Let's move on Randy and talk about the life of Barbara Lamar Let's talk about babes for a minute Barbara was a was an American film actress Randy and she was a screenwriter later on Multi-talented she appeared in 27 films Colonel during her brief career between 1920 and 1926. She doing porn I don't know.
I don't think she did part. She did burlesque Well, it's kind of close I guess she was noted by the media for her beauty Colonel. You like this so my she was No, she was done. She was done by the press the girl who's too beautiful to live Colonel And I really do feel like that's like putting a head out on her I think it might be kind of overboard in their description But anyway, she lived a tumultuous life Randy.
Mm-hmm, and we're gonna talk about that perfect Brandy she was born Retha Dale Watson No, not your reefer. No, just just Retha. No, not a just Retha. Just Retha.
R-E-A-T-H-A Retha Retha Retha Stupid name that's probably watching Retha Dale. We believe she was born on July 20, 30, 1096 in Yakama, Washington Mmm, that's pretty fucking old for the purpose of this podcast We're going to refer to her by her staging that she took later on with your sparba Lamar Which I you have to agree is a little bit better than I still like Retha Retha Watson Anyway, we're not sure exactly when she was born where she was born because you just fucking said when she was with I'm going by her so you're giving fake news out there. No, we're going by her We're just we're just she's that's what she's mentioned later on in life She's told people that but no one has ever seen her birth certificate girl. She lies about her age It's kind of she like Obama.
Hey kind of no. No, I don't think you lie about age I don't know she was well. Here's a question there's it's part of the story She was when she was one years old she was adopted by a family called the Watson's Now there were rumors however that she was an illegitimate child of an aristocratic family in Virginia Colonel bastard That was the word on the street. Yeah, girl babies be bastards.
No, but in 1896 that was not you know being a Unmarried mother was quite scandalous back in the day. It's pretty goddamn scandalous right now Tim Well, isn't you know, I got a high-morko, you do you do and I don't want to offend anyone You don't believe that you think fornication is only for should be only for reproduction reproduction purposes only Mmm, you know on our Facebook page. I think we've got some fornicators on that page. We got tons of point okay I can name the three people who ain't fornicators It's people you would not expect really yeah, you're not going to disclose them well Amber group Yeah, she's not a fornicator because she always putting on a page how much she wants to be fornicating right then So you know she ain't doing it so you think that she is that that's kind of she's being the seeple no She wants to fornicate.
She's just ain't doing it. Yes, but she's very lovely. So I'm sure she can't Ornicate any time she's probably fornicate anytime she wants and we got let's see well of course me because you know I got that more purity to me. Yes, you're known for your anti-fauna can we steer this bus on fire back on the road?
I like to Barbara Lamar. All right speaking of fornicators. Yeah, I've fornicate all the damn married. I don't fornicates Don't be crazy.
Can you point a kid when you marry yes, you can't you didn't know that When you was married it was thought it was making How do you feel the difference between fornication and making love this what would you vomit? I don't I don't that term just make my screen for making You know what the only time I can eat it's beautiful. It's an air supply song First of all you need to shut up. They were they were a studio band.
They never toured. Oh, I don't care same with Toto No, Toto does tour. Yeah, they should You're still getting out fake news back to Barbara. It's a nonsense And that was Toto so Barbara was adopted by the Watson's and they kept they moved around a lot He her father her adopted father was a work for the newspaper a newspaper to a journalist and I reported or something added or something Anyway, they settled in Los Angeles, California, girl.
Mm Beverly Hills About that like a Beverly Hill bill for kind of thoughts about that. Okay, really from an early age Barbara was exceptionally lovely branding and very clever mm-hmm She loved to read and write and started performing with traveling stock companies when she was still a child So she's doing like vaudeville so they put they pimped her out by the time she was a pre-teen She said her life her going life. Colonel. You'll appreciate this was to die a tragic death while wielding a dagger Well, who doesn't want to die like that dude?
I don't like I want to die like Michelle and with a big old katana Just wielding that shit everywhere. She did on the show. Yeah. Nope what show is that?
She's bad ass on the walking dead. Oh, I want to die bang and Rick. Yep, Colonel. I want to die like Tony Montana face down and cocaine Whipping at his little friend say hello to my little friend the last words.
