About Quantum of History

In every James Bond 007 movie there's not only a great story, but there's rich real life history. This podcast is dedicated to not only talking about the movies, but telling the real life history that inspired the movie. Its my love of James Bond and my love of history combined into one podcast.

   Episode 51 - The World Economic Forum

   What exactly is the World Economic Forum and what is their agenda? In this episode, I go over many of the agendas of the WEF and a little of the history of the WEF. With world leaders in Davos now, it is a great time to discuss what is the WEF and how the WEF could easily be a storyline for Bond 26.
