The James Bond Complex


Hello dear listeners!
It\'s been quite some time since we\'ve sat down to discuss Ian Fleming\'s original creation, the literary James Bond 007. The wait is over! Fleming Second Edition is back in full force with the seventh novel, GOLDFINGER. For the occasion, we required the intelligence and sensibilities of someone steeped in Fleming lore. Who better than Birb, James Birb from Instagram?
Emery and Birb leave no stone unturned in their dissection of GOLDFINGER, offering such salient talking points as: how the film is superior to the book, the relationship between masters and servants, Edgar\'s note doing the heavy lifting, recurring themes throughout the series, Fleming\'s moral code and his fantasies, quoting the 80s band Slaquer, and how parrots select which Bond film to watch.
So sit back, relax, and crack open your dusty copy of GOLDFINGER. Emery and Birb have it all sorted out. This is no parrot(dy)!
