[upbeat music] Hello, Wiser Than Me listeners. We've got a special episode out right now only on Amazon Music. I just had the chance to sit down with the one and only Cyndi Lauper, and when I say that name, oh my God. I mean, she's a trailblazer, style icon. The hair, the hair, the voice. Ugh. She is truly one of a kind. Her career was packed with hits like Girls Just Want to Have Fun and Time After Time, but her path in the music biz, far from simple.

I had to eat a lot of shit. Like, I had to, like, do interviews where people would ask me, "Well, you're not on the top anymore, are you?" And I would say, while I was choking back tears, "If this is the path I have to take to go where I'm going, then this is the path. And if I have to chop down the path myself, my own path, then that's what this is."

Cyndi was so honest and unfiltered. She opens up about fame, creativity, and resilience, and why she's still having fun after all these years. Check out my episode of Wiser Than Me with Cyndi Lauper, which is out now only on Amazon Music, included with Prime. And great news. We'll have more episodes coming soon wherever you listen to podcasts.
