Full Of It #287 - Dolly Parton
Added 2024-04-27 23:00:06 +0000 UTCDolly Parton is perhaps the most the internationally admired country singer in the history of the genre. With breasts as glorious as the sun over Tennessee, hair as high as Willie Nelson and the world's most endearing giggle, she's managed to cement herself as a cultural icon the likes of which we may never see again.

Loved this episode. I agree that Travelin’ Thru also rings as one of her best tunes. Very impressed you went the whole episode without a “Je suis une Dolly” joke!!!

Nova would make a great Dolly - big blonde hair, trashy makeup, sparkly? I would love to see it. On a side note, I’ve been catching up with podcasts and listened to an older one - I thought for a hot second it was Char doing the intro!!! So glad you’re letting your true dulcet tones shine 🧡🧡. Love you both

2024-05-02 19:35:32 +0000 UTCThere is a documentary that a young Graham Norton does, where he goes to Dollywood and while touring the gift shop, Dolly describes one of her own Christmas snowman ornaments as "a bunch of chickens shoving a hat up a duck's ass". It's at 20:10, absolute beauty of a clip Seen 'Graham Goes to Dollywood'?

2024-05-01 23:33:37 +0000 UTCI came to say the same as Maxi B’s comment- now you’ve hardwired Je Suis une Dolly into my brain EVERYTIME you said ‘Dolly’ my brain started the chorus from the beginning…. Which is far too much! Loved this episode. Love Dolly. Love you. Also- when Dolly was at Glastonbury (June 2014) I was watching at home on the telly and subjecting my (then 18month old) daughter to the experience… when Dolly came on my small human touched the telly and said ‘pretty’ with a big smile. It warmed my bitter, cold heart. So yes, Dolly has universal appeal to the young, the old and all us weirdos in between!
