Welcome to Highbrow Lowbrow. The show where our podcast hosts Steve Powell and Dan Slattery pit high art against low culture. 

In this special James Bond-themed episode, Dan defends the gritty, serious Bond played by Timothy Dalton in Licence to Kill to Steve who feels that Dalton just has a Licence to Bore. 

Whereas, Steve defends the tongue-in-cheek, light portrayal of Bond by Roger Moore in Moonraker to Dan who argues that the film should be shot into outer space. Enjoy!

(This episode was recorded shortly before the death of Electric Dreams star Lenny Von Dohlen was reported in the news.)

Arthouse, Action Movies, Auteur Theory and Adventures Films, Highbrow Lowbrow is the podcast that has it all. 

Podcast hosts Steve Powell and Dan Slattery argue about the merits, or lack thereof, of high and low culture.
