Double Oz Seven - A James Bond Podcast

AN EPISODE?! WHAT IS THIS?! Yes, after eight months away, we're back—but it's with great sadness that we bring you our LAST EPISODE EVER. BOOO! Sadly, we've decided to end the show, but we're going out with a bang in this massive farewell episode. We relive all the best (and worst) bits, share our thoughts on the recent Bond news we've missed in early 2025, and drop all the truths and insights you need before we ride off into the sunset… and get blown up on an island to avoid being a father. It's sad, it's fun, it's a cele...

As you get yourself excited for another ‘best of’ episode, it’s time to get even more excited in knowing that you’re going to be hearing the best bits of some of our most funny episodes. Which episodes are those? Our rankings episodes of course! And given the amount of those we have already done, we’re going to drag these out more of course which means today is the first part of the ‘best of’ our rankings. Sound confusing? Just like our last ‘best of’ episode? Well once again you’ll have to listen to fully understand just how funny and g...

We did it once in 2022, and then another time in 2023, so now it’s time to do it for a THIRD TIME as we bring you our CHRISTMAS SPECATCULAR EPISODE! YAY! And given this write up could be a quiz question next year, let’s say the word DILDO and pretend that is relevant (it is) to this episode to celebrate another Christmas! Ben, Noah and Colin are all back to close out the year in style, with a look back at how they spent 2024 in Bond, see what they are predicting for 2025 and also now answer our famous Bond...

It’s that moment you love as you get ready for another clip show and somehow we have made it to our 17th ‘best of’ episode today and it’s a fun one. Today we are bringing you all the clips from all the episodes that haven’t fit in to any of our other ‘best of’ episodes. Confused? Well click away, listen away and enjoy away and you’ll find yourself understanding in no time! It’s one fun time that will have you laughing all the way until another day is new!

It’s another episode of your favourite James Bond podcast in which we avoid the episodes we promised by bringing you new versions of old episodes, as we once again talk about No Time To Die by doing a REDUX commentary of it! Why are we so pumped to be talking about this film again, even though we have done more episodes than most people have had chicken dinners? Why can we just glow about Billy Magnussen for three hours? What on earth is a Diane carrot? How does Noah know about Ben’s candle habits? How does this movi...

Apparently the REXUX commentary is a thing again as we once again recycle an old episode by bringing you a new version of it, as we REDUX our very first commentary from 2016 and talk over Dr No once more! Just why is this a Ben episode to do a Ben thing? Are we excited to be back with the dongs? How are we so pervy in this episode of bottoms and men? Are we excited to talk about a nice bouffant hairstyle? Has Noah come around on fancy British men in eight years? Do we miss Colin in this...

IT’S OUR 150TH EPISODE! YAY! So what are we doing to celebrate it? Getting another famous Bond actor on to talk about their time on the show? Going on location to a Bond location? Making a James Bond movie to celebrate? NONE OF THE ABOVE! Because this time to celebrate our GROUNDBREAKING 150th episode we are here to do ANOTHER RANKINGS! YAY! So you can get excited as we rank all the official James Bond movie posters from the last 62 years! WHAT A WAY TO CELEBRATE! Which, given the occasion, why is Colin not here once again? Why ar...

Another clip show? Sign us up! And sign yourselves up too right now as you get ready for the 16th ‘best of’ episode of your favourite James Bond podcast! Today you’ll hear clips of the first round of our series featuring films by each of the first six actors who have played James Bond, with each episode bringing a variety of highlights that will make you laugh, cry and everything else in between. So strap yourselves in for another epic ride down memory lane as you celebrate another epic episode!

It seems forever ago that we actually started as a podcast and it also seems forever ago that we talked about Spectre before it was even released. Well it’s time to remember those good old days as our 15th ‘best of’ episode celebrates our coverage of the very first James Bond movie that was released after we were born! That’s right, it’s time to go over all of those bits from our coverage leading up to the release of the 24th Bond movie, as well as a couple of episodes that followed! So sit back and get yourse...

It’s another rankings episode and time for a bit of fun as we go over all the times our favourite character has uttered his name in that true James Bond style as we rank all the Bond, James Bonds! Why are we extra mad at Colin for not being here this time? Why has Ben stuffed up the intro by not going with something obvious? Why are we so excited to talk about Australian ice creams? Would we get into a Citroen with Billy Magnussen? Why should we talk more about out proud kookaburras? What do we think of...

