This interviewer is terrific and this is the best interview I have ever seen with Carrie Fisher. Now that she's passed away they're all on RUclips and I've been watching them all, and I was blown away by this one. Great questions.
I know...I'm running out of stuff to watch. Once I've watched Episode 8, that'll pretty much be it. I'll try to track down those episodes of Catastrophe.
Funny story about this interviewer, he was falsely accused of sexual assault by women he had consensual S&M type sex with. Then, the Toronto star reported it and thus ending his lustrous career as prominent Canadian media figure, this happening before the trial even began and any evidence had yet to be heard. The trial resulted in an acquittal, mainly due to inconsistency in the testimonies of all three of his accusers and evidence of collusion amongst some of them - not to mention a plethora of written and electronic emails submitted by some of the complainants to Jian Ghomeshi often within days of the alleged acts, these included classics such as "I love your hands". Now, much to the chagrin of the social media brigade, he's actually just come out with a new podcast where he is once again provided an outlet to spew his SJW horseshit once again if you're interested.
Q has been terrible ever since he left. He made the show what is was, is an excellent host and had interesting guests covering many genres. What exactly is "SJW" horseshit? And btw, the last woman still stands by her accusations. He had to officially "apologize" to her by court order.
You can see how in love he is with her. He is so captivated that he had a line up of in depth questions and practically begged her not to go so he could spend more time talking to her. This is so freaking adorable. He keeps complimenting her and building her up, too, which is very sweet.
He was acquitted of five of the charges on March 24, 2016. On May 11, 2016 the Crown withdrew the last remaining charge after Ghomeshi signed a peace bond and apologized to his accuser.
He just started a new podcast called "the Ideation Project" based on the style of the extremely well written and often moving opening essays he would read at the beginning of every episode, those who listened to his era of Q will know what I'm talking about. It's worth checking out, maybe if he gets enough attention he might just come back win an interview podcast. After all, whatever his bedroom antics, he is a phenomenal interviewer.
A gem of an interview, wit, generosity and goodwill all around, Carrie Fisher is greatly missed, an authentically intelligent voice that she shared with us all♡
I love Carrie so much and ever since I learned of her death & her mother, not even two days later, I can't watch anything with them without tearing up. They were such icons, and their loss has truly showed me a disturbance in the Force. I'll miss you Carrie & Debbie, may we meet in the next life
When I watch Episode 8, and the inevitable "In loving memory of Carrie Fisher(and Kenny Baker)" appears onscreen, I may very well break down again(if they show it AFTER the movie).
Very ironic comment from Fisher at 29:00 about hiding things about oneself. Clearly she didn't realize how germane that was given to whom she was speaking. Still, despite his severe personality flaws and warped behaviour, Gomeshi was a very good interviewer most of the time and had a perfect "radio voice". As a musician I wasn't surprised that he started picking her brain about Paul Simon's inner workings, but she managed to shut that down pretty quickly. A very intelligent and witty woman with loads of talent. Such a shame that she and her mother are no longer here,.
This is the most intelligent interview of Carrie ever. Bravo. Carrie was able to be at ease and not on the defensive. Missing her, I have been looking at many of the interviews she did, and this is the best. Thank you.
Great interview, you have to love Carrie Fisher, there was a little moment when she was talking about secrets, whatever secrets you have make you fearful, because they are weaknesses, and you are afraid they will be found out, and they will be found out.... knowing what the host is accused of now, it resonates... it didn't seem to faze John, he's very smooth, great interviewer, but it's one of those soulful moments.
+Williamharold1000 Jian is a great and tremendously talented interviewer. His ability is that he actually listens unlike many interviewers who interrupt the person being interviewed. What is outside of the interview is another matter and the maxim "innocent until proven guilty" applies. It's truly sad that such an outstandingly talented interviewer had his career derailed for whatever the reason.
I used to watch her interviews before she passed, and I keep on doing it. There is something special about Carrie Fisher, she is a powerhouse. There are my favorite actors, actresses, musicians, singers, directors, writers, painters, and then there is Carrie Fisher, in a league of her own. If I had to pick one person from the whole show biz that would be Carrie Fisher. I love her very much.
This guy is a wonderful interviewer, he’s serious and compassionate with is lovely to see. Carrie is really just herself and as usual truthful and beautiful. Thank you.
I believe the aging one saw in Carrie wAs just due to lifestyle, diet choices ,& smoking. The smoking changes the tone of voice. Stress also does this - she had many mental issues to deal with,. Bless her for her strength ,& humor. No matter how she felt- she was a beautiful lady.
mscentrumo4: Blessedly, we have this interview, where Carrie is charming & candid, and the Joni Mitchell interview from This Guy, too. Neither woman knew of his past...or enough about him. The silver lining? These women? Shone through....
