Ep 240 Ian Flemings Casino Royale 1953 Book Review : Do You Expect Us To Talk?

Do You Expect Us To Talk returns back to Fleming. Back to where we started but to a new medium. The first time we cover not a film but a book. Casino Royale written in 1953, was the first novel to feature the spy, James Bond. Assigned to play and bankrupt, in a game of baccarat, a paymaster for a communist union who has lost soviet subsidies in bad investments. With the help of Rene Mathis, Felix Leiter and female agent and love interest Vesper Lynd, have to take down the grotesque Le Chiffre, before SMERSH does.

Join Becca, Dave and Chris as we discuss is Bond really that sexist, how we been saying Mathis wrong this whole time, Garth Marenghi and how Fleming likes to describes Vesper's.. ahem... assists?
