In this episode of Prisoners of Rock and Roll, we're going all the way back to the beginning of rock and roll – and our back catalogue – by taking another look at Sun Records. In January 1950, Sam Phillips and his assistant Mario Keisker opened a small recording studio in a former auto glass repair shop in Memphis, Tennessee and the rest is rock and roll history. Sun Records brought us the first rock and roll song Rocket 88 by Jackie Brenston and his Delta Cats. They also introduced the world to Elvis Presley, Johnny Cash, Jerry Lee Lewis, and more. We're going to talk about the history of Sun Records and Sam Phillips, the roster of amazing artists that recorded there, and the impact it had on music forever. Let's roll.

Last week the "How We Heard It" hosts came up with a list of the greatest women singers in modern music, debating Janis Joplin vs. Whitney Houston and Karen Carpenter vs. Barbra Streisand while also finding endless praise for everyone from Aretha Franklin to Linda Ronstadt to Annie Lennox to Billie Eilish. This week, "How We Heard It" pivots to men singers, going back in time to crooners like Frank Sinatra and Bing Crosby and country legends like Hank Williams and George Jones. From there, the hosts come forward, breezing through classic singer-songwriters like Jim Croce and James Taylor, R&B pioneers such as Ray Charles, Marvin Gaye and Stevie Wonder, and all manner of rock singers, including Elvis Presley and Freddie Mercury, while pausing to engage in the inevitable Paul McCartney vs. John Lennon debate. The 1980s and 1990s are represented by the likes of Bruce Springsteen, Prince, Sting, Robert Palmer, Michael Hutchence, Trent Reznor, Vince Gill and Randy Travis. And today's stars are also evaluated, including Post Malone, The Weeknd, Harry Styles, Benson Boone and John Legend. Meanwhile, you might be surprised to find out where many of the others fall into place, including Elton John, Willie Nelson, Michael Jackson and Robert Plant. Especially Robert Plant.

Dernier volet rockab/ fiftos… Avec ou sans Margerin et Lucien, les bananes, les motos, les guitares, Fonzy, le rock’n ‘roll quoi! Un petit tour chez certains « rebels »(en hexagone), ceux avec le drapeau sudiste, leurs collègues ennemis des Black Panthers avec Grand Jack, on se balade aussi en Allemagne, avant d’écouter le King tout de même… […] L'article Maggot Brain – Hommage à Elvis Presley Vol. 3 est apparu en premier sur Radio Campus Tours - 99.5 FM.
Ceux qui ont connu une star de la pop ou du cinéma sur les bancs de l'école ont tous dit la même chose : on n'aurait jamais cru. Oui, qui peut affirmer : « J'ai toujours su que Mick deviendrait une star. John ? On était tous d'accord au lycée : un jour, on le verrait passer à la télé. »Non, bien sûr. Les profs et les camarades de classe ont tous été étonnés du destin d'un Michel Polnareff ou d'un Paul McCartney. Mais alors puisqu'il n'y a pas d'école de stars où elles grandissent toutes ensemble, qu'est-ce qui fait qu'un jour Michael devient Mick Jagger ou un Farokh Boulsara, Freddie Mercury ?Et bien, le plus souvent, un drame, une fêlure, un manque, bref un gros problème non résolu qui poussent ces enfants à développer un talent dans lequel ils vont tout donner, s'engouffrer, et qui va un jour être reconnu par tous car, oui, on n'a jamais vu ou entendu un truc pareil. Et en 1962, à Windlesham, une petite ville de la campagne londonienne près du fameux champ de course hippique d'Ascot, le jeune Roger Hodgson vit un drame avec le divorce de ses parents. Avant de quitter la maison familiale, son père lui fait un incroyable cadeau : une guitare électrique. A cette époque, je peux vous dire que des guitares électriques, on n'en voit pas beaucoup. D'ailleurs pourquoi deviendrait-on guitariste ? Les membres de l'orchestre sont toujours dans l'ombre, regardez, derrière Elvis Presley ou Frank Sinatra. Ce sont les Beatles qui dans quelques mois vont devenir les premiers premiers musiciens superstars et envoyer des milliers d'adolescents britanniques dans les magasins d'instruments, créant une génération de surdoués. Voilà donc notre jeune Roger replié sur sa guitare électrique. Il est tellement attaché à ce cadeau de son père que, pour combler le vide, se protéger du complexe d'être désormais un enfant de divorcé, il se rend à l'école avec elle. Et surprise, il ne se fait pas montrer du doigt en classe, miuex, son instituteur lui apprend à jouer les trois accords principaux.Rodger fusionne alors avec sa guitare. Un an plus tard, il donne déjà un concert dans son école en duo avec un autre élève avec qui il interprète neuf chansons qu'il a lui-même composées. La musique et lui font désormais UN. Rodger apprend aussi à jouer de nombreux instruments, rien ne lui résiste.Au sortir de l'école, en 1969, Rodger Hodgson enregistre déjà un disque pour le label Island qui avant de produire Bob Marley et U2, publie alors Steve Winwood et Eric Clapton. Il faut dire que Rodger a croisé le chemin d'un autre surdoué nommé Reginald Dwight avec qui il chante sous le nom de Argosy. Malheureusement après un premier 45 tours, Reginald le quitte avec le batteur et l'autre guitariste pour faire une carrière solo sous le nom de Elton John. Se retrouvant seul, Roger Hodgson répond alors à la petite annonce d'un certain Rick Davies : cherche guitariste. Le jour de l'audition, ils sont une petite centaine à faire la file. Pourtant, immédiatement, Rick dira : C'est lui ! Quel talent ! Je n'ai jamais entendu un truc pareil.

