HAPPY BIRTHDAY JAMES BOND

James Bond

Daniel Craig attends the World Premiere of “NO TIME TO DIE” at the Royal Albert Hall on September 28, 2021 in London, England.

James Bond , happy birthday !  Well, one of them anyway.  Today is Daniel Craig's 55th birthday.  So today we will celebrate by doing James Bond Trivia on Wiki-Pete-ia today on the Shemon and Sheppard Show.  Tune it at 4:45 ish while we play on ESPN Southwest Florida.  Be caller number nine at 239-337-3776 or 239-337-ESPN and win prizes by competing against Pete Sheppard in trivia.  Mind you, Pete is full of useless information.  Also, mind you, his grasp of movie trivia is uncanny.  And he's pretty good at Bond trivia in particular so be prepared!

James Bond movies featured many different Bond actors over the years.  Almost everyone has a favorite.  Most of them are pretty memorable. Perhaps you have a favorite as well.

I have a strange relationship with Bond movies.  I always look forward to them.  I almost always go see the new ones when they are released and I enjoy them.  However, I rarely feel the need to rewatch them later.  Not sure why but I'm always one and done.  It is something I can't explain.  Nevertheless, we will test everyone's James Bond knowledge during Wiki-Pete-ia.  And here's the list of questions so you can play at home!