Last week we celebrated the most beautiful man alive with his 71st birthday. That’s right, Pierce Brosnan got a year older but another year more beautiful. So what better way to celebrate him and that occasion than with a special episode dedicated to the man himself at a very special event in Sydney! To celebrate him, a special double screening of two of his Bond films was held, with both Goldeneye and Tomorrow Never Dies screening to a dedicated group of fans in the Harbour City. Of course this meant Ben went along to check out the films to...

Another rankings episode coming your way today as we get into the nitty gritty of your favourite franchise by ranking all the unique gun barrel sequences that (mostly) start every single film! Why has Colin failed to show up again? Why is Die Another Day set to once again get blasted? What does Aaron Carter have to do with anything? Why does Only Fans have to do with anything? Are we surprised to learn where poo comes from? Why does Timothy Dalton look like he needs to do a poo? Why do we want so many of these gun...

It’s that time to get excited once more as we get into rankings and rank the things you like! This time we’re ranking all 25 films and their titles, a list that we know you’ve been waiting for and one that even we don’t know how will turn out! Just why is Colin missing again? How is this the most spread out list we’ve ever done? Does Ben’s criteria make any sense for his rankings? Why is Noah defending some titles we never thought he would? What does Steven Seagal have to do with anything? Wh...

We’re apparently on a bit of a roll with the rankings which means it’s time to bring you another episode of ranking things, this time with the entire gang back together (thanks Colin) as we rank all the 12 directors of the James Bond franchise in a list that we know will cause some debate! Why are we so judgmental on people’s names this episode? Why isn’t Ben controversial for once? Why is Colin controversial for once? What do we think of Gorillas in the Mist? Should people with two first names be trusted? Is a movie th...

After a ranking episode you loved a few weeks ago, let’s get into another one that you’ll love just as much as we rank both the entrances of all the actors to play James Bond as well as their exits from the franchise in another random yet fun list! Why has Colin once again not bothered to show up? Why is one of these lists rather easy and the other rather hard? Why do we feel for Roger Moore this episode? Is Colin over it being a blinking fish? What does Russia have to do with this epis...

Who doesn’t love a good ranking episode? We of course love them! Especially Ben & Noah! They love them so much that they’re back to bring you another one today as they rank all the Bond film titles dropped in a movie in one of the most unique rankings we’ve ever done! Why is this list so over the place? How is Colin involved when he’s not here? Why is Ben actually going to surprise people with his Die Another Day ranking this week? Is this a good week to be a Timothy Dalton fan? How on earth...

A very special interview coming your way today as we sit down with Willoughby Symphony Orchestra concertmaster Maria Lindsay ahead of the special James Bond symphony evening happening in Sydney to learn more about her love of music and just what to expect with the Willoughby Symphony Orchestra: An Evening with James Bond event! We learn from Maria more about what to expect and just what songs we may be able to hear during the event. We also find out just what exactly a concertmaster does, her own personal experience with the James Bond franchise and whether or not...

The year is 2024 and we’re back for another epic year of James Bond action! And what a way to kick things off for another year as we sit down with Drew Roller, the director of GoldenEra, to learn more about his epic movie about the history of the GoldenEye video game and just why it is such an iconic game that has stood the test of time after all of these years! We find out from Drew how he has found the reception of the film now that it’s been out for 18 months and just how nostalgic it h...

It seems like yesterday we finished our commentary series but enough time has passed that we can bring you a ‘best of’ episode featuring more clips, this time from all our commentaries of the Daniel Craig era James Bond films! That’s right, we have five movie commentaries to clip down for you today as we bring you all the good bits from those movies that came out between 2006 and 2021! So sit back, relax and listen to the best bits of our commentaries across five different films in The Best of Double Oz Seven Part 14!

So popular was our CHRISTMAS SPECTACULAR last year that we thought let’s do another one to make it even better! Either that or we just have apparently no lives on Christmas and can drown our sorrows in not getting nominated for a Bond Community podcast award again by doing another episode! No matter what the reason the result is another epic episode that features ALL THREE of your favourite hosts coming together to celebrate the festive period in true Double Oz Seven style! So tune in, tune up and tune around to get into the zone for another ep...

