Transcript

SPEAKER_05 0:00

Ladies and gentlemen, we ask that you please take your seats at this time as the program will begin momentarily. Thank you. Uplifting the airways, one dimple at a time. It's time for the Dimple Report. News, laughs, and dimplified moments with your host, founder, and chief doubles officer of National Doubles Day, Graceful Grady. Remember, dimples are more than a trait. They're a reason to celebrate.

SPEAKER_04 1:05

I'm Grace BulGrady, founder of National Dimples Day, and welcome to another exciting episode of The Dimple Report, the podcast where we celebrate dimples, culture, entertainment, and the people making headline news around the world. We've got a great episode lined up today with poetry, inspiration, legendary names, and of course, an amazing dimple spotlight segment. And you already know how I start this podcast by sharing dimples and the headlines. Let's get into it. Seeing those two together again brought back memories of one of the biggest eras in hip-hop history. And yes, Dipples Nation. Trust me, my research team, me, myself, and I can verify it. Next up, Sasha Farber, the pro dancer known from dancing with the stars and rocking that signature cleft chin, has officially confirmed, ladies, that he and Janelle Parish are dating. According to People magazine, Janelle says Sasha is the sweetest and even has incredible cooking skills. Dibbles Nation sounds like somebody's winning both on and off the dance floor. Next up, he's in the news again. Now, I was told the police were called for crowd control at the Jacksonville Jaguars practice facility. I was also told on-the-scene news reporters were in helicopters, all trying to catch a glimpse of the chin-dimpled Trevor Larts, because it's reported his flow of hair may have finally met the scissors. Insiders are buzzing, and yes, the pun is intended that he chopped it for the 2026 NFL schedule drop. All I can say is stay tuned. And finally, global superstars, Madonna, Shakera, Shakera, and BTS, including Cheek Dimpled Star RM, have reportedly been announced for the World Cup halftime show. Dimples Nation, that could end up being one of the biggest halftime performances the world has ever seen. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, that's it for the dimples and the headlines. We will be right back. Hi, cute dimples.

SPEAKER_00 4:39

Is that your best pickup line?

SPEAKER_06 4:41

No pickup line, just complimenting your dimples. Did you know July 9th is National Dimples Day? Really? Yeah, they have a fun site and merchandise. Check it out. NationalDimplesday.com.

SPEAKER_08 4:55

SPEAKER_06 4:58

SPEAKER_11 5:04

Sure.

SPEAKER_04 5:07

Welcome back, everyone. In case you don't know, one of my biggest passions is poetry. I've always admired legendary voices like Langston Hughes, writers who could take emotion, pain, hope, and turn it into timeless art. That's one of the reasons why every halftime here on The Dimple Report, it becomes Dimple versus our celebration of poetry, creativity, and expression. Now, over the last few weeks, we've honored some incredible cleft chin legends. From Ted Turner to John Travolta, and before that, the historic military surgeon Dominic Jean Laroy. But this week, with poetry in the air and dimple versus waiting at halftime, it felt like this would be the perfect time to put a dimple spotlight on a female whose words changed the world. We will be right back.

SPEAKER_11 6:16

Oh darling, when you smile at me, there's a magic in the air, those little dimples on your cheeks I could follow anywhere that sweet cleft. So don't be late before the temple stuff.

SPEAKER_04 8:21

Today we celebrate a woman whose words have changed generations. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, the legendary Meyer Angelou. Known for her powerful voice, wisdom, storytelling, and yes, that unforgettable cleft chin. Maya Angelo, one of the most respected poets and authors in history, she rose from hardship and pain to become a global symbol of strength and dignity. Her groundbreaking autobiography, I Know Why the Caged Bird Sings, inspired millions around the world. She worked alongside civil rights leaders, spoke at presidential inaugurations, and reminded people everywhere to stand tall, speak boldly, and never let life silence their spirit. Maya Angelou didn't just write poetry, she made people feel seen. Her voice carried truth, courage, elegance, and hope. She showed the world that beauty is more than appearance. It's resilience, confidence, and the ability to rise again and again. And here, on the Demple Report, whenever someone weaves that kind of impact on culture, history, and humanity, we like to honor them the best way we know how.

SPEAKER_10 9:55

I don't know.

SPEAKER_04 9:56

I always dedicate a song to our Dimple Spotlight of the Week. With that said, ladies and gentlemen, from a special recorded live performance at the world famous Dimple University in Dimple Delphia, Pennsylvania. Here is Dimple Suave and the Dimplett.

SPEAKER_04 15:09

Welcome back, Dimple's Nation. From one world record of inspiration to another, it's time now for the Dimple Drop. Today we're talking about Womesa Galgi, the tallest living woman in the world and one of the most inspiring women on the planet. Womesa is from Turkey, and she became internationally famous after being officially recognized by Guinness World Records for her incredible height. Standing a little over seven feet tall, she immediately captured worldwide attention, appearing in interviews, documentaries, and news stories across the globe. But what really makes Wamesa special isn't just her height, it's her mindset. She was born with a rare condition called Weaver Syndrome, which affects growth and development. Instead of letting challenges define her, she turned her uniqueness into strength and inspiration. She became an advocate for self-acceptance, confidence, and embracing what makes you different. And yes, Dimples Nation, she also proudly rocks, you guessed it, Cheek Dimples. Oh yeah. Ladies and gentlemen, boys and girls, Romesa has shown the world that being different is not something to hide, it's something to celebrate. Whether it's your smile, your personality, your talents, or the features that make you stand out. Those differences can become your greatest power. From Turkey to worldwide recognition through Guinness World Records, Romesa Galgi continues to inspire millions just by being unapologetically herself. And that's exactly the kind of energy we celebrate here on the Dimple Report. We will be right back.

Diplos Nation, that was film and TV. Dimplified. But now, it's time to switch gears and head into the world of sports. You already know this segment is all about confidence, predictions, and picking stars who are ready to shine. And may I add as a disclaimer, just as a simple disclaimer, there are no steroids use, AI, nor insider information involved in my picks. With that said, welcome to fantasy.com. Dimput Draftee. And this week, I'm going with one of the biggest names in golf. Scotty Scheffler. That's right, Dimples Nation, the cheek Dimple superstar himself is my pick to take home the 2026 PGA Championship this weekend. Scotty's been dominating the golf world with calm focus, precision, and championship level consistency. When his game gets rolling, he's tough for anybody to catch. And with that pressure, rising right now and the spotlight getting brighter, I think Scotty's ready for another major moment. So, Dimples Nation, lock it in.
