You’re having lunch with three people you respect and admire. They all start criticizing a close friend of yours, not knowing she is your friend. The criticism is distasteful and unjustified. What do you do?

If it is distasteful and unjustified, the only reaction should be to defend your close friend. I'm sure she would do the same for you.

I'm as straightfroward as those people. I might really confront them but in a calm manner still. I don't brag fights.
Well, i might beat all of them as I can't afford to listen all this. I would like to stop their mouth will all means.
Since you admire and respect these people, the best way is to tell them honestly that the person they are commenting is your friend in a non-aggressive manner. If you can try to give some good comments/feedbacks to counter their judgement against your friend of course with justification.