You know how much we love Pierce Brosnan on this show and you also know how much we love to bring you a clip show so it’s time to combine the two and bring you our 13th ‘best of’ episode with all the best bits of our Pierce Brosnan era of James Bond commentaries! You’ll hear all the funny and entertaining clips that came with each of our commentaries as we somehow tried to stay on topic during four films of one beautiful man! So click away and listen away and be sure to cuddle your best Brosnan...

Well we were meant to have this episode a month ago but for many reasons it didn't happen, but FINALLY we are here to do the rankings we actually want to do as we go over all of the iconic villain lairs in the history of James Bond to find out which one we think is the best! Is this, like some of our other rankings episodes, the most random one we can do with opinions all over the place? Why does it matter if a lair is lived in or not? Do we think some of these deserve...

We brought you a special REDUX commentary a few weeks ago and we're back to do it all over again as we celebrate the 52nd anniversary of DIAMONDS ARE FOREVER! And with Noah missing the original commentary, he is back to join Ben IN PERSON to talk over their cult favourite Bond film that Colin just doesn't appreciate! So how will this go? Will it all be talk and love for Plenty O'Toole? What about 'blow up your pants kid'? Why are we so angry at Colin today? Why can’t he just like this film? Why can’t he b...

A special episode dropping for you today as we are joined by two prominent names in the James Bond fan community at a very special event! We sit down with the president & founder of the British James Bond Fan Club Philip Dewhurst as well as the man behind James Bond Downunder James Roberts to not only learn more about what it is they do, but celebrate the 40th anniversary of Octopussy at a special screening of the film in Sydney. Both men tell us just how they got involved in the Bond fan community and why it is so...

On an iconic day in movie history, we’re back with ANOTHER episode dedicated to THAT film that (Ben) we can’t stop talking about, Die Another Day! And on the 21st anniversary of the movie, Ben is back and has forced Noah to do ANOTHER commentary on the movie that we seemingly just can’t stop talking about! Why is Noah under pressure to do this just because he is in the same house as Ben? Can Noah last the whole movie this time? Why is he saying some nice things about the movie? Why does he force Ben to...

An episode of rankings! YAY! It’s been a few months but we’re back as this time around we’re here to rank all those famous James Bond villain deaths that are so epic and memorable! How will this episode be different with two of our hosts in the same room? What stupid opinions will Ben have this episode? What stupid opinions will Colin & Noah also apparently have in this episode? Why aren’t we doing the villain lairs? What do we think about parsnips? Why is Ben such a good host, on a podcast and in a home set...

You’ve dealt with us commentating over some pretty bad non-official Bond films so why not another one? Because we’re back for our commentary of the grand daddy of all the non-official Bond films, the 1983 movie that saw Sean Connery return to the role and create a battle we didn’t know we needed, Never Say Never Again. Are we going to pay attention to this film this time? Are we going to be more complimentary than our last commentary? Did we realise that last line actually rhymed? Why are we so happy to wish Noah a happy birthd...

It’s been a couple of months since our last commentary and we’re back to change that as the entire crew is once again together to bring you their unique talking over the 1967 version of Casino Royale! Why was this the movie we all wanted to commentate over? Why do we not remember this movie? Why is this movie so long? Why are we doing this? Why are we typing things out in this intro when we don’t want to do this episode? Why would you want to listen to this episode? Why are you still reading this...

A miracle has happened her on DOUBLE OZ SEVEN. An actual miracle. BEN HAS READ ALL THE IAN FLEMING NOVELS! Amazing! Can you believe it?!?! Well he has! So get excited and pumped because it’s true! And to make sure it’s true, we’re back for our final episode on our ‘Ben Reads The Fleming Novels’ series by going over the two short story novels in For Your Eyes Only and Octopussy and the Living Daylights to close out this amazing group of episodes in style! How do these stories hold up and why are we all so intrigu...

How great were the 1980s? And even more so, how great were James Bond films in the 1980s? And even more more so, how great were our episodes talking over the 1980s James Bond films? If you don’t know the answer to at least one of those, then it’s time to get yourself excited for another Double Oz Seven clip show as we bring you our 12th ‘best of’ episode with all the highlights from our commentaries from each of the five 1980s James Bond films! So click download and get yourself in the entertainment zone for an episo...

