Mark And Sarah Talk About Songs

Dan Rogge returns -- with our new friends L.V. Beethoven and Phyllis Domain -- to discuss his least favorite William Joel album, 1983's "An Innocent Man." The recurring Diane character, elegant internal rhymes, car-tape-deck privilege, protecting the children from doo-wop, wedding-band improv exercises, and how big a pop star you have to be to get away with pairing Uggs and a tux: keep the faith that we're talking about all of that and much more. Grab a harmonica and join us!

The moment has arrived: the selection of the Dolliest Dolly Parton song of them all. As we investigate whether all Parton-narration roads pass through "Jolene," we're also discussing insightful user comments, the perils of a glass and a half of Chablis, the ugly weakness of love, audition songs, and The Aeneid. Pause that Starsky & Hutch rerun and listen now!

And you think about it, don't you? ...As much as we'd like every one of these Dolly Parton songs to get a participation tiara, we will forge ahead with choosing the championship pair. Along the way, we hear medleys of two of the finalists, contemplate the difference between a "bad" song and a "correct" one, and speculate on Mr. Jolene's double album.

Today we select our Final 4 in the Dolly 64, after struggling with self-imposed rules that don't serve us, identifying the Dolly songs that won't end up in a commercial for floor polish, and speculating on that waterboy's future coot prospects. Why did it take us this long to come up with the phrase "the Fortress of Dollitude"? Maybe because we inhaled too much pink Partonclave smoke...you'll have to listen to find out.

It's the hardest round in every bracket season in some ways, and the Dolly 64's Sweet 16 ep is no different. How many different lists did Sarah have? Is Mark's "Dolly didn't write it" rule going to last? These questions and many more -- which one old coot shall rule them all; whether every "typical" Dolly is good; how to embody "kuntree" without making it a moral position -- as we rest our boobs on the points scale for our latest episode. Find out whether we ended up with an Elite Eleven and listen now!
