Watching Ralph break down makes my heart ache
Same, kinda tears you up a little inside
Just think of his role in Red State.
It goes to show no matter how strong, funny, or wise you are, there is just some shit that happens that will make you break down and cry. The humanity from these guys in this video is palpable.
Right? Poor ralph!
SnooperDoodles same
I don't know why, but when I read that Adam West died, my first thought was "Ralph must be devastated". I am really sorry he lost his friend.
Marco Antonio Velázquez Ameneyro me to, you could just hear his love for the man every time he talks about him. What a friendship they must of had
Marco Antonio Velázquez Ameneyro I thought exactly the same thing
Marco Antonio Velázquez Ameneyro same here
Hearing Ralph break down on the podcast hurt me. Seeing it hurts even more. Adam West was so very loved and hope he Rests in peace.
I just want to say. I love your boot mug and R.I.P. Adam West.
You could tell it was so difficult for him to talk about it, especially when it had just happened. I give him a ton of credit for going on.
some days... you just can't get rid of a bomb... R.I.P Adam West
It pajns me all dhese people only know him æs Mayor Шest
He/s dhe real Бatman
I had him write that on my autograph to me.
Rest well Caped Crusader we will take it from here.
Rest in Peace old chum. Wherever you are may the shark repellent forever flow and Julie Newmar remain forever young!
amen brother, amen
I think if you want find genuine fan in the dictionary it would be Ralph...RIP Mr. West. No matter what anyone says you would be my one true batman. Goodbye old chum. You will one of the brightest and funny stars in heaven. Thank God for you Adam West, for giving us your sense humor, and giving us joy everytime you are on screen and off.
I grew up watching the Batman TV show but I didn't realize how many lives Adam West touched. Thanks for this. RIP.
Adam West, the only Batman who never needed say the words "I'm Batman." We fuckin' knew.
Ralph Garman's relationship with Adam West reminds me of the relationship that Bruce Wayne had with The Grey Ghost.
laparka1138 Animated Series!!! deep cut!
was just about to make the comment of how relevant that episode is to Adam west, both actors has been remembered for one role and kicked to the curb but both had someone who believed in them and made them see they were more than just a role, they both made something much bigger than they ever knew.
I wish I could give Ralph a hug. Adam West will forever be our Batman.
I will mourn my idol, Adam West for the rest of my days. Such a beautiful and benevolent human being who had a loving heart!
This made me legit cry. Kudos Ralph. Adam West really was a great man. RIP
RIP Adam West, lovely eulogy Ralph Garman, very touching x
I was shocked when I saw there was a Babble On podcast available for download this morning that was recorded on Saturday. All weekend I and a friend had wondered how Ralph would handle this on next week's podcast, thinking Adam West had passed away after the show was recorded. For it to have happened the day of the podcast and have Ralph continue with it really had to be tough.
Watching Ralph reminded me of my father's unexpected passing the day before the annual family gathering he enjoyed the most and the first for my baby daughter. We held the gathering anyway, knowing how much he loved it, but I could only make it so far before I had to go to the bathroom and completely lose all composure. Watching Ralph's pain brought it all back and brought tears to my eyes.
Remember those who have loved and you will never truly lose them.
Kenneth Harkin Well said mate. All the best to you
The world is a little more lonely now that you're gone... godspeed, Mr. Adam West. We'll never forget you.
I gotta respect Ralph, he really loved his friend.
as soon as I found out that Adam West died, the first person I thought about was Ralph Garman. I knew it would be hard on him.
R.I.P. Adam West
Yea, me too. :/
Brought me to tears in January 22. Nice to hear such kindness and love towards another human being.
Kevin Smith grabbing his shoulder when Ralph first started breaking up was really touching. It really reminded me of when my best friend committed suicide and his father hugged me at the funeral when we were both breaking down. Little signs of compassion and empathy can literally make a world of difference when you're grieving.
This is great, very emotional. Mr West was a great guy. In the early 80's I was at Autorama in Detroit. My dad had a car in display and I basically wandered Cobo Hall. Adam West and Burt Ward were doing photo's dressed on costume with the batmobile. I loved the Batman show, every day at 3pm after school. I watched them for hours as I sat on the side of the stage. At the end of the day, Burt Ward asked me if I was going to take a picture or just sit there. He was not been mean, just in a joking way. It told him I had no money, so he asked Bat Man to come over and see if it was okay to take a picture. I was in awe, Bat Man was there talking to me and took a picture with me. You made a young boy's dream come true Mr West(and Ward). RIP
Watching and hearing Ralph break down was so difficult, I ended up in tears. I'm so sorry for your loss, Ralph.
