The James Bond Radio podcast has ended after almost nine years.
Co-host Tom Sears disclosed the development in a short episode today. Sears said he and Chris Wright, the other co-host, have personal reasons for pulling the plug on the podcast. James Bond Radio began in 2014.
Sears said James Bond Radio would maintain a social media presence.
James Bond Radio, in addition to chat about Bond, also talked to 007 film crew members and people with ties to the literary Bond.
The podcast’s biggest “get” was a 2016 interview with Roger Moore a year before the 007 actor died. Moore’s voice (“Hi, this is Roger Moore and you’re listening to James Bond Radio”) has been used to start off episodes.
Below is the YouTube version of today’s episode with the announcement.
