Strictly Scandal, Bond Corner: Extending 007 & Men and Fiction

The Discourse

Welcome back to THE DISCOURSE, a podcast about film, entertainment & culture.

In this episode, Carl and Tony discuss the air of scandal surrounding the BBC's flagship entertainment series Strictly Come Dancing - can it weather the storm?

Plus! In a Bond Corner segment, they chat a recent announcement that gadgetmaster Q is getting his own detective novel and wonder whether an expanded 007 universe is going too far.

Finally, following an article suggesting men do not read fiction, they wonder about the link between men, reading for pleasure, storytelling and toxic masculinity...

New episodes of The Discourse drop Mondays and Wednesdays...
