Description

Part 2 of our massive review of 1967's "Clambake" centers around the two most memorable musical showpieces in the film: "Confidence" and "Clambake." It's here in Part 2 that we learn the true reason why the Frank Sinatra podcast peeps are here: not only "Confidence"'s infamous similarity to "High Hopes" from the 1959 movie "A Hole in the Head", but Rabia & Felix's recent encounter with a prominent clambake in the "Strictly USA" sequence of the 1949 Sinatra/Kelly musical "On the Town"... and being Australians, they have only the vaguest ideas what a clambake even is. Then, Justin explains to Felix the process of how songs were generally written and selected for Elvis' movies, exploring the alternate possible title songs submitted for "Clambake," and in a twist befitting such an inexplicable movie, Side B of TCBCast 246 closes sincerely commemorating the life and music of the legendary Glen Campbell. "Clambake" is available for purchase or rental on most digital movie platforms. Suddenly: A Frank Sinatra Podcast is available on all major podcast platforms you'll find TCBCast on.

"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.
