Ep.78- FOX 3 on NEMO! F-15C Pilot-Turned-Watch Dude Talks Bremont, Vintage Seiko, and more
Colonel Richard Sweeten-callsign "NEMO"- joins Matt for a chat about watches and USAF fighters. NEMO spent a full career as a fighter pilot in the United States Air Force, starting as an instructor in the T-37, the T-41 (Matt flew these!), and then moving on to the mighty F-15C. NEMO is a watch guy through and through, and spent a big chunk of time helping to build Bremont into the premier "military partner" watch brand that it is today. This one is EPIC! The "C Model"..? We talk about it. Early Bremont..? We talk about it. The best thing about this hobby- as we often point out- is the fact that so many cool people are involved. Matt came away from this one feeling grateful to have made a new friend. We think you'll feel the same way. Thanks for listening!

Ep.76- Gregg's Back! Matt Wins a Zodiac! And a Book About Tiki...
Gregg is back from the DR and we are good to go. Both of us have NEW WATCH ALERTS. We spend a bit of time mulling the rumors of more layoffs at a certain major watch blog, and basically just shoot the breeze catching up after 3 weeks without an episode (sorry about that). Also, Matt has a busted pipe, and NOT in a good way!! Actually, is there even a way for that to be good..? I guess maybe not, but whatever. Thanks for listening.

Ep.75- ODA's and IPA's with Cody from Anti Watch Watch Club
Making new friends is the best part of being in the "community", and Matt definitely made a new friend during the recording of this episode. Matt is joined by Cody Fite, former SF soldier and current watch geek, and one of the honchos at Anti Watch Watch Club. We chop it up about big IPA beers, raising money for first responder training, and why Tudor's killer new FXD isn't METAS certified. We reach no conclusions, but the chat is pretty cool anyway. Thanks for listening!

Ep.74- "ArrrrTellYay": Sizing Up Tudor's FXD, Breaking Down Oris' Artelier S
It's been a while, yeah? Pull up a chair and join us as we catch up after a month off of recording. Matt's got an NWA (Tudor's FXD Black/ "Navy") to talk about, and we both go over our impressions of the new Oris Artelier S "Forrest Green" variant. Gregg's got a film recommendation for you, and Matt reminds everyone to try to stay on an even keel in a time of turmoil and bad news. Thanks for listening!

Ep.73- Swatch x Blancpain, and the Loss of The Margaritaville Man; Plus Our Ideas for More Collabs
Okay, okay... yes, every pod and blog is going to talk about this, and we're no different. (Actually, we ARE a bit different) Now that the actual design has been revealed, we share our thoughts on the latest monster watch collaboration, and take it a step further by nominating some brands/models from OUTSIDE Swatch Group for potential future mashups. Sure, they'll probably never do any of our suggested collabs, but let's be honest... five years ago did ANY of us see the MoonSwatch coming? Never say never, amirite?! This, some fun rec's, and our salute to the Parrothead-in-chief, Jimmy Buffett. We hope he's sipping margs and enjoying his cheeseburgers in paradise. Thanks for listening.

Ep.72- Rolex Did WHAT?!!??
This is a quick catch up episode. We chat about some recent episodes, as well as the new "Thousand Dollar Timex". Even so, we focused mainly on the shocker news of the moment- namely the announcement that Rolex is set to acquire luxury retailer Bucherer. ( Note- Despite our assumptions to the contrary, it seems as if the watch brand Carl F. Bucherer is also part of the acquisition. ) What will this mean for smaller AD's, other brands sold by Bucherer stores, and the state of the CPO program? We pretend to know, and gamely speculate like mad in this one!! Time will tell how things shake out. In the meantime, thanks for listening.

Ep.71- Wesley Smith Likes Brunellos; IWC, Cocktails, and Crewnecks with the Founder of STANDARD H
Matt has been a fan and customer of STANDARD H for a few years now. Wesley Smith is the man behind the brand, and he's DEFINITELY a watch dude, so we were stoked to sit down with him at one of the oldest and coolest drinking venues in the San Gabriel Valley. We discussed everything from his wine preferences, why watch hobbyists make the best apparel enthusiasts( okay... I'm making that up, but...), the heavy lifts in a small business, and his idea for a "million dollar road trip". Listen to the end: Wesley drops an awesome promo code for savings on his upcoming Fall assortment ( is that the right word, Wesley..?). This was a fun one! Thanks for listening.

