About this episode

In a very special podcast cross-over event, Bond experts Matt Gourley (Keys To The Kingdom) and Matt Mira (The Goldbergs), hosts of the podcast James Bonding, join Paul, June, and Jason to figure out if A View To a Kill is the worst Bond movie of all time. Recorded LIVE at Largo in Los Angeles, they cover how Bond invents snowboarding, the most French man in the world, Tanya Roberts’ stunt double being a grizzly old man, the multiple blimps, racehorses, the robot dog, and of course, the butterflies. Plus, Gourley & June’s Wigdar shines during audience Q&A, and we hear from the person who reviews A View To a Kill every year in another edition of 2nd Opinions! (Originally Released 12/12/2014)
