Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.The past several days have been extraordinary for Dolly Parton. The biggest headline is that she was honored with the Jean Hersholt Humanitarian Award at the 2025 Governors Awards, making this her very first Oscar after decades of contributions to music, film, and especially to charity. She accepted the honor by heartfelt video message from her home in Nashville, sharing gratitude and promising to “dream up new ways to help lift people up.” The award was presented by her friend Lily Tomlin, and Dolly wore a sparkling gold dress in the video that had social media buzzing, with People Magazine posting the clip and calling her “Star of the Show.” The Academy's award recognized her philanthropic work including the Dollywood Foundation and the Imagination Library, with major media like E! News and the Oscars' own channels highlighting her moving acceptance as a milestone in her legendary career.Her appearance at the Governors Awards was especially meaningful because it was her first major public statement since health rumors began swirling in October. Speculation caught fire when her sister Freida posted that she'd been “up all night praying,” which led some fans to fear the worst. Dolly herself took to Instagram to shut down reports and, with her trademark humor, told everyone “I ain't dead yet,” even as she acknowledged she'd postponed her Las Vegas residency to prioritize recovery from health issues, reportedly due to kidney stones according to People Magazine and confirmed by her manager. Parton's representatives say she's “getting better every day,” resting at home, and already decorating for the holidays. She has continued light work remotely and made it clear she is not retiring, only slowing down briefly as doctors advised.Fans continued to flood her posts with support, especially after she addressed the rumors and gave assurance she'll be ready for “more big adventures.” In a new interview with People, she promoted her latest memoir, Star of the Show: My Life on Stage, reflecting on her six decades of hits and declaring, “I feel like I'm just getting started.” Meanwhile, “Threads: My Songs in Symphony,” an innovative concert series featuring Dolly's voice and storytelling on screen, played to sold-out audiences with orchestral arrangements.To summarize, in a single whirlwind week, Dolly Parton won an Oscar for humanitarianism, went viral for her reassuring spirit, quieted speculation about her health, promoted her new book, and advanced her legacy project with a major concert event. Accordingly, outlets like Entertainment Now and People are calling this a defining chapter in her ongoing career renaissance, showing once again that after nearly 80 years, Dolly remains an unstoppable cultural force.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Seems like every day another performer has said the wrong thing or done the wrong thing. And if we like them, that's just more spice in the sauce. And if we don't, we just hate them even more. But the controversy wheel just keeps on spinning, regardless of how you feel. It could be a manufactured scandal, like a diss track, or something out of control, like an act of violence. Sometimes it's hard to know if it was planned or not - you know, like when one singer pulls the top off another singer during the Super Bowl halftime show. On this week's episode of "How We Heard It," your hosts spin through some of the biggest and some of the strangest controversies ignited by musicians, either by design or by accident. They poke through scandals from recent years and look back at some from decades ago to see how they hold up now. For example, most of Madonna's shenanigans from the 1980s seem rather tame by today's standards. But on the flipside, you might be surprised (and disappointed) to learn how many of your favorite singers from classic rock days were routinely sleeping with underage fans ... and how it generated relatively little concern back then. Your hosts also look at the current social environment and how performers are forced into controversy against their will and how stars are no longer allowed to be neutral about issues. This is why Taylor Swift couldn't be another Dolly Parton, even if she tried. (Why is everybody always mad about everything all the time?)  So join us and find out if your favorite singers have been naughty or nice ... and if it changes how you feel about them, for better or worse.

