The globe-trotting food chronicler, who hanged himself in a French hotel in June, gave a lengthy and wide-ranging interview to journalist Maria Bustillos for her recently launched magazine Popula.

The interview was conducted in one of Bourdain's favorite Irish pubs in New York back in February and was only published on Sunday. It covered everything from Weinstein's downfall, the Clinton-Trump election and even Jared Kushner's eyebrows.

Bourdain – one of the most outspoken male supporters of the #MeToo movement – touched on Bill Clinton's sexual misconduct allegations, saying it would not have flown today.

'Bill Clinton, look, the bimbo eruptions – it was f***king monstrous,' Bourdain said, before describing the former presidents as 'a piece of s**t, entitled, rapey, gropey, grabby, disgusting'.
