That’s certainly the concern. I wasn’t exactly an early podcast producer, but it feels like there might be 10x the number of movie podcasts from when #Bond_age_Pod first started. Or even the first couple of seasons of Cinema Shame. Maybe the saturation of lesser podcasts has made everyone weary.
Back when I first started the #Bond_age_Pod, each episode spurred random engagement with people I didn’t know and didn’t follow on Twitter. Old Twitter, of course, feels like a century ago, but the social format remains (generally) in tact — and yet our creative voices are being suffocated.
We talk about how Lazenby fared as “the other fellow,” Blofeld’s serial ineffectiveness, Diana Rigg (queen), winter sports, if Allan felt this was the most Canadian Bond, and I can’t help but get angry about SPECTRE. Again.

NEW ON THE @cinemashame.bsky.social PODCAST!
@houseofglib.bsky.social
defibs the #Bond_age_Pod, bringing me out of OO-retirement to discuss his first-time watch of the 6th Bond adventure, Peter Hunt’s ON HER MAJESTY’S SECRET SERVICE (1969).
Link in thread.
Is it the return of the #Bond_age_Pod? Only in spirit.
While producing irregular and drunken podcast content for the #Bond_age_Pod (RIP), I started the @cinemashame.bsky.social podcast - where guests watch a movie they "should have seen by now." I dragged @houseofglib.bsky.social in as co-host two years ago. podcasts.apple.com/us/podcast/c...
And my #Bond_age_Pod prep consisted of drinking martinis while Cinema Shame is hours of prep. Wait. Maybe that’s the problem!
Agreed on all points. When I think about how much traction the #Bond_age_Pod got on old Twitter vs. Cinema Shame on all social platforms now it’s a little depressing. The steady increase in subs flatlined after Musk. No conversation. No engagement.
