Transcript
- 0:00Speaker 1: 93Q, Houston's country leader. Good morning. It's Riggs, Caitlin, and Erica.
- 0:04Speaker 2: It's not a good morning, actually.
- 0:05Speaker 3: It's not.
- 0:06Speaker 2: I mean, we have to say that because I think
- 0:08Speaker 2: it's part of our show, but it's not really a
- 0:10Speaker 2: good morning.
- 0:10Speaker 4: Good morning to everybody but the Grim Reaper.
- 0:13Speaker 1: Exactly. Except that guy, yes.
- 0:14Speaker 2: And the devil.
- 0:16Speaker 1: It's not even... Yeah, right.
- 0:19Speaker 3: Wow.
- 0:19Speaker 2: It feels like the devil's work, what happened yesterday, doesn't it?
- 0:22Speaker 1: It does a little bit, Caitlin. It does. Dolly Parton,
- 0:24Speaker 1: we lost her yesterday at the age of 80. uh,
- 0:27Speaker 1: iconic seems like even an understatement to say about somebody
- 0:30Speaker 1: like Dolly Parton, you know, it really does. But, um,
- 0:34Speaker 1: this morning we'll, we'll remember her. We have probably one
- 0:37Speaker 1: of the largest fans of Dolly Parton in, uh, the
- 0:40Speaker 1: universe in the, in the building with us this morning.
- 0:43Speaker 1: We could probably do, do you think you could do
- 0:45Speaker 1: a better deep dive on like a true crime case
- 0:47Speaker 1: or on the history of Dolly Parton, Caitlin?
- 0:49Speaker 2: Uh, well, that depends on what true crime case it is, but, uh,
- 0:54Speaker 2: You know, it's funny you ask that question because I
- 0:55Speaker 2: do think I love Dolly Parton deeply. And like, I
- 0:58Speaker 2: think I can give a lot of information about her,
- 1:00Speaker 2: but she was also such a private person that there's
- 1:02Speaker 2: so much information that we will just never know. And
- 1:06Speaker 2: that's kind of what made her larger than life in itself.
- 1:08Speaker 1: She felt so open, but so secret at the same time.
- 1:11Speaker 4: Isn't it crazy? Like how much she was able to
- 1:13Speaker 4: keep like to herself and the way she would take
- 1:15Speaker 4: off her wig and her makeup and just go around
- 1:18Speaker 4: like a normal person all the time.
- 1:20Speaker 1: The picture of her without makeup was wild. I think
- 1:22Speaker 1: it was Erica that showed us to me that one time.
- 1:25Speaker 4: You would never notice her unless she smiled or talked.
- 1:29Speaker 1: No, not at all. So we'll remember Dolly this morning.
- 1:33Speaker 1: You can remember Dolly this morning as well because you
- 1:35Speaker 1: should be a part of this as well. She was
- 1:36Speaker 1: a part of your life growing up listening to 93Q
- 1:38Speaker 1: and country music just in general, I'm sure. So if
- 1:41Speaker 1: you'd like to reach out, we'd love to talk to
- 1:43Speaker 1: you as well. Plus, you can also talk back to
- 1:45Speaker 1: us on the 93Q app. You tap the little microphone
- 1:47Speaker 1: if you can't call in. can send us a note
- 1:50Speaker 1: that way and we can play you.
- 1:51Speaker 2: Back do we know what she died from we do
- 1:54Speaker 2: i'm happy you asked erica because it kind of came
- 1:56Speaker 2: out later in the day yesterday um that she did
- 1:59Speaker 2: in fact pass away from cancer and oh no yeah
- 2:03Speaker 2: that wasn't in the original video that was put out
- 2:05Speaker 2: by her nephew had recorded that video and uh it
- 2:08Speaker 2: didn't come out until a few hours later that it
- 2:10Speaker 2: was a can they didn't say what type of cancer
- 2:12Speaker 2: but they said a brief battle with cancer poor dolly
- 2:15Speaker 2: i know I.
- 2:16Speaker 1: Wonder when did that start? You think that was the
- 2:18Speaker 1: genesis to that was back in October when her sister
- 2:20Speaker 1: made that statement, when they kind of found out about it?
- 2:22Speaker 2: I would say so, because, you know, we talked about
- 2:25Speaker 2: this a lot yesterday and everybody trying to scramble and
- 2:27Speaker 2: figure out what could have happened. Because, yes, Dolly Parton
- 2:31Speaker 2: was 80 years old. And that does seem pretty, you know,
- 2:33Speaker 2: that's getting up there. But for somebody like Dolly Parton,
- 2:36Speaker 2: we had just heard from her days ago. I think
- 2:37Speaker 2: it was in the RICO report. She was saying, like,
- 2:39Speaker 2: I still have stuff I want to do. I'm still
- 2:41Speaker 2: I just need to take some I need a rest,
- 2:43Speaker 2: but I still have stuff I want to do. And
- 2:46Speaker 2: then we found out that it was cancer. We're like, man,
- 2:48Speaker 2: was that what her sister was talking about last year
- 2:50Speaker 2: when she said to please pray for her? Maybe that's
- 2:53Speaker 2: when she had originally gotten the diagnosis and they decided
- 2:56Speaker 2: at that time she didn't want to share that.
- 2:58Speaker 1: With the world.
- 2:59Speaker 5: Yeah.
- 2:59Speaker 1: I wonder if she didn't find it out then and
- 3:01Speaker 1: then kick it in a hike. She did so much
- 3:03Speaker 1: after that. October announcement.
- 3:05Speaker 2: It would seem as though she had some plans in
- 3:07Speaker 2: place to part this world. And maybe that was just
- 3:10Speaker 2: always what she had in place. But her nephew recording
- 3:13Speaker 2: that video, that was obviously done ahead of time. I mean,
- 3:16Speaker 2: that was like a fully produced, like he was in
- 3:18Speaker 2: a studio, you know, did like a full produced piece
- 3:21Speaker 2: for that. And then she had actually, it was her
- 3:25Speaker 2: ask that to honor her. What she wanted was for
- 3:28Speaker 2: people to tag her on social media, go to her website,
- 3:32Speaker 2: and give back to her foundation to help kids continue
- 3:34Speaker 2: to read and a few other foundations that she has
- 3:36Speaker 2: linked to her website.
- 3:38Speaker 4: So obviously she has Dollywood. You know, my family loves
- 3:40Speaker 4: it over there. But she also has these shows. Like
- 3:42Speaker 4: there's a pirate show. There's like a hoedown type of show.
- 3:45Speaker 4: But the pirate show comes with food, like her food,
- 3:48Speaker 4: like her fried chicken, potatoes. You guys, this is one
- 3:51Speaker 4: of the best. It's a water show, by the way.
- 3:53Speaker 4: It's a whole pirate water, like acrobatic.
- 3:56Speaker 1: Is that like Dollywood?
- 3:57Speaker 4: No, this is actually in several different parts along the South,
- 4:00Speaker 4: like South Carolina, over in Florida. It is one of
- 4:03Speaker 4: the best shows Mark and I have ever been to.
- 4:06Speaker 4: And I know she has a Broadway show coming out
- 4:07Speaker 4: and stuff, but it is awesome. Like if you can
- 4:10Speaker 4: go to South Carolina or wherever you're going and look
- 4:12Speaker 4: at the Pirate Voyage, I recommend it so highly. The
- 4:16Speaker 4: food is amazing.
- 4:17Speaker 2: And that's big coming from a Diz nerd like you.
- 4:20Speaker 3: Oh, yeah.
- 4:20Speaker 4: If I'm going to go to Dollywood and I'm going
- 4:22Speaker 4: to go see a show, you know that it's big.
- 4:24Speaker 1: It better be big, yes. We got to play Dolly here.
- 4:27Speaker 1: We're not going to play a different song.
- 4:28Speaker 2: I think we should play Dolly on Morning Long. I mean,
- 4:31Speaker 2: obviously not every single song, but I think we should
- 4:33Speaker 2: definitely fit Dolly in several times today.
- 4:35Speaker 1: We should do it right now. Where do you want
- 4:36Speaker 1: to start with? Or where do you want to go?
- 4:40Speaker 2: That's tough. Do we want to be sad? Do we
- 4:43Speaker 2: want to be upbeat?
- 4:45Speaker 1: I saw somebody yesterday say, Dolly wrote 9 to 5
- 4:47Speaker 1: so I could drink from 5 to 9. 9 to
- 4:48Speaker 1: 5 is a.
- 4:50Speaker 4: Good one.
- 4:50Speaker 6: Yeah. Yeah.
- 4:53Speaker 2: We can do 9 to 5 as people are getting
- 4:54Speaker 2: up and get ready for work.
- 4:55Speaker 1: In the morning.
- 4:56Speaker 4: I've had Islands in the Stream in my head all
- 4:59Speaker 4: day and all night.
- 5:00Speaker 1: Let's do Islands in the Stream.
- 5:01Speaker 2: Do we have it in there?
- 5:02Speaker 1: Yes, we do.
- 5:04Speaker 2: Kenny Rogers and Dolly Parton.
