Julia Gets Wise with Patti Smith

On this episode of Wiser Than Me, Julia connects with legendary 77-year-old musician, poet and author Patti Smith. Julia and Patti reflect on the importance of expressing gratitude daily, life-changing friendships, and saying goodbye to the people we love through art. Plus, Julia talks to her mom, Judy, about a misleading family truism that ends in a nice little nap.

Patti’s enlightened soul

I thought the zoom freezes were a delight. Patti thought so too. Didn’t Gilda Radner do a Patti Smith like character with “Gimme Mick” I always thought it was supposed to be Patti Smith.
Julia’s interview introduced me to Patti Smith I didn’t know at all- I think I briefly read about her friendship with Maplethorpe but I know I’ve never purchased her gbb
Lamusic. I will now and her other writings.
A real Renaissance woman- she’s got everything in perspective and hhow life affirming her story is. Thank you for that treasure which is Patti Smith- I’ll cherish her forever more

Best episode by far

I enjoyed this interview so much. It made me revisit her music and download her books.

Love the podcast concept!

Patti Smith most amazing artist!! I so enjoyed this conversation. She never disappoints, she’s honest and true to her art.

Fantastic dialogue between these two.