I saw 'Star Wars', I'm a fan. But I never 'lusted' after Carrie Fischer like a lot of my contemporary fanboys of this generation. I love the way she interviews...she's like Orson Welles or Bill Murray.
Carrie Fisher is a legend, to be sure, however, the people of "Q" that hired the interviewer made a wonderful choice. Clarity, Q & A pursuit, and general candor was / is very professional. His thought provoking circuitous route of meshing with the actress was brilliant. A quick finale note to this? Her role as the vengeful "Curl up & Dye" beautician, setting her sights to kill Jacob Elwood Blues HAD to have been one of the least appreciated & applauded characterizations that so deserves credit
I could watch this talk for ever. It is such an everyday talk, yet so revealing into Carrie Fischer's life and great character. I know Carrie Fischer is not a saint, by the life she lived. However, bringing joy and radiating life to other people are common traits of saints, so on that score, Carrie Fischer is definitely a saint. In addition, she is funny as hell. God bless you Carrie Fischer. I miss you, though I never knew you. RIP!
The story of Jian is heartbreaking. He deserves whatever hate he gets nowadays, but fuck man...I can't think of a better interviewer than him. The guy was next level good when it came to leading a conversation.
It's crazy, and astonishing, for me to hear her say she was insecure about her intelligence and her appearance, when I've been in love with her for as long as I can remember, precisely due to her brilliance, her ascerbic wit, her drop dead gorgeous looks, and her power, her power on the screen, her power over an audience be it live or in a movie theater. She was my first on screen crush, when I was 10 and Star Wars came out in 1977. I love you Carrie, always and forever, precisely for your beauty and your brains.
@averageswede1 Jason Segel's interview will be airing on CBC Television on December 11th - and then will be posted online in its uncut awesomeness the following week.
I always really liked her. Seen a lot of interviews with her over the years. I honestly got kind of bummed out when she passed away, which seems weird since I didn't actually know her. It kind of seemed like she'd really gotten her life on track pretty well, and then BAM...grim reaper comes a calling. Hope she's doing well in the great beyond.
case). At the very least, she should renegotiate her contract for the new Star Wars trilogy (assuming she's involved, which quite frankly, would be quite stupid if she wasn't) so she makes royalties off of her likeness. Or, she could take part in expanded universe voice acting stories written by fans under the Star Wars license (that really is the least George could do), like The Big Finish with the Doctor Who universe. The sandbox was built a long time ago. I think it's time for some fresh
Daughter father. Says it all.losing your father by death is hard. Father leaving his family, when your young...you don't realise you can still see him.
The fact that the woman is pushing 60, and is 3 decades removed from her most known look, pretty much guarantees that you'd have to look "really hard to GUESS". I'm really not sure what you expect a 56 year old Carrie Fisher, or a 56 year old ANYBODY, to look like.
Gotta be strange to know that Slave Leia is like the #1 Halloween costume/cosplay of choice for young women/geek/nerd wet dream. I'm sure that isn't at all creepy to have that sort of pressure just laid out at your feet or be picked apart as the epicenter of geek girl protagonists.
Dude... wtf? So much Star Wars merchandising crap and no royalties for the likenesses of the actors? wtf??? ... ... ... LUUUUCCCAAAAAAAASSSSS!!!!!! That dude better be writing a big fat apology check right frickin' now. Reparations for likenesses profited from, long overdue. I understand if the actor us no longer with us (like John Wayne riding a shampoo bottle in an ad, however ghoulish that may seem, or Beethoven's collected works going into the public domain), but Carrie Fisher is still
I am almost 56 myself and I haven't changed like this. It really bothers me to see the plastic faces that women in Hollywood go for as they age (even the ones in their forties). Helen Mirren has steered clear of it. She's much more fabulous than any of our Americans (except Meryl Streep although I suspect she's had some work done on her eyes) because she looks real. Just an opinion of course, but it's really obvious to me and it's sad.
pathetic that you focus on this and no one cares if you think you have aged better and the fact that you are 56 and bringing down other women is even more pathetic. You also probably haven't been taken drugs and hard core anti-psychotics since you were 24 either soooo.
Couldn't find that but saw her on Craig Ferguson. | do not agree that she looks normal. If I didn't know who she was I would have to look really hard to GUESS.
Well, Thanks RR, but I won't go around saying how great and normal Carrie looks when she has massacred her natural face. And Carrie's career, along with all the other actors in Hollywood, is all about what she looks like, so if we aren't paying attention to what they do with their faces, we ignore the essence of their careers. If we're here commenting on theis interview, we are "bothered" by what they do.
"Celebrity is just obscurity biding its time"
That is so true. Carrie is very wise. I love her.

Yes, he was very good. Unfortunately he assaulted several women and is now off the air!
He was acquitted by a court of law, no?
