Unexpected Conversations: Discover the Fun of Five Random Questions

5 Random Questions

06/10/24 • 1 min

Hey there, I'm Danny Brown, and welcome to 5 Random Questions! If you love spontaneous conversations, unexpected laughs, and a bit of heartfelt wisdom, then this is the show for you.

Each week I sit down with my special guest and ask them five completely random questions generated on the spot by my random question generator. The guest has no idea what the questions will be, and neither do I. No topic is off-limits, and you never know where the conversation will take us!

Expect a mix of humour, unexpected wisdom, and a whole lot of fun as we dive into answers that can range from the utterly hilarious to the surprisingly profound. But that’s not all! At the end of each episode, my guests get to turn the tables and ask me any random question they like to give me a taste of my own medicine.

So, if you're looking for a good laugh, some unexpected wisdom, or just an entertaining chat, join me every Thursday on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, or wherever you get your podcasts. Don’t forget to subscribe and leave a review – I’d love to hear your thoughts!

I'm looking forward to welcoming you to 5 Random Questions, where every question is an adventure. See you there!
