About this episode
Dana Gould hosts a holiday episode featuring guests Dr. Kevin Fitzgerald and Greg Proops, discussing veterinary medicine, comedy, and the occult aspects of Elvis Presley.
Happy holidays! It's the post-Thanksgiving pre-Christmas episode of The Dana Gould Hour Podcast. I think we can squeeze one more in before Christmas. That's certainly my intention, which is not to say that this episode is not what you'd call BOFFO. Dr. Kevin Fitzgerald is here. Kevin is known for his TV show Emergency Room Vets on Animal Planet. In addition to being a veterinarian, he is an animal preservationist, a conservationist and before that, he was a rock 'n' roll tour bouncer. There are stranger tales to be told, I'm sure, but I can't say I know of any off the top of my head. Kevin has a memoir out now, telling the details of all the many lives he's lead, called It Started With A Turtle , and he's here today to tell us all about it. Comedian par excellence Greg Proops is here to tell us about his new comedy album, Free State Of California, out now. True Tales From Weirdsville takes a deep dive into a side of The King Of Rock 'n' Roll that you might not know about. Elvis Presley, practitioner of the occult. It's weird, but it's all true, and that makes it just the tale for True Tales From Weirdsville. And now, it is on to our filthy business. https://www.DanaGould.com
