    Julia Gets Wise with Julie Andrews
    Jun 5 2024

Acclaimed for her enduring roles in “Mary Poppins” and “The Sound of Music,” Julie brings a depth of wisdom from a lifetime in the spotlight. The pair discuss the restorative feeling of being in nature, their favorite curse words, and Julie’s 60-year friendship with Carol Burnett. Plus, Julia and her 90-year-old mom, Judy, talk about a life-changing health scare in Judy’s past and how it helped her find her creative voice.

Such a Great Idea For a Podcast!

I will remember this podcast! I love the concept, as I'm a 52 year old woman who works with older women, and have always enjoyed their stories and all of the wisdom and inspiration I've gotten from them. Every guest was fascinating and Julia is so real and did an amazing job all around! I love the final chats with mom! I had no idea who the last guest was going to be and was thinking, she needs to interview Carol Burnett! Imagine my surprise when that's who it was! Keep doing this podcast! Please! Just wonderful! someone needs to do one for the men now!

The World Needs This

This is definitely the best podcast I've ever listened to, and I can't wait for the next season to drop. Thank you, Julia, for inviting us to "get wise" with you.

Tremendous!

I have never enjoyed a podcast so much from the opening anecdotes to the interviews themselves and the follow up calls to her mother. Julia is so relatable and connects so completely to the people around her. Please please please do another season.

The questions are perfect to illicit thoughtful answers. And the women she's talking to! Wow. My favorite is ending with a call to her mom. Love this!

Such wise women

Of course they never knew they were wise women when they were young, and maybe they weren’t so wise then, but all the words of wisdom they share with us today. Julia, you’ve chosen well. You can’t just listen to either of these interviews just once, they have to be reheard so they can be remembered. Of all the podcasts I’ve heard, and I’ve heard many and enjoyed them for different reasons, these are my favorite. Don’t stop.
