The world needs more Fran's

Ah, Our Dear Fran. She was/is still, so smart and thought provoking. She gets even better with age.

Totally

Fran Lebowitz is directly responsible for helping me hang on to what marbles I have left over these last years. She is the smartest person in the universe! And one of the funniest. By the way, I don't know who this interviewer is, she may be famous but I'm really not into most pop culture, but she's wonderful and I love not only her questions but her obvious delight in Fran's answers.

Great interview by The terrific Kirsty Wark, longtime journalist and BBC presenter.

I see Fran Lebowitz and I click thanks🤣

Fran is a national treasure. Full stop!

"I don't care how people describe me as long as they never describe me as a republican." I'm three years older than Fran and those are my thoughts exactly.

I have met her by chance on the streets a couple of times, I have bowed to her every time! And I do NOT do that for almost ANYONE!

I have a KZread list of her interviews I can’t find one I haven’t saved 😂

Fran! ❤️❤️❤️

BRILLIANT!!! A true New Yorker!! :-)

Love her!

8:36 The interviewer's last question: "...is Fran Lebowitz a public intellectual or a great raconteur...?" In CC subtitles "raconteur" is interpreted as "wreck on tour" which would probably greatly amuse Fran if she only knew🤫

True😂😂😂😂

great stuff - love Kirsty's questions

I love this woman xx

There's not sufficient superlatives in the English language to ascribe to the great and wonderful Fran Lebowitz

I lOve Fran and ❤️NY ! My mothers aunt Evelyn P Clark lived in Tudor City from the 30-40s until the 90s her whole life in New York City and Never once owned a car and was blind for half of it ..she started AARP.. then came to live with us on Cape Cod.

Absolutely Wonderful 😂😂😂

still in my bucketlist New York👍👍👍👍

7:45 I think the host was expecting a different answer from Fran, meaning she was referring to the announcements about COVID-19 and masks on the subway. Fran took it a slightly different way.

When she said "why not" she should've kept a straight face and been dead serious. And I love the part about trigger warnings and making distinctions.

💜💜💜

I would love to know Frans view on the recent Dr. Seuss book cancellations.

Oh she would hate that I bet she’s angry about it. She loves books and has like 20 thousand books and collects them. She likes children books a lot too. So I bet she is infuriated by this. I would like to know too.

Love her

I love her

My 18 year old daughter gets huge financial package offer from Parsons NYC and says “NY is too comfortable for me” and commits to a college in Florence instead. 🤣🤦‍♀️🙄

What's not there? Quiet. Affordable housing. Quiet.

I'm disappointed that it seems that many of my generation (X) have embraced cancel culture. we are a small generation compared to the boomers and millennials but I expected more from us.

I agree cancel culture is so dumb. Everything is so sensitive now. I like Fran. I like strange edgy dark people lol. Where nothing is taboo. The generations are so soft now it’s gross

Not a good interviewer, in my opinion.

I assume Fran's NY apartment is big enough to take in some of the border crossing babies. I fear they might fall in wrong hands...100x1000s of them+. I'm guilt free. I'm independent voter, would never vote for any 80 yr olds... Politics aside, Fran shall remain one of my favorite public figures.💖

As much as I love her I am afraid it would be cruel punishment. The woman smokes non stop and indoors. She reminds of my mom who would have smoked in your sleep if someone would have held them.
