Along the way, he shares past conversations with artists like Billy Ray, Joe Diffie, Randy Travis, and more while also looking back at The Real World, the Dream Team, the Los Angeles riots, and the parts of 1992 that stretched far beyond country music.

America loved Dolly because she "stayed out of politics"... or perhaps because she didn't. Let's take a closer look at the legacy of the Queen of Country Music.
Welcome to a deeply heartfelt episode of Late Boomers. We're Merry Elkins and Cathy Worthington, and today we gather to honor and remember the legendary Dolly Parton. For our 300th episode, we're sitting down for a very personal conversation, reflecting on the precious moments and memories that connected us to Dolly—through Cathy's late husband, Ken Kragen, who managed Kenny Rogers and helped shape some of the most iconic moments in country music.In this special tribute, we share never-before-told stories about Dolly's kindness, humor, and dazzling presence. We bring you inside the glitz of the CMA Awards, the warmth of the recording studio, and the laughter backstage. You'll hear what made Dolly so extraordinary not just as a superstar, but as a friend, a mentor, and a beloved family member to so many.Key TakeawaysDolly's True Nature: We recount how Dolly was every bit as genuine, loving, and quick-witted behind the scenes as she appeared in public.

She never stopped working, creating, or caring for those around her (16:40, 28:44).Dolly's Legacy of Kindness: Above all, Dolly's love for her family, her generosity, and her belief in giving someone your smile if they don't have one shines as her enduring legacy (24:35).Making Dreams Reality: Learn how Dolly's determination and savvy business sense overcame every obstacle—from bringing Dollywood alive to developing a Broadway show based on her life (25:00, 27:02).Thank you for joining us as we celebrate and remember Dolly Parton's incredible life, music, and spirit.

Bobby also revisits Vince Gill joining the Opry, Tracy Lawrence surviving a shooting before his debut album, and the first number ones that helped launch several major careers.

While there's no question Dolly Parton was popular, she had no intention of “going pop” throughout her 60-plus-year career. On the new Billboard Pop Shop Podcast, Katie & Keith are chatting about the relationship Parton — who died on Aug. 25 at age 80 — had with pop music, from her crossover hits to collaborating with her goddaughter Miley Cyrus. In a 1977 interview with Country Music magazine — the same year she released one of her poppiest hits, “Here You Come Again” — Parton addressed the genre question head-on. “I never considered the fact that I was going pop,” she said at the time. “I will go pop, as far as crossing over, sooner or later. But I will go there as me. I will go there with my own music, not by trying to be something different than I am. “If my music has to have a label, I will call it country, mainly because I am country,” she added. “You cannot leave what you are. But I really prefer to call it Dolly Parton music.” Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Dolly Parton has died at the age of 80, and in this episode of Mark and Pete we pay tribute to one of the most remarkable, successful and strangely universally loved entertainers of the modern age. Singer, songwriter, actress, businesswoman, philanthropist and owner of rather more rhinestones than most regional theatres could manage between them, Dolly Parton became something far bigger than a country music star.Born into poverty in rural Tennessee as one of 12 children, Dolly went from singing in church and appearing on local radio to becoming one of the biggest names in American music. She wrote thousands of songs, sold more than 100 million records worldwide and gave us classics including Jolene, 9 to 5, Coat of Many Colors and, of course, I Will Always Love You.And that last song alone has quite a story.Dolly wrote I Will Always Love You as a farewell to Porter Wagoner when she left his television show to pursue her own career. Elvis Presley later wanted to record it, but his manager demanded half the publishing rights. Dolly said no. Politely, naturally, but no nonetheless. Years later Whitney Houston recorded it and turned it into one of the biggest-selling singles of all time. Sometimes keeping hold of your copyright is quite a good idea.But Dolly Parton's legacy is about far more than music.Her Imagination Library has distributed hundreds of millions of free books to children around the world. She donated substantial sums to hospitals, disaster relief and medical research, including funding that contributed to work behind the Moderna Covid vaccine. Dollywood became one of Tennessee's biggest tourist attractions and major employers. She seems to have understood something many wealthy celebrities rather miss: having an enormous amount of money gives you the opportunity to do an enormous amount of good.So why did almost everybody like Dolly?That is perhaps the more interesting question.She was flamboyant without seeming vain, famous without appearing remote, deeply Christian without pretending to be perfect, and enormously successful while retaining the ability to make herself the butt of the joke. She once observed that it cost a lot of money to look this cheap. There are entire celebrity careers that could have been improved by that level of self-awareness.In this episode, Mark and Pete look back at Dolly Parton's extraordinary life, her Christian faith, her songwriting, her business instincts, her generosity, Dollywood, the Imagination Library and the extraordinary cultural reach of a woman who began life in a one-room cabin in Tennessee.A genuine American original.And yes, inevitably, we will always love her.
Bobby kicks off a new year-by-year series counting down the top 10 moments that defined country music in the ’90s, starting with 1990. In this episode, he looks back at Garth, Reba, Alan Jackson, Clint Black, The Highwaymen, The Chicks, Tim McGraw, Lorrie Morgan, Travis Tritt, and more — while also sharing conversations with some of the artists decades later about the songs, albums, and decisions that shaped the year. Plus, Bobby mixes in the movies, TV shows, and pop culture that made 1990 feel like the start of something huge.

