coming fall 2026!

In the heart of the Smoky Mountains in Pigeon Forge sits a theme park unlike any other in the world. Dollywood isn’t just a collection of award-winning roller coasters and attractions, it’s a place people return to year after year and somehow never grow tired of its charm. Your Happy Place Podcast is the podcast for the people who get that and want to talk about it!

Hosted by a lifelong East Tennessean and veteran podcaster Rebecca George, Your Happy Place goes beyond the ride reviews and event previews to explore what makes Dollywood truly special: the stories behind the live shows, the artists and performers who call the park their stage, the food and festivals that mark the seasons, the hidden details that reward the devoted, and the very heart of a place built on Dolly Parton’s dream "to come back and build something" for her people, and eventually, for all of ours. 

Episodes include stories about the thrill of new attractions like Nightflight Expedition and long-time favorites like Thunderhead, to the beloved traditions and festivals like I Will Always Love You Festival, Flower & Food Festival, Summer Celebration, Harvest Festival and Smoky Mountain Christmas. From behind-the-scenes conversations with the people who make it all happen, to Walk & Talk episodes recorded live inside the park itself…if you’ve ever walked through those gates and felt you were “home”, you’re in the right place.

Welcome to Your Happy Place Podcast: a Dollywood fan podcast. Independent, unofficial, and completely obsessed.
