Episode 9: The Man With The Golden Gun
We at Kill James Bond LLC have awoken to find, upon our desks, a golden bullet carved with the word 'Podcast'.
We know now what we must do: Watch the (Christopher Lee Voice) Christopher Lee movie The Man With The Golden Gun! Also Bond is in this too, maybe. I didn't spot him. He might have been in the background somewhere.
Join us as we examine the true depths of misogyny, and find a female character so truly underappreciated that we coin a good guys' version of the Kronsteen Rosette: The Goodnight Cross!

listening to this again and yeah, Abby was right, this theme song is so good. I love how every line goes just so much harder than it has any right to. "One golden SHOT means another P-O-O-O-O-R victim has come to a bi-i-itter END!"
On James Bond and chefs: how could they forget bonds terrible terrible orders? Red wine with fish anyone?
I owned an AMC Concord, which was a "luxurious" version of the AMC Hornet used in this film. There is no way my car could have pulled off any sweet jumps, or jumps of any kind, as it was 4000 pounds of molasses on wheels.
My husband has a third nipple, it's fantastic.
it's really hard to overstate what a great actor Christopher Lee is. the other week i watched an awful Swedish/Norwegian/Soviet coproduction(!!) of an Astrid Lindgren novel called Mio in the Land of Faraway. it's tonally misjudged and boring as shit but the few minutes Christopher Lee was onscreen as the villain in the final 1/3rd were an absolute delight. the man could take an absolute nothing role and turn in into the best thing in a film. he gives his all even in late '60s Jess Franco films. i'm a fan of Franco but that shit is far from his best work - yet Christopher Lee turns up and gives great performances in even the cheapest, sleaziest Eurotrash
I'm sorry Ms. Thorn I usually love your takes but that theme song was garbage. I also want to point out that in both the belly dancer fight scene and the first hotel scene in Macau you can see the camera man/crew in mirrors... you love to see it.
“I enjoy liquid helium, especially when served at the correct temperature, -273 degrees”
Chefs hate bond because whenever he interacts with food he has to smarm a line like 'red wine and fish' or 'ah baluga caviar' 'sake, 37.5 degrees the perfect temperature'
Random question, but do you have any plans to watch the Pink Panther Strikes again? It’s the closest that series ever got to a spy/bond type film (though in my vague recollection of it, it does also treat queer characters and the subject of mental health… badly)
Every time Bond goes to somewhere with a chef or cook, he gets into a huge fight in their kitchen, cheffs up bare man and then bleeds their blood and lead into the evenings food prep.
This show, it's so so so so good. Thank you Alice, Dev and Abbi.
Abigail & Alice, you're beautiful. Devon, fuckin hell. I started smoking the tobacco over the weekend and after a long day at work, finishing this lovely podcast I sparked one, and just as it was nearly finished burning your outro came on, and damn yo, that shit S E X Y.
The best part is at 1.13.02. Prepare to laugh until you wake the neighbors. Or rupture your spleen. Or better yet, both.
The power of the spoonerism will compel you...to burst out laughing.
i love this podcast, thanks for all the laughs. can y'all tell us in the show descriptions or smth what movie you plan to review next for the patreon episodes? thanks!