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.It has been a whirlwind few days in the world of Dolly Parton, with headlines buzzing about her creative projects, business moves, and signature candor. The most significant and biographically weighty news is the release of her new memoir, Star of the Show: My Life on Stage. Out as of November 12, this final installment in her trilogy is a sweeping reflection on her seven decades as a performer—from the Tennessee mountains to the global stage. As described by Penguin Random House and echoed by Entertainment Weekly, the memoir is part love letter to her fans, part career retrospective, and brims with rich stories of working with legends like Porter Wagoner, Kenny Rogers, and Emmylou Harris. On social media, Parton thanked fans, noting that her career “has been a love affair with the stage and the wonderful people who made it all possible.”With the holiday season approaching, she's in public view both on and off stage. The new North American tour of Dolly Parton's Smoky Mountain Christmas Carol—a Depression-era retelling of Dickens set in East Tennessee, with music and lyrics by Dolly herself—has just opened its 2025–2026 Broadway Series run. The Carson Center and regional venues highlight the show's uplifting family-friendly spirit and appalachian touches. While Dolly herself does not appear, her songwriting is at the heart of the production.Also capturing attention, the innovative Threads: My Songs in Symphony experience marks a new chapter in how fans see and hear her work. Rolling out in Raleigh, Oklahoma City, and other cities this November, this multimedia symphonic celebration combines new orchestral arrangements, archival footage, and Dolly's own narration on screen. She describes it as the musical tapestry of her life. Audiences are especially curious about its previews of unreleased pieces from her forthcoming Broadway musical.Businesswise, Dolly Parton's collaboration with Kendra Scott just launched its third Change It! jewelry collection, inspired by her song from 9 to 5: The Musical. Harper's Bazaar reports the holiday line is all about creative reinvention, reflecting her ongoing influence on style and self-empowerment. Recent press also noted that her business empire continues to thrive through merchandise, fragrances, books, and partnerships with brands like Duncan Hines.Finally, on the lighter side: her early-rising habits—getting up at 3 a.m.—made the rounds courtesy of American Songwriter, and fan events such as Knights of the Round (Turn)Table in Long Beach honored her classic “Jolene” with an evening of musical storytelling. As for rumors, Dolly herself addressed health speculation last month, assuring fans in a personal video that she's fine, taking some time off to care for her husband and focus on work.Cultural columnists are almost unanimous: at 79, Dolly Parton remains as vital and generative as ever, weaving new threads for future generations and still finding ways to say, “I ain't got time to get old.”Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton has dominated headlines over the past several days, with news ranging from serious health updates to major cultural and business milestones. According to RadarOnline, Dolly recently canceled her six-show Las Vegas residency and pushed the dates back to September 2026 after doctors insisted she undergo medical procedures for a potentially dangerous health issue. She made a public statement to fans confirming the health challenges and her need for procedures, while friends and fellow stars like Reba McEntire and Kelly Clarkson have rallied to support her through these hard times. Behind the scenes, there is real concern among her inner circle, with insiders saying Dolly has never seemed this vulnerable, as she recuperates at her Nashville home and faces ongoing struggles with kidney stones.Despite these worries, Dolly remains very much present in the public sphere. She is in the midst of a multimedia celebration of her life and music, with her Threads My Songs in Symphony orchestral concert series selling out in cities like Oklahoma City and Raleigh, featuring Dolly onscreen sharing personal and musical stories. Dolly herself describes this project as a special way to share the story of her life through the “threads” of her songs, and these concerts have featured never-before-heard numbers from her upcoming Broadway musical, which she revealed continues to move her deeply during recent interviews with Entertainment Tonight. She spoke candidly about her late husband Carl Dean, whose passing earlier this year continues to be a source of emotional upheaval for her, especially as she watches him portrayed on stage in the new musical Dolly A True Original Musical, which has drawn critical attention for its honest storytelling and heartfelt performances.Meanwhile, Dolly's business empire continues to flourish. According to Happy Mag, her net worth stands at $650 million in 2025 thanks to smart business ventures, her Dollywood resort, her frozen foods line, philanthropy, and catalog ownership. Her upcoming memoir Star of the Show launches this week, filled with personal revelations about sacrifice, childlessness, and the demands of stardom—topics she has explored in depth on her latest media blitz. Simultaneously, her musical 9 to 5 and Smoky Mountain Christmas Carol are running in regional theaters, ensuring her music and narrative stay woven through American culture.In social media news, The New Daily and others have pointed out her viral resurgence as fans jump on her TikTok trends, especially with her older song “What's Up” gaining huge traction. Headlines highlight that while her health is fragile, her legacy and influence—both in the arts and business—show no sign of fading. Finally, on the philanthropic and public appearance front, Dolly is set to headline the Salvation Army's national Red Kettle Kickoff performance at the Dallas Cowboys' Thanksgiving Day game, underscoring her enduring appeal and commitment to public service even amidst her personal trials.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas is a 1982 musical comedy film based on the stage musical of the same name. Directed by Colin Higgins, it followed the "Chicken Ranch" brothel located in Lanville County, widely accepted and traditionally beloved by the small town of Gilbert, but faced with closure upon its discovery by a TV morality watchdog. The cast featured Dolly Parton, Burt Reynolds, Dom DeLuise, Jim Nabors, and the singularity-altering, reality-warping presence otherwise known as Charles Durning. It was a major box office hit upon its release, and an Academy Award nomination for Durning, despite only being in the film for one scene.On this episode of Hell Is A Musical, Lilz and Scott are joined by return guest, burlesque artist, and declared Dolly Parton expert Jenna Sokalski for a viewing of The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas, and take in the sights, sounds, and oddly kitschy and polished vibes for a movie about a brothel.