The town of Crystal River in Florida is the home of the manatee. This is where they can be found in the winter, congregating in the natural springs found in the area. Those springs attracted indigenous people as well and some of them left behind their mounds. These not only have cultural and historic interest, but they have paranormal activity as well, which we discovered for ourselves. There are other locations with ghost stories too, one which also has a connection to Elvis Presley and his film "Follow That Dream." And we found a wonderful small historic cemetery that not only had some sad stories to share, but the activity we experienced there, brought us back for a second trip. Join us as we share the history and hauntings of Crystal River! The Moment in Oddity features Bishop Castle.

What's myth and what's fact in the story of Charles Manson? What were the true motives behind the murders and who was really involved? There are many books covering this topic, yet very few have broken through the 'official' tale told by the trial's prosecutors and the news media at the time. This book includes hundreds of hours of research into court and police documents, witness statements, media reports and interviews with those involved. This book examines the current theories surrounding the case and appraises their likelihood against a timeline of events and the words of Manson himself. The prosecution case promoted by Vincent, Bugliosi, the Process Church influence as endorsed by Ed Sanders and David McGowan, the robbery scenario as spoken of by Nikolas Shreck and William Scanlon Murphy and the possibility of MK Ultra mind control as discussed by Adam Gorightly are all examined and tested.How do Terry Melcher, Elvis Presley, the Beach Boys, Jane Fonda, the Mamas and the Papas, Michael Caine, Dean Martin, Angela Lansbury, Peter Sellers, Warren Beatty, Yul Brynner, Peter Falk, Cary Grant, Steve McQueen, Neil Young, Frank Zappa, Nancy Sinatra, Ronald Reagan and Debbie Harry fit into the tale? What Hollywood secrets did the industry, the police and the prosecution strive to keep hidden? Were the victims really chosen at random by a crazed cult of serial killers, high on a mix of LSD, Satanism and the music of the Beatles? Read on to uncover the secrets of the Manson family, their trial, the main players in the case and the murky world of Hollywood.The book contains 564 pages, 200,000+ words containing a complete history of the life of Charles Manson.A detailed examination of the Hinman, Shea, Tate and LaBianca murders, appraisal of all the most prominent theories surrounding the case, explanations of the coded confessions revealed in interviews with Manson.Stories of celebrity encounters, facts about Manson's relationship with the music industry, details of organised crime connections, faults with the prosecution's case, troubling indications about the motives and character of Vincent Bugliosi, examinations of further murders and other criminal activity possibly connected to Manson.Revelations about the main players involved in the case, embarrassing secrets of the Hollywood elite, suggestions of police ineptitude, signs of a cover-up, bizarre coincidences, strange occurrences, salacious gossip, radical political movements, riots, the Black Panthers, The Beatles, The Beach Boys, cults, religion, sex, drugs and murder.This book has been read, enjoyed, praised and promoted by friends of Charlies and members of ATWA. https://amzn.to/4naItmKBecome a supporter of this podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/the-opperman-report--1198501/support.
Today on part two the Rarified Heir Podcast, we continue our conversation with Sharyn Felder, daughter of the late, great songwriter Doc Pomus and trust us, this episode is as jam packed and fun-filled as part one from last week. Last week we spoke to Sharyn on the release day of a new box set of her father's music, You Can't Hip a Square: The Doc Pomus Songwriting Demos on Omnivore Recordings, a six-CD set of lost, archival tracks. We continue that conversation today and learn that there just may be more tracks in her father's archive that have never been released co-written by a very famous musician from New Orleans. We also hear more about her father's second career as a card player when the royalty money dried up in the 1970s and the characters who inhabited that word – the mobsters, the octogenarians, the hypochondriacs, the gun-toting security and more. We also learned why the games stopped (take a guess) and how Doc began the second phase of his songwriting career, years after his career started. Sharyn's colorful stories on this episode include two very popular music business folks who absolutely hated each other, Doc Pomus' connection to a massive film in the 1970s that launched a comedy duo and became part of pop culture icons, how a bathhouse singer gained massive fame via Doc's help but never acknowledged it publicly and much more. Part two is every bit as good as part one as you will hear right now on this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast. Everyone has a story.
In this special Elvis Week episode, acclaimed music historian Peter Guralnick joins us to discuss his new book, "The Colonel and the King," a deeply researched portrait of the complex relationship between Elvis Presley and his manager, Colonel Tom Parker.

