TCBCast 187: Bubba Ho-Tep

After threatening to review it since nearly the start of the show's run, just in time for Halloween, Justin & Gurdip finally review Don Coscarelli's 2002 horror-comedy-drama cult hit "Bubba Ho-Tep," starring Bruce Campbell and Ossie Davis. It leads to a heated debate over whether protagonist Sebastian Haff is really supposed to be Elvis, and which host believes what might surprise you! Then, for Song of the Week, both guys take things light and breezy with Justin spotlighting the lullaby origins of "Puppet on a String" from 1965's "Girl Happy" for me while Gurdip is inspired by the recent Peloton remix of "Catching On Fast" to spotlight that 1963 recording from "Kissin' Cousins."
