    The fact that she got Steven to admit that the number he was always thinking of is an odd number just tells you how much Steven admires her. I don’t think he would’ve done that for most other guests.

    Just finished her book. All of it. It confirmed all that I had hoped it would about Barbra Streisand and straitened out the many unbelievable untruths that have been written. about her and Jason. Seeing Jason for the first time recently in a you tube clip. What a credit to you he is.
    As a very young man, I first saw Barbra at our local cinema in the film Funny Girl having no idea who she was. I was and still am, smitten. Since then, her voice and acting has never failed to give me huge pleasure.

    Barbra is just a beautiful miracle of human nature. A work of art of talent, intelligence and resilience. I wish everyone knew how amazing she is.
    The doors she opened for singularity, individuality, different beauty standards, women, raw talent…
    These are the things that put her on the map when she was barely 19 years old.
    Colbert is ok but boy if I had Barbra for an interview would I ask her better things than who’s the best kisser and boy would I not make fun of her when she answers so eloquently to what animal scares her the most.

      I would diplomatically remind her how she made a self degrading joke about her work on Meet the Fockers once then after I had also reminded her that her favorite of her films seemed to be dramas (Funny Girl, A Star is Born, The Way We Were, Yentl and The Prince of Tides),
      I would tell her that I think her comedic talents are unparalleled as featured in Funny Girl Whats Up Doc, The Owl…,For Pete’s Sake and The Main Event and how I wished there were more of that Barbra on film. After that long introduction i would ask her what she preferred drama or comedy and ask her what she thought of AI and the idea of her being in movies generated by AI since she cloned her dog Sammie.
      I would also want to know why she never speaks of The Guilt Trip. (Not a great film but she’s not known to shy away from the truth). I would ask her if she regrets it?
      I would also inquire how she felt about starring in a great film in her 80’s where she plays a Grand Mother whose sisters and children and grandchildren reunite for a summer holiday for her birthday starring Cher, Madonna, Ariana, Mariah, Beyonce (the adopted daughter) and Taylor Swift if Scorcese were to direct.
      I would also want to ask her with all due respect how she became so wealthy by singing other people’s songs (she wouldn’t explain no doubt).
      My list is endless.

    If you like dark meat on a turkey, I hope you've had the chance to try wild turkey, their dark meat is reminiscent of roast beef, only it's a bird. The meat btw is so dense that even though a bird is tiny, it feeds a lot of people, like bison.
    I remember finding thornless roses that I found in the wild, I was shocked to realize that they produce almost no flowers. The real trick to making new varieties of stuff is to try to minimize bad traits, you often get multiple terrible adaptations associated with something really good, this is part of why we graft so much stuff (and have been doing so for many thousands of years, afaik the first thing we grew from cuttings were mutant figs that couldn't self-propagate, we've had seedless grapes for thousands of years apparently, generation after generation of exceptional clones). Few things are more impressive though than what the Natives in NA managed to achieve with their breeding programs for field crops, 2 of the most important (and high-yielding btw!) crops are field corn and potato, neither was especially usable in it's original form and humans turned them into marvelous sources of nutrition. Technology doesn't have to be gunpowder, it's no secret that after the West pillaged the New World they had a population boom, and a big reason for that was much better farming due to exposure to 2 whole continents where people were simply better at it, even without iron or dray creatures.

    I have always loved Barbra's voice, how couldn't you? But more than anything it was the fact when she was BECOMING famous she refused to change things about herself (her nose in particular). It was a bold statement "I'm here, and you are going to have to take me as I am." Pretty powerful stuff!!