This long-term ambition assures her influence on Tennessee's economic and cultural landscape will only grow.On the public appearance front, it's been a busy week. The Oklahoma City Philharmonic is currently hosting Dolly Parton's Threads: My Songs in Symphony, a multimedia orchestral concert blending new symphonic arrangements of her hits with video appearances from Parton herself, sharing personal stories about the dreams that shaped her music. According to OKC FOX and the Oklahoma City Philharmonic, the format is uniquely intimate: audiences experience the songs alongside Dolly's own reflections, amplifying both nostalgia and emotional resonance.Yahoo and AOL reported that, following last month's concerns about her health including a cancelled Las Vegas residency due to kidney stones, Parton surfaced on Instagram with trademark humor, telling fans she “ain't dead yet”—swiftly ending the rumor mill. Social media was further abuzz thanks to her viral TikTok entry into the “What's Up?” trend, where she playfully performed the 4 Non Blondes anthem, injecting her spirit into Gen Z feeds according to Holler Country.Billboard and Effingham Radio confirm she's being honored as part of the Grand Ole Opry's centennial “Opry 100: Country's Greatest Songs” album and commemorative events, including a spotlight on her 2007 rendition of “I Will Always Love You” for Porter Wagoner. This deepens her connection to country heritage at a moment the genre reflects on its pillars.Meanwhile, Broadway fans are anticipating the regional premiere of her musical “9 to 5” and the national tour of her Smoky Mountain Christmas Carol, as reported by Interlochen and The Carson Center, ensuring her storytelling voice remains alive on stage this holiday season.Forbes reiterates Dolly's business empire is thriving, with Dollywood, royalties, cake mixes and pet products fueling her $450 million net worth, while her philanthropy and literacy efforts stay near the front of her public profile.Every note, new venture, and surprise social media cameo from Dolly this week adds to a tapestry that refuses to fray with time. Whether she's masterminding mountain amusements, opening a one-of-a-kind hotel, or setting TikTok aflame, Dolly Parton continues to write new headlines—never resting on old glory, and never out of sight of the public heart.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

This week at camp, we're recapping our wild tour stops through Nashville, Kansas City, and Chicago. Yes, a honky-tonk woman in an arm sling was hitting on us at the Nashville Dolly Parton rooftop bar. Then we cover the riveting story of a man who spent months convincing Costco to give him their iconic $1.50 hot dog sign, and the Vatican finally returning Indigenous artifacts to Canada. Naturally we spiral into a series of passionate rants about everything from being forced to “pre-save” albums that aren't even out yet and sandwich shops drowning their food in mayo. UGH! (though Jonathan approves of the mayo-forward recipes lol) We also yearn for the golden age of DVDs with alternate endings, confess our love for reading smut in public, and weigh in on Hayley Williams' new album drop for Ego Death. Plus a little Zara Larsson appreciation to round things out.This episode was mixed and edited by Kevin Betts.Get your tickets to see Zachariah Porter's new Live Comedy Tour!Want BONUS CONTENT?

