Summary

The original James Bond 007, Sean Connery has passed away at the age of 90, and JBR pays our respects to the great man.

In a change to our scheduled programming, this coming Friday's episode will be a Connery celebration. We would love it, if you'd join us by sending in your favourite memory of Sir Sean via voicemail over at jamesbondradio.com.

Leave your thoughts of the great man in 90 seconds or less and we'll play it on this week's episode.

Let's do the big man proud, and give him a big JBR Family send off together, this Friday.
