Julia Gets Wise with Jane Fonda | Wiser Than Me with Julia Louis-Dreyfus 

As an 82 year old man, loved the podcast. Glad I never face lifted but regret not being a wiser more understanding husband as a younger man. Much wiser and more understanding in my third act.

Love Jane Fonda!! Thank you for this wonderful talk!! “No” “is a complete sentence “ will not forget this .

Im 46 and looking to learn lots from yourself and your wonderful guests Thank you for the lessons in this journey x Ps. Seinfeld fan for life x

I'm so glad I found your podcast! This was a great interview with Jane - thank you for it.

I love Jane Fonda! Coming Home is one of my all time favorite movies. Love what she said about regretting plastic surgery. I’m approaching 60 and I’d like stay natural and embrace aging gracefully. It’s really hard but I’m determined to do this. Watching Jane go grey in Grace and Frankie was so inspiring!

Love WISE WOMEN!!!

I know this was meant for women but my mother in law suggested I listen and I find I really enjoyed myself. Women and men really are the same. It’s a shame society makes them feel differently.

Thank you for this interview Julia. I have enjoyed your work very much over the years. You are so talented and seem really down to Earth. I can see how you and Jane Fonda could become great friends. For the past two years I just well up whenever I see an interview of hers. What a brave and beautiful soul she is. Absolutely extraordinary. How blessed we have all been to be so entertained and enlightened by you both. Best wishes on your growing podcast. These a very important conversations for us women. I am 59.5… 6 months to my “third act”. Blessings.

Great conversation with a real smart and tough woman but with great style!

I'd love to hear Julia talk to Christina Appelgate!

Terrific!

Finally got back to listening to the rest of the interview. Wow 👌 This interview really speaks to me in my middle age (after having had a "spiritual awakening"). I have always been a Jane Fonda fan. So genuine ✨️... she keeps it real. She's been through a lot & has accomplished a lot. She's an activist because she cares about people and the quality of their lives. Everyone deserves health and happiness. Thank you, Jane Fonda, for lending your voice to issues that affect all of us & our kids and grandkids. And Julia, you seem to have a truly lovely mom. I am also a huge fan of your work, your wisdom etc. ✨️ Thank you for making me laugh so hard all these years! Invaluable ❤️

WELL DONE, JULIA!!!!! (And Jane!!!!) That interview was THE BOMB!!!! As a young woman who grew up loving to listen to my aunts, grandmother and older women talk about life, this conversation was quite beyond the depth of almost everything I'd heard before. Please keep this topic going. And, ya know, I wouldn't mind hearing from some older men too! (IJS 😉 )

Wow I am sharing this podcast with all my friends of all ages. Whatever awards are given for podcasts this one is a winner. 🇨🇦👍🏻❤️

What a treat. I wish there was a resource like this when I was in my 20s. Luv ya ❤

I am so glad I found this podcast. It was wonderful to hear Jane Fonda speak so frankly about aging. She sounds so much like my Aunt Pat toward the last few years of her life. They had the same views of aging as a woman.

This podcast is sooo good. Thank you, Julia! I’m telling everyone I know about it.

Just found this Podcast. JLD is one of the funniest Woman on Eearth.🎉🎉🎉

First thing I ever saw Ms Fonda in was 9 to 5, and that makes me think how much I love her and I really, deeply hope that you get on Dolly Parton and Lily Tomlin. I'd love to hear their takes on life as well.

I just found this podcast and I really always enjoyed you Julia, thanks for doing this, your humor and great ability to be conversational with others is truly inspiring! This podcast with Jane Fonda was so thought provoking! Yes please do a podcast with Lily Tomlin!

Julia - Thank you! It has been so powerful to hear these conversations with these women, to learn from them, to hear from their hearts and to really soak in what that means (at least for me). I lost my mom in my early 30's and without her around I didn't realize how much I craved this kind of wisdom. And the boldness in your questions, the conversations, the hilarity, the vulnerability, the honesty, the courage - all of it - matters. Seriously - thank you so fuckiing much!!!

Thank you Julia! I’ll be tuning in to all your stuff!

Nice chance to hear the comments on life which is fully lived and decided to try their best 🌸

Holy crap, I just heard about your new podcast from your interview on Conan's channel and I couldn't get here fast enough. Thank you, thank you, THANK YOU for creating such a beautiful, important podcast and putting so much love into it. ❤ (Also: Woot! Subscriber 100! ❤)

Two of my favorite ladies!!! I loved hearing this podcast ❤

Just listened to this today and it was Great! I wish it was two or more hours. It was so interesting. Your questions were right on point. Thank you.