Ep. 70- Ogopogos and Dopplegängers: Wrist Body Doubles for Rolex and Grand Seiko and... Mr. Jones??
Gregg and Matt met live at Ogopogo Brewing in San Gabriel to record their installment of the WatchPodCollective "Doppelgänger" series. (the WatchPodCollective is the unofficial consortium of pods consisting of "Wrist Cheese Radio", "SOTP", and "Whiskey and Watches", FYI...) The idea here is that we each imagine alternatives for actual stalwarts in our individual respective watch collections, based on aesthetics and use-case. It's a fun thought experiment, and we bet that most of you have done this in your head at one point or another. Thanks for listening!!

Ep. 69- Defunct Brands, Forstner Bands, and the "Magnum PI Vibe Challenge"
"The king is dead! Long live the king!"---------When we heard the news of Anchor Brewing (Anchor is the oldest brewing operation in California) stopping operations, we were stunned. Anchor Steam Beer is a favorite for many, including us. We're going to miss this brand. It made us think that it might be fun to reflect on other classic brands and companies that have died out, gone dormant, or changed so much that they are essentially unrecognizable. We discuss Universal Geneve watches, Schlitz beer, Saturn Cars, Pan Am Airways, and more. There's a bit of chat about the burgeoning "Magnum PI Vibe Challenge", and an update on Forstner Bands' in-for-review bullet bracelet. Thanks for listening!

This episode sees Matt joined by "Fratello On Air" stalwart Balazs Ferenczi. We've had Mike Stockton on a few times, so it seemed only right to ask Balazs to join us to chat about our mutual "Magnum PI" fandom, his enthusiasm for NBA basketball, and vintage watches. We discuss the recent releases from Omega, naturally, and also touch on the third rail of watch commentary: auction shenanigans. Balazs is a cool and very approachable (and knowledgeable) guy.

Ep. 67- New Rolex Daytona, Forstner Bands Options, And The Clock Is Ticking On A Certain Omega
If you own an Omega Speedmaster (or a Seamaster, or a Tudor diver, or...) then you are probably familiar with Forstner Bands. Forstner makes a variety of high quality aftermarket steel bracelets- some of which are inspired by classic vintage bracelet designs- for a wide range of sport watches. In this episode, we share some first impressions of a set of Forstner Bands bracelets sent in for review (spoiler alert: they're rad!) and photography. We also debrief the 100th running of the LeMans 24hr race, and chat about the new Daytona Cosmograph that Rolex produced to commemorate the event. Finally, Gregg has a new watch alert that might interest the guys from the "Whiskey and Watches Podcast"!

Zac teases an upcoming watch collab, and we learn that he's got a good head for fine spirits, too!

In this episode, Matt is on a solo mission ( a commando mission??) to chat with Adam, aka @commandosundials , who joins all the way from the West of Scotland. Adam has a uniquely cool feed that draws equally on his love for legit tool watches and his service in the Royal Marines. His feed has an undeniably cool aesthetic feel, made all the better by the authenticity and poignancy of his life experience. This one is a bonus episode, of sorts, since we usually drop every other week. Enjoy!

Ep. 64- The James Bond Cocktail Conundrum: Bond Booze and Trilobe Reviews
We are a "watches and cocktails" podcast, and in this episode we get back to our boozy roots by exploring the idea of alternatives to James Bond's signature vodka martini (shaken, not stirred). After all, the "watch community" routinely argues about which timepiece- or which watch brand- Bond should wear, so why NOT argue about his choice of beverage? We've solicited input from previous guests, friends of the pod, and subject matter experts to arrive at a series of fun suggestions. If you're a fan of 007, give this one a listen!

Ep. 63- Agave Adventures with Cameron Weiss: Watches, Land Rovers and Rustic Agave in Mexico
Cameron Weiss is an American watch maker- formerly of AP and Vacheron Constantin- and currently the owner of Weiss Watch Company in Nashville, TN. In the runup to recording, we discovered that cohost Matt had recently acquired a Weiss "Agave dial" LE, and that Cameron had recently acquired an old Defender with a very cool backstory. We thought it'd be a great time to catch up with Cameron ( he'd been with us before, on episode 11 ) to debrief Matt's new watch and Cam's recent overlanding adventures in Sonora Mexico. We also managed to learn more about a whole class of agave spirits that are unknown to many outside of rural Mexico. This is a fun one! Thanks for listening.

[Jon is a retired senior NCO from the United States Marine Corps, and an avid historical WWII Airborne reenactor] In this episode, Jon shares his passion for collecting gear, clothing, and swag in the arena of historic militaria. Like his beloved Marine Corps, Jon's watch collection is small, but mighty (seriously) and you can bet that we talk about it. Thanks for listening!

