WARNING: Do not listen to this podcast while drinking fluids or with a full bladder. Your laughter may undo you. Just when you thought nothing more could be said about The King, here comes Elvis, And. Skilled comedy improvisers use stories from Elvis Presley's biography as a jumping-off point to explore the bizarre possibilities of what went on behind the gold-rimmed shades and the gates of Graceland. When their entire world revolves around the whims and rules of a drug-fueled, velvet-voiced but kind-hearted madman, the "Memphis Mafia" must scramble to balance the gold-plated scales, often with disastrous results.
My only criticism of this podcast is that it completely ignores the women in Presley's life and never uses female performers. The influence of mother Gladys, young wife Priscilla, and chef Mary Jenkins Langston, and the legions of fans he pleased, can only add to the mix of comedy gold. I hope that as the episodes continue, the story expands.
I look forward to hearing more Elvis, And!
