Episode 36: BOND XL - Big & Tall

Living a Bond lifestyle and enjoying those sartorial moments is fun right? Well, it's also a challenge for the overwhelming majority of not just the fan community, but the male population overall that struggles daily with height, weight, and body-type challenges. Whether due to genetics, metabolism, stress, or nature, so many of us are unable to add ready-to-wear Bond pieces to our wardrobes due to a whole host of factors. And it's time we talked about why.... What has worked for me in "living a Bond lifestyle" and what hasn't? I'll share some personal anecdotes about struggles I've dealt with on a daily basis in having those personal style moments. And perhaps, you already know what I am talking about. Bond inclusivity for all is my motto and should be the standard.

Episode 35: Do Your Bond Homework!

Book reports, senior thesis paper, class presentations...you name it, I incorporated Bond into it growing up. And as I think back about the countless assignments I included 007 references, clips, or citations in, I realize looking back that it was more than just about sharing my Bond passion with my peers. Presenting Bond as an educational tool, whether as a student or teacher, is just another way of schooling those not familiar with our favorite secret agent and furthering the fandom. Here are are a couple of ways I have done it over the years, consciously and subconsciously.

Episode 34: Stealing Thunder - "First Light Song Reaction"

We got a new Bond theme song this week...sort of. The new title track for "First Light" was released (along with the last significant marketing push for the game) literally hours after the CinemaCon Amazon MGM presentation. Coincidence or deliberate? I'll debate the theory tonight and give you my impressions on the new song. In addition, I'll discuss how the strategy behind IOI Interactive's debut of "First Light" should be something that the film folks are paying significant attention to. Listen and learn.

Episode 33: 20 Year Casino Royale Reflections

Twenty years...wow just saying that out loud is crazy. I remember where I was the day I saw Casino Royale in the cinema for the first time. And I also recall the uneasy, confused, and slightly annoyed feeling that it left me with all those years ago. But Casino Royale grew on me, year by year, and has risen in the ranks to top of my Bond favorites. Looking back, it's been quite a ride. And I'm excited to celebrate this phenomenal entry this year.