- 5:06Speaker 4: They're so cute together.
- 5:07Speaker 2: I know.
- 5:07Speaker 6: We do.
- 5:09Speaker 7: Get it.
- 5:10Speaker 1: RIP, Dolly. It's 93Q, Houston's country leader. It's Riggs, Caitlin,
- 5:14Speaker 1: and Erica. It's 93Q, Houston's country leader. Good morning. It's Riggs, Caitlin,
- 5:19Speaker 1: and Erica. Dolly Parton. Not a good morning. Did I
- 5:23Speaker 1: say good morning again? I'm sorry. It's by force of habit.
- 5:25Speaker 1: It's by force of habit. What's that?
- 5:28Speaker 2: I think we should do nine to five here.
- 5:30Speaker 1: Oh, that's fair. That's fair. That's fair. We can do that.
- 5:33Speaker 1: One of our biggest songs, obviously.
- 5:35Speaker 2: We're just openly discussing the songs we want to play
- 5:37Speaker 2: and talk about all morning long here on 93Q because
- 5:40Speaker 2: that's what we're doing to celebrate Dolly today.
- 5:41Speaker 1: And we're all flying by the seat of the pants
- 5:43Speaker 1: because it came out of nowhere yesterday. We're like, wait, wait, what?
- 5:46Speaker 1: Excuse us?
- 5:47Speaker 4: I was just having a regular old day, and all
- 5:49Speaker 4: of a sudden, my son Ricky, who's over in Japan,
- 5:51Speaker 4: he said that his sergeant came up, and he goes, hey, Rick,
- 5:54Speaker 4: are you having a nice day today? And Ricky's like, yeah,
- 5:56Speaker 4: I am. And he goes, well, I'm about to ruin it.
- 5:58Speaker 4: Dolly Parton died. And Ricky's like, why would you tell
- 6:01Speaker 4: me that? She's a treasure.
- 6:03Speaker 2: I don't think there was a single person I saw
- 6:05Speaker 2: on the Internet today, no matter where they came from,
- 6:08Speaker 2: what they were into, what age that was not devastated
- 6:12Speaker 2: by the loss of Dolly Parton yesterday. And you see
- 6:15Speaker 2: things like obviously celebrities pass away all the time. They're
- 6:18Speaker 2: real people just like us. But you see the president
- 6:20Speaker 2: issuing the flag to fly it halfway.
- 6:23Speaker 1: Half staff.
- 6:24Speaker 2: Huge for a celebrity. You see the, was it the
- 6:27Speaker 2: Empire State Building that lit up pink last night for
- 6:30Speaker 2: Dolly Parton?
- 6:31Speaker 1: Are you serious?
- 6:32Speaker 2: Just so many national, major national signs that we are
- 6:38Speaker 2: all mourning Dolly Parton together as a nation. And you
- 6:42Speaker 2: just don't see that a lot from country artists.
- 6:44Speaker 1: There's a lot of polarizing things in our world and
- 6:47Speaker 1: in our life and polarizing figures and people that either
- 6:49Speaker 1: really love them or really hate them. A lot of
- 6:52Speaker 1: people hate a lot of people. But I don't think anybody,
- 6:55Speaker 1: I've never met or heard a single bad word ever,
- 6:59Speaker 1: ever about Dolly Parton. Not once. Not even like a
- 7:01Speaker 1: weird tabloid trash story that was fake, a one-off. It
- 7:05Speaker 1: was like, I don't think anybody had even the balls
- 7:06Speaker 1: to do a fake mean story about Dolly Parton.
- 7:09Speaker 2: Why would you want to?
- 7:10Speaker 1: You wouldn't because it didn't exist.
- 7:12Speaker 4: It's so funny how it doesn't matter where they came from.
- 7:14Speaker 4: Everybody's like, so Mark's family is on their way to
- 7:16Speaker 4: Destin right now, and it's Dee Dee and Rupert and
- 7:19Speaker 4: Nina and all. Everybody's in there, and they're listening to
- 7:22Speaker 4: Dolly Parton. Everybody's singing. It doesn't matter how old you are.
- 7:24Speaker 4: You know Dolly Parton songs.
- 7:26Speaker 2: Yeah, and she was larger than life, literally, in many ways,
- 7:31Speaker 2: and she would probably tell you that.
- 7:33Speaker 1: Sure would. So I guess the song 9 to 5,
- 7:37Speaker 1: one that a lot of people know, but there's the
- 7:39Speaker 1: story behind 9 to 5.
- 7:40Speaker 2: Yeah, actually, we have Dolly here, and I believe it's
- 7:43Speaker 2: Jane Fonda in this clip, and they're talking about how
- 7:46Speaker 2: 9 to 5 the song came to be. So I
- 7:50Speaker 2: say we just play that clip, let Dolly tell them
- 7:51Speaker 2: in her own words.
- 7:52Speaker 8: I hadn't wanted to do any movies until A Right
- 7:54Speaker 8: Thing come along, because I'm not an actress. I've never
- 7:56Speaker 8: taken an acting lesson in my life, and you'd have
- 7:58Speaker 8: to be something that was pretty much close to my personality.
- 8:02Speaker 8: But Jane Fonda came up with this idea to do
- 8:05Speaker 8: 9 to 5 about women in the workplace.
- 8:07Speaker 9: Driving home, turn on the radio, Two Doors Down is playing,
- 8:11Speaker 9: and I suddenly get an image of Dolly Parton sitting
- 8:14Speaker 9: at a typewriter. And I thought, that would be something
- 8:18Speaker 9: to have Dolly Parton in her first movie. Dolly Parton
- 8:23Speaker 9: had to be a secretary in 9 to 5.
- 8:25Speaker 3: When Jane came to me with it, I said, well,
- 8:29Speaker 3: that'll only do it if I can write the theme song.
- 8:34Speaker 8: What a way to make a living.
- 8:37Speaker 3: Getting by is all taking and no giving.
- 8:41Speaker 8: They just use your mind and they never give you credit.
- 8:46Speaker 1: It's enough to drive you crazy in you.
- 8:51Speaker 4: I just saw it in a Netflix show, Younger. I
- 8:54Speaker 4: just saw them all singing this song.
- 8:55Speaker 2: It's funny you say that, Erica, because I was just
- 8:57Speaker 2: going to say, how many times have we heard 9
- 8:59Speaker 2: to 5 just sprinkled into shows and commercials?
- 9:03Speaker 4: Every time you're mad about work, you're like, working 9
- 9:05Speaker 4: to 5.
- 9:06Speaker 1: Our listener, Ashley Q, that's her theme song every time
- 9:08Speaker 1: she calls.
- 9:09Speaker 7: It is.
- 9:11Speaker 4: Also, Dolly says she's not an actress, but she did
- 9:15Speaker 4: so good in that one and Best Little... Blank in Texas.
- 9:18Speaker 4: I'm not going to say it. I can't say it.
- 9:20Speaker 8: I know.
- 9:20Speaker 2: I was wondering that too.
- 9:22Speaker 4: But she was such a good actress.
- 9:24Speaker 2: Well, she was such a character in her own right.
- 9:26Speaker 2: You know, I think when she said that line earlier, like,
- 9:29Speaker 2: I'm not an actress. I kind of was thinking, well,
- 9:31Speaker 2: you are in a way. I mean, she was authentic
- 9:34Speaker 2: to who she was, but she always presented like this
- 9:37Speaker 2: larger than life superstar.
- 9:38Speaker 4: So my kids have only seen like Dolly Parton now,
- 9:41Speaker 4: you know? And so I was like, she was, I mean,
- 9:43Speaker 4: she's beautiful now, obviously, but she was.
- 9:46Speaker 1: Stunner.
- 9:47Speaker 4: When she was younger. So I was showing Timmy pictures
- 9:49Speaker 4: and he was like, what? She's gorgeous. I was like,
- 9:54Speaker 4: I know.
- 9:54Speaker 1: She's always been beautiful.
- 9:55Speaker 4: The dimples and just her face is perfect.
- 9:57Speaker 2: It's so funny because there's pictures of her from like
- 9:59Speaker 2: the 80s. 80s and 90s where she's got more of
- 10:01Speaker 2: the mama style wig, you know?
- 10:03Speaker 10: Yeah.
- 10:03Speaker 2: And I thought she looked younger at, you know, in
- 10:06Speaker 2: her 70s and 80s than she did back then because
- 10:10Speaker 2: she changed up the wig style, you know?
- 10:12Speaker 4: But when she has like hair like you, like those
- 10:14Speaker 4: pictures with the like headband and stuff, oh my God.
- 10:17Speaker 1: Dolly. Dolly. It's a nine to five, man. Let's do it.
- 10:20Speaker 1: The whole song.
- 10:20Speaker 2: Get your workday started right.
- 10:22Speaker 10: Banger.
- 10:22Speaker 2: Here we go. Make your coffee.
- 10:24Speaker 1: Let's get going, ladies. It's Riggs, Caitlin, and Erica on 93Q.
- 10:27Speaker 1: They should be texting the word music right now to 52140.
