I agree with that Potato Salad rant. That stuff needs some good mustard in there.

[@user-ii3vn8tn3q]

And eggs.

[@hgfxjnn]

Pickle relish 😊

[@batteriesnotincluded4715]

And raisins!😂

[@MarioGMan25]

@@batteriesnotincluded4715 I do not agree with that personally but I can see the appeal. You need to have a very specific mood and taste in mind for that I would figure. That or at least finely chop them to the point of it basically becoming a powered spice or something...

Mustard, pickle relish, eggs. That dish better be bursting with those harmonizing flavors or I'm not touching it.

Dolly Parton is the Queen of Country and Western and she’s loveable with it.

[@Bizarro_world2.7]

With all due respect those huge knockers are legendary

[@RichardX1]

Dolly Parton is a living saint.

[@denniscannon1943]

Totally agree- that level of human compassion and forgiveness is unfortunately hard to find these days. After learning about this back-story, I realize Dolly could serve as an example of ethical behavior, to women and men, in both business and in life. And the immense level of talent on top of all of this? A saint, indeed.

[@IndrasChildDeepAsleep]

Western and country are different things and I just learned that

I lived in the same neighborhood as Porter n Dolly (iykyk) in Nashville back in the late 60's/early 70's. You'd see them at the grocery store as well as other celebs. Nashville used to be cool.

I never knew they did an episode with Kristoferson but for real he's one of my favorite super interesting celebrities.

[@memphistomlin8290]

Porter produced it first. Dolly took it to number 1 4x's. She didn't let Elvis record it because he wanted rights to it and she wasn't giving up her rights to it. Dolly still makes money ever time it's played. Weither it's her singing or Whitney Houston singing. She's made more than $20 million on just this song

[@rosegold973]

So I just briefly read up on it as I was in shock too that someone in their prime to go out like that. The accounts told by the only 2 witnesses suggest a much more sinister picture.

The Beatles actually wanted Sam to tour with them.

[@smithjedediah]

Sam Cooke covered "I Love You For Sentimental Reasons", but so did a lot of people, but he didn't write it. Nat King Cole probably had the most famous version. Just a minor uh...correction, sorry.

[@ronnastefan543]

I heard a totally different story about "Jolene" from Dolly in a documentary. It was about a woman bank teller that dealt with her husband one time, and she came up with the idea. Nothing happened in real life - just the idea for the lyrics.

Casey Wilson as Dolly Parton. The rest is implied.

No. Norma _Jeane_ Mortenson changed her name to _Marilyn_ Monroe. Norma Jean Beasler went by the name Norma Jean.

[@uuouuo5480]

Also, Norma Jean was the "girl singer" until 1967. Marilyn Monroe died in 1962. So.....

They need to make new episodes but with cannabis instead of alcohol.

😂why do it seem like all the inspirations come from jail? The Montgomery letter, Malcolm x, what else? Did Johnny Cash get inspired by jail too or did he inspire the inmates in jail?

Sentimental Reasons is a Nat King Cole song.......🙄 but it was covered by Sam

[@snakewhitcher4189]

I always thought "I Love You for Senimemtal Reasons" was a Nat King Cole song. That's a lie. I thought it was a Dean Martin song until a few minute ago. But I just looked it up and it's NKC. Unless the internet lied.

[@denniscannon1943]

I am happy to see these narrators enjoy the freedom to feel at ease while they relate the anecdotes of history. While alcohol is a deadly and highly addictive drug, which kills more people each year than all other drugs, at least these narrators have the freedom to adjust their consciousness in the way they choose fit. We may feel grateful that they have not chosen to influence their consciousness in a way that that would be illegal by selecting the wrong drug, a choice for which they would be not only widely condemned, but also quite likely imprisoned. Sobriety, most people come to realize, is the best option, though its taste is not so sweet when mandated by law, under threat of the loss of one's personal Liberty. 'We hold these truths to be self-evident, that all men are created equal, that they are endowed by their Creator with certain unalienable Rights, that among these are Life, Liberty and the pursuit of Happiness.'
