S4E10: You Only Live Twice With No Notes

A year and two listens later yelling: "You've missed the 'Kung Fu' school and Japanese School Girl (by merit of their outfits) martial arts rescue! You would have so many thoughts on this if it had merited thinking about!"

It's weird to hear about the announcer guy who says everything twice for ages, then actually watch the scene and it's a guy who only says things once because he's repeating what Blofeld told him to say

I thought the first woman he meets was Aki, who Connery keeps calling “Acky” Acky gets killed by the poison drops, and then Tiger comes up with the “become Japanese” plan to a different woman Tiger tells him “she has a face like a pig”. The second woman is Kissy

KJB lingerie concept: a bra that opens around the nipples like the gun barrel opening

Please do a shirt of the heist season art I would even pre-order it

As a blacksmith, I would genuinely buy a KJB anvil.

Wasn't sure where else to post this, but for robbery season please consider Sugar and Spice. Cheerleader bank heist movie from 2001 written, directed, and starring women.

I currently (24/3/25) have 75$ usd in a secure location. Please sell the shirt i will buy one i will post pictures.

I'm sure it's already been given, but I do keep notes for the numbers for each SCUM score (it's a way to kill time) alongside the awards, and the original numbers for You Only Live Twice were 5, 8, 2, and 7.

Proposing the Pajama Pit Ribbon for Underwhelming Villainy (the design for which could include the motto "just use a gun")

Absolute favorite lair design, just defined it for the whole genre after this. Apparently actually cost a million dollars to make the set

"Where are the ninjas getting their weapons? They're quite specialized, the throwing stars, the kunai with chain" the fucking actual MBA Gyrojet rocket guns! Talk about specialized, the ammo for one of those is more than 200$ per round today

Looking forward to jumping straight from this to the original episode - seeing what the shift has been

3 minutes in and nova gives tacit permission to replace her on the podcast. I guess getting your affairs in order is now an important part of submitting your US visa application.

Yes I would buy and wear a Brosnan shirt how is this even a question

"First, you become a Japanese"...[Cut to Sean Connery in the worst yellow-face ever.] Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto awoke from his nightmare. What he'd seen shook him deeply. It could not be allowed to happen. The West had to be destroyed.

None of you are allowed to die! I'm sure I'm not alone when I say that this podcast has become a cornerstone of my (admittedly weak) grip on sanity!!!!

Thailand- cheap food, good beaches and over the counter HRT

Here is an idea. Evil Genius 1 & 2 stream. That would be pretty fun.

This episode rocked. I would love a re-release of the Season 1 KJB movie poster, I was so sad I didn’t get one.

Siamese vodka

Kill James Bond hoodie! I need one in my life ❤️🙏🥳

Please do branded hard hats. I've always wanted a hard hat but I want it to be a strange obe

i'll keep it real i am not buying that shirt

I'd buy a KJB branded anvil. I take self defence seriously.

*Sammy Davis Jr. Voice*: "🎶SPECTRE Eleven . . .🎶"

Nonce torpedoes are against the Geneva Conventions!

Yesss, love these throwbacks to what it felt like when I had amnesia. They can never come soon enough.

Hell yeah to the next bonus. Literally kept thinking of it during the discussion of the "step on me" scene.

Perhaps P lingerie is a great trademark for a particular set of laceys knickers for gender queer persons who still need a pouch.

NZ MENTIONED RAHHHH 🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿🇳🇿

*Leo DiCaprio pointing meme* My name in the jazz outro!

I need the Brosnan shirt I've been waiting so long

Make more kiwi friends more reason to come here

NEW ZEALAND MENTIONED WHAT THE FUCK IS A SHORT DISTANCE INTERNATIONAL FLIGHT

Star Trek space burials in the eyeglasses case are my favorite. Also I am a huge nerd, the sunglasses case they shoot people out in is a proton torpedo casing so it is pretty durable and probably made to survive atmosphere

I can't usually partake of merch shirts myself, but I would keep one on hand for the occasional visiting twink.

