Episode Title: "Orchid Fart" OR "Fear and Bonding In Las Vegas"

This is a very special episode of Six Pack Double Feature. Today the old boys are tracking down an international diamond smuggling ring and a stolen spacecraft. It’s the James Bond Super Special with DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER (1971) and MOONRAKER (1979).

Listeners Be Warned: Due to the technical glitches of the this episode, along with the “more than normal” consumption of alcohol by the time they restarted, anytime Nathan refers to a “more grounded” Roger Moore film, and then follows it by saying “The Spy Who Loved Me”, he most certainly meant “For Your Eyes Only.” Blame the Boddingtons, or blame his inability to keep them straight in his own head. Your choice.

Here’s that gawdawful song that Country musician Johnny Cash submitted to Eon productions. 

Apparently it was going to be the opening for the James Bond Movie, THUNDERBALL (1964). Rumor has it that it was kicked at the last moment and was replaced. The lyrics of Cash's "Thunderball" describe the film's story. I think this may have worked, if James Bond had been a roaming gunslinger located in the Old West. Maybe. But probably not.

If you’re interested in reading any of Nathan’s blog posts on James Bond, you can read them here: ReBONDing

 

This newer version includes the Tangents mini-episode "AN $8 LINE OF METAMUCIL" at the end. Today’s tangents include outtakes of where the guys share their one of their worst alcohol consumption stories, how long movie trailers are in the 1970s, disco Moonraker, and what Roger Moore does when he’s a little backed up.