After a 4 episode run of great guests ( Asha Wagner, @horology411, James Stacey, and the Formex guys ), it was time to sit down for a bit and just catch up on new watches, general goings-on, and our latest review piece- the Norqain Freedom GMT. The Moonshine MoonSwatch is mentioned, as is a new book on industrial espionage in the early days of American watchmaking. We had a few technology gremlins to deal with, but it all come good in the end. Thanks for listening!

Ep.59- The Formex Formula: GMT's, Meteorites, and Watchdom's Greatest Deployants
In this episode, we sit down with Raphael and Markus of Swiss indie brand Formex. We were able to go hands-on with several of their core models recently (thank you, Markus!)- including their meteorite-dialed "Essence Space Rock" LE- and came away very impressed. The brand's designs are super tech-forward, and the guys gave us the "soup to nuts" rundown on how the brand works its magic with a cutting edge design language. These are genuinely good dudes, and the best part of the whole experience- aside from the fantastic watches- is the fact that we discovered that Raphael and Matt are kindred spirits at the grill/BBQ. It's a fun one... check it out!

Wow!! Okay, let's start by saying that we were stoked to be joined by Spence from the "Whiskey and Watches Podcast" AND Hodinkee heavyweight and watch pod pioneer, James Stacey. This episode is nominally a Formula One season preview, but we ended up covering WAAAYYYY more ground than that. The episode is front-loaded with watch chat, including a bit on all of our thoughts on the new Sinn T50, among other things. This one goes long, so pour a good beer- or maybe mix a cocktail- sit back, and enjoy.

Last year, Chase brought the heat with a minor dissertation on case materials- from precious metals to titanium, ceramics, and everything in between. In this episode, we're talking about dials. We chat about materials, treatments, index options, the works! Burlwood Rolex Day-Date? We've got it. Ceramic Seamasters? Check. Grab a beer or cocktail and sit a spell; this one is a bit longer than average and covers a lot of ground. Thanks for listening.

Okay. We knew that Captain Asha Wagner would be a great guest to talk watches, but we didn't realize how totally dialed-in she'd be on cocktails and craft spirits! We sat down for a late night sip with Asha- whose "@wildlander6" is one of the best adventure watch follows available- and talked about good booze, fire fighting, and her latest pickup. By the end of our chat, both of us wanted to take a road trip to Oakland to check out the food and bar scene. Oh, and did you know she has a thing for MB&F..? Thanks for listening.

Over the past month or so, we've had long term access to a pair of mother of pearl Aquis 36mm (36.5, actually) divers. We had the benefit of plenty of wrist time with both, as did our respective spouses, and today we share our thoughts.

Ep. 53- Watches x Philanthropy = Oris : SOTP Chats With VJ Geronimo
This is a good one, folks! We are joined by VJ Geronimo ( head of Oris in North America ) to talk about the role of watches in philanthropy, and the value of doing good. Oris is a leader in humanitarian and environmental social responsibility, and 2022 saw the release of Oris watches that support their pursuits in both of these philanthropic arenas: the "Wings of Hope" LE as well as the Aquis "New York Harbor" LE. Both of these pieces are pretty fantastic, in our humble opinion(s). We also discuss the brand's outreach and accessibility efforts, VJ's newfound appreciation for good brown booze, and our desperate desire for more Oris models in precious metals! We think you'll enjoy this one. Thanks for listening...

Wow. This is a special episode for all of our fellow #avgeeks (okay... all of *MY* fellow avgeeks, lol). We are joined by CDR Vincent "Jell-o" Aiello, retired US Navy F/A-18 pilot and real-life TOPGUN instructor. "Jell-o" will also be known to some of you as the host and creator of "The Fighter Pilot Podcast", one of the coolest aviation pods around. Vincent isn't a watch guy, and he doesn't pretend to be. Still, we DO talk a bit about watches and aviation timekeeping. Mainly though, we stick to stuff like cars, fly fishing, his love of a good IPA, and the changes coming to FPP. If you are into cars, watches, aviation, and DON'T listen to "The Fighter Pilot Podcast", this is your wakeup call. Thanks for listening.