I want to hear to me Are you get off my hair someone push this fat ass off me? Get off my hair or get off my lawn She barber was as you can tell probably a little dramatic. No, and she wanted to she wanted to be an actress Her ambitions eventually brought her and Watson family to Los Angeles I said where the budding film industry was budding I guess good She you know, I should trust my writing sometimes when I read this I don't trust my writing and we don't trust her I have live and then it sounds like oh, that's why you you know, I write it's weird cuz I write with good grammar But I don't speak with good. I'm not she began dancing in Los Angeles for less shows Brandy at the age of 13 in Alabama No, it's not Alabama.
You're thinking of Roy Moore. Yes. I am she entertained millionaires and politicians see more more Eventually she was arrested dancing for dancing nude Colonel when she was just 14 years old. Oh, that just again Yeah, was she dancing for Roy Moore?
Like this she was charged with indecency however the judge felt pity on her and said she was too pretty for prison There you go and too pretty to be left alone in unprotected in a big city a couple weeks after being a giver Couple weeks later Barbara and the judge began dating he was 56 years old cuz he's a giver I'm gonna feed your inputs in it and know them the romance did not last long However, cause the judges why I found out and threatened to divorce. You put a kabosh on it. Yeah, bitch Yes, I'm telling you man. Why can't there's another fun sometimes?
They were you find a fun jealous thing. Yeah, yeah, it's all the fun you could add that Renee would always own My life would have just been debauchery you'd be dead Homeplaying Xbox and then my basement my mom would still be alive. I'll be living in a basement I'll be living in a van down by a river. That's pretty close.
I think I do to her court appearance when she was in court She was kind of discovered by a journalist and he introduced her to a magazine editor and I think Jack Campbell and he showed interest in her They began dating and he published a double page spread of including photos of her when she was just 14 years old bros Yeah, well, not the time should have been she left the attention she received from appearing in magazine And soon learned that publicity was very important to her acting publicity. Yeah in January 1913 Colonel She was 16 years old and she became a local sensation when she was reportedly using air quotes You're kidnapped by her half sister Viola and her Viola's married boyfriend CC boxley. You think about that Randy? I think why you keep asking her that she ain't got no fucking attention.
She's been here listening I'm sure you have no opinion on it. I'm harvesting second of all. What do I think about that? I think her parents did a bang up job Fucking raising them So at the time a headline in the Los Angeles Times read we're all missing warrants out absence made father take stress to action says he is he fears pretty actress pretty young actress maybe in the hands of white Slavers ah did he really say that according to the le time?
I can never figure that out now the white slavers are the white guys who are grabbing slaves or are they grabbing white people's lips? Yeah, I don't know it was a man It was what they called the man act where you can't take a Isn't it ironic that you call it the man act and it's you can't take a push can't take a woman across state lines Yeah, for more purposes. Yeah should be a woman act Few days later after her quote unquote kidnapping she returned to LA with viola and CC boxley and viola and CC boxley were arrested In an extraordinary statement Barbara claimed that she had been tricked into leaving Los Angeles by her wayward half-sister who had been estranged from her parents for over a Year according to Barbara Viola told her that she had had just had a fight with her boyfriend CC boxley sounds like a dastardly character brain really does Anybody does better initials mm-hmm and that goes and she wanted to finally wanted Barbara alone as protection She said he was violently jealous of her and she feared that he might assault her so they motored out of the city Brandy And she apparently she first thought they were going to a little town nearby Riverside We should nearby but she thought they'd be back the same day, but boxley CC boxley that cad cad he drove around to Burbank And from there to palm Dale nothing good happens in Palm Dale, California There Barbara mailed a letter to her mother telling her not to be anxious I don't know if you send somebody a letter telling not to be anxious I mean if you can send him a text saying everything's okay Don't be anxious, but you send him a letter and back then it took him five days So this is no pins and needles why not why not make a phone call? Yeah, I think her story is a little bit suspect.
Yeah, I think yeah She claimed that she was closely and he watched and did not care or did not dare to try to give any warning that she had been carried away against her Will hmm when the three of them reach Santa Barbara Barbara slipped away and telephoned her friend in Los Angeles She probably had to like get the operator on the phone Clara Sarah. Yeah, Sarah Soon after Boxley did you remember the party lines? We had a party line when I was little Soon after CC boxley approached her with a paper in his hand He said the police were newspaper and said the police were looking for him and he better take you know He had to take Barbara back home. So CC now's in hot water CC should win under lamb to me.