BEST eulogy for a celebrity EVER!
I'm literally crying here because it was so moving
Adam West was the Bright Knight who shined brightly and boldly and showed his successors how its done. RIP.
When I heard Adam West passed away the first person I thought of was Ralph. I remember how fondly he spoke of him personally and professionally, especially over Batman, I was very eager to see what he would say. Ralphs tribute is beautiful, my hope is that one day when I am gone someone thinks of me the same way Ralph thought of his hero and best friend. RIP Adam
Used to watch Batman 66 in the early 90's before going to school. RIP.
Thanks Ralph and Kevin! These tears rolling are from 5 yr old me who needed a beautiful eulogy to heal for the passing of my hero.
A beautiful eulogy for an amazing actor and friend to so many. R.I.P. Old chum. You will most definitely be missed.
I feel so sad for Ralph.
If death gives us anything - It's the gift of memories. Keep them and those who have passed will never be gone.
Rest Easy Mister West.
Ralph broke my heart here. It's painful knowing that Adam is gone but seeing how someone who has adored him his whole life react to his death is heartbreaking. I cried when Adam passed and this made me cry even more. Rest easy Old Chum.
God damn, this just breaks my heart.
Of all the countless tributes paid to Adam West, this has to be one of the most beautiful, honest and heartbreaking. It left me with tears in my eyes. Thanks guys, it's not the tribute that Mr West needs, but the one that he deserves. Rest in peace sir.
I'm completely bawling my eyes out. Seeing Ralph like that... It's hard not to feel his hurt. We'll all miss Adam West. He was a giant among men.
Had the privilege to meet him at an autograph session in Cincinnati in 1994, he was very polite, answered my questions, and truly seemed humble and down to earth. RIP Adam West.
..........................I never thought I'd ever want to give Ralph f**king Garman a hug.

Back in 1974 at age 4, I had the pleasure of meeting Adam West at an Auto show. As a little kid Batman was my idol. I didn't know as a kid that it was supposed to be a funny show, that was Batman to me. He was Batman. That day, I got a head shot signed to me by Adam West, it was my most my most prized possession. It is to this day in a scrap book. Adam West made me want to be a superhero in life. He was kind and gracious. I got meet my childhood hero. This podcast took me back to that moment. RIP to my favorite Batman.
Growing up in the 60's and 70's made Adam's passing a rare gut punch. He was that surrogate father figure in the afternoon that reinforced everything my natural dad was trying to tell me. It resonated with that man behind the mask. I can say without question, this eulogy was never more fitting and appropriate than to come from Ralph and Kevin who have ALWAYS proudly waved the flag of our fallen hero. Thanks for illustrating how real this loss was for all of us who grew up with this incredible treasure of a man. The Heavens are a safer place to be today and they are certainly smiling brighter. I look forward to the day when I can see him again along with my natural dad. What a reunion that will be.
Damn this was heavy. You really broke me up today. RIP Adam/batman.
beautiful, sweet and heartbreaking. Thank you Ralph. RIP Adam West, legend
I got the Batcave, Batmobile and all of the figures when I was a kid in the 70's. They were my favorite to play with for the longest time. The show was my favorite show. He was and still is my favorite hero largely because of Adam West! I'm so sad to see him leave us but it is a blessing to know that he is watching over us like a Batman signal in the sky. Thank you Adam for showing us how to be a hero in so many ways.
This moved me to tears and my heart breaks for Ralph.
Listening to this on my way to work this morning made me cry. Seeing this made me cry all over again. Goodbye Mr. West! You will be missed! :(
As a child I met Adam West, I was so nervous, I was shaking, he was cool, calm and nice, and so was Burt Ward. Lucky I got to meet them both in the same room.
Adam West is part of my oldest memories. He reminds me of my mom I lost 15 years ago and the moments I can remember watching the show back in the 80s with her. I think the hardest part of this is that it's Batman who died. Batman! And it makes us realize non of us will be here forever. RIP ADAM WEST.
This was a Wonderful Tribute guys! Haven't been so choked up in a long while. Adam West: Hero Material.
So much love here. Very rarely do we get to meet our heroes let alone befriend them.
