Podcasts about Porter Wagoner

Dolly Parton died on August 25, 2026, at age 80. While most tributes are focused on the music, this episode looks at something else entirely: Dolly Parton the businesswoman and entertainer. She sang at the Grand Ole Opry at 13 and was still building her empire seven decades later, which is rare in an industry where most acts have a five-to-ten-year run. As we like to say around here, success leaves clues, and Dolly left a lot of them. Below are 12 lessons pulled from her career, each one translated into something a podcaster can actually use.Take Advantage of Opportunities When They Show UpIn the late 1960s, a teenage Dolly landed a spot on the syndicated Porter Wagoner Show, earning $60,000 a year — by her own account, more money than she'd ever seen. She could have stayed comfortable as Porter's sidekick. Instead, she used the platform to build her name, and when she'd gotten what she needed from it, she left in 1974 to build something that was actually hers. Wagoner threatened to have her dropped from her label and later sued her; she ended up paying roughly $1 million to settle it, and the relationship took years to repair before the two eventually reconciled (American Songwriter, Cheat Sheet).Why it matters for your podcast: your show builds relationships, those relationships create opportunities, and taking advantage of those opportunities (a guest slot, a speaking gig, a collaboration) is what grows your audience — which creates more relationships. It's a loop, and it only works if you actually act when the opportunity shows up.Build a Podcast Brand People Instantly RecognizeYou knew Dolly when you saw her. Her wig, the rhinestones, the exaggerated glamour, her boobs, wasn't an accident. She said she based it on the town's "tramp."Dolly's response: I wanted to look like her. I thought she was beautiful. Her best line, "It costs a lot of money to look this cheap" says it all. When Barbara Walters pushed her on it in a 1970s interview, essentially implying she looked like a hillbilly, Dolly shot back that she might "kick her in the shin" and laughed the whole way through it.Why it matters for your podcast: a distinctive brand gets you noticed once. Celebrity, a striking name, a bold visual that earns the first click. What earns the return listener is the talent and substance behind it. Dolly had both, and so should your show.Own Your Audience — Don't Rent It to a PlatformDolly wrote "I Will Always Love You" in 1973 as a farewell to Porter Wagoner. When Elvis wanted to record it in 1974, his manager Colonel Tom Parker demanded the publishing rights as a condition for Elvis to record it. This was a standard (crappy) practice for an Elvis cut at the time.Dolly said no, even though it was Elvis. Nearly two decades later, Whitney Houston's version spent 14 weeks at No. 1 and sold an estimated 20 million copies. Because Dolly still owned 100% of the publishing, that single song brought her roughly $10 million in royalties in the 1990s alone, and an estimated $20 million total from the Houston version according to Forbes (American Songwriter).Why it matters for your podcast: As fellow podcaster Steve Stewart puts it, "Don't sell your audience to your sponsor, sell your sponsor on the value of your audience." The same logic applies to platforms: own your website, your domain, and your email list so no single network or app can take your audience away from you. It happens — YouTube pulled a top parenting podcast off the platform entirely (before reinstating it after public pressure). Dolly held onto her publishing because she knew the long game mattered more than a quick win. Hold onto your feed the same way. This is why an RSS feed is important. You can't be cancelled, and you can easily move to a new host if needed.Don't Take Yourself Too SeriouslyLong before a critic could land a joke, Dolly had already made it herself. On plastic surgery: "If I see something sagging, bagging, or dragging, I'm going to have it nipped, tucked, or sucked." Even the announcement of her passing carried her sense of humor forward, joking that she was finally ready to trade the rhinestones for something more comfortable.Why it matters for your podcast: self-deprecating humor makes an audience like you more. If you can laugh at yourself — a mistake, dated gear, a rough first episode — listeners relax and warm up to you faster. Have fun with your show. Otherwise, you'll burn out on it.Be Consistent — It Builds TrustDolly reportedly slept in her makeup in case she had to get up in the middle of the night for an emergency, because she never wanted to be seen without it. More importantly, she was always, unmistakably Dolly be it on stage or off, in an interview or in a duet, across 70 years of performing. People who met her said what you saw on stage is exactly what you got in person.Why it matters for your podcast: consistency isn't just about your publishing schedule (though that matters too) — it's about your output staying recognizably you. A listener who hasn't tuned in for six months should know exactly what they're getting the moment they hit play.Know Your WhyDollywood already existed under a couple of generic names before Dolly bought into it in 1986. She didn't just license her name and collect a check — she built it to bring jobs to her hometown region in Tennessee, rooting the business in something true about her instead of something generic and scalable. Today it generates an estimated $180–580 million a year, with her stake alone valued around $165 million.Why it matters for your podcast: plenty of celebrities slap their name on a generic product — a tequila brand, a theme park, a template — and it doesn't work because the "why" isn't real. If you're just copying someone else's show format and putting your name on it, it's probably not going to land. Know why you're actually doing this.Secondly if you put your name behind it, it better be a positive reflection of you (think about this when it comes to sponsors). If you say a product is great, and your audience buys it and it's not, they won't buy anything else from you as your integrity is shot.Experiment With New Formats Without Losing Your IdentityDolly moved from country into pop in the '70s (9 to 5 and more), then made the bluegrass albums she couldn't make earlier in her career because they were "too niche" — as she put it, "I had to get rich so I could come back and sound poor" (BrainyQuote). She went into TV, movies, and near the end of her life a Broadway musical. It was based on her own story, for which she wrote much of the score (so you could say she liked to stay busy).She initially tried to withdraw her name from Rock and Roll Hall of Fame consideration, saying she hadn't "earned that right," then was inducted anyway and leaned all the way in, dueting with Judas Priest's Rob Halford at the ceremony (Rolling Stone, Fox News). She later recorded "Please Please Please" with Sabrina Carpenter — a genre-crossing pairing where each artist's fans discovered the other (Rolling Stone).Why it matters for your podcast: every new genre, format, or collaboration was still unmistakably Dolly. That's the model — try new things, but stay recognizably yourself. And notice the audience-sharing angle: pairing with an artist (or podcaster) who has an adjacent audience introduces you to people who'd never have found you otherwise. That's exactly what cross-promotion with a show in your niche can do for you.Outsource What You're Not Good AtWhen Dolly wrote and starred in the 1986 TV movie A Smoky Mountain Christmas, she knew the script and the performance were her strengths — but directing wasn't, so she brought in Henry Winkler (yes, the Fonz) to direct (Yahoo News).Why it matters for your podcast: do the parts of your show you're genuinely good at and enjoy, and hand off the rest — editing, show notes, technical setup — to someone who does it better than you.Give Back to Build LoyaltyDespite her wealth, Dolly gave away enormous sums, saying she prayed for "enough to share and enough to spare." In 1995 she launched the Imagination Library in...