Ep. 48- Bausele x US Army = Watches Assembled by Vets
This episode features Arron and Jamal from Bausele Watches, who join us for an impromptu happy hour discussion on a series of upcoming watches from the Oz-based brand. We had the opportunity to preview the watches- some of which will remain under embargo for several more months- and both of us came away impressed with the designs (the dial treatments are pretty bonkers!). The twist on these watches is this- the IP on these designs comes with the official blessing of the Department of the Army here in the US. This is not often bestowed, and it involves Bausele's commitment to incorporate military veteran watchmakers in the design and assembly process. Veterans Day is almost upon us, and it seemed like a great time to highlight this aspect of Bausele's brand story.

We also share thoughts on the new Tudor Pelagos 39. The main event is the chat we have over a pair of amazing, but perhaps overlooked, pieces from the Oris stable. The Big Crown ProPilot GMT "Rega Fleet" LE is fantastic, and the Rectangular has the chops to be a modern classic. It's an ideal "his and hers" shared watch, and tbh, we'd LOVE to see it executed in gold or silver! Check it out and thanks for listening.

In this episode, we are joined by none other than Serge, aka @thewristplorer. Serge is a master of contextualizing watches through the examination of period photos of historical events and people, where watches are worn prominently by the photo subjects. His feed features images depicting conflict history, political figures, the space race, Formula 1, classic action films... you name it and Serge has posted it. Serge's content tends to be quite Seiko-heavy, and we are definitely okay with that! His wrist check on this episode was pretty epic, actually. We talk about his feed, sure, but the REAL subject of this chat is Serge's unbridled curiosity about watches in history. That deep-seated curiosity is surely the foundation of his amazing work.

"SuperDoc", rjkama, Dr. Kamatovic... it doesn't matter *how* you know him. What's important is that you probably DO know him. RJ Kamatovic is something of a force of nature. If you're into fitness, watch collecting, spirits, or the other forms of "bon vivantery" that we discuss here, then there's a good chance you've crossed paths with RJ's feed. Is RJ an influencer? That's the first question we ask... and RJ's answer is pretty frank. We also chat about tequila (versus scotch, which is RJ's usual playground), Seiko-Grand Seiko branding identity confusion, and the fact that Breitling seems to be just 1 halo piece away from true greatness. And don't get him started on the fact that Breguet seems to be highly undervalued!! "Doc" is an educated, cultured dude, and a great conversationalist.

In this one, Gregg is out of pocket and we are joined by guest cohost and meme lord extraordinaire, Brodinkee! We thought it might be fun to rank the watch collections of some of the most well-known celebrity chefs, since Brodinkee is a chef himself. Emeril, Florence, Flay, Fieri (and more) all get the "wrist game" once-over. We also take a look at a lesser-known element of Blancpain's brand enthusiasm and support for fine culinary endeavors. The episode begins with a previously-recorded intro segment (with Gregg) that serves to tee up the rest of the show, and to answer a very difficult question from Rick over at the "A Blog to Watch Podcast".

This is another cooperative episode between the members of what we're loosely calling "The WatchPod Alliance" (including us, "Wrist Cheese Radio", and "The Whiskey and Watches Podcast") where we will be serving up the first shot in a round-robin sequence of shows. Each pod participant has chosen to select a group of 3-5 watches from one of the past 5 or 6 decades- the sixties, seventies, eighties, and so on. Gregg picked the early 2000's, and Matt has taken the 1990's. The watch choices may or may not surprise you, but they probably *WILL* remind you how cool some of the older, non-hyped pieces really are, even from the big brands. We discuss and defend our choices over some great Belgian beer, and the whole thing begins with an unexpected NWA announcement from Gregg.

Ep. 35- We Each Pick a Trio of Watches for $10k, and We Review the Zodiac Super Sea Wolf 53
We open this episode with our first "in for review" breakdown of a watch that we both happen to love- the Zodiac Super Sea Wolf 53. Zodiac was there at the dawn of the dive watch era, along with Blancpain and Rolex, and they acquit themselves well with this watch! After that, the bulk of our chat today is based on the age-old thought exercise: if you had $10k USD, how would you allocate the funds to purchase a 3 watch lineup..? Yes, every pod has addressed this sort of question, but let's face it, the choices constantly change with our tastes and the new options that continuously come to market. Gregg's choices are... surprising. Check it out, and thanks for listening!