- 10:31Speaker 1: That's how you get to the Pasadena Livestock Show and
- 10:33Speaker 1: Rodeo to see Aaron Watson, September 25th. Music.
- 10:37Speaker 9: Music.
- 10:38Speaker 1: Text it to 52140. Saluting... the great Dolly Parton all
- 10:43Speaker 1: morning with Riggs, Caitlin and Erica here on 93Q, remembering
- 10:46Speaker 1: her through your voice as well. I mean, we've talked
- 10:48Speaker 1: a lot about how we feel about her. Caitlin's a
- 10:51Speaker 1: huge fan. We've talked about her all morning, but what's
- 10:54Speaker 1: your story behind Dolly? What's stood out to her? What's
- 10:58Speaker 1: meant a lot to you?
- 10:59Speaker 2: I think everybody's a huge fan of Dolly. Yes, I
- 11:02Speaker 2: love Dolly and I've always openly really loved her, but
- 11:05Speaker 2: she's not mine to claim. She's everybody's and that's what
- 11:08Speaker 2: that's what makes her so special. That's what makes her
- 11:10Speaker 2: Dolly Parton, you know?
- 11:11Speaker 1: Yeah, she's everybody. So what's your Dolly connection? 713-370-0929. Kurt's
- 11:17Speaker 1: on the phone from the morning mob. Good morning, Kurt.
- 11:19Speaker 11: I was able to get y'all off speaker. I'm sitting
- 11:21Speaker 11: to load.
- 11:21Speaker 1: Kurt, good morning.
- 11:23Speaker 10: Morning.
- 11:23Speaker 2: I know you have some words to say about Dolly.
- 11:25Speaker 2: How are you feeling this morning?
- 11:28Speaker 3: Brokenhearted.
- 11:29Speaker 1: Yeah, that's one way to put it.
- 11:30Speaker 11: Coated many colors, it means a lot to me. My
- 11:34Speaker 11: parents were both very poor growing up. My grandparents didn't get,
- 11:38Speaker 11: running water and sewage in their house until like 72, 73.
- 11:44Speaker 11: And so both my parents became very successful. My father
- 11:47Speaker 11: was an attorney and my mother's an engineer.
- 11:50Speaker 1: Wow.
- 11:50Speaker 2: That's incredible.
- 11:51Speaker 3: Good for you.
- 11:52Speaker 12: I love that.
- 11:53Speaker 11: They grew up like Dolly did, poor and made something
- 11:55Speaker 11: of themselves.
- 11:57Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 11:57Speaker 1: Anybody that did that, that kind of rags to riches
- 11:59Speaker 1: story really resonated with Dolly. Look at me. Absolutely. I
- 12:03Speaker 1: took what I had and I polished that coal until
- 12:05Speaker 1: it turned into a diamond.
- 12:06Speaker 2: Yep.
- 12:08Speaker 1: Kurt, thanks for calling this morning, sir.
- 12:10Speaker 11: Y'all have a great day.
- 12:11Speaker 1: You as well. So you can call 713-370-0929. Or you
- 12:17Speaker 1: can also, if you have the 93Q app, there's a
- 12:18Speaker 1: little microphone. You can tap that. It's like a talkback feature.
- 12:21Speaker 1: Just send us a voice memo and we can play
- 12:23Speaker 1: those back as well. If you have a message to
- 12:25Speaker 1: send to us or a memory you have of Dolly,
- 12:27Speaker 1: we'd love to hear it.
- 12:28Speaker 2: I like to think that Dolly's listening, too. We're broadcasting
- 12:31Speaker 2: it out there, and she's listening from somewhere, you know?
- 12:33Speaker 1: I'm sure that she is. Our transmissions go to the heavens.
- 12:36Speaker 1: It is radio.
- 12:37Speaker 5: 713-370-0929.
- 12:40Speaker 1: You know, we're one of the only things that you
- 12:42Speaker 1: can hear in outer space, radio. Like, someone in a
- 12:44Speaker 1: distant galaxy, far, far away on another planet, will hear
- 12:48Speaker 1: this broadcast right now, somewhere.
- 12:51Speaker 2: I just hope that.
- 12:52Speaker 1: Somewhere. I hope it's Dolly.
- 12:53Speaker 11: Dolly.
- 12:54Speaker 2: from heaven or wherever you believe that Dolly Parton is
- 12:58Speaker 2: right now, right? I hope that she's seeing the true
- 13:02Speaker 2: impact that she left on people. I think she felt it,
- 13:05Speaker 2: and I think she always knew it.
- 13:06Speaker 1: How can she not? She's on everybody's news feed. She's
- 13:08Speaker 1: on every TV screen. She's on every phone right now.
- 13:11Speaker 1: She's on every radio station.
- 13:13Speaker 2: Literally, I was just scrolling and saw the official Empire
- 13:16Speaker 2: State Building, and they had posted a video of them
- 13:18Speaker 2: lighting the Empire State Building up pink last night. That's
- 13:21Speaker 2: so beautiful. It's so beautiful. And I'm thinking New York
- 13:25Speaker 2: City is celebrating the life of Dolly Parton last night,
- 13:29Speaker 2: and the nation is. It's just– I hope she knows it.
- 13:33Speaker 1: She knows it, and we're going to celebrate it with
- 13:35Speaker 1: you this morning, 713-370-0929, with Riggs, Caitlin, and Erica, celebrating
- 13:40Speaker 1: Dolly Parton all morning long on 93Q. It's 93Q, Houston's
- 13:44Speaker 1: country leader. Good morning, Riggs, Caitlin, and Erica. I think
- 13:47Speaker 1: we should make, by the way, Caitlin Can't Lose should
- 13:49Speaker 1: be all Dolly Parton questions. Heck yeah. Oh, it better be. Yeah,
- 13:52Speaker 1: we should start working on that. If you think you
- 13:54Speaker 1: can beat Caitlin in Dolly Parton trivia.
- 13:56Speaker 2: Good luck, you won't.
- 13:57Speaker 4: No one's going to call.
- 13:59Speaker 1: Get signed up to play at QMorningShow.com. Well, you can
- 14:02Speaker 1: still get something for playing.
- 14:03Speaker 4: They get a prize anyway, right?
- 14:03Speaker 1: Yeah, you do. Yeah, but you can try.
- 14:05Speaker 2: Should we just say top of the morning to you
- 14:07Speaker 2: instead all day today?
- 14:08Speaker 1: I guess top of the morning feels okay. But even
- 14:10Speaker 1: that feels too jaunty for the hole in our soul
- 14:13Speaker 1: that I feel like is left.
- 14:15Speaker 4: The hole in our soul.
- 14:16Speaker 1: It is what it is now. Dolly Parton left us
- 14:18Speaker 1: yesterday at the age of 80, and we're not sure
- 14:20Speaker 1: how we feel about it.
- 14:21Speaker 4: I thought she was going to be so much older.
- 14:22Speaker 4: But once her husband died, too, I was like, oh, no.
- 14:25Speaker 3: Yeah.
- 14:25Speaker 4: Because she was so close to him.
- 14:27Speaker 1: She was really crushed when that happened.
- 14:29Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 14:29Speaker 2: You know, Dolly Parton was notoriously very private with her
- 14:32Speaker 2: private life. Like she made an effort throughout her entire
- 14:36Speaker 2: career to keep her private life very private, which is
- 14:39Speaker 2: why you just didn't hear a lot about it. I mean,
- 14:40Speaker 2: we knew she had her husband and adored him. They
- 14:42Speaker 2: were married forever until his passing.
- 14:44Speaker 4: But does anybody even know what he looked like? Like,
- 14:45Speaker 4: even when I look at pictures of him, I still
- 14:47Speaker 4: can't like, yeah, a few pictures.
- 14:50Speaker 2: Um, and she talks to about how, like, She's done
- 14:52Speaker 2: some interviews before where she's talking about her husband and saying,
- 14:55Speaker 2: you know, it takes a very special man to be
- 14:58Speaker 2: with a woman like me and to support a woman
- 15:00Speaker 2: like me and understand. And he was never interested in
- 15:04Speaker 2: trying to share the spotlight with me or take anything
- 15:06Speaker 2: from me. He truly wanted to support me and help
- 15:09Speaker 2: me grow throughout my entire career.
- 15:11Speaker 4: I always thought like watching her and Kenny Loggins together,
- 15:13Speaker 4: like that undeniable chemistry, like how her husband could be
- 15:16Speaker 4: watching that being like, what's happening?
- 15:19Speaker 2: Kenny Rogers?
- 15:20Speaker 4: I said Kenny Loggins.
- 15:22Speaker 1: You did, and I went, wait a minute, I think
- 15:23Speaker 1: she meant Rogers. Kenny Loggins would be great, though, by
- 15:26Speaker 1: the way. That would be great. No, I love Kenny Rogers.
- 15:28Speaker 4: Kenny Rogers.
- 15:29Speaker 1: But you can share your memories with us as well
- 15:31Speaker 1: this morning, because Dolly was a big part of your life. 713-370-0929.
- 15:33Speaker 1: Who's this? It's Nugent from Conroe and the Morning Mob.
- 15:39Speaker 1: What's up, Michelle?
