Shaken Not Stirred, but Definitely Sometimes Inappropriate... It's James Bond

April 10, 2025 • The Jocular Pugilists • Season 8 • Episode 5

Join the Jocular Pugilists as they dive wrist-dart first into the world of Ian Fleming’s James Bond—from Moonraker mishaps and shadowy nude intros to wrist-flicking gadgets and Fleming’s very real spy credentials. Phil shares how his mom accidentally took him to a very "educational" Bond film, Tomas outs himself as the Wikipedia of useless trivia, and both discuss why George Lazenby might be the nicest Bond, but also... the worst? It’s nostalgia, history, and questionable parenting decisions—served with a side of martini-fueled mayhem. Oh, and did you know one Bond villain also played jazz with Thelonious Monk? Yeah. That happens too.

Let us know what you think.
