Ep. 94 Today's Peep is the First-Ever Mini-Pod! Find Out Why and Rare Dolly Parton on Red Vinyl.

Feeling the ache of a hip injury myself, I'm reminded of the fragility of our daily routine and the importance of self-care. This episode is a personal one as I take you through the highs and lows of managing pain while staying committed to work and life's demands. From my Northern California studio, I look out at the foothills, sharing intimate stories of property upkeep and the necessity of weed-eating to maintain the picturesque scenery. It's a glimpse into the little things that keep us grounded and the big things—like health—that challenge and shape us.Switching tempo, my thoughts turn to Dolly Parton's unexpected rock venture as I hold a rare, red vinyl 45 from her 1979 album. While I admire Dolly's boldness, I confess to having mixed feelings about the rock title track, finding solace in the B-side's 'Sweet Summer Lovin',' which reminds us where her roots truly lie. With the clock ticking towards a dentist appointment, I invite you to ponder the juxtaposition of Parton’s musical exploration and share your thoughts. Join me for an episode that's as much about the resilience of the human spirit as it is a nod to the timeless tug between artistic experimentation and authentic expression.
