Medium raw. Anthony Bourdain in conversation

[@celebtrvl]

I never thought I'd be so taken by a man who started as a chef and then created the best job in the world for himself as well as uniting the world through food, conversation and culture. I loved this guy. RIP Anthony and thanks for all of it.

[@ericwoods6286]

He never did any of that. Where are you getting your info?

[@bartonofarrell2693]

I was in the kitchen for 35 years and last year due to covid-19 I retired.i know am cooking absolutely gorgeous meals for me and my parents as I take care of them in their old age and try to keep my house in order by doing my own repairs.so this man was the absolute real deal.i lived it my entire life.being in a kitchen " high end ,or , dive hole , it's a hell of a wild ride". At 53 I am so excited and happy too have been lucky enough to get out on top.

Happy you did, too.

He had something really special about him. Look how many of us are still mourning his loss.

[@matthewwilcox5069]

I don't think he ever realised how much of a genius he was in so many ways. A chef that could make great programmes but also genuinely one of the best story tellers of our time. Above all he was clearly always just real which is rare these days. RIP.

[@nhdarling2]

He was definitely a tortured artist.

[@thesweeples3266]

“Genius” .. really? Your devaluing the word.

[@ericwoods6286]

@@thesweeples3266 Exactly. Why would anyone call Bourdain a genius? He was just a TV chef and nothing more. He wasn't even particularly good as a chef, just a good at conversation and that's it.

He was such a brilliant man. You are so missed and still so sorely needed.

Best interview of Anthony I’ve ever seen. I like how she was equally off the cuff and witty and how he sat slightly uncomfortably in that chair which made him seem even more honest and genuine. He doesn’t have food or drink to hide behind so the only thing we notice is him. Great job! And Anthony we love you. RIP dear man. 💙

[@ridgecarpenter4284]

This is possibly one of the best interviews he ever did...so much covered in such a small time. What a great man

[@christopherraynar1664]

the point at 13:55 , in which he tongue and cheek told her to talk to him in ten years with her telling him that she will, really gave me chills.

"Talk to me in 10 in years" I wish we could, man. I wish we could.

[@TheTraveler2222]

I love Anthony Bourdain, the reason why his shows are so popular is because of his candidness and brutal honesty and audacity whilst at the same time balancing his view with genuine respect for other cultures. He truly is a refined and cultured human being.

[@isabelleb.1270]

Sheridan Isashitstain Please, don’t be part of this shit and listen to him instead... This man was struggling. So many references to death and last meal (“When I plan” just blew my mind)... but few people listen. Too many send a message for a like nowadays... And yes, TOO MANY people on this planet think they deserve *a free meal, vacation* just because they are famous. They are already wealthy and famous... they can pay and share! ✨🧡

[@lo-boy6956]

So well said....

[@chadsknnr]

I agree with The Traveler. To add, when you look back at his work on his shows, his sense of humor and his cynicism, it is clear he was unhappy and lacking self-esteem. It is unfortunate that he left us at the height of his popularity and success. Pity for his child and wife. I still love his body of work; it makes the world a better place . . . .

[@ninaduong9310]

I love Anthony Bourdain, because he is so brutally honest and eloquent, reasonable and imperfect at the same time, which makes him a bit perfectly relatable to all of us.

[@BOWS3R]

What an incredible and genuine person. I really can’t read or hear him talk enough. We are really lucky to have had such a human in the public light

[@lindamulinix8602]

Tony was genuinely kind guy, loved his humor and insight and honesty. RIP world is sadder place without you.

[@MsCoffeeguru]

How can it be that this man is gone forever? I loved him on “The Taste” and then continued to watch him on all his other shows. In his “Parts Unknown” series, he even came to our small state of West Virginia about 3 hours from where I live and gave raving reviews of the beauty of our state and how his perception before he came changed so drastically after meeting the people and seeing the beauty of our state. I taped his shows but now cannot watch or erase them. I didn’t know him but I sure miss him

[@trustthecurrent]

I saw this episode. When people tell me that they didn't like him or that his show was just about food it's one of the ones I tell them they need to see. West Virginia, and when he went to Israel and Palestine.

