Episode Details

Nashville’s airport might soon be renamed after Dolly Parton, a bold move that could cost $10 million and even change the airport code—though that one’s already taken. Governor Bill Lee champions the idea, calling her Tennessee’s “favorite daughter,” while former Trump supporters now back the change. It’s a full-circle moment, especially since Dolly was once considered an alternative to Trump’s name. Beyond the airport buzz, Tennessee celebrates her birthday as “Dolly Parton Day” and is pushing for “9 to 5 Day” too. Once hesitant about statues, Dolly’s enduring cultural impact is now undeniable—even while she’s still alive and spreading joy.