- 15:40Speaker 4: I'm good.
- 15:40Speaker 3: How are you?
- 15:41Speaker 1: We're great, considering.
- 15:43Speaker 2: I'm not great. Well, I mean, I'm here, you know.
- 15:47Speaker 1: I woke up another day, but it's a sad day.
- 15:51Speaker 1: There's a big hole in the world right now.
- 15:54Speaker 12: Yes, there is.
- 15:55Speaker 10: And in my heart as well. So I have a
- 15:57Speaker 10: very touching.
- 15:58Speaker 13: Story about Dolly.
- 15:59Speaker 2: We'd love to hear it.
- 16:01Speaker 10: My ex-father-in-law passed away suddenly a few years ago, and
- 16:06Speaker 10: he absolutely adored Dolly Parton, so much so that we
- 16:11Speaker 10: actually buried him with a photo of her in his casket.
- 16:15Speaker 2: Oh, I love that.
- 16:15Speaker 12: And so when we.
- 16:16Speaker 10: Heard the news yesterday, we instantly all just were like,
- 16:21Speaker 10: he's finally up there getting to meet his woman.
- 16:23Speaker 4: He's so happy right now.
- 16:25Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 16:25Speaker 1: Can you imagine him getting the news? Wait, she's coming?
- 16:28Speaker 1: We get to meet Dolly now?
- 16:29Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 16:30Speaker 1: That's great, Michelle.
- 16:31Speaker 2: You know, she's such a hoot. I imagine her being like,
- 16:34Speaker 2: I was waiting on you.
- 16:38Speaker 1: I knew you'd want to meet me.
- 16:38Speaker 2: I knew you'd want to meet me.
- 16:40Speaker 1: I like that. I saw that picture you were bearing with.
- 16:42Speaker 2: I heard you want to meet me.
- 16:44Speaker 1: Thanks for calling this morning.
- 16:45Speaker 13: You're the best.
- 16:46Speaker 7: Love you.
- 16:47Speaker 1: Good morning. Who's this?
- 16:48Speaker 7: Hey, good morning, guys. Jeff from Clear Lake. How are you?
- 16:50Speaker 1: Hey, Jeff.
- 16:51Speaker 7: Morning, morning.
- 16:52Speaker 2: You got some words about Dolly this morning?
- 16:54Speaker 3: I do.
- 16:55Speaker 7: I remember growing up in upstate New York. I don't know,
- 16:58Speaker 7: probably late 70s. My mom would always, she's one of them,
- 17:03Speaker 7: she's always up in the morning. Loves life real awake
- 17:07Speaker 7: in the morning like I am. And she'd bounce around
- 17:09Speaker 7: the house cooking. And she's always singing either Johnny Cash or...
- 17:13Speaker 7: Dolly Parton or George Jones.
- 17:15Speaker 1: Oh, my.
- 17:16Speaker 7: It's about back timers.
- 17:19Speaker 1: Thank you for calling this morning, Jeff. Good to hear
- 17:20Speaker 1: from you, sir. 93Q, who's this?
- 17:23Speaker 12: Good morning.
- 17:23Speaker 9: It's Chuck.
- 17:24Speaker 12: Guys, I need you all to do me a favor.
- 17:27Speaker 13: Yes, sir.
- 17:27Speaker 1: What's up?
- 17:28Speaker 14: We're not saying goodbye.
- 17:29Speaker 10: Nope.
- 17:30Speaker 12: We're saying we'll see you later.
- 17:31Speaker 1: That's right.
- 17:32Speaker 2: Let me tell you what. If I get to heaven...
- 17:35Speaker 2: and somebody tells me that I have to get in
- 17:38Speaker 2: line or something to see Dolly Parton, everybody else better
- 17:41Speaker 2: move out of the way.
- 17:42Speaker 12: Move.
- 17:43Speaker 7: You got to remember, once we're there, we're all equals.
- 17:47Speaker 12: I mean, she was immortal here, but once we're there,
- 17:50Speaker 12: we're in his house.
- 17:53Speaker 2: I like the way you put that, so I can
- 17:54Speaker 2: just sit down and have a coffee with Dolly on
- 17:57Speaker 2: a corner somewhere.
- 17:58Speaker 1: Yes, on a patio somewhere. Absolutely, without a doubt. On
- 18:02Speaker 1: a cloud patio somewhere. A cloud patio with a spritzer. Chuck,
- 18:05Speaker 1: you got it right. Thanks for saying that this morning.
- 18:07Speaker 1: We appreciate you calling.
- 18:08Speaker 6: Y'all have a great day, guys.
- 18:09Speaker 1: A patio cloud. That'd be fun. I would imagine heaven
- 18:13Speaker 1: would have some sort of outdoor dining area, alfresco.
- 18:17Speaker 2: Oh, my gosh. Heaven is so Dolly Parton themed when
- 18:19Speaker 2: you really think about it, like clouds and rainbows and
- 18:22Speaker 2: all the things that feel good.
- 18:24Speaker 1: I loved how Dolly would collaborate with so many people,
- 18:27Speaker 1: and you would see when Dolly would collaborate with somebody
- 18:29Speaker 1: like Reba, just... the magic that would happen having two
- 18:32Speaker 1: icons together on the same track.
- 18:34Speaker 2: Yeah, you know, and this is an iconic song for
- 18:37Speaker 2: Reba McEntire, first recorded with, I think, Linda Davis was
- 18:41Speaker 2: maybe who she first did this with. She released this
- 18:44Speaker 2: version with Dolly Parton in 2021. It's Does He Love
- 18:48Speaker 2: You on 93Q. Ariel and Brad went on their first
- 18:51Speaker 2: date after meeting on Bumble to a Strohs game. I
- 18:54Speaker 2: don't know how that could go wrong. Anytime we're at
- 18:56Speaker 2: Astro's games, we're having a good time, right?
- 18:58Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 18:58Speaker 2: Except, obviously, something happened because Ariel is not hearing back
- 19:02Speaker 2: from Brad. We're going to get him on the line
- 19:04Speaker 2: now with second date update.
- 19:07Speaker 1: Looking for Brad?
- 19:08Speaker 14: Yeah, this is Brad.
- 19:10Speaker 11: Who's this?
- 19:10Speaker 1: Hey, Brad, it's Riggs. I'm Riggs. This is Caitlin and Erica.
- 19:13Speaker 1: We're with 93Q here in Houston, the country station.
- 19:16Speaker 7: Ah. Yeah.
- 19:17Speaker 12: Okay, yeah.
- 19:18Speaker 1: You're on Second Date Update. Have you heard of that before?
- 19:21Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 19:21Speaker 14: Yeah, I have.
- 19:23Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 19:23Speaker 3: Okay.
- 19:24Speaker 1: He's cutting right to the chase with you, man.
- 19:25Speaker 14: You're calling for me?
- 19:27Speaker 8: Yep.
- 19:27Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 19:28Speaker 6: Okay.
- 19:28Speaker 14: So let's see. Who would have called? I'm guessing it was, what, Ariel?
- 19:36Speaker 4: You already know.
- 19:36Speaker 1: Ding, ding. Winner, winner. It was.
- 19:39Speaker 14: Yeah, that's who it was, Ariel.
- 19:41Speaker 2: Yes, we are calling about Ariel. Y'all went to an
- 19:43Speaker 2: Astros game, both baseball fans. Y'all had a great time,
- 19:46Speaker 2: I would assume. What went wrong?
- 19:48Speaker 14: Just, you know, she was an absolute embarrassment and total maniac.
- 19:54Speaker 14: There was that.
- 19:56Speaker 4: What do you mean maniac?
- 19:58Speaker 14: OK, so we both go to a game. We both
- 20:01Speaker 14: love baseball. And she's what I would consider a rabid fan.
- 20:07Speaker 14: She was out of control, seriously out of control the
- 20:10Speaker 14: whole game, standing and screaming at every guy coming up
- 20:14Speaker 14: to bat, making all these bizarre, distracting noises. And at
- 20:18Speaker 14: first everyone's laughing, you know, because they think, you know,
- 20:21Speaker 14: ha ha ha. Very funny until they realize, oh, this
- 20:24Speaker 14: is going to happen the entire game. Oh, this is
- 20:27Speaker 14: going to get annoying. There's a crazy lady here. Honestly,
- 20:32Speaker 14: I think people were concerned for their well-being.
- 20:35Speaker 2: I feel like this is exactly when we asked Ariel
- 20:38Speaker 2: earlier if anything embarrassing or crazy had happened at the game. Like,
- 20:41Speaker 2: we ran through a list with her of asking her.
- 20:43Speaker 1: We asked if there were fights in the bathroom or anything.
- 20:46Speaker 14: Anything.
- 20:46Speaker 2: She's like, no, just good old-fashioned baseball fun. I'm guessing
- 20:49Speaker 2: that's not the truth.
- 20:50Speaker 13: Yeah, that's her.
- 20:51Speaker 14: Yeah, no, she thought it was normal. I got up
- 20:53Speaker 14: to go to the bathroom at one point and was
- 20:55Speaker 14: standing at the urinal, and some guy leaned over to
- 20:58Speaker 14: ask me, hey, dude, you're with that crazy lady?
