The Man With The Golden Gun


Bob Chipman joins us again for our latest 'woke brawl' with 007 and this time we're setting our sights on The Man With the Golden Gun from 1974. Listen as we praise the suave menace of Christopher Lee, pine for the lost Alice Cooper theme song we might have had, and encounter that most rare of circumstances: a James Bond film Agatha enjoyed!! Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and intrusive slide whistles.

Our theme song is "Nostalgia TV" by Edward Jonathan Blakeley through Lynne Publishing.

Slide whistles on car stunts; yay or nay? Is a golden gun a practical weapon for close-range duelling? How many lead Bond girls is too many for one of these movies? Leave a comment and keep the conversation going.

Live and Let Die

Bob 'Moviebob' Chipman joins us for another outing with James Bond, but this time we all get Moore than we bargained for... Roger Moore, as we take on one of the most offensive films of the 007 series with the blaxploitation-influenced thriller Live and Let Die. Listen as we grapple with the movie's incredibly racist plot and characters, take aim at Moore's portrayal of the venerable super-spy, and ponder why the filmmakers decided an obnoxious redneck sheriff should serve as the film's comic relief. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and lots of poorly-served character actors.

Do you have a more clever way to corner the U.S. heroin market? Can you explain why the chief villain chooses to wear that terrible disguise? Have advice on how to get away from an island of crocodiles? Leave a comment and keep the conversation going.

Diamonds Are Forever

Bob Chipman joins us for our annual outing with secret agent James Bond and this mission may be our most grueling yet as we cut down the cubic zirconia of 007 films, Diamonds Are Forever. Listen as we discuss Sean Connery's perfunctory return to the franchise, measure the mortality rate for women who sleep with James Bond, and contemplate more efficient methods of smuggling diamonds. Warning: Contains explicit language, spoilers, and car stunts that defy physics.
