From Japan to the Pacific Islands to the Americas — Part 2 of our series on human sacrifice and ritual death across history, weighing documented evidence against myth and colonial-era retellings.

James Bond isn't just spy fiction — creator Ian Fleming spent WWII in Britain's real Naval Intelligence Division, and decades of Cold War-era films picked up threads from real espionage and real geopolitics along the way.

Sean and I are joined by special guest Doc Rock to dig into two very different Bond eras — Licence to Kill (1989) and A View to a Kill (1985) — tracing the villains, the settings, and the strange real-world echoes underneath them: money laundering fronts, Cold War tech paranoia, and even unexpected threads back to Hemingway and Kennedy. We're not claiming Bond predicted anything — just looking at where fiction and reality happen to rhyme.
