Joey and Nancy talked about how emotionally draining the week has been, with Nancy admitting she took a two-hour nap and nearly missed school pickup. Joey is second-guessing a church hike in the Smokies after learning someone recently saw a black bear just 15 feet away on the trail. Karly was disappointed she slept through a lunar eclipse after turning off her alarm and ignoring her mom’s attempts to wake her up. The show joked about pumpkin spice latte season arriving in August, while also talking about trendy drinks like matcha, chai, and hazelnut lattes. Joey and Nancy were amazed by the long list of projects Dolly Parton was still working on, including her Broadway musical, Songteller Hotel, coffee line, dolls, documentaries, and several TV projects. A discussion about a Georgia man finding $30 at Walmart turned into a debate about whether keeping money found on the ground counts as stealing. Hot Tea: CNN accidentally used a photo of a Dolly impersonator during coverage of Dolly’s death. Tropical Storm Dolly is forming in the Atlantic, and its name is a total coincidence to Dolly's passing. A man was arrested after parking a truck carrying a 10-foot guillotine near the U.S. Capitol. Joey realized his son wasn’t embarrassed by a goodbye hug. He was embarrassed because Joey had made him sit through a public heart-to-heart conversation outside school first. The principal at Joey’s son’s school called in to support dads openly telling their kids they love them. The show highlighted Dolly tributes happening across the country. Regal Cinemas is showing Dolly classics as a fundraiser for the Imagination Library. Lucky 7 for $50to the Copper Cellar Family of Restaurants Nancy got a massage and accidentally drooled on her masseuse’s bare big toe. The most touching moment came from a tribute by Dolly’s sister Stella, who shared that she and Dolly had coffee together by phone every Tuesday morning and that Dolly was willing to try experimental treatments if they could help others in the future. Comedian Trish Suhr joined the show to promote her Sunday night Bijou Theatre appearance and talked about returning home to East Tennessee and her friendship with Leanne Morgan.

Drop us a line or two . . .This one opens the way all the best CDQ episodes do: mid-ramble, mid-weather report, mid-Cape Cod. TT is live from the cottage and the vibes are immaculate. Queenie is back home and very aware that she's exactly one week away from showing up at four twenty-two because, yes, someone absolutely got busted trying to beat Queenie there last year with a little gifty bag of homemade granola. The code goes out at three-thirty and not a minute before. Some things are sacred. Before we even get to cannabis, we get a genuinely fascinating detour into Cape Cod maritime history. TT and her husband attended a live reenactment at what she's pretty sure was Race Point Beach, where costumed rescuers demonstrated the nineteenth-century breeches buoy system — a cannon-fired rope, a mast, a pair of sailor pants fashioned into a sling, and a zip line over freezing open water. They dragged the whole contraption three miles down the beach in a nor'easter, had to redo it twice because waves kept shifting the foundering boat, and ultimately saved over a hundred thousand lives with what was essentially improvised physics and a lot of guts. TT is clearly still moved by this. Queenie is clearly delighted. There's talk of shellfish farm tours, a pending eclipse wave situation, and the Big Dipper showing up unexpectedly in the living room window at two in the morning. Cape Cod is apparently doing a lot right now. The consumption check-in is a fond one. Queenie is holding a copper tin of Purple Voodoo from Ruby Farms — embossed label, painted-on branding, multiple colors, a little bit of Metallica energy. She and TT take a respectful moment to appreciate good packaging. TT, meanwhile, has been slowly ascending all afternoon on cannabis honey over at her sister's place, spread thick on a Portuguese muffin with almond butter. She thought she was fine. She was not fine. Her sister also thought she was fine. Also not fine. They figured it out around minute twenty of the jigsaw puzzle, which is honestly the ideal setting for that particular realization. There's a houseful of small humans involved this week — seven kids under five between the grand-nieces and nephews and the neighbor kids — and TT