Yeah, yeah, yeah He told her he told so he's trying to step a story with Barbara He told to explain her disappearance to police, but according to barbara. She was determined to tell the whole truth It's nothing but the truth. Yes, so help you know, I probably joke Friday search for writing on the case Colonel Potter. Yeah, yeah Yes, yes, history Anyway, so you know mocksleys and hot water he's trying to get her to tell us tell fit However, it seems Barbara was already honing in her magnificent storytelling abilities at age 16 She had was already learning how to attract a public eye charges were brought against Viola and boxley But they were soon dropped the LAPD claimed that they claim to have discovered that barber did not seem to be worried over her plight In fact, she was in a happy frame of mine and told some people that she enjoyed the motor trip from Los Angeles immensely Talk home syndrome whatever the escapade was followed by her supposedly first marriage to the mysterious Jack Lidle brandy mysterious Jack in 1913 when Barbara was just 17 years old there you go Lidle Like tell I guess was a wealthy Arizona rancher who she claimed had forcibly carried her off on a horse to Mexico for a quickie marriage Forceably carried him carried her off on a horse not well and Mexico dragon or behind that's true.
Why she needs to look on the bright side Oh, so what's legally married to Mexico? I think babes is a fiverr Once legally married in Mexico Barbara decided to stay with a light La Talle. Yeah, you know Why not and moved on his ranch outside of LA, you know, since I'm already married. Yeah, and they got horses now It was I wonder if you if you was if you own a ranch and you're happy are you a jolly rancher?
Yes But it was not a happy but it was not a happy marriage brandy, you know of all the of all the episodes we did that may just be Lowpoint yeah We've had many like and that's saying something we got a low fucking bar across two So it was not a happy marriage Barbara could not handle the life on the ranch. It's hard life You gotta get up. It was like a coach. I'm gonna milk cows and horses sometimes Jack you do Jack repeatedly fought with his young bride and Who wanted to go back to her sensational life in Los Angeles.
Well, yeah after one of their fights Lidle walked away in the rain angrily Did he have an accident Because of the rain he caught pneumonia brandy of course he did and died two days later in early 1914 Accident chill probably did get a chill Barbara was driven by feelings of y'all brandy. I'm sure she is I can already tell you this bitch ain't got a conscience and it soon developed into an addiction to alcohol How what was your grades in history? I got a's Yeah, okay, so in 1914 at the age of 18 Babes married husband number two all right a dashing and equally notorious Lawrence converse Maybe the air to the Converse Empire probably not I got a person right now after a courtship of three days Okay, it was it was we got a short but intense But it was soon discovered that converse was already very much married three children that puts a damper on the romance Yeah, well, he was thrown in jail for bigamy Claiming that he just had to have the dazzling Barbara. Well, what do you think having two wives is punishment enough?
Well, you know the thing is if you you know when short people married two times they can get arrested for bigamy Jesus You know, this is a special Saturday edition right and I Gave a little bit. Yeah, I've been I was up till four in the morning last night and it's they I was out of bed very early I've had one decaffeinated soda. It's getting ready to fall off. So why don't you go ahead and push that back where it goes?
Jesus, you know fucking leave this place looking like a goddamn frat party happened all the fucking time Jesus, it was soon. Okay, so he's got he's got another wife. He's in jail now All right, so this is a second. This is her second.
Well, let's not call it a marriage I mean, I'm pretty sure that that second one didn't count this sent the surplus bride back home to Burbank where her dramatic reunion with her family Was oddly enough after they received a phone tip from babes witnessed by reporters for the LA times Oh, so you had a way of getting attention. Yeah, she did well dad. She said this is a back home This is a quote. Okay, what's she saying?
She said well dad. I'm back home. Okay, and the dad said well, you're back But I don't know yet whether you're home or not Implying I think you get married on the way back. Yeah, that she might be a little loose in the caboose When you think about that colonel women who have a reputation for fornicating Oh, she was a ho I mean, it's girl.
I don't want to let you be she was a ho she was straight up Oh, wait a minute. Here we go. Hold on. All right, the girl whose beauty has made her a celebrity by now went up to her father Through her arms around his neck and began to sob now the next quote.