- 21:02Speaker 1: You called her the crazy lady?
- 21:03Speaker 7: Yeah.
- 21:04Speaker 14: Yeah, he said his kids and his wife were all
- 21:06Speaker 14: there for family night. She was shouting out like out
- 21:10Speaker 14: of line stuff.
- 21:11Speaker 11: Oh, wham, wham, Brad.
- 21:13Speaker 13: Was Brad uncomfortable with a little friendly competition?
- 21:16Speaker 6: Welcome to sports.
- 21:17Speaker 13: And who cares about the guy in the bathroom? Don't
- 21:19Speaker 13: bring your kids out in public if you can't handle
- 21:21Speaker 13: what a stranger might say.
- 21:23Speaker 1: Oh, boy.
- 21:25Speaker 13: That's Ariel.
- 21:26Speaker 1: She's been listening under the line, by the way.
- 21:28Speaker 14: Yeah, I see that. Yeah, I don't know where to
- 21:33Speaker 14: go with this.
- 21:33Speaker 13: Yeah, well, I don't really know either. Listening to you
- 21:36Speaker 13: talk is like giving me a little * * * * vibe.
- 21:38Speaker 13: Did you even grow up playing sports or anything competitive?
- 21:43Speaker 3: Hello, are you all good?
- 21:44Speaker 2: I mean, we're good. Are you good?
- 21:48Speaker 1: Are you okay?
- 21:49Speaker 14: No, she's not. She is clearly unwell.
- 21:52Speaker 12: Wow.
- 21:52Speaker 13: No, I'm clearly out of your league.
- 21:54Speaker 4: All right, so this is obviously not going to work.
- 21:56Speaker 12: Yeah.
- 21:57Speaker 1: So as you both know, this is second date update.
- 21:59Speaker 1: So we've got to have both of you on the
- 22:00Speaker 1: line now and try to work this out. Brad, I'm
- 22:02Speaker 1: assuming there's probably no coming back from this with Ariel.
- 22:05Speaker 13: Brad, how about there's no coming back from this for me? Like,
- 22:08Speaker 13: I don't need a little boy like Brad, like dragging
- 22:11Speaker 13: me down a game.
- 22:12Speaker 4: Okay. Well, honestly, he hung up anyway. Like, he was done.
- 22:16Speaker 1: Yeah. Why do you keep calling him a bitch? What's
- 22:18Speaker 1: that about anyways?
- 22:20Speaker 4: Why?
- 22:21Speaker 13: I'm just calling it like I see it.
- 22:23Speaker 2: I imagine that was probably what was going on at
- 22:25Speaker 2: the game, too.
- 22:26Speaker 1: Probably.
- 22:26Speaker 4: I mean, if that's going on right now.
- 22:28Speaker 1: All right. Well, Ariel, sorry we didn't make it work out,
- 22:31Speaker 1: but thank you for your time.
- 22:32Speaker 5: Whatever.
- 22:32Speaker 3: There we go.
- 22:34Speaker 1: I'm done with her.
- 22:34Speaker 2: Oh, she's gone.
- 22:35Speaker 1: Thank God, that poor guy. 93Q.

- 27:19Speaker 1: See? There you go. So you get something. But you
- 27:22Speaker 1: did not win $ 1, 000 of Caitlyn's money. You have to
- 27:24Speaker 1: tell everybody why.
- 27:27Speaker 7: Caitlyn can't lose.
- 27:29Speaker 6: Nope.
- 27:29Speaker 1: She cannot.
- 27:30Speaker 4: That is.
- 27:30Speaker 1: 628 wins. If you think you can take her down,
- 27:34Speaker 1: get signed up to play at QMorningShow.com. We play every
- 27:36Speaker 1: morning at this time. It's Caitlin Cantlieu's on 93Q.
- 27:38Speaker 9: Marissa.
- 27:39Speaker 2: Marissa, I know you said you had been crying all
- 27:41Speaker 2: night and you had puffy eyes. And I hate to
- 27:44Speaker 2: do this to you because I was trying to avoid
- 27:45Speaker 2: this song all morning long. But somebody called in and requested.
- 27:49Speaker 1: Pam from our morning mob sent us a message. She
- 27:51Speaker 1: wanted to hear it.
- 27:53Speaker 2: So here we go. We can all cry together.
- 27:55Speaker 1: Which one is this one? Brad Paisley and Dolly Parton?
- 27:57Speaker 2: Yeah, when I get where I'm going.
- 28:00Speaker 1: It's 93Q.
- 28:00Speaker 4: Oh, I know.
- 28:02Speaker 2: Thanks for playing.
- 28:03Speaker 6: Thank you.
- 28:05Speaker 1: 93Q, Houston's country leader. It's Riggs, Caitlin, and Erica celebrating
- 28:10Speaker 1: the life of Dolly Parton all morning long on the
- 28:12Speaker 1: show and on 93Q. I will say something that it's
- 28:17Speaker 1: a little embarrassing, but I think that a lot of
- 28:20Speaker 1: people have thought the same thing.
- 28:21Speaker 2: I already know what you're going to say.
- 28:23Speaker 1: For a long time, When I was younger, just a
- 28:27Speaker 1: wee little lass, I thought that Whitney.
- 28:29Speaker 2: Houston— You would have been a wee little lad, by
- 28:31Speaker 2: the way.
- 28:31Speaker 1: A wee little lad, yes.
- 28:32Speaker 2: Yeah, unless something changed.
- 28:34Speaker 1: Was that what it is? A lass and lad?
- 28:36Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 28:37Speaker 3: Oh, whoops.
- 28:37Speaker 1: I don't know my old English.
- 28:38Speaker 2: Lass would be me and Erica.
- 28:39Speaker 4: Is that what it is? Talk about it.
- 28:41Speaker 1: Yeah, I didn't talk about this. I thought that Whitney
- 28:45Speaker 1: Houston and I Will Always Love You was just a
- 28:48Speaker 1: massive song. Whitney Houston was on top of the world.
- 28:51Speaker 1: And Kevin Costner and her did that movie. I was like, wow,
- 28:53Speaker 1: Whitney Houston wrote the greatest song of all time. This
- 28:55Speaker 1: is huge. And for the longest time, I thought that
- 28:58Speaker 1: that was a Whitney Houston song. And then one day,
- 29:01Speaker 1: reality hit me in the face with a shovel and
- 29:03Speaker 1: a wig. And a wig.
- 29:05Speaker 4: And said, nuh-uh, you were wrong.
- 29:06Speaker 2: And said, hey, sit down a second. I got something
- 29:08Speaker 2: to tell you.
- 29:09Speaker 1: Very politely said, shut up. And said something like that, Caitlin, right?
- 29:12Speaker 2: Yeah, this is one of my favorite stories to tell
- 29:16Speaker 2: people because just like you, Riggs, a lot of people
- 29:19Speaker 2: have heard I Will Always Love You, the Whitney Houston version,
- 29:22Speaker 2: and thought, wow, this is one of the best songs
- 29:24Speaker 2: of all time. And I'll agree. It's one of the
- 29:25Speaker 2: best songs of all time.
- 29:26Speaker 1: Oh, for sure. Oh, and she crushed it too, yeah.
- 29:28Speaker 2: Whitney's version of it is one of the best versions
- 29:32Speaker 2: of all time. Erica, you and I were talking earlier,
- 29:34Speaker 2: and even you were saying that Dolly said, I made
- 29:37Speaker 2: way more money off of Whitney Houston's version of that.
- 29:40Speaker 2: song than my own version of that song.
- 29:42Speaker 4: Are you mad about the popularity? Whitney taking your song
- 29:45Speaker 4: and she's like, No, you know how much money I
- 29:47Speaker 4: made from Whitney?
- 29:48Speaker 2: Are you crazy? Yes, but you know, the lore behind
- 29:50Speaker 2: I Will Always Love You is that not only did
- 29:52Speaker 2: Dolly Parton record that song, but she wrote that song,
- 29:55Speaker 2: which is why she made so much money off of it,
- 29:57Speaker 2: by the way, as a songwriter once it went, you know,
- 29:59Speaker 2: gigantic with Whitney Houston.
- 30:01Speaker 6: But, um.
- 30:02Speaker 2: Dolly Parton actually wrote that song as a farewell to
- 30:05Speaker 2: her business partner. So if you know anything about Dolly
- 30:08Speaker 2: Parton getting into the music industry, it was like when
- 30:10Speaker 2: she was a young teen, like 10, 11. Would you
- 30:12Speaker 2: even consider that a young teen?
- 30:13Speaker 4: Not a child.
- 30:14Speaker 1: She was on the radio for the first time when
- 30:16Speaker 1: she was 10 years old in 1956. Yeah, yeah.
- 30:20Speaker 2: And she had a business partner and a mentor, Porter Wagner,
- 30:23Speaker 2: another country music icon. And at the time she had
- 30:28Speaker 2: got to a certain point in her career where she said,
- 30:30Speaker 2: I'm ready to do this on my own. And she
- 30:31Speaker 2: was still very young. This was in, I think like 19,
- 30:34Speaker 2: the early 1970s. And she went to Porter and basically
- 30:38Speaker 2: asked for his, um, release.
