About this listen
S3E002: Bill Koenig, Javi Trujillo and David Leigh kick off a two-part celebration of Thunderball on its 60th anniversary. In this episode, they revisit their first viewings and the impressions the film left behind, then dive into Kevin McClory’s influence on the Bond series.
The discussion turns to SPECTRE and Blofeld—was it for the best that Eon dropped them in the 1970s, and why did their eventual return feel squandered? The hosts also talk about the SPECTRE ring and how the octopus logo makes no sense.
