Viva Pod Vegas #028 – Clambake (1967)
Oops, it took too long, but Viva Pod Vegas is back! We’re trying to figure out what a Clambake is, and why there’s only one in this movie. After opening the long-overdue mailbag, we learn how to pronounce Fabares and talk about this movie being a pivot point in Elvis’s career and life. We try to make sense of Elvis as a water ski instructor who only has one student, a world in which no one’s attracted to Elvis, and whether “The Prince and the Pauper” works if there’s a second prince. We also have fun exploring Elvis is a scientist and the surprise “proud dad” twist! We’re caught off guard by a surprise marriage proposal. We try to guess what Stay Away, Joe will be about — and don’t come anywhere close to correct. But hey — Mamma’s little baby loves clambake, clambake!
