Dolly and Dalai
When we first met at a party 20+ years ago we thought there was no way we would ever be friends. Well, here we are! Over cocktails one night our friends said we were like Dolly Pardon and Dalai Lama. Yes, one of us is a little more of a put-together 'Barbie' and the other a bit more of a free-spirited, travel-loving 'Hippie'. That is what makes us and our show great for our listeners. Listen as we dive into topics like being middle-aged and single, sex, dating disasters, aging, our bodies, traveling, relationships, business, and more.
