Julia Louis-Dreyfus

You've been in Washington so long, Nancy, and you've been on the front lines. You've witnessed so much in terms of the vitriol in the discourse between sides has become so toxic. It's the most toxic I've ever witnessed in my lifetime. Yeah, let's eat chocolate. Absolutely have a piece. Yeah. And do you think, before I ask you any more, can I have one of these too? Okay. Is it good?

Is it worth it? It's delicious. Oh, this is too huge. They're big. Yeah, they're big. All right. Well, anyway, I'm going to ask you this question and then eat this. Do you think it's ever going to be possible to pull back from this toxicity? I mean, do you think it's possible to sort of put the toothpaste back in the tube in terms of public discourse in your heart of hearts?

Yeah, and I think that most people are fundamentally good, and so we have to count on that and believe in that and move forward with that in our hearts and minds, right? The goodness of the American people...

I think I'm going to convert to Catholicism after this conversation. Okay. I don't know what I'm going to do on confession, but I may have to do it. All right. We have to wind things up because you have places to go. I have quick little questions to ask you. Is there something you go back and tell yourself at 21, Nancy? I'm glad we got the chocolates.

So maybe. You would maybe spend more time on a little self-care. A little. Or just a shower, perhaps.

Thank you.

Thank you.

Well, thank you for saying that. My father came here. He was born in France, of course. And so for him to have the opportunity to meet the French president, to come to a state dinner like that was pretty mind-blowing. It was really an exciting—that was an exciting evening for sure.

All right. We done did it. Here we go. You want more chocolate?

Well, wasn't that something else? Oh, my goodness. Ladies and gentlemen. Wow. Okay. So normally, of course, on this podcast, I call my mother after these conversations and I sort of bring her up to speed on the conversation that I've had with the wise woman I was talking to. But in this case... My dear mom was listening because she was so excited to hear it live. So she heard the conversation.
