I laughed for like atleast three full minutes just saying “it’s so stupid” to no one.

[@monsterreign]

This is a shame because there are tons of true fascinating Elvis stories. In 1966 I saw Elvis walking in downtown Nashville. A pregnant homeless woman asked him for a dollar. Elvis got out his checkbook and wrote her a $10,000 check. But the Colonel wouldn't let him give it to her, you know how he is.

[@achmedlolol]

That's amazing

[@monsterreign]

​@@achmedlolol Hand to God, true story. I was wearin a brown shirt in those days. I yelled at Elvis because he was also wearin a brown shirt. I yelled "brown shirt buddies!" Elvis was gonna smile and wave back at me and buy me some brand new boots, but the Colonel put the kibosh on that. There was nothing the King wouldn't do for you.

The Elvis radio host reminds me of Scorch with his laughter after every nothing joke/comment

[@njmcfreak]

I realized that I spent countless hours listening to this show with all the guests and comedians, but I glossed over the actual show for years. It’s weird because here Anthony and Opie don’t seem to hate each other so much and they seem personable.

[@TreesOnTheMoon]

I recommend every fan to listen to O&A full shows, you can find almost every O&A "episode" from 2004-2014 here on KZbin. If you only listen to compilations, isolated segments and comedian/ guest appearances you're probably missing out on hundreds of hours of this show.

[@relentlessrescue260]

I totally get why the radio guys are laughing because it is totally funny listening to them go on and on. But what these radio guys don’t understand is that Elvis never ever hung out with Hollywood types. These guys were all dirt poor normal kids from Elvis’ hometown of Tupelo Mississippi. Their best friend was Elvis, the biggest star in the world. Elvis took all his neighborhood friends with him to the top. All these guys came from nothing so every little detail was so awesome and memorable to them. It’s all they got.

I have a good story for the Elvis channel. This one time the Coronel took 16 quaaludes in a row and at the top of his high he was convinced everybody around him was a Christmas decoration, so he got on the phone and called in five Filipino kids and well.. I don't have to tell you how the story ends do I? We all know the Coronel, once he got like that you knew you were going to find a bunch of little brown toes all over the floor. And oh man, the Anthony stories I could tell ya. One day we were hanging out at this bar and I told him: Anthony, it don't matter what she says, you saw her coming out of that high school. You know she's not 19... But you know Anthony, good ol' Anthony. And this other time, he met this lady and her last name was Lightning and that's when I told him: I don't know about this girl Anthony, there's something about her... something don't click right. Next thing you know she's taking selfies in his bathroom and leaving the toilet seat up.

Opie is in peak form here. It's not that he isn't funny, just that he's only funny in select circumstances. When he's being a bully, and when he has that frat boy pseudo-confidence, when he's in his groove, he can truly refer to himself as "The Destroyer". He is really on fire in this segment. If this was Opie every day, fans would be begging for a reunion right down to this very second.

Some of the songs he sings are good (a surprisingly few amount) My favorite ones by him are the early early stuff which were largely covers, also because his voice was better during the pre 60s years. He was a heartthrob who was influenced by blues early. He just introduced that culture to the mainstream in a pretty heartthrob package. it was fitting for him to go into the movies as early as he did.
