It’s a deep dive episode into an absolute legend of music this week – the one, the only Dolly Parton.

The country pop musician and entertainer has written over 5,000 songs since she wrote her first song in 1959, and her status as a songwriter and artist has only grown since.

Andrea and Niall look back at the early years of Dolly, the hits, the pop crossovers, the songs, the legacy, the feminism, the collaborations. It’s Dolly the homemaker, heartbreaker, socially progressive, champion of the working class, philanthropist and political tightrope walker.

We had a LOT of fun with this!