- 30:42Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 30:43Speaker 2: But more his blessing on like, Hey, I'm going to
- 30:45Speaker 2: do this either way. I would love to have your
- 30:48Speaker 2: blessing as my mentor, my business partner. And there was
- 30:51Speaker 2: a little bit of pushback, but in the end it
- 30:52Speaker 2: ended up happening. And she actually wrote, I will always
- 30:55Speaker 2: love you. to honor her relationship, a business relationship, with
- 31:01Speaker 2: Porter Wagner, which is not what you think about when
- 31:03Speaker 2: you listen to the song I Will Always Love You.
- 31:05Speaker 7: Not at all.
- 31:05Speaker 2: So it was such a huge song. Not only did
- 31:08Speaker 2: Whitney Houston record that song and make it huge, but
- 31:10Speaker 2: Elvis Presley at one time wanted to record that song.
- 31:13Speaker 4: Oh, my gosh.
- 31:14Speaker 2: Yeah, here's Dolly telling the story.
- 31:16Speaker 3: Elvis' manager wanted to have the publishing on that song,
- 31:19Speaker 3: and I wouldn't allow it because it was my most
- 31:22Speaker 3: important copyright. It broke my heart because Elvis didn't get
- 31:26Speaker 3: to sing it. But I had to hold on to it.
- 31:29Speaker 3: Elvis loved this song. In fact, Priscilla had told me
- 31:32Speaker 3: that when she and Elvis were leaving the courthouse after
- 31:34Speaker 3: they divorced, he was singing that to her walking out.
- 31:37Speaker 3: So she said he did love it.
- 31:39Speaker 2: Can you imagine Elvis Presley singing that song to Priscilla
- 31:43Speaker 2: coming out the courthouse? I have chills everywhere.
- 31:45Speaker 1: I can hear Elvis singing the song. Me too. I
- 31:47Speaker 1: can imagine it happening. We all love you.
- 31:51Speaker 2: Did you like that, Priscilla?
- 31:52Speaker 1: Did you like that?
- 31:53Speaker 7: Bye-bye.
- 31:56Speaker 2: Ah, anyway, we love you, Dolly.
- 31:58Speaker 1: Very great story behind the song. So we should play
- 32:00Speaker 1: it and honor her all morning long.
- 32:02Speaker 13: Yeah.
- 32:04Speaker 2: This is my favorite version of I Will Always Love You.
- 32:07Speaker 2: Whitney did it good, but Dolly did it the best.
- 32:09Speaker 2: It's Dolly Parton on 93Q.
- 32:11Speaker 1: It's 93Q, Riggs, Caitlin, and Erica. Second date update coming
- 32:14Speaker 1: up here in a few minutes. All morning long, we've
- 32:16Speaker 1: been paying tribute to Dolly Parton, who we lost yesterday
- 32:19Speaker 1: at the age of 80. And we've heard pretty much
- 32:22Speaker 1: every Dolly Parton song, but there is one song that
- 32:24Speaker 1: no one has heard.
- 32:26Speaker 13: No one.
- 32:27Speaker 2: Maybe the production team on the song.
- 32:29Speaker 1: Yeah, maybe. But that's about it.
- 32:31Speaker 4: That's crazy, you guys.
- 32:33Speaker 1: And nobody's going to hear it for a long time either.
- 32:35Speaker 2: A long, long time. You know what? I hope we're
- 32:38Speaker 2: all around to hear it. But I think was it
- 32:41Speaker 2: on Jimmy Fallon that she first announced that she has
- 32:45Speaker 2: something extra secret in the works?
- 32:47Speaker 1: Yeah, she's got a song that she's buried in a vault.
- 32:49Speaker 3: That's the truth. No, seriously.
- 32:52Speaker 8: When we.
- 32:53Speaker 6: We do a lot of things at Dollywood, and one.
- 32:55Speaker 3: Year we thought about that. They asked me if I
- 32:58Speaker 3: would write a song that nobody would ever hear, I'll
- 33:01Speaker 3: be dead, gone. Well, I might not be, because I'll
- 33:03Speaker 3: be 99, you know me. I might still be hopping around.
- 33:07Speaker 1: Anyway, I wrote a song.
- 33:14Speaker 3: And I put it in the box to be open,
- 33:16Speaker 3: and I even put, at that time, there was a
- 33:18Speaker 3: CD player, and the Ways and Say and what we
- 33:21Speaker 3: were doing with our music at that time. Left all
- 33:23Speaker 3: the instructions and here's how you can play this.
- 33:26Speaker 1: I swear.
- 33:27Speaker 3: And so I don't know what they'll do with it.
- 33:29Speaker 3: But I have regretted that because it was a really
- 33:31Speaker 3: good song.
- 33:38Speaker 2: How precious that Dolly Parton wrote directions on how to
- 33:43Speaker 2: work the CD player.
- 33:44Speaker 1: Just in case.
- 33:45Speaker 2: You know, there's something really poignant about what she says
- 33:48Speaker 2: in that clip. And that's, you know, that she had
- 33:50Speaker 2: intentionally put the song away for a time when she
- 33:53Speaker 2: was no longer here. And I think the date on
- 33:55Speaker 2: that song that it's set to be released is like 2045.
- 33:59Speaker 2: And then she makes a joke about living to be 99,
- 34:02Speaker 2: which I think we all hope to see. But it
- 34:05Speaker 2: goes to show that choosing a date that far away,
- 34:09Speaker 2: Dolly still had so much in her left to give.
- 34:12Speaker 2: She certainly did not expect to go at 80, and
- 34:15Speaker 2: I don't think any of us did.
- 34:17Speaker 1: She didn't stop all the way up until the end.
- 34:18Speaker 1: She was going hard with the museum, a Broadway show.
- 34:22Speaker 1: The gas station.
- 34:23Speaker 4: I mean, she was working.
- 34:24Speaker 1: The jean lines, the Jolene jeans.
- 34:25Speaker 2: A new hotel that's opening up. Like she just, she
- 34:28Speaker 2: didn't stop. And a large part of that was because
- 34:30Speaker 2: she wanted so badly to build a legacy for her
- 34:32Speaker 2: family because she didn't grow up with a lot of
- 34:35Speaker 2: the stuff that she had later in life. So amen
- 34:38Speaker 2: to that, Dolly.
- 34:39Speaker 1: You did it. Rest in peace, Dolly. We're celebrating her
- 34:41Speaker 1: all day long on 93Q. Don't you worry. Welcome this
- 34:44Speaker 1: morning to the show for Second Date Update, RJ. RJ,
- 34:48Speaker 1: good morning. Welcome to the show. Thanks for being here.
- 34:50Speaker 12: Hey, good morning, guys. Thanks for having me.
- 34:52Speaker 1: Of course. Now tell us, how did you meet Micah?
- 34:56Speaker 12: So we actually met on Plenty of Fish.
- 34:58Speaker 1: All right.
- 34:59Speaker 12: Yeah, I've been on Plenty of Fish for a while,
- 35:03Speaker 12: and I had gone on a few dates. I didn't
- 35:06Speaker 12: really have any matches, like real matches in person, but
- 35:09Speaker 12: everything ended amicably and kind of agreed with people that
- 35:14Speaker 12: we weren't really a fit. So, uh, when, when I
- 35:16Speaker 12: came across Micah, we had just really, really great conversation.
- 35:20Speaker 12: We were really hitting it off. The vibe was, was awesome. And, um,
- 35:24Speaker 12: we decided to, you know, finally get together and, and
- 35:27Speaker 12: go out.
- 35:28Speaker 2: Okay. Tell us about getting together. What was this, uh,
- 35:30Speaker 2: what was the date like?
- 35:32Speaker 12: Yeah, so we went to Papadeau for some seafood. I know, cliche,
- 35:37Speaker 12: but we were both craving it. So, you know, we
- 35:42Speaker 12: had a great meal, awesome time. Afterwards, we went to
- 35:45Speaker 12: a barcade since we both like share the same interest
- 35:49Speaker 12: for video games and, you know, it's kind of like
- 35:51Speaker 12: having a good time. So yeah.
- 35:52Speaker 4: A bar arcade. I just got it. It's like a
- 35:54Speaker 4: bar and an arcade.
- 35:55Speaker 1: Oh, it's so fun.
- 35:56Speaker 10: Oh, my God.
- 35:57Speaker 4: That sounds like a great time.
- 35:58Speaker 12: It's actually really fun and a great place for, I
- 36:00Speaker 12: would say, a first date because, you know, it's engaging and,
- 36:04Speaker 12: you know, it's fun.
- 36:05Speaker 4: If it was so fun, what do you think could
- 36:07Speaker 4: have changed the mood? Like, did anything happen? Does anything
- 36:10Speaker 4: sound out to you?
