Raw Craft with Anthony Bourdain - Episode Seven: Elizabeth Brim

[@lille-mary1517]

What an awesome woman. Quoting 2Pac and wearing pearls while blacksmithing. And Anthony ending the video with talking about how she is a woman to look up to for his young daughter. Heartbreaking and beautiful all at once. May he be resting in peace now.

[@christopherspringmann]

THIS is the show I recommend when introducing folks to Anthony Bourdain. Elizabeth Brim's soulful conversation, sensitive work, bond with students, is all wonderful - and Bourdain knows to just let it run with a minimum of interruption and an inspired narrative. She's a gracious pro, sharing her talents and skills, inspiring others.

[@cate4338]

he has left us knowledge of wonderful people doing wonderful things - what a great gift, delivered in such a cool and humble way with an incredibly beautiful voice.

[@corbelius6]

This series nearly brings me to tears every episode, with the passion and Raw dedication that these creators bring to their craft, it fills me with Joy! Keep up the Great work.

[@robwor8320]

I honestly miss your existence in this world, Tony I wish there were more of you today. Rest in peace :(

[@shelbyregister9943]

Elizabeth is an amazing woman and artist. We first met her in 2015 at both Fire on the Mountain blacksmith festival in Spruce Pine (down the road from Penland) and then afterwards at Penland School of Arts. I have always loved her ability to create interpretations of items that are delicate. She is just as wonderful in person as seen in this.

[@chocho12321]

"The princesses can party forever." That's a pretty damn good line.

[@Fatmaj7]

Elizabeth is why I love the "art" of blacksmithing. Just the right balance between brute force and delicate artistry.

[@ivanabonacicdoric3448]

If there was no Anthony, we would not know about those wonderful People.. So thankful

[@NevTheDeranged]

Every word out of Elizabeth's mouth makes me love her more. What a delight. RIP Anthony Bourdain.

[@goslin99]

Quoting TuPac... she's amazing.

[@watsxn]

dropping the fing TuPac knowledge. respect!

[@cdaprinz999]

its so cool to see such a removed perspective of him and those times as well like she holds no bias towards either situation she just saw him for who he was

[@deangjerde8071]

The inflated metal is something I've never seen before and was pretty interesting since I've been around metal work most of my life. Definitely an amazing woman

[@jtellames1]

Rewatching this series because there’s no one that could tell a story like Tony!

[@Imightberiding]

Blacksmithing in a string of pearls. Amazing. "I wish I could be a thug." - raises bandana over face. That inflation technique of red hot metal is uber cool but looks dangerous as feck mixing compressed air with super heated metal, especially with no barrier between yourself & the work.

[@DanCarman]

Great effing story! Elizabeth is awesome... Thank you for bringing her to light!

[@KiranBhatWoodworking]

Thank you Tony! You gave these fine craftspeople a fantastic platform. I have watched all the episodes a few times and keep discovering something new every time!

[@zfortyounce]

I have heard and read a lot about Tupac and Biggie. I believe this was the first time I have heard someone refer to their beef as "quarreling". How sweet!

[@WhatACoolArrow]

@KZbin SucksNow only millennials read?

[@jimburns1927]

What a Talented Human being! Her Work is nothing Short of Amazing 🙏

[@TWC43videos]

I am such a fan of Bourdain's. To have him do this new series is extraordinary. Now adding Elizabeth Brim's story, and Penland, is such a huge boost to the fine craft movement. Hooray Anthony ... makes sense to me! What a great educator you are!

[@thewolfethatcould8878]

What an absolutely beautiful woman; inside and out. Her passion is addictive and flows right though her work and to her students. Stunning!!! Love this series, thank you Mr. Bourdain

[@mkivy]

I did not know Anthony did these spots! Well done...so sad he’s gone...

[@MrEazyE357]

Live this woman! She's a G. We miss you Anthony!

[@ShreeHarshaVK]

TUPAC mah man! Inspiring people even after his death. RIP This lady is just plain BADASS!

[@Rocketpower713]

Shree Harsha V K Tupac was a fucking thug... inspiring? smh

[@ShreeHarshaVK]

+Oscar Martinez listen to his speech on being called a thug by the media. he says "I'm not saying that I'm a Thug coz I'mma Rob you and rape you! I'm saying I'm a Thug coz I came from the gutter, and I'm still here'"

[@Rocketpower713]

Shree Harsha V K Fuck what the media said. His actions spoke louder than anything else.

[@FLyyyT_]

Tupac, blacksmithing flowers. Life.

[@chillaxation]

I love the contrast of this lady, pearls and all, with the artistry of her blacksmithing. I think she's amazing!

[@jsholt123]

Absolutely love watching thiis entire series

[@DanielGloverTheGreat]

Dude. This lady is gangster.

[@xprettylightsx]

So she’s a good for nothing parasitic, thieving, violent criminal. et-Al gangster?? Interesting choice. I would dive into the depth of your vocabulary. While there conjure a/an better or even better more accurate descriptor/adverb.