I'm gonna throw out there I'm sure that her father is not the only person that she said this to okay, so just wait for it All right, I'm a naughty naughty girl. I know daddy and I don't want to hurt you But won't you please hug me just as if I were a little kid again anything about that girl I'm betting she said that to the judge once or twice So and also to the light all who was oh when she was on the back of the horse probably Mexico and probably converse I'm a naughty naughty girl daddy. I know and I don't want to hurt you. Oh, yeah, that happened Bab's was accepted back into the Watson fold a single teenager once again.
All right, Mary twice on the track Mary twice by 18 Well, you said if second one didn't count it doesn't matter. She went through she's bang the judge She was married to Lydal. She got he threw on back of a horse They went down to Mexico got married and then she married a married guy married a married guy willingly Which didn't know he was married I assume but you know she married him willingly and now she's crying She's trying to get daddy to take her back on and he needed it. All right, let's see But Lawrence Converse got an appendicitis attack a few days later and died in surgery.
Oh, that's true Well, don't mean anything is wife and kids get all the shit. That's just a kind of a bummer for her Let's see the dark-haired beauty now for the love of Pete the dark-haired beauty spent yesterday making gingham aprons Some blue-checked and some pink stripe the LA Times reported about the newly reformed Barbara They are to be her uniform in the future. So I don't know if she's going to work at big boy or Like she was the like cracker barrel or something with her little gingham aprons. Give me a fucking break Oh, and I want to know is how she makes the newspapers Well, yeah, why is that news?
What the hell is that you know those news that this woman had a vagina was not afraid to use Well, that's like she was getting on stories everywhere Heidi Fleiss is home making soap This is gonna be her new adventure for the next hundred years. What the fuck ever not surprisingly this cozy domesticity did not last for long And she became bored after a couple of weeks and started hanging out hanging out the LA nightclubs smoking cigarettes and drinking gin Now seeing that's in her blue-gingham apron. That's a bad combination when you got a young lady smoking cigarettes and drinking gin Oh, yeah, so you know what happens when they do that they fornication is right. Well, you know, they dance Oh, it leads to fornication.
Oh, yeah, you know, there's people on our page to drink alcohol. Oh, the devil's brew. Yeah Not super okay, so Barbara threw herself into her work as well and in 1915 She was invited by Phoebe Hearst mother of magnate William Randolph Hearst to dance at the world's fair Oh, I would dance at the world's chair. It's work at the world's fair.
Do they still have world's fair? I think so. Yeah, I don't know. Yeah, but you know, I like it because you can get some really good Here we go.
She the great decisions continue. All right, so she becomes a ballroom dancer I'm gonna go ahead and put that in air quotes cuz taxi dancer. I guess I know oh, okay. Well, thanks for clearing that the fuck up Dance for a dime, you know, you generally they were paid a dime a guy who go to a bar club and they pay a dime and they Get dance with a track of young lady.
Okay, okay. How much of a blowjob cost allegedly? This wasn't it so she became she became a ballroom dancer Whatever traveling around the country with the renowned performer Robert Carvelle Sure and the ice cream cakes eat it a little soft shoe. Yeah in 1916.
She left Carvelle to marry husband number three. All right good I mean a dancer in checkforger again the good decisions continue Is that what he put on his business card? Probably dancer checkforger now ripest an hour pissed Yes by the name of Philip Ainsworth and now ripest is a wonderful reference that we have that you should really watch arrested development If you have not it's a funny as fucking show maybe the funniest show ever yeah, except for the last season that was on Netflix at blue The two married in 1916 and Ainsworth was smitten with his wife and bought her more gifts than he could actually afford well So he started forging checks and he got arrested no babes decided fuck that noise He's not gonna wait for him and filed for divorce from him in 1918 while and Ainsworth was in prison for forging checks to buy her shit Cigarettes Story to the press however telling him that Ainsworth died in Salt Lake City the result of a broken back from fucking probably Again, why is this news worthy with her husband? I know wasn't this about what is almost the great depression coming out here come on Well, well her husband was serving time in jail the divorce procedures still pending Barbara started having affairs with several men among whom one of which was Ernest Hemingway She met Naughty girl daddy you're down the Key West you're a dude all right, so she met Hemingway once I was working at a night club She met Hemingway while she was not a girl exactly in a nightclub named Harlow's all right well She where she danced opposite Rudolph Valentino, okay, so she went man.