Thank you Ralph and Kev for posting this on UA-cam for all to see and share in our grief after losing a true legend and inspiration for all the geeks in the world. 😭😭
when i was a young i would rush home from school to watch Batman it would would play one episode one day and the second one the next. When Adam West wrote his book Back to the Batcave I took my son who was just aabout 2 at the time to a book signing bought the book told Mr West how His humor and Honor use to help me when i was a boy and i wanted to share that joy with my son. He was very kind and he sighed my book and gave my son who was 2 a autographed photo which hangs on our wall even to this day. Thank Mr West for the joy you brought us
You were such a big part of so many of our childhood lives showing us the good will always triumph over evil RIP Adam West aka Batman
57 tomorrow Grew up watching THE ONLY BATMAN Adam West in Dallas my Son is now 26 will be 27 in a couple months he loves Batman and we got to go see Adam and Burt in Dallas but my Sons Hero is Kevin Smith and
Ralph Garman is a household name. I just watched these videos tonight and realized how special it was to go
not only to see Adam and Burt and to go see Kevin Smith in Dallas at the Theater
they captured Oswald in..
Kevin my Son Christian feels the way Ralph does about Adam about you man !
I hope you are doing well and know how much FANS love and respect you right now also.
These videos were so heartfelt and well done and you guys are Huge Men with the biggest hearts
so I see why Son#1 loves you two so much... Really well done and I needed to cry too so much crap has happened
in the past 20 years it was nice to see this tonight and I saved it cause I know my Son will appreciate it.
Kevin much love from Texas to you so you know my Son loves you just as strong as Ralph Loves Adam
only we have not met yet... That would make my kids day to meet you and hear from you that your doing well....
Hit that young man up he loves film making and is working 3 jobs even working at the theater..
He needs to be working with you next film not stuck here in this Texas town unless of course you filmed here...
HMMMM Kevin Smith comes to Texas have you filmed here yet ? Jay and Silent Bob go to Texas ?
Ill just leave the film making to you and Son #1 but you should come to Texas and see how cowboys twist....
Kevin if you read this will you reach out and speak to my Son ? It would make his entire year his name is Christian Frey and he follows you. Im his Dad he wont ever expect that and it would be a huge lift to him to hear from his Hero..
That would be you Kevin Smith...

And to hear your doing ok ... it would brighten his day. Hope to see you again soon in Dallas please
say hello to Ralph and Jay from the Frey's in Texas I just became a huge Ralph Garman fan !
Thank you so much for all these kind words for the most under rated true super hero's in our life time. He created the Batman that we grew to know as Batman and anyone else would have fallen short. It's all so true what you have said this day. When I met Adam in the early 80's, I was so frozen that I couldn't find the wits to ask him so many questions that I wanted to ask him and he was so kind and so humble to me. My 6 your old son and I were to meet him at a sceduled appearance in Connecticut this August and I would then tell him how much he meant to me.
Adam West was the first batman for people all over the world. A spaniard here trully touched by Ralph's stories, also reminiscing of the good old times watching those big KAPOW! on the screen. you will be missed
I don't think I can watch this again I was crying my eyes out watching The Babylon show this morning and the worst part about it is I'm driving a truck at the same time
I was there for this. It was so emotional and amazing. There is no better way to celebrate Adam's life than with you two and especially Ralph, who was such a great friend to Adam. Thank you both so much for sharing!
Engines to power; Turbines to Speed: God better be ready to Move Out...
Deepest Condolences.
A touching eulogy. As a kid I watched the Batman re-runs in the late 80s-early 90s, he was the ultimate hero to watch, he may not be as dark, gritty and cool looking like the great Keaton but you can't deny he gave a big and important spark in pop culture. R.I.P. Adam.
True story, My daughter and I met Adam West and Burt Ward last year at the Awesome Con in D.C. We dressed up as Barf and Dark Helmet from the Spaceballs movie. When we walked in Burt said "OMG its the Spaceballs!" Adams West looked at us and said "I would run right now if I could!" His sense of humor was soooo impressive, he was cutting one liners the entire time when meeting the fans. Great man and he will be sorely missed!
I just watched this again. A beautiful and moving tribute Ralph. All the best!
I went through 3 stages of Adam West's Batman.
The first was when I was a little kid and we watched Batman on Saturday mornings, and afterwards "climbed" up the corridor and played fights, shouting "Kapow" and "Whap". He was a hero.
Then when I grew older I hated the camp nature of the show and began to resent it, but still loved West's presence and starure.