It was 1967, and country musician Porter Wagoner was introducing a guest on his weekly TV show.The camera cuts to a woman with big, blonde beehive, wearing a magenta mini dress with the same shade of lipstick to match.

This week on Red State Update, Jackie and Dunlap wail in grief about: Dolly Parton, the only person left who could bring this country together, and her work with the oppressed, the underprivileged, and Porter Wagoner. Plus her movies, her songs, Tim Curry, and why Dolly's legacy goes beyond singin, actin, Dollywood, and Straight Talk. Plus Whorehouse, Jim Nabors, and how everyone's Mom's kitchen used to look like the Trio album cover. Friendships with Canada never last, but Lake America is forever Supreme Court don't seem to mind what Trump does with mail-in ballots, elections, democracy.  DOJ hires a lawyer once convicted of election-site hacking Wild horses couldn't keep Trump away — Protected wild horses are sold for slaughter while Trump lets beef imports come in from wherever, American farmers be damned, even if we got to do a Beef recall — 30,000 pounds of Argentine beef recalled after sale in Florida and Texas. ABC / Rosie / FCC — ABC is airing Rosie O'Donnell and suing Trump's FCC after previously kissin trump ass Secret Service is reportedly alarmed by Natalie Harp's letters. Trump will tear down the Kennedy Center if they don't put his name on it. Michael Cohen: still terrible Our health and what's left of it: RURAL Michigan hospitals closing or cutting services after Medicaid cuts. o   Measles — U.S. measles cases are at their highest level since 1991, with two deaths reported. RFK Jr. is tied to conspiracy-tinged comments about measles deaths. Byron Donalds blames spread on illegal immigration. ICE arrests — ICE arrests surged—they're arrestin people with no criminal convictions to make their dumb damn quotas.   More folks in immigrant camps  than ATL population Deaf migrants — Deaf migrants deported without sign-language interpreters A mile of border infrastructure in Big Bend reportedly costs more than the park's annual budget.

