What listeners say

A curated, balanced selection of Apple Podcasts reviews.

As a lifelong Bond fan myself, I have thoroughly enjoyed following Tom, Tom, and Brendan on their journey of discovery. Even though I have a strong James Bond knowledge base myself, there’s always something new to learn. The hosts and their guests do a fantastic job unearthing new details I had never known, offering new insights I had never considered, and introducing new guests I had never encountered. Informative, yet lighthearted, and with top notch production value. Highly recommended for any Bond fan.

Perfect balance of banter and bond with a lot of great research done. This is the one to listen to.

I’d been somewhere in between a casual and hardcore 007 fan since I was a teenager but the upcoming release of No Time to Die has pushed me over the edge. After looking around for a good podcast to listen to, the James Bond A-Z Podcast has been the perfect source for taking a deep dive into this franchise. The hosts are clearly huge fans, very knowledgeable, and have great banter with each other. I’ve learned so much and am eager to learn more. Great work guys and keep it up!

I came for No Time to Die but stayed for the Pierce Brosnan talk This is an informative, well researched, and fun James Bond podcast. I learn something new about Bond every episode while having a few laughs along the way. The hosts’ friendship comes through in every episode which makes it an easy listen. I can’t recommend this enough if you are looking for a podcast to get you ready for No Time to Die.