Is this possible?! Ben has read MORE books!? And now he has finished the main group of Ian Fleming books?! INSANE! But putting aside that miracle, it’s time to hear some more thoughts and revisit the Ian Fleming books as Ben, Colin & Noah talk about On Her Majesty’s Secret Service, You Only Live Twice and The Man With The Golden Gun in true Double Oz Seven style! How did Ben finish these books in such a decent amount of time? What will he think of these books given they are so different from each other? How scared are...

After once again promising we’d get to our next movie recap featuring a Bond actor in another role ages ago, we are FINALLY back to continue our series as we move back into George Lazenby territory and looking at his first film post Bond in the…uh…interesting movie that is Universal Soldier from 1971. Do we get anything that is happening in this movie? Is this movie basically a biopic of George Lazenby in the 70s? Why do we think George Lazenby looks hot with this long hair and moustache? Are we glad there is a hovercraft in this f...

Well somehow miracles keep happening and Ben keeps reading books as we return once again for our latest instalment of BEN READS THE FLEMING NOVELS as Ben gets into the next 3 Bond books of Goldfinger, Thunderball and The Spy Who Loved Me. Do we expect Ben to love all these novels because they are the ones that aren’t really loved? Are we most afraid to hear Ben’s opinions on The Spy Who Loved Me? Why are these books so hard to read when the movies themselves are very iconic? Why are scripts being made about Shrek and Roge...

We always love to promise the world and deliver and atlas, but today we FINALLY are getting to some commentaries that we have been wanting to deliver for about 34908 years as we bring you our unique talk over the 1954 version of Casino Royale that we know you have been waiting for! Why are we all excited to do this episode? Why have none of the boys watched this since we covered it? Will ads be a problem? Who is PizzaFlix? Who is Hoot Gibson? Is Hoot Gibson our new favourite person? Do we want to be Hoot Gibson? Is...

Another episode that you weren’t expecting is here as we bring you another rankings and another episode without Colin (sort of) as we get into ranking all those rejected theme songs that we’re sure you know so well! Is this the absolute craziest list we have ever done? How can we even rank these songs? How is Colin not on this episode but then randomly on the episode? Are we all searching for the Goldeneye? Are we all into the Hooley Dooleys? What is a reverse kanga and why is it relevant? Are we sad to hear of t...

It’s 2023 which means another awesome year of your 35th favourite James Bond podcast as we come together (sort of) to rank all the other songs of the Bond franchise that we love, hate and everything else in between! Why isn’t Colin on here yet he can still rank? Why is Lani Hall reaching around so much? Do we like Colin’s random rankings that we haven’t talked about before? What epic Bond fact do we find out that will blow your mind? How much Madonna can be talked about? Why do we want Timothy Dalton singing these so...

How on earth do we have enough bits that we deem ‘good’ to create yet another ‘best of’ episode? And somehow our TENTH one?! Well,  you’re about to find out with another clip show, as we bring you the best bits of our commentaries from the 1960s era of James Bond! You’ll hear some classic moments as we talk over six different James Bond films and stay on topic for at least 35% of the time! So get your memory brain into gear as you enjoy some epic and funny moments from our 1960s movie commentaries!

It’s an episode completely unplanned that only two of the hosts showed up for it but we are here to bring you an amazing SPECIAL EPISODE to celebrate the Christmas (Jones) period with the first ever DOUBLE OZ SEVEN CHRISTMAS (JONES) SPECTACULAR! Join Ben & Noah as they talk about a variety of James Bond related topics completely sober, as well as do some very unique and special James Bond quizzes completely sober as well in an episode you wish we would’ve done every year! So as you recover from all the food comas of the holiday period, get...

We’ve been very lucky to have some great interviews here on Double Oz Seven and in yet another clip show it’s time to go over those in another ‘best of’ episode celebrating each of our epic guests! You’re going to hear from actors who have appeared in Bond films, authors who have written books about James Bond, people who have never even seen a Bond film until before their interview and even an icon of television who somehow we shoehorned into an episode on a James Bond podcast. Who are these people? Well you’ll have to listen to...