The mayor of Olive Branch, Mississippi is not a very big Dolly Parton fan. Mayor Ken Adams is making national headlines after he refused to lower the American flag to honor the Queen of Country Music. Mayor Adams says that there’s no doubt Dolly brought joy to millions but he says to lower the red, white and blue would diminish the gesture’s significance. The mayor says the flag should only be lowered to honor military heroes, first responders and presidents. The reaction has been somewhat insane. The New York Post picked up on the story – and thousands of people are commenting on social media. Most overwhelmingly object to the mayor’s decision. President Trump and Mississippi Gov. Tate Reeves ordered that US and state flags be flown at half-staff for one week to honor Dolly. But under Home Rule, Mississippi allows cities the right to control their own internal affairs – which is why Mayor Adams thumbed his nose at President Trump and Gov. Reeves. Perhaps the mayor could rethink his bone-headed decision – and perhaps lower Old Glory. You know – extend an olive branch.See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
In this episode Chris and Christy talk about the "Queen of Country Music". They also test their knowledge about musical monikers. Also if anyone can explain what a diatom is that would be helpful. And Christy shares a Word of Wisdom for the day.
Christina Ho knows some people would describe audit as “painful,” so what if there was a way to make it “faster, better, and cheaper?” In this episode, Robert and Adam sit down with Christina Ho, former PCAOB Board Member and Chief Assurance Officer at Oath to discuss her new project using AI to improve the auditing process by testing 100% of transactions. Plus, learn about her vision for a “whole new category” of independent verification, and how the current view of audit as a compliance exercise is not producing the value it is intended to.

Welcome back to another edition of the Video Store Podcast. I'm back today with some lesser known film and TV appearances from the late, great Dolly Parton, Queen of Country Music, Patron Saint of the Smokies, and “the greatest hick whoever lived,” handpicked by someone who grew up in Dolly's neck of the woods. Dolly Parton embodies the best qualities of all the best people I grew up around at the foothills of the Great Smoky Mountains, and she never lost that kind, generous, salt of the earth quality when she made it big. Here are 4 Dolly deep cuts that you might have missed in her career that spanned across 8 decades. Straight Talk (1992)Pour one out for the radio gals here. Straight Talk focuses on Shirlee Kenyon, played by Dolly Parton, a small town girl who moves to Chicago for a fresh start. Shirlee by sheer accident is mistaken for a psychologist and ends up behind the mic of a call-in radio show. Turns out she's a natural, but is pressured to maintain her doctor persona by the radio station. When a reporter gets suspicious, Shirlee's career threatens to come crashing down around her. Watch Straight Talk to find out what happens! Make sure you watch all the end credits on this one!Hannah Montana Season 2 Episode 20 “I Will Always Loathe You”“I Will Always Loathe You” from Hannah Montana is the second of Dolly's four appearances as Miley Stewart's godmother in this Disney Channel original series. Fun fact: Dolly Parton is Miley Cyrus' real-life godmother. This episode is notable because Dolly gets to go head-to-head with comedy genius Vicki Lawrence, who plays Miley's Mamaw Ruthie. There's great comedy and great music in this episode of this family-friendly TV series. Joyful Noise (2012)Showcasing Dolly's musical prowess and ability to share the spotlight is her final theatrical film appearance, Joyful Noise. Starring alongside Queen Latifah, KeKe Palmer, Kris Kristofferson, Dexter Darden, Courtney B. Vance, Jesse L. Martin, and Angela Grovey, this film tells the story of two headstrong women, G. G. Sparrow (Dolly Parton) and Vi Rose Hill (Queen Latifah) who are at odds over the direction of their small town church choir. The choir is about to face off against some tough contenders in the upcoming national church choir competition. Can they work out their differences by the time they hit the big stage? You'll have to watch and find out! Designing Women Season 4 Episodes 13 & 14 “The First Day of the Last Decade of the Entire Twentieth Century Parts 1 & 2”This two-parter from Designing Women will make you laugh and cry. Charlene is close to her due date and nervous about motherhood. After having a dream featuring her “Guardian Movie Star” Dolly Parton, Charlene goes into labor. This episode of Designing Women is perhaps one of the series funniest, but also most poignant, especially now that Dolly has left us. Grab some tissues and your bestie for this one.If you want to hear more about Dolly's film work, check out my coverage of 9 to 5 and Steel Magnolias in my “Wonder Women” episode.