I love the impulse to give Spectre 11 an award and wonder if an award for "earning the metal plate" would be possible

I feel like there's so many episodes recently where I've really wanted to watch the movie beforehand thank fuck today's a no notes

How many times do you live with notes

Abby fighting the good fight against biplane erasure.

cannot wait for spectre FUCKING eleven

this is just good advice in 2025 `Tiger Tanaka: • First, you become a Japanese. • Second, you train 🚂 hard and quickly to become a ninja 🥷 , like us. • And third, to give you extra special cover, you take a wife.` ===== the UK and US are gaining brain worms and it is impacting ordinary life, so it is good to get citizenship somewhere else develop your hobbies and your hyperfixations, and do it in a group setting with one’s blokes finding a partner who you sacrifice for and do labor keeps people sane in a world of madness, get yourself out of your head and do some direct action / work this response is in jest, but seriously this is practical life advice now a days

"...until it's just kind of a podcast of us chatting" I see November's Ocean's Eleven plan of tricking Devon and Abby into being her friends is working. Now where's that saxophone noodler? And I would buy the brosnan shirt. Maybe not the anvil, I'd have to completely redesign the room around it.

A bit of Hyperfixation Mode: technically “ninja grade” metal would be just normal metal since they historically didn’t have that many supplies. It’s why so many of their tools are just modified farming equipment. Kusarigama is just a rope/chain with a hand scythe on one end and a weight on the other, and a Kunai was just a small hand trowel. So technically you could label cooking knives “Ninja Grade” without changing anything and it would technically be accurate.

Dev you misunderstand, my desire to wear the most bonkers t shirts and modify them into crop tops and muscle Tees knows no bounds

“Kill Bond…now!” happens right after Specter 11 goes to the pyjamas. Abbie is right.

This was your most frantic and insane one yet, thank you

If it's based on Spotify listens then I'm afraid I'm not helping to prevent the bomb from going off. I just listen through Patreon for some fecking reason....

I WILL BUY YHE SHIRT!

The segment about dropping an anvil on Bond made me laugh and then come up with an idea: for each movie, identify the funniest moment for the protagonist to die. Truly killing James Bond.

The Federation flag is definitely draped over Spock's torpedo. It was removed before he was shot out.

First, you become a Muppet.

I will buy a brosnan shirt

...entirely JapaneEeeEeEese.

"Wile E Coyote is in SPECTRE" is a good bit. this organization does not tolerate failure but the guy can't die to all the contrived metal plates and pajama pits. he keeps advancing through the numbers when all the buffoons above him fuck it colossally and actually die. Wile E Coyote is probably SPECTRE 3 by now

I support the shirt conceptually. But must admit I would not buy it

Devon. I will buy the lingerie and the shirt.

Yay thunderbirds mentioned

Abby speaking in Sean Connery: "You wouldn't deny a white boy a harmless vape, would you?" Me: (falls out)

Speaking of Charles Gray I was watching Rocky Horror with my friends and I wanted to point at the screen when he first showed up but I knew my friends wouldnt get it

I would buy a KJB brand anvil

Sean Connery in Yellowface, Charles Gray - who refuses to go entirely Japaneeese, Donald Plesance as my 2nd favorite Blofeld. What's not to like?

Is Mr. Chemicals my favorite KJB renaming for a character to date? It might be. I howl with laughter each time and repeat to myself aloud, "Mr. Chemicals." Cheers, y'all.

I do remember the episode after Abi's face just did that because she couldn't really laugh since it hurt 8'D

I'll be honest. I wouldn't buy the shirt.

YOL....T? 🤔

These are my favorite episodes. I love y'all going fully unhinged. Actually, I just love y'all (parasocially speaking).

it is time to go entirely Japanese

LETS FUCKING GOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO

This is going to be a glorious mess.

Girls gays and theys, we're here

ohhhhh I'm excited for this
