Literally! With Rob Lowe

11,214

This is literally a podcast where people I love, admire, and know well will be in a safe space to really let their hair down (assuming they have any). I will cover the thoughtful to the extremely random. So join me and my guests from the world of movies, TV, sports, music, and culture for fun, wide-ranging, free-wheeling conversations.

    Great podcast!
    Rob can spill the Hollywood tea and still be respectful. He knows lots of people. A good listener and conversation is interesting. 2nd Review- Mark Duplass, great interview. I watched his movie Penelope on Hulu, very, very good. Different from most series, Unexpected ending.

    Mark Duplass
    This was another really great episode. A little of Rob’s obsession with the paranormal, a little bit of family stuff, and a bit about episodic television. I didn’t know who Mark Duplass was prior to this episode but he’s a super interesting guy, and Rob was Rob, a little kooky, a little weird, a little self obsessed, always listenable. I’ll definitely watch Penelope on Hulu.

    Great interview with the Amazing Keith Urban
    I really enjoyed the interview with Keith Urban. Loved the live audience and they had great questions. More than your stellar careers, I admire both you and Keith for your dedication to your marriages and families. Keep up the great work!

    Rob Lowe you’re everywhere these days and that’s a great thing! Love your podcast and Netflix series. Thanks for the great interviews and a fun look into your personal and professional world.

    As I assist and care for my 97 year old mother Emmajean, I find myself struggling. We make it work. I have a son in sober living thank goodness and as a widow and 62, life is challenging. To offset car rides with mom we picked to listen to you. From Toledo and we live in Pioneer on a lake. It was episode with Michael J. Fox. Fantastic and so needed. Mom is mad and sad that age is in her way. To listen regarding finding gratitude which can sustain optimism was amazing. Thank you so much.

    My 2 Favorite Podcasters Together
    Just finished listening to you and Ashley Flowers!!! I could listen to you two together all day!! Hearing you talk about Bigfoot reminded me of The Lowe Files! What a great episode this was. Kathy
  • unhappy trial user Cathy
    Used to like you
    Everyone says some stupid things every now and then but how you compared yourself to Karen Carpenter is just plain reprehensible and gross. It makes you look like a complete idiot and of course as everyone notices on YouTube is in poor taste. Stop talking about yourself for a minute and think about others around you. I used to be a big fan of yours but not anymore and unfollowed this podcast. Great, now more nostalgic actors ruin my memories. Get it together Rob Lowe. There is no excuse and you’re really not as good looking as you think.
  • The Nameless Twin
    Great starter!
    I heard a comedian who did an episode a while back mention this show and decided to check it out… and I was luck enough to have the newest episode be with Dan Carlin, whose history podcasts I love!

    I was listening to this today while hiking, and was laughing out loud. Other people couldn’t see my air pods and just thought I was a deranged woman cackling in the woods. They aren’t wrong, but in this case I gotta say these 2 hit it out of the park! Excellent episode!
  • Disappointed Mom- fix my game
    So GOOD!
    My husband and I agree that this podcast is so entertaining and FUN! And Rob Lowe is “easy on the ears” for our listening enjoyment. We just so look forward to the conversations found here.

    Matthew Lowe Episode
    Ok I am a big fan of the West Wing! So when Matthew mentioned he was in one of the episodes I had to go back and find it! I think you said it was called “Noel”, I watched it but no Matthew, I did see him in Season 1 Episode 10 called Excelsis Deo! He was standing in front of President Bartlett (Martin Sheen).