[@Jolar70]

This was a writer's conference, not a celebrity show! So many comments here about how horrible the host is or how old she looks! Bourdain is probably about the same age but why should that even matter? She's a food critic and a writer which, in this context, means she's in a more informed place to interview him than a Jimmy Fallon or Ellen, etc. I like both of those hosts but you would never get this long or personal an interview with them on their shows. Even Charlie Rose is edited, this was just a live talk that was taped and I'm happy it was. Too much Hollywood is like the fucking chicken McNuggets he's bitching about; momentarily filling but completely processed and lacking in real nutrition. It's an unhealthy standard to judge other things by.

[@zennseven]

Perhaps there are a lot of bored lonely ppl out there? The KZbin comments is someplace we can be someone who listened to. Case in point are a thousand RIP comments all saying the same thing.

[@MakersTeleMark]

I'm really thankful that this interview was published. Captures so much.

[@brandonlantier]

His take on food is so unique, most of us get a few truly inspirational meals in our lifetime, to have been present at El Builli to watch Ferran create dishes and the numerous other wonderful chefs food you experienced must have been both overwhelming and a crushing blow at the same time, to have been to the mountaintop and tasted the best that the world has to offer and then go back to eating every day meals, I regret not going to meet the man when I had the chance he was filming here, RIP Tony thank you for giving us yourself and opening our eyes to the wonderful culinary experiences of the world.

[@hand-jobs]

When Anthony said “I’m doing well now. Talk to me again in 10 years” And the lady said “and I will” I got a little sad. Then I looked at the description. Recorded in 2011. Rip me bourdain

So enlightened! Handled life with grace, empathy, integrity, brutal honestly and so much more. Miss you and thank you

[@teomesay7024]

This man is the only reason I will travel this world. Before watching his shows I never had the desire to do or go anywhere. Such an inspiration.

[@scottmcintire8634]

Thumbing through black and white, colorized and low-res rendered color photos on faded, yellowed pages of exotic tribal cultures, stilted thatched huts and ancient temple ruins in stacks of old National Geographic magazines and flipping the level on numerous ViewMaster discs through richly-colored stereoscopic photos of fascinating far-off destinations as a kid filled me with wanderlust and the desire to see and experience the world someday. Many years later, I would begin to visit some of those destinations halfway around the world and immerse myself in the sights, sounds, smells and tactile impressions of the country and experience the resulting emotions. It was through the TV series and written words of Anthony Bourdain that I would learn how to modify my approach to travel and better experience, capture in photos and video clips, and later write about, my impression and fond memories of things seen and locals interacted with while in-country. Tony was truly a master of the storytelling art.

[@Fatmanstan606]

What an absolute boss, I sometime forget how absolutely brilliant, prescient and introspective he was. He said what I’ve been trying to articulate about MPW for years, thanks for that and RIP big man ✊

Anthony Bourdain is a good story of keeping your hope even at the worst times in one's life, as well as a great example of how one can persevere realizing talent after reaching the lowest point in life, a point where many people had given up becoming another statistic that is expected from most. A great example of how knowing yourself and the value of forgiveness of self and rising above condemnation .

[@as-nm7qj]

I binge watched his shows for about 11 years now, admired his sarcasm and vocab. What a visionary he was, what a fantastic self-proclaimed snarky asshole... He has given me the license to own my dark side and not to consent to 'the big guy' and see the lighter side of life as years went by. It's a shame he is not around because he would have something productive to say. A CHEF, a WRITER, a PHILOSOPHER, a HISTORIAN, many more I suppose and have learnt; an all around beautiful person.

[@mickey8355]

I seem to be at odds with many people about the host. I thought she asked great questions based on how enthusiastic and complete he answered them. And also unlike many other hosts who like to do most of the talking, she let him do most of the talking. She also accurately complimented him at the closing. So I don`t know where all the criticism is coming from about this woman. Maybe I`m just oblivious to it because I think she has sexy legs?

I know he wanted a cigarette , but denied himself for his professionalism. This was on Polk Street in front of Swans Oyster depot a few years ago. I wish I would have pursued his friendship, I feel it was there for the taking. A genuinely nice man that has done more for bringing this world together than any politician. What he said about Kissinger ( Cambodia ) is spot on . He speaks the truth ... RIP AD ( Irony there )
