Summary

Kill James Bond continues it's completely unashamed fellating of Jonathan Glazer by watching his (feature-film) directorial debut, Sexy Beast. We've often seen, in the course of 'getting the gang together', our protagonist coming across one potential member who insists he's retired. He's out, he's happy, he's got a beautiful wife and likes his life. What if he really, really meant it? ----- Friend of the show Bella, a refugee evacuated from Afghanistan in 2021, is raising money for her gender confirmation surgery! Anything you can give would be hugely appreciated! https://www.justgiving.com/crowdfunding/team-bella ----- Check out friend of the show Mattie's new book Simplicity here, or wherever fine graphic novels are sold! ----- FREE PALESTINE Hey, Devon here. In our home, we talk a lot about how insane everything feels, and agonise constantly over what can be done to best help the Palestinians trapped in Gaza facing the full brunt of genocidal violence. My partner Rebecca has put together a list of four fundraisers you can contribute to- all of them are at work on the ground doing what they can. -Palestinian Communist Youth Union, which is doing a food and water effort, and is part of the official communist party of Palestinehttps://www.gofundme.com/f/to-preserve-whats-left-of-humanity-global-solidarity -Water is Life, a water distribution project in North Gaza affiliated with an Indigenous American organization and the Freedom Flotillahttps://www.waterislifegaza.org/ -Vegetable Distribution Fund, which secured and delivers fresh veg, affiliated with Freedom Flotilla alsohttps://www.instagram.com/linking/fundraiser?fundraiser_id=1102739514947848 -Thamra, which distributes herb and veg seedlings, repairs and maintains water infrastructure, and distributes food made with replanted veg patcheshttps://www.gofundme.com/f/support-thamra-cultivating-resilience-in-gaza ----- WEB DESIGN ALERT Tom Allen is a friend of the show (and the designer behind our website).

0:00.0	Hello and welcome to another episode of Kill James Bond. I am November Kelly. I am joined as always by my friends Abigail Thorn and Devon.
0:24.9	Hello and welcome to Kill Chase Bond.
0:28.6	Oh my god. Joined by a Victorian author.
0:31.6	You mention in passing that you're doing a little bit of voice training and all of a sudden it becomes part of a long
0:39.5	bit, most of which we didn't record.
0:42.3	Damn right, you're mentioning it in passing.
0:44.3	God damn, you sound great.
0:46.3	Thank you.

Like if I go into it and the sort of like tradeoff is, oh, you have to do a lot of training, but you sound like Nigella Lawson. It's like, okay, when do I have to get you the money? Yeah. I'm not a sort of a problem for me. But yeah, no, I'm experimenting these things. We'll see how it goes. But in the meantime. Yeah, anyway, welcome to kill James Bond. Fuck. Right.
1:44.3	Yeah, anyway, welcome to kill James Bond.
