Who would have thought this guy was a fan? Who is this?
Anybody know who that is?

**Devon** (2:24)
I have no idea.

**Rafe** (2:25)
I dozed off, sorry.

**Devon** (2:27)
What?

**Rafe** (2:27)
I'm just kidding, it was good. I'm gonna-

**Rizz** (2:29)
Do you have any idea who that is?

**Chad Gray** (2:31)
No.

**Rizz** (2:31)
Devin, any idea who that is?

**Devon** (2:32)
How old is this man?

**Rizz** (2:33)
Yeah, he's-

**Chad Gray** (2:35)
He's older than Rafe and I.

**Devon** (2:36)
Okay.

**Rizz** (2:38)
Very famous actor.

**Chad Gray** (2:39)
Are we surprised that he could sing?

**Rafe** (2:41)
Yes, yeah.

**Chad Gray** (2:43)
So is it-

**Rizz** (2:44)
If you heard that this guy was gonna do this, you'd roll your eyes and go, oh.

**Chad Gray** (2:48)
Is it Samuel?

**Rizz** (2:49)
Okay, you say Samuel?

**Chad Gray** (2:50)
Yes.

**Rizz** (2:51)
That sounded like Samuel to you, okay.

**Chad Gray** (2:52)
Well, no, but if he's singing maybe, he's got a deep voice.

**Devon** (2:56)
Yeah, like who am I thinking of? I'm like almost-

**Rizz** (2:58)
Very famous person.

**Devon** (3:01)
I know the voice, but I can't-

**Rafe** (3:02)
Proof that famous person and when you hear the name, we're gonna be proof that Dolly is universally loved.

**Devon** (3:07)
Really?

**Rafe** (3:07)
Just like someone that you're like, well, she really did touch everyone.

**Chad Gray** (3:11)
Oh, okay.

**Rafe** (3:11)
Doesn't seem like the type of guy who would do this and be emotional or be a Dolly Parton fan.

**Rizz** (3:18)
Very emotional and it'd be good. Devin, any guesses?
That threw it off. Dr. Phil. Dr. Phil.

**Devon** (3:26)
That's a great one. Not a bad guess.

**Chad Gray** (3:30)
I knew it was him.

**Devon** (3:32)
Whoa, there he goes.

**Rizz** (3:34)
There goes Dr. Phil.

**Rafe** (3:35)
There was actually a hint in there. Here's a good idea. Let's all get drunk.

**Rizz** (3:39)
It's Dr. Phil's birthday today, by the way.

**Devon** (3:41)
Oh, it's a Christmas day.

**Rafe** (3:44)
Is it really? That's crazy.
You inadvertently gave a hint.

**Devon** (3:47)
I know. Is that Bill Murray? I don't know. Bill Murray, no. Oh, Vin Diesel?

**Chad Gray** (3:53)
Who'd you say?

**Devon** (3:53)
Vin Diesel.

**Chad Gray** (3:54)
He just peeled out.

**Devon** (3:56)
That was Vin Diesel. He's got a heck of a voice.

**Rizz** (3:58)
Vin Vincent Diesel.

**Rafe** (4:02)
Now, in here, your family Dolly.

**Rizz** (4:08)
I mean, that's a pretty deep personal tribute to Dolly Parton.

**Rafe** (4:13)
Dang.

**Rizz** (4:14)
And his voice cracks with emotion. I mean, and this unexpected performance, it's gone viral.

**Devon** (4:21)
Wow.

**Rizz** (4:22)
With people calling it Ozzy, even say it too. It's vulnerable, it's heartfelt, and it's strangely moving.

**Devon** (4:27)
It's kind of like The Rock. You know, The Rock is doing music now.

**Rizz** (4:31)
Well, yeah, he sang on the Moana soundtrack.

**Devon** (4:33)
Right. But I mean, it kind of, I mean, maybe because he's a beefy man as well. I don't know, putting all my beefy men together, but that's really sweet that he did that.

**Rizz** (4:41)
Very sweet.

**Devon** (4:42)
Yeah, I like it. I'm just impressed.

**Rafe** (4:45)
It was better than I anticipated. I saw the thing. I just saw the headline and go, Vin Diesel sings, I Will Always Love You, and a surprisingly touching tribute to Dolly. And I was like, this can't, this is going to be top of show, bad national anthem.

**Devon** (5:01)
Makes me love him more, honestly.

**Rafe** (5:03)
I also wanted to put out Old Man River.

**Chad Gray** (5:05)
He would crush that with that voice.

**Rizz** (5:09)
Also, in other Dolly news, the connection.

**Devon** (5:13)
Who's the one who's talking about Old Man River?
