The Talk Show Bond Anthology

In this past week’s The Talk Show John and Dave respectfully tread into the hallowed Talk Show ground of discussing James Bond. Their discussion got me thinking about the segments Dan and John did talking through each movie back in 2011.

The James Bond movies are some of my favorite movies of all time. I remember very fondly following along with Dan and John each week as they made their way through the first twenty three films. Those conversations still stand as one of my favorite podcast series.

In 2012 (just before Skyfall came out) I had the notion to go back and re-listen to them all. Unfortunately since they were done as a segment inside of regular Talk Show episodes it was initially a bit tricky to find them all. However, once I was able to isolate them the re-listen was worth it.

As I was thinking about this all this week I realized that I had never shared the isolated tracks I had put together. Which seemed like an awful shame.

Below are each of their discussions and the associated The Talk Show episode. I hope you enjoy them as much as I have.
