  • "No Time to Die" Spoiler Review #1: Jason and Edgar
    Hello dear listeners!
    Suffice to say that the "NO TIME TO DIE" party is just getting started. After a non-spoiler review, it's time to get into the juicy details the film has to offer. From the action, the sets, the special effects, to the many controversial elements. 
    Scheduling conflicts among the hosts have led to a potentially interesting strategy with which all 4 can have their say. In this first spoiler filled discussion, Jason and Edgar cover hosting duties, whereas Matt and Emery will review NTTD with a finely toothed comb in the next episode. 
    What sort of delightful and delirious topics does NTTD inspire for this week's hosts? Oh my: Chris Corbould the English gentleman, showing military issued government ID to get into the premiere, the technical marvels of SUVs, using Coca-Cola as traction, impromptu interviews while taking the tube, all the Bond fan content creators getting fired, correctly guessing plot points from trailers, a film adaptation of the "Everything or Nothing" video game, and Jason singing if you can believe it. 
    So sit back, relax, and enjoy this week's episode of The James Bond Complex. 
    Yes, yes, the podcast will return. That much we can promise.

  • "No Time To Die" Non-Spoiler review!
    Hello dear listeners,
    The time has finally come. The very first episodes of the podcast were recorded in the autumn of 2017, before anyone had any clue what form "Bond 25" would take.
    After rumours of Russian actor casting calls, Danny Boyle being hired, a change of directors due to creative differences, Daniel Craig puttering off to start another franchise (Knives Out) and, well, we don't need to talk about the OTHER reason we've had to wait to so long.
    That's right, this week Matt and Edgar really, truly, actually sit down to discuss "No Time to Die." It feels a bit surreal!
    This episode is a non-spoiler review. While most have seen the film, certain territories have not at the time of this episode's release. 
    But dancing around plot details and the excitement of finally talking about a shiny new Bond film didn't stop the lads from coming up with the usual brilliant topics, such as: Fu-gee-la, the hosts not going to bed together, quoting "Spectre" because why not, changing the temperature in a movie theatre auditorium during a film, staying until the end of the credits, finding Matt's future wife, "Highlander: Engame", and apes castrating people. 
    So sit back, relax, and by all means enjoy this latest episode of The James Bond Podcast!*
    *this episode has been tested as cruelty free against Australian, New Zealand, China, and Malaysian Bond fans.

  • "No Time to Die" Royal Premiere! Jason Kim reports from the red carpet
    Hello dear listeners!
    To attend a Royal Premiere it takes one negative test, but to be absolutely certain it takes...two!
    We're back this week with a very special episode of the show. Jason Kim, the International Man of Mystery, reports from London, England! He shares his thoughts and describes the experience of gracing the No Time to Die Royal Premiere on September 28th. 
    The trip and premiere were so exciting they inspire a plentiful array of topics such as: a special Shrublands Session, impressing Chris Corbould, mingling with the stars, the Sir Roger Moore soundstage, rain never souring special events, and above all else the importance of cherishing meetups with fellow Bond fans and enjoying the moment. 
    So sit back, relax, and let Jason take you to the No Time to Die red carpet.
    A very special thanks to James Davies for inviting Jason to attend the event and Kerim Bey-ing him.

  • Being James Bond Review
    The race for No Time To Die is in it's final lap with Operation Finish Line happening October 9th in Montreal. To get us in the mood, The James Bond Complex has arrived fashionably late to the Being James Bond Party with two reviews and a light roasting of the recently released Daniel Craig Documentary. Matt, Jason and Emery discuss the film, its accessibility and its perceived faults (from our resident pessimist, The Intrepid 007). Join us in the final leg of No Time To Die hype!

  • Fleming Second Edition: "From Russia with Love" with Melanie
    *First and foremost, we apologize for Edgar's audio. Although reasonable, it's a step down from usual. He's mic was not properly plugged in. He therefore spoke into his computer mic. Oops.
    Hello dear listeners!
    It's September and the kids and teenagers are back at school, hitting the books hard. It felt appropriate that the big kids do the same and continue the Fleming Second Edition series.
    That's right, Matt and Edgar are back at it. This time it's Fleming's 5th novel, From Russia With Love. Our tradition of having guests on continues with friend of show Melanie, who operates online under the persona of Birb, James Birb. Birb? Birbs? Bird? Forgive us, it's the accent. 
    It is only fitting that Melanie takes us to school with thought provoking, astute commentary on one of her favourite Fleming books. Too intellectual for your tastes? Fear not, Matt and Edgar balance the scale. Among the wide breath of topics: S&M (ooh!), the origin of characters names, blowing your mind about Kerim Bey, the house always winning, the importance of roses, and our favourite hobby: resurrection.
    So sit back, relax, and pour yourself either a Turkish coffee or some Russian vodka (it's 5pm somewhere) and enjoy the latest episode of The James Bond Complex. 
    We promise the episode doesn't end on a cliffhanger.
