In this "Feature Friday/Movie Monday" crossover, Blane and Coco step into the atmospheric, often claustrophobic world of Sofia Coppola’s Priscilla. Shifting the lens away from the typical Elvis iconography, this episode explores the 2023 A24 film as a "ghost story in a prom dress"—a narrative about what it feels like to be the most famous accessory in the world.

We tackle the heavy themes of power dynamics and grooming, discussing the reality of a 24-year-old icon molding a 14-year-old girl into his own image. Blane offers a "rebellious take," framing the marriage not as a romance, but as a "slow-motion hostage situation" with a stellar soundtrack. Meanwhile, Coco introduces the concept of the "Sovereign Moon," a healing perspective on finding one's purpose independent of external influence or fame.

Whether you’re suffering from "Elvis fatigue" or you’re an A24 devotee, this conversation peels back the paint on Graceland to reveal the flawed human behind the God-like myth.
