For the past few months I've been talking to a family trapped in Gaza, working to hit their gofundme for passage out of Rafah whenever the crossing reopens. Their names are Ahmed and Layla, and their 4 kids Jana, Malik, Lana and Amir. While the crossing might be closed, the situation is changing by the day and being able to afford passage out when a crossing reopens is an immense comfort.https://www.gofundme.com/f/a8jzz-help-me-and-my-family-get-out-of-the-gaza-strip https://www.map.org.uk/donate/donate ----- Consider supporting us on our reasonably-priced patreon!https://www.patreon.com/killjamesbond ------ *WEB DESIGN ALERT* Tom Allen is a friend of the show (and the designer behind our website).

0:33.6	We've picked a girl movie in capital letters. I'm really excited to talk about it.
0:38.8	And while Devon is off like riding a tractor around or implementing the Devon report or any number of possible things that they could be doing, you and I are going to talk about the Mel Gibson movie, What Women Want?
0:52.3	Yes. This was my pick for the bonus feed. I remember watching this film as a child, and it did instill in me a love of Frank Sinatra. And as far as I know, hopefully... A terrible crime. Hopefully nothing else. Hopefully none of the other values of this movie rubbed up. Yeah. I mean, I'm a bit of a kind of, not for the first time, right? I'm a bit of a stranger in a strange land, but something traditionally like feminine coded in that like, I don't know rom-coms very well. I have a bit of a, a kind of a weakness for a romantic comedy, but I'm not that sort of well-read in them. It's a straight rom-com too. Yeah, this has always been one of my stumbling blocks with them, is that they're very, like, cis hat. And also, just in general, like, my idea of romance is, like, asking a girl, like, how hard she thinks she can, like, punch me in the stomach. But, like... Yeah.

1:57.0	Yeah, really, you're beautiful.
1:59.0	Yeah, I love the, uh, love the hair you have everywhere.
2:04.8	Actually, what's Helen Hunt doing?
2:06.7	Can we go back to her?
2:07.8	So, I mean, these kind of romantic comedies, right?
2:10.5	They used to be unfairly called like chick movies, right?
2:14.4	Like, movies for girls.
2:16.3	And I think a big part of Kill James Bond as a podcast
