Netflix secretly recorded an interview with Dr. Jane Goodall in March, set to air only after her death which happened last week, The Verge reports.

Said Goodall: “Absolutely there are people I don’t like, and I would like to put them on one of Musk’s spaceships and send them all off to the planet he’s sure he’s going to discover… He’d be the host… Along with Musk would be Trump… And then I would put Putin in there.

She added: “Put them all on that spaceship and send them off

No doubt she'd load them on that ship along with anybody who would poach her primate friends.

Punkin for the live video link, I was looking for this and hadn't found it. She is my shero and a shout out to Louis Leakey for giving her the opportunity to pursue the research that began her journey.

I'd probably skip the spaceship part and just launch 'em into orbit naked. RIP Dr Goodall!

classic sci fi played yesterday on tv. michael rennie's last speech to mankind in the movie perfectly bookends goodall's important message.
