Adam and Allison become cultural archaeologists to discover what each generation of Bond films has to say about the issues and ideas of its day and become better friends along the way.
This season on The Bond We Share, Adam and Allison are writing the next Bond movie! In honor of EON's departure from the franchise, we're going to put everything we've ever learned about Bond to good use and come up with our version of what Bond 26 *should* have been. Up first: who should even play James Bond this time around? Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com/
It's the end of season 2! We discuss the highs and lows of our Bond AdJamescent season, plus the non-Bond careers of our favorite Bond actors.

And now for something completely different! This year during our annual July 4th visit, Adam, Allison, and Alex took to the Davises' couch to discuss something very pressing: our favorite movies generally considered to be bad. Is it Bond Adjamescent? Not particularly, but it was fun anyways! There are some extremely hot takes in this one you don't want to miss. (Editor's note: apologies for the recording quality, the live couch records are always tricky to set up and mix correctly. It's not up to my standards, but it's totally listenable.)

We've returned with the second and last official Flint movie, 1967's In Like Flint! Relax, put some cucumbers over your eyes, and enjoy our trip to an ultra-feminist luxury spa/missile base? Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com/
Allison (and the pod) returns with Daniel Craig's second appearance doing a country fried southern accent in 2019's Knives Out. He just really wants to do that, doesn't he? Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com/
On the weekend of its release, Adam and guest co-host MJ discussed The Ministry of Ungentlemenly Warfare, Guy Ritchie's new James Bond origin story origin story. Dave Bautista last episode, Alan Ritchson this episode? Is this part 2 of a Giant Dudes miniseries?
This week we spend some time admiring Dave Bautista's enormous muscles as well as his performance in 2020's My Spy. It's like True Lies for kids! Or is it?

This week we watched the first episode of the 1991 animated series James Bond Jr., a show about James Bond's brother, James Bond, sending his son, also James Bond, to school. A school for spies? We're not sure, but Jaws is there, so how bad could it be? Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com/
We've returned to the OSS to see what our favorite child soldier super-spies have been up to, and it turns out it's mostly more melted plastic CGI monsters. Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com/
In 1954, CBS aired the first ever James Bond adaptation: an hour-long live performance of the 1953 spy novel Casino Royale. It's the third time we've talked about Casino Royale on the podcast. And get this, "Card Sense Jimmy Bond" is an American...

This week on TBWS, Adam and Allison look back at the TV show that got Roger Moore the Bond gig.

The Bond We Share is back! Welcome to Season 2 of TBWS, and Adam and Allison have returned to discuss and review as many James Bond adjacent movies as we possibly can. In the first episode of season 2, we're talking about the biggest spoof of them all, Austin Powers: International Man of Mystery. Did Austin Powers single-handedly put classic Bond in the ground?

Hello, Adam here. Having a weird week, so the episode is late; my apologies. Otherwise, the episode is good and very funny so please listen to it. Our friend Seth rejoins us to talk about 2012's Skyfall! Is this the peak of Daniel Craig's run? What is Miss Moneypenny's middle name? How do we feel about the Dark Knight-ification of Bond? All these questions (and more) shall be answered!

A bonus episode for you before we get into the Daniel Craig era! Casino Royale reboots the franchise for the first time ever, so ahead of our episode about it Adam wanted to talk about the behind the scenes decision-making that led to that moment. Plus, Adam and Allison share how they would have rebooted Bond in 2004 and compare it to what actually happened. Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com/
We've finished the entirety of the 90s (and tip of the 00s) Bonds, so we discussed our favorite and least favorite bits of the four Pierce Brosnan films. Check in to hear our running tally of all the best villains, best sidekicks, and best theme songs so far! Oh, and all our worsts too.

Adam's friend and other co-podcaster Seth joins us to discuss 2002's Die Another Day. It's pretty clear: this is a bad movie. The question really comes down to how much enjoyment you can get out of this bad movie, and that's something your hosts disagree wildly on.

Merry Christmas (Jones). Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com/
To celebrate your TBWS hosts being all together for the weekend, we decided to record a very special live commentary for one of the two non-Eon Bond movies. Featuring both the return of Sean Connery and the podcast debut of Allison's husband Alex, this episode is (ideally) best enjoyed while watching 1983's Never Say Never Again along with us. Alternatively, you could just watch Thunderball with this commentary and see what happens. Maybe this episode is our Dark Side of the Moon that way.

It's a new era. No Soviet Union, a lady M, Bond drives a BMW. Is Brosnan a reaction to purists complaining about Timothy Dalton, or is he a continuation in updating the series for a new decade? Is the Nintendo 64 game even that good? Join us to find out what other hot takes we have on 1995's Goldeneye! Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com
This week we say goodbye to our favorite Bond to date, Timothy Dalton. In honor of his abbreviated legacy, we try to figure out which other movies his Bond would have been a good fit in, and we swap around the other 3 Bonds we've seen so far too. After that, Adam and Allison compare their highlights and lowlights of this two movie stretch and how it stacks up against the rest of the series. Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com
James Bond will literally avenge his best friend's wife's killer and ruin the economy of a Central American nation instead of going to therapy.
My main man T-Dalts has finally arrived to save the Bond franchise from silly, campy nonsense. Except wait: this movie is also very silly, but only in good ways. It's 1987's The Living Daylights! We're here to ingest opium and talk about how much this movie rocks, and we're all out of opium. Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com
This week we take a bird's eye view of the entire Roger Moore era of Bond and stack up our favs and least favs from the movies. Where does Rog rank against the other Bonds? Who's the worst villain? Does any henchman hold a candle to Jaws? Listen to our bests and worsts from this batch of Bond, and tell us what yours are @BondWeShareCast on Twitter! Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com
This episode is a bit longer than average, but it's because we were having too much dang fun talking about this movie! Well, we talked about a lot of stuff that *wasn't* this movie, but we were having fun either way. It's 1985's A View to A Kill, and it's Roger Moore's final outing as 007. Join us to hear about Christopher Walken, the plot of Goldfinger, and honestly, more Christopher Walken. Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com
I don't really feel like writing a description this week. In this episode, we talk about the 13th James Bond film, Octopussy. It's not great. Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com
TBWS zooms into a new decade this week with 1981's For Your Eyes Only. New director John Glen introduces us to his take on Bond, and Roger Moore is still here. Sharks, pistachios, hockey, and delicatessens await you in this, the thirteenth EON Bond movie. Music: Codename Dougwood by Shane Ivers - https://www.silvermansound.com
This week we welcome special guest MJ Smith, host of Let's Jaws for a Minute, to discuss a Jaws-centric Bond film! James Bond (and Jaws) go to space! And fight Nazis in space!