The Rickey Smiley Morning Show tackled a mix of major headlines, celebrity news, and cultural conversations, starting with the Trump administration’s decision to temporarily pause immigrant visa appointments worldwide while consular officers undergo additional training tied to screening applicants for possible reliance on public benefits. The show also highlighted actor and singer Tyrese Gibson’s arrival in Uganda, where he is helping launch the country’s “Explore Uganda Coffee Tourism” campaign, a nationwide effort designed to showcase Uganda’s coffee industry, cultural heritage, and tourism attractions through visits to the Source of the Nile, coffee farms, and the Africa Coffee Park. Recent reports note that Uganda is using high-profile international figures like Tyrese to boost global awareness of its coffee sector and tourism potential. The biggest emotional moment of the show centered on the passing of country music legend Dolly Parton at age 80, with the crew sharing personal memories and celebrating her impact on music, philanthropy, and culture. The conversation was amplified by tributes from stars including Beyoncé, who called Parton “the North Star” and praised her influence on generations of artists following their collaboration on Cowboy Carter. The show also explored Tyrese’s claim that his hit “How You Gonna Act Like That” was inspired by Kim Kardashian’s first marriage, while a lively debate broke out after 50 Cent declared that hip-hop is a “young man’s game,” prompting pushback from Rick Ross and others who argued that artists should continue creating as long as they remain connected to the culture and their fans. Along with Wellness Wednesday advice from Dr. MJ Collier, the morning was filled with heartfelt tributes, celebrity tea, and thought-provoking discussion about legacy, longevity, and cultural impact.

In this episode of the Pennsylvania Woodsman, Mitchell is joined by Pennsylvania outdoorsman and country music artist Robbie Jordan for a conversation about hunting traditions, life experiences, and finding purpose along the way. Robbie grew up in a military and law enforcement family where weekends were spent at hunting camp with his grandparents, and Pennsylvania rifle season was treated a lot like Christmas morning. He shares the lessons his grandfather passed down in the woods, how hunting remained a constant through his teenage years and military service, and why returning home to Pennsylvania after the Army gave him an entirely new appreciation for the traditions he grew up with. Robbie also tells the story of an unforgettable late-season flintlock hunt that ended without a filled tag, but with him discovering a black bear and three cubs denned beneath a fallen tree. The conversation eventually turns toward another major part of Robbie's life—country music. Robbie talks about leaving the Army, returning to blue-collar work, and eventually realizing that writing, singing, and performing music was something he wanted to seriously pursue. Mitchell and Robbie discuss the connection between great country music and real-life experience, how hunting and small-town Pennsylvania influence Robbie's songwriting, and why the best songs often come from stories and emotions people can recognize in their own lives. Robbie also shares the inspiration behind his debut single, "Redneck Town," his approach to blending country and rock influences, and his goals of someday balancing life on the road with plenty of time left for hunting and fishing. It's a conversation about family tradition, hard work, the outdoors, country music, and figuring out how the things you're passionate about fit into a larger purpose.

Dolly Parton, the country singer, songwriter, entertainer and entrepreneur whose rags-to-riches story, outsize persona and prodigious vision and talent placed her in a class by herself, died on Tuesday in Nashville. She was 80.The death was announced in a video posted on social media by her nephew, Bryan Seaver. No cause was provided. Concerns about Ms. Parton's health, which began last year as she postponed and later canceled a Las Vegas residency, grew to the point that she took to social media last fall to confirm that “I ain't dead yet.” In May, she said she had responded well to treatment after, as she put it, her immune and digestive systems “got all out of whack” in recent years.Ms. Parton's life, as depicted in autobiographical songs like “Coat of Many Colors” and “My Tennessee Mountain Home,” was the stuff of make-believe, from her hardscrabble beginnings in Appalachia to her glittering stardom in Nashville and beyond.The writer Chet Flippo likened her to the Big Rock Candy Mountain, the Depression-era symbol of abundance personified by Ms. Parton's voluptuous figure, rhinestone-studded stage costumes and blonde bouffant wigs. Her songs spoke to millions, confronting privation and loss even as they radiated possibility and hope.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.

Utah OC Kevin McGiven More NFL to college football transfers Dolly Parton passes away
On August 25, 2026, Dolly Parton — the singer, songwriter, actress, businesswoman, and philanthropist whose extraordinary gifts turned songs like Jolene, I Will Always Love You, and 9 to 5 into permanent parts of the American songbook — died at the age of 80. At the time of her death, Parton had spent more than six decades transforming herself from a girl raised in rural East Tennessee into the undisputed Queen of Country Music and one of the most beloved entertainers in the world. With her towering talent, irrepressible humor, rhinestone glamour, and unmistakable generosity of spirit, Dolly Parton became far more than a country music legend — she became a rare kind of cultural institution: an artist admired across generations, genres, and every corner of American life.
