Matt and Eric paint themselves head to toe in 1964's GOLDFINGER, the Bond many (most?) consider to be the best Bond of all time. Gadget cars, laser beams, razor hats GALORE!

This week Matt joins me to chat about Timothy Daltons first James Bond outing, "The Living Daylights". Now that i've seen all the Bond films and I've had some time apart, I wanted to revisit this one to see if my opinion on it has changed. Is this a top 10 Bond film for me now? I also get matts perspective on it as someone seeing it for the first time, and someone who has never seen any of the Roger Moore films that precede it.Since it was Valentines week when we recorded this I thought it would be nice to try a wine finished whiskey. Enter Nelson Brothers Mouvedre cask.From their site "Nelson Brothers Mourvèdre Cask brings a piece of the Sierra Foothills of California down to Nelson's Green Brier Distillery in the heart of Nashville, Tennessee. Southern grain meets Northern California grapes thanks to this partnership with Withers Winery out of Sonoma County.  Known to appeal to richer wine drinkers, Mourvedre brings notes of dark plum and cracked peppercorns to every bottle. The bourbon touts notes of cherry cobbler, almond, sweet mint and honey."

Matt and Eric shake themselves into the stirring mega-franchise of JAMES BOND, with 1963's DR. NO, featuring Sean Connery's first outing as the famed suave British agent.

Send us a textJames Bond meets Harry Potter in this episode of our series. Two favorites of mine from across the pond in this special edition. Ian Fleming's writing tips emphasize speed, research, clarity, and sensory detail to keep the reader engaged and "turn over the page". He wrote primarily for "pleasure and money," aiming to create compelling thrillers rather than "Literature with a capital L". Here are his key writing tips and habits:The Writing ProcessWrite Fast and Never Look BackEdit LaterEstablish a Routine Style and ContentBlend Fact with Fantasy: Use real-world facts, locations, and brand names to ground the more fantastical plot elements in reality. This gives the story authenticity and stimulates the reader's senses, a technique known as the "Fleming effect".Prioritize Clarity and ConcisionFocus on Sensory Details:  Describe food, drink, clothes, and locations to provide a vivid, vicarious experience.Create Strong VillainsHook the Reader: The most important rule: "You have to get the reader to turn over the page". He used plot hooks (often involving sex or violence) at the end of chapters to compel the reader to continue.Vary Sentence LengthListen to Your Audience: Fleming was sensitive to feedback from his readers and adjusted his approach based on their expectations, such as ensuring Bond traveled to exotic locations after a UK-only novel ( Moonraker). MindsetWrite for Pleasure and Money: He was unashamed about his motivations, believing a writer's life was a good one, offering a decent living if film deals and other rights were secured.Be Aware of the WorldView Writing as a Craft: He considered himself a "writer" rather than an "author" or "artist," viewing writing as a craft where one constantly learns by studying peers. J.K. Rowling emphasizes discipline, extensive planning, and resilience as core to her writing process. Her tips focus on the craft and the emotional connection to the story. Key writing tips from J.K. Rowling include:Read Extensively Rowling consistently advises aspiring writers to read as much as possible. This helps you analyze what works and what doesn't, discover your preferences, and eventually find your own distinctive voice.Plan Meticulously Rowling is a thorough planner who mapped out the entire seven-book Harry Potter series before completing the first novel, using detailed, color-coded spreadsheets and outlines. Knowing the overall arc and destination provides structure, allowing for creative freedom along the way.Be DisciplinedRewrite and Edit Develop Complex Characters Give characters flaws and contradictions, making them morally complex and realistic. This allows readers to relate to them on a deeper, more human level.Write What You Know (Emotionally) While not a literal tip to only write from personal experiences, Rowling suggests drawing from your own emotions, truths, and instincts. She used her personal struggles with depression as the raw material for the Dementors, for example.Minimize Adverbs Be Resilient a Questions or comments at , Randalrgw1@aol.com , https://twitter.com/randal_wallace , and http://www.randalwallace.com/Please Leave us a review at wherever you get your podcastsThanks for listening!!

Get to the choppa, cause its time for a review of the newest Predator movie, Predator Badlands. It does not disappoint. Plus Valve doubles down on hardware, while the Super Mario Galaxy movie shows off its stars.

Gary, Terry, and Graham are back with another edition of Action Movie Landfill. This time, Gary has dragged out John Woo's 1996 nuclear heist thriller, Broken Arrow.Woo arrived in Hollywood with a reputation for high-octane Hong Kong action movies, and just a year later he'd cement his legacy with the classic Face/Off, once again teaming up with John Travolta. But how much does Broken Arrow serve as a warm-up for Face/Off — or is the stronger link to screenwriter Graham Yost, the man who wrote the script for Speed? For just over an hour, the gang rummage through desert chases, pantomime villainy, Hans Zimmer guitar riffs, and the question of whether this film belongs in the landfill.Download the podcast here or listen on the player below.