Rob Long talks about Dolly Parton's “I Will Always Love You” — written as a graceful goodbye to Porter Wagoner when she left his show to go solo — as a way into the real question: how did Dolly stay beloved across a divided culture? He tracks the WNYC/Radiolab podcast Dolly Parton's America, in which earnest public-radio producers keep trying to claim her as a feminist, a lesbian icon, an anti-Trump ally — and Dolly keeps politely declining every label. Her secret, Long argues, isn't ideology but her small-C Christianity: she reconciled with and financially rescued the man who once sued her, she wrote emotionally true and honest songs, she loved the stranger.

Author Alanna Nash joins host Nate Wilcox to talk about her book "Dolly: The Biography," one of the first critical biographies ever written about a country superstar — and what Nashville made of it. Nate and Alanna discuss Dolly Parton's humble origins and her almost supernatural drive; the evening at her first house outside Nashville that produced both "Jolene" and "I Will Always Love You" in a single writing session; what it actually took to get out from under Porter Wagoner, who had her tied to his publishing company every way a person can be tied; the phone call Chet Atkins made to Nash, out of the blue, to correct one line in her book; why Nashville spent years convinced her husband Carl Dean did not exist; how she got to every joke about herself before anybody else could; and the time capsule at her Tennessee resort holding a song nobody will hear until she turns 100. Alanna Nash has interviewed Dolly Parton across four decades. She is also the author of "The Colonel," the definitive book on Tom Parker, and a longtime friend of this show. Let It Roll is a history of commercial music from the Renaissance forward, with a focus on the long American century.

Rhinestone-studded suits and colorful embroidery are hallmarks of classic Western wear—a tradition immortalized by artists like Porter Wagoner, Lefty Frizzell, and Little Jimmy Dickens. Indianapolis designer Jerry Lee Atwood carries that spirit forward with custom pieces that have appeared in Vogue magazine and in the wardrobes of Post Malone, Lil Nas X, Diplo, and Charley Crockett. A new exhibition of his work opens at the Eiteljorg Museum on March 28. WFYI's Kyle Long spoke with Atwood to learn more. They discussed his early years growing up in Lafayette, his work with the punk band Candidate, and how a job at an Indianapolis coffee shop led him to designing Western wear.

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.

