I’ve never liked the way the word ‘alibi’ is used in a lot of popular references, such as the Four Seasons song. It is often used in the sense of a falsehood or and excuse, when and alibi is nothing of the sort - it is evidence of being elsewhere during a given event.
First, to Althouse, run, don’t walk, to see Clint Eastwood’s Four Seasons film Jersey Boys.
Second, to Donald Trump: By all means present your evidence of election fraud to the courts for their consideration. But in the event the evidence fails to persuade the Supreme Court (which you were instrumental in shaping into a 6-3 majority), remember that refusing to concede defeat is worse than un-American: It’s unmanly.

I saw the Broadway show.

I talk about that in the podcast.

Caught red-handed - I shoulda listened first
I also saw the Jersey Boys stage play (in Fort Lauderdale, a dozen years ago or so -- I don't remember who was in it, but it was good). My recollection of the late '50's and '60's is that a lot of the popular male singers and groups went out of their way to downplay masculinity -- even including the Beatles, with their "feminine" long hair, and obviouly Frankie Valli with his falsetto voice. Popular commentary said that this was an effort to avoid being sexually threatening to the teeny-boppers. Elvis (the Pelvis) was an exception, and did threaten with his masculinity, and as I recall he did have a successful career.
Sinatra is an interesting case. He started young waif-like and non-threatening and was (supposedly) mobbed by bobby-soxers (some of it was probably publicity). Later he developed a distinctive masculine swagger in his persona.
Take a look at Tex Avery's "Little 'Tinker" at around 2:50 for a sendup of the early persona. (Unfortunately the link is to vimeo as Warner does a "good" job keeping their content off of youtube).

I watched a documentary about Sinatra that said that all his life he was sensitive about having a penis that was abnormally large! He felt like a freak!
That's fits the "big and small" issue that's in this podcast. You might think it's very strange for a man to feel bad that his penis is very large, but it could be that it made the rest of his body seem small.
Ava Gardner famously said he was "only 110 pounds, but 10 pounds of it is cock" (and also that being in bed with him was like being in bed with a woman).

With a woman who isn't built like a cow, it can be hard to achieve penetration when you're really big, yes, even when she's excited and wet, and also the girl tires/wears out/gets sore faster, and sometimes you go too deep and hit their cervix or something the wrong way.
Also getting good head is more of a challenge.
Some girls may even see it and say No way! Though usually they think better of it; generally if they haven't seen such a thing before, they have FOMO. Ladies are ruled by FOMO. Mostly.
