Wherever Star Wars can go, James Bond can go too. In the latest episode of Robby The Robot’s Waiting: The Sci-Fi Podcast, we open the dossier on 007’s outer space adventure, Moonraker. Released in 1979 as science fiction was proving to be box office dynamite, it took the franchise to new heights – literally, if not artistically. We’re joined to talk about spies, shuttles and space stations – and whether they mix – by writer and James Bond connoisseur Nick Setchfield. While we were preparing to record the episode, it was announced that Sean Connery had died aged 90. The actor was famous for playing James Bond in seven films, as well as other sci-fi and fantasy roles, including Indiana Jones’s dad, Juan Sánchez-Villalobos Ramírez in Highlander, and Zed in Zardoz. We look back on a career spanning over 50 years. Could there be such a thing as too much television? With streaming services everywhere – and too much out there for any one human being to watch – we wonder if we’ve reached peak TV. We also enthuse over The Mandalorian’s season 2 premiere, scare ourselves silly with Pegg and Frost’s new ghost series Truth Seekers, check out a few teen monster stories including A Babysitter's Guide To Monster Hunting, and contemplate all the latest trailers and news. There’s all this plus Battlestar Galactica, Moon Knight, Willow, and plenty of kookiness, spookiness and ookiness in Robby The Robot’s Waiting, the podcast that's out of this world... Episode highlights: 1.00 – What we've been watching: A Babysitter's Guide To Monster Hunting, Vampire Academy, Hansel And Gretel: Witch Hunters, The Mandalorian season 2 premiere and Truth Seekers season 1. 14.47 – Is there too much TV? We discuss how big the streaming bubble can grow – is there room for everything? 25.03 – Our special guest, writer Nick Setchfield, chats about his books: The War In The Dark, The Spider Dance, and Mission Statements: James Bond At The Movies (details at www.nicksetchfield.com/books). 29.13 – Remembering Sean Connery, who died aged 90 just before we recorded the episode. 33.32 – Rewind: our regular rewatch segment takes us back to a different James Bond, Roger Moore, and the 1979 spy-fi adventure Moonraker. 54.20 – News Round-Up: Tim Burton's bringing The Addams Family to TV, Battlestar Galactica’s getting a(nother) reboot, Oscar Isaac will star in Moon Knight, a Willow TV show, the game series Assassin's Creed somersaulting onto TV, Kate Winslet's breath-holding exploits on the Avatar 2 set, and more...

On today’s show, Jason Drury interviews composer Atli Örvarsson. Originally from the small town of Akureyri, Atli Örvarsson became established in the local music scene at a young age. He earned three platinum and two gold records as a member of the Icelandic band Sálin hans Jóns míns before studying film composing at Berklee College of Music and the North Carolina School of the Arts. He excelled in composing and was awarded the Pete Carpenter Fellowship, which brought him to Los Angeles. He began working alongside TV veteran Mike Post on NYPD BLUE and three LAW AND ORDER brands. Soon after that, Atli met composer Hans Zimmer, who extended an invitation to join his team at Remote Control Studios. Atli’s accolades include winning the HARPA Nordic Film Composer Award for his acclaimed score to Rams, several ASCAP & BMI Film & TV Music Awards, a “Breakthrough of the Year” nomination with the IFMCA Awards in 2009, plus he was nominated for the prestigious World Soundtrack Academy’s “Discovery of the Year Award” for his score for Babylon A.D in 2009 and his score for Ploey: You Never Fly Alone was nominated for a “Public Choice Award” in 2018. Atli’s credits include orchestrating and writing music for some of Hollywood’s biggest projects, including the Pirates of the Caribbean series. As a composer, Atli Örvarsson displays musical diversity throughout his action-film scores in THE EAGLE, VANTAGE POINT, THICK AS THIEVES, THE FOURTH KIND, the Nicolas Cage medieval fantasy SEASON OF THE WITCH and HANSEL AND GRETEL: WITCH HUNTERS amongst others. Atli also worked with Hans Zimmer to contribute music to Zack Snyder’s superhero blockbuster, MAN OF STEEL. Atli’s most recent credits include THE HITMAN’S BODYGUARD starring Samuel L. Jackson and Ryan Reynolds, the coming-of-age film THE EDGE OF SEVENTEEN, the Icelandic drama about two stubborn brothers RAMS as well as on TV FBI, CHICAGO FIRE and CHICAGO PD. His latest assignment is the Apple TV+ thriller series DEFENDING JACOB, which premiered globally on the streaming platform on April 24th, 2020. In April 2020, for the CINEMATIC SOUND RADIO NETWORK, Jason talked to Atli via Skype at his home in Akureyri, Iceland. During the interview amongst other things, we talked about how he scored DEFENDING JACOB, how he got into composing for film and TV, his relationship with Hans Zimmer and his forthcoming new solo album YOU ARE HERE. Also during the interview, you will be hearing music from Atli’s score for DEFENDING JACOB as well as his new single “Hum”taken from his album, YOU ARE HERE, and more.

What if Hansel and Gretel were badass witch murderers with steam punk guns and snarky attitudes? You’d probably get something like HANSEL AND GRETEL: WITCH HUNTERS, starring Jeremy Renner and Gemma Arterton as ultraviolent action heroes. Why did critics balk at this weird attempt to jumpstart an R-rated fantasy franchise, and why is it the perfect double feature with Anna Biller’s acclaimed horror comedy THE LOVE WITCH, about a young witch whose attempts to find love go horribly awry? You’ll have to listen to THE TWO-SHOT to find out! Film critics William Bibbiani and Witney Seibold talk about the best and worst of cinema, every single week!

Mitch and Buzi welcome back returning guest and homie KYLE ZUREVINSKI for a deep dive into Kyle's film pick of the week, PERFECT BLUE. Before the potentially most in depth conversation of a feature that the Table has had in a while, the boys discuss what they have been watching which includes titles like IT COMES AT NIGHT, SEARCHING, VENOM, MANDY, CLIMAX, SUSPIRIA, HEREDITARY, GOOSEBUMPS 2, SEASON OF THE WITCH, THE WOODS, THE CRAFT and HANSEL AND GRETEL: WITCH HUNTERS.
