E92: Goodbye Dolly, Meta Settlement, and Prop. 47 Study w/ Asm. Jeff Gonzalez

We'll start with our clip of the week.

Something positive.

Well, actually, this is not positive.

This is very sad.

But the clip is positive.

Dolly Parton.

Goodbye to Dolly Parton.

She passed over the last week.

Were you a fan?

You

look at me as if I wasn't different.

You're so much older than me.

Yes, in fact, I grew up

on Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton.

My mom would play Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton all the time in the kitchen or in the living room or somewhere.

So it was a little bit of a hit.

One of my staff members, Frank, he was very, very... uh sad a little bit slow about it like it was bubbled up and then he was sad about it because he grew up on it so it was an emotional it's pretty tough yeah

it's definitely tough i got a little clip here see what you think of it yeah

The title, the name Jolene, there was a little girl when I was working with the Porter Wagoner Show back in the 60s and 70s, late 60s, early 70s.

There was a little girl at one of our shows and she was a little redheaded girl and she was pretty as she could be.

And she came up to get an autograph, and she said, would you sign it to Jolene? I said, oh, that's a pretty name.

I said, I bet you were named after your dad.

I bet his name's Joe.

She said, no, it's just Jolene.

I said, well, I love that name.
