Description
This round will contain less info about the film, and has no mentions of Robert Goulet, I promise. But it IS all about the usual things you discuss when it comes to THE KING. Stuff you just can't avoid when bringing up  Elvis Aron Presley: Bloom County, Charles Bronson, 'lectric guitar pickups, Corey Feldman, Johnny Cash, electro shock therapy, 16 year old Priscilla, Sam Phillips, and the case for Colonel Tom Parker being a paranoid psychopath who never let Elvis tour Europe because he was still wanted for the murder of a young shopkeeper in his tiny Dutch hometown.  National Sexual Assault Hotline (R.A.I.N.N.) 1-800-656-4673 National Suicide Prevention Lifeline 800-273-8255 Choose your way of supporting the show for no money or for maybe some money: https://linktr.ee/justtheworstever Some references used:  https://archive.org/details/samphillipsmanwh0000gura_s4t0 https://www.smithsonianmag.com/history/colonel-parker-managed-elvis-career-but-was-he-a-killer-on-the-lam-108042206/ https://archive.org/details/elvisme00pres https://archive.org/details/coloneltruestory0000nash/page/n1/mode/2up
