New Things

hat if the story behind the world's most famous secret agent isn't quite what we've been told?

In this episode of New Things, I sit down with Charles Small, who believes his great-uncle, James Turner Stevens Jr., played a hidden role in the creation of James Bond.

Charles shares the extraordinary story of his great-uncle's alleged intelligence work during World War II, his connections to historical figures, and the 87 hours of recorded interviews he collected before his great-uncle passed away.

From mysterious similarities in the Bond films to old photographs, family letters, and even a set of stainless-steel teeth, Charles explains why he believes his great-uncle's life inspired parts of the iconic franchise.

But how much of this story can be verified?

Join us as we explore family secrets, espionage, Hollywood, and a fascinating claim about the origins of 007.

Welcome to the very first episode of New Things! I'm joined by my high school friend, Sunshine Girly, as we talk about feeling behind in life, comparing ourselves to people on social media, money, relationships, family expectations, and mental health.