Auch fast 50 Jahre nach dem viel zu frühen Tod von Elvis Presley im August 1977 mit nur 42 Jahren gibt es Menschen, die nicht akzeptieren können oder wollen, dass der King of Rock ’n‘ Roll nicht mehr unter uns weilt. Immer wieder gibt es Sichtungen, und es gibt zahllose Bücher und Erzählungen, die uns erklären wollen, warum der „King” seinen Tod nur vortäuschte und heute, von der Öffentlichkeit zurückgezogen, lebt. Endlich haben wir uns dieser prototypischen Verschwörungserzählung angenommen und ganz genau hingeschaut. Ihr findet unsere Umfrage hier. Wie man uns unterstützen kann, könnt ihr hier nachlesen.

If ever there was an episode that is impossible to describe in a few words, it's this one. Bobby Ogdin has hundreds of sessions and live performances to his name across literally hundreds of artists. We attempt to cover just a fraction of that with Bobby and what a privilege it was. From Bobby's backing...

Have you ever succeeded when no one thought you could? That's what it means to do something against all odds. In today's episode, Shana begins with a bear story from her front yard in Asheville (yes, one even climbed into her car!), then moves into a lighthearted pun about “bare feet.” From there, you'll dive deep into the expression against all odds. You'll learn its meaning, history, and how to use it naturally in daily conversation. Shana shares incredible real-life examples: the Donner Party pioneers who survived a brutal winter, Eminem rising to the top of rap, the “Miracle on Ice” U.S. hockey victory, and more inspiring stories including Walt Disney, Elvis Presley, Diana Nyad, and Aron Ralston. By the end, you'll not only understand the phrase against all odds, but you'll also feel motivated by stories of triumph in the face of impossible challenges. Stick around for the pronunciation practice to make sure the phrase rolls off your tongue like a native speaker's—and get ready for next week's tale of Hugh Glass, the legendary frontiersman who inspired The Revenant.

Justin and Bec have compiled their lists of a half-dozen essential alternate studio takes apiece that every Elvis Presley fan, from total newbies to lifelong fans should hear! For Song of the Week, Bec decides to spotlight Elvis's melancholy 1973 cover of Danny O'Keefe's folk-country hit song "Good Time Charlie's Got The Blues" - but in the hosts' pre-show off-air chat, the duo realized that the song had a lot of overlap with the world of outlaw country, given that the bluesy "Charlie" would go on to be covered by the likes of Waylon Jennings, Willie Nelson and others. So Justin takes the opportunity to learn Bec some of the history of the burgeoning "outlaw" scene in Nashville in the early 1970s that led to Jennings' iconic "Honky Tonk Heroes" album, largely comprised of material by songwriter Billy Joe Shaver, including "You Asked Me To," which Elvis also recorded in late 1973.

