Goldenlettuce (James Bond) - Show Notes



The Lettuce Podcast is back on a mission with 007 himself, James Bond. On this week's episode, Laura and Charlotte chat about Pierce Brosnan's first film as the famous British spy, Goldeneye. They chat about all things Bond including the modernization of the franchise, wacky gadgets, ridiculous Bond Girl names, and more. Laura reveals why she thinks Brosnan has the look of Bond, but misses the mark on personality. Charlotte expresses appreciation for the intelligent and capable Bond Girl, Natalya. Together the girls discuss Tina Turner's performance of “Goldeneye”, the amazing Judi Dench's near 20 year run as M, and the movie's most iconic action sequence (Psst- it involves a TANK!). Does 1995's James Bond revival film hold up against the current 007 films? Which Goldeneye Bond gadgets inadvertently predicted the future of technology? And is Xenia Onatopp a satisfying henchwoman or just a sexy weirdo?


For the Fun & Games segment, Laura challenges Charlotte to a game of “Is This A Bond Girl?” where she is given a list of names and has to determine which are real characters from the 007 film franchise. Play along and tell us your results in the comments! The girls also dust off one of their favorite TLP games, Alphabet Sentence, which produces strange results. All this fun and more on this week's episode of The Lettuce Podcast!



This week's podtail was the only appropriate drink for James Bond: a martini!