It's a pretty really good love tail You've never been compared to real Valentino, so it says the two would remain friends until her death So I'm assuming that's Hemingway. She would remain friends with him. Yes. Yes.
He died a couple months after Barbara But she never married him shockingly it's a little bit friends very long then we died a couple months after Barbara died Oh after she did so lifelong friends, okay, I would assume yes, all right, so I'm trying to tell him in 1918 the news broke that Ainsworth was in fact not dead but instead serving time in prison Do they have a broken back? No well broke back mountain kind of really having some amazing the papers also reported the divorce when it became final This time barber's notoriety seemed to have become too much even for her she rejoined the vaudeville circuit to get out of LA Okay, she soon started a relationship of course she did with her dancing partner Ben Dilly. Oh, Ben, you know She seems to me now what we got here Timmy. Yes, well we got here and I'm just I can't study this woman But I'm just going anecdotally from her actions later on it seems that she got the overactive clitoral syndrome Well, tell us more about that Colonel because a lot of our listeners probably don't know what that is well There's certain women that are born with the overactive clitoral region.
What does it do? What it's always tingly, okay, it's always tingly and I always it's like it It's like when you got a little bug bite or something You always need to scratch. You know you shouldn't be scratching Yeah, and it seems that she had the tingly clitoral thing Uh-huh and she was always trying to get that little urge fixed Oh, because by this time I'm by my calculations. I've vagina got more miles than a delta frequent flyer Oh, Brandy your thoughts on this overactive clitoris situation he's stupid How about it's a legitimate machine get your Google out.
She's been laid more than linoleum. I mean really she has I mean Girl she's a naughty girl. She's a naughty. I mean did a did a documentary on on her vagina and that was called eight mile Timmy All right, so my god, we're doing vagina jokes, so now what but but the thing is what Well, this is hot air is when this room you know just an ugly hot whatever and some women have overactive tingly parts You know this devil you got head to some college when you use your three or four professors Did you suffer from an overactive and a lady and uh what yeah, and so it I mean it happens and you can't shame women for this Okay, I mean, it's just not that fault shut your whole now I control it you got an overactive galtor although he was well over 50 tingly Barbara fell for the man who she shared a passion for Lature and art D.
Lee was also addicted to alcoholic gambling and two were often seen drinking and dancing Barbara enjoyed the nightlife and loved a buddy She was not attractive well when she I don't know She soon tired of her new husband Ben when it became clear that his age prevented him from dancing to the wee hours of the morning Was Barbara's preference. She was notorious for her wild lifestyle and dated at least She dated at least seven other men during her short marriage to D. Lee. Oh here.
We go. I love this Barbara bridges Okay, she loved tonight life. She loved a boogie Barbara once had sex with her lover love while her husband was in the other room asleep Wrong with that Bab's and her lover were in the throes of passion when they had to stop long enough to close the door because her husband's loud snoring was making It difficult for the lovers to concentrate Colonel have you ever had the experience where you've been you're uh Romance has been interrupted by snoring All the time I have his romance usually starts with snoring. Yeah, I've never really had that problem because uh I focused to me.
Oh do you yeah? Whether whether it's a block of a nasal wake or not Chant's known for his laser focus. Yeah, it really is So Barbara decided it was time to leave the stage in her fourth husband Okay, so in 1921 Bab's filed for divorce changed her name to Barbara Lamar and proclaimed that she would now earn a living as a screenwriter Okay, sounds fair enough. How do you think he had the Lamar got called heady Lamar?
This came as a surprise to many of her friends as Barbara had never written a script before and she would barely read a script Not to be detoured right Barbara threw detoured detoured. That's what it says. I believe that would be deterred, but I'm telling I'm reading what's written Okay, then you ran it Barbara threw herself into screenwriting. I got a chicken on your desk You don't worry about my because I'm fucking this Ceramic Stress relieving you can squeeze the chicken Let's see her careers a screenwriter didn't really get off the ground Oh, and she'd only write a little more than six scripts for Fox studios and united artist her writing drew little attention But she was offered small film roles which kept her afloat financially That's good Barbara was persistent with her writing however her vivid imagination found an outlet and dreaming up dramatic scenarios And in January of 1920 her story the mother of his children led to a lucrative writing contract with 20th century Fox Sweet Barbara was finally a real success At this point in the story It's tempting to speculate what would have happened if Barbara had simply stayed a screenwriter a profession many co-writers felt was her true calling Maybe she would have had a happy ending but the magnetic beauty that had attracted so many men was not done working its spell In early 1921 Barbara was invited to visit the set of the mark of Zorro with a friend That was a good movie Mark is or oh, hmm star Douglas Fairbanks was so entranced by her allure that he arranged a screen test her dark exotic looks radiated off the Screen test was and she soon made her first movie Harriet and the Piper Oh, you got some pipe all right a bad girl daddy not you not too girl her You know what the Piper was I do her acting star really began to rise in 1921 when she made the blockbuster the three musketeers with Fairbanks Oh, and I said that was a pretty big Big time all right all right Colonel.