    Dr. Hyman
    I have been listening to random episodes of this podcast for over a month now. Any tidbits of information I retain usually is shared on social media or with people in my real life. Mostly it’s been pop culture. Today it was Dr. Hyman. Since I watched “Forks Over Knives” I have been rather aware of what I am putting into my body. High Fructose Corn Syrup has barely gotten inside me since. I indulge with a soda pop every once in a while. That being said, I was most attentive for this episode. Please do more every so often. I shared this particular episode with more people than any other episode. A handful of pecans a day keeps the doctor away. I also still eat apples, bananas, yada, yada. Love the show, An Ohioan, Tim Kendel

    Adriene Mishler
    I love this podcast and was so excited that Adriene was a guest. But ya know I am gonna need the brand name of that eye mask! 😃

    Surprised
    I found this accidentally and was very surprised how engaging and interesting these podcasts have been. I have been enjoying the new podcasts each week with the diversity of topics and people. I certainly have a new impression of Rob Lowe after listening to many of these and was again surprised at his candor and knowledge. It was not at all what I expected and have been pleasantly surprised! I had the “public persona” of him, but as you listen you find he is very intelligent and diverse. He also guides the interview, but lets the guest talk prompting with great questions and encouraging their “stories”. I really recommend and think you too will be surprised!

    Great Podcast
    I love his podcast. Sometimes I don’t know who his guests are and am so glad I listened as they usually turn out to be such interesting people. He seems so genuine and a true family man.

    All of Rob Lowe’s Literally Podcasts
    I must say, Rob Lowe’s podcast Literally is one of the best ones that I have listened to. I like his energy and he has a warm, funny, open and engaging way - as do the people that he has on the show. It’s really a pleasure and it’s also nice to see that he has not turned into an a-hole after all of these years. Keep it up Rob! Thank you.
  • Tampabrett
    Great Podcast
    Rob is a great Host, is there anything this man can’t do? Worth a listen.
  • swearintogod
    Fire hose of knowledge
    Best podcast you’ve ever done. So much information. Good information. I sent it to my kids, they probably won’t listen to it but they should. Get rid of TikTok and the Chinese government
  • simply_Donna
    The Earth’s 70% water…
    …and you’re parched! (I read that somewhere) The great thing about this podcast is that the topics and the personalities are always changing. Some are on a deeper level, some are more whimsical, more humorous, etc., the list goes on, which is exactly what I need. Rob has a talent and the right character to deliver it. I have listened to various podcasts but only subscribed to a handful, including this one. Thank you Rob, and thanks to the fantastic crew behind it too… literally!!
  • It’s Julie
    Lowe/Cryer = Genius conversation!
    I came of age with you you two, so this episode soooo resonated with me, as I’m a huge admirer of both of your unique talent and careers, and minds, and totally appreciated all of the stellar backstories! Especially love you, Rob!💖
  • Matzahboy
    Guests always relaxed with rob
    If you think you know Rob Lowe from his movies and tv shows get ready. He disarms any celebrity that he interviews into a chill hang. He always has a story about any interesting characters from Hollywood fish bowl. If your just getting started definitely listen some of SNL guests from his movies. Ps if your lucky he will sometimes do impressions of his old friend Bill Paxton
  • SariFlauna
    Literally A Joy to Listen To
    Loved the Marc Andreessen episode, learned more about TikTok and AI in one hour than the entirety of my life. Thanks Rob and Marc!!!
  • ShanPom
    Dr Hyman episode
    Love these educational and applicable to improving life episodes!

    F Bombs
    I am sad to say, even though I enjoy your podcast and guests, I have to stop listening because of your F Bombs, You use it as causal language and I find it disrespectful.
  • Tr314
    Yes !
    Love the episode with Dr. Hyman! Learned tons! Please more like this. It is so right about “there is no food in our food.” Other countries have much stricter mandates when it comes to food and what is in (or not in) the food. Thank you!
  • cb_0001
    One of the best podcasts!
    Love Rob and love the variety of guests! And yes, Rob, please do more episodes like the one with Dr Hyman! I’ve been following Dr Hyman for some time and listen to his podcast and you had some great questions that touched the surface of some great topics and it’s one of my all time favorite episodes, along with the one with Henry Wrinkler which is still in my top 5!
  • Jennim.
    Always a great listen
    I love the podcast. Rob is such a good interviewer, even though he goes off on tangents often, I really enjoy his thoughtful questions. I have learned more about each guest he has on and even people I have never heard of. If you haven’t read his books, it’s a good read. Love ya Rob!