In this episode of Identified, host Nabil Ayers is joined by Jad Abumrad—artist, musician, journalist, and creator of Radiolab, Dolly Parton’s America, More Perfect, and Fela Kuti: Fear No Man—for a conversation about grief, family history, and what it means to belong to a culture you weren’t fully given.Jad shares stories from his Lebanese family: a great-grandmother whose ring he lost in the sea, a grandfather who buried his mother on the side of the road at age 10, and a father who narrowly survived a civil war and brought his entire extended family to Tennessee. But it’s only in recent years that Jad began to ask the deeper questions: What actually happened in Lebanon? Why did his family never talk about it? And what does it mean to claim a cultural identity that was never fully passed down?We also talk about: Growing up Arab in the U.S. during the Iran hostage crisis and 9/11 His early reporting in Lebanon and how it helped shape his voice The grief that shaped his family, and the one loss that reshuffled everything Choosing to raise kids with a sense of inherited identity—even when you didn’t grow up with one yourself Jad’s story is a moving reminder that family is built not just on what we’re given—but also on what we ask, uncover, and pass forward.

Dolly Parton BioSnap a weekly updated Biography.Dolly Parton remains a headline force as November 2025 unfolds with several major developments. One story rocketing across both mainstream outlets and social media was Dolly's unexpected health scare, which began when her sister Freida Parton posted on Facebook asking fans to join her in prayer for Dolly who, it was stated, “hasn't been feeling her best lately.” This triggered a wave of concern and speculation until Dolly herself posted a reassuring video on Instagram declaring, “I ain't dead yet!” and telling fans she's working hard between treatments, having let her health slip after husband Carl Dean's passing earlier this year. Dolly insists her issues are manageable, though she did postpone some public appearances and Las Vegas concert dates to focus on treatment and recovery. She emphasized, “I'm not ready to die yet. I don't think God is through with me and I ain't done working.” This candid approach, amplified by outlets like AOL and USA Today, has put rumors to bed for now, though some sources such as RadarOnline continue to dwell on unconfirmed kidney issues and canceled appearances.On the business front, Dolly is full throttle with hospitality and tourism expansion. According to multiple outlets including Blooloop, People, and KIIM-FM, she has just opened reservations for her much-touted SongTeller Hotel in Nashville, set for a June 2026 grand opening. Embracing her trademark Southern style, the hotel features 245 rooms and themed music venues Jolene's and Dolly's Live. Perhaps the biggest draw will be the adjoining Life of Many Colors Museum on the third floor, a sprawling immersive exhibition of Dolly's career, which she promises will be the “largest exhibit celebrating her life anywhere to date.” Both the hotel and museum are being touted as Dolly's “love letter to the city of Nashville,” with advance museum tickets selling briskly according to several reports.Dollywood also remains in the spotlight as Dolly and her partners at Herschend Family Entertainment reveal ambitious plans for five resorts and a possible expansion toward year-round operation by 2050, outlined in Knoxville News Sentinel. Four hundred acres are already reserved for new lodging, with themes and activities all referencing moments from Dolly's life, ensuring a lasting connection for visitors and the next generation of fans.On the cultural and performance circuit, Dolly's multimedia project Threads: My Songs in Symphony is set for a North Carolina Symphony premiere later this month, with Parton appearing on screen to narrate her story and introduce new orchestral versions of hits such as Jolene and I Will Always Love You. Meanwhile, her hit-packed musical 9 to 5 will be staged at Interlochen Arts Academy on November 16th, highlighting