Let's tell us what happens next well To me over over her brief career five years Barbara would make 27 films in Hollywood New York in Europe All right now in Europe a lot of it I believe was that German hardcore porn, but we don't have any real record of that don't live there for sure yeah And movies such as the eternal city and the shooting of damn a grew she played the vamp On Netflix the vamp means you know vampire actually a dark Timmy a dark mysterious damn beauty who leads the film stoic hero to ruin I was just like for you to watch the Colonel when he reads he brings the words off the page Yeah, I do more than just go through the motions. He doesn't just read he lives this script I got I got the Tingley vocal. He's a Marlon Brando upon Yeah, I like to think something easy now. This is a quote from her.
I take lovers like roses by the dozen You know about that brandy my cheap nature. I never sleep more than two hours per night I have better things to do like scratch my itchy clitoris. I take lovers by the dozen I didn't say it Jesus this woman was just she was a mess to me she had an overactive clitoris It's nothing wrong with that. It's a medical condition medical is to recognize medical condition You can actually get ADA for it is a contagious ability really it sounds contagious The reason we'll accommodations for an overactive course brandy you do you do you have to give him locking Locking offices.
Yeah, give him some lice all spray room down. Yes, so Andy wipes Andy wipes So anyway friends and co-workers alike often commented on the intensity in which she spoke and her great capacity for She are living to me about thinking about that She loves life. She's a whore. She became a mainstay Hollywood cafes and nightclubs where her flair for drama dancing and oral sex skills Hmm, that's not in there.
Oh, okay. I just assumed you're reading things into it Well, Timmy, sometimes you have very good scripts, but like much like Brando. I like to you didn't method act I'm a method actor. Yeah, I see So anyway, what method is that?
The power of public relations to me. Yeah, she she learned about public relations refusing to be called a star much like myself I refuse the term star you will not label me Timmy I don't think I've ever heard anyone refer to you as a star You know and she leaked her love of writing poetry to the press and visiting orphanages where the orphanage what often read What the fuck is this?

Yes, the child's biological mother Interesting so the child she has with her is actually her own but she wanted publicity saying she adopted this child She went to bad publicity of having a child out with lot. So she said she adopted his child. Yeah I might do that with Logan Now somehow Barbara had hidden her pregnancy from the press Hmm, I know how she's in the paper every day. Yeah, I think she calls him Yeah, this boy kid You know he was born with dents in his head because this woman had more peck of one in now than we don't know that I was like come on man He came out with a concussion all kinds of things came out with the CTE the football players have so any She didn't have an overactive clitoris brandy doesn't know what had a head injury.
You can't you know, you can't fault her for that Randy So she so anyway, she didn't his pregnancy. Okay. Yeah, and then spirited this boy away to Texas only to find him weeks later To me, okay, and then although was never proven Marvin who would later change his name to the more swive and fit Sophisticated Don Gallery. Hmm.
Don gallery believed his real father was producer Paul Byrne whose own tragic demise would come during his marriage to the equally tragic Gene Harlow to me Gene Harlow Brandy. There's lots of this like seven separate this like every generation So too much later in Santa Barbara Barbara married husband number five red had acted Jack Dardy Hmm the end I can't wait to see when she's spraying her ankle during the filming of the drama for souls for sale Oh, she sprang her ankle Brandy. No, no for the pain studio doctors gave up all kinds of drugs including heroin They did not give me enough for my gallbladder Hey, that's my ankle every other day to the studio was important to keep filming and not let this cripple ass hold up production Well, sorry about that overactive clitoris. Well, hopefully the hair was loaded down a little bit But she was soon hopelessly addicted to a variety of drugs and she kept with a container of cocaine nicknamed Joy powder Dyeiting and began using the deadly combination of cocaine and heroin Now the escalating health crisis coincided with legal problems Dilly claimed that he was still legally her husband and one of the lawyers attempted to extort money from Barbara to hush up her extra marital Bonicading affairs to me Brandy.
