252 Bobby and Jon are back for another candid, unscripted Tailoring Talk Magazine catch-up, this time covering Bond First Light, Project Hail Mary, electric cars, Apple rumours, Netflix recommendations, Dune, Bentley track days and the continuing saga of Jon’s broken Nissan.
Bobby and Jon return with another unscripted Tailoring Talk Magazine ramble, beginning with the upcoming Bond First Light game and somehow ending up with Apple rumours, folding iPads, Bentley track days, Netflix spy dramas and a Nissan dealership fire.
This episode starts with a proper Bond and gaming catch-up as Bobby and Jon talk about why gaming has become therapy, why First Light might be the closest thing to new Bond for a while and whether the new 007 game looks more like Hitman, Uncharted or something in between.
From there, things move into Project Hail Mary, including Bobby and Carolina’s trip to see it at the BFI IMAX in 70mm, why the film has become such a rewatchable favourite and why some stories deserve to be seen on the biggest screen possible.
There’s also a healthy dose of electric car chat, including Bobby’s early verdict on the new MINI, automatic parking, EV range anxiety, Jon’s Kia EV3 plans and the truly ridiculous latest chapter in his long-running Nissan saga.
Also discussed: Apple Focus Modes, using tech to separate work and home life, the BFI cinema experience, Billie Eilish cinema chaos, Dune, Denis Villeneuve’s future Bond film, Netflix recommendations, The Boys, Daredevil Born Again, Bentley track days, Apple racing livery, the rumoured iPhone Fold and whether a folding iPad would actually make more sense.
As always, it’s candid, chaotic and completely unscripted.
