What makes you a heretic? Journalist Andrew Gold believes that, in an age of group-think and tribes, we need heretics - those who use unconventional wisdom to speak out against their own groups, from cancelled comedians and radical feminists to cult defectors and vigilantes hunting deviants.
Learn from my guests how to rebel, think differently and resist social contagion. From Triggernometry's Francis Foster and the world's most cancelled man Graham Linehan to ex-Hasidic Jew Julia Haart and gender critical atheist Richard Dawkins.

Introduction
Graceland, the iconic home of the legendary Elvis Presley, has long been a symbol of rock 'n' roll history and a pilgrimage site for fans worldwide. Located in Memphis, Tennessee, this 13.8-acre estate has captured the hearts and imaginations of millions since Elvis first purchased it in 1957. However, recent financial struggles, exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic, have put Graceland's future at risk. In light of these challenges, Elvis Presley's granddaughter, Riley Keough, has stepped up to lead the charge in preserving this cultural landmark for generations to come.
The History of Graceland
Graceland's story begins in 1939 when Dr. Thomas Moore and his wife Ruth built the Colonial Revival-style mansion. The property was named after Ruth's aunt, Grace Toof, and originally spanned 500 acres. In 1957, a young Elvis Presley, already a rising star in the music industry, purchased Graceland for $102,500. The mansion would serve as his primary residence for the next 20 years, until his untimely death in 1977.
During his time at Graceland, Elvis made numerous modifications to the property, reflecting his personal tastes and larger-than-life personality. The mansion's interior is a testament to Elvis's eclectic style, featuring unique rooms like the famous Jungle Room, complete with an indoor waterfall and Polynesian-inspired decor. Other notable areas include the Music Room, where Elvis entertained friends and family, and the Meditation Garden, where he found solace and ultimately chose as his final resting place.
Graceland Opens to the Public
After Elvis's passing, his ex-wife Priscilla Presley recognized the public's desire to connect with the King of Rock 'n' Roll and made the decision to open Graceland to the public in 1982. Since then, the estate has welcomed millions of visitors from around the globe, offering tours that provide a glimpse into Elvis's private world.
Graceland's transformation into a museum has allowed fans to explore the mansion, grounds, and outbuildings, each filled with Elvis's personal belongings, memorabilia, and iconic costumes. The Elvis Presley Car Museum showcases his impressive collection of vehicles, including the famous pink Cadillac. The Trophy Building houses countless awards, gold records, and other accolades from Elvis's illustrious career, serving as a testament to his enduring legacy.
Graceland's Cultural Significance
Beyond its role as a tourist attraction, Graceland holds immense cultural significance. It serves as a tangible connection to one of the most influential figures in music history and a symbol of the American Dream. Elvis's rise from humble beginnings to international stardom is embodied in the grandeur of Graceland, and the estate has become an integral part of the American cultural landscape.
In recognition of its historical and cultural importance, Graceland was designated a National Historic Landmark in 2006. This distinction underscores the estate's value not only to Elvis fans but also to the broader story of American popular culture.
The Graceland Experience
Visiting Graceland is a multi-faceted experience that allows fans to connect with Elvis on a deeper level. The mansion tour is the centerpiece of the visit, guiding guests through the rooms where Elvis lived, worked, and relaxed. Each space is meticulously preserved, offering a window into his daily life and showcasing his unique style.
One of the most iconic rooms in the mansion is the Jungle Room, known for its vibrant green shag carpeting, carved wooden furniture, and indoor waterfall. This room exemplifies Elvis's love for the exotic and his penchant for creating spaces that reflected his interests and personality.
The Music Room, another highlight of the tour, features a black baby grand piano and floor-to-ceiling drapes, creating an intimate atmosphere where one can imagine Elvis entertaining friends and family. The room also houses Elvis's record collection and various musical instruments, underscoring his deep connection to music.
For many visitors, the most poignant moment of the tour is the visit to the Meditation Garden. This serene space serves as the final resting place for Elvis, his parents Vernon and Gladys Presley, and his grandmother Minnie Mae. Fans often leave flowers and other tokens of their adoration at the gravesites, creating a powerful display of the enduring love and respect for the King.