is fully leaning into her role as the unbothered elder at the gathering. Not her circus. Then a four-year-old with a plastic Polaroid camera asked her cousin if she could take a picture of his penis, and he, ever obliging, immediately dropped his shorts. The mothers deployed gentle parenting at full speed. The camera was confiscated. Reparations were required in the form of a spoken acknowledgment that we do not photograph people's privates. The acknowledgment was not immediately forthcoming. The acknowledgment eventually came, through repetition. TT watched all of this while gently lifted on a cannabis cocktail and describes it as the highlight of her evening. You believe her completely. The Wait Wait What segment this week covers two TikTok wellness trends that deserve scrutiny. First: shoving a raw clove of garlic up your nose to clear congestion. There are apparently viral videos of mucus flowing freely out of someone's nostril after removal, which sounds less like a cure and more like a crime scene. The garlic isn't clearing your sinuses — it's just irritating your delicate mucous membranes into a full evacuation. Queenie has childhood button-up-the-nose trauma that makes her a deeply unreliable advocate for nasal foreign objects. TT's proposal of a garlic tampon — nose edition, string included, designed for retrievability — is floated with complete sincerity and the segment ends with a jingle that will haunt you. Second trend: sticking your tongue out like a lizard for forty seconds to normalize cortisol. An Egyptian neurologist apparently had results. The girls are skeptical of the cortisol claim but admit that any forty-second intentional pause is probably grounding regardless of what your tongue is doing. They also note that a garlic clove hanging from your nose and your tongue fully extended will absolutely guarantee you personal space in any meeting, Zoom or otherwise. Silver lining. TT's Choice lands on number forty-seven: if CDQ became a TV show, who plays who? TT nominates Leanne Morgan for Queenie. Queenie counters with Jamie Lee Curtis for TT — "like me, with boobs." Kristen Johnston and Julia Louis-Dreyfus are also in the mix. This leads directly into a mutual appreciation of Seth Meyers's Day Drinking series, which Queenie has apparently discovered and is evangelical about. He cannot handle his liquor. It is, by her account, extremely funny. The Lizzo episode sounds unhinged. TT is intrigued. The Fuck It this week is the quiet, real kind. Queenie ran into someone she'd lost touch with — a person she used to spend a lot of time with — and instead of going into a full internal shame spiral, instead of skulking away, instead of falling over herself with explanation and apology and preemptive guilt, she just... was happy to see her. They met each other where they were. That was it. TT immediately clocks how significant this is. Old Queenie would have been sweating through the whole encounter, narrating every possible way she'd failed this person. This Queenie just showed up, present, no story. The fuck it here isn't dramatic — it's the fuck it to the chatter in your own head. To the little internal voice that's always ready with a verdict before you've even said hello. They credit the weekly ritual of naming things, talking it out, doing the work. If you name it, you can tame it. Queenie also notes, with no small amount of practical wisdom, that she came away from the encounter not having gotten the woman's updated phone number. Growth has its limits. They sign off warm — next episode they'll be recording together from the Cape, which has been the countdown since minute one. The week ahead includes a New Orleans-style band tonight, more puzzle progress on the record store jigsaw, and whatever the deep sea disco Provincetown parade ends up delivering in terms of mermaid costuming. The expectations are high. The bar is a lot of sequins and a fish tail. It will probably be met. Welcome to the Closet Disco Queen Pot-Cast, a #1 ranked Women in Cannabis (Feedspot, Million Pods; 2025) comedy podcast with music and pop culture references that keeps you laughing and engaged.

Leanne Morgan joins David and Dana this week to talk about flirting with Glenn Powell, tobacco farming, and season two of her Netflix sitcom, Leanne. Also, slipping her act into her jewelry home parties, corporate stand-up gigs, and what it's like to work with Chuck Lorre.
