S4E29: Diamonds are Forever with No Notes

BLAHAJ??? We don't have anything in BLAHAJ! Also, if you like Sleep you should try Green Lung.

I got around to this episode in mid-March of 2026, and let me tell you I laughed for about 5 minutes straight when Devon said - totally deadpan - that January would definitely be totally fine

👍

42 year old Dad, delayed listener, fully activated by Devin mentioning Sleep.

I too am here to mention that I'm over 40 for no reason and very late

Abi it is important that I say I am Blonde and I am American and only mildly insane

Cheering yelling pumping my fist texting every trans person I know about possible Canadian liveshows

Dear diary, it is the year of our lord 2030, and I am very much looking forward to the 3rd run through of this beautiful art piece. Very excited to listen to (checks notes) "Dr. No with no Notes(reprise again)"

i just want Abby to know that I am a new listener in 2025, and IT WAS THE SAM EPISODE that made me subscribe to Patreon!! which felt like an odd choice at the time but I have never regretted it even once! but I listened to soooo many of your current episodes, before going back to do the full backlog. happy new year's, wishing you a happy and successful 2026!

42 f reporting in 🫡 (american but not blonde, sorry)

👍

I genuinely cannot tell if Abi being a zoomer is a bit or not anymore

as a 24 year old having a pretty bad time, thanks for that little tidbit at the end Abby

👍🏻

I respect that dom doing a bit to November so much. Nothing is better than commitment to the bit.

👍

The sexual tension is different when it's your wife and not your friend's wife, I think.

👍

It's natural that a lot of older episodes would have more views overall due to a combination of old listeners who have left, long time listeners re-listening to old episodes, and new listeners going back through the old episodes as well

👍 <3

Re Tiffany Case being a joke name: in the novel, it's literally because her mom was given a piece of Tiffany jewelry, in the signature case, by the dude who knocked her up and left her, so she names her daughter that consciously, after a literal Tiffany case.

Please, if you come to Australia, don't skip Adelaide. Everyone skips us and it sucks. I promis if you come here I will round up every trans woman in Adelaide and we will come to the live show.

Whenever I get unc'd, I just remind them that if I'm the unc, they're the NEPHEW

::thumbsup::

This is the first no notes episode that's really activated my Bond autism. I'm basically screaming at my phone.

Sympathizing with Devon's high listening age as a fellow individual who was diagnosed over twice my actual age by Spotify. Great episode.

There is friendly flirting, direct flirting, sexual tension, and then there's whatever was going on with Abi and Nova this episode. Well done hehe

I am a glad member or the 25% median.

Y'all should come to Oz and do live shows for the Sydney Mardi Gras arts festival (come for Fair Day and the Parade) - escape the Scottish Winter! Or you could do Sydney Fringe if your interested in shows like "the womyns' naughty circus cabaret". Or the comedy festivals if you want competition. For future no notes: you could use a guest (such as Mattie Lubchansky, Nate, Milo, Victoria, etc) to cover the Bond nonsense you are forgetting. BTW 45+ Man - KJB is great for subtly queering long flights.

I am Mr 5%! Mind you, I'll be over 60 in a short while. I've no idea how tiny a sliver of the listeners that will be.

36 Year old transwoman here. I am prepared to roll up with some obscure camouflage and a deep-seated need to please if you make it to either the States after [It] happens *or* simply head to Canada if you head there.

👍

I'm not over 45, but I am 42 AND Australian, so... lemme know when that live show is happening??

👍🏻from the 25%

👍 from the 20.9%

Big 👍 from germany

46 years young - a KJB 2%er 🫣🫢!! Nice to feel appreciated 🤣

I think there are more than 195 countries in the world but after that it gets tricky to count. It doesn't include weird edge cases like Taiwan and England. Does include Palestine though so that's something.

How haven’t you KJB’d “Highlander” yet???

I'm non-binary but I'm not telling Spotify that

I’m a 43 year old nonbinary person. Alas, my body is a billboard announcing its resident uterus. Waaaah.

