It's been an incredible year at Idiot Bond Fan and in the world of James Bond 007. Never when we launched back in January did I think it would all amount to this. Event host, website moderator, award nominee, regular contributor and collaborator, Bond friend; I don't know how I've found time to sleep, but it's been very personally rewarding.

In tonight's first year wrap-up show, I'll discuss all the incredible highs (and some defining challenges) of becoming a new voice in the Bond Fan Community. We'll cover some of the highlights in Bond news across 2025 and things we can look forward to in 2026. But most importantly, I'll shower you all with my appreciation and gratitude for helping me launch this journey. Here's to an incredible year to come as a Bond fan!

Spin the wheel (or turn it if you will!). Every Bond actor has had it...that moment when their time as 007 expires. There are some commonalities to explore here, a few conspiracy theories, and a financial overview of Bond salaries that makes no sense whatsoever. Let's explore when things turned for each actor, and what if anything, we can learn about how things may play out in the future for the next one.

The conclusion to my Best/Worst Posters conversation with the one and only, Chris Morales (aka That One Bond Guy). Surprisingly, we had a lot of agreement on those posters that belong more in a dumpster fire outside your multiplex than on your wall.

Have a listen and see if you concur!

One year abstinence from ANY Bond movie. Will I make it? Why am I doing this? Let's break it down...

The Goldeneye 30th Anniversary Weekend is in the books! If you weren't able to attend, let me recap the details about this action-packed day that drew fans in from across eight Northeast states to celebrate the joyous occasion. It was filled with a lot laughs, great conversation, good cigars and booze, and a hell of a 35mm screening. Most importantly, it was filled with new friendships and introductions, rekindling old relationships, and just enjoying the company of your Bond brothers (and sisters!).

More importantly, the weekend opened up the conversation of the future of our community. Who should be raising their hand next to help our community grow the number and variety of events that we can regularly take part in? You should! Join me as I reflect back on this epic Bond experience.

My newest purchase. She's a bad mama jama.

Close your eyes for a moment and think back on all those times throughout your time out in the wild where Bond has appeared in your life. And now, think specifically of those less than overt Bond moments that you have encountered on a daily basis. Was there a 007 sushi roll on the menu at the restaurant? Did you happen to stroll down Bond Street today? Maybe your waiter at that sushi restaurant had a name tag labeled "Lupe" ? I know I've had plenty of those experiences over the years where my senses are drawn to Bond related things and places. The synapse connections in my brain get fired up when I have that sensory reaction to a Bond related word or item. Have you had the same experience before?

Join myself and "That One Bond Guy," Chris Morales, for an in-depth discussion of the Bond franchise's best and worst posters over the last sixty years. We'll share our personal favorites and why we are drawn to certain poster art. International versions, British quads, teaser and character designs, we'll cover it all. Part One focuses on our personal "Top 10 Best" plus some personal anecdotes about how we actually met years before I joined the community completely by accident. This is an AUDIO only version. Visit my social to follow along with the posters discussed.

Stay tuned for Part Two shortly!4
