@BackPagePod in Bath with my partner and her parents this weekend and kept zoning out of all the 18th century chat on the walking tour because I was wondering which of the many bagel shops I was passing had been mentioned on the podcast before. Not sure if this is praise or not.

New episode! Did you know that the makers of Hitman have developed a game based on the James Bond franchise?

I felt incredibly pandered to by this one, but I couldn't resist it. As a collection of action and stealth mechanics it's uneven, but as a Bond experience it's absolutely fantastic. There's a music cue in this that had me levitating from the couch. https://t.co/Xk7yJSpPvY

Great news: we have *both* played 007 First Light in time for this week's episode. Cheers IO!

We will also run a spoilercast on the game for Patreon next month. 👀
