Hi, this is Roger Moore, and you're listening to James Bond Radio.

Hello, and welcome to James Bond Radio.

This is episode 123, where today we're going to be talking to none other than Charles Helfenstein, author of The Making of the Living Daylights.

With me, as always, is my good buddy and fellow Bondo Fictionado, Mr. Tom Sears.

How are you, my friend? I'm doing very well, man. I'm excited to speak to Charles. It's always fun.

Obviously, we had him on with the, back in the day when we did the Majesty's episode,

because obviously he also wrote the Making of Honor and a Magistee Secret Service as well,

which is an all-time classic Bond book.

So obviously this time, you know, as soon as we finished that one, we're like, right, let's write this in the book.

By the time we get to live in daylight, so here we are like three years later or how old wrong it's been.

We need to get Charles back.

And here he is.

So it's going to be fun.

I feel like we always learned something when we talk to Charles, and it's a good laugh as well.

Definitely.

Last time it was an absolute belt-up of an episode.

He's quality as well.

You can sell he's such a Bond fan, obviously.

You know, he's written two books, but it's the detail that he goes into that I love. And you'll, you know, you'll read stuff, you'll see pictures that you've never seen before

or never heard of before.

And it, you know, it gives you a little tingle, isn't it?

It certainly does, it does give you tingles.
