The book where Ian Fleming first introduced his super spy, James Bond, adapted into the first Daniel Craig Bond film only 53 years later.
Wherein we kick off Season 5 and introduce our next book, Casino Royale by Ian Fleming, we discuss pop culture blind spots, college sports apathy, confusing IP rights, and of course, ancient coins.
Wherein we review the first half of Casino Royale, we rejoice in the incredibly mundane, discuss random kickstarter campaigns, try to understand gambling strategies, and discuss what a cool MFer James Bond is.
Wherein we review the rest of Casino Royale, we discuss asynchronous and online temple attendance, missed opportunities for spy slash pics, torturing men on easy mode, old timey phone lingo, and get some insider info on the 2020 census.
Wherein we conclude Season 5 with a review of the movie version of Casino Royale and we discuss: how to use bar soap, films on airplanes, what is Tiktok, Austin Powers as an influence on James Bond, how expensive tuxedoes are, and potential new Bonds.
