PLUS: Thanking Angela Lansbury for clearing up her eyebrow-raising comments about sexual harassment, thanking Bette Midler for bringing to light an old clip of her detailing an assault while speaking to Barbara Walters, and thanking ALL the brave women and Ladies who made Time Magazine's naming Silence Breakers as the 2018 Person of the Year possible!

Ryan and Jason pay tribute to a fallen lover of Ladies: THE lover of Ladies, to be clear. The man who would not only become the unarguable face and voice of classic film in Hollywood through his synonymous association with Turner Classic Movies, but who also made a career out of appreciating, paying tribute to, and being a loyal and caring friend to INNUMERABLE Ladies of the past and today, long after the rest of the world had moved on. A man whose loving presence and reassuring devotion gave us some of the most incredible LadyWatching of all time, and whose fierce mission to educate the world on the subject of his industry's past became the best crash course in film studies that basic cable could buy for any of us. The man of a thousand Ladies, Rambling Reporter and Mr. TCM himself, Robert Osborne.

ALSO: New Judy Garland film starring Lady-in-Waiting Renee Zellweger, Melissa Leo fears snipers, Mindy Cohn doubles down on eternal optimism (and getting Charlotte McRae to carve pumpkins), Joni Mitchell's skin-crawling diagnosis, a new tit protest for the NFL in Janet Jackson's honor, a call for a replacement People Choice Award for Loretta Switt, and MUCH MUCH MORE.

Ryan and Jason pay tribute to a fallen Lady: a woman whose raw vocal talent colored many of the great classical musical theatre roles, and later created a career out of painting the great American songbook with same color and depth. A complicated Lady who triumphed over personal struggles and found a later career projecting her vulnerabilities into her work, the soaring soprano of the sixties, Barbara Cook.
