Description

That's amore. Non paghiamo il fossile. And just like that... Boom, kiss, come on, God bless America. In 1966, a pilot for a potential Three Coins in the Fountain TV series was filmed on location in Rome. It only aired on TV once in August 1970, was not picked up thereafter and has never been made available ever since. Probably very few people have ever seen it at all. This week, we've unearthed it - and since it's turned out to be in the public domain, you can now watch it in full with English subtitles on the new SUDDENLY YouTube channel.  In what somehow turns out to be our longest episode to date, Justin Gausman of TCBCast: An Unofficial Elvis Presley Fan Podcast joins us to examine "Caesar's Ghost", the first and only episode of the rejected Three Coins series. Is this the best manifestation of the franchise? Could it have been the Sex and the City of the 1960s if someone gave it a chance? We say yes - and it also turns out that this very obscure piece of lost media has significant overlap with the Elvis movie universe.  That's right; because three-and-a-half hours wasn't enough, we're talking about Three Coins in the Fountain once again. We're back to talk about this obscure pilot, and also as a mark of respect to Ultima Generazione (Last Generation), the climate activists who turned the Trevi water black just  weeks ago. During our record, we fire up the Trevi Fountain webcam once again and witness street sweepers, selfie-takers and a very special surprise that you'll love. Also, stay tuned after the closing theme for a bonus 45-minute discussion with Rabia & Justin about the future of AI in music, recorded spontaneously at 8am due to a timezone mix-up.  Watch Three Coins in the Fountain ("Caesar's Ghost") on the SUDDENLY YouTube channel here.  Tune into the Trevi Fountain webcam live as you listen here.  Justin is the co-host of the highly recommended show, TCBCast: An Unofficial Elvis Presley Podcast. You can also join his Patreon to watch the "Blue Suede Reviews", and check out his appearance on the YouTube show EAP Society here.

SUDDENLY... a radical re-examination of Frank Sinatra's legacy for a new generation; a historical deep dive into his work, beginning with his 60-year film career. We're using Sinatra to talk about the social context of the 20th century from a trans, queer & progressive perspective. We're not here to cancel but to contemplate the uncancellable. hosted by two Australian transgender millennials, Rabia & Felix. insta & twitter: @suddenlypod, email: suddenlypod@gmail.com
