    Makes mine look like the LA shithole Apollo Creed takes Rocky Balboa to in Rocky III.

    I'm not to much of a fan of the bond body episodes as i prefer the bond regiment that Fleming laid out, although i sort of do the extreme version instead of 20 pushups i do forty, least we forget how Fleming reacted to Connery at first " .. an over grown stuntsman, I'm looking for commander James Bond". Imagine what his reactionw ould have been to Craig :o ( kidding i'm a big fan of Craigger)
    Thats my oppinion. ;)

    Thoroughly, Looking forward to the drinks of Bond, -{

    Thanks again Mantis for taking you time do these. :)

    I pretty much think Fleming would have hated the Craig look, particularly the CR version.

    However, I'm sure Fleming would have been delighted with the Layer Cake version of Craig.

    "Just keep that dear boy away from a gym, old boy. Otherwise he'll be perfect".

    So in the end, we're all working on the Daniel Craig look, really. Not James Bond.... :o

    Rest assured that Bond Cocktails Part 2 will be posted next week! AND there will be a much LONGER version posted on beingjamesbond.com at the same time. Tempted to post some of the upcoming vidpodcast subjects to show the variety but I am wondering if the surprise is half the fun?

    Good afternoon,

    I am excited to announce that www.jamesbondlifestyle.com will be airing a weekly video podcast on living the James Bond lifestyle. Different subjects will be discussed but the first one is up and ready for viewing. The host of the podcast lacks the personality to carry this off effectively BUT the subjects seem to be of interest....enjoy!

    Mantis,

    Since I am an old french-canadian, can you write down what are the buttons of the TF cardigan made of? I can't figure it out when you say it.

    Thanks.

    Oh! so rare wood black buttons. We should try to find a made-to-order company that will reproduce the buttons so that we all can change them on our own cardigans.

    Didn't the Mythbusters made a two-part James Bond myths special in which they painted someone gold?

    They did indeed - in fact I think they tested the myth twice. As I remember Adam was painted first and they busted the myth but it was revisited in the Bond Special where Jamie was painted. I think there was also another episode where Kari got painted silver.

    Here is Jamie's attempt: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=PryZ8Cx6oNc

    The episode when Kari gets the paint job comes highly recommended :p

    Great job on the videos Mantis I haven't been able to watch all of them yet with finals around the corner but of the ones I have watched they were awesome.

    On another note it might have been asked already and forgive me for asking if so but has there been any consideration of making the the Quantum of Solace workout video podcast? or was the casino royale workout chosen in the beginning between the two because of all the women going crazy of the CR build?
  • The Bond ExperienceThe Bond Experience Newtown, PAPosts: 5,490Quartermasters
    It's a great question...many of the excercises can be rejiggered to create a more Quantum, or sleaker build. A definite consideration for upcoming ones. The next several podcasts will be focusing on collecting and fashion again but we will get back to more physical elemnts as well...I have a LOOOOOOONG list.

    Keep up the videos. After watching the Bond travel luggage video, I'm going to try the new packing method. I used to be a fold every piece separately person.