[@4trout12429]

Fantastic Blacksmith Artist! Thank you for introducing this extremely talented woman to us!

[@mj13713]

This woman is amazing! Her strength, to cast off the pressures keeping her in a traditional homemaker role, and to go on and fully support herself and then start offering inspiration to others, is just amazing! and the inflating metal was metal!

[@dallasedc2976]

What an AMAZING artist, and person...both of them

[@worldsnpictures]

I knew her in college years ago... She is amazing

[@remopiccioni9456]

She is tough. She has so much passion. I love this!!

[@gavino299]

I love this woman. A beyond middle-aged, female metalsmith and hip-hop fan?! Hell yeah!

[@mitchellmcdowell8546]

Tougher and more brilliant than just about anyone I know. A true achiever.

[@73BigMC]

Word. This is the best series of promotional content, ever.

[@Tredfsg]

Wow this series is so underrated. Absolutely awesome biopic type episodes that are such great showcases of each individual and their craft. If I could afford Balvenie on a college budget I would get a case just to show appreciation! Thanks guys!

[@Pure_KodiakWILD_Power]

what a woman, what an artist, what a metal worker

[@marcwhiskey]

This is amazing, what a great series. I wish we saw the finished inflated pieces. That blew my mind.

[@sherry2313]

Just stumbled across this and I know Elizabeth Brim through my high school best friend's brother. He and my as my husband are blacksmiths. This was awesome to watch!!

[@Chab-Chab]

finally, after so much teasing.

[@yairondannyroda4015]

[@adios1069]

I love this lady, I love Tupac and if I could come back in another life I would want to be Anthony Bourdain.

[@Pushyhog]

[@march7472]

This is a awesome series. More please

[@richboshart1201]

Mad respect for this craftsman, er, craftswoman.

[@yzwme586]

30 seconds into netflix and chill and she gives you that look 9:30

[@joshuamayberry4301]

Hammering iron with pearls on!! Excellant!!

[@ncooty]

@9:30 That compressed-air stuff looks dangerous as hell.

[@weswoods4814]

This lady is a Badass! So cool to see metal inflated!

[@Talemmuri]

What an 'irony', to make a delicate flower or create a wave from something hard and immovable. Bravo...

[@nicholasnewman5349]

I really do miss him, just a genuine person who was really well liked. The impact he had across many different fields. Mental Health needs more investment. The world needs more like him

[@pascualvasquezjr.6285]

Her spirit reminds so much of my mother.

[@CalebMcLellan]

Inspiring! Thank you for sharing!!!

[@nathanmcollins]

this is probably the coolest thing i've ever seen.

[@victorrodea7163]

Certainly something to be said for strong independent self reliant women. I was raised by one along with 3 other siblings. Hat off to you ladies.

[@BokorRider]

probably the best in the series

[@manisdogfish]

Omgosh I love this lady. She is seriously fascinating

[@fredschofield]

Anthony RIP White of Light of Eternal Peace Thank You

[@tipp0183]

[@barrygordon8813]

This lady is everything right in the world

[@karensmith9462]

Well rounded. Not afraid to explore other cultures positive aspects.

[@3bridges746]

Beautiful artwork. Beer drinking, Pac listening, late 80's Toyota truck driving woman. I loved every second of this video and I have to find out how I can buy, (afford) one of her pieces.

[@williamclements918]

The method they use to inflate the metal is the same as used in Italy to quarry large blocks of marble, except in Italy the metal is not heated and water is used to expand it, thus separating partially cut blocks.

[@matthewlatham3011]

Love these videos very inspiring

[@rifke]

So beautiful.

[@bryguy2049]

Those last few words by Anthony hit hard

[@scotthaun8582]

i love that she wears the pearls!

[@tooljunkie555]

[@Improveng1]

This lady is awesome.

[@chriscaldwell9811]

[@darrylmakekau4750]

It's so weird to see Anthony Bourdain walking around my hometown.

[@onemanwulfpack5954]

[@hullinstruments]

Hammering hot steel and quoting Tupac.....definitely the type of crazy this worlds needs

[@CraigSpannier]

"I hear you love two-pack"

[@annhughes6681]

I can't believe he was in my town and I did not hear about it and it's a very small town.I would love to have seen him

[@ParallaxPete]

[@Unclejohntyskitchen]

Great video. Unbelievable seeing the metal inflate

[@JackofClubs_1]

Very cool!

[@diegoescalante2763]

Its too bad there arent more people like her in the world, instead we have an abundance of mouth breathers.

[@antheaxe7340]

as a blacksmith myself this is awsome cool and thos thing are beuteful

[@noodles.dumplings.kimchi2878]

Dude that comment about hoe he hopes his daughter to be a badass like Elizabeth gutted me. I’m off to cry ugly.
