Keep forgetting to queue this up. Sorry about that.
This episode of Human Bondage sees the gang divided over one of James Bond’s silliest adventures. Jack Graham joins us for a bit, and it’s generally a good time.…
Human Bondage returns with a banger of an episode on The Spy Who Loved Me, Roger Moore’s classic third outing as James Bond. It’s a good time: we cover nuclear bombs, submarines, and conclusively solve the problem of Steven Moffat.…
Hello all! James Bond has indeed returned, this time in Human Bondage‘s discussion of The Man With the Golden Gun, where Roger Moore, armed only with a Walther PPK, spurs with Christopher Lee’s third nipple. Elliot Chapman is our guest this month, and as always he’s dazzling and charming and enchanting, and bafflingly willing to put up with our nonsense. We’ve got a great show for you, as always, and as always HUMAN BONDAGE WILL RETURN.…
Hi, y’all! It’s me. Sorry for my absence. Returning to college has been wild. Taking a year off to focus on my mental health and healing from a glut of trauma means a slightly longer adjustment period as I’m starting my Bachelor’s degree. I’ve also been on the ground monitoring Turning Point USA and local fascist groups, which you may have seen on my Twitter. The Erebor posts are taking longer than I expected too (that place takes a while to write about), but I’ll try to release those back-to-back soon.
In James Bond-related news, this month Human Bondage is back in a tragically James-free edition (Mr. Slater-Murphy was out of action that night). Kit and I are joined by our friend Miranda, previously an Eruditorum Presscast guest, to talk about Live and Let Die, Roger Moore’s bizarre blaxploitation debut as James Bond 007. We’re so happy to be done with Sean Connery, but we’re even happier to have Miranda on. She’s brilliant and hilarious and has never seen a James Bond movie before, which leads to some of the most insightful commentary this show has ever had and also some hilarious dunking on our gringo asses. Miranda and I also make Kit feel extremely old, and the results are hysterical. This is a really great show, and we all loved recording it.
Check out Miranda’s DeviantArt if you like My Little Pony: Friendship is Magic, by the way. There’s some talk about that in the show, much to Kit’s confusion as he audibly ages out of existence.…
Last month we uploaded our On Her Majesty’s Secret Service show. As always, Kit, James, and I had a lot of fun, and you should check it out. Alas for Eruditorum Press-only readers, someone neglected to update the site that we’d put up a new episode (it may have been your favorite trans Christian hippie Tolkien scholar. We’ll never know). We actually seemed to like the movie on the whole, for probably the first time since Kit and I talked From Russia With Love. About 80% of that is down to Diana Rigg, aka the best goddamn part of a Bond movie ever, so there’s plenty of Tracy Bond adulation. Trigger warnings apply, as always.
And this week we’re releasing our Diamonds Are Forever show! In it we talk Connery’s second and last swansong as Bond (yes, it is, go fuck yourself). Las Vegas, stupid plotting, cute rats, and Peter Griffin make appearances. It’s also James’ favorite podcast in recent memory, so bear that in mind. You lucky people have two Human Bondage shows to listen to if you haven’t heard one! We hope listening to it brings you as much delight as we experienced recording it.
Human Bondage will return next month with Live and Let Die, where the Bondage crew are joined by my delightful friend Miranda, who you might remember from the last Eruditorum Presscast. We run a good show. Have fun with it.…
After a (Jesus) 7-month hiatus, Of Human Bondage, or Human Bondage as we’re rebranding it, is back. Kit and I have functionally rebooted the project, with a co-host lineup change, new theme music, and losing the preposition. Otherwise it’s the same show, and Kit and I are still cracking jokes and being insightful about James Bond movies. We’re pleased to announce that our friend James Slater-Murphy of Pex Lives celebrity has joined us for our grilling of You Only Live Twice, an execrable piece of anti-Japanese schlock that we nonetheless have a lovely conversation about. As always we include a content warning, particularly for the troubling 10-minute segment at the head of the show, but afterwards things go quite smoothly. We hope you enjoy the show at least once; or even twice, to match your number of lives. …
