TCBCast 174: Aloha From Hawaii, Part 1

Join Gurdip Ladhar amid a real-time midlife crisis on this week's TCBCast! While Gurdip's struggling with the realization that Twisted Sister's "We're Not Gonna Take It" no longer applies to him, special guest John Cappadona and Justin catch up on his history as an Elvis fan and then take a look at the latest news before shaking Gurdip out of it enough to sit him down in front of the TV for our examination of the iconic 1973 TV Special "Aloha From Hawaii." Filmed and broadcast to several countries across the Pacific Ocean in real time on January 14, 1973, the guys explore how the special came to be before digging into the show itself, wrapping this first part right around "Hound Dog" In case you missed it, here's Justin's appearance on the Hall of Songs Podcast: https://hallofsongs.com/2021/07/03/an-hour-on-elvis-a-retrospective-with-justin-gausman-of-tcbcast/ If you enjoy TCBCast, please consider supporting us with a donation at Patreon.com/TCBCast.

"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.
