0:00 interesting over on the Netflix. Oh, God. This this is crazy. This is like I love that you're the one that finds these stories because I don't see any of these. You know, Jacobson every week would like let me tell you this. I'm scared. Shit, I saw. Yeah, people at work. Like every single week you come in and you're like, so I watched a documentary on Netflix and I'm like, oh, God, that's so true. Yeah, so this this thing is crazy. This is like Tiger King, maybe even crazier than Tiger King, to be honest. It's called the Kings of Tupelo.
0:42 I'm not going to I'm going to try not to like spoil any of this. I feel like none of this is going to make sense. You have a Elvis impersonator. Who's brother was also an Elvis impersonator. So then they did a what they called a double trouble because I guess Elvis had a twin that died, it was never born. So then like one of the brothers was like the Elvis twin that was never born. I don't know. This is like Mississippi. Crazy drama. But anyways, you have this Elvis impersonator who gets wrapped into this conspiracy that hospitals are selling body parts, hospitals and morgues, I believe, are selling body parts on the black market.
1:31 And then this guy has a lot of mental health issues. Everyone says he's crazy. And then turns out he's not crazy. And then so he tries to get legislation pushed to try to prevent selling body parts on the black market. But he does have mental health issues. So he is kind of crazy. I'm sorry. But anyway, so there's that. But then you get caught up into a feud between this Elvis impersonator and this black belt karate instructor who also then tried to become a politician.
2:14 And then they like have a falling out. One guy tried to steal the other guy's ex-wife. I don't know. Anyways, that leads to a presidential assassination attempt on Barack Obama. It is insane. Like it's crazy. And I see here the notes. This all happened in Mississippi. Yeah, Mississippi. OK. Yeah. First off, that part. Like it's there, Florida. Yeah. OK. And to people from the South. This is why we think you're weird.
2:54 We can't count the three. I can tell you that. I'm kidding. This is why we think the South is weird because this shit don't happen in Tacoma. Yeah. No, that's that's very true. I like I was watching this and I was telling my wife, I'm like, holy shit. And I was like, we're never moving to Mississippi. Like there's never. Have you been there? Have you been to Mississippi? Yes, have been a couple of times just kind of like passing through. I have like a few friends that were from Mississippi. Yeah, haven't been. I don't know. I didn't do a whole lot of staying around in Mississippi.
3:37 Have you at all? I've been I've been down through there more than once. And it is one of the states where I frequently say you should have a fucking passport to come down there. Like it's it's not in legit. And I'm not the only person who said this. Like all parts of America are like different countries. And that is especially true for places like Mississippi and Alabama. Right. Florida is like three countries in and of themselves just in their state. So let's not even go there. But you get down into Mississippi and Alabama. And I believe Mississippi was just the state that got robbed by Brett Favre. Formerly the quarterback for the Green Bay Packers stole a bunch of welfare funds to build a volleyball stadium for his daughter's college where she was playing volleyball.
4:29 Did this this is why? This is why we think it's weird down there. Oh, it's crazy. Like if you if you want a really good look into the craziness of Mississippi, watch this documentary, you will not be disappointed. I like it's something that like put your phone down and you're just going to be tuned in for the train wreck the entire time. One of my favorite lines. So the Secret Service has this has a person in custody and goes, did you send a rice in to the president of the United States?
5:14 And the biggest response was, what are you talking about? I don't even like rice. I don't even buy rice. I can't even think the last time I like had rice to eat. And I was like, and then like Secret Service literally because they're interviewing like a FBI guy and he's like, and are they talking to the Elvis impersonator guy? This is who they're questioning. So I will say that they were talking to this. So like the FBI guy like turned to Secret Service and was like, I don't think he's smart enough to pull this off. And I was like, oh, God, oh, God, like, I don't know. It's you have to check it out. If you liked the Tiger King, even the same director of the Tiger King did the Chimp Crazy, I think is the name of that one about people owning like chimps that end up ripping your face off when they get too big.
6:09 He did a documentary on that as well. Not the same director did this one, but it's on the same kind of craziness level to me. Kings of Tupelo on Netflix. Check it out. So yeah, by the way, this is again, one of those things that frustrates me about Netflix, right? Is Netflix has so many dark quarters with so much interesting content that they never advertise anywhere. They don't advertise it for shit. They're just like, which put this shit on there. And then you find out about it like two years later and you're like, what, how long has been here? Right? I think. Hang on. I think. Like figure out when this came out.
6:49 I'm curious, right? Because again, this is this is right up Netflix's M.O. We make all this shit and we tell no one. We tell no one, not even our own viewers, right? It'll pop up on your little recommended page for a day and a half and then it's gone. Oh, so it it came out, supposedly in December of 2024. So you you managed to find it relatively quickly. Congratulations. I guarantee you know what else I'd never even heard anything about this until you put it in the rundown today. Good job, Netflix, for having this kind of like wacky noodle goofy content that Jake and bring to the show every week.
7:34 Like, this is weird shit. Netflix is the Franks red hot of streaming services. Oh, then the chats like that. They cancel it because nobody watched it. Yeah. Yeah. That's exactly what happened. Netflix makes a thing. They don't advertise it. Nobody watches it. And then they quietly cancel it and then everyone's like, wait, this is great. And then they're like, oh, OK. Too late. Because we're Netflix. Oh, oh my God. Good job, Netflix. At least we're all prepared for the next pandemic because we know we'll be able to go back to Netflix and find random shit. So, anyway, have you seen Keesah Tupelo?
