Such a badass.

“Absolutely there are people I don’t like, and I would like to put them on one of Musk’s spaceships and send them all off to the planet he’s sure he’s going to discover … He’d be the host … Along with Musk would be Trump … And then I would put Putin in there. And I would put President Xi. I’d certainly put Netanyahu in there, and his far-right government. Put them all on that spaceship and send them off.”

– Jane Goodall

    Titles like that always remind me that these things are in the bag for them for years. Almost funny in a morbid way when they have production leaks months before their passing.

    I mean, she was old. Netflix was probably sitting on it until she died, so they could maximize shareholder value.

      That’s literally the point of the entire show. Aside from the title implying that, the first paragraph spells it out:

      For the last several years Netflix has been quietly banking episodes of a new show called Famous Last Words, interviews with famous people entering their twilight years. The catch is that episodes will only air after the subject passes away. The full list of interviewees is a closely guarded secret, but last week Netflix quietly posted the premiere episode featuring Jane Goodall.
