What a joy that Seth interviews writers. That’s one of the (many) reasons why I’ll die on this hill: that this is the best late night show there is. Hands down.

[@RakeshSharma-in5mz]

Also. Julia’s Disappearing Earth was stunning. Looking forward to Bear.

[@freefoodchef7939]

Completely agree! Seth is just ideal for this job and kind and classy to boot.

[@pattygiovinazzo6860]

Totally agree

[@rebeccasinclair7672]

👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏 👏

[@tadhgbrodie-moyes4950]

Please, Craig Ferguson did it first and better. When Seth invites them to Scotland then we can talk

[@jennifersantosuosso4479]

Thanks Seth for having writers on the show. It always gives me suggestions for my TBR list.

[@RO8YO]

The authors continue to be the best guests.

[@gratefuljackal8183]

Love it when Seth has writers on! 🐾🐾

[@MoneyGist]

She's such a lovely storyteller. I could listen to her talk all day 😂

[@leodegas7731]

Great interview 👍. The Art of interviewing is asking interesting questions and then listening to the answers. She had Great answers. I'm going to start reading again.

[@themorales6]

God, Seth’s genuine interest in people is infectious. He makes me want to read that book! What a lovely interview. ❤️

[@sv8911]

As a writer, himself, Seth is a great host, to writers. This was delightful. Well done, both of you.

[@katietoole8345]

Serh asks writers questions like I imagine I would interview my favorite writers. He asks the questions I wiuld want to ask.

[@lynnhettrick7588]

She’s delightful!

[@RosieRoseDesigner]

What a great interview. I also had a pandemic baby, loved Snow White & Rose Red as a child, and was a younger sibling. Will absolutely be reading this!!!

[@latenitecaptain]

Beautiful individual. Lovely smile.

[@lynnhettrick7588]

Bears are having a moment. Between Cocaine Bear, The Bear, man in the woods vs bear in the woods, and now the book Bear.

[@DOSkywalkR]

Funny how she keeps shaking her head, probably mirroring the sentiment of the last writer he had on who said "thanks for having authors on the show", she seemed to be in disbelief ^^

[@freefoodchef7939]

His questions for authors are always so intelligent and insightful, as well as respectful to the authors. You can tell he is a real reader, and there are not a lot of those anymore.

[@lashendawest7509]

We love julia phillips

[@tatianao9048]

We really do!❤

[@katietoole8345]

Her nails are FANTASTIC!

[@MarieClaude]

Always more authors and writers!

[@mariyamwaniki]

Great dress. Yes, she's intelligent and personable but I like the dress. To make up for my shallowness I just ordered the book on Amazon. 😆

[@NITE_SHIFTING]

Agree. Great dress. Way better than Alex Cooper's TEMU dress a day or so ago. IMO (of course). 😮

[@TheDroppedAnchor]

As a HUGE fan of my local book stores and even Powellsbooks online I never thought I would say this about a sentiment that ends with “ just bought it on amazon” but good for you!

[@pattygiovinazzo6860]

The dress is amazing! 😅

[@eileendunn2130]

Yes, but one has to have the body for it.

[@maelingnaihe1781]

Wow!!! I have got to read it now!!! she is so exciting. My next Summer read.

[@deannawebster6294]

She'd be fun to sit around a campfire with. Nice interview!

[@jennyfinkel180]

I can't wait to read this book!!

[@jasminej.524]

Finishing this book now --- love seeing this interview. I'm almost done and I love knowing that a Brothers Grimm tale inspired this because the vibe I get from reading it is ...intense.

[@marciaalbaum2597]

fabulos one of my best books ever

[@jasonmoses6207]

If someone told me that Julia Phillips and Seth Meyers were siblings, I wouldn't be too surprised. Compare their profiles and smiles.

[@jimtokheim1422]

Well, you've sold me on the book, and on doing a bear experience hike in Katmai.

[@christinacascadilla4473]

She has a nice smile.

[@latenitecaptain]

Beautiful individual. L 1:39 ovely smile.

[@HighHeelKnight]

I love a lady in a pair of t-strap pumps! 👠

[@pigeonhed13]

Jeez Seth, did this Junior Jackal just catch a mistake?? There very much is an actual bear in The Bear.

[@lykaveniceva4359]

Let’s share our own experiences related to the video’s topic!

[@heruprimayoga-sx3pk]

Takk fyrir frábært myndband! 🇮🇸

[@AnaLuiza-cj8gx]

To anyone who reads this, please pray for my recovery and send positive thoughts my way.

[@DUO_00]

What camera settings were used to get the depth of field in this video?

[@ArneAsada69]

She got a dope body for an author.

[@NewMessage]

So it's not about a chef then.

[@QuintonLeo]

Her mannerisms remind me of the current King of England...

[@zealotestheaussie5880]

So a kid comes into the store and says, “Hey mister….I gotta do a book report for my film appreciation class on ‘NCIS Sydney’. Have you got something?” And I say, son…I have just the book for you! It’s called ‘Analysing NCIS Sydney for a book report at Bronx Science High.’ Here’s the opening paragraph: ‘NCIS Sydney is partially funded by the US and Australian governments to promote AUKUS alliance relations. CBS and Paramount are in it too. This show yet again uses Hollywood bs monumental dramatic licence to hold the viewer and sell the stream time access. The US NCIS and Aussie Fed. Police greet each other like Putin greeting Navalny: NCIS agent: I’m in charge here. Aussie cop: Phuck off. I’m in charge in here. It’s real teenage boy get-off-my-turf stuff, when it actually it would go like this: NCIS: Great to meet you. I phuckin’ love the Aussie accent. Aussie cop: Hey bro. I phuckin’ love NFL but hate Brady with a passion. NCIS: I’m a Falcons fan. Right there with you bro. Brady sucks balls. And the kid says, “No offence…that all sounds a bit amateurish and street talk.” So I read the author profile blurb and it says ‘Author, Barry Mulligan, is an amateur film reviewer in Sydney. His cousin is a bounty hunter in Colorado, and both guys phuckin’ rock!’ ….but the kid is already out the door…
