Summary
Ross is joined by returning guest, friend of the show, and resident Bondologist Paul Klein to talk 1997's "Tomorrow Never Dies". They look at how the franchise continued to adapt to the End of History 90s and the evolution of the "Bond Girl", as well as the film's (shockingly accurate) prescience.
