The Presidents and the Kings

On December 21st, 1970, the President Richard Nixon met Elvis Presley, the King of Rock'n'Roll, in the Oval Office: 

Two years later, on December 19th, 1972, President Nixon had a brief condolence phone call with a very young Senator-elect Joe Biden who had just lost his wife and daughter in a horrific accident:

Nixon would resign just under two years later after the Watergate scandal and Biden would go on to serve as a US Senator, Vice-President, and President for the next 52 years. 

And on April 26, 2024, President Biden visited Howard Stern, the King of All Media, in his studio where he talked about his life, career, and the tragedies and triumphs that shaped his life:







All I can say is that, after listening to this interview and in this very crazy world, we're really lucky to have Joe Biden in the White House and Howard Stern on the airwaves. They keep us decent, they keep us sane.
