Episode 073 - The Basics of Scuba Diving Feb 23, 2015

Show notes

BOND THE SPORTSMAN -- "His eyes strained to see through the murk, but so far nothing more than ribbons of sunlight rippling through the green water. He could hear the cascade of bubbles exhausting from his regulator but the speed at which he swam left them behind." Scuba diving is a sport integral to the Bond lifestyle!

INNER 007 -- A Paleo Lifestyle is what takes the Paleo Diet and pushes it into all facets of your life. It's looking at the ways that our Paleolithic ancestors not only survived, but thrived, and uses evolution as a framework for the way you live your life.

Episode 071 - Harry's Bar Aug 15, 2014

Show notes

TRAVEL -- "If he wanted a solid drink, he had it at Harry's Bar, because of the solidness of the drinks, and because on his first visit to Paris at age sixteen, started one of the memorable evenings of his life, culminating in the loss of his virginity, and his notecase." Make no mistake, Harry's is a drinking man's bar.

Episode 069 - Scott's Restaurant Aug 05, 2014

Show notes

TRAVEL -- As the New York Times put it, "Once you walk past the liveried doorman and set foot in Scott's, the venerable seafood restaurant where even clarified butter is raised to an art, the world ceases to exist." Scott's truly takes fine seafood dining to the next level.

Episode 068 - The One and Only Ocean Club Aug 01, 2014

Show notes

TRAVEL -- In my humble opinion, no existing James Bond location is as authentic, untouched, and accurate to how it's portrayed in the film. If you've seen James Bond walking through the Ocean Club in Casino Royale, then you can walk in the front door, and know exactly where you are.

Episode 067 - Piz Gloria Jul 31, 2014

Show notes

TRAVEL -- When it comes to skiing, Switzerland is unmatched, and when it comes to Bond locations, there is one that is second to none; The grandfather of all Bond ski chases started at the magnificent Piz Gloria, and endured down the side of Mount Schilthorn, in Murren, Switzerland.

Episode 065 - What is M's Real Name? Oct 05, 2013

Show notes

CINEMATIC 007 - For many years, the M's real name was a closely guarded secret, but this wasn't always the case. In the beginning, M's identity was fairly well known, particularly by James Bond, going all the way back to the writings of Ian Fleming.

Episode 064 - The Paleo Diet: Part 1 Jul 01, 2013

Show notes

INNER 007 -- No doubt, James Bond is a connoisseur of great food. From cracked stone crabs with melted butter and pink champagne in Miami, to grilled ray with butter sauce in the Caribbean, Bond is a lover of its endless variety. Few notice that Bond's diet is very close to what we would call The Paleo Diet.