  • A B-O
    Pretentious
    Rob and a guest tell stories of being Hollywood elites and experiences that are completely unreliable.
  • AngieDMarie
    Some of the best interviews
    I am a Smartless fanatic with Bateman, Arnett and Hayes. I stumbled upon Rob Lowe’s podcast and I have been completely enthralled with both his guest and his interview style. I absolutely love this podcast and I cannot tell enough people how great this podcast is and how addicting it has become for me. Great work Rob! Love all that you are doing to introduce people in a different way. You have a great way at allowing us to know people in a more personal way. Thanks for all you do’
  • Dug525
    Really enjoy Rob’s podcast
    I have listened to all of these podcasts and I really enjoy them. The one difference I find with this podcast is the different range of guests and topics discussed I am always impressed!
  • Toni from San Francisco
    Fun for All!!
    It’s like being a fly on the wall while two friends chat it up! Rob asks great questions and does the best impressions, and is so funny. Love his stories, and he’s so open about sharing his personal life. I have learned a lot about Rob Lowe, and I’ve been a fan forever. Good times and fun for all!
  • Maleni143637
    Love love love
    I am late in reviewing the episode with Rob’s wife Cheryl, but, she is absolutely wonderful, amazing, smart, intelligent, just all of the words! lol i would like another episode with her again. She’s so insightful. Everyone in my home is a Rob Lowe fan. My oldest child, 17, when she first saw Rob, when she was 5, said he was a beautiful man. My youngest son said he looks like an angel lol. Love the podcast!! And keep telling your stories Rob!! I for one love them!!
  • patrick from phila

  • eagleman2014
    Love the stories
    One of my favorite podcasts! I love hearing the cool & nostalgic stories throughout the film & tv industry. I have watched Rob Lowe ever since I was a child. A great actor, and an even better human being! I would love to sit down with Rob and talk about acting and hear any lessons and his thoughts about getting into the industry.
  • Manicmonday77
    I Lowe the 80’s
    Rob! (Because of course we are literally on a first name basis, now.) I love the show! Don’t you dare stop telling stories about yourself! I enjoy that maybe even more than the stories from guests, but you know how to get the good stuff from them. Thank you!
  • mzpennylane
    Nando Perrado
    Fantastic episode! Fascinating conversation. Miraculous tale. Remarkable human. Thanks Rob! Thank you for your content. Love the pod
  • Yeah I want the hints
    My husbands a little jealous
    Rob, I’ve honestly not seen most of your tv work but I been a fan because you have always gone your own path and I have always admired that just fick it attitude that I’ve never had. I have enjoyed this podcast so much because it is just such a great conversation and not packaged for PR. The best.
  • TREK1001
    Literally Worth My Time
    Love you! Love your podcast! As a long time Rob Lowe fan, I am so glad I get to hear you on a regular basis. It is wonderful to learn bits of Hollywood lore, Celebrity Gossip, Life Lessons, and about your intriguing guests. I could not pick a favorite though I did like how you gave Arnold 2 episodes. I want you to know your own personal stories are crucial, keep it up.
  • Hey You. Pikachu!
    Nando Parrado episode!!
    Thank you for your interview of Namdo Parrado!!! This morning I was scrolling through my podcast library to choose what I was going to listen to on my drive to work. All I saw was “Nando Par….” And I knew immediately who it was and what it was about. I haven’t hit play on a podcast episode so fast in years. Then I cried my way through the listen. I’ve been fascinated by this story for decades, have seen every movie and documentary and read several books. His book Miracle In the Andes is one of my all-time favorite books and I’ve read it multiple times an urged many people over the years to read it. This interview cemented what an extraordinary person he is. Not just for his physical accomplishments of what he did to survive and rescue his friends, but how he has maintained his attitude in aftermath and his life since. I will also be cheering on Society of the Snow for what I hope will be a well deserved Academy win. I’ve listened to many of your podcast legends. This one is my favorite by a long way. great job with the interview and thank you for continuing to bring his story to people