👍

Normal job having mid 30s AFAB enby, listening while doing my cross stitch. Happy to hold it down 🫡

"Might as well face it you're statistically unc" to the tune of Addicted to Love by Robert Palmer, lol. (Also, isn't Abby canonically aunt?)

If only I was born one year earlier…….

Hello my fellow 18-22 year olds. Though I don’t count among you because I don’t listen on Spotify.

Spent this morning playing with my nephew only to be told I'm "unc" in the evening.

I've heard of Spotify but never been interested. I listen to the Patreon feed on a podcatcher you've probably never heard of, so my stats do not count. Mid-50s Gen X always mistaken for Boomer because Gen X truly is the forgotten generation, but that's the indifferent burden us Xers share. Our rallying cry is, "M'eh, whatever." I had to dial back my patronage--woof--a lot this year, but KJB survived the culling.

Two percent wishes you all a happy new year 🎉

wishing Abi and Nova a very congrats on the thing i semi-incorrectly assumed was already happening 🎉🎂🥂

I love these episodes when y'all remember things, and I can't handle it when y'all don't remember things. I'm driving home from work trying to say "Scorpion down the back of his shirt! Morton slumber! Alimentary canal! Tiffany case! shady Tree! Sean Connery making out with himself!" loud enough for y'all to hear

I got hit with the superflu and completely missed Christmas due to spending three days unconscious in a sort of rodent rigour mortis pose. Seeing this uploaded has cheered me up no end, Bon Nadal!

Lana Wood (plenty otoole) is Natalie Woods’s sister, and, I believe, once posed for Playboy

Shout out to [MECHANICAL KEYBOARD NOISES] a key supporting member of this podcast.

Remember that lots of us don't listen on Spotify So y'all Definitely hit a million! Obligatory 👍, apparently

Re: themetunes; i am tickled by Nova’s struggling to reconcile s&m events with cruel sadists.

I think the podcast needs to get drunk more often

Also the other Willard White is an operatic guy i love to see.

…or, as it is written in fellow boomer da Urtext Fawlty Towers, coaret is a Bourdeaux.

joining that 2% next year

39:55 dev I know you were drunk but that's not within a 95% confidence value on account of 1/20th being 5%. 🤓 Very close though

A whole day late? Do you record/edit these last minute? The schedule of this podcast confuses me sometimes

“Why it’s Bondmass Eve Mr. Dean” “Bajambug!”

Oh shit I moved up an age bracket from last year! Officially kjb-old since there's nothing after this. Also: how does the computer know I am non-binary?

Currently listening to this while cleaning.

So I'm going to need two things from you lot: 1.) You need to invent a fake James Bond movie and attempt to review it with "no notes" and never break character or give away the bit. For April Fool's Day. 2.) Review any movie you feel is appropriate, where all 3 of you are doing your Sean Connery, impressions, non-stop.

So people are posting about being just under the 45 starting line and I submit to you all: as a listener in America, KJB UK field trip? We can go to cool cemeteries and libraries and see the ravens at the Tower (I know it’s a tourist trap, see the username) and go to the genuinely good restaurants. Extension to France TBD.

I only listen to you guys on patreon, makes it easier to download episodes to listen to at work.

If there's one thing you have to hand it to people with Grills, they put their money where their mouth is.

As my 47th birthday is around the corner, I appreciate the love to the 45+ listeners

“One of” 🪦❤️

👍

Surely this is the horniest KJB episode yet? Abi and November going at it and Devon in "im king of da highway" mode like the To the Bone episode

Some of us have taste and are opiated, Devon.

I do have a haunted house... & a cursed gem studded bracelet. I'll have to write a will I guess

KJB Northern live show needed

So over time the podcast has shifted from "We are dating you, the Listener" to "We are dating you, the 2% of Listeners over 45."

Cool 👍

👍

Oh thank God, I was really worried we wouldn't get [Abi's voice] Diamonds are... My Pussy? with No Notes

Oh thank god, just got off a plane, time for the long tube ride home, and I get to hear the joyous chorus of „BAJA?“ I‘m so ready. I will be imbibing shortly 🫡

It's a BabyKillingmas Eve miracle
