Ep. 129: Because You Loved Me

On this week's LadyWatch agenda: Ryan and Jason send double condolences to Celine Dion in her time of great grief and try to find the silver lining going foward, support black Ladies in their call to arms against The Academy membership race bias (AND age bias!), and also celebrate Bette Midler's surprise announcement for a 'Hello Dolly' revival on Broadway. Plus: Cher plays superhero to the Flint water crisis, Patti LaBelle plays cougar on the DL, Trisha Yearwood plays a pivotal role in 'Passion' (a live musical event) on FOX, tempering the NBC Must See TV reunion rumor mill, how Linda Ronstadt created The Eagles, Loretta Lynn's controversial presidential endorsement, Belinda Carlisle's website woes, Angela Lansbury's hit and run mystery, Annette Funicello is still dead, and much much more.
