Shel Silverstein - Boy Named Sue (1969)  Silverstein introduced it to Johnny Cash at what they used to call a "guitar pull," where musicians would pass a guitar around and play their songs. He was the main songwriter for Dr. Hook and the Medicine Show, and he wrote "The Giving Tree".  Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds - Ain't No Woman Like The One I Got (1972) From Discogs: Hallway Symphony was the second studio album of the band Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds, released in 1972. It was their final album for the Dunhill label. That same year, Tommy Reynolds quit the group to form a band called Shango; different session musicians took his place in their touring and recording before Alan Dennison replaced him permanently a year later (but the band kept their original name of "Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds"). In 1973, the band was dropped from Dunhill due to lack of chart success, but they continued touring and performing live in Las Vegas and various colleges, thanks to the continuing radio play of their huge hit "Don't Pull Your Love." The guys who wrote this also smeared their scent on AM radio thusly: "One Tin Soldier" (1971) The Original Caste, (1973) Coven "Don't Pull Your Love" (1971), Hamilton, Joe Frank & Reynolds "Two Divided by Love" (1971), The Grass Roots "Are You Man Enough" (1973), Four Tops (From Shaft in Africa) "Country Boy (You Got Your Feet in L.A.)" (1975), Glen Campbell "It Only Takes a Minute" (1975), Tavares "Nightshift" (1985), Commodores "We Built This City" (1985), Starship Yes, do tell your friends that they recorded "Falling In Love" on Playboy Records, the only #1 for that label.  Peter, Paul, and Mary - And When I Die (1966)    Family Dogg - Arizona (1969) This would be a big solo hit for Mark Lindsay of Paul Revere and the Raiders, who I like. The fellow who wrote this, Kenny Young, also wrote "Under The Boardwalk" by The Drifters.  Johnny Madara & the Juvenaires  - Do The Bop (1957) When Danny & the Juniors were still called The Juvenairs. Initially called "Do the Bop", the song was heard by Dick Clark, who suggested they change the band name to the Juniors and the chorus from "Let's all do the Bop" to "Let's go to the Hop". After performing the song on Clark's show American Bandstand, it gained popularity and went to the top of the US charts, remaining at number one for five weeks. Connie Stevens - Keep Growing Strong (Betcha By Golly Wow) (1970) You couldn't watch TV without seeing Connie Stevens in the '70s. It's strange that such a scattershot discography (she recorded mostly in the early '60s) should feature such a great song. In fact, I don't see mention of it at all on her website, which, I'm sure was last updated years ago. Her daughter Joely was on Ellen (the show, not the woman) and keeps plugging away. Like you and me.  Johnny Rivers - By The Time I Get to Phoenix (1965)  Petula Clark - Call Me (1965)  David Martin - Can't Smile Without You (1975) Gator Creek - Danny’s Song (1970) Anne Murray turned this into a hit a few years later. This song was written by the fella that sang "Footloose" and duetted with Stevie Nicks on "Whenever I Call You Friend". Gator Creek included Michael Omartian, who went on to produce Christopher Cross, Whitney Houston, and Michael Bolton. So...thanks?  PJ Proby - Delilah (1967)  Shorty Long - Devil With The Blue Dress On (1964) From that Wikipedia: Long's biggest hit was "Here Comes the Judge" which in July 1968 reached No. 4 on the R&B charts and No. 8 eight on the Billboard Hot 100. The song was inspired by a comic act on Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In about a judge by Pigmeat Markham, whose own "Here Comes the Judge" – a similar song with different lyrics – charted three weeks after Long's, also in July 1968, and reached No. 19 on Billboard. Long was the only Motown artist besides Smokey Robinson who was allowed to produce his own recordings in the 1960s. Marvin Gaye, in David Ritz's biography Divided Soul: The Life & Times of Marvin Gaye, described Shorty Long as "this beautiful cat who had two hits, and then got ignored by Motown." Gaye claimed he "fought for guys like Shorty" while at Motown, since no one ever pushed for these artists. When Holland-Dozier-Holland came to Gaye with a tune, he stated, "Why are you going to produce me? Why don't you produce Shorty Long?" On June 29, 1969, Long and a friend drowned when their boat crashed on the Detroit River in Michigan. Stevie Wonder played the harmonica at his burial and placed it on his casket afterward.  Rowan and Martin's Laugh-In inspired many, many records. One by Freddie Cannon. It's shit. Most of them are.  The Greenbriar Boys - Different Drum (1966) Great song? Meh. Rhymes "knock it" with "market".  Larry Williams - Dizzy Miss Lizzy (1958) The Exciters - Doo Wah Diddy (1963) Best known for their hit single, "Tell Him" which reached #4 on the US charts in February 1963. Thelma Houston - Do You Know Where You're Going To (1973)  This was made into a monster hit as "Love Theme From 'Mahogany'" by Diana Ross in 1975. I guess anything can be a "love theme".    These are the lyrics to the version everyone knows:   Once we were standing still in time,Chasing the fantasies that filled our minds.And you knew how I loved you but my spirit was free,Laughing at the questions that you once asked of me..... Now looking back at all we planned,We let so many dreams just slip through our hands.Why must we wait so long before we seeHow sad the answers to those questions can be?   And here are the previous, somewhat inscrutable lyrics sung by Thelma Houston:    Sometimes, while standing still in time,You think you leave the thoughts that filled your minds.Now we've both been to Stoney Brook, just hanging out, We've had a look and seen what nothing's about..... Now, what am I to say to you?What kind of prayer am I to pray for you?I can only do my best and tell ya what I see,And if you see the rest, please send it to me...   The Moments  - We Don't Cry Out Loud (1976)  Harold Melvin and the Blue Notes - Don't Leave Me This Way (1975) This was made into a monster hit by Thelma Houston in 1976. No matter which version you listen to, if that chorus doesn't make you move and smile, I can't help you.  The Raindrops - Hanky Panky (1963) The Raindrops were an American pop studio group from New York, associated with the Brill Building style of 1960s pop. The group existed from 1963 to 1965 and consisted of Ellie Greenwich and Jeff Barry who were also both famous songwriters.  The Dells - Higher and Higher (1967)  Smokey Robinson and the Miracles - I Heard It Thru The Grapevine (1966)  The Captain and Tennille - I Write The Songs (1975) Helen Shapiro - It’s My Party (1963)  Richard Kerr - I’ll Never Love This Way Again (1978) Richard Kerr is an English composer, who co-wrote "Mandy", "Looks Like We Made It" and "Somewhere in the Night" (all of which became hit singles for Barry Manilow) and "I'll Never Love This Way Again", for Dionne Warwick. Paul Revere and the Raiders - (I'm Not Your) Steppin' Stone (1966) Fans consider this the apex of the Revere canon, but I prefer the crazy, desperate intensity of Collage. Still, good, beat-heavy set anchored by "Kicks" and this.    Gene Cotton - Let Your Love Flow (1975)  Neil Sedaka - Love Will Keep Us Together (1973) The original version is pretty good, with some of the electric and unique magic of the Captain and Tennile version that dominated the charts in 1975. I know POACA will not agree, but if you could disassociate the treacly image of these married session players and their TV show, it was an incredible song. And this version was recorded at Strawberry Studios in collaboration with Graham Gouldman, Lol Creme, Kevin Godley, and Eric Stewart, who had formed the band 10cc since their first joint venture with Sedaka on Solitaire. "...in association with 10C.C." Roger Miller - Me and Bobby McGee (1969)  Racey - Kitty (1979)  The Ever-Green Blues - Midnight Confessions (1967) The Brothers Four - Mr. Tambourine Man (1965)

