Jane Goodall called out Trump and Musk in secretly recorded interview released by Netflix

A secretly recorded interview of Jane Goodall calling out President Donald Trump and Elon Musk has now been released by Netflix.

The iconic conversationist known for her work with primates died last Wednesday (October 1) at the age of 91.

Earlier this year, she had filmed an interview with Netflix which she agreed would not be released until after her death.

Now, the streaming service has released footage from the interview where Goodall was interviewed by Brad Falchuk.

This is all part of a new documentary series by Netflix titled Famous Last Words, where different icons around the world would be interviewed.

During the conversation, Goodall talked about her career and shared previously untold stories with Falchuk, including her pull towards spirituality in the later years of her life.

However, some comments she made did shock viewers as she candidly shared her thoughts on both Trump and Musk.

She said: “Absolutely there are people I don’t like and I would like to put them in one of Musk’s spaceships and send them all off to the planet he’s sure he’s going to discover.”

When asked if Musk would be one of the people on board, Goodall added: “Oh, absolutely, he’d be the host. And you can imagine who I’d put on that spaceship. Along with Musk would be Trump and some of Trump’s real supporters.”

Giving her final speech directly to camera, Goodall concluded the interview by saying: “I can’t tell you, from where I am, secrets that are not mine to share. I can’t tell you what you will find when you leave Planet Earth. But I want you to know that your life on Planet Earth will make some difference in the kind of life you find after you die. Above all, I want you to think about the fact that we are part — when we’re on Planet Earth — we are part of Mother Nature.

“We depend on Mother Nature for clean air, for water, for food, for clothing, for everything. And as we destroy one ecosystem after another, as we create worse climate change, worse loss of diversity, we have to do everything in our power to make the world a better place for the children alive today, and for those that will follow.

“You have it in your power to make a difference. Don’t give up. There is a future for you. Do your best while you’re still on this beautiful Planet Earth that I look down upon from where I am now. God bless you all.”
