Joining Glenn the Geek will be co-host for the day Rafael Valle, owner of one of the most popular Palominos today; Ivory Pal. They will be joined by Alene Alexander, the barn manager for Graceland since Elvis death in 1977 who will share stories of Elvis' horses.

"I grew up listening to Elvis, so it is a thrill for the Horse Radio Network to be able to broadcast from his stables at Graceland. This is one of those rare opportunities where we can use the voice of radio to share the passion for horses from a legend whose memory will never fade," says Glenn the Geek, Founder of the Horse Radio Network.

Elvis was an accomplished rider and loved horses. He kept many on his property at Graceland in the heart of Memphis, Tennessee and was fastidious about the barn and the care of his horses. His favorite mount was a golden Palomino quarter horse named Rising Run, he loved that horse so much he named his barn The House of the Rising Sun.

The Horse Radio Network is indebted to Rafael Valle for arranging this unique broadcast opportunity for the horse world. Rafael is an amazing horseman with a famous championship Tennessee Walking horse named Ivory Pal.