All week we're revisiting archival interviews with key figures in early rock and roll, rockabilly and R&B. Sam Phillips discovered Elvis Presley and produced his first records, which many consider Elvis' best. He also founded Sun Records and launched the careers of Jerry Lee Lewis, Roy Orbison, Charlie Rich and Johnny Cash. Cash is one of the most influential figures in country music. His collaboration with producer Rick Rubin, starting in the late 1990s, transformed Cash's image and gained him a new, young audience.

Today on part one the Rarified Heir Podcast, we speak to Sharyn Felder, daughter of one of the greatest songwriters of the 20th century, Doc Pomus. While you may not know the name Doc Pomus, you absolutely know his songs. Everyone from Elvis Presley, Dolly Parton, Bruce Springsteen, Ray Charles, Leonard Cohen, Dr. John, B.B. King have all recorded Doc Pomus songs…the list goes on and on. And we'll get to those songs he wrote shortly. On the day we spoke to Sharyn, it was release day of a new box set of her father's music, You Can't Hip a Square: The Doc Pomus Songwriting Demos on Omnivore Recordings, a six-CD set of lost, archival tracks that are a fascinating look into Doc's music and his voice. We also get to hear the back story of how the music survived, the family archive as well as some famous people who also sang on the demos as well as the famous names whose sides didn't survive. Along the way we discuss more famous and infamous characters who were part of Doc's inner circle and those who sought out his help when the ships were down. And let us tell you, it's one hell of a list. Like who? Robbie Robertson and Levon Helm when they were in Ronnie Hawkins band, Bob Dylan at a creative low point , Dr. John when he was struggling to quit heroin, Phil Spector, Bobby Darin, Otis Blackwell and many more. Somehow we concluded part one with a tale about the Runyon-esque existence her father lived to the fullest and the literal death of a clown. It's funny/not funny. Take a listen to this episode of the Rarified Heir Podcast.

Riding Shotgun With Charlie #236 Zeke Stout MGS Trade School Zeke and I have been running into each other at various events for a few years. If I remember correctly, Yehuda Remer (RSWC #012) introduced us at SHOT Show. Zeke is a great guy, very personable and funny. Matt Mallory & I have done some live shows with Zeke, including on at SHOT Shot 2025. He's been talking to me about doing a show in Memphis and we were able to pull it off after the NRA Annual Meetings in Atlanta this year. We started across the street from Graceland, yes, where Elvis Presley lived. He warned me to watch out for high speed chases as they have the best drop guns in Memphis! Zeke has made a great career for himself and in several fields. He started in medical sales, pharmaceutical sales, and medical supply sales just to have a solid income. The hours were neverending, being on call all the time. So it was time to move on. At one point, he got some help from an entrepreneurial friend and learned about marketing. This was his new passion. He's been able to use that throughout his career and in many of the fields. They opened a car dealership in Clarksville, TN, and he decided to get his carry permit. Once he was into firearms, he turned it full on. During drives to work he would call and talk with his friend Marty “Lefthand” Holder and they would talk about guns and called it Talking Lead. It hit them that they should start a podcast. His entrepreneur friend owned a Mexican radio station and he asked if they could use the studio to record their podcast. For a while, both Zeke and Vanessa Mandrel had a radio show called Projectile Disfunction. Within four episodes of Talking Lead, they learned there were other great firearm content creators who lived within 30 minutes. Folks like Hickok45, .22 Plinkster, and TNOutdoors9. James Yeager wasn't too far away either. Their episode with Hickok got them into 117 countries. In six months, they were one of the largest gun podcasts in the world. At one point, Zeke started doing marketing for a gunsmithing school who shall not be named. He took that company and grew them over 340% in four years. One day, he opened a message on LinkedIn and there was a message from a casting agency. They wanted him to audition to be a judge for gunsmithing on the show Master of Arms on Discovery Channel. According to him, the way to win an audition is to not care. Once they found out that he had other media and podcasting skills, they wanted him to host the show. Ashley Hlebinsky (RSWC #130) was also on that show. Unfortunately, the show only lasted one season. After the TV season of life, he took a hiatus from firearms and got into marketing in the motorcycle world. Yes, one day a week, he had to ride his bike for work! After a while of motorcycle marketing, he reached out to Modern Gun School, MGS. Part of the offer was to do what he did for the other company, but this time he wanted to be a part owner. One of the first things they did was rebrand to MGS Trade School so that it was much more acceptable. If that wasn't enough, Zeke took that marketing skill and got into golf while his son was taking lessons. He started Dilligolf. It's short for “Do I look like I golf.” He's been growing that YouTube channel, too. It was such a fun show to record and to hang out with Zeke. We do take a call from Yehuda Remer, The Pew Pew Jew. He's got so many stories and tells them well. You'll really get to know him and see what a great guy he is. Oh yeah… we do see a high speed chase and pick up a drop gun. As he says, “we've got the best drop guns in Memphis.” Favorite quotes: “Whenever I get into anything, I dive in, absolute head first.” “Talking Lead was started in a Mexican radio station in Nashville.” “What just happened? We might have something on our hands.” “Dude, we didn't know you did all this. Why don't you audition for the host of this show?” “I'll form an LLC and write off all my golf expenses. And I did.” MGS Trade School https://mgs.edu/ MGS On YouTube http://youtube.com/@mgstradeschool MGS Facebook https://www.facebook.com/MGSTradeSchool/ MGS X https://x.com/mgstradeschool MTS IG https://www.instagram.com/mgstradeschool/ Dilligolf YouTube https://www.youtube.com/@Dilligolf MTR Defense https://mtrdefense.com/ Second Amendment Foundation https://secure.anedot.com/saf/donate?sc=RidingShotgun Citizens Committee for the Right to Keep and Bear Arms https://www.ccrkba.org/ Please support the Riding Shotgun With Charlie sponsors and supporters.

