I'm your host Annie F. Deltz. I'm really happy to be here with you today. We've got a great

show in store for you, but before we get to that, I know y'all have seen the save the date.

I put on Instagram and I've been dying to tell y'all this. Well, today I finally get to see it was just like a hope in a dream, but we didn't know if it was going to become a reality.

But part of our plan to celebrate launching that sounds fun. The book and hitting New York Times bestseller list was to have a party, not a virtual one, not just a couple of hours, not just a few friends, a whole day in person celebrating safely.

Y'all aren't even ready for this at Dollywood. That's right. We're going to Dollywood and all of y'all are invited. It is literally that sounds fun day at Dollywood on Saturday, May 22nd. I'm like barely in my seat. I'm so excited.

Mark your calendars and make your plans to get there to Dollywood. We've got some really fun stuff planned, including a live podcast recording with a special guest.

And more that we'll tell you about soon, but I really just wanted you to get the date on your calendar and go ahead and get your tickets.

You can get your tickets at www.dollywood.com slash that sounds fun. And you know our sweet friends at Dollywood are hooking up my friends with majorly discounted tickets for the day.

Again, it's Saturday, May 22nd, and you can get your discounted ticket at dollywood.com slash that sounds fun. When you go to that page, click on the ticket and then you'll see a little calendar and you have to go to May 22nd. This discount only works on that day.

So make sure you join us at Dollywood on May 22nd for that sounds fun day. We've got a great show in store for you. This is one of my dearest friends.

One of the people I've loved touring with Angie Smith, y'all may have seen us last year out on the come to the table tour. She's hilarious. Y'all just aren't even ready for this interview.

I just adore her so much. Her new book is called woven, understanding the Bible as one seamless story. Y'all, y'all. I'm just telling you, you want this book. You absolutely want this book.

And you want to hear this conversation with my friend Angie Smith.

Yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, yeah, I want you to and just bring that microphone wherever you need to.

All right, here it is. If you need more coffee, just ring a bell. I will. Thanks for just point back at Craig. If you need more coffee and Hill text Ashley and she'll be out here immediately with your drink of choice.

I have a very elaborate system here. I appreciate it. Look at I've never seen water like this water in a box because you don't like when you've plastic like when you've plastic. I know it's I've taken a hard stand on one thing.

In this office.

And it's one use plastic. I don't know. I don't know. I just love to do the other day. I was like, please a couple of weeks. I was like, can we please stop buying water balls if I water boxes.

But I didn't know there was a thing. Yeah, it is. Well, I know now look at you. The other option is every time you a guest comes in, we hand them an actual like branded water bottle full of water. And that feels like, oh, she's that.

Oh, fine. And I'm trying to be her. I just want your water in a box, not in a bottle that's going to get trash. Oh, she's that. Nope, not any downs. Any of us people dig on the bottom of the ocean. And that's right.

I'm like, we can wear shoes from off these. I think it's amazing. I never knew that. I'm a fan now Angie. Tell me why tell me no, I thought that was Todd's bio on the back of your book. And I was like, Angie, tell me why you and Todd's bios are on the back of woven.