Then when I was an adult I happened to watch an episode of the show after many years, and suddenly I got the joke. It was genius comedy, and Adam West's delivery and potrayal was full of subtlety and masterful timing, irony and satire. It was an eye opener of how unique his performance was.
10 people are cronies of The Joker, as of writing this comment. No other reason to dislike this amazing tribute to the man, the myth, the legend. RIP Adam West.
As a 90s kid I didn't grew up on Adam West (except from Family Guy, but I didn't know who he was at that point). The older I got the nerdier I became. And at one point finally I got to watch his Batman, and to my surprise I really enjoyed it and still do. I recently rewatched The Batman 66 movie and it still holds up. Everyone should give it a watch in honor of The Bright Knight, a huge caldron of win, rest in piece Adam
I know it's been nearly a year since he passed but I don't care. I have a very fond memory of me and my cousin Michael sitting in front of the tv watching the famous shark repellent scene. The joy on our faces from that moment as well as everything he did was something that I nothing but gratitude. I tell people no matter what happens, Adam west will always be my Batman, and when I heard he passed nearly a year ago it broke me. Thank you Adam, I can't wait to see you in heaven old chum. RIP
Thank you for this, as soon as I heard that my hero had passed I went looking for someone to help me with my grief. I cried too! He was "my Batman" as well. My first teacher, was a Capped Crusader. As I sat sad and heartbroken on Saturday morning , my Recent Amazon purchase of the 1966 Die cast Batmobile arrived. Favorite thing, Favorite Hero, seems fitting. I'm happy to have enjoyed his performances, and to have had them impact my life,and will always remember that! "Fare well old chum...."
After years of seeing and hearing Kevin cry, still nothing prepared me for Ralph. Eloquence on both your parts, eloquence for a lovely man who changed yours and my life for the better. Mr. West will forever be a legend and you guys did right by him, thank you both.
nice eulogy, well done Ralph. Adam West's comic timing was excellent, Hollywood never capitalised on it as best it could, he could have and should have had a career comparable to Leslie Nielson's
I knew that watching this would be hard, and watching Ralph talk about his Hero and such a wonderful man, it just broke me. RIP Adam, thank you for everything
When I heard the news Saturday morning, my first thought was that I hoped Ralph would be okay. I knew that, when the day came, he'd give the greatest and most honorable eulogy for the man that there could be, and I stand here not at all disappointed. RIP Adam West and beautiful job to Ralph for pulling through it to honor him as he deserved. You did well, old chum.
Like for any longtime fan of Hollywood Babble On, it's been very clear to me just how much Adam West meant to Ralph both as an idol and as a friend. I knew he would take his death very hard, and watching this absolutely tore me to pieces. All the love in the world to him for this beautiful tribute to someone he obviously cared about very deeply.
You crying for losing Adam West just breaks my heart Ralph. The news of his passing just shook me to my core. R.I.P Batman
Ralph Garman did the world a great service in getting Mr West that star. Thank-you sir.
so honored to have met Adam in my lifetime rest in peace sir
Breaking my heart watching this :( Ralph, Kevin said it and I imagine many others have too. Adam will forever love and cherish all that you did for him as a fan and more importantly a friend.
Thank you @RalphGarman for sharing what Mr. West meant to you. It was heartbreaking and heartwarming all at once.
I never finished unlocking Adam West in Lego Batman 3. Time to correct that oversight. Rest in piece, Bright Knight, your will not be forgotten.
For me growing up in the 2000's I used to watch many cartoons religiously one of which featured Adam, Fairly odd parents, he was CatMan for me and always will. But not only in my early childhood was he in my life, but also as a tween/teenager when I finally had an interest in Family Guy, where I always wished to have Mayor Adam West as my own mayor. I loved his work and now have come to actually realized how much he has shaped my own life and personality.
RIP Adam West.
com' on who didn't love Adam as the Mayor, on the family guy....R.I.P
Mayor West. He as the Mayor
MrBrklyn212UndergroundHipHop just for clarity's sake, he was the mayor
What? Thats Adam We as the Mayor.
I don't know why, but ive coming back to this video from time to time.
my nephews are 5 and 7. Adam's Batman is their favorite show. followed closely by the incredible hulk. Adam West is an inspiration to generations.
Great Tribute From Ralph and Kevin. I grew up in a similar situation to Kevin with a few channels and re-runs for the 60's show and it was a treasure to see/hear Adam back again when he was on Family Guy. RIP Adam West.
