For this special Christmas Day episode, Katie heads back to her roots — the green hills of Surrey — for a festive, unfiltered year-in-review over Dolly Wines with a very special guest: her mum, Carole Atkin.With a glass in hand, Katie and Carole dive headfirst into this week’s biggest country music talking points — from the ever-expanding relationship web of Riley Green, Ella Langley, Megan Moroney and Tucker Wetmore, to Jelly Roll’s official pardon and powerful redemption arc, the Taylor Swift documentary, and why British humour desperately needs more space in country music media.Carole offers her bird’s-eye view on how Girls In Low Places has evolved from a sofa-based passion project into a guest-driven podcast with red carpet access, before sharing candid (and occasionally brutal) thoughts on dating, age gaps, fame, and why meeting someone “in real life” might still be the move.Festive, funny, reflective and unfiltered — a proper Christmas Day yap with country music at the centre. A Christmas "Carole" some would say.🎧 Pour a drink, press play, and Merry Christmas from Girls In Low Places.See Privacy Policy at https://art19.com/privacy and California Privacy Notice at https://art19.com/privacy#do-not-sell-my-info.
