Summary
Dan Gale returns this week with special guest, Richard Overall. Richard's work on the Cartoon Network series 'The Adventures of Gumball' was recently brought to JBR's attention after a certain episode titled, 'The Agent' appeared on Youtube.
The brief episode synopsis reads:
"Gumball and Darwin's clothes go missing after a swimming lesson; when Gumball is forced to wear a tuxedo from the lost and found office, he believes it makes him look like a certain dapper British secret agent."
What follows is 11 minutes of genius-level Bond references that will delight any 007 fan.
So, sit back, pour yourself a Vesper and meet the man behind the action.