her enduring influence on stage and screen.On social media, Dolly's TikTok account exploded once more when she reposted her previously recorded stripped-down cover of What's Up with original songwriter Linda Perry, cleverly capitalizing on the viral “What's Up Beez in the Trap” mashup phenomena. Fans and celebrities are pouring on praise: “Dolly is my President,” reads one TikTok comment, reinforcing her unbeatable status as a cross-generational icon.In publishing, Dolly is the subject of a new biography, Ain't Nobody's Fool: The Life and Times of Dolly Parton, scheduled for December 30, 2025, and a coffee table book Star of the Show: My Life on Stage arriving November 11.Rounding things out, Pirates Voyage and other Parton-affiliated attractions are set for holiday themed shows and special events—further cementing Dolly's status not only as a star but as a multi-industry mogul who refuses to slow down, despite the recent spate of health rumors. For now, the queen of country looks ready for her next act.Get the best deals https://amzn.to/3ODvOtaThis content was created in partnership and with the help of Artificial Intelligence AI

Subscribe to ⁠Fela Kuti: Fear No Man⁠. In a world that's on fire, what is the role of art? What can music actually…do? Can a song save a life? Change a law? Topple a president? Get you killed? In Fela Kuti: Fear No Man, Jad Abumrad—creator of Radiolab, More Perfect, and Dolly Parton's America—tells the story of one of the great political awakenings in music: how a classically trained 'colonial boy' traveled to America, in search of Africa, only to return to Nigeria and transform his sound into a battering ram against the state—creating a new musical language of resistance called Afrobeat. For years, the world's biggest stars made pilgrimages to Nigeria to experience Fela's Shrine, the epicenter of his musical revolution. But when the mix of art and activism got too hot, the state pulled out its guns, and literally opened fire. Fela Kuti: Fear No Man is an uncategorizable mix of oral history, musicology, deep dive journalism, and cutting edge sound design that takes listeners deep inside Fela's life, music, and legacy.

This week on the New Music Business podcast, Ari sits down with Nicole Zuraitis, a GRAMMY-winning, New York–based jazz singer, songwriter, pianist, and arranger. Her 2023 album How Love Begins—co-produced with Christian McBride—won Best Jazz Vocal Album at the 66th GRAMMY Awards (2024). She's performed widely from Birdland and Dizzy's Club to symphony halls, and first earned GRAMMY attention in 2019 for her arrangement of Dolly Parton's “Jolene” with the Dan Pugach Nonet. Recent projects include the concert release Live at Vic's and international touring, with additional 2025 GRAMMY nominations connected to her work with husband, Dan Pugach. In this episode, Nicole traces her path from early days hustling in New York's scene to recording a live album, collaborating with Christian McBride, touring in China with Jazz at Lincoln Center partners, and navigating the realities of indie artistry. She digs into the power of networking, the pandemic's impact on jazz rooms, why physical formats still matter, and how grants and private donors help fund albums—before previewing what's next on her creative slate. https://www.nicolezmusic.com/4:53 - Introduction and Nicole's new live album9:23 - The decision to record live at VIXX15:53 - Collaborating with Christian McBride22:38 - Touring in China and working with Jazz at Lincoln Center29:08 - The Grammy experience and independent artist challenges36:33 - The role of networking in New York's music scene44:13 - The impact of the pandemic on jazz clubs51:43 - The importance of physical music products in the digital age59:23 - Funding albums through grants and private donors1:05:53 - Nicole's upcoming projects and future plansEdited and mixed by Peter SchruppMusic by Brassroots DistrictProduced by the team at Ari's TakeOrder the THIRD EDITION of How to Make It in the New Music Business: https://book.aristake.com Hosted on Acast.

