Description

Professor Ladhar's class is back in session as Justin cracks his textbook open to March 28, 1960 (the week before Stuck on You first appeared on the charts) to explore the cultural context Elvis was returning from the Army into. Gurdip almost gets away with skipping trivia thanks to a smooth topic transition but Justin catches him, leading to the first mid-episode Trivia section. The guys end the main topic discussing pondering which Elvis movie is the most memeable, then for Song of the Week, Justin keeps in the theme of 1960 with the B-side of Elvis' comeback single, while Gurdip finds paradise in a 1956 track we just featured two episodes ago - is there more for the guys to say about Gurdip's jazzy, bluesy rocker with no alternate takes? You might be surprised! Featured Songs of the Week Justin: Fame and Fortune Gurdip: Anyplace is Paradise

"Elvis is history," Carl Perkins once said, "and anytime anyone or anything becomes history, whether it be Pearl Harbor or Elvis, it will never go away. The world will never tire of his songs." TCBCast is an unofficial fan podcast featuring co-hosts Gurdip Ladhar and Justin Gausman, along with regular guest co-hosts Ryan Droste and Bec Wyles, plus an array of Elvis fans and experts setting out to better understand that history, and those songs. Tackling topics from throughout Elvis's lifetime and beyond, TCBCast seeks to offer thoughtful, intelligent, heartfelt and honest discourse on Presley's career, his influences, the people who made his work possible, and the cultural phenomenon surrounding his iconography. TCBCast is not associated with or endorsed by Graceland, Elvis Presley Enterprises, Authentic Brands Group or Sony.
