Andrew Tracy, the new associate editor of Reel Screen magazine, joins the program as our first in-person guest for a deep dive into the famously problematic 007 entry Live and Let Die, Roger Moore's debut as James Bond, going up against the powerful druglord Dr. Kananga, played by Tha God Yaphet Kotto.
Plus, a discussion of Bond's inability to make a proper cup of coffee in his apartment, and we praise another great Yaphet Kotto performance of the period, the film he made just before Live and Let Die, Larry Cohen's incendiary social satire Bone (1972).
