brianna Wiest (The Mountain Is You, 101 Essays That Will Change The Way You Think) for a vulnerable, funny, and wide‑ranging conversation about self‑sabotage, creativity, and learning to “just show up.” Brianna explains how she writes from her center, why nature and long drives unlock her best ideas, and how she separates the heart’s “what” from the mind’s “how.” Questlove shares how her work helped him see himself (and his obstacles) differently. Along the way, Brianna opens up about her childhood, her taste in music, and even making wedding cakes. This episode is a warm, insightful exploration of growth, bravery, and redefining success in the second act of life.
