I don't know. I might wipe it off. So much of it The. only issue really honestly, it does look. good, is that it's out Yeah. It's out of. bounds, which is a which is does have. sort of an insane asylum look to it. Do. you know what I mean? Joker thing going on there. But isn't that the classic thing when a. uh Can I fix your lips? Yes. Okay. Um Does this up the. podcast if I do it? at all. This is dynamic. It enhances. Yeah. Oh, I had this dream once. Okay.

I put sunblock on or anything on It's. angry like It's an angry kind of Irish.

Catholic you know. that's good about sunscreen. Yeah, but. when I brush my teeth, I brush them real. hard and my gums bleed and I've had. dentists say your your skull is coming. apart. Yeah. because of the way you brush your. teeth. Okay. and I'll say. I just hate myself and they go, yeah, you just got to you got to try and just. chill when you brush your teeth. Mhm. Um but listen, back to me and then. And then back to you again? And then. back to me a third time.

And then. getting to me uh Wow, I think. Yeah, we're running out of time. Pretty much done. You were right to uh really not feel. anything when you came in here. You were. right. Your instincts were were on. target. This is your second appearance. on the podcast. Okay. Yeah. Uh-huh. And uh so clearly you were. delighted or your team was delighted, so. they had you uh come back. Yes.

As you wishes. Yes. Um. and uh I just love having you here. You. are. adored. You know that. People. Well, uh that's very nice for you to. say. I actually did have a good time. when I was on your podcast last time. It. was one of the first podcasts I'd ever. done. Mhm. I think. And now you have a. podcast. Oh, yeah. And now I have a. podcast. You have a podcast now and I listened to. your interview with Jane Fonda and I. thought it was great. You're You have a. terrific. podcast voice. I'm not a fan of my.

voice, but I think your voice is really. good. Thank you. It's a great idea for a podcast, too. Wiser than me. Wiser than me. Yeah. Which is uh you're. talking to older women. Just getting. their wisdom. That's the plan. I first heard you heard a you had a. podcast and that you had done a bunch, my initial. thought was I was hurt that I wasn't. invited and then I heard that the. premise was I'm talking to older women. and then I thought again, I still think. I could qualify.

I could Come on, it's just you know, a. guy who's right on the edge maybe. Uh But it's a terrific idea. It's really. good. Yeah, it's It's been kind of. mind-expanding to do it and uh and also. daunting because I'm talking to some. hyper-intelligent people and so but I. got the idea cuz I saw Did you see Jane. Fonda's um. the documentary about her? Yes. Yeah. Jane Fonda in Five Acts. Yeah. And. I was so blown away by the scope of her.

life and and everything that she's done. and. and thought and and been. and then I started thinking, well, we we. need Why are we not hearing from older. women? Right. I mean, for real, why are. we not hearing from older women? Mhm. And so that was really the genesis of. this and and uh and it's been. just. pretty mind-blowing that I talked to. Isabel Allende and.

Fran Lebowitz, please, so fabulous, but. lots of it but all walks of life and. it's been Darlene Love and. uh I'm talking to Carol Burnett. tomorrow. That's amazing. Yeah, she's. she's. I've. Some people people throw around national. treasure and you think, yeah, Carol. Burnett, she should be in there. Sometimes they throw that term around. and you think, no. Right. Right. Um but uh yes, my god. My god. My god. And she's like going to be 90.

Yes. Isn't that remarkable? Yeah, she's. going to be 90 years old. God love her. Yeah. What an extraordinary life she's. had. Anyway, so it's been interesting. just to go look to do it through the. lens of. you know, give me tips from the front. lines of life, which is where you are, Right. Right. and tell us. tell me what I should know. What do you. wish you had known now that you know it? And um.

you know, and it's been pretty. fantastic. I also find it uh something. happened. I think for most of human. history. we revered old people. That's right. the elders. Yeah. We made them the keepers of all. the wisdom and then sometime around. 1966, we decided that anyone uh over 40 was an. idiot and shouldn't be listened to and I. think that was a mistake. I'm sorry. This is the serious moment. where you forget you're wearing.

lipstick. I'm Oh, I don't forget it. I don't forget it and trust me, I think. especially women need to be heard at. this moment. And this lipstick is. helping me. This is going to undertake It's going to. undercut like what if I start really. talking about how racism is a problem? I. really start talking about very serious. stuff or genocide in some foreign. country and the video comes out of me. with this makeup on. like you just had a Fudgesicle. I I got to say I don't think it's bad.

I think it's a it's a subtle color, so. I'm not I I think it works for you. Yeah. Mhm. It's going to smoosh it. around a little. It feels good, too. Why. are you smooshing it? Yeah. What's that? Here's a Kleenex. What does that do? I. don't know. If you wanted to take it off. because you're trying to make a serious. point about aging. Gracefully. I actually think that um. that. older women are particularly discarded, you know? Yes. More so than men. Yes. No doubt. Yeah. And uh uh.

so, you know, let's change that. narrative. I listened to your one with. uh. Jane Fonda and it looked like you'd put. a lot of thought into it and it felt. very well. um constructed, especially the the the. the first part and I thought, huh, that's different than my approach. We we go in half-assed. and start babbling and maybe some. lipstick is exchanged, but yours was uh. I felt beautifully put together.

Thanks. That's really nice for you to. say and yeah, I worked hard on it.
