James Bond & Friends – Episode 0098: Tomorrow’s News Today

The latest episode of James Bond & Friends is now available on Apple Podcasts and elsewhere.

What has been going on in the world of Bond recently?

In this episode, we cover the latest news and current events in the world of James Bond. With the long-lead articles about No Time To Die starting to drip out, we discuss the points raised by Daniel Craig, Lea Seydoux, and Ana de Armas in interviews. Along the way, we suggest some alternative approaches to publicity over the well-worn trope of being a ‘different Bond girl,’ catch Roger Moore in Black Widow, ponder if the 007 series has so much influence over the spy genre that there is no room left to move for upcoming properties, ask if the billion-dollar club is gone for good, and bask in David’s statistics.

The recording took place on July 23rd, 2021 in the USA, UK, New Zealand, and Spain.
