Description

Due to extenuating circumstances, we've had to push our previously scheduled topic back one week, and so at the last minute, Justin and Bec just decided to have a very fun, very laid back Elvis chat. Beyond reacting to the new clips from Elliott Wheeler's "Elvis" score released this week in WB's "The Story of the Score", the hosts debate which approach to experiencing Elvis's music the first time provides better insight (chronological or at random), Bec tells us a little about her hobbies and interests outside Elvis, which leads into a discussion about movie musicals and which Elvis films fit into that mold, Justin follows up a bit more on last week's "Today" review, and there's a whole host of bits and pieces of Elvis-related chatter on albums, concerts, and more. Hopefully this is as enjoyable to listen to as it was to record. It's not as information-dense or structured as most typical recent episodes and there's no Songs of the Week this week, but we think we still hit upon some nice insights. We'll be back next week to talk about our favorite Elvis songwriters, cover Patreon-picked Songs of the Week, and Gurdip will be back soon as well!

"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.