Ep. 34- "Chase K & Montrachet"- @horology411 breaks down the S&G Rolex Explorer and gold Day-Date
It's our First Anniversary show, and who better to join us than Chase K. Chase- aka "@horology411"- has been a fixture in the Los Angeles watch scene (and the local watch industry, tbh) for years. In addition to being an avid collector, Chase maintains an eponymous website where he sells pre-owned pieces. He was also a pioneer in the watch podcast world, as cohost of the "On Time Podcast" back in the mid Twenty-Teens. In this episode, we discuss one of Chase's passions, namely, precious metals in watches. We chat about gold, obviously... but also silver, platinum, bronze and other non-traditional materials and metals. We cover all of this while downing a bottle of excellent white Burgundy! This episode is a long one, recorded live at Casa Del Tiempo Y Tequila. There's a bit of, uh... "atmosphere" in this one, but it just adds character! Thanks for listening.

Ep. 33-Nick from DC Vintage Watches, and the Rise of Bruce Lee!
We're discussing vintage Seiko and aged tequila this week, with our guest Nick from DC Vintage Watches. Nick is no stranger to podcasts, and you may have heard him on "Whiskey and Watches Podcast" with our pal Brodinkee. For years now, Nick has been the vintage Seiko hookup for serious Seiko collectors, including a number of entertainment heavyweights, including Daniel Dae Kim and Randall Park. We chat about Seiko's back catalog, which is turning out to be a goldmine of cool pieces, especially for the type of collector who appreciates a sports watch with a different vibe vs. the usual suspects from Swiss giants like Rolex and Omega. We also hit on the topic of cool old military watches, and even share a few words about a certain Swatch x Omega collab. Perhaps you've heard of it? Check it out and thanks for listening!

This is a short one. I even skipped the intro music on the edit! We got together live, to drink good beer and record a quick-and-dirty segment to talk about the start of the 2022 Formula 1 season. Speaking of F1... Matt appeared as a guest with the "Whiskey and Watches Podcast" to talk about the new rules, predictions, and the popularity of the Netflix series, "Drive to Survive". Their episode is live, so please check it out.

Ep. 31- OMG Omega! New AT's, Ultra Deep Divers, and More.
We'd been expecting some news from Omega, and boy did they deliver! On a recording day, no less. We share first impressions of the new Planet Ocean Ultra Deep, the Moonshine Gold Speedy, the hand wound Speedmaster '57 (Matt's favorite), and the rest. Most of these watches are blazing their own design path, and enjoy their own place in the hobby, but there's one that invites the inevitable Rolex comparison (spoiler alert: we like it at least as much as the Rolex). We also chat a bit about a recent piece in Hodinkee, and come to the conclusion that for once, the comments section is just as illustrative as the actual article. This one is pretty straight forward. Pour a drink and have a listen!

Ep. 30: Seiko "Black Series", Sinn EZM Goodness, and New vs Olde Rolex Rootbeer GMT
Feldmar Watches and Seiko let us have a peek at the upcoming Seiko "Black Series" dive watches, and we break down the lineup. Plus, Matt has got it BAD for the new Sinn EZM 13.1. Also, we disagree (for about 3 seconds) on the relative merits of old vs new Rolex GMT Root Beer options. Finally... we come back to the issue of negativity in the hobby. We get it. It's not easy, what with the hype train, the investors/speculators, and the crazy pricing. With that in mind, we offer a few words of advice on how to move on and take back a bit of the fun. The GTG world is poised to come back, and we suggest taking full advantage in order to find new people, places, brands, and watch experiences that are still unspoiled. Thanks for listening.

We also catch up on the state of her collection- some of which is shared with her partner (a great strategy!)- and get her take on the state of the watch hobby from the perspective of a younger watch enthusiast. This was a fun discussion that serves to remind us about the importance of buying and collecting the watches that you like, and not the stuff being peddled by the hyper merchants! Check it out, and thanks for listening.

Ep. 28: The Old "One Watch" Question, Asked Two Ways (JLC vs Rolex vs GS vs ... Sinn?!?)
Well. We did it. We finally addressed the most asked question in WISdom: if you could only have 1 watch, which would you choose? We put a bit of a spin on the question by asking a second, related question: assuming you could keep everything you currently have, what single *additional* watch would you select, if that additional watch was to be the LAST watch you'd ever be able to add to your collection..? It probably changes your answer, doesn't it? We cover some heavyweight options- stalwarts from JLC, gorgeous pieces from Grand Seiko, and killer steel sports models from the Crown are all mentioned. But you might be surprised by the final picks. Thanks for listening!