Black lives matter. The sh*t is out there. Everyday, women have to decide how to handle it in ways men just don't. What to wear, going to a party, responding to catcalls: these choices all have consequences. And there is a reason most animals in the wild avoid predators by playing dead. This episode is a conversation between Heather and Tennile Marie (@tennilemarie). Tennile brings up the lack of proper sex education she had growing up, and the questions about her own body she had to figure out for herself: How does the vagina work? Is there any way a tampon can even fit up there? Is discharge supposed to happen, or is it bad? And speaking of discharge, this episode also includes Heather asking our producer Alex to report everything he knows about discharge. Or crotch snot, as Tennile refers to it. As the conversation progresses, the focus becomes the constant state of awareness that women must adopt all the time when interacting with the world. From an early age, it is just ingrained that any decision could possibly lead to violence, and that a woman can be a target just by being a woman. Which decision will lead to the least amount of violence? Is this a situation that can be fought? Or is it better to just let predatory behavior happen, and try to move past it without really talking about it? It is important to have space to talk about topics like these. It is important to have representation in all parts of society. And it is also important to make sure you have some extra tampons in the bathroom. Whether you are a gender that needs to use them or not, never hurts to have a few extra tampons available. Thank you so much to Tennile, and thank YOU for listening! The production is produced by Heather Ann Gottlieb, Cameron Tagge, Alex Salem, and Tristen Bankston. The theme song vocals are vocalized by Natalie Sharp. The artwork is worked by Kevin Laughlin. The distribution is distributed by WhoHaHa. We have MERCH! Go to teepublic.com and go craaaaaazy!! And our brand spankin’ new website dirtygirlpodcast.com is good to go, so go check it out!

Tonight's special guest is Tennile Chapman from Oakwood, Georgia, an abuse survivor who's now a child and victim advocate. "I was molested by both of my stepfathers, the first one from around age 4," Tennile says. "My second stepfather, my sister's biological father, made it clear to me that as long as I was available to him, he wouldn't touch my sister, his daughter." Her mom divorced him as Tennille started high school but she knew her sister would be at risk. "The need to protect her was stronger than my desire to keep quiet. We ended up going to court and he was sentenced to 15 to 20 years." Her uncle had been making payoffs to 'compensate' the family for many years. "I later learned that my mother not only knew what my uncle was doing, but that she deliberately sent me there during the summer to earn money," Tennile explaines. As a young adult she sought out men online to have sex with. "I was in control of when, where, how, etc." Eventually she realized what she'd been doing cause just as much damage to herself as her abusers had done. "After meeting a “nice guy” through work, I was date raped and had an unconfirmed miscarriage." She turned to God, and her healing began. "He has called me into the advocacy field to help fellow victims and survivors," she says. "I spent the last 11 and a half years working at a local Child Advocacy Center helping child victims and their families going through the criminal justice system." She goes on, "I know God wants me to use my story to help others." Tennile tell us her trauma has become the foundation for a book she's writing now.

