EPISODE SUMMARY:

It takes a lot to go from nothing to something. It takes even more to struggle all the way to success without becoming jaded, egotistical or selfish. That's why few musicians are as beloved as country music icon Dolly Parton. Not only has she made some of the most well-known and respected country songs in history, including those on her 1971 album Coat of Many Colors. She's also been in huge movies and is a philanthropic dynamo. That's why she's such a huge inspiration to comedian Leanne Morgan, who shares her humble beginnings and Appalachian roots.
