Dustin Hoffman (The Graduate, Kramer vs. Kramer, Rain Man, As They Made Us) opens up about his childhood, his time working as an attendant in a psychiatric facility, and going to acting school with fellow legendary actors Gene Hackman and Robert Duvall. He and Mayim discuss the power of music, the science of acting, and the psychological awareness that comes with Dustin’s performances. Dustin explains why he is so observant and in touch with his emotions and his thoughts about death and spirituality, and Mayim breaks down hypervigilance. Dustin reveals what it was like to be directed by Mayim in her new film, As They Made Us.

Just starting the episode but I have to say to you, Mayim, please hear Dustin when he says “When you tell the truth, it resonates.” And I believe that is why you were able to make the movie with such great people. Don’t diminish yourself nor the work. I can only imagine how surreal it must feel to have Dustin Hoffman saying these words to you, but you must understand it’s because you “did a thing” - a very big thing!! A thing THAT MATTERS and my wish for you is that as this year unfolds with people seeing the movie, and the things that are said to you and about you are words you allow yourself to absorb unapologetically and without qualifications.

OKAY! OKAY! OKAY! Jonathan just did a huge thing for me when he told Dustin Hoffman his emotional range was a super power. I was always criticized by family members for being "too emotional". I never considered it might be a good thing. I'm going to take that on board.

Have you had the chance to watch The Graduate yet? It's one of the film's he talks about in the podcast. The other one is Rain Man. Both are excellent films. Others that I would recommend are Hook, Tootsie, and oddly enough Meet the Fockers. Those five movies alone are enough for someone to see the brilliance of him as an actor. Not to mention the fact that his two roommates were acting legends Robert Duvall and Gene Hackman.

Hard disagree about Sir Alec. He was a brilliant actor. His Jock Sinclair, from Tunes of Glory; his Prince Faisal in Lawrence of Arabia; his Fagan in Oliver Twist; Bridge over the River Kwai; even the 9 different characters he played in Kind Hearts & Coronets back in his Ealing days. Not to mention his George Smiley at the end of his career. A lot of golden age Hollywood actors just played variations on themselves like Wayne to Gable but Sir Alec Guiness wasn't that.

I generally feel like I can say this about every episode, but this one has left me lacking words. Initially I was excited about hearing Dustin (f'ing) Hoffman (!) talk about first acting, and specifically second his life experience. What I witnessed was a human being sharing his life experience and how he expressed that through his acting. But most interesting to me was how often he asked clarifying questions in the moment. Example: hypervigilance; certainly he connected with the concept, but he sought understanding of the word and its definition in the context of the interview. That is a person who is clearly engaged in the conversation and completely unconcerned with possibly being demeaned (totally lacking the right word here) for not understanding, but genuinely more concerned with making sure he was following along with conversation. Perhaps this is one of the many blessings that accompanies age - unawareness of perception, because it's not useful nor helpful if one wishes to connect with another human. And to see a man of his caliber and experience not even remotely hesitate to ask clarifying questions in, yes, an acting related conversation, but more so a human conversation was a joy to watch. I can fully understand why actors like Dustin don't do podcasts (for various and obvious reasons), but I am very grateful this collision of people occurred and was shared. It was quite meaningful to me. Dustin has now extended the line he draws across so many decades of acting and roles to a place that connect him with Mayim, allowing for this interview to happen. Thank you.

omg Dustin's life story hit close to home when he was talking about his upbringing and how he survived everyday in life even to the part of being picked on for being Jewish, From the age of 13 until 40 I was afraid to tell most people I was jewish. I stored my star of david necklace and chai in a jewelry box and wouldnt wear it. It was like a part of me felt ashamed of being Jewish, of course i grew up in a household like Dustin, my parents were conservitive and only time I would know of the holy days was when i went to my relatives homes for Passover, Hankkah, and sadly burials. Burials scared me because I didnt know why things were done (in my book so dark ) I couldnt understand or comprehend any of it, covering mirrors and things like that were strange to me. As I got older I tried to seek out information about where I came from, my heritage, roots, ancestors, and truly wanted to know what being Jewish was all about. Then I got married (to a Catholic man/Latino) and was immediately disowned by everyone in my immediate family. (it changed my life completely and broke me. I had two kids, then after 10 years of marriage (divorce), My father died, my mother never spoke to me and family was bare to none. I realized now i have to create my own family and history with my kids and bring traditions back to the best of my ability. Not easy at all. To this day I struggle at age 62. I journaled everyday for years about my childhood and adult heartache struggles, from as far back at 6 years old to my 40's. I said one day I could make a movie of my life because of the complex things that back then had to be shoved under the carpet. I was brought up to be seen and not heard and not to talk until i was spoken to. My mother and father both were unperdictable on the daily just like yours Mayim, plates thrown, screaming, yelling, slapping, name calling and alot of abuse and torment towards me because I was the oldest of 3 kids and everything fell on my shoulders. When your move came out it hit the nail on the head 1000000%. I never knew one day to the next what was going to happen when i would get up in the morning to when i got home from school. I would always anticipate the worst in every situation. In my world I was scared to think positive because it most of the time turned negative. I could go on but I am sure I am one in a million who have gone thru this not just being of Jewish decent but any ethnic background. 5 years ago I litterially took out my star of David and my Chai and wear them proudly. I know I feel like Dustin said "a bad Jew". That is a true statement in how i feel at age 62. You probably wont read any of this I wrote but if you do know that your movie changed my life and opened my heart to a better understanding of my childhood and adulthood as a daughter of a disfunctional home to a mother of two children (very complex) and divorced and never remarried. I had the honor of meeting you two years ago on the way to San francisco from Burbank you were with your two boys. I waited for you before you exited the plane and asked for your autograph, You were gracious and kind and did give me one. I told you I didnt want to approach you in the terminal out of respect for your privacy or having anyone bombard you. You told me thank you very much for that. I had a smile on my face. You exited the plane, went out the door to drive away and I was at peace having met you. Now your movie was the icing on the cake for me in life. I dont know how much life I have to live but I have to live my best life I can and have to find absolute peace with my childhood upbringing and know that i was the best kid and best teenager and young adult, good mother, wife and now human being I can. Thank youf or that interview with Dustinn Hoffman. Another piece of a puzzle i needed for my healing journey. I guess in a way a story in my book that was told in bits and pieces. I love you and respect you so much.

