Bond, AI Ick and the Return of the iPod

About this episode

Bobby and Jon discuss the future of James Bond, summer dressing, and the impact of AI on modern entertainment.

251 Bobby and Jon are back with another unscripted Tailoring Talk catch-up, covering everything from Bond First Light and the future of 007 to summer dressing, Tom Hardy on holiday, AI-generated content, old iPods and why everyone might secretly want a dumb phone again. In this episode, Roberto and Jon get into the strange state of modern entertainment and technology. There’s talk of Amazon’s Bond future, whether the next 007 era needs time to breathe, and why Bond First Light might be the closest we’re getting to a new Bond adventure for a while. They also wander into summer style territory, including linen, suede chukka boots and what men should actually wear when the weather gets hot but they still need to look smart. Then the conversation shifts into AI, authenticity, social media fatigue and whether we’re heading towards a resurgence of more human, handmade and analogue things. Also featuring: Tom Hardy ski trip stories, iPod nostalgia, AppleCare confusion, possible AirPods Pro cameras, the dream of a distraction-free music player and Jon’s very unexpected Nintendo Pikmin oven dish.