Welcome back to Transmissions, a weekly interview podcast created and curated by Los Angeles online music magazine Aquarium Drunkard. This week on the show, host Jason P. Woodbury speaks with a living legend, and one of our all-time favorite vocalists and songsmiths: Emmylou Harris.  On November 7th, New West Records will re-release an expanded edition of her 1998 live album Spyboy, back in print after 27 years. Recorded in the wake 1995's Wrecking Ball, an LP that redefined Harris for a whole new generation, Spyboy finds Harris and her band—Buddy Miller, Brady Blade and Daryl Johnson—on the road and stretching out into feverish new territory for the storied singer. Harris released her first album in 1970, and along the way, she's collaborated with artists like country rock pioneer Gram Parsons, Dolly Parton, Linda Ronstadt, Bob Dylan, Neil Young, and countless more. But as she settled into the ‘90s, she felt that country radio no longer made space for voices like hers—prompting a shift into a new direction with producer Daniel Lanois, who crafted a spectral, haunted sound for Wrecking Ball, placing her voice at the dreamy center. The resulting era introduced Harris to new ears—and we were thrilled to speak with her about it for this episode. Transmissions is created in partnership with the Talkhouse Podcast Network. We're brought to you by ⁠⁠⁠⁠Aquarium Drunkard⁠⁠⁠⁠, an independent music media crew headed by Justin Gage. Over at Aquarium Drunkard, you'll gain access to 20 years of music writing, playlist, essays, mixtapes, radio special, podcasts, videos and more.

MDJ Script/ Top Stories for October 29th Publish Date:  October 29th Commercial: From the BG Ad Group Studio, Welcome to the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.    Today is Wednesday, October 29th and Happy Birthday to Richard Dryfuess I’m Keith Ippolito and here are the stories Cobb is talking about, presented by Times Journal 2025 Smyrna Veterans Day Ceremony MUST Ministries opens clinic, offering affordable medical care Metro Atlanta transit payment system refresh coming soon All of this and more is coming up on the Marietta Daily Journal Podcast, and if you are looking for community news, we encourage you to listen and subscribe!  BREAK: INGLES 3 STORY 1: 2025 Smyrna Veterans Day Ceremony  The 2025 Smyrna Veterans Day Ceremony kicks off at 11 a.m. on Nov. 11 at the Veterans Memorial on King Street. It’s free—parking too—and open to everyone. If it rains? No problem, they’ll move it to the Smyrna Community Center. This year’s keynote speaker is retired U.S. Air Force 1st Lt. David “Shark” Waldrop, a man with stories that sound straight out of a movie. Back in 1967, flying an F-105 Thunderchief over North Vietnam, Waldrop chased down MiG-17s at MACH 1.3, dodged missiles, and took out enemy fighters with nerves of steel and a 20mm Gatling gun. Waldrop flew 105 combat missions, survived being shot down, and earned three Silver Stars, three Distinguished Flying Crosses, and 12 Air Medals. After the Air Force, he spent 32 years flying for Delta and even flew F-8 Crusaders as a Marine reservist. He’s a Nashville native, now living in Cobb County with his wife, Sue, and their two grown sons. Don’t miss the chance to hear his incredible story. STORY 2: MUST Ministries opens clinic, offering affordable medical care  MUST Ministries just took a big step forward: on-site health care. On Oct. 1, the nonprofit opened the MUST Care Clinic, offering affordable—or even free—primary and behavioral health care. “Our ‘why’ is simple,” said MUST CEO Ike Reighard at the ribbon cutting. “We’re here to serve our neighbors in need.” The clinic, staffed by Eastchester Family Services, replaces their mobile medical unit with a permanent space, open three days a week. In just 10 days, they’ve already treated 65 people. MUST raised $1.4 million to open the clinic but needs $600,000 annually to keep it running. The clinic, located at 1260 Cobb Parkway North, is open Monday through Wednesday, 9 a.m. to 5 p.m. STORY 3: Metro Atlanta transit payment system refresh coming soon  Heading downtown for a game or concert? If you’re taking MARTA, get ready for some changes—fare gates are getting a 21st-century upgrade. MARTA announced Monday it’s rolling out new contactless fare equipment. The new gates will be easier to use (no more fumbling with cards), and a smartphone app is on the way, letting riders pay with a mobile wallet. Finally. The “Better Breeze” system will also expand to CobbLinc and Ride Gwinnett soon. But don’t toss your old Breeze card just yet—MARTA says the full switch won’t happen until spring. Fares? Still $2.50. “We’re keeping prices steady, but the system? Long overdue for an upgrade,” said MARTA Interim CEO Jonathan Hunt. Oh, and in a few years, you might not even need a wallet at all. Thanks to a new Georgia law, digital driver’s licenses are coming, though police have until 2027 to get the tech to scan them. We have opportunities for sponsors to get great engagement on these shows. Call 770.799.6810 for more info.  