- 36:11Speaker 12: Um, well, so I would say the only thing that
- 36:13Speaker 12: I noticed was that she was into the old school,
- 36:16Speaker 12: like Nintendo console that they had set up there. And, um, I,
- 36:21Speaker 12: I found the, this, this game golden tea game. Um,
- 36:25Speaker 12: and we kept, you know, kind of, we kept playing
- 36:27Speaker 12: games and whatnot. And we, we seem to both be
- 36:30Speaker 12: into our own little game zone.
- 36:32Speaker 4: Yeah.
- 36:33Speaker 12: We kind of both were doing our own thing. She
- 36:35Speaker 12: seemed to really be into it, so I kind of
- 36:38Speaker 12: let her be. And then I went over to check
- 36:40Speaker 12: up on her, and she was just, like, gone.
- 36:43Speaker 1: Was she going to, like, the bathroom or go outside
- 36:45Speaker 1: or something?
- 36:47Speaker 12: No, just gone. Like, I called her, went straight to voicemail.
- 36:51Speaker 12: I texted her, and she said, I'm sorry. She said,
- 36:55Speaker 12: I'm fine. I went home and then nothing like no
- 36:58Speaker 12: other response after that. I tried calling once more, a
- 37:00Speaker 12: couple of texts unanswered. You know, I didn't want to
- 37:03Speaker 12: seem like pressed or weird. So I just thought it
- 37:07Speaker 12: was really ironic. We were having such a good time.
- 37:10Speaker 12: And then for her to just disappear like that. So, yeah,
- 37:14Speaker 12: I mean.
- 37:15Speaker 1: We can see if we can get some answers for it.
- 37:17Speaker 1: Does that sound good, RJ?
- 37:18Speaker 12: Yeah, that would be ideal. I mean, if you guys
- 37:19Speaker 12: could help me, this would be, this would, you know,
- 37:22Speaker 12: give me some relief.
- 37:23Speaker 2: We'll do that coming up with second date update.
- 37:25Speaker 1: So RJ and Micah went out for some seafood, papadoos.
- 37:28Speaker 4: Nice.
- 37:29Speaker 1: Then afterwards.
- 37:30Speaker 4: Papadoos is papadoes.
- 37:31Speaker 1: Papadoes.
- 37:33Speaker 2: Papa D's.
- 37:34Speaker 1: Call it what you will. They went out for a
- 37:36Speaker 1: great seafood dinner, though, and then they went to a
- 37:38Speaker 1: barcade to play some video games. But all of a sudden,
- 37:42Speaker 1: Micah disappeared from the barcade. Where did she go? The
- 37:45Speaker 1: Runaway Bride. Let's find out what happened next with 93Q' s
- 37:48Speaker 1: Second Date Update.
- 37:51Speaker 7: Hello?
- 37:51Speaker 2: Hi, may I please speak with Micah?
- 37:53Speaker 6: This is Micah. Are you Caitlin?
- 37:56Speaker 4: Oh, my God.
- 37:58Speaker 13: Oh, my God.
- 37:59Speaker 6: I listen to you every morning on the app. This
- 38:01Speaker 6: is so crazy.
- 38:03Speaker 2: Micah, I take... Hi. I usually don't get this kind
- 38:07Speaker 2: of reaction. This is so nice. Yes, it's Riggs, Caitlin,
- 38:11Speaker 2: and Erica. All three of us are here.
- 38:13Speaker 1: Yeah, this is awkward, Micah. You're on second date update
- 38:16Speaker 1: this morning.
- 38:17Speaker 12: Shut up.
- 38:18Speaker 1: Wait, wait, wait, wait.
- 38:19Speaker 12: Who?
- 38:20Speaker 4: Who?
- 38:21Speaker 12: No, no, no.
- 38:23Speaker 6: Is it.
- 38:23Speaker 4: Oh, my God.
- 38:25Speaker 6: Is this about RJ?
- 38:26Speaker 4: See, you are so smart. You love us. You know
- 38:30Speaker 4: what's going on. So we're just trying to find out
- 38:32Speaker 4: why you didn't call him back after your whole barcade date,
- 38:35Speaker 4: because it sounds like he really likes you and he
- 38:37Speaker 4: wants another shot. So we kind of just wondering what happened.
- 38:40Speaker 6: Oh, my God.
- 38:40Speaker 1: All right.
- 38:41Speaker 6: Well, we went out for dinner and we went to
- 38:45Speaker 6: seafood at Papa Do's, which is.
- 38:47Speaker 12: I love Papa Do's.
- 38:48Speaker 6: But anyway, I was digging him at first. I mean,
- 38:51Speaker 6: the conversation was cool and we were having fun. But
- 38:54Speaker 6: then the whole thing just flipped once we went to
- 38:57Speaker 6: the bar, the barcade. So we get there and he
- 39:00Speaker 6: just beelines for the golden tea game. I mean, it
- 39:04Speaker 6: was fine at first, you know, but then it just
- 39:07Speaker 6: felt like he was on a date with that game
- 39:09Speaker 6: and not with me anymore.
- 39:11Speaker 2: OK, he did say that y'all were both in the zone, though.
- 39:14Speaker 2: He said you were on like the old school Nintendo.
- 39:17Speaker 2: He was playing Golden Tee. And, you know, that happens.
- 39:20Speaker 2: My husband gets like that when he's gaming, too, like
- 39:22Speaker 2: just totally zoned out. Is that is that maybe you
- 39:26Speaker 2: guys were both just having a good time?
- 39:28Speaker 6: Look, we were both playing games. he was like next
- 39:32Speaker 6: level like every time I tried to talk to him
- 39:35Speaker 6: it was like He wasn't even in the same room
- 39:38Speaker 6: with me. I asked him twice if he wanted a
- 39:41Speaker 6: refill on his drink because he had nothing in his
- 39:44Speaker 6: cup anymore. And he just didn't even respond. It was
- 39:47Speaker 6: like I was invisible. And this went on. And, oh,
- 39:50Speaker 6: and he was playing with this other guy. And he
- 39:53Speaker 6: would talk to him. It was like they were having
- 39:55Speaker 6: the time of their lives. I just felt like he
- 39:58Speaker 6: completely forgot that he was on a date with me.
- 40:01Speaker 6: It was so ridiculous, you guys. So I freaking left.
- 40:05Speaker 4: Let me just tell you, Micah, that is not how
- 40:07Speaker 4: RJ explained it to us. Do you mind if we
- 40:09Speaker 4: bring him on?
- 40:11Speaker 1: Yeah.
- 40:12Speaker 13: Yes, go ahead.
- 40:12Speaker 1: That's RJ.
- 40:13Speaker 7: Go ahead.
- 40:14Speaker 6: Oh, my gosh.
- 40:15Speaker 12: I mean, do you know how much money I won
- 40:16Speaker 12: on that last game and the pressure I was under?
- 40:19Speaker 12: We literally had just bet double or nothing. I was
- 40:22Speaker 12: down two strokes and got a double eagle on the
- 40:24Speaker 12: next hole, and I ended up winning $ 40 from that dude.
- 40:26Speaker 1: Wow.
- 40:27Speaker 12: $ 40. You were playing this with a stranger, too?
- 40:30Speaker 13: Seriously?
- 40:31Speaker 6: Yeah. You were ignoring me for $ 40? Annabelle, you're a stranger.
- 40:36Speaker 12: Literally, that paid for our drinks. You didn't even call
- 40:39Speaker 12: me back. So I feel like at least I earned
- 40:42Speaker 12: that money.
- 40:43Speaker 6: Dude, you are such a child. Do you even hear
- 40:47Speaker 6: yourself right now? Wait, wait, is this a setup? Am
- 40:50Speaker 6: I being pranked right now? Because this is what it
- 40:53Speaker 6: feels like. This whole date was such a joke, and
- 40:56Speaker 6: now you're calling 93Q to get me to call you back?
- 41:00Speaker 6: This whole thing is just laughable.
- 41:02Speaker 13: I'm sorry.
- 41:03Speaker 6: I don't want to go out with you again.
- 41:04Speaker 13: Guys, can I just?
- 41:06Speaker 6: Can I go now? Because there's no way I have time.
- 41:08Speaker 12: Why couldn't you just say that at the date then?
- 41:11Speaker 12: Jesus Christ, like ignoring people isn't the answer, sweetheart. Like
- 41:15Speaker 12: all you have to do is say I'm not feeling
- 41:17Speaker 12: this and leave. Like you ghosted me like a child.
- 41:20Speaker 6: Dude, I couldn't even even said it to you because
- 41:22Speaker 6: you were ignoring everything I said. Like I wasn't even
- 41:25Speaker 6: in the room. I mean, you were in that game.
- 41:28Speaker 6: You weren't even blinking. It was like you were in
- 41:31Speaker 6: another dimension. I don't have the time or the bandwidth
- 41:35Speaker 6: to date a child, and I'd really like to go.
- 41:37Speaker 6: I really love y'all's show. You do a great thing,
- 41:42Speaker 6: and I'm not mad at you, okay?
- 41:44Speaker 10: Yay!
- 41:45Speaker 2: Thank you.
- 41:45Speaker 6: I have no time for someone like RJ. I need
- 41:49Speaker 6: to date a man, not.
- 41:50Speaker 13: A man-child, okay?
