Being the adventures of a loving couple whose principal interests are books, film adaptations, and Snuffy Walden.

Could there be any other subject matter for our episode numbered HE007 than Ian Fleming's own James Bond? We'd give ourselves a license to squeal if that was anything more than a quantum of synchronicity. But truthfully, the topic came to us as a suggestion from our very first guest-hosts, Rich and Z Johnson! Specifically, the four of us spied with our little eyes only the third Bond book written by Fleming (1955) and its overly shaken and stirred movie adaptation (1979), based seemingly on the title alone. Surely, our words are not enough to convey the full spectre of craziness hovering over this flick. We recommend a view to (Richard) Kiel's Jaws in Moonraker as a companion to our latest installment.

Note: the sound is a little less golden than normal, as a storm was beating the living daylights out of the beach house in which we recorded this episode.