When I first heard the news of Mr. West passing I thought of you Ralph... I'm really sorry for your loss.. you can see he really meant a lot to you. Honor his life by keeping on babbling on brother.... Garmy Strong
I'm very grateful for Adam West.He really blessed this world and my childhood
That was fucking beautiful man. Almost started crying while listening to the audio version, and i havent seen a single episode of the original Batman show. One can only wish to have a friendship like yours Ralph. R.I.P. Adam West.
This is the most touching thing I've seen yet - from a man who truly loved Adam West not just as a performer, but as a good friend. Such a good friend that he appears to be largely the one responsible for getting the ball rolling on getting Adam West his own star on Hollywood Blvd. Can you imagine Adam West not having that star? I was GOBSMACKED that it almost didn't happen! UNACCEPTABLE indeed!
I'm very VERY glad Adam West got to have fun - and work - into his later years. (His turn as the Mayor of Quahog in Family Guy is side-splittingly hilarious!)
And his good-nature and ability to be a good sport about everything related to the Bat franchise just makes him all the sweeter a treasure I'm sad we no longer have.
Rest in Peace, Bright Knight.
And THANK YOU Ralph Garman for being such a good friend to him. I'm sure YOU made HIS life better as much as he made yours better.
Two years on and this still hits right in the feels.
I like to feel that i have a strong sense of right and wrong,part of that is due to my parents but a big part of that is my influence from superheros,and Adam West was my first introduction to that wonderful world. I loved that show as a kid and feel honored to have met him on a couple of occasions,R.I.P. good sir.
Adam West's death was a tough one. He touched and influenced so many young lives during the "Batman" run...no one could have done it better. This was a GOOD man...
I didn't grow up on West's Batman, it was before my time. But I will always have the utmost respect for Adam for bringing Batman out of the pages of comic books and onto the screen for the first time. If not for him, we might not have gotten Batman: The Animated Series, or we might not have gotten it when we did, and that's the Batman I did grow up on. Interestingly, the episode that included Adam West, Beware the Grey Ghost, has always been my favorite. Like Ralph and Kevin, Batman was the single biggest influence for young me of who and how to be, what to and not to do. So thank you Adam. Thank you for what you did for countless people. And I include myself among them. Rest in peace, Caped Crusader.
This was going to be a hard show whether it was the same day or a week later. I have nothing but respect for Ralph & Kevin in how they paid tribute to Adam West and sharing how important this man was to them as well as to millions of other fans around the world. Amazing job guys but I dare anyone to not shed a tear either.
I love the episodes where they talk about their friends or colleagues or just people they're fans of who've passed away. Good for a nice, genuine cry. So much love in all of these.
R.I.P Adam West. You were Batman for me and then you became Mayor West for my cousin. You were truly one for the ages. And fans like myself will greatly miss you.
My heart was breaking listening to Ralph talk about Adam West. RIP Bright Knight ❤️
Who disliked this? Seriously??
Ryoji Kitomi jackasses that's who
Ryoji Kitomi Someone whose soul is rotting.
Dapper Skeleton They have to have a soul in the first place in order for it to rot, in my opinion.
probably those dastardly fiends, old chum.
Penguin, Joker, The Riddler, Catwoman...
Rest in Peace Mr West 😔 you'll always be THE Batman x and God bless Ralph cause I watched that documentary last year and was so pleased when I saw Adam West got his star on Hollywood Boulevard, you are a legend x
Dear Ralph, you are a good friend. Your pain is true and Adam West will be missed. I had a tough time with this one. He was my Batman too.
West on West, MAN, that is DESTINED to become a classic! And true, weeping Ralph is one sad thing to witness :(
That was so raw. Rest in peace, Adam West. You will be eternally missed.
That was beautiful, and a fitting tribute to a cool human being. A man who gloried in the silliness of being Peter Griffin's mayor, of being "Adam WE" when his desk nameplate got damaged. You know this was a guy who liked to laugh. And I'm old enough to have grown up with the TV show in its first iteration on TV. RIP a lovely dude of whom NOBODY said a bad word.
thank you for sharing this, Ralph. We love you. RIP Adam West, a great actor and a beautiful man. also one of the greatest on-screen portrayals of Batman (which they're are only like 3 good cinematic Batman portrayals). He will be greatly missed.
Thank you! MR. West for all the joy you brought us.
RIP Adam West. Having influenced so many people to become decent human beings and laugh is a worthy legacy. Thank you for everything!
That was so sad.