This week Bill finally meets the genie of his boyhood dreams – and yes, he even brought the bottle. Barbara Eden drops by for a warm, witty time capsule only a true showbiz legend can deliver: memories of Elvis Presley, the 60th anniversary of I Dream of Jeannie, belly-button “censorship” and why the bottle was never allowed in the bedroom. Bill gives Barbara an OnlyFans crash course she never asked for, and Barbara tells Vegas war stories with George Burns and Shecky Greene, including the wildest “show must go on” tale you've ever heard. It's a conversation as magical as Jeannie herself.

¿Por qué robar como un artista también mejora tu comunicación?Para Austin Kleon, autor del libro Steal Like an Artist, esta es la esencia de la creatividad, algo que sin duda también puede transformar la forma en que comunicamos.Para empezar, pensemos en algunos casos reales donde las grandes obras no surgieron de la nada, sino del diálogo con lo que ya existía:El “robo” de Los Beatles y el rock and roll americanoMuchos consideran a The Beatles como la banda más influyente de la historia de la música. Pero ellos mismos admitieron que buena parte de su inspiración vino del rock and roll y el rhythm and blues estadounidense de los años 50. Chuck Berry, Little Richard y Elvis Presley marcaron su sonido inicial. Lo que hicieron los Beatles fue absorber esas influencias, mezclarlas con su propio contexto británico y convertirlas en algo completamente nuevo.El “robo” de Steve Jobs y el diseño de AppleJobs nunca ocultó que buena parte del ADN de Apple provenía de su fascinación por el diseño tipográfico y por el trabajo de empresas como Xerox PARC. Allí vio por primera vez una interfaz gráfica con ventanas y un ratón. Jobs lo tomó, lo reinterpretó y lo llevó al mercado con un estilo elegante y minimalista. El resultado fue el Macintosh, un computador que no solo funcionaba, sino que también era bello de usar.El “robo” de Lin-Manuel Miranda y Hamilton.El exitoso musical Hamilton no se parece a ningún otro de Broadway, pero su innovación no vino de la nada. Miranda tomó la historia de los padres fundadores de Estados Unidos Alexander Hamilton, la cruzó con ritmos de hip hop, R&B y música pop, y la presentó en un formato clásico de teatro musical. El resultado fue un híbrido que revolucionó la escena cultural.Estos ejemplos demuestran algo clave: la creatividad rara vez nace en un vacío. Se construye sobre lo que ya existe, reinterpretado a través de nuestra mirada y experiencia.Robar como un artista en la comunicaciónCuando comunicamos, también estamos “robando como artistas”. No inventamos cada palabra desde cero. Usamos frases que hemos escuchado, estructuras que nos enseñaron en el colegio, ejemplos que alguna vez nos contaron, gestos que hemos visto en otros. Lo importante es cómo logramos tomar todo eso y darle nuestro propio sello.Un líder, por ejemplo, puede inspirarse en discursos históricos para motivar a su equipo, pero adaptándolos al contexto actual y al lenguaje de su organización. Un profesor puede apoyarse en referencias clásicas, pero presentarlas con humor o con ejemplos de la vida diaria. Incluso en un correo electrónico, tomar una estructura que ya funciona y personalizarla con nuestro estilo es una forma de “robar creativamente”.La clave, como dice Kleon, está en seleccionar bien las referencias. Robar de una sola fuente es plagio; hacerlo de muchas, es investigación. Y en la comunicación pasa igual: mientras más amplias y diversas sean nuestras influencias, más original puede ser lo que decimos.En este episodio de Mil Palabras partimos del libro Steal Like an Artist de Austin Kleon para entender cómo estas ideas aplican al mundo de la comunicación. Porque al final, comunicar también es un acto creativo: tomamos lo que otros ya dijeron, lo filtramos con nuestra visión y lo convertimos en un mensaje fresco y propio.Así que la próxima vez que pienses que “todo ya está dicho”, recuerda que lo importante no es inventar desde cero, sino cómo mezclas y presentas lo que recibes. Ahí está tu originalidad, y ahí está tu poder como comunicador.#Comunicación Oral, #Hablar En Público, #Comunicación Efectiva, #Presentaciones, #Podcast De Comunicación, #Podcast, #Podcast Corporativo, #Desarrollo Profesional, #Expresión Verbal, #Técnicas Para Hablar Mejor, #Santiago Ríos, #Robar Como Un Artista, #Steal Like An...