Beyond the mansion, Graceland's grounds offer additional insights into Elvis's life and career. The Racquetball Building houses a collection of his stage costumes and memorabilia, while the Elvis Presley Car Museum showcases his impressive fleet of vehicles, including motorcycles, the iconic pink Cadillac, and even a tractor.
Annual Events and Pilgrimages
Graceland has become more than just a museum; it is a gathering place for Elvis fans worldwide. Each year, the estate hosts several events that draw thousands of visitors, fostering a sense of community and shared appreciation for Elvis's legacy.
The most significant of these events is Elvis Week, held annually in August to commemorate the anniversary of Elvis's death. During this time, fans from around the globe descend upon Graceland to participate in a series of concerts, panel discussions, and memorial events, culminating in a candlelight vigil at the Meditation Garden. This outpouring of love and remembrance is a testament to the enduring impact Elvis has had on his fans.
In January, Graceland celebrates Elvis's birthday with a series of special events, including tours, movie screenings, and a cake-cutting ceremony. These celebrations provide an opportunity for fans to come together and honor Elvis's life and achievements in a festive atmosphere.
The Graceland Archives
Beyond the public displays, Graceland is home to an extensive archive of Elvis-related materials. The Graceland Archives house a vast collection of photographs, documents, and artifacts that provide an unparalleled resource for researchers and historians interested in Elvis's life and career.
The archives include personal items, such as Elvis's clothing, jewelry, and books, as well as professional materials like contracts, scripts, and sheet music. These artifacts offer a rare glimpse into the man behind the legend and serve as an invaluable resource for preserving and understanding his legacy.
Graceland's archival team works diligently to catalog, preserve, and digitize these materials, ensuring that they will be available for future generations. The archives also form the basis for special exhibitions and displays that offer visitors a deeper understanding of Elvis's life and impact on popular culture.
Current Challenges and Preservation Efforts
Despite its cultural significance and enduring popularity, Graceland has recently faced financial challenges that threaten its future. The COVID-19 pandemic has had a devastating impact on the tourism industry, and Graceland has not been immune to these struggles. With visitor numbers plummeting, the estate has grappled with reduced revenues and the difficult task of maintaining operations while prioritizing the health and safety of staff and guests.
In response to these challenges, Riley Keough, Elvis Presley's granddaughter, has emerged as a champion for Graceland's preservation. Keough has taken an active role in raising awareness about the estate's financial difficulties and advocating for its protection.
One of Keough's key initiatives has been to launch fundraising campaigns, seeking support from Elvis fans and philanthropic organizations. These efforts aim to secure the necessary resources to maintain Graceland's operations, fund restoration projects, and ensure that the estate can weather the current crisis.
Keough has also leveraged her platform to raise public awareness about the importance of preserving Graceland. Through interviews and social media outreach, she has shared her personal connection to the estate and emphasized its cultural significance, encouraging fans to visit and support Graceland during these challenging times.
In addition to her fundraising and awareness efforts, Keough is involved in legal actions aimed at protecting Graceland's future. These efforts seek to ensure that the estate remains a public trust, accessible to fans and preserved as a historical site for generations to come.
Looking to the Future
As Graceland navigates the current challenges, its future depends on the success of ongoing preservation efforts and the ability to adapt to changing circumstances. Riley Keough's dedication to her grandfather's legacy is a vital step in safeguarding this cultural treasure, but the road ahead will require continued support from fans, philanthropists, and the broader community.
One key aspect of securing Graceland's future is finding innovative ways to engage with audiences and generate revenue. This may involve embracing new technologies, such as virtual tours and online exhibits, to reach fans who may not be able to visit in person. Collaborations with other cultural institutions, music industry partners, and educational organizations could also help to broaden Graceland's reach and ensure its relevance for new generations.
Ultimately, the future of Graceland is intertwined with the enduring legacy of Elvis Presley. As long as his music continues to inspire and his story continues to captivate, there will be a need to preserve and celebrate the home that meant so much to him. Through the efforts of Riley Keough and the dedicated team at Graceland, there is hope that this iconic estate will continue to serve as a beacon of music history and a testament to the enduring power of Elvis's legacy.
