About this listen

Viva Pod Vegas returns with Stay Away, Joe, which is the lowest-rated movie of Elvis’s career. Is it as bad as we were led to believe? Yes… and no! After Mike sifts through shoddy taglines to try to find one he approves of, we debate whether watching these movies more quickly would help or hurt us. Mike works his way through a theory about Burgess Meredith as the Penguin and Col. Tom Parker. Speaking of, what would this movie have looked like if Col. Tom Parker was involved? We ask: why isn’t there more plot? Also: why is THIS the plot? Joey notes that this feels like a video game — and Mike points out that maybe that’s not a bad thing. We talk about why Elvis hates the song “Dominick” (but loves dogs) and whether or not he’s running a bull-riding grift at the end of this movie. We break down the Stay Away, Joe wedding that Elvis doesn’t want… and then a brawl to end the movie (with sound effects that no one wants!). We set a new record in our end-of-show games and we look ahead to Speedway.