Mighty Blue On The Appalachian Trail: The Ultimate Mid-Life Crisis

Trevor Thomas was an adrenaline junkie in his mid-thirties when he started to lose his sight. Six months later, he was completely blind. After a spell of understandable bitterness, Trevor refused to allow his new circumstances to define him. Approaching the logistical issues with a precise attention to detail, he set out on a new journey. This has led him to hike nearly 20,000 miles in the past ten years. His story is inspiring, as is his mission to empower blind and visually impaired young adults while challenging the misconceptions the sighted community has toward the blind. He founded Team FarSight Foundation, Inc. to achieve this goal in 2014. Since 2012, Trevor has been accompanied on his many adventures by his remarkable companion, Tennile.     There are many ways to contact Trevor; Facebook, Twitter, and Instagram, as well as through his website. He and Tennile continue to inspire those of us who often take our physical well-being for granted.     Jessa is now in her first 100 miles and enjoying every minute.

Today's Guest: Toni Tennille, singer, The Captain and Tennille, author, Toni Tennille: A Memoir   Watch this exclusive Mr. Media interview with Toni Tennille by clicking on the video player above!  Mr. Media is recorded live before a studio audience full of pop stars who won’t believe that drug and alcohol abuse is not at the core of what went wrong with The Captain and Tennile… in the NEW new media capital of the world… St. Petersburg, Florida! Toni Tennille: A Memoir is an okay title for the Alabama native’s life story, but once you read it to the end, you might agree with me that “Toni Tennille: Happy At Last” is more fitting. I cannot deny that I had low expectations as I began reading the autobiography of this singer who I always adored as a teen and held on to over the decades as a guilty pop pleasure. The glamour, the celebrity friends, parties, etc. – ho-hum, we’ve certainly heard it all before. But trust me, you haven’t heard this story. TONI TENNILLE podcast excerpt: "I cannot blame Daryl for the kind of man he is. He was raised quite differently from the way I was; he was raised in a family that was very dysfunctional. My dad was a binge drinker. But there was no doubt that he adored me and my sisters and that he loved my mom and my mother loved us as well.Daryl was raised in a family that had lots and lots of difficult issues. His father, Carmen Dragon, was an Academy Award-winning film scorer and symphony composer. He was 'The Maestro' -- a handsome, charismatic man. But when Daryl and I started to have some hits and Daryl's name got out there, I think (Carmen) might have been jealous of his own son. He would say say to people, 'Yeah, that's The Captain and Tennille. I'm The Admiral!' just so people knew he was bigger and better than Daryl was.” You can LISTEN to this interview with singer TONI TENNILLE, author of TONI TENNILLE: A MEMOIR, by clicking the audio player above! If, like me, you are old enough to remember The Captain and Tennille as a top of the charts recording and touring sensation, you’ll remember Toni Tennile’s soaring vocals, her Southern charm and her big as all-outdoors smile. As for The Captain – Daryl Dragon, the former keyboardist for The Beach Boys – what you’ll recall of him was that he rarely spoke while glowering at his wife and everyone else most of the rest of the time. He always wore a hat, eventually hiding behind sunglasses, too. I spent a lifetime thinking it was an act. Toni Tennille spent a lifetime wishing it was an act. TONI TENNILLE podcast excerpt: "I have to point out that it's 'Do THAT to Me One More Time.' It's not 'Do IT to Me One More Time'! That's why lyrics are important. It's 'Kiss me.' And 'Say that to me again' -- instead of what other people may think!" Turns out, The Captain was a miserable wretch of a human being and spent decades treating his wife like crap. Reading Toni Tennille: A Memoir is a soul-crushing experience; turning each page you’ll find yourself screaming, “Toni! Get away from that bastard!” But as anyone who has ever suffered emotional abuse at the hands of a spouse knows, it’s not always easy to make a clean break. I’m glad I read Toni Tennile: A Memoir; I’m even happier to know that the subject of the book is finally free. Key interview moments: • 4:40 Toni Tennille describes her rough road with former husband Daryl Dragon -- The Captain in The Captain and Tennille -- but refuses to blame him or play the victim. Instead she blames his father, Academy Award-winning composer Carmen Dragon; • 23:45 Why has Toni Tennille dedicated "Muskrat Love" to former U.S. Secretary of State Dr. Henry Kissinger at every performance still 1974?; • 37:25 Toni clears the air about the title and content of the song "Do That to Me One More Time."
