À PROPOS DE CET ÉPISODE
Dolly Parton and politics have always had an interesting relationship. On the one hand, she wrote 9 to 5, the anthem for working women and the theme song for a movie inspired by a new labor union.

In this moment in history, how should we think of this kind of fiercely apolitical stance? Is it desirable, or even possible?
