    TCBCast: An Unofficial Elvis Presley Fan Podcast

    “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.

    Show notes

    This week, Justin & Gurdip reflect on 50 years since the '69 Sessions, 60 years since "The Day the Music Died" and 1 year of TCBCast. Thank you to everyone who has joined us this past year on this crazy journey through Elvis' career and music. We hope this next year is even better. Listen to the end for a special surprise from Justin that takes the show full-circle.

    Featured Songs of the Week:

    TCBCast 051: "Guys... Rescue Me!" Harum Scarum Part 2 Jan 29, 2019
    Show notes

    In this thrilling conclusion to the review of Harum Scarum, Justin loses it to "Golden Coins," discuss the aftermath of the film's release, and the TCBCast team finally answers whether they think this is Elvis' Worst Movie. (Spoiler: You might be surprised!) For Song of the Week, guest host Ryan Droste picks a near-miss Springsteen song that could have been an Elvis classic, Gurdip tackles a country-rock hit from '61 and Justin closes the episode highlighting one of Elvis' biggest post-50s rockers.

    Featured Songs of the Week:

    Gurdip: Little Sister

    Justin: (You're the) Devil in Disguise

    Ryan: Fire (Bruce Springsteen/Pointer Sisters)


    TCBCast 050: Elvis' Worst Movie? Harum Scarum Part 1 Jan 21, 2019
    Show notes

    As most people know, in 1965, famous movie star-singer Johnny Tyrone was kidnapped while visiting the Middle Eastern country of Lunarkand before mysteriously arriving safely back in the United States a few days later. But very few people know the true story of what actually happened on that trip. Thanks to the Freedom of Information Act (and MGM), TCBCast has uncovered an amazing true tale of espionage, adventure, romance, political intrigue and attempted assassinations, all covered up by the government for over 50 years. Show regular Ryan Droste joins us for this historic episode of TCBCast.


    TCBCast 049: The Week Before Elvis Jan 15, 2019
    Show notes

    This week's TCBCast starts off strong with a ton of news from Elvis' birthday, including a new tribute single "The Pledge" by fan musicians Chris Fillmore and Ron Glaser. Justin quizzes Gurdip in the new Trivia Game section and then for the main topic, Professor Ladhar cracks open the history books to March 1956, the week before "Heartbreak Hotel" first appeared on the charts, to see what the pop music landscape was.

    Justin's song of the week highlights Elvis' cover of a Statler Bros tune, but then all hell breaks loose when Gurdip pulls out a Johnny Cash crossover hit from SUN that he classifies as rock, but Justin classifies as country, leading to a country music debate you don't want to miss as Justin tries to convince Gurdip he doesn't hate country music, he's just a poser.

    Featured Songs of the Week:

    Gurdip: Ballad of a Teenage Queen (Johnny Cash)

    Justin: Susan When She Tried


    TCBCast 048: The "Lost" Episode + Bubba Ho-Tep and the Cosmic Blood Suckers Review Jan 09, 2019
    Show notes

    We celebrate Elvis' 84th birthday by Justin losing half the audio for this week's episode! What a great start to 2019! Justin talks today's news from the NBC All-Star Special, asks for you to send us YOUR story of how you became an Elvis fan, then spotlights some of the best and most interesting "off-air" moments from TCBCast's first year.

    Then, in lieu of Song of the Week, Justin's review of the Bubba Ho-Tep prequel comic is rescued from this week's otherwise lost episode. Sorry to everyone but hopefully you enjoy these cool sidebar discussions about Elvis & his career.


    TCBCast 047: Christmas Memories Dec 31, 2018
    Show notes

    Gurdip: Poor Little Fool (Ricky Nelson)

    Justin: Reach Out To Jesus

    Show notes

    Following up from last week's episode, Gurdip, Justin & Jamie continue an in-depth discussion of Hound Dog, Don't Be Cruel and Anyway You Want Me, and why Elvis' versions of his hits changed over the years. Gurdip's Song of the Week is just "too much" while Justin's song, from one of Elvis' contemporaries, somehow proves it's a small world when his research leads right back to him! Check out Jamie Kelley at jamiekelleymusic.com as well as his instrumentals project, justawesomekaraoke.com.

    Featured Songs of the Week:
