060 - The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas ("In 1921 We Finally Got Buttermilk") (w/ Jenna Sokalski)
Sunday, 9 November, 2025
The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas is a 1982 musical comedy film based on the stage musical of the same name. Directed by Colin Higgins, it followed the "Chicken Ranch" brothel located in Lanville County, widely accepted and traditionally beloved by the small town of Gilbert, but faced with closure upon its discovery by a TV morality watchdog. The cast featured Dolly Parton, Burt Reynolds, Dom DeLuise, Jim Nabors, and the singularity-altering, reality-warping presence otherwise known as Charles Durning. It was a major box office hit upon its release, and an Academy Award nomination for Durning, despite only being in the film for one scene.On this episode of Hell Is A Musical, Lilz and Scott are joined by return guest, burlesque artist, and declared Dolly Parton expert Jenna Sokalski for a viewing of The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas, and take in the sights, sounds, and oddly kitschy and polished vibes for a movie about a brothel. Join them as Jenna worships at the altar of patron saint Dolly, Lilz does a little side-step, and Scott gets really really annoyed. All the while Charles Durning delights everything in sight, as if he could do any less.#HotDurnAutumn...with Lilz & Scott!
