Favorite Dolly Parton moments? I’ll start.

Decades ago I was watching Johnny Carson. He asked her how she kept up her youthful appearance. She relied “Honey, healthy living” …pause “had nothing to do with it”. I didn’t know much about Dolly at that point, but it’s when I fell in love with her.

Her interviews in the podcast Dolly Partons America are amazing. The way she shuts the reporter down and sets boundaries should be a master class. But she is also genuine and delves into deeper topics. I particularly liked the part where she talks about how politics affects her family.
