Description

This week, as voted by TCBCast Patreon supporters, Justin and Gurdip are diving into the 1974 spoken word release "Having Fun With Elvis On Stage"... is it as bad as everyone has said or has it been misunderstood all these decades? (Spoiler alert: yeah... yeah, it's bad.) For Song of the Week, the winning patron-poll songs both happen to be from the same 1970 session and same album, Elvis Country, with Gurdip tackling the underrated "I Really Don't Want to Know," originally by Eddy Arnold. Meanwhile, Justin reflects on how it's "Funny How Time Slips Away," while touching on various iterations including songwriter Willie Nelson, Al Green, and original by Billy Walker.  If you enjoy TCBCast, please consider supporting us with a donation at Patreon.com/TCBCast.

"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.