What do you think about her? Pornication very brandy. Everybody's got to have hobbies now. She was called into court to mean it was reported that she was near collapse Oh, no when asked to read a complaint filed against her Barbara replied my eyes are too full of tears to read it No, I understand that I tried that in court one time He told me to wipe my eyes and get on with it.
Mm-hmm So the revelations about her life disclosed in court along with the decline in the popularity of the vamp That in the spring of 1924 her career was on downswing Okay, the media no doubt getting whiffs of the many problems in the law land began to turn on it to me Oh, no those people who were once her friends. See that's way goes brandy Now she's addicted to the hair when it's not overactive clitoris She can't bang them three at a time and they're turning on mm-hmm. So while filming the movie Sandra Barbara had another obstacle to overcome. What was that?
She gained 33 pounds. No that's just a lose weight when you're doing The cocaine and the heroin well she uh she decided she could lose these 33 pounds by just going on a cocaine and liquid diet to me And that's that sounds really smart. Yeah, this had a great impact on health and Barbara was exhausted nevertheless She kept acting fanatically and kept spending her time in nightclubs for the entire night The studio knew about a white drug problem and exhaustion but nevertheless used over the movie the white monkey She's a white monkey and it became a flop. I can't believe that sounds like an exciting thing Now by July 25 to me the jig was up.
Mm-hmm. She suffered a total nervous breakdown It was reported as a that was reported as a throat infection complicated by intestinal disorders. Mm-hmm. It sounds horrible Oh, yeah, she was confined for weeks.
Intestical disorders. It's a thing Okay, you know, I'm gonna have this new thing for other holidays, you know, you've heard of the festival of lights I'm doing testicles of lights for a girl. Yeah, perfect What you do you take those little lights, you know the blink on and off Christmas lights and you wrap them around your testicles and And if you wear thin pants people can see them enjoy them your thoughts on that brandy, dude. I use barbed wire to me So anyway, she you'd be more supportive of the testicle of lights.
Well, I like to barbed wire Okay, it keeps me it keeps me centered and grounded and I say and plus I don't want the Germans to invade my penis No man's name Because it's not a problem about this before but now that they can do penis transplants and my penis is never safe to me No, no, it's got a point. I mean, there's men walking around here on the board. I I'm gonna wake up in a bathtub for ice What my penis gone one day? Yeah, but it's not gonna be because somebody took it.
It's gonna be laying next day. Yeah Well, that could be too So anyway, she finished the film she finished this film now She was grave Leo when the studio commanded her to take part in the movie the girl from my martier in 1926 I was a classic brand name ex lover and friend of Paul Byrne begged Barbara not to finish the movie and take some rest instead But Barbara finished the film Spend her days mainly with the use of drugs and alcohol the occasional vibrator and the and the best boy and the key grip The best boy in the key grip after a while Barbara collapsed on the set and fell into a coma Where she continued her affair with the best boy in the kitchen. Yeah, she complained less to me So when she woke up she trusted a son to her good friend Zazu pits and recovered for a short while before the consumption was detected Timmy She's got the percolosis brandy Zazu Paul Byrne bought a house for Barbara where she would spend a dying days Barbara Barbara Lamar Timmy mm-hmm. She died January 30th 1926 the age of 29 the official cause of death was consumption as well as nephritis Timmy Oh my god, she was so young brandy She was 29 years old her son was adopted by Zazu pits and her husband John gallery and they changed his name to downgowery Okay, sadly Lamar was yet another star who's like burned out way too quickly many were taking with her and among her was Louis Ma'am Enameter that after all those years that in 1937 he changed the name of it of a new GM GM actress Edward Kiesler into Hadila Mar had a Lamar as a we also done a podcast as a homage Marge nice working to Barbara That morning 40,000 people passed by her open casket 23,000 of them had had intercourse with her at one time And a couple of them tried to pull head intercourse while passing by tried to throw them back Or try to throw them back on horse and make her to Mexico Exactly they wanted to see the still beautiful Barbara Barbara clean to a single red rose placed in a hand by a 12 year old fan Oh in the other hand was the penis of Louie B.
