Jane Fonda: The Actress They Couldn’t Silence | From Big Lives
from Dinner’s on Me with Jesse Tyler Ferguson · host Sony Music Entertainment
Jane Fonda didn’t just change Hollywood; she rattled American politics, beauty standards, and the birth of modern fitness culture. Today, I’m sharing a preview of a new podcast, Big Lives, and a special episode about Jane. Every week, hosts Kai Wright and Emmanuel Dzotsi dig into the BBC archive to explore the story behind the icons who shape our culture—trailblazers like David Bowie, Meg Ryan, Amy Winehouse, and Tina Turner—and better understand how each legend set the stage for our contemporary cultural landscape. In this preview, Kai and Emmanuel look at how Oscar-winning “nudie cutie” became a firebrand activist and one of the most polarizing figures in American culture.