The James Bond talk isn't over yet! I invite my friend and frequent guest Matt Lackey back to the show to discuss Licence to Kill, the 16th film in the Eon Productions Bond series and Timothy Daltons 2nd and Final outing as the 007 character.I love this movie and wanted to chat about it with someone who hasn't seen all the Bond movies. What would their reaction being to seeing Daltons portrayal for the first time in a post Daniel Craig Bond world? And without ever seeing any of the Roger Moore films?We both apparently had a lot to talk about and it made for a fun discussion. We also break the seal on a special bottle I got over the summer when I visited the James Beam Distillery. We're trying Little Book Chapter 8: Path Not Taken. This was the 2024 release of the series and features a blend of rye whiskeys ranging from 5 to 18 years old.Check out my ranking of all 25 Bond films Here.and my ranking of every Opening Bond Song.

James Bond is one of Britain's most iconic fictional characters, and without a doubt the most famous spy in the world. And the man behind the legend - author Ian Fleming - lived a life almost as thrilling as Bond's.In this high-octane podcast episode, Rory guides Geoff through the life (and many country houses) of Fleming - from his time at Eton and Sandhurst, via his string of high-profile love affairs and service in WWII, to his love of the island nation of Jamaica. All fuelled, of course, by gallons of champagne and thousands of cigarettes.It was at Goldeneye, Fleming's coastal estate in Jamaica, that the author would pen the first of his Bond novels - Casino Royale - in 1952, and it was at Goldeneye that all subsequent James Bond novels were written.Please let us know what you think of this episode by leaving a comment, and feel free to share with us your favourite Bond quotes!

We're talking Shirley Bassey, Paul McCartney, Adele, Billie Eilish, and everyone in between.. I'm sipping on a bold Elijah Craig Single Barrel store pick from Canyon City Liquor in Azusa, CA—a rich, spicy bourbon with deep caramel and oak notes as well as a hint of cream of wheat with brown sugar that's perfect for this iconic franchise. Which themes capture the essence of 007? Which ones fall flat? This is a deep dive into Bond music history, bourbon in hand.

It's the end of the line for Daniel Craig's Bond — and the final pour in our 007 series. In Episode 25, I'm closing out my James Bond retrospective with a deep dive into No Time to Die (2021) — a bold, emotional, and divisive conclusion to the Daniel Craig era. With high stakes, stunning visuals, and a shocking farewell, this film redefines what it means to be 007.To mark the occasion, I'm pairing the film with a pour of Jack Daniel's 14-Year-Old Tennessee Whiskey — a limited release with bold character, deep oak, and a long-lasting finish that mirrors Bond's final chapter.

We've arrived at the penultimate James Bond film! Spectre (2015) — the long-awaited return of Ernst Stavro Blofeld. To match the sleek and brooding energy of Spectre, I'm pouring a glass of Michter's 10 Year Old Bourbon — a bold, refined whiskey with depth and character that perfectly complements this shadowy Bond adventure.If you're a fan of Bond films, bourbon, or both, this episode is a smooth ride through high-stakes espionage and high-proof flavor.

Bond is back — and better than ever. In Episode 23 of my ongoing 007 series, I dive into one of the most celebrated entries in the franchise: Skyfall (2012). Directed by Sam Mendes with Cinematography by Roger Deakins, and starring Daniel Craig in peak form, Skyfall delivers emotional depth, high-stakes espionage, and stunning visuals — all while celebrating the 50th anniversary of James Bond on screen.To pair with this sleek, stylish Bond adventure, I'm pouring a glass of the 2024 release of Bomberger's Declaration Bourbon — a bold, complex whiskey that's as refined and powerful as 007 himself. I share tasting notes, my thoughts on the latest batch, and how it complements the themes and tone of Skyfall.

No Time to Die Another Living Daylights! Scarlet Witch found this James Bond Car Quiz. Also check out Licence To Queer. Need more Bond? Check out our double-o marathon in episodes 200-224. The next spy topic is Notorious (1946).

This week we're continuing the journey through the Daniel Craig James Bond era with a review of Quantum of Solace (2008) — the fast-paced, emotionally charged follow-up to Casino Royale. Often seen as one of the more divisive entries in the Bond franchise, We revisit the film with a fresh perspective to break down its action, themes, and connection to the ongoing story of Bond's revenge and grief.To pair with this high-octane Bond chapter, We're tasting two premium bourbon releases: Russell's Reserve Single Rickhouse Camp Nelson F & Camp Nelson C. We share notes on flavor, contrast the two batches, and talk about what makes these rickhouse-specific Wild Turkey bourbons so special. Whether you're a bourbon lover, a Bond fan, or both, this episode hits hard and drinks smooth.