We’ll be right back. Break: INGLES 3 STORY 4: KSU associate professor leads effort to strengthen juvenile justice programs through data analysis   Every year, hundreds of kids leave Georgia’s juvenile justice system, hoping for a fresh start. But staying on that path? That’s the hard part. Kennesaw State’s Austin Brown is tackling it head-on with the Annual Recidivism Report, funded by a $62,000 grant from the Georgia Department of Juvenile Justice. Brown’s team digs into the data—messy, complicated, real-world data—to figure out what’s working and what’s not. “These aren’t just numbers,” Brown said. “They’re kids. Real kids with real stories.” One big takeaway? The gap between male and female recidivism rates is shrinking, a sign that programs targeting young men are making a difference. For Brown, it’s not just about stats—it’s about second chances. STORY 5: All Saints’ Sunday at First Presbyterian Church of Marietta  First Presbyterian Church of Marietta, over on Church Street, is inviting the community to join them for All Saints’ Sunday on Nov. 2 in the Great Hall. All Saints’ Day started as a way to honor early Christian martyrs, but over the centuries, it’s become a time to remember anyone whose faith has shaped our lives. Worship services are at 8:30 and 11 a.m., with gratitude and reflection at the heart of it all. Then, from 5 to 6 p.m., there’s a special concert and remembrance service led by Rev. Joe Evans and the Chancel Choir. Expect music selections from Dolly Parton, John Rutter, and Craig Courtney, plus a chance to add loved ones’ names to a prayer weave—a beautiful symbol of love’s lasting connection. Questions? Reach out to Kelly Dewar at kellydewar@fpcmarietta.org or 770-427-0293. Break: STORY 6: Police: Marietta man killed in shooting involving Smyrna police died of self-inflicted wound    A Marietta man who died after a confrontation with Smyrna police last Friday morning was killed by a self-inflicted gunshot wound, according to Smyrna Police. Darrick Desawn Rooks, 46, was found dead in a stolen U-Haul truck after a traffic stop near Concord Road and McClinden Avenue. Initially, the GBI reported that a gunshot was fired from the U-Haul, prompting officers to return fire. However, Smyrna police later clarified that Rooks’ fatal injury was self-inflicted, a conclusion confirmed by the Cobb County Medical Examiner. No officers were hurt. The GBI is still investigating, with findings to be reviewed by the Cobb County District Attorney. STORY 7: SNAP benefits to halt Nov. 1 due to government shutdown Starting Nov. 1, SNAP benefits won’t be available if the federal government shutdown drags on, the Georgia Department of Human Services announced Friday. SNAP, which is fully funded by Congress, relies on federal dollars—money that’s now tied up. The USDA told state officials there’s not enough funding to cover November benefits. For now, recipients can still use whatever’s left on their EBT cards, but after Nov. 1? Those cards won’t work. “Plan ahead,” Human Services urged. “Shop for what you need now.” Check balances at connectebt.com or the mobile app. And don’t submit duplicate applications—it won’t speed things up. We’ll have closing comments after this. Break: INGLES 3 Signoff-   Thanks again for hanging out with us on today’s Marietta Daily Journal Podcast.

Hey IMO listeners! We want to share an episode of a new podcast from Higher Ground and Audible that we think you will love. In Fela Kuti: Fear No Man, Jad Abumrad—creator of Radiolab, More Perfect, and Dolly Parton's America—tells the story of one of the great political awakenings in music: how a classically trained 'colonial boy' traveled to America, in search of Africa, only to return to Nigeria and transform his sound into a battering ram against the state—creating a new musical language of resistance called Afrobeat. In a world that's on fire, what is the role of art? What can music actually…do? Can a song save a life? Change a law? Topple a president? Get you killed?Listen here and subscribe to Fela Kuti: Fear No Man wherever you get your podcasts!See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