Thank you, Julia, for these podcast interviews. I'm a 64-year old women, and I'm loving this 3rd act I'm currently in. Well, not totally. Seeing my face aging sucks. Several years ago I embraced the grey. In case you haven't heard: grey is the new black. Cheers.

Love this Julia! I hope to listen to more

That T.S. Elliot quote resonates SO MUCH! ❤️

Great podcast Julia.! Love you and love Jane Fonda❤

Both of you ladies have made me feel so much better! Totally enjoyed this Podcast!

Love this! ❤

❤️ this. Love both of you! Great interview. Relatable.

Looking forward to this one... as I am just now listening! 👂

Glad I found your podcast

I have enormous respect for Julia. She’s smart, funny and is always uniquely, authentically, unapologetically herself. She’s an incredible role model and the perfect person to be celebrating strong women.

Great podcast thoroughly enjoyed it.

I just love it!

Amazing! I should do it here in México! ❤

This interview was so inspiring. I especially loved when Jane Fonda said that, if she had it to do over again, she would not have plastic surgery. Hallelujah!! She said she wished she would have chosen to age gracefully and accept what comes. This was a huge emotional boost for me. I'm 71 and watching my face turn into those of my mom's, aunts, and uncles, I KNOW that there is no way around it. It's genetic. Having wrinkles is not a character flaw. We didn't do anything to cause it. On the contrary, most of us, like Jane, take good care of ourselves. I was reminded of a quote by Wayne Dyer: "When we change the way we look at things, the things we look at change." I'm changing the way I look at myself in the mirror now, and I say, "This is what a healthy, happy, 71-year-old woman looks like." We'll see if the wrinkles start to disappear...:) Stay tuned.

Thank you for share this interview with the world

Much needed content! Thank you for this✨

I know season 2 is coming soon and I can only hope that it comes with visual. I know that isn’t traditionally what a podcast is about but many “podcasts” are doing video shows now and this is one of those I’d love to be able and see. If not it’s fine, too. I’ll still be listening no doubt. I love you and have so much respect for everything you do and a lot of what you have to say. So let’s make you and these “older” woman more VISIBLE then…… And go live!! Lol

Brava!

thank you I loved that - I'm 63 and I have really started to work out a lot and take it really seriously and I have to say after six months - I LOOK GREAT lol and feel amazing - don't do it in NIKE -lol - but just do it - you won't regret it

Holy cow! 3 spoken commercial sponsors! You’re killing me jules.

So fruitful ❤, do more stuff like this , as a young girl I'm hungry and l need some food for thought and wisdom fries 🍟❤😂 Julia I'm trying to be funny 🤡 ... great work 💯

Why "lived" she still " is " she still is having adventures and is having an. Impact. She's more than before.

OMG! Jane can rewrite The Loved One for boomer generation, perfect sequel to Golden Bachelor. So happy we're a cremation family.

Really enjoyed this! Thank you for doing this. I also am a big fan of the Joe Rogan podcast style and am wondering if you would consider a similar face to face laid back style?

Jane Fonda did the report on the iconic gathering of the biggest rockstars recording "we are the world"

Julia! You have to interview Lily Tomlins ❤

How can I see the podcast?

Life review🎉

It’s a shame there’s no video to this… since we can’t see your senior picture we lose a lot in translation!

Could you make a video tape ❤

Please add video. We want to see the beautiful older faces of Jane Fonda etc...

That’s a much better quote , I should have used it

Jane's description of female activists' humanity & compassion is singularly lacking from those not born women, 1 obvious difference, women are not threatening feminists' lives online or claiming to be more woman than another.

Julia said that people listen to whiite men too much, and so we need to listen to the "wisdom" of Hollywood actresses instead. Good point, Julia! Why would you listen to Aristotle or Francis Bacon when you can learn so much from Jane Fonda? I love how utterly ludicrous and poisonously hateful the Left is now. Keep talking!

I am a fan of yours. Gotta say there is too much cursing in this episode. I fear you might turn off fans. I am not a prude. I am from a huge family and have brothers who were in the military. There was some cursing in the family, but never in casual conversation and never from our parents. An occasional well placed expletive in the heat of the moment can be very effective and understandable.
