Episode Title: When Joan Kissed Barbra

Air Date: 2020-10-14

Overview:

As Joan Rivers told it, before she and Barbra Streisand were famous, they were in an off-Broadway play together. Failing as a club comic and returning to more artistic pursuits, Rivers demanded she be cast in the production without even reading the script. The result: the role she was given called for a love scene between herself and Streisand.