We're entering the Daniel Craig era of James Bond. Matt Lackey joins me once again to discuss  Casino Royale (2006) — the explosive reboot that redefined James Bond for a new era, introducing us to Daniel Craig's grittier, more grounded 007.To pair with this intense and stylish Bond outing, I'm mixing up the iconic Vesper Martini using the original recipe from Ian Fleming's Casino Royale novel: “Three measures of Gordon's, one of vodka, half a measure of Kina Lillet…”We break down:The film's bold tone shift from previous Bond entriesHow Craig's Bond compares to those before himMy personal experience watching every James Bond film leading up to this oneThoughts on starting the Casino Royale novel and how it deepens my appreciation for the character and this adaptationWhether you're a longtime Bond fan or just getting into the franchise, this episode is packed with sharp insights, shaken cocktails, and Bond nostalgia.

Guess what, there's another reason to question the existence of the PS5 Pro! The Sony Sate of Play was pretty solid today, and its mainly due to the James Bond game trailer. Microsoft pushes back its handheld plans, Nintendo keeps it close to the vest, and Activision has a blunder. Plus Netflix has its Tudum, Mark Hamill shares his future, and thank god we don't live in the Michael Bay Superman Timeline. Plus my review of Mission Impossible The Final Reckoning.

It's a good time for gaming with the Nintendo Switch 2 and new titles coming for Playstation! We'll give you the rundown in the #MikeJonesMinuteCon.

In this 15th episode of my 007 series, I'm shaking (not stirring) things up with The Living Daylights — Timothy Dalton's explosive debut as James Bond. Is this a return to form or a cold, brooding misfire? Let's dig into the tone shift, Cold War vibes, and whether Dalton gets the credit he deserves. For the perfect pairing, I'm sipping on Maker's Mark The Lost Recipe Series: Edition 01 (2024) — a bourbon that revives a historic flavor profile for a modern audience. Just like Dalton's Bond, it's bold, refined, and cuts through the noise.

In episode 14 of my 007 series, I'm diving into A View to a Kill — the final James Bond film starring Roger Moore — and pairing it with the bold and sweet Maestro Dobel Pavito Blanco Tequila.

This episode of Drinks and a Movie is blasting off into one of the most outrageous Bond adventures ever—Moonraker (1979). Roger Moore's 007 goes from Venice to space in a spectacle filled with laser battles, deadly centrifuge tests, and the return of the unstoppable Jaws. It's over-the-top, it's ridiculous, and it's pure late-'70s Bond fun.For a movie this bold, I had to pair it with a whiskey that packs just as much punch—the Thomas H. Handy Sazerac Rye from the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. Uncut, unfiltered, and full of intense spice and caramel sweetness, this rye whiskey hits hard, much like the G-forces in Drax's centrifuge.Join me as I break down Bond's most out-of-this-world adventure while sipping on a rye that's as powerful as a Moonraker laser blast. Buckle up, pour yourself a glass, and let's talk Bond. Cheers!

In this episode of Drinks and a Movie, we're diving into one of the most stylish and action-packed Bond films of the Roger Moore era—The Spy Who Loved Me (1977). From the unforgettable ski jump opener to the sleek Lotus Esprit submarine car and the menacing presence of Jaws, this film is peak '70s Bond spectacle. But what's a Bond discussion without a drink in hand?This week, I'm pairing the film with the 2023 George T. Stagg from the Buffalo Trace Antique Collection. This uncut and unfiltered bourbon is as bold and complex as 007 himself—rich with dark caramel, oak, and spice, delivering a long finish worthy of a Bond villain's monologue. Join me as I break down the espionage, the iconic Carly Simon theme, and, of course, this powerhouse of a bourbon. Grab a glass and tune in—because nobody does it better. Cheers!

Bond. Bourbon. And one deadly assassin.  In this episode of Drinks and a Movie, we're taking aim at The Man with the Golden Gun (1974), Roger Moore's second outing as 007. With Christopher Lee as the iconic Scaramanga, a funhouse duel, and some of the wildest stunts in Bond history, this one's got plenty to talk about. But is it a hidden gem or a misfire?To pair with this high-stakes adventure, I'm sipping on Colonel E.H. Taylor Small Batch, a Bottled-in-Bond beauty from Buffalo Trace's Mash Bill #1. How does this bourbon hold up against other classics? Tune in for my full tasting notes and Bond breakdown! Don't forget to like, subscribe, and drop a comment—who's your favorite Bond villain?

On this episode of Drinks and a Movie, we're diving into Live and Let Die (1973), Roger Moore's explosive debut as James Bond. From voodoo villains to high-speed boat chases, this film is packed with action, style, and one of the franchise's most unique soundtracks. But does it hold up today?And what better way to pair a Bond flick than with a top-shelf bourbon? This week, I'm sipping on Rock Hill Farms, a single-barrel gem from Buffalo Trace's Mash Bill #2. How does it compare to other favorites from the distillery? Tune in for tasting notes, film discussion, and all the Bond-worthy vibes! Don't forget to like, subscribe, and let me know—what's your favorite Bond film?