I don't know if the owners of the channel saw your comment or not, but I did. As someone who was deeply affected by my parents' divorce and the oldest of two, I know how hard it can be to be the responsible and mature one. Whether someone is 32 (like me), 62, even younger, or older like Mr. Hoffman, it's comforting to know that we all struggle. Finding an inner peace along the way and helping others on our journey has to be the goal. I hope that you find the peace that you are looking for and that your children will love and appreciate you. Take care and God bless you and your family.

Such an endearing, honest, and genuine human being. His living a life of ‘hyper vigilance’ ( without even an understanding of the term) was his gift to us. A double-edged sword that provided HIS OCD inherited conditionings for excellence and his desire to be honest in all his WORK so that he could touch our hearts in every portrayal of various human individuals. Meeting him 4 decades ago in my early twenties I knew then what an amazing talent he was even then. He continues to be, not only a universally recognized gift, but an incredible mensch. His family is also very blessed he’s in their lives, not just ours.

I am so happy I watched this episode on this platform. I got a kick out of Mayim's reaction to Dustin Hoffman's compliments and observations on her movie. He is a treasure between his sharing of such personal sh=tories through to his candor about age, overall health and sheer scope of his body of work. Thanks to Mayim and Jonathon for this treasure!

Ms. Bialik, thank you so much for describing the why of why you liked acting/auditioning. You are the first person I've heard explain it that way. I also have always felt that way about acting. My only memory of first grade is being in a play, on stage. I remember I was a flower. I don't think I had any lines. I just swayed and maybe we sang some songs. And when the audience (which were parents and family), stood up and clapped, cheared, had big smiles, they looked so happy. That's the moment I knew/decided that I wanted to be an actor. I just wanted to make people happy or rather be part of that process. Its never been about the applause for myself (for the attention) or for my own ego or out of a need to be creative. In fact the attention also made me uncomfortable. I just wanted to make people feel, whether its joy, sadness, even anger. Also simply to entertain. To give people a reprieve from the day to day. Its never been about me. I just wanted to be part of the collaborative/creative process. When you said that you didn't do it for the attention, I thought, oh my goodness, I'm not the only one. I really felt like kind of a freak because I don't have this need to be creative but rather to be part of the process. So thank you for that!😊

Mr. Hoffman’s story about the man with a stroke singing hit home. My beloved hubby had a severe stroke at age 53. Aphasia effected, he struggles to speak but can sing Johnny Cash songs. Before stroke he spoke 6 different languages so this also can be a barrier to speech. I miss intellectual debates with him. But love that Mr. Hoffman shared this story. He is amazing and send him gratitude for bringing joy to this world.

Definitely one of my favorite episodes so far! What a brilliant and authentic man! I have admired Dustin Hoffman’s work for years. My one shot at meeting him in person was when I studied in London and he was playing Shylock in the Merchant of Venice. I got sick the night of the show, stayed behind feeling sorry for myself... Turned out he gave my flat mates a ride back in his limo! I was heart sick I missed out when I heard that but also was touched by and impressed with his kindness. Thank you for this amazing interview!

Chiming in about the 'being oneself while playing another character' ... I recently saw a Ted Talk about the workings of being 'authentic' and 'un-authentic'. The talk encouraged both but gave special attention to the positive workings of 'un-authentic' manners. For me, being 'un-authentic' has always been dreaded but the Talk explored the positive, healthy and kind workings, its good potential, and the shortcomings of only ever being 100% authentic ... in relating with others. I think this is kinda what Mr. Hoffman touched upon about the pleasant experience of playing another character and getting to know himself at the same time ... sigh, wonderful!

Oh my word what a great podcast. I'm aware of Mr. Hoffman's work. What a fascinating journey he's had and it no doubt contributed to his acting. I love how he stopped you Mayim and bounced a few of your questions back at you. It was as if I was sitting at the dining table with you all and watching a beautiful conversation unfold. Well done team. I found this podcast quite mesmerizing honestly. The wisdom he exudes is profound. Just imagine what we could learn if we could have a round table with a bunch of 80-somethings. Wow. I hope I get to feel such wisdom someday. Great conversation in all directions.

I cannot imagine the mix of feelings you had to have worked with a cinematic icon, and have him be genuinely appreciative of your work. Even for someone who is famous, and has an admirable body of work, it must seem unreal. But Mazel Tov to you! I've seen the movie, and the praise is well deserved.

The genius that comes with the vulnerability, unafraid of showing his humanity, is so rare in humans let alone humans of his caliber. Amazing interview. As an LPCC AND Actor, your podcast I find myself being sucked into like a vacuum, can't get enough. Keep up the amazing work. :)

I have had far, far more experience with Mayim's cookbook than with her show, but this interview with Dustin Hoffman was so very entertaining and moving. Like Mayim, I would be quite happy to listen to a much longer talk with Mr. Hoffman. The connection he has with his life experience and the ability to talk about it in such an unfiltered way is the essential that makes it so appealing. Truth be told, I have never listened to an entire interview of any of Mayim's guests. This one with Dustin Hoffman was different. Gravitas, honesty, knowledge of his work. I can't wait for the Jack Nicholson interview.