Ryan Coogler's Sinners (2025) isn't just another horror movie — in fact, it might not even be horror at all. On this episode of The Two Please Podcast, we explore Sinners' haunting reflection of America's real history and culture while shining a light on its scarier real-life inspirations. This Sinners (2025) review and breakdown, discusses:Cultural theft — how Elvis and others “fed” off Black music without giving back.Vampires as metaphor — not just monsters, but symbols of exploitation and power.Racism and survival — the forces that drive the film's narrative.& Why Sinners isn't really horror — and why that makes it even scarier.If you've seen Sinners, you'll never look at vampires or Elvis Presley the same way again.

Amy Carlson claimed to be the reincarnation of Robin Williams, Joan of Arc, Marilyn Monroe, Jesus Christ and the Hawaiian goddess Pele—along with being Elvis Presley's mother and Donald Trump's daughter in other lifetimes. In 2023, the HBO documentary Love Has Won: The Mother God Cult traced Carlson's journey from a McDonald's manager in Dallas to cult leader, promoting beliefs that the COVID pandemic was planned, 9/11 was staged, Sandy Hook was a hoax and drinking silver particles was a path to spiritual and physical healing.Blending QAnon, New Age mysticism, authoritarian religion, pseudoscientific wellness influencers and science denial, Love Has Won thrived until Carlson's mysterious death in 2021, when followers drove her mummified body from Oregon to Colorado, awaiting her reincarnation. Today, as conspiracy theories move further into the mainstream, I'm joined by her former lover, Andrew-Ryan Profaci, to talk about community, belonging, loss, power, and the cults that hide not just in buildings—but in ideas.Contact me at silverliningshandbookpod@gmail.comCheck out the Silver Linings Handbook website at:https://silverliningshandbook.com/Check out our Patreon to support the show at:https://www.patreon.com/thesilverliningshandbookJoin our Facebook Group at:https://www.facebook.com/groups/1361159947820623Visit the Silver Linings Handbook store to support the podcast at:https://www.bonfire.com/store/the-silver-linings-handbook-podcast-storeVisit The True Crime Times Substack at:https://truecrimemessenger.substack.comThe Silver Linings Handbook podcast is a part of the ART19 network.

Dust off your blue suede shoes and buckle up your rhinestone jumpsuit—this week, we're diving hip-first into the swirling toilet bowl of conspiracy surrounding The King himself. Did Elvis really die on the throne in 1977, or was it all a cover-up to escape fame, debt, or the mafia? From sightings at a Burger King in Michigan to wild claims of government witness protection, we're peeling back the velvet curtain to reveal the bizarre theories that suggest Elvis Presley never left the building.
