SPEAKER_02 0:32

Oh, we do have somebody who texted. This is from 6252, and they said, good morning, everyone. Isn't the next tropical storm named Dolly? So I Googled it because I just wanted to confirm this. Because that seemed right, but I wasn't sure. And yes, it is, but that's just purely coincidence.

SPEAKER_01 0:49

Or it's gotta be the mildest storm known to mankind. It'll come through with a smile. I hope. I mean, you know, that's a weird prediction, but I I would hope that. Uh but man, you guys are great with the text. I'm not even lying about this. Uh 0808. So this is from Chris. Uh good everyone. Uh tough morning with Dolly, uh Dolly Parton. I wonder if she's up there having breakfast with Betty White right now. Just imagine the conversation. That's hilarious.

SPEAKER_02 1:15

That is. I was the one that broke the news to my family yesterday because we have a big family text message. And you know, whatever my parents are doing in retirement, not paying attention to the news.

SPEAKER_01 1:24

No, no, no, no, they're sitting in front of Fox News or CNN going, all right, let's get caught up on everything.

SPEAKER_02 1:29

And you know, the one of the first things that my dad said was the legends that he has remembered that has died in his lifetime. I mean, in our lifetime is um well, maybe not when did John Lennon die? Well anyway, here's Oh, I wasn't even alive then. Okay. So here's what my dad said. He goes, We've lost some really big greats. David Bowie, John Lennon, and now Dolly Parton. Like those are the three that really affect my dad, you know?

SPEAKER_01 1:53

That's a similar attack that uh 4093 said. Uh live in a time uh to have known some of the best music and actors of our time. You got Betty White, you got Dolly Parton, Robin Williams, Johnny Cash, just to name a few. And it is uh she uh I'll I'll be honest with you. I it's I got sad because uh I never knew how it would happen. I never knew if it would happen. I mean, obviously it won't at this point right now. Uh she was one of those people I always wanted to meet. No clue what I'd ever say to her. I know. Except, God, you're cool. Right? You know, like that would be my you know, and I it wasn't like I wanted an interview her or anything like that. I'm just like, I would have loved to have met her and just been like In her presence just a casual conversation, just in her presence, because she was that person, and I think she made so many people feel that way. Wow, so many people are feeling like they lost a part of their family. And and that's what's uh, you know, besides the accolades and all the writing of the music. Oh my god, that Broadway show is gonna sell out.

SPEAKER_02 2:51

Oh, I know.

SPEAKER_01 2:51

That thing's a minute away from starting, and that you won't be able to get a ticket forever.

SPEAKER_02 2:55

One of the things that I've never done and I've always wanted to do, but I would never have gone to Dollywood. Now you know it's gonna be insane.

SPEAKER_01 3:03

Uh yeah, that they're they're gonna do real well. There's gonna be a lot of people that are gonna connect to it. She will be one of the uh, let's say, icons of our time that will uh not be forgotten. A lot of times, you know, when someone passes, there's uh a bit of uh immediate, you know, attributes and conversations and that.

SPEAKER_02 3:22

Oh, we'll have conversations where we go, did that person die?

SPEAKER_01 3:25

Right, you know I don't think you have to Google it. They'll fade, you know, a little bit into uh we'll say they'll fade into memory. It's not like they're totally forgotten, but you know, until they pop up. I think Dolly's just gonna be one of those people that uh is gonna have more of a a forefront of in our memories because of the different things that she does. Do you know I didn't know this last night, and uh this was actually mentioned locally on ETM. Dolly years ago, now I'm gonna try to get this right. I I don't wanna I'm I'm trying not to screw this up. One of the charities she gave to uh dealt very closely with uh black women and uh and the struggles that they had gone through uh or or continue to, you know, and it was mentioned last night. Now, forgive me for not remembering every single detail. There's a lot of details about this story.

SPEAKER_02 4:12

Oh yeah.

SPEAKER_01 4:13

But it was definitely one of those things where it was like, oh, yet another thing she did. So she was literally everywhere doing something, and a lot of times just bringing joy by being where she was. And then I heard, you know, you start hearing the different songs she did. I forgot. Oh my god, I love this song from Dolly Burton.

SPEAKER_04 4:32

Here you come again. Just when I've begun to get myself together. You all threaten the door, just like you've done before, and wrap my heart round your little fingers. Here you come again. Just when I'm about to make it work without you.

SPEAKER_05 4:59

You look into my eyes and live a train eyes, and pretty soon I'm wondering how I can do this, and shake in me so body has a right to take it real.

SPEAKER_04 6:32

It's gonna be bummer again, go again.

SPEAKER_05 6:58

And here go.

SPEAKER_00 7:05

Yeah, she was just such a sweet soul. It's so sad. I feel like we're losing a national treasure. I love how she was always doing charity work and she just really gave back to the community and her presence, she's just so sweet and and anyone, you know, that knows her, she's just she's a really good hearted human being.
