Wiser Than Me with Julia Louis-Dreyfus
Julia Gets Wise with Nancy Pelosi

I wonder now, looking back, if I had real choice there. But I loved it at the time. What kind of girl were you in high school? Were you a leader in high school? No. You weren't? No, I mean, I was a student. You mean you were a good student? You studied hard? I studied, but I have always kind of been into music. I was Elvis all the way when I was in high school. It was Elvis Presley.

When I was at one of the conventions a few years ago, the reporter said to me, have you ever tried to influence the music that your children or grandchildren listen to? Mm-hmm. And I said, absolutely, positively not. For example, when I was a teenager, Elvis Presley came on the scene. He was king, right? He was king.

And you don't know this because they were young, but he was very different from the music that went before. Yes, of course. The scribbling hips and the wah, wah, wah, wah. Yeah, yeah, yeah. And I thought, if my parents ever said... Oh, I wouldn't even have paid attention to them. That would be ridiculous. So, no, I don't want to stand in the way of anybody's freedom of choice of the music.

I've seen a long list of people that she has. Yes, she has a long list of guys. She has a long list, and she's so absolutely wonderful. She is wonderful. But she, again, is talented when we're talking about music and that we dance, we dance around the clock and all this. You're a deadhead. Well, that came a lot later.

One of the things that I love is that some years after, say, into the 90s, I saw this purse. I said, yeah, I haven't seen that purse in a long time. So I took it off the shelf, and in it, say, maybe the beginning of the 2000s, there was a button that said, Deadheads for Dukakis. Yes. Like 20 years later, Deadheads for Chicago. Oh, I hope you save that. I just don't know where it is right now.

Oh, you've got to find it. That's really good. That's so retro, sort of. But when you think of it, it was a political statement. Of course, it was. How do you blow off steam? I do crossword puzzles.

Yeah, it is a start. And that's a start.