Fáilte ar ais chuig eagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo ar an 6ú lá de mí an Mheithimh, liomsa Lauren Ní Loingsigh. I 1975 tháinig an nuacht amach go mbeadh an phacáiste comhrialtas chun dífhostaíocht a laghdú agus go mbeadh boilsciú ann, agus bhí plé cráite ann I rith an deireadh seachtain. I 1986 bhí coimhlint idir stailceoirí agus gardaí agus mar sin de tháinig an airm isteach chun é a stopadh I mBaile Átha Cliath. I 1986 bhí coiste nua sa chontae ag iarradh cuimhneacháin a bheith acu in Iarthar an chontae in aice leis an Spanish Armada. I 1997 throid Fianna Fáil faoin tSionainn. Sin Doctor & The Medics le Spirit In The Sky – an t-amhrán is mó ar an lá seo I 1986 Ag lean ar aghaidh le nuacht cheoil ar an lá seo I 1974 tháinig Dolly Parton agus RCA Records amach le hamhrán darbh ainm I Will Always Love You – bhí sé a dara hamhrán ón albam Jolene. Rinne sí taifead ar an amhrán bliain roimhe agus scríobh sí an t-amhrán do Porter Wagoner. I 1987 shroich Whitney Houston uimhir a haon lena amhrán I Wanna Dance With Somebody – a dara hamhrán a shroich uimhir a haon sa Bhreatain. Shroich sí uimhir a haon I dtír eile agus bhuaigh sí Grammy don amhrán I 1988. Agus ar deireadh breithlá daoine cáiliúla ar an lá seo rugadh aisteoir Paul Giamatti I Meiriceá I 1967 agus rugadh aisteoir Jason Isaacs sa Bhreatain ar an lá seo I 1963 agus seo chuid de na rudaí a rinne sé. Beidh mé ar ais libh an tseachtain seo chugainn le heagrán nua de Ar An Lá Seo. Welcome back to another edition of Ar An Lá Seo on the 6th of June, with me Lauren Ní Loingsigh 1975: the coalition package to cut unemployment and inflation was due to be ready by the weekend following agonising deliberations. 1986: a violent confrontation between corporation strikers and gardai ended in an army squad being forced to abandon a clean up operation in central dublin. 1986: A new committee was formed in co.clare to have a memorial erected in west clare to the spanish armada. 1997: Fianna Fail had a 'dogfight' over shannon. That was Doctor and The Medics with Spirit In The Sky – the biggest song on this day in 1986 Onto music news on this day In 1974 RCA Records released 'I Will Always Love You' by Dolly Parton, the second single from Parton's thirteenth solo studio album, Jolene. Recorded on June 13, 1973, the singer wrote the song for her one-time partner and mentor Porter Wagoner, from whom she was professionally splitting at the time. 1987 Whitney Houston had her second UK No.1 single with 'I Wanna Dance with Somebody (Who Loves Me)'. It reached No.1 in over a dozen other countries and won a Grammy Award for Best Female Pop Vocal Performance in 1988. And finally celebrity birthdays on this day – actor Paul Giamatti was born in America in 1967 and actor Jason Isaacs was born in the UK on this day in 1963 and this is some of the stuff he has done. I'll be back with you next week with another edition of Ar An Lá Seo.

You don't wanna miss the laughs and memories shared in this episode!   About Bill Anderson: Bill Anderson has been using that philosophy for over sixty years to capture the attention of millions of country music fans around the world, en route to becoming a member of the Country Music Hall of Fame and one of the most popular, most enduring entertainers of our time. He's known, in fact as "Whispering Bill," a nickname hung on him years ago as a result of his breathy voice and his warm, soft approach to singing a country song. His credentials, however, shout his prominence: One of the most awarded songwriters in the history of country music, a million-selling recording artist many times over, television game show host, network soap opera star, author of four books, and a consummate onstage performer. His backup group, The Po' Folks Band, has long been considered one of the finest instrumental and vocal groups in the business. Bill Anderson was born in Columbia, South Carolina, but spent most of his growing-up years around Atlanta, Georgia. He graduated from the University of Georgia with a degree in journalism, having worked his way through college as a disc jockey on nearby radio stations. It was while he was still in school that he began performing and writing songs. At the age of nineteen, he composed the country classic, "City Lights," and began rapidly carving his place in musical history. He moved to Nashville, Tennessee, secured a recording contract with Decca Records, and began turning out hit after hit with songs like "Po'Folks," "Mama Sang A Song," "The Tips Of My Fingers," "8X10," and the unforgettable country and pop smash, "Still." His compositions were recorded by such diverse musical talents as Ray Price, Porter Wagoner, James Brown, Debbie Reynolds, Ivory Joe Hunter, Kitty Wells, Faron Young, Lawrence Welk, Dean Martin, Jerry Lee Lewis, Aretha Franklin, Walter Brennan and many others. Bill has been voted Songwriter Of The Year six times, Male Vocalist Of The Year, half of the Duet Of The Year with both Jan Howard and Mary Lou Turner, has hosted and starred in the Country Music Television Series Of The Year, seen his band voted Band Of The Year, and in 1975 was voted membership in the Nashville Songwriters Hall of Fame. Ten years later, the State of Georgia honored him by choosing him as only the 7th living performer inducted into the Georgia Music Hall of Fame. In 1993, he was made a member of the Georgia Broadcasters' Hall of Fame. In 1994, South Carolina inducted him into their Music and Entertainment Hall of Fame. And in 2001, he received the ultimate honor, membership in Nashville's prestigious Country Music Hall of Fame. Bill Anderson continues to paint a broad stroke across the Nashville music scene. He has been a member of the Grand Ole Opry since 1961 and performs there regularly. He continues to write and to record, his latest release being vocal and instrumental versions of some of his best known songs, titled "Bill Anderson - The Hits Re-Imagined." On the personal side, Bill lives on Old Hickory Lake outside Nashville where he spends as much time as possible with his three children and eight grandchildren. He is a boater and sports enthusiast who has been known to adjust his work schedule to fit around a ball game he just "has to see." He is an avid reader, his bookshelves lined with mysteries, biographies, books on religion, sports, and humor.   Listen to Unbroke:...

