1:36

hard He said everything I have to say is in my book Which

1:39

we respect We lost two great musicians, Leon

1:41

Russell and the great Leonard Cohen And

1:43

this one that a lot of people Tweeted

1:46

about and put on our Facebook is

1:48

Lupita Tovar Yes, she was in the

1:50

original Spanish language

1:53

version of Dracula That

1:55

they shot at the same

1:57

time That's right That they would do

2:00

doing the Legosi version and

2:02

when the Legosi people would be wrapped

2:04

up for the day, they would

2:07

leave and they'd bring in

2:09

this Spanish cast and

2:11

they would do all the scenes that way.

2:14

Some people feel that the

2:16

Spanish version, cinematically, was

2:19

better. I mean the Legosi version

2:21

for the most part. It's all

2:23

stagey. Yeah. The Legosi

2:26

version. Yeah. Very, very

2:28

theatrical. There are lots of the Legosi version

2:30

that look great, but

2:32

it seems like the minute they started

2:34

doing something to make it look great,

2:36

it's almost like a studio hit probably

2:39

said, no, we want the stage version

2:41

on film. I think we talked about

2:43

that movie with Joan and David. Do

2:46

you remember? Oh yeah. With David Healy?

2:48

Yeah. Yeah. But

2:50

she died Tova Feltia. Yes.

2:53

No, Lipitor. That

2:56

Lipitor. Lipita. Lipita

2:58

Tova. Lipitor. Lipitor. It's

3:02

the Spanish for Lipitor. She died at 106.

3:06

That's about right now range. Yeah, yeah.

3:09

I suspect foul play. You do.

3:12

Yeah. Yeah. It

3:14

was either that or drugs. It's like that Jeff

3:16

Ross joke he does about his Nana dying in

3:18

her 90s and his cousin says how did it

3:21

happen and he says her shoot didn't open. And

3:27

there was let's see. Oh,

3:32

I forget now. But no, no, I

3:35

remember we were thinking of getting caught

3:37

calling her. Did she speak English? Well,

3:40

who cares at this point? I

3:43

said she was 105. What's

3:47

the rush? Exactly. Yeah. So.

3:50

She was the grandmother, I believe, of

3:53

the director of American Pie. Oh,

3:55

isn't that interesting? And she was

3:57

married. Wasn't she married to. Um,

4:01

the son of the head of

4:03

Universal. I believe so. Yeah. What

4:06

was his name again? Koner. Fuck.

4:09

Yeah, I think. No, not Koner. Oh, you

4:11

mean she was married to a Lemley? A Lemley. Yeah.

4:14

Like Carl Lemley's son. Yeah. I

4:16

think her son was Paul Koner who represented

4:18

Billy Wilder. Oh, okay. Yeah, which is also

4:21

a good trivia. Yeah, she was very

4:23

hot back then when she was in the

4:25

Spanish Dracula. 106,

4:27

missed out on her and so

4:29

R.I.P. Lupita Tovar and also Robert

4:32

Vaughn. And it's important to remember

4:34

Robert Vaughn was also a teenage

4:36

caveman. Yeah, somebody on Facebook said

4:38

if you bring up Robert Vaughn, in

4:41

fact he said maybe that's why Robert Vaughn was

4:43

avoiding the interview. Gilbert would

4:45

bring up teenage cavemen but

4:47

also Bullet and so many other

4:50

great movies. Bullet was packed with

4:52

actors like that. We talked about

4:54

it. Yeah. Yeah. And

4:57

I want to thank quickly Steve Binder, our

4:59

last two guests, Steve Binder and John Amos

5:01

for giving us wonderful shows and thank Jeff

5:03

Abraham for bringing us Steve and Paul Baldessari

5:05

for bringing us John. And I

5:07

want to welcome Greg Payer who is to the

5:09

family, to the podcast family who is on her

5:12

Twitter master. To John Amos, two

5:15

things. One, thank you for doing

5:17

the podcast and two, damn, damn,

5:21

damn. You were kicking

5:23

yourself. You didn't get

5:25

to that. Our researcher Paul

5:27

Rayburn is here with us. Now, this

5:30

is interesting. Occasionally we get requests from

5:33

listeners, why don't you do this kind of

5:35

show, why don't you do that kind of

5:37

show. A guy named Wally Sisniak, I hope

5:39

I'm getting his name right, wrote me. That

5:41

sounds like a Groucho Marx character. Wally Sis-

5:43

Professor Sisniak. He

5:46

wrote me on Facebook, on our Facebook page and

5:49

he said why don't you guys do a bond

5:51

episode. And I thought is

5:53

there a reason for us doing a bond episode

5:55

out of the blue. So I just googled guys.

5:57

He never stopped. No, more. Gary U.S.

6:00

No, no, James Bond. I

6:02

was looking for a reason to do

6:04

a James Bond episode, and I stumbled

6:07

onto November 11th, which was this week.

6:09

Apparently, it's James Bond's birthday. The

6:12

character was born in 1920. Did you know this? I

6:14

did not know this. Yes. So I

6:17

thought, well, there you go. There's an

6:19

anniver of a birthday. There's a reason

6:21

to do this. Now, James Bond was

6:23

actually based on a real-life character. I

6:26

believe he was. You mean the name,

6:28

how he named the character? Well, not

6:30

the name, but there was actually some

6:32

secret agent or spy who

6:34

was doing these things. Well, Ian Fleming lived

6:36

in that world. Oh, yeah. The creator of

6:38

Bond. So I think he was based on

6:40

a real person. Look that up. All

6:43

right, Paul. Make yourself fucking useful. Yeah. You're

6:45

coming here. I'm still wondering what you're pointing

6:47

to. What do you pay the guy? I

6:49

don't mind. I don't mind you're asking that.

6:51

My problem is I don't have an answer.

6:53

All right, well, we can fill. Look

6:56

it up. Look up who the real-life James Bond

6:58

is. I have a name answer. Apparently, the story

7:00

is- You have what? I have a sort of

7:02

answer. He's got an answer. Frank, he's got an

7:04

answer. So there's an NBC show called Timeless. I

7:06

don't know if you've seen this thing now. Oh,

7:09

I've heard of it. It's like a time travel

7:11

and they got to go. There's this big chase

7:13

through time. There was an episode where they end

7:15

up in Germany and they stumble

7:17

upon a, I guess,

7:19

a soldier, and it's Ian Fleming.

7:22

Ah. Oh, I saw that advertised. So apparently,

7:25

he was at some point, because it's based

7:27

a lot on actual stuff. So from what

7:29

I'm to understand is, he was actually an

7:31

agent himself, and a lot of

7:34

his stories are based on his own actual events.

7:36

But I think there was yet another

7:38

one. Interesting. So there's

7:40

a Wikipedia entry called, Inspirations

7:43

for James Bond. Yeah, let's hear it. Believe it

7:45

or not. So many, many names

7:47

have been suggested. The

7:49

code number 007 referred to the

7:51

breaking of a World War I

7:54

German diplomatic code. That's cool. Which

7:56

is cool. And some

7:58

of Bond's activities