- 41:52Speaker 12: As rude as not calling someone back or giving them
- 41:55Speaker 12: the courtesy of I'm not into you, even in the
- 41:57Speaker 12: text message, that's rude.
- 41:59Speaker 14: RJ.
- 41:59Speaker 12: And if I don't say something, who will?
- 42:01Speaker 4: Okay, well, first of all, she hung up already. Second
- 42:04Speaker 4: of all, you cannot go on a date and completely
- 42:06Speaker 4: ignore somebody.
- 42:07Speaker 2: That's rude.
- 42:07Speaker 1: No, and third of all, if you want to play
- 42:08Speaker 1: Golden Tee, call me. I'm down. I would love to
- 42:10Speaker 1: play Golden Tee and drink beers. Let's go.
- 42:12Speaker 4: You're always trying to get friends.
- 42:13Speaker 13: I know.
- 42:13Speaker 3: You know what?
- 42:14Speaker 12: Sounds like a date, man.
- 42:15Speaker 2: He does need guy friends.
- 42:16Speaker 1: I do.
- 42:17Speaker 4: He will call you back, too.
- 42:18Speaker 1: Mm-hmm. 100%.
- 42:19Speaker 12: And I'm sure you won't ghost me.
- 42:22Speaker 1: I did it, you guys. I did it. I did it.
- 42:24Speaker 3: What?
- 42:25Speaker 1: Well, we got Pasadena Rodeo tickets coming up here in
- 42:27Speaker 1: about seven minutes, but I was able to find a
- 42:29Speaker 1: way to connect the dingus of the day to Dolly Parton.
- 42:32Speaker 12: Yes.
- 42:32Speaker 2: Let's hear it.
- 42:33Speaker 1: Here we go.
- 42:34Speaker 2: It's the dingus.
- 42:35Speaker 3: Yeah, dingus.
- 42:36Speaker 1: It's the dingus of the day.
- 42:38Speaker 8: Something stupid.
- 42:39Speaker 1: Dingus. We got to go across the pond for this
- 42:49Speaker 1: one to jolly old England.
- 42:51Speaker 2: Jolly old England to find a reference to Dolly Parton's
- 42:54Speaker 2: nine to five.
- 42:54Speaker 1: I did.
- 42:55Speaker 2: Yes, she was worldwide.
- 42:57Speaker 1: A 37 year old drug dealer is behind bars after
- 43:00Speaker 1: police busted him growing pot growing operation inside of his home.
- 43:06Speaker 1: So they said that there were a bunch of suspicious
- 43:08Speaker 1: account deposits made to his bank account. And neighbors called
- 43:12Speaker 1: and said that they kept hearing loud music coming from
- 43:15Speaker 1: a greenhouse behind his house. What did they keep hearing
- 43:19Speaker 1: over and over? What song on repeat?
- 43:21Speaker 2: Yes. As you should, sir.
- 43:26Speaker 1: Apparently this dingus was doing like. lip syncing style videos
- 43:30Speaker 1: to this song nine to five so it'd be him
- 43:33Speaker 1: singing nine to five and then he'd flip the camera
- 43:35Speaker 1: around yes and then flip the camera around and it's
- 43:37Speaker 1: just his complete pot operation right in front of him
- 43:41Speaker 1: just totally outing himself on his social media yes.
- 43:45Speaker 2: That's hilarious i mean he was working nine to five
- 43:47Speaker 2: he was probably longer what a way to make a
- 43:49Speaker 2: living illegally in jolly old england so now he's uh
- 43:53Speaker 2: serving some time of course He will be doing five
- 43:56Speaker 2: years and eight months in prison because of that, among
- 43:59Speaker 2: other things, the drug trafficking, the money laundering, and.
- 44:02Speaker 1: All that stuff.
- 44:03Speaker 4: Dang it.
- 44:03Speaker 10: When did this story come out?
- 44:05Speaker 1: This was, I want to say, in 20... When was this?
- 44:10Speaker 2: The only reason I'm asking is because I just want
- 44:12Speaker 2: to make sure that Dolly knew this story before she passed.
- 44:16Speaker 1: May of this year.
- 44:17Speaker 2: I hope she got to know that story because she
- 44:19Speaker 2: would have got a kick out of that.
- 44:20Speaker 1: She absolutely would have. So he was just growing marijuana
- 44:23Speaker 1: in his backyard.
- 44:24Speaker 2: To my song, 9 to 5, what a way to work.
- 44:27Speaker 1: What a way to make a living. How's it cut?
- 44:30Speaker 4: Eminem paid one of the best tributes to Dolly Parton
- 44:33Speaker 4: with what he said, and I'll tell you about that
- 44:34Speaker 4: in just a second. I know you're thinking, what, did
- 44:36Speaker 4: you say Eminem? Yeah, Eminem. First, let me just tell
- 44:39Speaker 4: you about Dolly Parton. Obviously, we learned that she passed
- 44:41Speaker 4: away yesterday after a brief battle with cancer. Just like
- 44:45Speaker 4: she was hush-hush in her real life, Even in her passing,
- 44:48Speaker 4: her family hasn't released what kind of cancer it was.
- 44:52Speaker 4: But there was someone on the inside who said that
- 44:54Speaker 4: she had lost all her hair prior to passing away
- 44:57Speaker 4: and that she knew that it was the end. And
- 45:00Speaker 4: she talked about it with everybody. Like she knew a
- 45:03Speaker 4: few months ago that, you know what, this is going
- 45:05Speaker 4: to be it, guys.
- 45:06Speaker 2: Oh, that's so heartbreaking.
- 45:08Speaker 4: I know. Why would you tell me that? She did
- 45:10Speaker 4: have her wigs.
- 45:11Speaker 1: She did.
- 45:11Speaker 4: She always had her wigs, though. So, you know, it's
- 45:13Speaker 4: probably easier for her now. She doesn't have to worry about,
- 45:16Speaker 4: you know. Any hair, I'm trying to think of a
- 45:17Speaker 4: bright side because this is just so sad.
- 45:20Speaker 1: It's hard to think of a bright side today, really.
- 45:21Speaker 1: She was our bright side.
- 45:23Speaker 13: She was.
- 45:23Speaker 4: This is a really strange coincidence, but you know how
- 45:26Speaker 4: they decide, like, hurricane names decades in advance, right?
- 45:29Speaker 6: Yeah.
- 45:30Speaker 4: The next hurricane or tropical storm is set to be
- 45:33Speaker 4: named Dolly.
- 45:34Speaker 2: You better be nice to us, Dolly.
- 45:36Speaker 4: Isn't that crazy? Because, you know, she's just passing away,
- 45:39Speaker 4: so a lot of people are going to think, like, oh,
- 45:41Speaker 4: they named it after her. No, this was already, like,
- 45:43Speaker 4: done decades ago.
- 45:44Speaker 2: That's crazy. But also I hope it's not like a
- 45:46Speaker 2: hurricane that really just is really hard on everyone. I
- 45:49Speaker 2: feel like she'll take care of everybody.
- 45:51Speaker 1: I'm just going to water your plants a little bit.
- 45:52Speaker 1: That's all we're going to do.
- 45:53Speaker 4: We'll take that. We'll take that any day.
- 45:55Speaker 13: Thank you.
- 45:56Speaker 4: So Eminem was talking about Dolly Parton after her death.
- 46:00Speaker 4: And he said that he was really sad that he
- 46:02Speaker 4: never got to actually meet her. He heard about, you know.
- 46:05Speaker 2: How great she was.
- 46:05Speaker 4: He knew her. He's like, you know, even though, like,
- 46:07Speaker 4: obviously I've been in, like, hip-hop my whole life, she was, like,
- 46:11Speaker 4: a mega icon. Everybody knew who Dolly was. And when
- 46:15Speaker 4: they both were inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall
- 46:18Speaker 4: of Fame November 2022, he said that in his dressing room,
- 46:22Speaker 4: she left him a note. And she says that, you know, basically, hey,
- 46:27Speaker 4: I'm sorry we never got a chance to meet. I'm
- 46:29Speaker 4: getting this note from Dolly. It had an impact on me.
- 46:31Speaker 4: She didn't have to do it. And she basically is
- 46:33Speaker 4: just telling him, like, I'm so happy for you. I'm
- 46:37Speaker 4: so proud of you. You've come so far, and your
- 46:39Speaker 4: performance was fantastic. Everybody said so. It's so cute. Everybody
- 46:44Speaker 4: said so.
- 46:45Speaker 2: I just imagine her like, I need to write a
- 46:48Speaker 2: note to Marshall Mathers.
- 46:49Speaker 1: Marshall Mathers.
- 46:49Speaker 4: Yeah, she did put that.
- 46:50Speaker 1: What's his real name?
- 46:51Speaker 6: Marshall.
- 46:51Speaker 4: Marshall, and then in quotations, Eminem.
- 46:53Speaker 1: That's so proper of her to be like, what's his
- 46:55Speaker 1: real name? I know his name isn't Eminem.
- 46:57Speaker 4: You know she put Marshall.
- 46:58Speaker 1: Marshall. Of course she did. She's so sweet.