This week, Ozark original singer, multi-instrumentalist and hit song writing powerhouse Shawn Camp recorded live at the Ozark Folk Center State Park. Also, interviews with this #1 country song writing genius. Some careers can be described with a couple of words but Shawn Camp's isn't one of them. A bold and distinctive singer, a songwriter who's provided material for artists ranging from Ralph Stanley, Del McCoury and Ricky Skaggs to Garth Brooks, Alan Jackson, Porter Wagoner, Loretta Lynn and Brooks & Dunn with hits such as “Two Pina Coladas” (Garth Brooks,) “Nobody But Me” (Blake Shelton,) “Would You Go With Me” (Josh Turner,) “River Of Love” (George Strait) and Billy Currington's hit single “Love Done Gone.”  Along with being a hit writer, he is a gifted multi-instrumentalist who's played as a touring/recording musician with everyone from Jerry Reed, Trisha Yearwood, Shelby Lynn, and Alan Jackson to the Osborne Brothers, Guy Clark and John Prine. - https://shawncamp.com/bio Shawn is joined in this performance by fiddle champion and multi-instrumentalist Tim Crouch. A bluegrass and country fiddle player from Strawberry, Arkansas, Tim got his start fiddling with Jim & Jesse as a Virginia Boy when he was 19 years old. He has since worked with a long list of country and bluegrass artists including Alan Jackson, Dolly Parton and Alison Krauss. He is a former staff fiddle player for Nashville's "Grand Ole Opry" and has also performed on numerous television programs including "Late Night with David Letterman," “The Conan O'Brien Show," "CBS This Morning," "Austin City Limits," "Hee Haw" and others. In this week's “From the Vault” segment, OHR producer Jeff Glover offers an archival recording of Ozark original fiddle master Tim Crouch playing the tune “Tom and Jerry” at the 1981 SPBGMA Fiddle Contest held at the Ozark Folk Center State Park. In his segment “Back in the Hills,” writer, professor and historian Dr. Brooks Blevins discusses the Ozarks' influence at the “Festival of Festivals,” the first National Folk Festival held in St. Louis, Missouri in 1934.

Dolly Parton forgave Porter Wagoner for controlling her creatively, for suing her for millions, and for slandering her. But how she forgave him is perhaps the most important part.

When Dolly makes it to Nashville, stardom doesn't come as quickly as she'd hoped. But landing a spot as the Girl Singer on Porter Wagoner's show brings her much closer to her dreams. There's just one problem — Porter controls every aspect of her career. And Dolly's ready to strike out on her own.
