Bond has to deal with an offshoot from the Russian experiments (the maniac Zorin played by Christopher Walken) coupled with a fierce (as ever) Grace Jones (MayDay) – what a combo!

All episodes of the Bond Poetic are available as a Podcast (via Anchor/Spotify) and available on other podcast platforms like Apple and Google.)