Nancy apologized for making the staff meeting go long yesterday. Karly texted and thanked Joey during the meeting because she thought he was trying to wrap things up so everyone could get on with their day. Joey shared that his mom, Babs, saw his "summer fit" picture and immediately asked if he was taking Zepbound. He said nope, just diet and exercise, which led to a conversation about how common weight loss drugs have become. Nancy said her son refuses to sleep in the guest room during their home renovation because he thinks the antique beds are haunted. The furniture came from her great-grandmother's old hotel, but he's convinced there are ghosts involved and plans to sleep on the couch instead. The show got into the crazy Penn State cocaine ring story involving fraternity members who allegedly had pledges helping package and sell drugs. Joey immediately turned it into a dramatic movie trailer. Joey and Nancy talked about "after-call ads," where certain apps can pop up advertisements the second you hang up a phone call. That turned into a discussion about all the random places ads have invaded, including gas pumps, rideshares, streaming services, and airport security lines. Hot Tea: Hayden Panettiere's mom spoke publicly after Hayden's passing and said she never approved of Hayden's boyfriend. Lainey Wilson landed her first comedy role on Leanne, starring East Tennessee favorite Leanne Morgan. And a man in Norway got fined nearly $7,000 for waking up a sleeping polar bear with a foghorn. Nancy was completely over refrigerator shopping after discovering modern fridges now come with cameras, grocery tracking, talking door alerts, and giant cocktail ice makers. She finally hired an appliance specialist because the choices were overwhelming. The show watched a viral clip of two Detroit TV anchors arguing off-camera and compared it to one of their own awkward radio moments. Joey brought up the time Nancy kept correcting him while he was trying to talk about the Budweiser Clydesdales. Lucky 7 for $50 to Old South Candy Joey admitted he has a weird rule about driving. If he sees someone he knows on the road, he refuses to pass them and tries not to be seen. His nightmare came true when a pastor spotted him at a stoplight flossing his teeth like his life depended on it. The show gave away a chance to ride Dollywood’s new Night Flight Expedition coaster with them. Listeners text FLIGHT to 865-656-9485. Joey and Nancy say 5 people's names on the air. The first of those people to call us wins. What Makes You Special? I'm a Foley Artist! See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.

Then, in her fifties, everything changed.With her trademark humor and warmth, Leanne shares what it was like to keep showing up long after many people would have given up. She reflects on motherhood, caregiving, marriage, becoming a grandmother, and the surprising freedom that comes with getting older.Most of all, she reminds us that there is no expiration date on becoming who we're meant to be.Over this delightful hour, Leanne will regale you with charming hard-won life lessons including:● Why success arriving later can be a gift● The power of perseverance through disappointment● The balancing act of holding dreams, caregiving, and family life all with care● How humor helps us survive hard seasons● Why comparison is a thief of joy● The freedom that comes with embracing your own timeline● What it means to trust that what's meant for you won't miss youIf you've ever wondered whether you've missed your chance, whether it's too late to pivot, or whether your most joyful years are already behind you, Leanne has a message for you:You are not behind. You are not too late. Your story is still unfolding.Thought-provoking Quotes:★ "I always just knew it was going to happen... I knew there were people out there going through the same thing I'm going through. I just didn't know how to reach them." — Leanne Morgan ★ "I really try to be present and enjoy it, because what a gift after all these years. It's just like icing on the cake, really." — Leanne Morgan ★ "I hope they take away: use humor to get you through hard times. I think it's the best thing that could ever happen to anybody, to be able to laugh through the bad times." — Leanne Morgan ★ "I've got to be me. I've got to do what I've got to do. If y'all love me or if you don't, it's okay." — Leanne Morgan Resources Mentioned in This Episode:➢ What in the World?!: A Southern Woman's Guide to Laughing at Life's Unexpected Curveballs by Leanne Morgan - https://www.leannemorgan.com/book➢ I'm Every Woman (Netflix Special) - https://www.netflix.com/title/81688708➢ You're Cordially Invited (Amazon MGM Studios) - https://www.amazon.com/gp/video/detail/B0D9WF53QX➢

Leanne Morgan was a late bloomer in comedy but that doesn't mean it wasn't in her heart for a long time.
