The Lettuce Daylights - Show Nots


What do a Russian defector, opium, diamonds, and a cello have in common? The latest episode of The Lettuce Podcast! Laura and Charlotte go on another mission with 007. This time, they're teaming up with Timothy Dalton in his debut as James Bond, The Living Daylights. The girls try to make sense of the meandering plot, attempt to figure out who the real bad guy is, and lament the damage done to a million dollar musical instrument. Laura is less than thrilled with the MI6 representation in the film, but enjoys henchman Necros. Charlotte wishes Kara Milovy had more dimension, and enjoys the sex appeal of Rosika Miklos. Together the hosts applaud Timothy Dalton's performance as Bond, discuss a-ha's “The Living Daylights” intro song, share their favorite action sequences, and more! Why is Brad Whittaker trading arms money for opium and diamonds? Where can one buy a ghetto blaster? And what in Bond's name is this movie about? All these questions and more are answered (okay, maybe not) in this week's new episode of The Lettuce Podcast.

For Fun & Games, Laura and Charlotte get creative. First, they each describe what gadgets and functions their 007 spy car would have. They also play of a round of Dream Casting where they determine who should be the next 007, Bond Girl, villain, and henchman. Who do you should play James Bond after Daniel Craig is done? Tell us in a comment!


Looking to sip on something in honor of The Living Daylights? As always, a classic Martini (shaken, not stirred!) will get anyone in the 007 mood. If you're looking for something a little less strong, pop some bubbly and pour yourself a glass!
