Travel to Historic Locations with History or Drive.

We're diving into the electric vibes of 1970 Vegas, where the King himself, Elvis Presley, is shaking things up on stage.

Picture this: a smoky showroom, a captivated crowd, and a spotlight that cuts through the darkness to reveal the man in a dazzling jumpsuit. For a solid hour, the world fades away, and all that matters is Elvis, pouring his heart out through soulful growls and karate kicks.

Today, we're asking the big question—can that lightning be bottled? Join Jenn and me as we chat about Baz Luhrmann’s epic new documentary that digs into never-before-seen footage and uncovers the real Elvis, and whether it captures the soul of the legend or just leaves us with a ghostly glimpse. Buckle up, because this is gonna be a fun ride through the history of rock and roll!

***********Fact Checks and Corrections***********

- The lost footage was NOT from 1969...it was footage from 1970 and 1972 with some other previously lost Elivs interview audio.
