WNYC Studios

This was the one that changed the world.

Blindspot, The Road to 9-11, is a co-production of the History Channel and WNYC Studios.

You can hear the full nine-episode podcast by searching the keywords Blindspot, all one word, and The Road to 9-11.

Our team includes Jenny Lawton, Ursula Sommer, Joe Plourde, Jennifer Gorin, and Michelle Harris.

The podcast recommendation is Dolly Parton's America.

This is on WNYC Studios, a deeply reported, genuine, moving look at why Dolly resonates across every kind of divide, political, generational, cultural.

One of the most re- best reviewed podcasts of the last few years, and a great listen even if you're not usually a country music person.

So th- th- that was Dolly Parton and how, how she made you laugh, made you smile, made you laugh, and was just a great person.

Love is like a butterfly.

Brought to you by Osm Audio, that's O-S-M Audio, and WNYC Studios.

We had production help from W. Harry Fortuna and original music from Alex Overington.

[gentle music] And huge thanks to the folks at Sony for allowing us to use some of Dolly's early music.

I know.

And Rebecca said this would be a good time to go back and listen to our classic rewind review from November 4th, 2019 of Dolly Parton's America from WNYC Studios and OSM Audio and host Jad Abumrad.

I think I want to listen to this podcast again, Kevin, this episode of our podcast, because, you know, Dolly Parton's America is a great reminder that Dolly Parton was beloved across the spectrum of culture, of politics, of everything.

And the podcast kind of digs into why.

Well, let's go back and have a listen.

Moving on.

WNYC Studios and Awesome, that's OSM Audio, are rolling out an ambitious nine-part series about an American icon.

In Dolly Parton's America, Radiolab host and creator Jad Abumrad explores the oversized reach of the perhaps underappreciated country music singer.

Thank you very much, Andrew.

For more on Dolly, I would recommend the 2019 podcast, Dolly Parton's America, from WNYC Studios, and also from our own Monocle on Culture podcast, episode 487 from back in 2021.

You're listening to The Globalist on Monocle Radio.

[upbeat music] Well, finally on today's show, school is nearing its post-summer return, in the Northern Hemisphere at least, and with that we wanted to shine a light on some different education practices and traditions around the world this week because Monocle's September magazine is all about education and life lessons as you prepare for a new school year and the return to work after a little break.
