Episode 30.5: KJB Q&A 5
Well, it's that time again. We have finally killed the mother fucker, so we're doing an end-zone dance by answering your questions in retrospective about the 25 Bond films AND the 60ish episodes of Kill James Bond! Enjoy our unhurried and friendly discussion about how well Alice did at the live show, what our plans are for the future of KJB, and what our ideal Mamma Mia 3 would look like!
This episode features Devon saying "I think if I tried I could probably figure out what Greek Fire was"

The idea of Abigail and Charles Grey being a Dirk Bogard and Mrs Fothergil couple is a fun concept, lol.
It's very amusing how the trio went from viscerally hating Roger Moore during his first movie to calling him their favorite by the end. That daft bastard was just too damn charming.
AOT is Gundam from Zeon's perspective, and understanding that is important for getting the message War is Bad Yo.
Ohýýyý,.lt
Speaking of Brendan Fraser I you guys have to do looney tunes back in action at some point
hearing devon serenely reciting the giantdad video to themself made my week
Being awarded a Kronsteen by Abi might just be my greatest achievement!
I googled the siberian bear-fighting armour and actually let out a real life shriek because wow it's HORRIFYING do not like

I respectfully request a Spice World episode. I was reminded of it the other day and I was instantly thrown back to the bonkers 90s girl power but stay in your lane feminism!
You mentioned getting LittleKuriboh on and I shouted "YES!" so loud my neighbors banged on the wall.
Alice was tremendous! I do believe that she was horribly anxious before the show but I could never have known otherwise. This is just the loveliest podcast gang.
i will say to be fair to them, colin firth is gay in mamma mia, its established in the first one
Next week's special guest: Daniel Craig, minicab driver from Welwyn Garden City
Y’all should try to have Maggie Mae Fish as a guest! It would be great 😭
as someone who has adhd I'm obsessed with the idea of the new format. thank you for sharing your hyperfixations with us
This is also exactly how my autistic brain works! Short-lived and unpredictable obsessions.
Fun fact regarding gay Mamma Mia: Colin Firth is gay in the first one, he says rawdogging Meryl Streep was his only heterosexual experience.
About an older daddy Brosnan, I just figured out a movie for the pod! IT IS : Eurovision Song Contest: The Story of Fire Saga Old Brosnan and Eurovision is coming up so lots of synergy going on. Plus I think it's a fun movie.
In the 2000s I went to see a Bond movie with an ex-spook who, in the middle of one scene with Judi Dench in a control room full of shiny computer screens, leaned over and said "This is rubbish, the foreign office is all still on Windows NT."
I know that the NZ equivalent, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs and Trade, was on Windows 3.11 on the desktop and NT 3.51 on their servers till the early naughties. Was secure as hell - most viruses wouldn't touch it.
Devon….don’t lower your voice when you talk about Jojo part 4. Yell with pride that you referenced Joseph Joestar’s adultery
In the Korean arc please include I Saw the Devil and Memories of Murder What I wanted in a sequel/prequel to Mama Mia was Colin Firth's character. He basically comes out at the end of the first movie, so what about a movie about his journey into becoming a gay man? Doesn't get much gayer than that.
I was having a kinda crappy day so was looking forward to listening to this to cheer myself up. And I gotta say hearing Devon use my question at the end of the pod was amazing, and really cheered me up. Thank you 💖
GiantDad (Devon). GiantDev, if you will...
THE LEGEND NEVER DIES Made me smile, hadnt thought about GiantDad in a while
Loved the Lambton Worm reference from Abi

Man, when am I going to get my name read in the thanks?
Glad to hear you liked my screen name, I stole it from a Trillbilly Workers Party bit from 2018 and changed it a little to be legally distinct.
This is probably my favorite Q&A. Listening to you look back and how much you enjoyed yourself and this show and the live show is just... nice. Made me smile a lot.
I'm sorry, but I'm not Daniel Craig. If I were, I'd tell you, I swear.
I would pay QUITE A LOT extra on the Patreon for a KJB episode that's just Riley trying to do impressions of the three of you
cursed idea Chris Pratt bond
As a theatre costumer, the Shai hulud puppet is something I could absolutely make for a live show (additionally I've done a lot of shakespearean stuff and swords if you want costumes for the inevitable descent into period dramas)
Ooh yeah, that got the parasocial juices flowing, that's the good shit. My personal favourite has to be "Selling Dope!"
Sgt J. W. Pepper, Louisiana State Police: A 007®️ Story
I have it on quite good authority that Sean Connery was quite a huge prick actually
My dad worked as a waiter in London in the 80s. Miserable git would eat alone in a side room and never tipped. Roger Moore, however? Absolute delight, would speak Italian to my dad.
Just wanted to comment on what a strong look Alice's live show outfit was. I mean everyone looked nice, but I did enjoy her quasi-military supervillain stylings
Brendan Fraser and Timothy Dalton are great in Doom Patrol together.
My question was acknowledged, +1 to parasocial relationship attribute
The sheer amount of potential closeted Tom Cruise commentary has me shivering with anticipation
i do work for MI6 but only ironically
Fraser suggestions: The Quiet American and Monkeybone
Props to the lambton worm
If you do any Brendan Fraser stuff, you should watch some Doom Patrol since it stars both Fraser and Timothy Dalton
I did wonder why my ticket didn't get checked at the liveshow, I assumed I just looked trans enough to be waved through without question. Also while not quite black tie there was one person in a suit and tie!
