LTU (Listen To Us)|Episode #007: "Royalties are Forever" Episode
Every few years, a new character is found to fill the shoes of the man who carries a license to kill. Sean Connery. Pierce Brosnan. That one guy nobody likes... you know who I'm talking about. Well anyway, move over Daniel Craig. With a sense of humor that would make even Roger Moore cringe, Steve Maiorana is here to down those shaken-not-stirred martinis and drive those unreasonably expensive cars. And if you actually believe that, you've probably never listened to this show before. With legal issues keeping the crew of LTU from using any real James Bond material in this show, Derek and Steve are limited to merely talking about the agent in the black tuxedo. But they aren't the only people facing copyright problems. Students at Boston University are now fighting back against the RIAA after being threatened for distributing copyrighted material. Their defense? The evidence against them was gathered illegally. It's quite a sticky situation, but LTU lightens the mood by recommending a spoof of the James Bond theme song and a machinima commentary on X-Box Live, as well as the movies "Sweeney Todd" and "Pirates of Silicon Valley." So even if the James Bond references aren't complete, we promise that only Timothy Dalton could listen to us with a straight face, provided that he doesn't kill us first.
