This week, @momixpod mixes The Queen Elizabeth Cocktail, inspired by 2008’s "Quantum of Solace." While the hosts point out that Casino Royale’s sequel is anything but classy, they certainly agree that Dame Judi Dench is the true royal inspiration behind this week’s episode. As they sip their tart drinks, Pat and Marissa discuss why Quantum sticks out as a disappointing moment in an otherwise exceptional Craig-era run. Will the hosts ever be able to put their bitter feelings and comparisons to Casino Royale aside? Will their biases allow them to give Quantum a fair shake? Listen on to find out!
BOND: "You know, I was just wondering what South America would be like if no one gave a damn about coke or communism. It's always impressed me the way you boys have carved this place up."
FELIX: "I'll take that as a compliment coming from a Brit."
Leiter takes a swig of the cheap beer the bartender has laid in front of him.
BOND: "Are you sure you're playing with the right side?"
FELIX: "Regimes change once a week down here. Medrano'll be no dirtier than the next guy."
