Description

This week, enjoy a sampler from the TCBCast Patreon bonus episode archives as Gurdip and Justin revisit the 7th episode of the 2016 HBO program "Vinyl," a show centered around a struggling fictional record label in the 1970s trying to scoop up real life popular artists. In the episode "The King and I," the series protagonists visit Vegas in an attempt to sign Elvis (played by ETA Shawn Klush) to leave RCA and Colonel Parker, and get him back to his rock roots.  Also featured post-discussion are two "Songs of the Month" from the July 2022 episode of TCBCast Now, both songs from Elvis peers as Gurdip spotlights Englebert Humperdinck's 1968 hit "A Man Without Love" and Justin rides into the town of Agua Fria to celebrate Marty Robbins' "Big Iron." TCBCast 279 and the first two volumes of the upcoming Elvis and Country Music miniseries are available now in early access on our Patreon.

"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.
