Kill James Bond 2025 Year in Review (Questions closed)

Hey everyone, Devon here.

2025 has been one of those years that I doubt anyone is too cut up to see the back of. It's a year where it's close to impossible to think of anything good that happened. So, allow me to look back at our 2025.

Kill James Bond has continued its titanic run. While most of the "industry", and indeed some of our sister pods, showed some contraction owing to the cost-of-living crisis, KJB has remained steady. Your loyalty will, of course, continue to be rewarded. We will never increase the price of our minimum tier or paywall off content that you're accustomed to behind higher tiers. £5 a month gets you everything, forever.

We will never stop being candid in our support for trans rights, for palestine, for those of us with disabilities. As the world draws lines ever clearer, we know what side we are on. You've helped raise tens of thousands this year for causes like THAMRA, Water is Life, and the PCYU. On a personal note, my beloved friend Ahmed, who was a personal trainer from Rafah and now has no birth city, erased in its entirety by israeli bombs and bulldozers, has survived the active genocide of the last two years alongside his wife and children. He's lost friends and family, but with your constant support he is alive and trying to rebuild. My gratitude for what you have done is inexpressible.

In 2026 and beyond, Kill James Bond will remain an oasis of calm, of serious film analysis, and of humour. There will be just as many Sams as Nurembergs, just as many Attack of the Clones as Parasites, and just as much of everything we've all come to love about this beautiful show that we make together, you and us.

The sideshow 'Boney Island Whitefish', as an aside, will continue to drop a day before episodes of KJB. Andrew, Riley, and I will review an episode of season 6 of 'Bones' weekly until we run out, at which point we'll stop and the feed will be pure KJB again. By default, you get a mixed RSS feed of KJB and Bones, but the option is available to get either on their own dedicated RSS feeds.

Now, we move on to the active portion of this post: Next week, we're recording our twelfth Q&A episode, and we need you to send in your Qs!