Ep. 27: Any Port in a Storm?? (or, learning to love a hype-free life w/o Rolex)
Is this the "winter of our discontent"? If you're anything like us, you are painfully aware of the general negativity that seems to have been creeping into parts of the watch hobby in recent years. (It doesn't seem to be unique to the watch hobby, either... but we digress.) Lately there's been an onslaught of hype, clout-seeking, and flexing. And that doesn't even include the surreal pricing and availability situation surrounding certain blue chip brands. Watches that were easily acquired- albeit with a bit of saving up- a few years ago are now pretty much unobtainium for the average enthusiast. It can be a bummer, right? In this episode, we offer up suggestions for those among us who want to support brands that won't leave one feeling like a jerk, or that one has compromised in any way. We hit upon the usual suspects (Oris, Omega), as well as various micro brands. We also have suggestions for truly great brands that are credible, attainable alternatives to the crown and The Trinity (B…

Episode 26: 2021 Reflections and Shout-Out-a-thon
This is basically our "sign off" show to close out 2021, our first year of podcasting. Gregg found a beer he loves, Matt spills his guts on his 2021 watch regrets, and without actually intending to, we managed to shout out practically every person in our horological (and boozalogical) orbits. In the end, we want to express our thanks for the inspiration, assistance, and advice from veteran podcasts- Whiskey & Watches, TOTP, The Grey Nato, Tenn and Two, and even the Ricks from Glasgow, among others. We've been fortunate to have have had literally too many cool guests to list in this limited space, and we're grateful to all of them. We hope it goes without saying that we're grateful to all of those who've listened to the pod and provided suggestions, feedback, and good vibes along the way. Here's to all of you!

Dan was in attendance at Bremont's Longitude/ENG movement launch, so we get the details on that and speculate a bit on where the new movement will make its next appearance in their lineup. We also have a bit of an update on 2021's SOTC, and share a round-robin of gift ideas for watch nerds and fans of the adult beverage scene.

Episode 24: Beer, MicroBrands, and Rolex Apathy w/ Booze Retailer David Driscoll
In this episode, we sit down over a beer (or two) with a particularly intriguing character. David Driscoll is one of those brave souls who has successfully slipped free of the limitations of the horological HypeTrain, and found happiness collecting some of the coolest micro brands out there. David is also a bit of a legend in the high-end spirits retail scene in Los Angeles, working with major outlets and serving as a consultant for celebrity-owned booze brands. It's a fascinating discussion that leads us to ponder the frustrating parallels between the Rolex marketplace (or AP, or Patek, or...)and that of "desirable" allocated spirits (we're looking at *you*, Pappy... lol). No punches pulled in this one, and there are definitely a few "F Bombs". Have fun with it. We did!

Zakir breaks down the origin story of the brand, walks us through the inspiration for the naming of his Legacy chronograph, and tells us about his own watch collecting journey. This is an interesting discussion that gives some insight about the mind and the vision behind an up-and-coming microbrand, and all the ups and downs of starting a new brand via crowdfunding. (NOTE- There was a neighboring group of ladies who had a lot of fun and dropped a few naughty words. lol. You've been warned!) Thanks for listening!

Gregg also gives us a recap of his visit to LAMicroLux, a watch fair recently held here in Los Angeles. This event was focused on micro and small brands, including Norqain, Bausele, Laco, Haim, and others. We chat about the value a good micro brand can offer, and ponder the question of how a micro brand should be classified. Neither of us are big into the micro scene, but after this event we wonder if we haven't been missing out on a good thing..? Check it out, and thanks for listening!

Episode 21: Brodinkee - The Secret Life of a Meme Assassin
It was difficult to decide on a title for this episode. Brodinkee suggested "Spirit of Thyme". Matt initially wanted something like "Knives Out WIth the Sharpest Wit in WISdom". Both options make oblique reference to a not-too-well-known aspect of Bro's daily life. While his profession has been a bit of an open secret to date, we get right to the truth of that topic and many others, including the fact that Brodinkee and Matt have a weirdly overlapping collection of watches. This was a truly great conversation, and we think you're going to love it. Thanks for listening!

We get a lot of good feedback on these shared episodes. Honestly, it's a big part of why we started a podcast in the first place... we missed the live GTG atmosphere, and we figured you all did, too. Chase (Horology411) joins us with a pair of bonkers Universal Geneve watches that look VERY MUCH like a certain steel sports icon from Patek Philippe, Matt finds religion on Lorier, and we all learn a new way to pronounce Seiko: "SayKeeOh"!

There's a lot more that we could write to tease this episode(Bremont, Formula 1, egalitarianism in the hobby etc), but why bother..? We all know that Heaton *GETS IT* in way that few others do. The bottom line is that we cover a lot of ground in a short time. This is a good one. For real. Give it a listen.
